  1. Thanks for hosting us on Saturday Union, we had a great time!

    Don't forget, Liberty is our stop this week! See ya' there!

    1 Tanker only

    Okay, just a few responses to the thread in general:

    First, at Tanker Tuesdays we do help people learn to Tank. We may not announce the Tanking 101 stuff at every gathering, but we do tend to show and employ most of the better Tanking tactics (which can be somewhat difficult as a keeping a mass of Tankers from jumping into mobs and mopping the floor with them, prior to explaining tactics, is pretty much impossible). But, we do try our best to bestow as much of our Tanking knowledge as possible as well as pass on build advice and lessons learned from our own experiences.

    Second, we've pretty much run all the TF/Trials with all Tanks (the point of Tanker Tuesdays). Just did an all Tanker BAF on Champion...

    Third, yes, in the process of all the chaos, mass of mobs, and general banter, we tend to have a lot of fun!

    Forth, I like having two or more Tanks on team, especially the folks from TT.

    So to sum up, I've never been disappointed in running with more than one Tank on a team, but to each their own.

    Why?
    If eight Tanks showed up and started whuppin' on me, I'd run too!

So the all scrapper STF got done before the all tanker purely because I hate teamin with other tankers if I am tanking. Scrapper teams failed till someone with a totally tank mindset changed AT and done it for them just because they would never be seen dead tanking for tanks.
    wha...?

    Meh, all it tells me is that leader had no idea how to run the team w/o it being a predefiined setup.
  6. Sorry a bit late to this dance, just got home from work, but if you're up for a few more suggestions...

    Elect/Ice (I'm actually enjoying IM on this toon... pssst, don't tell anyone )
    Elect/Stone (as you've already posted)

    Fire/DB
    Fire/Kin (as you've already posted)

    Dark/Stone (just because Endurance is so overrated)
    Dark/Kin (because I don't think I've seen one...)

    Ice/Stone (because of the color tinting/theme possibilities)
    Ice/DB

    Invuln/Kin
    Invuln/Fire

    WP/Fire
    WP/Ice

    SD/Stone (Lots of bouncie)
  7. I wanted to thank everyone who showed up to our Virtue TT. And, before I forget (something I'm very prone to ), thank Rangle and The Cynical One for leading teams. We had three teams that I know of (I was the other leader, if you're counting) two running Citadel, and a missions team. So, a good turnout.

    Thanks much for participating in TT Virtue! We'll be back in August!

    Also, remember our Euro Tour will be heading to Union this coming Saturday (the 25th). We'll meet in King's Row by Independence Gate (as always ) at Noon PT\3pm ET\8pm BST and get things rolling from there.
  8. And speaking of bumping the thread....

    This week's TT is on Virtue! (on the 21st)

    Also, next Saturday is our Euro Tour. On the 25th we'll be on Union. Meet in King's Row at Noon PDT\3pm EDT\8pm BST.
  9. Yeah, that was fun. Although, I'm thinking I need to start leveling an Invuln on Champ....
  10. Next TT is on Justice the 14th! See ya' there!
  11. The pain doesn't come from the agreeing with him, the pain is from when he's right... just kiddin' bud

    With the responses we've gotten so far, I'm going to go ahead and call the 25th for Union. We'll meet at our usual Euro time (Noon PDT\3 EDT\8 BST) at IP Gate in King's Row.

    I'm thinking either Posi's again or perhaps Synapse's as most of us "Touring Tanks" are still in our "early levels".

    Tired and all other Euro Tanker enthusiasts, please let us know if we need to adjust the above schedule to better accommodate playing times on your servers.

    Here's the revised schedule:

    6/7/2011 Champion (see Acemace's post here for details)
    6/14/2011 Justice (Steampunk theme and sewer trial?)
    6/21/2011 Virtue
    6/25/2011 Union
    6/28/2011 Liberty

    (U.S. TT times remain at 6pm PT\9pm ET)

    See ya' all soon!
  12. Hi all,

    Here's the schedule for June.

    6/7/2011 Champion (see Acemace's post here for details)
    6/14/2011 Justice
    6/21/2011 Virtue
    6/25/2011 EU Tour
    6/28/2011 Liberty

    Regarding our newly added TT on the Euro servers, we can either hit Defiant again or alternate to Union this month. Let me know what you think.

    Lets hope this is the first of many
    Well, we'd might as well start a discussion on this. How about the 3rd Saturday of the month for "TT" on Defiant? We could then tour to the other EI servers on either another Saturday, or maybe a Sunday? Ideas, comments and suggestions are welcome.

