Lol. Its been barely two weeks when Master Zhu and his student Xian debutted with their lip-sync version of The Eye of the Tiger. But the repressed artists in them cannot hold on enough not to shoot another vid. And as their own journey to immortality continues, in their search for the true powers of ZhuXian (Shinngg!), here they are again in ZhuXian: Episode 1, with another bunch of extra artists at the side, haha!

Shedding their talents in the video as well are e-Games CM Jes, CGM Hanya and ZhuXian CM Mei Yan. :3

And these ZhuXian videos arent very much scripted, I must say. Once, I overheard Cabal CM Psybot saying that the videos were taken because wla lng napagtripan lng. hehe

Anyway, just tune in for Zhu Xian Episode II. :D

Who knows, I just might have my own shining moment (or something like that, haha!) .

At times I would wander in the vastness of nowhere in search of cooler things to experience. A walk in a park or in a unique, colorful place, is always a refreshing thing to do, a powerful destress. This is fairly essential, I must admit, in the life of a Game Master, as a weekly trip to somewhere nice and comfy could mean sheer moments of concentration and purification ( and I swear I was badly in need of some ).

But like always, doing the same thing and going to the same place over and over again is boringness at its best (lol), and boringness just dont run my life :P .  And so I’ve decided, that this time, I’ll stroll the world with a companion , and I literally thanked heavens, for I think I’ve just met the coolest pet of my life, haha!

Meet Carlo. The cutest Ranny Bear you will ever find.

Born in the New World where everything is magical and pure, cutesy carlo sprang forth into existence in a  wonderful fashion, but his origin was too sacred that even I, his master, cannot publicly disclose. =P

Nevertheless, he deserves a normal life, notwithstanding the unusual circumstances that surround his birth. At one point, the world is in dire need of the cuteness that abound in this creature, and so ive decided that the world should know of his existence, and  took him for a walk in a place he would most probably enjoy – in the verdant glades of the Mystic Peak Campus.

There always are a lot of things going on around e-Games, be it in-game, in the forums, or even in the e-Games office, and so discussions about everything e-games simply never end.

Some fast and random updates on several things:

Just last Saturday, the the Girl Gamers’ Meeting was held right here at our office in Makati.

Altogether with CMJes, GMFaiga and GMPhryzea: the Girl Gamers are on the loose!

In the focus group discussion, some of the concerns of our girl gamers were voiced out, while the community game masters, together with CM Aethrin and e-Games CM Jes clarified some of these issues and added some updates on the events and happenings in our games. Composing most of the attendees are Ran, Cabal and Granado Espada players.

Our girl gamers in the focus group discussion

One of the most significant agenda of the FGD was to hear about what they have to say about our games and about themselves – their playing style, their various gaming preferences and most importantly, their suggestions for the improvement of our games.

And of course, no e-Games event is held without freebies. The girl gamers who have sacrificed their precious rest days were given cd installers, posters and some cool in-game items. Here’s a pic with the CGMs happily distributing some give-aways:

And again, they’ve asked for the GM Signatures

We would be conducting FGDs again in the future, so better watch out for the announcements.

More e-games updates, after the break.

In the final clash between the top two Ran teams in the world, the whole of SMX Convention Center stood watching in gleeful excitement as Team Philippines and Team Malaysia battled it out in the championships match.

And then it began. Team Pinas took out the first win in the best-of-five championships match, energizing the crowd the very instant.

And then the second match followed. In a swift 30-second* battle , the flawless strategy that took Team PH to their current spot proved fatal, pwning the four competitors dead in the ground, ensuring them a very nice lead, and reinforcing the wild cheers which dominated the hall.

The third match so ensued with too much anticipation of Team PH’s victory, but ended up otherwise. The representatives from Malaysia certainly did not leave their precious land unprepared – they weren’t here for vacation anyway, they were here for an intense fight.

And quite surely, for their second straight victory (in the fourth match), they showed the whole spectators and all of the Philippine Ran community that Team Malaysia is a force to be reckoned with. They are after all, the Assassin GRGL team, both feared and respected in the realm of Ran Online Malaysia. Heinous assassins, in their very own rights.

So the championship battle went 2-2.

All for the glory of this

The fifth and final match occured therefore. And in the battle that decided everything, hearts stopped and breathings paused. Philippines had the first casualty, but they were able to knockdown one of the enemies to safely bring the match into three against three. And so, the final match took its course…

But then, it was fated. With the final blows delivered, the last spells casted… with the ultimate swing of the sword, and with that winning assault of the arrow, team Philippines rose triumphant, sending all into a marvelous frenzy for a well-earned victory.

Time for some updates in Granado Espada.

One of the features that comes up with V2.9 is a new buddy system for all the Granado Espada players out there. The new feature basically allows two families to act somewhat cooperatively for one family to gain EXP points and the other to gain Reputation points, which is sort of like the currency points for some of the events in the New World. The mechanics are quite simple and easy to understand. If you want to read the background story and the full mechanics, follow this link:

[V2.9 Feature] The Secret Guard

Been watching too much Moymoy Palaboy in youtube, eh?

The two masters of lip synching certainly had their status rocketing into full-scale, country-wide popularity as GMA-7’s top-rated comedy show Bubble Gang, recognized their hilarious talent and put their infamous youtube videos into tv.

But Errr, they’re not the ones taking the spotlight this time :P but two new aspiring artists who formulated their own concept : doing the lip synching while office-roaming!

And hey, they have some additional performers and stunts on the side too! haha

But enough with ados,

From the historical land of China, I bring to you Master Zhu and his student Xian, in their debut single The Eye of the Tiger- Zhu Xian Online Philippines!

Hey Master Zhu, where’s part two?

Whew!

After all those days of choosing which theme to change into, ive finally decided to use the Connections theme to give the Ancient Observer a fresh new look. The choice wasnt easy. Somehow I have been used to the astounding effect of the Chaotic Soul theme, and my widgets and other sidebar stuffs were all suited to the said theme. However, I guess I have to somehow change into something lighter, that if I look into my blog for sometime, the mere glance of it wont burden me or take the willingness to think and write out of me.

I needed to rearrange and remove some of the widgets in the sidebar as well, to make the blog look more neat.

Oh well, nothing too fancy ’bout this post though, just wanted to say hello to my new theme. :D

So there you are, I give you – the new Ancient Observer! 

Hope you could still find some time to read my posts. And please do keep those replies coming.

Thanks!

We at e-Games all know how the support you have given to Team Pilipinas in the recently concluded Ran Global Tournament helped a lot, and to reward the community’s efforts, we give you the nonstop 3x Exp boost for all servers from October 7 (Monday) up to October 12 (Sunday).

The Fog of War and the Astig Video at the background. Congrats Team Pinas!

Happy e-Gaming!
