I've recently discovered the online sitcom The Guild (http://www.watchtheguild.com) and I found it so incredibly fun that I basically watched all three seasons in a row.

The series is about the life of Codex (played by Felicia Day, who also created the show) and her guild mates - all of avid and addicted online gamers. The viewers get to follow how they cope with such problems as sharing loot, enduring server maintenance, withstanding opposing guilds, dealing with infatuations with other guild members and of course - handling the constant intrusion of real life! Real life's not easy when there are small kids or dominant mothers that crave your attention :p

Albeit not an online gamer myself, I still find the jargon spot on and I absolutely think the show deserves its many awards.

Does anyone else follow it?


The Guild's music video - Do You Wanna Date My Avatar (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urNyg1ftMIU) - is definitely worth checking out!

I love The Guild too! :D

I don't play online games, but it makes me wish I did. Most of the time. ;)

In season 3, Valkerie from the Axis of Anarchy creates a website with humiliating photos of Bladezz, with "a font with serifs to really rub it in".

(How strangely familiar that seems to me :eek:)

It turns out the website actually exists. It's pretty well-done too :)
