TLDR: 20+ incredibly generous people I don't even know just took an hour out of their Saturday morning to help me get my epic. Blue is amazing.
So, today this happened:

*INSERT SCREENSHOT OF LORD RAK'ASHIR CORPSE (THAT I ALSO FAILED TO TAKE)*
And then this happened:

But the crazy thing is, I don't have any real ties to any of the people who came! And to make matters even crazier, when I tried to give out the (pathetically low) rewards I had promised, the majority turned them down! In what other game sever, let alone EverQuest server, would so many people be so incredibly generous?
Here's a partial list of who came (I wish it was complete, but things were very hectic, so I apologize in advance to anyone I missed):
Auena
Busuuyiph
Blueogre
Cloki
Daldaen
Darksage
Dodgethis
Dullard
Gehde
Grishnahk
Inik
Junias
Kiago
Majestar
Menolee
Qwarrawq
Rento
Sage
Seltius
Snudge
Voranik
Zabor
Zyryn
Thank you so much to everyone on that list for helping; it really meant the world to me. Extra thanks to Daldaen for selling me a tear at a very reasonable price, to Anonomous for offering to come without even knowing I was in the guild, and to Omni (Cloki in particular) for coming out in force AND helping lead the raid (again, despite not having any ties at all to me).
There really is something special about the Blue server community, and today I got to see it in action. Thank you so much to everyone for helping today, and if anyone on the server ever needs a Shaman to help with something just let me know (after today I have so much kharmic debt it will take years to pay back ;)).
