Ozmosis, Knowmad, my wife and I were talking about this PvP badge we still need the other night, and thought there was no better way to get this done than to propose the idea on the Protector forum.

So who still needs the Tournament Victor badge and what are your availabilities in the next few days?

This needs at least 8 players to start.

If I can set aside 3 spots for the aforementioned PvP badge buddies here, we can still set up as many 8 (or more) person teams we need to accomodate everyone in the next few days.

I'm available Thursday and Friday evening, at any time past 7PM eastern. Saturday should be fairly open as well, at any time.



Badge Tip of the day: For those still looking for Pentad Victor: just find a buddy with the same archetype as your badge hunter, create a timed Pentad match and start it with only you 2 participating. Alternately exit the match for the other to receive badge. That is correct: You don't need a member of each AT on said teams for this to work.

I'm game and so is Syanth and his 3 accounts. I'll be in Pocket D tomorrow at 6 PM PST as will Kult (maybe).

BTW: I teamed with Kult for her pentad badge tonight, but villain pentad/septads do not award the badge (as verified by my warshade tonight). According to the forums it's a known bug.

I can do this as I need the badge on my hero and villain badgers. I can also log in the second account if need be to help with this. I'm available tomorrow and Friday to do this - on vacation this week so my hours are much more flexible than normal.

Darnit... that means she overtook me as Protector's top badge hunter then.

If we can confirm Oz for tomorrow night, that could be the first min. 8 players.

Does tomorrow night mean Thursday night? Or Friday? Your post was made at 22minutes past midnight, so I'm confused.

As for availability, I dont know yet, I'm currently at work, and have been here since 7pm, and will most likely still be here at 8am... and if I still need to do my shift from 8am to 5pm is still to be determined... (wich means I would be here for 22 hours straight, ugh!)

So ya, overtime due to rush jobs suck.

Sorry Vyx! I hadn't seen your reply before I posted mine.

Since you're available and Oz hasn't confirmed, perhaps we can work something out - or ask Syanth to move one of his alts to the next team so everyone has a shot with their mains.

OK... you people need to stop doing this to me tonight.

That would be Thursday night Oz.

As you see, there's already another team shaping up and that could still be run "tonight", being Thursday evening, or even Friday evening.

I can act as padder wherever needed as well.

I'd like to go with the premise of real badger toons getting preference before filler toons to fill up a team.

Syanth only wants the badge on 1 toon and the other two are fillers if we need extra. Syanth may or may not be able to be there at 6 PM PST tomorrow (thursday), but if not he'll be around fri/sat.

I'll be there tomorrow 6PM pst and maybe Fri same time or earlier. Meet in Pocket D?

Perfect.

Pocket D it is for tonight, Thursday, at 6 Pacific, 10 Eastern.

Syanth must be chomping at the bit to get back to dominating the badge hunting list.

If he can't make t tonight and Friday is more suitable, I'm sure we can drum up the minimum requirements to get him rolling. I may even have 2 accounts available to help (if wifey isn't using it).

That's another thing I like about badging: It's a bit like golf.

Sure, you compare your count with your buddies but in the end it's not a competition against other players. It's really more a competition against yourself and the environment you're placed in.

So yeah, if we can keep helping each other out like this to increase each other's badge counts, I'm all for it.

I am interested in this as well. But I don't want to just cheat to get the badge on a Match walkover. I'd really like to earn the badge. You know me, I actually explore new zones to find Exploration badges. So count me in at 6 PM Pacific Thursday.

This is one of those badges Sam that, even if you win every match you're in, might not reach the top of the tournament elimination.

There's something weird going on where winners are not automatically moved up in the ladder. There is apparently some sort of calculation and randomness going on in the background as well.

The trick is for all matches the badge hunter is not in to exit without fighting, including the badge hunter's matched opponent, leaving only him/her in a position where advancement is forced.

So this one would fall squarely into the "must be organized / farmed to obtain" category, much like the healing or damage taken badges.

I got just one character who needs said badge. I'm available at any and all times.

Huh, so this is why there's been a sudden jump in Arena announcements?

I'd love to do this tonight, but one of my sister's is in town.. dinner with her is a priority. Hopefully another time.

I'd like to get the Arena badges on Hestis (I don't have any, I've actually never even done an Arena match). I can't do Thursday night, but I might be available for Friday.

Ah hell. I'm a PVP hater but you said the B-word. I'll show up tonight.

But I warn you. If you want me to act all '1337 and kiddie during this time, you're going to be SORELY disappointed. I'll have a gun to my head the entire time, just in case I have a nervous breakdown and turn into a PVP-jerk. It'll be "*BLAM!* Hyper? You there man? What's this blood leaking out of my internet connection?"



Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

You know... stuff.

Here's a link to www.badge-hunter.com for more details about badges in general, and a hearty "welcome to CoH" handshake.

Or if it's just the PvP badges you,re referring to, then the Arena Badges are what we're talking about.

And all those do, including the accolade, is give you a +1 to badges.



So it's starting to look more and more like we'll need to run a second team tonight, and a thrid one tomorrow night as well. No other start time preferences have been proposed for Friday yet, unless I missed it.

Its looking like I can only do tonight for this, not tomorrow like I previously thought.

UPDATE:

It seems I made a mistake in converting 6PM Pacific to 10PM Eastern. I just now found out. It should have been 9PM Eastern, so in 10 minutes.

Also, some players have already started their own tourney, so I don't know if they'll be available for scheduled run.

If you see me, send me a tell and we'll see if we have the minimum required to run this tonight, or we we need to postpone.


I'm not thrilled about this outcome.

Sorry guys.
