What are the ideas and interest in another lvl 50 ladder/league
for the summer?
Would any teams that participated here bring something to the
table for another lvl 50 event?
Good luck to those of you that stick around.

Jesus Christ.
Love you kids, but everything after my previous post - TL;DR.
We only ever waited out teams when it became apparent that this was the new strategy.
My THU toons have never slotted anything other than TO's. I'll settle for speaking for myself and not the group as a whole, though I trust that they also have only ever remained within the rules.
**hugs Bug**

Hiya Masque!
I couldn't agree with you more. You can ask the rest of THU, I'm really disheartened that we even have to consider playing dirty just to stand a chance anymore. We've only ever played (and won) by the rules.

I guess what I'm trying to say is- guys- its a freaking lvl 5 pvp event, EVERYONE needs to stop trying to be so "epic" at it.
I'll be honest, I stopped caring when people stopped wanting to actually fight. I'm not big on wasting my time counting a clock for the hell of it.
Tactics schmactics.

Sadly, I will not be able to join this match, what with having a life on the other side of the world and a job that I have to go to. I'm not leaving work for PvP that ends up being at 11am Friday my time.
Best of luck guys.

In regards to the Paula Deen/THU match.
So after the challenge post, pst's were sent back and forth and
originally we agreed to a match sat. night at 10pm eastern because
that's what was asked by THU.
"[Local] iSweat Butter: in case you are just ignorant, this is where your team accepted the challenge for 2 hours ago: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showpost.php?p=4216926&postcount=248" and referenced this thread, it shows that the original offer stood for 10pm EST Friday, not Saturday. Obs and I were online Friday night at 10pm EST. Sabre and Vyn were on for hours afterwards. We were never contacted by a member of PDFC.
Here's a quick recap of what's happening in the life of THU that made this weekend such a clusterf*ck. I assume that you're already all aware of the fact that we're spread across three timezones, with myself and Blokey in Australia. Primarily we're the reason that it's been so difficult to schedule matches that work for everyone.Quote:Originally Posted by PiP3R
This was the time I informed the team of.
Then, I get an offline tell late thurs night saying that fri night
would actually be better for them (THU); after we agreed to sat night
and I informed the team.
Unfortunately we weren't able to get 3 ppl on since they thought
the match was sat. night like originally agreed to.
So then fri night we agreed that we would have the match sat. at
10 pm eastern.
So here we are sat. night 10 pm eastern and THU isn't here.
It gets better.
I pst one of their members asking where they are, and they reply
that they thought the match was midnight eastern on sat.
BUT, not only did they think that...
[Tell] HlghIy UnIlkeIy: the time that i stated .. i was under that impression for 3 days now .. no changes that i know of
...apparently they thought for 3 days now.
The lack of communication and back and forth is frustrating.
It's bad enough that THU can only play at 2 specific times on the weekend. One time being at like 7am central (wth), and the other time
is actually 10 pm eastern (the reason why the match was scheduled at that time).
So out of good sportsmanship we kindly decide to wait another 2 hours for them. And now its 12:30 pm eastern, and only one of them is here.
We can't keep being asked diff times and then they not show up.
We have pics and chat logs of this night if there are any questions
about what happened.
We're asking for a DQ and credit for the win plz!!
Again, we've waited over 2 1/2 hours for them and still nothing.
Our team has been patient and accommodating enough.
DQ plz!
In addition to that, another teammate hasn't even unpacked boxes at his new house and has been trying to get his internet connected before anything else so that we could all be there. I'm going to hazard a guess that Obs' PC is having issues (as it has been for a couple of weeks), which would explain why people weren't around tonight. These aren't excuses, it's just what our lives are like recently. I know there was a lot of back and forth between individuals from both sides regarding last night/tonight's match. I'm not pointing fingers because I wasn't involved in the exchange.
THU is obviously willing to work to make sure that our team is available when match dates/times are set in stone and agreed to. It seems that this one kept getting confused/reschedule for whatever reasons. I'm sure the rest of the ladder will agree that, while we may be inconvenient for scheduling due to our time restrictions, we are not difficult to organise matches with; certainly not to the level that you're claiming.
To ask that THU be disqualified is a bit extreme, but if this is the outcome, so be it. We're adults, we have lives and things happen that put CoH/PvP on the backburner.
We are willing to reschedule for another time, but as it's Sunday afternoon here in Australia (and we both have work tomorrow) I'm not sure that we'll be successful in organising anything before the close of the weekend.

As far as any other drama, I think everyone agrees this is just a fun event and a chance for people to play with their friends and joke around while running around mashing buttons with our faces. I hope that everyone does keep that in mind and that there isn't any silly beind the scenes drama that have plagued recent leagues or events.
Well said, Masque. We've (THU) run a fair few FFA's for practice and to really get the feel for our characters. Lord knows we talk a lot of smack during them (I think that's the first time I've ever used that slang. It makes me lawls.)
As I've told Sabre, I'm more than happy to run practice bouts with THU during the week as long as it works with my dumb time zone. Also, I'm most easily contacted via Skype (leicroft) if things come up, so feel free to add/poke me there.

It was really great to watch the 3 v. 3 bouts between THU and Clowns this morning. Nicely done, gents.

Bout 2: THU wins 29-25 -

STEAMPUNK BOOOOOOSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Teh Gabby is excited!
For a few months I've been running a steampunk based SG blueside called "The Society of Saints & Madmen". With the introduction of the new booster I'm sure there's going to be an influx of sweet steampunky goodness. Should you find your new (or updated) steampunk toon in need of a home feel free to PM me here or poke me globally @Gabriella of Mercy!

From the Infinity SG Roster:
"Nova Killers - former top 20 SG (slowly falling due to inactivity) maxed out user friendly base. I have recently moved the bulk of my toons to Freedom due to Infinity underpopulation. I have started a new sg on Freedom. I am interested in "selling" or trading SGs. Nova Killers currently has 2-3 low active rug rats running around. Nothing more besides a great maxed base and a lot of privacy. Since the active toons have left, I have used it mainly for my personal hoarding of enhancements and salvage. It worked very well for me in its prime. I have no use for it. During its prime, we spawned an "overfill" supergroup Nova Killers 2.0 which I have already handed down to an online friend. I have also inherited "Chaos Legacy" VG which has no active players. Im not sure what the prestige total is, but the base plot is maxed and it has double energy/control rooms. Since I dont have anything left on Infinity, these SG/VG are available for trade or influence/infamy.
It was a hard decision to leave Infinty, especially starting a SG from scratch and sculpting it into a top 20 with about 5 active players and their alts. Since all of them have moved on and there is little activity on Inifinity compared to other servers, its time to pass on the keys to a group of people or that special "solo" player that would like a VERY nice fortress of solitude.
Good Luck and farewell Infinity!.....I can be found @tapp "
So...there ya go.

Working on an ill/emp for pvp, otherwise I'm limited for Freedom toons. Am willing to transfer whatever.
