The downloads are out, and you can get them now. IAH has only posted 1 part of the 6 files, but if you have a little bit of common sense, you’d figure out you can hammer the site for the rest of the downloads. I’m currently download part 2 and 3 already, and the speed is love.

Since my downloads are capped at 700kbs, downloading 2 at the time means their speed is split. =( If you get the Service Unavaliable message, just keep refreshing the site. If you have a G15 keyboard, here’s what I did:

Macro F5 (short delay) enter (short delay) and set on auto repeat. It will keep refreshing for you until it downloads. >D Nifty eh?

For those who want a program to help refresh the download page, download ReloadEvery, a plugin for Firefox browsers.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/115

After installing it on your Firefox, restart your Firefox. On the Service Unavailable page, right-click and select Reload Every.
Go to Custom, and set 1 second. Then select Enable. It will keep refreshing the page until you get the download pop up. Remember to disable it.

One good thing about this plugin is that while refreshing that tab, you can surf other sites.

Okay, Hrin has kindly requested for more Yakisoba warriors to partake her quest to babysit kids.

Currently Voyage, Luciora and Sinistral have offered to join her party and I’m deciding to extend this to the rest of the Yakisoba team to join this outing. It will be held on the 10th of May 2007, Thursday from 11am-6pm. Pssst. This is your last chance in obtaining a 2 day pre-OBT pass. But of course, you are expected to serve with a heart!

We’ll also be having a Guild Dinner at around 6pm too. I will join you guys for the dinner because I have something to attend to on that day. Pantheon will also be coming for the dinner, if i recall correctly.

Send Hrin an email with your name and mobile number if you want to join.

Let’s go pk some kids!

Oh and btw, it’s finally the 1st of May! The downloads should be up in a couple of hours time. I’m assuming somewhere between 10am-12noon.

Okay, I have finalized a couple of Yakisoba plans and structures, and here it is. This notice is for all former Yakisoba members, as well as players who are interested in joining Yakisoba.

Yakisoba will be recreated in OBT, and we will still be known as Yakisoba. I will create it as soon as I farm 200 family points. While the names of the servers are still not known at the moment, we will be playing on the 1st main server. Should there be separate servers for PVP/carebear, we will be in the PVP server, no questions asked.

Former CBT Yakisoba members can request immediate entrance to Yakisoba as soon as you verify yourself. If I cannot remember you for the love of God, then I am so sorry, you will not be permitted into it. Just kidding. All members as usual, are required to pay the usual 5,000 vis entrance fee. However, as a benefit to existing members, you may defer your entrance fee until you have sufficient money. But please don’t make me hunt you down for the fee again, like in CBT.

The Yakisoba forums will be wiped as well. The confirmed wipe date for our guild forum will be on the 14th of May. If there are important posts, pictures of fel-chan, guides, etc that you wish to keep, please back them up. I will not back up anything. As soon as the forum is wipe, you may register yourself again. However, please register your forum nickname as the same nickname as your family in game. This is because when we grow to 100 members, we will have a difficult time knowing who’s who. As soon as I see your registration, I will validate your account and you will be able to enter the private sections of the forums, as usual.

New players who are interested in joining Yakisoba, look out for our in-game announcements. We will also post recruitment notices on this site as well as the GE forum. At the moment, we have not finalize our recruitment requirements but you can be sure that we will have one of the most demanding level entry requirement. Our level entry requirement will be capped according to the average of our member’s level. Thus it will constantly increase itself until a certain level. I daresay our future requirements would be at least level 72. Do note that we have also have a entry fee of 5,000 vis. This will go into the guild treasury where it will be used to pay for guild level increments as well as war declaration letters.

That will be all for now.

3 more day before the client is available for download! I’ll see those some of you on the 15th and the rest on the 17th. Cheers, stay healthy and sleep more. When GE starts, it’s time for the great leveling spree. I hope everyone’s pumped up to go nuts, because Yakisoba is so going to pwn the server!

Let’s paint Yakisoba all over the world map!

5 days to the Download release of the new v2.0 client.
20 days for those who won 2 day early pre-OBT Passes.
22 days to the launch of pre-OBT.

I’ll start posting more guild-related news at a later stage, but I can assure everyone that Yakisoba will be back in full force. Heck, I have 3 months of holiday starting next week. Muhahahahaha.

It’s time to go CAGE-MODE.

Blatently ripped from the sgGE site:

Just a quick update for you guys! Great News – we are running on schedule for the launch of Pre-Open Beta on 17^th May 2007, Thursday. Granado Espada V2.0’s Pre-Open Beta Test (POBT) Client will be available for download on the web from 1^st May 2007, Tuesday, onwards. Mirror sites for the client will be listed in the ‘Downloads’ section on 1^st May 2007, Tuesday.

HOOOOZZZAAAAH. Get ready to spam the download server.

Oh and IAH finally got rid of their old ugly forum and got a damn sweet looking one. Login using your IAH passport and start making Yakisoba’s presence known! In a good way of course.

Click here to watch the video
(for some reason, I can’t seem to embed youtube videos on this site)

Just in case any of you still have not finalized your builds, perhaps this video would help your with your decision (or might even confuse you futher, hahaha). Note the insane number of Levi Wizards used. I suppose in the context of GVG, Wizards and Warlocks are mostly used, as compared to the usual PVP setup.

EDIT: Aye, I fixed the wrong url thingy. But just in case anybody want to watch the GE MTV, the video can be found here

According to reliable sources *ahemyouknowholol* there would be 3 servers for the upcoming pre-OBT. 2 of which will be PVP based and the last one is a… CAREBEAR SERVER.

I’m happy they are setting up a carebear server because we should all join it…… just kidding. But really, I’m happy. That’s because all those sickening crying carebears can go to that server and can stop complaining about us.

So anyway, in case I fail to mention which server we are joining when GE starts, do keep in mind that Yakisoba will always be in the 1st server. I like playing server that is highly populated, a richer economy, etc etc.

Aye, it’s been ages since I updated this this site. The noodles are soggy and everything’s starting to ferment. Hrin’s been kicking me to update this so here I am.

So how is everyone? Even the participation level at the forums is beginning to die down. I suppose everyone’s busy with school, work, new games and all eh?

Coincidentally, today is the 17th of April, a month before OBT starts. Have you guys finalized your character builds, family names and all? Are you all ready to paint the entire map with Yakisoba on it?

Because…… NEXT MONTH, WE DINEEEE IN VESPANOLA!

Post up and let me know if you won an invite and I’ll update this list. Other Yakisoba members that have won but we are not sure of their account ID:

Cage.

Voyage also has another extra pass because he went for the Katong special school thingy that Hrin organized.

So in total we have: 10 pre-OBT passes.

These are pictures from the highest ranking faction of ダイヤモンド server, the ダイア faction. They are also top faction among all the other servers with a total of 895717 points. And they only have 67 members, compared to other factions with 80+ members.

After looking at these pictures and reading about them, I’m damn pumped up for version 2. Heck, I’m downloading v2 now so I can go play back my old account (I shouldn’t have deleted my jGE client, fuck) and go test those new features.

I think some of the original Yakisoba members are playing jGE now, if you wish, you are free to join us there. We’re on the 2nd server btw. If you don’t know how to register, you can try using this guide here. But it’s an old guide and I don’t know whether it still works for now.

Also, you must use Internet Explorer (yes I know IE sucks, but the damn koreans love it so much) for the registration and downloading of client.
