RIP any updates before gwg is gone

I PMed him yesterday to make sure he's aware of the closure. No idea why he stopped updating.

QUICK UPDATE BEFORE GWG shuts down

Hey guys, had to take a break from the project for a little while. Firstly, my laptop died and stopped my prophecies progress in its track. Managed to get a new PC but was running out of time on my break (only had a couple of days to try at this point). Decided to switch to my already better established factions route to try and squeeze in a run of that. Managed to get a not-so-great factions run completed in a little over 6 hours. Many mistakes were made and I'd like to aim for closer to 5 hours.

I intend to reboot my guild wars speedrunning ambitions after my exams finish near closer to the end of June. Not sure if I will aim to do just factions, just prophecies or both. I need to improve on the factions route and there's plenty of practice that needs to be done there. On the other hand, I am keen to jump into prophecies because of the challenge.

I'd also really like to thank you both for trying to get into contact RE: GWGW shutting down, it means alot! That leads me to ask, where exactly will this thread be backed up and where I should continue the spiritual successor to this thread?

^Yeah that thread should cover everything you want to know.

In a nutshell:
-Guru will remain accessible at the current location, you just won't be able to log in, post, etc.
-Whether you want to continue the thread at Guru2 or GWL is up to you. Pros and cons of each are in that thread. You can always make a thread in each if you feel inclined. Personally I'd favour whichever place gets more traffic, but it's up to you. I check both.

Glad to hear your project didn't get abandoned.

Thanks Max, had a read of the thread and it seems like it's split into even-ish groups of people who will either use one, the other, both or neither.

I would also prefer to post wherever gets the most traffic- from what I can tell so far that's GWL. That being said, I feel as if there might be enough unique traffic in both forums to warrant double posting, but I'll probably try at GWL first and see how it goes. If I do end up reviving the thread there, would you recommend I just post the link to this archived thread for people's reading before continuing?

There's no reason not to. Mostly it's background info and somewhat redundant (not much to be gained from people reading about you struggling with things that you've now figured out, like capping Defy Pain) but it'll help people appreciate what the key challenges are and why.
