And I'm currently working on September's. lol

OMG, September already..

Again, I have to say thank you all so much!!!

I've had a ton of help each week with this project, and I really appreciate how patient everyone has been while I figure it all out. I also appreciate MB, E, Xort, Alter, Jim, and Nothing2See for stepping up and leading teams when we needed the help.

I started this because of the fun I had on Mr. E-Man's, and Roxona's teams last year. My super group has pretty much stopped playing, and I wanted a way to have something to look forward to each week in game.

You all have not let me down, and I have made several new friends, and grown even closer to some I already had. I know that I am not the only person that has gained friendship through this series of events, and I am proud of that the most.

Lots of Love to you all,

Luna

From the looks of things we may be gaining a lot of new players in the next few weeks. Anytime you need Luna i will lead team number three or four or five or you get the picture. Sorry for my worse than normal spelling and grammar, i'm sure someone will fix it, but i have been up for close to 24 hours now with a sick wife and kid. I'm hoping I can make it later tonight but i think i may fall asleep on my keyboard.

lol, Go to BED!

Yay for sleep.

Ok, Boring day at work, So I finally figured out what order we are running the next round of TF's in.

You can find it here:

I moved the Cavern Trial forward, worked in the new TF, moved Statesman to the end and moved the third respec earlier into the list. Like last time, we have a few weeks where there are back to back TF's on that Monday night for the shorter TF's. Some of the other shorter TF's don't have anything else scheduled for those nights, but we might get together last minute TF's as we see fit.

Once we start, I'll keep the list updated with my team's completed times.

Luna

Edit: We'll be finishing round two the Monday before Christmas. I'll probably take the following week off because of people gone for the holidays, and restart Round 3 (yeesh) the first Monday in January 2010.

Sounds great, Luna!

Can we also have a special night focusing on the Portal Jockey and Freedom Phalanx reserve accloades? I think the Atlas Medallion is too easy but maybe we can add it as an item to work on if your team finishes early ...

Flu

PS. Thanks for being so organized. I can say that the Horde activites make this game have real staying power for me. You guys make me want to keep working on my toons so they can perform well when they show up for our events.

If I do a Portal Jockey run again, I think I'll split it up over two nights. The one night marathon run we did last time was just too much It's also a lot of work to get it set up "Just So" to have the exact missions to make it a speed run. So instead we'll do what I did last time, and run the two arcs that are needed for the badges. That way you can also get merits for running the arcs through Ouroborus.

As for the Freedom Phalanx Accolade, yeah I just took a peak at it, it's not a problem. Probably wait until about half way thru the run so that anyone interested can get into some of the level restricted zones for the exploration badges and plaques. The Freakshow Tanks and Fake Nemesis are also easier if you hunt in Crey's Folley and FBZ.

Luna

Great!

I have another 20 something rank on Freedom (Foxguard). I can tank for a team if needed.

Not 100% sold on what toon I'll be on, because every two days or so I want to play something else but rest assured I want in on this. @Rakin is the global, I may play my blaster simply to add to his merit total or I may be on a Plant/Rad, or something completely different by the 20th but whatever it is it'll be 12ish. Looking forward to this

Thanks for inviting me last night guys, I"M REALLY SORRY I had to cut out. I wanted to say something, but we were kind of in a bad situation when the alarm came in, and I realized I had forgotten to say anything to you guys about being at work. I set on auto follow with auto taunt. I hoped it was enough to keep you guys alive during that group that wstarted going so poorly there for a moment. I really didn't expect that alarm, and should never have gotten it, it wasn't even a Fire Department call, it was a Water Department call, but because they called, we go, it's just what we do. Anyway, sorry again, I guess I won't be Task Forcing from Work anymore unless it's with a Blaster or a Scrapper, due to level of importance.

Don't worry about it man. I'm a State Trooper by day so I know how it goes. RL comes 1st! We all had fun.

No worries Capt. We figured that's what happened when we saw you on follow and then didn't exit the mission. Glad it was just water and no one (hopefully) was hurt.

I moved the Cavern Trial forward....

[/ QUOTE ] The only problem I'm having with that is... That Trial can literally take less than 10 minutes. Even if the team doesn't stealth through, or has some other strange problems... it's timed at a maximum of 90 minutes. I would have paired it with something else.. but there isn't really any other quick TFs to pair it with in that lvl range.

I suppose we'll have to do a non-sanctioned ITF, LGTF or STF to fill in the time.

Yeah as I mentioned further down in my post, some of the shorter TF's will have to be followed by whatever you all want to run afterwards.

Your team had such a time on the Eden trial last time, that I figured we would break it out to it's own night instead of pairing it with the Cavern Trial.

Luna

Hey Capt. anytime you want to play from work and I'm leading the team, just exit the mission if you can and I 'll figure you will come back in at some point. You do a great service to the people in your city and anytime you need to step away is OK with me. I tried booting you from mission and not the team but it wouldn't let me. We all enjoy you coming along so don't feel bad about leaving.

<QR>

Also, if you have to go afk unexpectadly, you can also say afk and exit to desktop. You should still be on the team when you log back in. Plus if you exit to desktop, it's a lot quicker than trying to log off.

oh yeah forgot about that.

Don't worry about it Cap, RL > silly game any day of the week.

Because I have nowhere else to vent that would understand....

/vent
If my husband doesn't settle on a toon for the next TF run soon, I might harm him. Or ban him from Horde Events .

He's now on his 5th idea for the task forces... this one being the exact same idea that he deleted WEEKS AGO.

It wouldn't bother me if he had these ideas and played and leveled up his toons on his own. But no, he hardly ever plays, and when he does, he insists one of my toons drag his lowbie around to level him up to 10-12.

/endrant

Luna

lol

...you just made me happy my wife does not play...

So Luna since I'm on my third or fourth toon to use are you gonna harm me as well?

Glad to help ya there

What's sad is *he* got me into this game. But I long ago surpassed him in knowledge of it, and amount of time spent playing it.

You should hear us on Monday nights. Our team will say something like "keep ID or SB up" or "Buff up" and he's like "What's that?". There's a reason I usually end Monday nights with a headache!

<sigh>

Only if you make me level them up for you and then delete them (so that you can recreate them again later)!
