Nice to meet everyone from Fabul ^^
/waves to Besaid
Anyone know what the hell a Balmung is? It sounds, er, X-rated. :P
You know that Besaids combining with Fabul was a nod to my movement!
Someone out their had a good laugh when they suggested our FABULOUS! server be combined with Fabul
Hello, also looking forward to meeting you guys and big welcome from Counting Sheep:)
I think it's a noun.... "Stick it in my Balmung!" Works great :).
Edit: Hi, and welcome to the new server, I look forward to playing with you all. I was wondering if one of you guys could do me a favor? Go into search and find out how many players are currently online for Fabul. I'll check in a moment and post my findings for Besaid.

It has a bit of references in Final Fantasy games found here:

Oh snap, 5-Star Molly is coming to our server! ;)
Seriously, welcome! :D
And I have to agree, Balmung isn't the most aesthetically pleasing name. It's conjuring up some potty humor around the forums. So, I finally did a bit of research:
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Balmung
Sounds a bit more epic now. :cool:
- In Norse mythology, Balmung is the sword of Siegfried used to slay Fafnir.
- In FFX, Balmung is one of Tidus's swords.
- In FFXI, Balmung is a Fafnir drop.
- In FFT, Balmung is the 2nd best Fell Sword.
- In Dissidia 012 Balmung is a lvl 90 sword.
Edit: Blargh, Bigcajonez beat me to it. Darn my tablet posting.
We are all Belmungorers now.
Balmung, The Official Hippie Server. =)
Also, for no reason, the song I'm listening to:

I'll keep updating the amount of players every 1h 45m :P.

I think we're reading it more like Balmonger.
Where if a warmonger is someone who is eager to promote and engage in wars.
A balmonger is someone who is eager to promote and engage in balls.
And by balls, I totally mean what the Moogle Juggler job in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance practices with before switching to knives.
Have I been summoned?
"A magical sword, Balmung, was made by Wayland the Smith. Odin stabbed the Branstock tree, an oak tree in the Volsung palace, with Balmung. Odin then said that he who could pull the sword from the tree is destined to win in battle. Nine of the Volsung princes tried to take the sword, but only the youngest ever got it out. His name was Sigmund. Odin destroyed Balmung in battle but it was reassembled and Siegfried used it against Fafnir."

It's a horrible name and the story behind it isn't very interesting. Damn the luck, I wish we would have gotten Masamune.
Welcome everyone! I can't wait to meet new people! ^^
As for the Balmung name...well, did anyone ever play .hack? I liked that character.
He kinda was:
