Planned Trade Run Itinerary

As a guild we will be helping our members do large trade runs as you each work towards your personal in game goals. We will do our best to get everyone's runs in but currently we only have 1 trade ship so it will also revolve around Neo's personal schedule until our other two trade ships get built this week. I will update this list frequently and add dates and times once they're officially scheduled. Trade runs will also be announced 30 mins in advance in group chat and on mumble. If you're requesting a planned trade run please make sure you have the materials/packs ready and the labor to do it. Thank you!

To have a planned guild run scheduled for people to carry and help defend your packs just send me a mail in game with the following info:

• Your In Game Name
• Gold Run or Gilda Run
• Desired Location
• Secondary Location (If the first location is camped, we may need a fall back location for gold runs)
• # Of Packs
• Your Goal
• Best Time Range (in EST time please)
• Where Are Your Packs Located (So we know which port to depart from)

1. Donaga (Location: Freedich, # of Packs: 70, Goal: Marine Housing) - Needs to be rescheduled!
   
2. Lift (Location: Freedich, # of Packs: 25+, Goal: Marine Housing) - Needs to be rescheduled!

This. I like this.

Nith's Run is exactly 50 Packs. He and I are in the process of getting them all consolidated to one zone.

I'm about halfway to the 300 Gilda stars needed to buy a marine house (bungalow).

I am interested in making this guild access as well, for both alchemy and handicrafting.

Im also a late night / weekend player FYI. I will have my harpoon clipper tonight (bought with gold), so my next step is marine house, preferably next to Nith's.

Question: where is Nith planning his bungalow? Solzreed or Sandeep?

Anyway, not sure how many turn ins I'd need to get another 150. Is it 6 per pack?

Nalani, I'll pm you in game with the info you requested.

Sandeep. I believe Raymian is going to place there as well.

We're still working on trucking our 50 packs. We almost have them all in one place.

If you make the packs yourself and the rate is close to 130% and you turn in all the packs made... you get 4 gilda per pack. So if you need 150 gilda then you will need to make 38 packs (probably 40 just in case one or 2 get lost or people disconnect with them etc.)

Bummer I'll be at work maybe next time.

Is there any way we can coordinate a run to Austere for people who still need to get large farms? We tried it today with a few guildies but were ganked pretty quickly. I would love to get something larger coordinated so that anyone who still needs the farm can get it, Sephius said there were still plenty of people who need it.

Yes absolutely Gloriana. What time/day do you think would be best?

If we're doing normal trade run time (8pm ET) sometime after the already scheduled runs, then I would be available Fri the 10th, the weekend, Mon the 13th or Wed the 15th. I'm also happy to wait until there's a convenient time - I'm not in a huge hurry due to lack of land, but it would be nice to get it squared away in case something comes open or I actually make the $$ to buy a plot. :)

Alainn trade run to freedich for marine house. Need 200gilda stars so about 50 packs. Between 8and9pm would be best time.

Marine houses are the future. I say we prioritize getting one for anyone who is active and can use one.

Why do you say this? I've been debating what to request a Gilda run for

They're needed for alchemy and handicraft I believe.

Besides their normal utilities, they are something that nobody else has gone for yet. The marine house plots are mostly barren, but it will not stay like this for long.

I've been working on leveling alchemy (almost 20k) and would love to get on the list for a run to Freedrich so I can get a marine house. Any time after 7pm Cst works for me. It would be 40+ packs. Leaving from Marianople.

Welp I'm boned for normal houses, so I better throw my name in the hat. 300 Gilda is a bunch, though. I'd need quite a few. Better start plucking my ducks.

To get a trade run schedule Amorika just follow the instructions in the first post of this thread and send me the info via in game mail with all the questions I need answers to. Thanks :)

Done! Sorry, missed the in-game part!

Just wanted to give a huge thank you to the guild for the run on sunday. It was well done, thought out, and executed. I'll be bumping the recruitment thread on the main forums as well with another testimonial(sp?). You guys are the best!

For those who are working on alchemy and do not yet have an aquafarm, message me in-game and we'll see about getting you access to the bungalow (in Solz) for your farming needs.

Edit-- Just an FYI. If you are planning a large number of packs, I suggest diversifying your trade packs. Too many of the same type will cause the economy for that pack to drop faster. I made 4 or 5 different types of packs in advance and carted them to the pickup point a day or two in advance, and was able to get all maximum rewards.

