Welcome to our clan. We are the biggest and best clan in Demigod, and arguably the only clan with any hope of survival. What is our goal? To get games going without the ridiculous wait times, meet lots of cool people, and last but not least, have lots of fun. If you want a clan based on skill, you won't find one in this game.
Q: Are you the clan leader?
No, absolutely not. GM worked as a democracy, and the same deal goes here - majority rules. I am just your Public Relations (PR) guy. I have noticed that having a solid PR guy does keep the clan intact, and I have made sure I am pretty much accessible and visible as often as I can. I am on msn, xfire, skype, facebook and vent. If you need to find me, you probably will find me and of course I'll allow you to find me. Just ask if you're interested.
Q: What is the recruitment process?
There is no recruitment process, we will accept anyone who wants to join. Just add the tag, hop onto vent, say Hi and I'll add you on here. If you want I can serenade your entrance to the clan with a song of your personal choice, but it must be Top 40.
Q: Are there any rules?
1. Be nice, be respectful of others. I understand trash talking is part of the game for some, but please don't extend it to something personal. It's just a game after all. 2. Unless there is an agreement among the players in the game, please play balanced games. I understand that completely balanced games are probably not possible at the moment, but try to make it as balanced as possible. 3. Have fun!

Here are the current members of OMG (in alphabetical order):
OMG_awuffleablehedgie (a.k.a. OMG_BlackHatHedgehog)
So I used to refer to him as waffles, because I always thought his name was supposed to relate to waffles. Apparently, I was wrong. He's wuffleable - which means huggable apparently. I'm not sure how a hedgehog is huggable, but I guess it is in his world. Hedgie is his nickname, and he's probably the coldest person in this clan, but once you get used to his cold exterior, he turns out to be a really nice guy. He just has these awkward mood swings, where he's super energetic around 10pm EST, and then after 12am, he tends to be super cynical, and then after 3am he turns on his seductive bedroom voice. If you feel offended by him, don't be, because he's just a hedgehog. If you have any questions about any statistical stuff in Demigod, Hedgie knows all. It's actually kinda scary.
OMG_Blackmage (a.k.a. OMG_synnworld)
OMG-CaptainTaco
Taco was an important addition to the clan because he provides the comic relief for everyone. Just look for his posts and you will instantly know what I mean. He likes to describe himself as a terrible DG player, but he only says that just so his opponents will let their guard down and then Taco can strike. I always knew he was a sneaky guy, right when I saw his Pedobear avatar. As you can tell from his name, he loves Tacos but I'm not sure how strong that love is. In fact, none of us really know if his love for Tacos is stronger than tacoguy's. That is a question up for further discussion.
OMG_Defenz
A player from Vancouver. That's all I really know so far but if you're Canadian then that automatically makes you cool.
OMG-dontforgetyourpeanuts
I have a feeling this guy is loaded.
OMG_Epiphenomenon
Epi is what we all call him, so I suppose that's his nickname. He's the brains of the group, Mr.PhD in computer science. I will be joining him in September (hopefully if I survive the summer) but until then he is above me academically. I shall be your colleague soon Epi! He is the voice of reason. He's very mature and civilized, so I'm not really sure why he's a gamer (haha juust kidding). He is currently my academic advisor, even though he never agreed to it. But who cares, I'm sure he'll agree cause he's a nice guy. If you need academic advice, I suggest you go to Epi.
OMG-howboutnoooo
We all call him Max, because that's his name. He is the dog of the family - and that is not to say that he plays an unimportant role. Dogs are a man's best friend and they are extremely friendly, just like Max. Sometimes when you listen to him you might think he's on LSD, but really he's naturally just like that. He sees the world in magical ways, and he opens up your mind to a whole new world. He's also extremely active - as in he's pretty hyper and is always energetic until around 11pm when he usually goes to bed. I initally made fun of Max for sleeping so early as a teenager, but once I realized how much energy he spends just talking I understand why he's exhausted by the end of the day. If you are feeling down, go talk to Max. He is the guy in the clan who will cheer you up.
OMG__IN1
OMG_Jackho
OMG_Jona
Jona is just Jona. He's the drama queen. Yes, believe it or not I am not the biggest drama queen, he is and he's damn proud of it. From just 3 minutes of talking to him, you'd realize that he likes to put himself on the pedestal, and he does. But even with all that attitude, he's a lot of fun to hang out with. Listening to him on vent always makes my day. He also never rage quits, and never actually gets angry - which is kind of surprising now that I think about it. He also has nice eyes that he cherishes, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
OMG_Jongalt26
Nickname is Jon. One continuous question that has been floating around is this, "Who would win in a fight against Jon, KAL-EL and yeahneil?" That is an answer no one has been able to answer yet. Those 3 in my mind are the tough trios - but really, they're all actually probably the nicest people in the clan right from the get go. I'm not going to lie, I was scared to talk to them initially but after maybe.. 2 days? I got comfortable with them. Jon to me is a wonderful fatherly figure so he is definitely the father of the family.
