Major thanks to Ibariba, Makelith, Firebrand, Kinkkerbelle and Pandorda! We just took down Promathia is almost record time. Here is our final group photo. I will be uploading a lot more since I took about 170 pictures lol

And he is Selh'teus's kill on the 2nd form. As you can see, only me (BRD) Fire (WHM) and Kink (BLM) were still alive lol

I do not know how many people would read this and get anything out of what I'll write, but I started this static in anticipation of having a dedicated group to get through CoP together. I probably could not have asked for better.

When it came to the end today, I realized that it is just that, THE END. There is no more frustration of having to actually do these missions, no more gathering, no more cutscene's or wasting money on items that will only get eaten up by a paralyze or death.

Lanien's first picture is something that is quite special, not to say moreso than anyone else's :). It is OUR group's personal triumph over CoP right after we beat Promathia. Six strangers brought together for a common goal. Even though it is a game, that moment cannot be duplicated.

We now move on our separate ways. Whether it be quitting or moving onto whatever the future of the game will bring, there is nothing more special than the friendships and good times from the memories that this moment brings.

We aren't the first people to finish CoP - The fact that six people will no longer get together for the common goal seems surreal. As the leader of the group, I feel the that everyone moves on with a part of me whererever they end up, and even in a game, that this is something that should be a reminder to everyone that will hopefully go through these as missions at some point.

The missions are hard to do but extremely worth it, stick it through and get the content to the end, it makes it that much more worth it to savor every moment, because you get it only once.

Thank you to everyone that helped in the beginning as well, and to the members who made it to the end with me as well. Thinking back, this makes signing on and fighting all those mobs and doing all those cutscenes some of the more fun things I've done in game, so thank you.
 
still have the my three rings wrapup cutscenes to look forward to tomorrow. some of the best story and video in the game and a fitting and wonderful reward for your accomplishment. Congrats guys.
 
Congratulations on walking through the fire together. Welcome to the ring club.
 
I said grats last night when i raised ya and i'll say it again {Congratulations} ^_^
 
Nice and congradulations! Reminds me of my group. We were down to a 66 Smn and a 64 Whm when Prishe popped 100fists and finished her off for us.
 
Yeah!!!!

Congrats guys :)
 
{Congratulations} too you all! I can't wait to get my lvl high enough to grind out missions, I love them ^.^;; or at least I do for now... -.-;; I can definately agree with Ibariba's sentiments. That is, by far, the best part of this game. When you work for hours upon hours, days upon days, with people that you eventually become great friends with. Once it's all accomplished, you have a bond. That's why I love this game, and I'm back after my year and a half of departure.
 
Thanks everyone. It truely is a great thing to get these out of the way. I have 5 new friends I never might have met otherwise. We have been together since the Aquaducts. My Sunday and Monday nights are going to feel empty without them.

All I want to say is thank you group. This is one of my greatest FFXI accomplishments, and you helped me through it. :D
 
I can't begin to describe my feelings about our triumphs, and about this magnificant static I was lucky enough to be a part of. Last night the feelings of triumph on our beating Promethia were shadowed by the realization that our fellowship was coming to an end. The thought that I would eventually have to disband from our static for the last time was actually very painful to me. We've experienced something very, very special - so special that I think only those who have actually been through it themselves can understand how unique and awesome it's been.

We've come through a lot together - shared a common, seemingly unreachable goal - shared the triumphs, the frustrations, the very occasional loss, and the determination to come back and do it again better next time and prevail - making our victories that much more sweet and meaningful. And I've grown and become better in the company of you five outstanding players and persons. I am richer for knowing you, and you have my respect and my admiration.

The rings we pick up today will have far more value to us than the mere stats they come with. And I thank you for the rememberances that will always come with wearing my Tamas Ring.

Thank you, Ibariba, our leader who always led from the front with brains, heart, understanding and compassion.

Thank you, Lanien, who was always there with the right words, and an outlook that sustained us all.

Thank you, Makelith, our rock.

Thank you, Pandorda, our ultimate happy-go-lucky nuclear taru blm.

And thank you, Kinkkerbelle, magnicant blm, extraordinary bst, beautiful kickass girl who triumphed over Promethia and my absolute best friend. <3

With the utmost respect and the very highest regard, I am and will always remain

Yours sincerely,
Firebrand
