4-8 hours?! ... MB, how long do you think we can get this done in?
The quickest run I've been on was a little over 4 hours. The next quickest was 6ish hours. The longest was spread over 3 days and was somewhere around 8ish hours.
That team was slightly cursed however. We had some whiney people along who didn't want to stay up past midnight each night, we didn't have a tank, our emp had to be late the second night, and we only had 6 people to start off with.
I'm personally expecting 4-5 hours-ish for my team. The biggest problems with this TF is the massive amounts of travel time and the defeat alls on huge maps.
Edit: I've heard of teams doing it around 3 hours, but those teams were very specialized with a large number of Vet Players who had Team Teleport. Travel times really slow this stupid TF down 
The times listed above are based on runs I've been on, as well as some I've seen Mr. E do.

You might want to stay on MB's team Flu. I'm sure mine will be the slowest (as always). MB will more than likely come in first again.

I've been on a 3 hour team, but that was all lvl 50s, and most of us already having done it at some point before. I've done them all several times on several characters. As MrE and Luna can attest to, I certainly know my way around the shard. I use the geysers and usually get there first, and even when I don't, I'm right behind. (The only reason I refused TP form them was when I was close to the destination and using the travel opportunity to continue uncovering my map).
On Phanta, I don't have SJ (to give air control), so I'll have to adjust the way I travel a little, and get a flight pack (just in case). I might practice a bit and uncover some areas ahead of time as well. It's been a while since I've been there.
Anyway, I expect it to take a little longer with a possibly lowbie team, so hopefully we'll be able to SK up to 50 and get through it as quickly as possible. I'd like to be done by 2am.
2am PST or CST?

More realistically, we're probably looking at just over 5 hours though. I'll try to burn that down as much as I can.
Please sign me up for the one night team, though if needed I can be moved.
Not sure who I shall bring, I guess I'll go with Archantos (fire/kin) unless the team wants two ill/rads on it!
Currently Playing:
A bunch of toons! (Freedom, Virtue, and a few on Infinity)
If I can get fire con to 50 i'll run him since he has fly and hasnt done this yet, if I can't Alt will run this for the third time

Isn't Fire Con a 48? This TF caps out at 44, so you'll be fine with him

Hmm now I am confused 
You're options are:
a one night Team starting Sunday Night at 10pm Eastern and running until the silly thing is done (around 4-6 hours).
a two night Team where we split this massive TF up over two nights. It starts Sunday Night at 10pm Eastern as well, running until midnight or 1am that night and then continuing Monday night starting at 10pm Eastern and running until we are done.
Finally you have the option of being on either. We'll put you on whatever team needs a person.
So which would you like?

Ok, we'll see what shakes out on this TF as far as sign ups, show ups, and etc goes.
It's one of the most uneventful TF's out there. No great strategy is involved. Just hunt for stuff when it tells you to, fight the bosses when it tells you to, click on glowies when it tells you to.
Biggest thing to know is to make sure you keep 4 people on your team until the end. Otherwise you cannot complete it.
Some of the missions are somewhat stealthable in that you can skip mobs that are not around the glowies you have to click. But other than that, lots of travel back and forth between missions, and lots of missions with the same critters in them.
But lots and lots of merits. yay!

Ok, got it! I'll put you in the "Either list" and we'll figure it out the night of the TF depending on who shows up on Sunday!

Task Force Stats & Info:
<ul type="square">[*]This begins the dreaded Shadow Shard TF's. This TF is in my opinion the most mind numbing of them all. Please be prepared for it to take between 4-8 hours to complete. [*]We will have at least one all night team, and one two-night team running. Other than that, I'm not sure, it will depend on the sign ups. [*]This task force requires at 8 to start and at least 4 to finish. We will be running 2-3 teams depending on how many people show up. Do not sign up unless you can commit to the whole thing![*]We will wait to form teams until close to 10pm Eastern. This will allow us to get a better idea of what builds we have present. Anyone not at the contact, or that has not sent me a tell letting me know they are on their way will not be included.[*]We have use of the chat channel Freedom TF Chat for these TF's.
