Gamers welcome to the September edition of the Alora Times! Lucifers GIM has once again decided to touch some grass so I've decided to take over the newspaper duties for this month.
Hope you enjoy the read! Make sure to follow Alora on FB and Instagram above and join our Discord.
This month we have a some great interviews from Marg & Krest. Enjoy the read!
-
H: What is one of your accomplishments you're most proud of?
Marg: The accomplishment that I am most proud of in life is, without a doubt, having managed to form a career in the professional field that I have always dreamed of since I was little! Being able to work with children has always been my greatest ambition and thankfully I managed to graduate, complete a master's degree and pursue a PhD in this area.
H: What is something you think everyone should do at least once in their lives?
Marg: I think that everyone, at least once in their life, should venture out of their "everyday environment" and discover other parts of the world! And I don't mean hotels and luxurious beaches - I mean being in contact with nature, with wildlife, visiting deserts, mountains, the sea... it's really humbling to realize how small we are in contrast to the world that we live in!
H: What is your most memorable moment while playing Alora?
Marg: I understand that this might not be that funny when told in text format but regrettably I did not record it... The most I have ever laughed on Alora/Runescape was like one year ago. Our clan had around 10+ people out on the wilderness because we were protecting a Wilderness Supply Chest in a Multi-combat zone... While we were there, an absolutely cute-noob appeared out of nowhere alongside a veteran player who was kind-hearted enough to guide him through Mage Arena 2 quest. As soon as the veteran player saw 10+ white dots in front of him he made a full 180 and ran for his life while only saying "Run btw" to his peer... Needless to say that the poor nooba did not complete his quest as he proceeded to catch a rain of specs and died. The innocence and naivety of that situation was so much that we couldn't stop laughing at the guy but we did trade him back all of his gear and even gave him gear and gp as a compensation and incentive to keep playing!
H: What do you do in your spare time apart from play Alora?
Marg: As far as gaming goes apart from playing Alora I play Old-School Runescape. As far as IRL goes, my job used to take up most of my time during the week but as I am in the process of moving to my home country at the moment I am not employed. I mostly do chores, go on walks, do groceries and go out to eat during the week and on the weekends I usually pick a city and stay there during those days to visit and get to know the places of interest!
H: If you were given $10,000, what would you do with it?
Marg: I would do as I have been doing every year for the last seven years which is donating money, clothes, toys and school supplies to children's institutions or even schools most in need of those things. Life is about sharing and all the money in the world means nothing if you cannot share it with those who need it the most!
Krest: My current goals are to max my GIM, get the dark acorn for my squirrel, complete achievement diarys, hopefully get spooned in raids and do group content with my team. GIM has really got me addicted and I am hoping to complete most of these goals by the end of the year.
H:What's the longest you've gone without sleep (and why)?
Krest: I think it was during a subathon stream I did for charity and ended up streaming a total of 3 1/2 days and staying up for almost 36 hours straight before having to take a nap. Was one of the worst things I have went through but was for a good cause.
H: What are the best and worst purchases you’ve ever made?
Krest: The best purchase I ever made was a house that I got about 2 years ago now. The worst would probably be 3-4 designer belts that I bought and haven't worn in probably a year or two.
H: If you could have lunch with any member of the community, who would it be and why?
Krest: I honestly have been dying to meet Moe & Randell. We have grown pretty close over the past year and I need to see for myself what a noob they both are.
H: What do you do in your spare time apart from play Alora?
Krest: Aside from working and playing Alora I am renovating part of my house for my future daughter who will be born early next year. When I am not doing that I like to play VALORANT & sometimes Rust.
