//Since our last post we’ve all been very busy playing the new expansion, Shadowbringers! However, today 8 members of the FC got together and we managed to get a clear on Titania Extreme for 6 of our members!
Well done everyone and now let’s do it again to get the mount!
//
Today was the bonding between Marr and Carl, Marr somehow wore some clothes!
Was a lovely time with lots of Free Company members in attendance!
//Today was our last Sunday map session before Shadowbringers!
We had a great turn out with lots of people and can’t wait for maps to return in Shadowbringers!
//I’m very proud to say that our Free Company is now two years old and to celebrate, we had a party with lots of games and prizes! We also officially launched this website!
First we started with some jump challenges, specifically the lighthouse type building in Shirogane and then the Bokairo Inn in Kugane. We didn’t try the massive Shiokaze Hostelry because we didn’t have all day and there were other games to play!
It didn’t take too long for 3 people to reach the top of each so after that moved onto “Hide and Seek”. I’d hidden 4 characters in an area (Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks in this case) and it was the first three people to find each who won a prize. Some were found quite quickly, others took a few more minutes.
Then we played three games of what I’ve been calling “Lawn darts”. We climb a high structure, I place a marker on the ground and everyone has 3 attempts to try and land as close as possible to it, 2 points if they’re dead centre, 1 point if they’re in it at all. Highest score wins the round. Weplayed this at Amarissaix’s Spire (East Shroud), Witchdrop (Coerthas Central Highlands – this was the hardest one!) and The Descent (Middle La Noscea).
Next it was back to the FC house for a pop quiz (first to shout out the correct answer wins). Some questions outdoors, some indoors and I think it went pretty well!
Then we headed off to Wolves’ Den Pier for a mini PVP tournament. We had two separate tournaments, one for melee DPS and another for ranged/casters.
Finally we headed back to the FC house for the raffle. While we were getting started at the beginning of event I had everyone generate a random number with /random and I started to use /random repeatedly. Whoever was closest got to pick a prize from our prize pool! The final few prizes were raffled off randomly to whoever had the closest to the prize pool.
Then the scores from all the events were tallied and the we had a grand prize which was won by Momo Blakes. This is a drawing of his character by our very talented Blithesome Carl so I look forward to seeing that at somepoint in the future!
Thank you to everyone who came today, I think it went really well and I hope you all had a fun time. Thanks for making the FC what it is and I look forward to another year of fun with you all!
//Today two more of our members went through the Ceremony of Eternal Bonding!
Many of our FC members were there to celebrate with them and afterwards we had a massive convoy of cars going through East Shroud following the married couple!
//
It took us 3 hours, but we just got 7 people a clear on Suzaku Extreme! Go team!
//Today there was a wedding between two of our Free Company members.
Many of our other members went along to help them celebrate and everyone had a great time!
//Back again this week for another Clear in O9S, this being my first time clearing it and my first time doing savage!
It was really fun doing this with FC members and i look forward to doing more with everyone!
During our clear the discord server decided to have a little bit of fun and go robotic but we powered though and still managed to kill it.
//
It’s Sunday again so that means we once again search for more treasure!
Sadly this week we weren’t very lucky at all and hardly any portals appeared and we didn’t get far in those that did.
Still, we each made at least 197k Gil, not including drops, so at least that’s something and next week is sure to be better!

Thanks to everyone that came tonight and helped FC members get clears for the extreme versions of Susano and Lakshmi! Although we didn’t managed to clears for Suzuku Extreme I think we all had a lot of fun and I’m sure we’ll get the needed clears next time!
