The city of Al Zahbi, the jewel of the East, is besieged on all sides. Her enemies build their reinforcements, storm through the outlying regions, and then beset their rage upon the walls of the city itself. But there is one hardened group of adventurers who will not let them pass -- who will not let the city fall. The Siren server.
Congratulations to the Siren server of Final Fantasy XI for having over 2,000 successful defenses of Al Zahbi without losing the city once! Yes, that's right, Siren is undefeated when it comes to stopping the hordes of beastmen from tearing the city apart. In fact, out of all of FFXI's 32 servers, they are the only undefeated server.
This also means that Siren has never lost the city in over three years of gameplay. Al Zahbi was released in the Treasures of Aht Urhgan expansion pack, which arrived to all territories in 2006. So cheers to you, Siren, for three years and 2,000 defenses of Al Zahbi. Keep that Astral Candescence safe!

I rank the difficulty in this on par with actually killing the Sleeper in EQ...and we all know how impossible that was and what had to happen to have it actually work...

Holy cow, I don't play the game, but this is obviously very impressive. I don't know whether to give them a medal or free psychological care. ;)

That's funny... I had to read the article twice because the first time I wasn't certain what language it was written in.
So I guess people still play FFXXIIVVIXXI? Wait, I mean FFXVIIXXIV... No, FFXIIVIIXV... Or is it FFIVXXIVVI???
