Since everyone else is posting to this thread, I thought I'd stop in and say "Hi" and mention that the whole thing is probably a Rangle Plot™.

This Saturday the 23rd we'll be on Defiant. Due to a change in a family event I won't be able to make it. Tired Angel accepted my request to lead the event, so he'll be our acting "organizer" for this TT (thanks much Tired for stepping in). TT vets feel free to lend a hand with team/TF setup and help get things rolling.

I'll be there in spirit!

Thanks all,

Very cool. We had a great turnout on Freedom, 3 missions team and an ITF.
Thanks to all who joined us in the Tanking fun!

Sorry to hear it LSK, best wishes to you and your family. Family comes first, do what you have to to help them during this time.

Next stop is Freedom on the 19th!

Also we're back on Defiant on the 23rd!

See ya' all soon!

A very fun TTJ last night! Great job everyone!

Next stop is Freedom! See you all there!

We had a great turnout for Tanker Tuesday Justice last night! Thanks to everyone who showed and made it a great event! We had at least two Task Force teams, an ITF and a Manti, and three missions teams running.

Many thanks to the team leads!! And thank you to all who showed up for the event!

Furture TTJ events:

August TTJ, I'd like us to run an all Tanker BAF! So, start leveling your toons now!

September TTJ (or possibly a special event) All Tanker Hami, get your Tank in level range (45+)!

Hi all,

As my "reward" for Brutal Monday, I got another "Brutal Monday" at work. Looks like I'll be a little late to TTJ tonight (see clicky for details). Please get things going in my absence. I'll be there as soon as I can.

I only play a Rogue on Mondays ... most of my Brutes are Blue side now.

Hi all,

I'm looks like I'm caught at work for a bit longer. So, I might be late. If I'm not there could one (or several) of the TT Vets start the zone announcements at 5:30pm PT, get Pali to the meeting point around 5:50pm (if he shows), start the discussion for TFs and get things rolling (if I'm later that 6pm).

Thanks,
Warboss

Great question Fin,

As always will depend on our turnout. I don't think we've done an all Tanker BAF here yet, so that might be a good choice (if we can get enough 50's to show). Otherwise it's an open slate. I'd say Cit, Sister, or Manti but we also had a strong showing of lower level toons last time (I think that was here on Justice...), that being the case, we could start walking them up through the TF's towards their TF Commander badge. So, either Posi or Synapse could be good choices.

Or, we could announce a BAF for next TTJ and give folks time to level toons up... just making suggestion off the top of my head...

The new TF\SF o' the week will be Terra Volta (44-50) (from Major Richard Flagg in Peregrine Island) / Tree of Thorns (44-50) (from Ractespriel in the Nerva Archipelago), so those are possibilities too.

TTJ tomorrow! Be there or be squishy!

I wonder who LSK means....

Anyways, as LSK has pointed out TT is this Tuesday the 12th, here on Justice!

Tanker Tuesday Justice (TTJ) starts at 6pm PT\9pm ET, all power sets and levels are welcome, as long as you're a Tank!

Meet us in King's Row by IP Gate (line up on the wall please) and we'll get teams set and rolling from there!

Take care all, and see ya' in game!

Brutal Monday tonight, see ya' then!

Cool, hope to see you there. You can always shoot an announce on the Brutal Mondays Channel (channel name is Brutal Mondays) or on JFA210 or JU, also can send me a tell directly and I'll do my best to get you on a team.

Yep, was another great TT on Champion, I was on the Sister Psyche TF and had a blast! Thanks for being a great host and home of TT Champion!

Next week is Justice! See you all there!

Hi all,

Last Monday was the 4th of July and, due to pervious family commitments and general hecticness here I only posted to the Brutal Monday channel with the option to "reschedule or play with whoever shows".

As some fellow Brutal Mondayers pointed out, that really wasn't a great solution, nor did it server to provide the needed Brutal Monday fix everyone was looking forward to. So, in the spirit of Brutal Monday, and because Monday's can never be brutal enough, we'll run another Brutal Monday this coming Monday July the 11th!

Meet in the RWZ on the East side of the Main Entrance Bunker at 6pm PT\9pm ET. All levels and power sets welcome, as long as you're a Brute!

For those new to Brutal Mondays, Brutal Mondays are a player run all Brute teaming event. We run missions, trials, TFs and pretty much whatever the game has to offer.

Come join the fun and hope to see you there!

Welcome,

Watch out for Philly, blame Rangle, Tanker Tuesdays every 2nd Tuesday of the month, Brutal Mondays first Monday of every month (except this one as the 4th and family commitments caused issues), Hamidon Raids Monday, Wednesday and sometimes on Friday nights, Mother ship raids seem to happen on the weekends and after Hamis, and keep an eye/ear on the channels always something going on.

Welcome! Join the fun!

We had a great time on Liberty! Two mission teams and a Sister Psyche TF! Great fun! Thanks all for joining us!

Hi all,

Here is the schedule for July. See ya' in game!

7/5/2011 Champion
7/12/2011 Justice
7/19/2011 Freedom
7/23/2011 Defiant
7/26/2011 Guardian

Agreed, I think TankHQ is the official unofficial channel of the TT Tour.

Hi all,

I've been thinking about how to increase the number of TTs, in gerneral, and on the Euro servers for some time (ever since Hyperstrike1 alerted me to the server list merge, months before the it happened). As Tired mentioned if we saturate Saturday's with TTs we run the risk of event conflicts not only in game, but also in RL for our core touring group ("the heart" of the TT Tour). And, as Finduilas mentioned there is a potential language issue on the French and German servers, not that learning either of these languages would be bad for me, but it does present a logistical boundry when we start there.

So, what's the best way to proceed? I like the idea of more TTs, I always have and always will, but I think we should grow the interest on the British servers, which we have established, and "tour" the others until we can get the pulse of Saturdays.

As of right now we have established the 3rd Saturday of the month as our "Euro Tour Date", how about we set that as either Defiant or Union, choose another Saturday for the other one (perhaps the first Sat), then look at attendence. We could then choose another Saturday for the remaining servers to "tour" to and build interest that way. We could expand to set dates when the server population requests it (as we've done here on the US servers), and if either the 1st or 3rd Sat on the British servers doesn't take, we can use that as our "Tour Date".

Also, don't forget about i21 and the "Free to Play" We'll pick up a VIP server then too (not sure on the details).

Due to RL commitments I'm not sure I'd be able to coordinate the TT tour on the US servers as well as give the Euro servers the attention they deserve. If someone would like to step forward and coordinate the TT Euro servers I'd be happy to give some advice and guidelines. The most important being, Make sure everyone has a team, before the event coordinator starts a TF. I think this is a major reason so many folks return and join the TT tour. They know they can count on getting a team and have fun playing their Tank.

The TT vets really keep an eye on who's showing up and when and work hard to make sure everyone is on a team. I don't want to lose this underlying (almost unspoken) TT rule by expanding too quickly or being in a rush to get on all servers "now".

I'd like to once again thank all the folks who help make the TT Tour work. Without the efforts and dedication of so many players we wouldn't be where we are today, and looking to expand to new servers.

Thanks all, and please give us your thoughts, feedback and suggestions.

Doh! Rangle beat me to the post, and in my rush I to get this one up I overlooked it!