OMG_KAL-EL
His name is pronounced just like the way it's spelled. If Jon is our father, KAL-EL is probably our grandfather, except he's not even that old. So why do I call him the grandfather? Because he has so many people that support him that you can't help but admit that there's something about KAL-EL that makes people like him. The answer becomes quite obvious when you engage in a conversation with him. He always keeps it real, and is genuinely friendly. I still have a hard time matching his friendliness with his tough voice but I'm getting there.
OMG_Mybones
A fellow gleek, and although there are some disagreements between us about who the best character in glee is (obviously Rachel, but he refuses to admit her greatness), as long as he is a fan of glee, I am a fan of him.
OMG_NinkiCZ
I'm just your average joe who's Asian. I'm quite boring so let's move on to someone more interesting.
OMG_Nomilarac
OMG_Obiwhan
I've actually always wanted to meet Obi (his nickname) after yeahneil was making fun of my voice and mentioned that he also makes fun of Obi's. When I actually got to meet him, he wasn't quite what I expected because contrary to what yeahneil thinks, he just had a normal voice. Obi is one of the few that makes me literally LOL. I sometimes do wonder if he's telling me the truth about his age though. You'd understand if you've known him long enough. He is the joker. No, not the joker from Batman, but an actual guy who makes jokes. However, his jokes are NSFW - Not Safe For Work, so be careful.
OMG_pacov
There really isn't much to say about pacov because for anyone that comes to these forums, you really can't miss his name. I've never gotten to know him on a personal level, but from my encounters with him he's quite a wonderful person. I consider him the father of Demigod, as do most people I'm sure because he plays such an active role in this community. I've always wanted to get to know you myself and I'm glad that the opportunity has arrived. I shall definitely update this introduction after we become familiar with each other. I also did not think you were the type to listen to Ke$ha. From your posts, I always thought you were more the old skool type - so there's definitely lots of things for me to learn.
OMG_Pa1nKi11er
This is irek, yo.
OMG_RedneckNinja
OMG_DD-shred_demon
If you don't know who shred_demon is then you are definitely missing out. He is actually the real Gentleman. He has a beautiful Scottish accent and loves to drink tea. He cannot live without his tea. He is also extremely skilled with his use of emoticons (the best in DG?) and we all have lots to learn from him. I've never heard him get angry, he's always smiling in my mind and he always puts a smile on my face. Therefore, if you are feeling down, talk to shreddy. He is the clan's sun (yes as in the big thing that shines the world), but you'll have to ignore his strong desire to wear a skirt and become a transformer.
OMG_Soccer-mom
I remember seeing the name Soccer-mom on Lagwars and thinking what kind of a person would want to be known as a soccer mom. Although his name is a bit weird, he actually is nothing like his name on vent. First, he's not a mom. Second, he's not even a parent. Third, I'm not even sure if he likes soccer. He's actually one of the younger guys on vent but surprisingly is one of the most mature guys on there too. I suppose it has to do with the fact that he studies physics (which I think is absolutely amazing because I suck at physics). If you want to delve into a discussion on quantum theory, talk to him.
OMG_SoSick
Another Canadian from Edmonton, which makes him cool. Quite a laid back sorta guy, who's apparently an excellent cook. He kind of reminds me of jaws8you (who seemed to have disappeared somewhere) but without the sighing and he also never gets mad. He is a great guy to play games with because he's a great listener, always calm and even takes responsibility for his mistakes - which is quite a rare sight in Demigod, and even in life. He has almost made drastic improvements over these weeks and I'm sure he'll be excellent in no time.
OMG_Splitshadow
Don't be fooled by his age. Kids his age should be listening to Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus, yet he chooses to listen to Proud Mary by CCR. He likes to blame me for not being on vent, when in fact I am always on and I do pm him from time to time yet he chooses to ignore my messages, probably from Maccilia's terrible influence. He says he can tell a lot about you from your voice, so you should ask him for a personality diagnosis if you're interested.
OMG_Teseer
Everytime I talk to Teseer on vent, he seems like a completely different person. If you look over his posts you can tell that most of the time he's under the influence of some sort of substance, which could explain why he's a different person each time. While he sounds like a tough dude, he's not aggressive at all and I don't think I've ever heard him get mad. He also has this disgusting passion for TB, it's kind of to the point where it's a bit obsessive in my opinion. If you have any questions about TB, ask this man. Provide him with TB replays and he'll be very pleased.
OMG_Zalera (a.k.a. OMG_Sol)
He's barely on so how am I supposed to know anything about him. All I know is that he pops up in the forums once in a while and he seems to be BFFs with Splitshadow.
OMG_Zelax_
OMG_Zex (a.k.a. Cowbuttzex)
I always thought cow was a weird guy because he's the only person who seems to get along with Peter, but when you talk to him he's actually quite normal. I think it's because he's very accepting of everyone, as you can tell from being our first ever member of the week. If you don't know who to talk to when you come onto vent, the first person I would suggest is cow, because he's very considerate and would do his best to include you in games. He's also very encouraging and I think he plays a vital role in merging the members of the clan together.
