KON City
I was very excited to get the e-mail stating that I was included in the Star Wars Galaxy beta. After ordering my CDs through Sony’s online store I got a lecture from a co-worker. He told me it was wrong that I had to pay 5 bucks to get the software. I gave him a stony-eyed look and said “Frankly, I don’t give a damn.” I just wanted to see the game in action.’

- So how did it go?, Dillon asked me in a tell as I was headed out of Theed.
I told him and he said he would fix it. One minute later I got a tell from Dredd and I became a member of KON.
KON turned out to be a small casual guild. We build a city in a very nice valley like area on Naboo with a splendid view over bright green grassy plains.
I don’t remember much from my few months in KON. We made a couple of trips to various Points of Interest (mostly known locations from the movies like Luke’s childhood home, Ewok villages, etc.), and one of our members won a Miss Universe of the month cross server beauty contest.
But it was not the guild experience but something totally different that I would discover in this period, something that would become an obsession and my main reason for playing SWG… rare pet hunting!
