    Sooooooo looking forward to this, and like usual The Guild delivers just what I need. More neurotic gamers like myself and friends.

    I started watching this show this summer all thanks to Netflix. Apparently the fact that I liked Buffy and Dr. Horrible made Netflix suggest The Guild, and when I made the connection between Vi, Penny and Codex I was more than willing to see if Felicia Day could impress me again in a third performance. Less than a month later, I’ve watched seasons one, two, and three and now I’m still coming back for more. Suffice it to say, I was impressed. Especially with this being a web series.

    I’m not an MMORPG gamer, but I still love the show and the characters. This is a great series, especially because of how true and original the idea is. But argh, Netflix conditioned me into not having to wait a week for the next episode, so catching up kind of sucks.

    …Yeah, so… When exactly is this show uploaded? I’m guessing either Monday night or really, really early Tuesday based on when the comments start.

        I probably should have spaced it out, but I just ran through all 3 seasons, and the first two of season 4 in over the past 5 hours. It’s now 3 am… Suffice it to say, I love The Guild, and I shall be calling out of work tomorrow morning.

    Great Episode! I love how you guys really bring out Zaboo’s personality on getting over codex… because that’s how a guy would act… and end up creeping the girl out until someone gave him a good talking too… hopefully that goes over well! Can’t wait to see who will win the contest on the guild hall…

    Just a note, hoping y’all go into more of tinkerballa’s character.. she seems so mysterious and not much is known about her besides her playing… Oh and where did clara’s husband go xD Mr. Winky!

    I’ve never watched a series that can make me laugh 20 times in five minutes. I love this series!! I wish it had more funding or whatever it needs to GIVE US MORE. Five minutes a week is not nearly enough in my opinion. :(

    I wonder if Felicia naturally has that odd quirky sense of humor that was once Joss Whedon’s trademark, or if she learned at his feet… but she’s mastered it and I love her for it :-)

    New episode… hilarity ensues. Awesomeness, as always.

    I got turned on to this months ago by a co-worker of mine. I have watched ever since and anticipated every episode. Lovely work folks, lovely.

    As for financial support… MS was smart to fund. WTF was everyone else thinking? You snooze you lose!

      I’m pretty sure Felicia Day turned down other offers waiting for the right moment. Then Microsoft came around at the right time and she finally agreed. So I guess snoozing was actually in Microsoft’s favor this time around. In this scenario, you snooze you win! …Or something more witty than that. Like… “The more you wait, you lure in the bait.” *cough* Kay I’m done.

    Where’s episode 3? My addiction must be fueled!

    But seriously, where is it? I thought they were supposed to be posted every Tuesday. It’s now Friday and it still isn’t here.

      I recommend you follow Felicia Day and Watchtheguild in Twitter. It was said there that it’s not out, because their new Game On -music video took too much time.

    Don’t want to come off as a scrooge, but I made a comment about s4e1 that said this series needs to be careful about getting too “established” and I am going to reiterate that…please, EVERYONE from the Guild: Think back to who you’re character was in seasons one and two. Please avoid the “familiarity” with your character and the other characters that leads to lazy character development and interactions.

    Remember Happy Days? Fonzie started off as so cool he was cold. A couple of seasons later he was a boob doing Broadway and couldn’t find cool in Alaska. I’m also noticing that the camera work is even less like the earlier seasons. I don’t know how much longer you plan on doing this, but you need to retain the “underground” flavor you had when this started no matter how well-known you as actors and this series becomes. It’s the key to keeping this from becoming the last season of Northern Exposure.

    In other words, please keep these characters from becoming characatures of themselves. It can happen before you know it. That said, Go Guildies! This series is hilarious!

    Hm this episode is just like episode one. Looks like Season 4 doesn’t have much story or direction. I hope the season picks up

      Posted August 2, 2010 at 2:56 pm | Permalink

      Hmm… i disagree. lol. I mean its only the second episode. Plus they left a bunch of unanswered questions and potential plot lines from last season, like clara being pregnant, riley and zaboo’s breakup and rileys rebound. (subscribed!) :D And not to mention the obvious stuff with codex and fawkes. This seasons gonna be great. (It had me at farting to make someone taco flavored…)

      (sorry, more ranting ahead)

      And to DeepEE, i understand where you’re coming from…but i dont see it happening as of yet. I mean i agree that it could do damage to the series if it happened…but they are still FAR FAR off away from that IMO. I mean everyone seems to be growing as characters (well other than tink…but they havent really gotten into her character yet.)
      But nice happy days reference. haha. i cant even remember the lst time i thought of the fonz. lol.

      And seriously….where the hell is Ep. 3!!!! i loved the music video but damn…dont tease me like that!!!! :( ((

    Now please: every one SHUT UP AND STOP ASKING AFTER THAT EPISODE 3! It is said in nearly every news, which are following the progress of the Guild!

    Episode 3 is not out, because their new “Game On” -music video took too much time. But hey, check it out! Maybe it keeps you alive until they publish the episode 3. Here’s the link:

    oddly enough, this show makes me want to play mmorpg’s again. I started watching this on Netflix. Gotta love netflix sometimes! They recommended it to me. Now I’m kinda obsessed =) Poor Codex. Totally knew that was going to happen…just…not quite so mean.