    And, Triumph on the 31st (remember, I won't be attending this one, so Tanker Tuesday vets, please keep things rolling. )

    I'm actually looking to join an all-Tanker SG. If you guys either revive Tanks A Lot or decide to create TankHQ, let me know. I'll definitely hop on board and help out with earning prestige.
    Hi T, I'll see what we can do. Either way I'll let you know.
  15. Tanker Tuesday on Defiant today!!
  16. Hiya' Pep,

    Next time your on shoot me tell so I can get an invite to "Tanks Alot" and I can get our Freedom Tanks enrolled. Or, I can start a TankHQ either is good.
  17. Huh, my pervious post didn't seem to make it (it's either a Rangle Plot or Hami attempting to get even) ... hopefully we don't end up with a double post from me...

    First off let me say... Witty NoooOOOOoooo!! I hope your system is out of the shop soon and ready for TT on the 28th!

    Speaking of which, our first International Tanker Tuesday is only two days away! IF you haven't rolled a Tank up there, now is the time to do so.

    I'd like to thank Tired Angel for being our point person on the EU servers.

    Also a big Nuclear Thanks to LSK and Hyper for getting our EU TankHQ SGs up and running.

    And, special thanks to all TTers who show up every week to participate and help keep the TTs running. Great work all!!

    See you all soon!!
  18. Hi all,

    The Tanker Tuesday Tour is coming to Defiant!! Due to time zone issues and popularity of the event we'll be on Defiant Saturday the 28th of May.

    Tanker Tuesday is a player run all Tanker teaming event that started on Champion years ago. Since then the event has branched out and we've established regular TTs on Justice, Freedom and Virtue (see sig for details). We then "tour" to the other servers on the 4th and 5th (when available) Tuesdays of the month.

    We run Task Forces, Trials, missions and pretty much anything else the game has to offer are the order (depending on turnout).

    All players and power set are welcome, as long as you're a Tank!!

    If interested, meet us in King's Row by Independence Port Gate at noon PDT/3pm EDT/8pm BST and we'll get teams going.

    Hope to see ya' there!
  19. Hi all,

    Just thought I'd pop in and plug our newest TT, "International Tanker Tuesday". As Tired said, we'll be here on the 28th, so roll up a Tank if you don't have one and join the fun!

    I'm sure we'll run the event again, TTs are just TOO BIG to contain!

    Hope to see you there!
  20. Tanker Tuesday on Victory this week!

    And, our first combined Euro TT on Defiant, Saturday the 28th! We'll meet in King's Row by IP Gate at Noon PDT/3pm EST/8pm BST for this event.

    See ya' all soon!
  21. Another great TT, We had 2 TF teams, LGTF and Synapse, and a missions team running. Thanks to all who came out to the event and to our team leads.

    Next TT will be on Victory May 24th!

    On May 28th we'll have the first combined TT on Defiant. Start time will be at High noon PDT, 3pm EDT and 8pm BST. We'll meet in King's Row by IP Gate as usual. (TWO "TTs" in one week!!)

    Then on the 31st we're back stateside for Triumph! I'll probably have to sit this one out as I have a family commitment. If I could get the TT vets to cover for me I'd appreciate it.
  22. And.... TT tomorrow on Freedom!
  23. Wow, great work Hyper, I can't wait until I get time to run out there again. Sadly it will probably a driveby log in until the weekend.

    Hi TBoxer,

    I'd have to check, but I think there's a TankHQ on Freedom... Witty would probably know, unless someone on the thread is in it.

    And I love the idea of possible once a month TT Weekend special for international teaming.

    Prime time for the Euro servers tends to hit about 7.30pm onwards. If you wanted you could easily do from about 1pm PDT which would be about 9pm BST and everything will still be busy. Just in case people didn't want to do an early start for an event.

    Let me know what you think?
    Hi Tired,

    I think that would work. Anyone else have suggestions/imput?

    As for our first TT Tour Euro weekend, how about the 28th of May (this month), maybe at high noon PDT? That would make it about 8pm for our Euro folks and 3pm for our East Coast group.

    We were just on the British servers last night, albeit a bit late BST..., and had a blast. Keep your eye out for us, as many of the TT Touring Group plays on and off at irregular hours.

    If you can Join the TankHQ channel, so you can get in on all the TT chat.

    See ya' soon!
