Ye Olde Goone Squade (YOGS) is the name of the World of Warcraft guild where Lewis and Simon first met online. The original Yogscast team grew out of the guild's connections, with Rythian, Sips, Duncan and Zoey being among its members. TotalBiscuit was also a part of the guild, as revealed during a Christmas livestream of Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon.
The guild was located on "The Venture Co." EU PVP RP server.
Ye Olde Goone Squade is known as a "Goone" guild because it consists primarily of members of the Something Awful Forums, whom are called Goons.[2] Simon and Lewis, among others in the Yogscast, were also members of the SA Forums.
Ye Olde Goone Squade is abbreviated to "YOGS," which is where the names Yogscast and YoGPoD come from.
