While I am not personally from Siren server, I do think that some sort of reward would be appropriate to commemorate their success over the years in Besieged. Nothing too extravagant mind you. A Mog House trophy furnishing of the Astral Candescence with some text in the item description detailing the achievement would be reasonable, don't you think? Just something that came to mind after seeing the news this morning.

how much you wanna best it got lost because of abyssea? XD
No.
Besieged is not cool enough to give any kind of rewards, beyond what it already gives.

They get gloat points, that's worth a reskinned chocobo plaque at least.
They get singled out and plastered all over POL. It's reward enough for something that isn't that big of a deal. It just means they've lucked out since 2006. Finally that luck ran out and never again do we have to be told by SE that Siren is better than the rest of us.
Keep control of all of the northlands for at least one week in CB after winning over throne room. Now that would be an impressive server feat.

Seems like a heaping helping of Bitter-butthurt in this thread. Not everyone, But a few.
Why would you care if they got a little statuette commemorating their achievement >.>? Its a Furnishing, and they did what none of you could.
I'm as happy as the next guy i get to stop hearing about siren's besieged record, But it doesn't mean this wouldn't be a fun idea for them.
It wouldn't be much different than the Ballista Royale hats, except those had use. The Furnishing would not, Other than a memory.

I always thought it would have been cool if besieged had some form of personal score card...
with stats on your performance and number of times participating in besieged...
hopefully the new "dungeon crawling" system they have planned on the road map implements something like this...
I like reading random stats ^^

I still dont get how they didnt lost a besieged do to a Server maintenance or Update.
" ..we reccomend you to shut down properly ..ecc.." then before the server go off ..
" enemy forces Attack Ath Urgan .."
it happened more than once on Fairy, years ago
Btw Fairy was prolly the first server to lose a Besieged ! I want my prize! è.é!
Congratulation to Siren Server Players for the amazing record -.^

I think the bigger question is if they know how to get the Astral Chastitybelt back...

We, Siren that is, had the candy back in under and hour actually.
We wouldn't have lost it all if SE hadn't "somehow" needed an emergency maintenance on Al Zahbi right as the horde attacked.

If the area went down for maintenance, wouldn't that end the attack right there?

most of the times when i was able to attend and all five generals died i ended up on some strange job combo (war/rdm) training monsters in groups of 10 outside of the candy to JPs and then HPing and doing it again... other than gloating i think we should have something like a lural crown like we got for the interserver ballista
THIS IS SIREN

Fame and glory /cheer...I can see if a reward "if" SE stated it when Besiege first began...but nooooo! A reward would rather be unfair:p

It's unfair that Siren has to care about Besieged that long...

>_> And here I was about to say Fairy to answer his question, some one goes and beats me to the punch (I'm serious too, I first thought Quetzalcotl but then realized Fairy is the more logical answer :Q)
