They welcome all to join them in their nostalgic dive into The Secret World - Catboiler has even made the open request for any developers who worked on the game to come for some interviews! They are also raffling off what they call an "OG TSW account", which we presume is an unused CD Key for The Secret World as opposed to a pre-existing account.

The "League of Monster Slayers" cabal is hosting a game of musical chairs with all of the whimsy and charm you would expect! "fowlskins" will be holding the event at 16:00 EDT on 08 July 2022 in Axel's in the Hollowed Halls of Agartha! For those unfamiliar with musical chairs, players try to sit in an open seat during a period of time typically designated by music - when the music stops, anyone not in a chair has lost, and the number of chairs decreases as the rounds played increase. For the League of Monster Slayers' rendition of the game, players will be told when to rush to seats and when the time's up, but no music will be involved. The game ends once there is only one player left seated, no matter how many rounds that may take. The winner will be given a Party Ghoul pet and Shocking Steps, Green sprint from the League of Monster Slayers, but the goal of the game is to have fun!
If you want to play, Meet Up on "fowlskins" before the game begins! Please do not Dodge or use any Gadgets or Active or Passive abilities that offer increased movement speed, dashes, teleports, or other means of giving an unfair advantage. Using any of the above will disqualify you from the game. Don't cheat!
