  1. Howdy Protector, first time long time!!!
    Here is my take / story on the whole Hami thing.
    I avoided the Hive when the raids first started for among other reasons I’m generally nonsocial or as I prefer to think of it as being a social minimalist. My SG mates can attest to this point
    I started to hear about how great the Hami drops were so I decided to check it out.
    The first time I went, I didn’t know what the heck was going on, it was all very confusing. That was back when the buds dropped the Hami-Os and there was definitely some coordinated snaking going on, but all’s fair in a public zone. Not to long after that the drop was changed to 1 Hami-O per peep at Hamination. I attended about 40-50 raids after that, all public cuz I ain’t special… well not that kind of special. (Brief side note I got kicked from a notorious private raid channel 30 seconds after being invited when I asked when the raid was going to take place… Man did I say something wrong? LOL)
    I had a BLAST!!! I met many very cool peeps and even saw some I really didn’t care for but we all worked together and for two hours per day we had a common goal and the vast majority of the time we kicked the snot out of old Hamidon, minus the few occasions of yellow death. My SG mates threaten to put me in Hami rehab because they knew where I was every day from 5:00pm PST to whenever. Eventually I got a group of my SG mates attending regularly and it was fun kind of being the Hamidon tour guide, not to be mistaken for a south rock pacifist.
    I tried air leader a few times but that didn’t work out well being a squishy without PS, it was hard to get people to get to follow me with the line “yellow, the one over my corpse.” Either way being a team leader was fun anyway.
    Then the Nerf bat hit and whammo, no more raids
    In most cases I think that a Hami-O is still better than SO++ but that’s just me.
    I know that some people have left the game since then but I believe there is enough new (not noob) blood out there to gather a pretty good group. What about setting some future date and time for a Hamidon raid for old time’s sake? Maybe Saturday August 20 5:00PST for instance? Any old raid leaders still got one more in them?
