  1. Thats right. Six years in a row. Woah.

    So I thought, wouldn't it be great to get six teams together to run the original six TFs.
    Some are longer that others but still.
    That means we will need, 3+4+5+6+7+4 => 29 tankers, of which 6 leaders.
    (Only have to do one of the Posi parts)

    I've been marshalling the last of my prize reserves as this will be the last Tanker Tuesday I will be leading up. So why not go all out. I mean I gave away around 1.5B at the 5 year, lets see if I cant double that.

    So who's with me?

  2. Yes it is. Tanker Tuesday #72, the 6 year Anniv. is on the 5th of October.
  3. And TT #71 was its normal success.

    Three TF teams headed out:
    Posi (Part 1)
    Psyche
    ITF

    We completed the ITF in 58mins with just 6 tankers (started with 7).

    TT #72 6 Year Anniv is next month.
  4. What I would like to see is Fitness be inhernet, but not take sets =P
    If you want set slottable Fitness, you have to use power picks for it.

    Just my $0.02 for balance

    I've already stepped down from the game. I used to play a lots of times a week, now its a few hours a month. I just didn't make any fan fare about it.

    Going Rogue really did nothing for me as I already had top badgers on both sides. I don't feel like getting them all again on both sides with different characters.

    That aside, I'm sure TT will carry on.

    Which brings me to October's 6 year TT.....
    My last one.
    Been helping with running TT for over 4 years now, time for me to step aside.
    The slot is open for anyone to take up the reigns and keep the flame alit.

    What I would like to see for the the 6 year event are 6 teams of tanks, one for each of the original 6 TFs. Not a race, because the TFs are not equal, but just to have teams of tanks taking them all down at once.

    This may or may not be as feasible with some tanks going to the dark side, but lets see what the ol' bluesiders can accomplish. And of cource, if there are more than 6 teams formed, other TFs can also be run as well as non-TF teams for those that dont want to partake in the random fun.

  7. Minor Emergency:

    I need people to step up in my absence tonight.

    My wife was in the ER this afternoon, so my attention is needed elsewhere this evening.
    (She is fine now, but I need to make sure of that.)

  8. We can do that, mind you that level 11 tankers have alot more D than 0. The "Slobberknocker" PvP event (level 5) at the 3yr event yielded few kills because of the high hps and lower damage values.
  9. Yup.

    70 months of Tanker Tuesdays.
    Wow.
    Just wow.

    Seeing how we had a nifty little celebration last month, and 6 year is just around the bend, no super special events this month. Just the normal tanker goodness.

  10. The A/C unit will draw power, but this may not be a simple power issue but rather one of EM bleeding. Make sure your connectors do not have any cracks in the shielding or jacks. High bandwidth signals are easily jammed from background EM, and some electronics with high gain amplifiers inside tend to not be shielded, and just flood the area around them with "noise".

    I would:

    A) Connect directly to the modem and check the signal levels at the modem. Verify they are ok.
    1) Do this with alot of other stuff on
    2) Do this with almost nothing else on in house

    B) Examine my wall jacks and my cables for defects.



    *Side note: 2 years ago I had a nasty issue with my cable modem losing lock, signal going south for no reason. Took almost 4 months to resolve. I got a new router, new cable modem, strung all new lines in the house, had 2 new cables run from the curb. FINALLY, after pleading with the cable company, they went upstream to find a partially damaged switch, which after all the new lines and equipment my cable modem performance is actually better than the next tier above me for bandwidth even though I am not paying for it. tl;dr This sounds like hardware, not a software problem.
  11. They movie still looks "meh".

    Seriously. All that "star" power means they will be fighting for every second of it during the movie. Its got the Govanator... for like 2 minutes. Woo hoo. I'd rather see Rambo (the first and ONLY Rambo movie) a few times, than this.
    The A-Team at least realized it was a film about having fun while exploding stuff instead of trying make itself into some serious movie with a plot.
  12. 1) Yes.

    2) Yes. I can lead the tanker taunt, hami taunt, or overall, but I am limited in my abilities as a targetter. +P

  13. Super Smexy Turnout everyone.

    The mothership raid was a little rough but we did it.

    2 Respec Teams
    1 Citadel Team
    1 "Other" Team

    Over 1B inf and a few IOs were handed out to all that showed up. Bonus prizes for the kill shot on UKon and for smexy costumes. =P

    As I said in TankHQ: Thank you to everyone that shows up every month (or week for the other servers). TT wouldn't be what it is without people showing up.

    Next week is the big 7-zero. Nothing really planned special... but we will see what unfolds.


    Tank on.

    7pmCDT/8pmEDT Mothership Raid - War Zone
    8pmCDT/9pmEDT Tanker Tuesday - IP Gate in Kings Row

    Its that time of the month again. But since its our 69th little get together, lets do something special.

    The attire of the day is sexy. Check the armor at the door, you'll get it back when we are done. There will be prizes.

    First off:
    We will be starting at hour early 7pmCDT/8pmEDT with a Mothership Raid. Note, 7pmCDT/8pmEDT start means thats when we leave for Pylon 17. I recommend being there a little early. Higher tankers are recommended. I don't want a zone full of sub-20s.

    After that wraps up its off to Kings Row for the Regular TT festivities. 8pmCDT/9pmEDT
    TFT hasn't set its plan yet, so I am calling out the Respec trial for the TTT. We can put together teams in the three level ranges for those that want to perfect thier glowing tans courtesy of Paragon's finest engineers.

    And as usual, there will be non Task Force teams as well.

    I wont promise prizes for everyone, but we shall see how it all unfolds.

    Um is it too early for me to Rogue and join the them instead? =P
  20. **** Thread Rez!

    And gratz. Now you start that push to get them through high school! Woo Hoo.

    Or not so woo hoo. My eldest managed a 2.29 for her 9th grade GPA. 2.29. Words can not express the sadness at this. Maybe its not fair me and my wife were 4.0'ers in high school but still, 2.29. I have toons with a higher accuracy mod that that. =P
  21. You cant get merits until level 35, but anyone can enter the War Zone now.
  22. Excellent. Thanks for pulling it off in my absence, UMann and Myr.

    I got through the first game of girl's game. And right as I was about to leave for hockey, lightning, so the game was called. Woot! I didnt have to miss any of the game.
    Then I hustled to the ice arena, where we faced against some guys way way more skilled than me. But we won 13-8. (I know 13-8.. hockey? Cope with it. I was still +6 on defense. The other line was a sieve.) But I curled up when I got home, too damn sore to log in. And I have another game tomorrow. Ugh. 15 years ago, this was fun. Now Im just old.

    But as I alluded to, its TT #69 next month.
    Plan for an extended TT. We will start 1 hour early with a Mothership Raid TT-style.
    Then move to the wall. Form up and move out. Prizes, IOs, mullah; to be dispensed.
    Smexy Tankers For the Win!
