Welcome the Newbs event?

Hey All

Just wanted to throw something out to the Triumphant Veterans out there....

Would any of you out there be interested in trying to hold a welcome to the game event for newbs? There has been a lot of new people that have joined the game and it would be nice for some of us "old timers" to show them the ropes so to speak. (Karl, this does not mean tieing them up pantless in the middle of Monster Island....well maybe just the n00bs) GHOST Squad just recently added a few new players to our roster and this set me to thinking about a welcoming event.

Let me know what y'all think.

If I am available I can show them how to make a weak build then how to get to all the hospitals in each zone! Be glad to show up if I can.

My friend just picked up the game recently...

This morning I told him he should leave Atlas, as he's lvl 32. It's time to explore the world and find out who you are as a person.

He was suprised when I told him other zones had AE buildings and trainers... >.<

Sure, I'd love to be a part of it.

PvP from now on will be on our priority list. If something isn't working out, we'll be in there tweaking it and making it work, for the entire future of the product, not just Issue 13.

I ran the idea by Monkey last night and he said he would like to help, and promises not to poop on any of the nooblets. Keep in mind Monkey always promises not to poop on anything, but he usually does anyway. I don't know who has been feeding him burritos and prunes, but when I catch you there will be trouble.

What are you going to have the meeting to hash this out? I would like to help out. And I promise not to feed the Monkey.

Some suggestions of events:

-Superbase tours of Triumph
-Zone 'tours' of cool things (like the spiffy underground tunnel in Talos, some of the cool statuary, etc.)
-The 'Propel Scavenger Hunt' - go find the location of the cool distinctive things that propel throws - the globe, some of the statues, etc.
-Skeet shooting competition in the Hollows... get a lvl 50 with power thrust slotted for KB, and a teleporter. Get the newbs (requires ranged damage) up top in pairs, call "pull" and knock the hapless victim/hellion off the roof - the newbie who actually kills the hellion (or does the most damage before he lands) wins the round. Rinse, repeat.
-hold a 'repel ball' match (in the arena with the newbies observing - although participation is encouraged). Needs: an open indoor map; 1 mastermind (preferably dark) to summon the 'ball' (ie zombie) and 2 teams - must be kins, grav or FF with the repel fields (hurricane has lost too much of it's repel goodness). The two teams using ONLY the repel fields try to maneuver the zombie through defined goals on either end. Chances are great that players will also go flying - silly but mucho fun (and a good use of secondary builds).

I'm guessing this is blueside only?

I would offer to help out, but I'm only redside on Triumph.

I have a repel ball court on Test. Guess that doesn't help much. Especially since raids don't work