You can still go with just 1 type, but if another green/friendly guild is doing the same pack, it will cause the reward to drop. (Check the vocation > trade info page to see current trend).

I would like to be placed on the list for the 2nd fishing boat which costs 250 gilda. Although it may be a little complicated to turn in packs as a trade ship owner :O

Hey Neo to get a trade run scheduled for you just follow the instructions in the first post of this thread and I will get one planned. Also, we can easily do a run for you since not only you have a merch ship but donaga has one and tokin will have his tonight too :)

• Chux
• Gilda Run
• Freed
• 40
• Cutter
• 7pm-1am EST
• Marian (Guild House)

Schedule updated.

Just found out some things at work that will require me to change some things. I'll get a hold of you in game.

I'm curious if these trade runs are something we have to attend? I plan to attend as many as possible, and look forward to one day taking the guild up on this service. Last night it took quite a while, and there is one scheduled for almost every day for the next week. Like I said, I want to help as much as possible, but after getting home from work, these take up a large chunk of gaming time for me to attend nightly. Also, doing like 3 people back to back would be nice, instead of one nightly, as such a large part of the time was setting up in Solz it seemed like. I'd rather lose one whole night than part of 3 personally. Just some thoughts.

No, participation in these are not mandatory (none of our events are).

Nope. Not at all.

Unfortunately due to each persons individual schedules and the schedules of our boat captains we can not always do multiple runs back to back on just one day. So for sanity and scheduling sake it is just simpler to do one or 2 runs each evening. Participation is not mandatory but when you have time to help others do their runs, more people are likely to help assist with your own runs in the future ^^ But by no means should you feel like you must attend every trade run we do :D

Update: So I accidentally hit the delete key in my mailbox while all messages in my inbox were check marked. Which means I lost all the mail I had not yet had a chance to open and read >.> If you sent me a mail about scheduling a trade run or any other mails and your run is not set on the schedule yet or you didn't get a reply, please resend me a new mail. I apologize for the inconvenience! Sorry >.<

I think I've been to all of the ones since joining, the good news is they were faster. We sat around for over 30 mins the first run I went on :) Thanks for the answers. I do plan on scheduling one in the future, to get a fishing boat, so I will continue to attend as many as possible.

My run has been pushed to tomorrow. I've been dealing with unexpected problems at work and wasn't able to get things done to time my labor correctly. I'm also still looking for a place to park 65 packs in N. Solz or Mari. I'm willing to let you use my 16x16 in Gweonid for the weekend so you can make up the time missed and more. Please get at me in game.

The good news is that Nalani can finally get a run in tonight!

:D I can try to fit some of your packs on tokins 8x8s in mari and some around the guild house. Also you could ask carnage, ishar, neoxide and a few others I know who have land in mari. If you get them to n.solz i can let you use my 16x16 there :)

http://imgur.com/a/JfNkH#0 Saw some pictures on reddit on how to cram trade packs into farm space

Seeing that photo makes me feel a bit silly for how I've placed packs on my farm. Now I get it.

I would love to a trade run for myself send ya an ingame mail

We are doing a temporary hold on scheduling any more trade runs until after the 4th! The open days on the schedule are reserved for Auroria preparations, pvp practice, hasla and gha runs to get everyone geared up! Once things settle down with Auroria land grabbing we will continue adding more runs into the trade run schedule. The runs that are currently scheduled already will be done but no other runs will be added at this time. Thank you for your understanding :D

Whom are we funneling Gilda through for the mansion?

Considering that 80 packs a day is a huge number to sustain over three or four days, do you want us crafting packs or just sending raw mats?

I have a few random packs already made that I'm not using I can give on top of mats.

I would like a slot on the schedule once available. I only need like 40 packs ran. I will also need to borrow land in solz or marian, wherever the guild wants to run from.

I just wanted to add, I've had my trees a few weeks now. I wanted to do my gilda run to Freedrich about two weeks before Auroria, but due to some mismarking of the date I joined, I was forced to stay a recruit longer, so I couldn't schedule a trade run. I then had to wait for Auroria release. I just know that a million people now want fishing boats in guild because of the new TS trees, but I just wanted to make sure I was towards the front of the line if possible since I've been waiting a while :)
