    With so many players stuck in queues to get onto the server or stuck at work waiting to get back to their new shiny, we thought today was a great time for a public service One Shots. Indeed! When you get frustrated that you can't get online and romp through the RIFT head-start, you can just pop back here and zen out on this placid screenshot taken by Embolism. He writes in: "I woke up to a massive blanket of snow outside and a text message from work telling me to stay home. The RIFT open beta was ending, so I decided to jump on for the last few hours. Poodoo, my cat, and I finally found a good spot to stop and relax in the sun when a rift decided to ruin the view. It's just one of those days I guess." One Shots is always on the lookout for great screenshots. If you'd like to contribute, then email your image to us here at oneshots@massively.com. Be sure to include your name, the name of the game, and a description of what we're seeing. Yours could be the next one we post on Massively! %Gallery-112285%

    You know what we're thankful for? We're always thankful to see new, independent MMO games entering the market like Perpetuum! They generally take interesting chances and try out various new things, which in turn gives us great One Shots to check out. Today's example from Perpetuum is a great case in point. While this may look like a fierce, fiery flower against a rocky cliff at first glance, the actual story of what's going on here is much more interesting. Embolism, submitter of today's screenshot, tells us a bit about what this is: "A few nights ago our corporation, Gallowglass, figured out how to make some new toys. We also had the need for a few million tons of raw material. Given our current need for little toy robots that blow stuff up, we all got together as a corporation to strip the land of its precious resources." The other thing we're always thankful for is more screenshots in our One Shots email box! If you'd like to give us a reason to be thankful to you in particular, you can send in a cool screenshot from your MMO travels. Email it to us at oneshots@massively.com along with your name, the name of the game, and a description of what we're seeing. Guild, corp, group, server, or anything else of that nature is welcome as well. Yours could be the next one we feature here on Massively! %Gallery-85937%
