Nice viderino, I recorded and was going to upload too but I stopped here:
Pretty fun and met a lot of people I never knew. I usually get bored of towering after about 2 weeks, so I'm glad it was faster than that. It was surprising to see we beat many guilds that had 700 hours when we started.
The guild was given to me with ~200 hours a while ago, so I felt responsible for bringing it to 1k after seeing that deadline in the news. Another reason I wanted to do it is because I plan to expand Alumni to recruiting towerers if guild roster sizes are raised when the new system is launched. This was a nice test to see which people might be good for that.
I made an unordered hat list earlier and it was 48 people. It's sort of depressing that the end of each 1k guild gets punctuated by only a part of the guild getting the reward, but I understand why they do it. Hopefully, that won't be an issue when the guild system gets reworked.
