Holy Crap! I’m going to play Dragon Age: Origins in London
I can’t believe it! I got picked!
I am such an uber game nerd.
I’m going to be representing Team USA during the Warden’s Quest next week in London. How epic is this? I can’t even begin to speak about it’s epicness.
So what’s this nerdly activity I will be doing to represent my fine country, you ask?
Welcome to the Dragon Age: Origins Wardens’ Quest, a 24-hour gaming event where 10 teams of gamers from around the world are competing for a grand prize of $50,000 to be shared between team members. Each team must enroll as a Grey Warden and fight against the evil forces of the darkspawn. The road will be tough, teams will be eliminated throughout the 24-hour period and competition will be fierce as each team tries to out play and out role-play their competition.
You can watch all the action as it happens on our live video stream as well as support your favourite teams on their dedicated Facebook and Twitter pages. There will also be teams from BioWare and European Dragon Age Communities to broadcast live from the event on the Dragon Age forums, Twitter account, Facebook page and more. Throughout the event we will be giving away Dragon Age: Origins merchandise to fans who tune in and cheer on the competitors.
Join us on Wednesday 28th October from 10am GMT to support the teams, watch the eliminations, learn more about the game and see who will eventually take the ultimate prize of the Warden’s Quest.
What is even more awesome is that Team USA is all women. Thats right! All women.
So stay tuned. I will post links to all the relevant live broadcasts and hopefully I’ll be able to do some tweeting/blogging/video from the event as well.
Cheer us on and maybe win some swag!
I keep stammering over all my praise for Bioware. What an amazing opportunity and what an amazing company. I cannot wait!

I thought I’d type the event into google to see if anyone else had announced their victory – I just got picked for the UK team myself!
May the uhh.. best Grey Warden win!

How exactly does the competition work exactly? As it is a single player game, do you all just go until you die to be eliminated?

Hi moarinternets,
I saw your profile on YT. Just wanted to say, cool site, and great to read about you and other ( girl ) gamers out there.
I’ve always loved videogames, and am so glad I started playing DAO recently. Great to see you love it too, and that you played it in a contest, that’s smashing. Although you might be playing ME2 by now. Keep it up!
greetings, F.
