What we’re about

Hey all, I'm Tom, 39 years old, looking for more players (25+ years old preferred). We have 10 people and are playing Pantheon. Anyone that wants a preview of the game can join the discord, say hi, and then you can come hang during our weekly static group session for a bit while one of us screencasts to see how you like it. Even if you don't want to play the game you're welcome to hang in the discord and come to the meetups. I'm sure people will also play some games on the side together and we have a text channel for people to link up for that, we also have people that like boardgames.

We are open to switching MMOs down the road. We chose this one because it is fresh and several people interested had already played it a bit. It is an early access game that aims to be a modern successor to Everquest (which we also have lots of vets from).

We have a 6 player static group that play one night a week for a 2 hour session in discord voice/cam. There are a few outside the first static group looking to form a second static group that has their own session once a week.

The first static group usually plays Wed, Fri, Sat, Sun evening and we poll weekly to play when the most people can. If someone in the static can't make it we try to see if someone else in the guild can sub.

There is also a scheduled meet up every 2 weeks Sunday 5-7pm in the central San Diego area usually at a gastropub or place with pool/darts/arcade etc. We have played 4 sessions so far and 1 in person meet. Girls don't be shy, we have two female group members already and they'd love more female company!

Ideally the second static is filled with new members and we have both static groups near the same level that can possibly sub for each other if needed. People also have alts for times when they want to play outside the static group weekly playtimes.
We have people that have played Panth and new players, EQ, DAoC, WoW vets.

Here is the discord link please come check it out & say hi!

The reason we picked Pantheon is because 3 of us have already started playing before and already enjoy it, it's a fresh game, and it is a very social game where all group members have unique and important roles for the group to succeed so there is a lot of teamwork & camraderie! Beyond that there is also lots to talk about - different classes, zones, mobs (enemy NPCs), gear, crafting, new content & game systems etc... Some people describe Pantheon as the modern successor to Everquest 1 & 2 with some combat feelings from World of Warcraft and Vanguard. It is in early access right now, and has a development roadmap and active community. I've been playing since mid December with my cousin and had a lot of fun playing many different classes.

The idea for the group is something relaxed and casual, and something to look forward to as a nice easy way to be social & have camraderie. I'd like to have people that have some roots down in San Diego so there is more room for some long friendships to form over time.

The game and playtime are meant to be the hub & glue of the group. I'd like to have a group where friendships form and people meet up to hang out or play other games together outside the organized playtime.

I live in North Park and moved here last June and I've been familiar with it for a long time visiting friends here for years, and it is now home to me. It would be great if everyone lived within a 20 minute drive or something easy enough everyone can meet up at the diner get together when we want.

Here's my rap sheet to see if you feel something in common:

  • Right now I am playing Pantheon's Early Access with my cousin that lives in NY very casually and enjoying

In the past:

  • Everquest L60 Shaman during Velious
  • Dark of Age of Camelot once during the original L40 Troll Thane Midgard
  • second time private server during Covid mained Pac Healer Midgard & Bonedancer
  • Orignal WoW L30 Shaman
  • Tried Guild Wars 2, ESO, FFXI, BDO, couldn't get into them
  • I always like other Fantasy games like Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre etc.

I'm a pretty relaxed guy want the group to have a welcoming culture where everyone is just happy to hang. Outside games I'd say my personality is like half nerd, half jock, and some goth kid (anyone else have a Thursday or The Used phase?) on the inside. I fiddle around on guitar, watch some Latin American streamers to not totally forget the Spanish I've learned over the years. Intermediate surfer that hasn't surfed much lately, used to play basketball in high school, snowboarded a bit in college in Colorado, longboard skateboarding stuff like that. I've got a spotify playlist I've been building for years with 43 hours of songs of all types. I'd like to get into playing tennis more to keep in shape. I go for walks and to the cafe to read, been pretty low key easy going lately.

My top artists over years I have always come back to are The Smiths, Mac Miller, Smashing Pumpkins, The Cure, Nirvana, 311, Rebelution, At The Drive In, Modest Mouse, Interpol

Artists I've found lately (country kick recently it seems): Sam Barber, Zach Bryan, Gavin Adock, Treaty Oak Revival, Thundercat, Men I Trust

Lived in: Chicago, Orange County, Boulder, Denver, Santa Barbara, Houston, DC

Travelled to a dozen countries across Latin America, Asia, & Europe