OMG-Zoahr
Here is our vent channel, all are welcome, even just for a chat:

You are more than welcome to use the OMG channel
I like that they are dropping games for windows live though... not a fan of it at all... looking forward to hearing more about the game as details are provided though.
Same. My friend was talking to me about it, earlier this summer.
La-boar-a-tory
As much as i like them dropping GFWL, no longer retro-compatibility with DoW II and Chaos Rising is a bummer for me. From this moment, to my eyes CHaos Rising value dropped to 5$ max, same for vanilla DoW2.
Not patching new content into old DOW2 titles and splitting the playerbase with Retribution effectively means once it is launched old DoW2 titles will be abandoned completely. This looks more like an Activision-Blizzard move than a THQ-Relic one. It's as if Blizzard required the 1st expansion pack for SC II players to play online when it's launched.
Unless they give an easy and cheap process for old dow 2 owners to migrate to Retribution, boooo Relic.
Well... i started work at 1AM (I normally work 8-5)... I'm still working and troubleshooting now... wooo.
It's too early to say at this time. If it costs "full price" for people who already have the game, that'll really suck. On the other hand, people who purchase Retribution will get the "full game" so it's a better deal for *them* and that'll make the player base grow (I imagine.)
Another benefit is if the balance is totally borked like it was when CR came out, you can just drift back to CR until it gets fixed
Regardless, I doubt this game will be $50. DoW II at release was only $40, and CR at release was $30 (gold edition containing vanilla + CR was $40).
What I think we'll see is the game will appear at brick-and-mortar stores for $40. Then, through Steam we'll get a "rebate" that will allow us to purchase Retribution for -$10 online (or something like that). But that's just what I think will happen right now. It could just end up being $30 for everyone.
I saw elemental in walmart today, every fiber in my being was yelling get it get it.
every fiber in your being was wrong. Wait. Let them patch the meh out of the game... then pick it up.
I didn't question it; just said it was wrong.
anyways I didn't get it because I know about all the problems, the 40 just didn't seem worth it. You let me know how those patches come along and then I'll think about it. I might not have the money then.
whoa whoa whoa.. it was pacov who said it not RAWRRRR! wtf
Pacov has die-a-matic immunity though, so I have to pick a new target, unless you are volunteering?
eat it, rawrrrr
So... new Elemental patch cannot be downloaded Oh, and multiplayer finally was released... in "beta". Yep. Nearly a full month after release, a part of the game advertised on the box is released! As Beta! Woot!
\is unhappy hedgie
btw, Civ V is 34.1% preloaded (:
Well... I was able to download it. I'm still working with SD to get the 100% refund. If you have technical issues and don't want to muck around, they will give you a 75% refund, no questions asked. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and said I'd wait until 1.08 came out - and then I'd test. Anyway, I HAVE to play a game on 1.08, so if you can download it sometime soon, let's try some mp with voice chat and see how that works out hedgie.
also - methinks synn doesn't know who 4nana is
ruisrpg has been asking me to form a clan with him. I told him he was welcome to join OMG. Told him to post here and change his username if he wants in. He plays with me on cheesus anyway.
You know - we really should have demigod days from time to time. I know its still a buggy mess, but it would be fun to get everyone back together, maybe once a week and get some games in.
I'd be okay with "Demigod days".
I contacted Elemental support. I still cannot download. They put me on the shelf until tommorow
I dunno if I'll get voice chat. remember I have to go to a coffee shop. I would look silly with my headset in here.
Have him change his tag. It's not like he is any worse of a player than synn. I mean. Um.. yay!
Edit: 40.3% preloaded!
side note - elemental mp... OMFG.
Play it and you will see.
edit - seriously.... I did exactly 1 quick test game. The chat key is double quotes... you know... the sort of key you always press to chat in games. Minor gripe, right? 6 turns in, they guy I was testing with and I both could not end turn. It was just frozen. We could chat, but that was it. In short, you and I can try to get a game in, but I'm very confident similar results will happen... Its a beta release of MP after all (not a total beta, tbs). Anyway, shoot me - goodnight.
It's a "beta", I know. A beta one month after release. No AI. It makes me laugh 8D
but it's fun to moddddddd
<- loves modding
modding is swell... i take it you are not considering a refund? Staying for the long haul?
I'm staying for the long run. I enjoy modding a lot. I don't think you quite understand yet (: I enjoy talking about video games and designing video games more than playing video games (bet that doesn't come as a surprise).
Plus I got it 20% off. So, if I ask for a refund now, only get 75%, then buy the game later on... it better be really cheap or else I threw money down the drain.
Plus, it lets me throw fits on the forums and not get written off as a "troll" since the moderators can see what games you purchased on the side-bar.
And ummm... I like to download updates! and read patch notes. I run around reading patch notes for games I don't even own and are not even a little interested about!
srsly lol.
I guess Elemental Multiplayer works so if one player ends their turn the other players have 10 seconds to finish their turn... :/
No one likes you anyway hedgie, sorry we aren't all as godly as you
Just like to remind everyone that Ninki smells really, really bad.
or it just freezes and neither of you can do anything. Pick your poison.
