Pinnacle Events

Hopefully this thread will be pinned down soon so we can easily keep track of upcoming events.

Upcoming events:
* For those with the test server running, I will continue holding Monday Night Intern Battle Royales, maybe even with special guests, every Monday night at 9 PM. Come join us and die repeatedly at level 5 to have the most fun. When issue 4 hits live, these battle royales will continue weekly at the same time on Pinnacle, with results being posted every Tuesday as well as an Intern Championship awarded to the hero with the most kills each week.

* -Spoiler- Early foreshadowing has started for a new event being planned for the launch of issue 4 on Pinnacle only here and here. More information (and out-of-character instructions) for this event will be posted within hours of issue 4 hitting the live servers.

So this supposed event is a Pinnacle exclusive?

Yes. The Mayor's loyal entourage will be on hand at all events, screening contestants and breaking knees. We would have just gone with the traditional hand stamps, but ink costs money.

Yes indeed it is. Sadly, the event won't feature any new villains or anything. But hopefully people who participate will enjoy it as the story builds on the forum and Carl and Sons continue it in-game during the event. With a tiny bit of roleplaying and a tiny bit of immersion into the game environment, I think it should be a blast.

If by battalion commander, you mean "cannon fodder." We'll all be cannon fodder (you'll see what I mean when the event draws near).

Depends, can you stay drunk for an entire deployment? If we give up an Irish Catholic chaplain, the substitute had better be able to fill his shoes.

That could be a rough life. Under (US) chaplain rules, they have to be willing to minister to all service personnel, without promulgating their own beliefs to said personnel.

Note, all members of the 555th will be required to purchase a uniform, three cases of hard liquor, and a life insurance policy. That last one isnt strictly necessary, but since we'll be dying a lot it makes fiscal sense.
