Strike Force Sundays

Redside Champion needs a kick in the rear. The Saturday evening Hamidon raids are a good start. Let's add another step.

Introducing: Strike Force Sundays!

Every other Sunday evening, we'll run Strike Forces in sequential order. Should more than eight people show up that evening, then a second team would be formed.

June 14 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Virgil Tarikoss SF, levels 15 through 20 for experience

June 28 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Silver Mantis SF, levels 20 through 25 for experience

July 12 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Operative Renault SF, levels 25 through 30 for experience

July 26 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: First Respec, levels 24 through 33 for experience

August 9 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Ice Mistral SF, levels 35 through 40 for experience

August 23 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Second Respec, levels 34 through 43 for experience

September 6 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Barracuda SF, levels 45 through 50 for experience (I'm assuming Issue 15 will be live by then :P)

September 20 at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT: Third Respec, levels 44 through 50 for experience

Yes, the Lord Recluse SF was intentionally left off this list. :P

please remember that most Sunday there is a blue side Hami raid at that exact same time. I understand the desire to bring more people to the red side , but would it be possible to find a different time so as to not get in the way of another community event?

I agree with ElectroHawk ... I'd love to take part in some SF's but Sunday night's I reserve for the blue-side Hami raids.

Well, weekdays are usually bad for strike / task forces. Fridays are out for me. That leaves Saturday or Sunday. We already have redside Hamidon raids on Saturday evenings. I don't do Hamidon raids, but I know and acknowledge that many people do. So that leaves Sunday evenings.

I'd be more than happy to turn this idea over to someone else that could run it on Fridays, or something.

So redside should trump blueside? And your convenience is more important than the rest of the population of this server? Sometimes people amaze me with their sense of self-entitlement.

Uh, no. It was just the only day & time I could regularly run strike forces without alienating the redside Hamidon raiders. I already said that if someone could run this on Fridays or whenever instead, I'd be more than happy to turn the ball over to him / her.

no no he's saying he understand why we are asking him to find another time and let us know that it might be hard for him to do so.

I think it would be possible to do those SF a bit earlier on Sundays or even Saturday and I would probably attend a couple of them ( if time allows)

If you are able to schedule this a bit earlier, i'm sure you would have a good response. Also this is only 1 TF so 8 players only are needed, which i'm sure can be done almost at any time on Sundays


Edit: got beaten to it ...

Sure, backpedal now that I have outed your nefarious plan to monopolize the resources of this fine server!

PantherShade recognizes sarcasm, and thinks that the Kansas accent made it unclear.

Sure, like YOU have room to talk. You're from Boston. I grew up in Maine, and even WE thought you Massholes had a messed up accent! So there!

Also, gold star for detecting sarcasm.

Was THAT sarcasm?

The world may never know.

well i guess it's because of my french canadian roots that didn't detect the sarcasm

This would give me a reason to get on my Brute.. He needs all the SFs but Cap..

Ha! I was thinking of something just like this last night. I also thought about the Hamidon problem and the only solution I could come up with is that there are already plenty of people who do not go to the raids (myself included) so it shouldn't be that hard to find 3-7 of them with villains. So keep it on Sunday nights if that's what works for you, CL. All life as we know it should not grind to a halt for Hami raids.

And count me in for this every week.

Ooh, so close!
I'm not FROM Boston, I just live here now.
I was actually brought up in the Midwest.
Thus, I know that many Midwesterners are chosen for TV anchor due to their lack of accent.
My quip about your accent was sarcasm!

Okay, so the first Strike Force will be next Sunday, June 14, at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT.

This is not the Sarcasm Thread! And being Canadian i can agree with my French colleague your internet accents are atrocious (oops big word-dictionary time)

I am blueside based, so if there is a blue event i am in...but as for you redside...into the Zigg with you!

Actually i think you should run what is most convenient for yourself and let others try to get in. Your enjoyment of the game is as important as everyone else's, good luck with your event.

All sarcasm aside (except for that, and this), I presume that you'll be forming teams at the site of the contact.

I'll do my best to come join you for these, and I have several villain types to offer, depending on the needs of the team at the time.

Yes, I should have made that more clear in the original post, sorry. Yes, the meeting point for all strike forces will be at the site of the contact, except for the Silver Mantis SF. The Silver Mantis SF requires the use of a base mission computer, so we'll meet at the Cap au Diable base portal so we can access my villain group base.

Just a reminder that the first Strike Force Sunday is this coming Sunday.

Hi!

While I think this is a great idea, and I'd love to participate, I have a tabletop, pen and paper DnD game that runs on Sundays. I'll join in when and as I'm able ... in other words, when the tabletop doesn't run.

Geni

Another reminder that Strike Force Sundays starts this Sunday at 7:30 P.M. ET / 4:30 P.M. PT.

My tabletop schedule will be changing somewhere in the middle of July. Therefore, I should be able to join in the SFs for the second run in July.
