Try working for the military... My Sergeant is breathing down my neck that he may make me stay till 7 (I.m off at 4:30)! He doesn't believe in video games and thinks they are the path to the devil... if that's the case... Where do I sign to give my soul away (My body already belongs to the military)!
Having to go to work at 1:30pm EST, I think I was one of the 1st to destroy a portal in Talos.
When I saw that it was listed as a Unique villain, and read the info that something evil will prolly come thru it and that it should be destroyed ASAP, I went to work with my new blinding fast Martial Arts style....he he!
This was before the announcement was broadcast.
Now I have to wait till 10 to continue to kick dimensional tushy. Argh!!!!
Guardian:
Fist Law Scrapper MA/Inv Gneiss Guy Tanker Stone/Axe Dr.Killjoy Stalker Kat/Nin Dark Fist Law Brute DA/Inv
Straight Shooter TA/A Defender
Freedom:
Mestre de Jogo Scrapper MA/SR Afro Dizzy Yak Tanker Ice/SS
I've a couple chars on Freedom though my main is on Guardian. I'm a NorthWestie though 
(Seattle area and most of those I know are on Virtue)
First thing I did upon logging on was trip over a Rularuu expedition in Talos and help smash their portal, too. Very cool.
At least I'm not the only one missing work because of this ... lol, it's been a lonnnnnnng lunch for me today. Cryptic, guys, please ... could the big invasion event (whatever it is) possibly occur over the weekend sometime?
Otherwise I'll probably miss it, and of course ... the world revolves around me. I think?

Please try MA arc ID 351455, "Shard Stories: Scavenger's Hunt." Originally created for the Dr. Aeon contest, it explores the wild potential of one of the City's most concept-rich but content-poor settings: the Shadow Shard.
34 minutes and I'm on the way... dang and I already used up my kitchen pass/play credits this week... Maybe I'll give the wife a credit card and send her to the outlet mall.
Spent three hours on three different servers looking but never saw a portal or an alien. That was a profound bummer.
I've found that they are sparse, but they do exist. The biggest group I found were in the higher level zones. Try the NE corner of bricks, under the bridge. They were all over Founders and Peregrine about 2 hours ago (yeah for lunch break)
Well, approximately 30 minutes ago the infinity sever went down. The only thing I can figure is that they are systematically tweaking each server after the initial release. Any other opinions?
Rassumfrassumrackinfrackin--PC is DEAD!!! *cries* Go figure I miss out on the TRULY COOL STUFF... *whimpers, moans* Y'all have to let me know how it goes, I'll be scouring the boards as I can borrow PC's at work. 
Fight on, Heroes! Fight on, my Sisters--Dynamo Girl is with you in spirit!
Hope your HMOs are all payed up...Medicon is here to save the day!

I logged in over lunch myself. My toons are level 21 and 22, so I was in Talos. You can find some 23 and 24 invaders on an island west on the highway that runs by the Founders' Falls entrance. It was a bit of a large group, and I started to run when I was getting my *** kicked, but I accidently shut of integration while trying to activate super jump, so I got held and killed Oh well, debt is a scrappers best friend
Here are the aliens

Spent the last hour or so on virtue patrolling bricks for Rikti and Ru. This has been an incredible event! major kudos to the Team at Cryptic! Heros by the dozens banding together - regardless of team or group affiliation - with no cries of kill-stealing just a genuine sense of "we're all in this together"
If you thought you felt like a superhero before... All I can say is WOW!
[b]Frost Lightning - lvl 50 Ele/Ice[/b]
Kick Asterisk - lvl 43 MA/SR
Frigid Bridget- lvl 20 Ice/Cold
GrammaRadiation lvl 20 Rad/Rad
Helena Ann Baskett lvl 29 Necro/Poisen
The Very Bad Seed lvl 6 Plant/Thorn
Found 6 mobs and destroyed them. Found one portal and destroyed it with another Hero helping me.
Thats four mobs in Founders Falls and one mob in Steel Canyon.
FYI.... The mobs I destroyed (not arrested) were two levels below mine and were tough. They killed me twice when I soloed, mostly because they were able to shut off all of my toggles. Watch out Scrappers, no toggles means a farely quick death.
Portal has an insane amount of health and took me and the other hero about 5 minutes to take down while having to clear the area of about 3 spawns from the portal at the same time.
Was alot of fun but the creatures are very tough. Be careful out there.
Man did I get a ton of auto badges when I logged on heh,heh.
It's just NOT FAIR! I think my boss is a Rikti. 4:45 he comes in and says we have some testing to do! farklenuts! Must resist the urge to toss a WG and hit him with slug then burst.
Gonna be at least 8 before I can hit the bricks in paragon.
on the day my game card expires...and I can't get one for a couple days...noooooooooooooooooooooo.!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beware the Evil Eye! Sibling is hiding under overpasses while her En recharges. These are some tough mothers, at least The Family can be worked around by cues, these things come right out of thin air. Need Team....Losing consciousness....Out of Meds...
If you really wanna suffer tune in MMOradio like i did and listen to the invasion :P
1 more hour and i can go home!

Such a punk I dont get off until 9:30. so thats... 4 1/2 hours? then a 45min drive home then the upload. I like odd hours... 
Man, I just got internet back after 3 weeks. I've been suffering from withdrawl from CoH, and then Guardian goes down for the count! I wanna just go bust up some freaky-deaky aliens!
I got off-duty at 4:30, raced home, got stopped by the MPs and ticketed for speeding, logged on and.... Justice goes down.... (eyes tear up) All that for my server to go down! (Cries like a real man!)... (throws temper tantrum!)
In a time like this there should be an appropriate quote, Like Up, Up an Away. No, umm Golly Gee Batman, That does not work either. Hmm how bout Dammit I'm at work now. Please , dont't start until I get home from work. Im on the West Coast to. Rats
