  1. It sure is. And i'll actually be around to see you all. Look forward to it muchly
  2. Shock, can you please put @B-Lizzard's Rad/Rad defeder (aplha ray) down as a reserve please?
  3. Am getting into contact with the recommended now, just to confirm weither they can make it or not.

    Our MoSTF was done without an empath . though we did have Maelwy's rather stunning sonic/elec fender. So either empath or sonic would be delicious.

    Will get back to you ingame re: attendance shock

    edit: on a sidenote: It says nothing about the figth I had in my info of my char, why is this?

    I'm guessing DJ left the matches unrated, so there's no chance of some casual PvP staining a characters record.

    And i'm glad It was fun, sorry I had to miss it Will be there next week
  5. Curses. The department needs me tomorrow evening. The event will still be going ahead, I shall get someone to take it on my behalf. Let me know how it goes
  6. Defiance 2.0?

    Or is there an actual bug at the moment? (I havn't played blasters since my only ever blaster in i5)

    You don't have to bring a PvP toon mighty, with this being Team PvP, anything team oriented has just as much worth

    Wow, how noble. A self handicap :P. Like Ouroboros?

  8. I agree. Perhaps simply listing the teams, and their Wins, Loses, (draws) for now, so as not to overcomplicated things?
  9. though, aren't leagues mutually exclusive of one another? Eg. like the Football league, where the top teams are given the chance to try out the league above them if they rank highly enough?

    How does a ladder differ from this? Though I guess, in terms of what they try to achieve Miiru, i agree, more or less the same thing
  10. that is a shame guffy . Like i said earlier here, could extend to outside this day, or even move it. it all depends.

    And 'Ladder' and 'League', as concepts, are blurred for me. Could someone elaborate on them, as if i've got it right, it should be much nicer to organise
  11. once they've been set up, yes. To ensure teams fight a varied spread of teams (and not the same one twice, if possible)

    New to game

    Only Advice, as said in the scrapper thread: Get stamina asap (lvl 20, has 2 prequisits, Swift *or* Hurdle, and Health)

    Everything else is optional. Being a scrapper, your priority is your...erm..scrapping :P, but don't neglect your defensive toggles.

    Be sure to enhance your powers. Once you're lvl 12, you can more onto lvl 15 'Duel-Origin' enhancements. At lvl 22, 'Single Origin'. and this is a subject of debate, but my personal shift from Single to 'Invention Origin' is lvl 32 (lvl 35 IOs). This means that will notice an improvement in your characters output. significantly, between these transitions.

    Plus, as an old SG mate said once, and it's always stuck with me: 'Wow, it's a totally different game once you get stamina'

    This is 10000% true with a scrapper :P You'll find nothing but love for yours, no matter what it is :P
  13. Then 'rated' is off the menu :P

    Trying to keep this as casual and as fun as possible. As Hey Man said, it's in the MotD, which i take to mean that it's going ahead this tuesday. I'm calling this a dry run- testing out the mechanism before I start telling everyone 'Hey look, look what it can do everyone'. etc.

    here are some final thoughts:

    Each toon can only be in one team that evening.

    Swapping toons in/out of a team, although each week is completely fine, is not permitted during the evening (so as to prevent, say, knowing the other team;s lineup and bringning in exaclty what you need to defeat them easily. Despite the poor explanation, It should promote fairness amongst the teams)

    Method:

    The teams are 3 v 3 (at least for this tuesday, the 'experiment). Either get your team ready beforehand and e-mail me the details ingame, or turn up on the night and PuG a team, and do the same.

    Once all the teams have nominated a leader to e-mail me the lineup, i'll write the names down and the listings etc, and then e-mail *both* the leaders their line-up (i.e, who they;re facing first)

    From here, i've little extra influence, the teams are then responsible for arranging their own match, so long as it's 'custom team battle' (or whatever it's called), and that it's fair. Once done, the leaders e-mail me the score, and i tally it up (Easy enough to check if the truth has been told)

    I then e-mail their next match up. rince and repeat.

    *hopefully* some fun will be had along the way :P

    I'm so very worried that this doesn't sound alright, and that this logic is nothing but, ill-logic. Does this sound like something that would work?

    Also: Level ranges. 40+ (50 preferred, but individual teams can exemp in their matches- though that does being up a certain debait on fairness...but i'm leaving that for now)

    See some of you tuesday!

    (ps. Think it would be a welcome idea to open a thread in the "pvp and arena' section where i can publish the listings? Would that upset anyone? I personally think that'd be a nice touch, but i'm unsure...)
  14. Re: Rated. Perhaps only for the top 'league'? 'With great power comes great responsibility...'etc :P

    That's true regarding people who can't make it regularly. It's going to be a rocky slope to begin with I feel, but interesting. Like a good wine, this is going to take some time to mature into something great, i feel

    Ta Maelwys, you're a star!
  16. I think what Shannon is rather subtly saying, is that taking anything from the Presence pool on a Tanker is completely redundant, with Taunt being in the 2ry, and the inherent tanker power.
  17. Well, steve, no need to be so modest, I had you in mind when I was conjuring images of the 'premier division' teams, that people strive to challenge each week :P

    And i'm glad you like it! Hope we'll see you there.


    Also: I presume everyone is ok with all of these matches being rated? I guess for those that look at everyone's info card when they meet them (*shifty eyes*), it'll be nice to have numbers other than: 1500. 0. 0. 0. 0. on it :P
  18. Sorry to hear that Vixen

    Apologies that it's mainly based on when I'm free. I could probably do something Saturday evenings providing that this goes down well. I was torn between the two tbh, week or weekend. I don't want to clash with ship-raids and Task forces (which, at least for me, are set for weekends a while in advance at times)

    and @Princey, *grin* at your Lolcat :P, semi-welcome to the forums from me (3rd post, sorry if they're months apart :P), and letting people know would be a blessing, thankyou!

    I intend to let a DefiantEvents MOD know, put it in the MotD and prepare for next tuesday

    W00T W00T! I'll be there .

    Also note that Dark Spider often drives some zone PvP on Thursdays. Zonal however. Also, however, any I've been to so far have been a lot of fun and very friendly.

    Ah, that's quite recent isn't it? Born from a rather Awesome RV scrap.

    yes, those are very fun!. Glad i won't clash with that.

    I think the main reason i've tried to push arena, is that it's instanced. Less chance of (wrongly) asking people to leave X and Y alone because it's an 'event'
  20. welcome to the forums!

    also, that's very true. I do intend to keep paper records of it, so if there is enough interest, and it grows to a level where divisions are a good solution, i should be able to keep on top of it.
