I stumbled across such a great story today. Apparently about a year ago, some kids who take MMORPGs way too seriously started up a Storm Trooper guild in the Star Wars Galaxies online role-playing game. Just like my old roommate Bobby in Tribes, they'd meet for drills and patrols. Finally, the game developers noticed this little bubble of dedicated players and arranged for Darth Vader to take some time out of his busy day and stop by to inspect the troops and give a speech. Since I'm sure the screenshots on the linked thread will go down soon, here's my two favorites. Imagine the titillation those players felt when their year of hard work finally paid off. It's times like this that make it all worth it.
