So, clear this up for me... Are we all in the same guild or not? What actually is the starting prompt/condition here?

Considering all the bios that have appeared so far, I think the only way to play this is to go with the idea that everyone just joined up with a celebratory guild during the game's final moments.  Most people have abandoned the game at this point, knowing it is going the way of the Dodo, so it makes sense that players with no guild mates left around might want to join up with other plays for a final hurrah.

Anyway, I'll be busy for a few days so no OOC for a while.
