I was thinking of spearheading a run through the red side SF's. I know we are doing the blue side coming up on Mondays. I was wanting input on what night would work for everyone & a list of interested individuals. I will be leading a team with (Gravel) my Stone Brute. Thanks in advance for the input.
[/ QUOTE ] The same group of people who organize the Monday night Hero runs you are referring to.. also have a Wednesday night Villain run. We just had the Villain 3rd respec this week.
There are not as many Villain SFs available, so we don't really do them in order, but we've pretty much gone through them a few times in the same amount of time it took us to finish the Hero set. lol
You already know that Luna posts the Monday night (10:00p ET) Hero runs.
MrEMan posts the Wednesday night (10:30p ET) Villain runs. Keep an eye out for them.
Ok. I saw his post, but I thought it was just for the LRSF. My bad.

[/ QUOTE ] Yes, the MoLRSF thread is just for MoLRSF runs. He also has a MoSTF thread.
Those are separate events in addition to our standing Monday and Wednesday night appointments... which each get a separate thread of their own every week.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to discourage you from forming your own group. Our 10pm ET timeslot was picked after careful consideration of the availability of interested parties, and it isn't likely to change. If something earlier in the day is more convenient for you, I'm sure you can find people to join you. We aren't the only ones out there.
Many members of the "Freedom Horde" are also on earlier as well, and are always looking for extra things to do. On my day off.. I certainly am. lol

Yeah, when I originally started the Hero side TF's, I was hoping to do them earlier in the evening East Coast Time, but pretty much everyone else preferred the after 10pm time.
So if you want to get some events going, post up here on the threads, I'll put the info in the chat channel, and I'm sure you'll get some kind of response.
As far as Villain side goes, very fun, but boy, not enough SF's to fill out the level ranges. It's been a struggle in some spots to get people who are actually leveling up toons over the humps that have no TF's in them.

So, I wanted to chime in here on a couple of points:
1) Try not to discourage people from running events. If Whitefox wants to try his hand at organizing/running events, he should be given the opportunity. What would have happened if I discouraged Luna when she asked me about leading her own events?
2) Yes, it is correct that currently on Wednesday nights I am/have been running the Villain side SFs in addition to other filler material (due to the lack of Villain SFs). I anticipate completing the run over the next 4-5 weeks: Barracuda SF, GW Arcs, Mako Arcs, Mender Silos SF & LRSF (non-master run) - perhaps not in that order.
3) While I do have a couple lowbie villains that I would love to level through SFs like I did with Mr E-Lectric, I am not sure I want to be locked into strictly villain side. As Luna mentioned, it was frustrating at times with the lack of SFs & the fact that pretty much all of the SFs are short, leveling up did not take place as timely as running hero side. I am considering switching Wednesdays back to random TFs/SFs/Events - sort of counter programming to the Monday night runs.
As far as the general timing goes - I am in the after 10pm eastern crowd - trying to get on earlier more than once a week (for my static team night) usually involves fighting off too much wife aggro to make it worthwhile...
In any event, I do hope you do decide to start up running some events Whitefox.

Well, thanks everyone for all the info. I deleted the post originally because I didn't want to post about something that was already being conducted. I may try to start running random SF & TF's on different nights or maybe piggy back some shorter ones onto the regularly scheduled ones. The reason being, I have several alts including several 50s who still need a lot of badges. That, and the friendly group teaming keeps me interested in the game. I'll try to come up with something to run this week or next weekend & get it posted in time for people interested to sign up. Thanks all for the comments & support. Don't worry about offending or discourging me, in my line of work you grow pretty thick skin.
Heyas, I'll be around for whatever folks are doing, if you want a spare gun.
I have two fifties who need badges, a spade of twenties who need something to do, and... erm. Twentyish alts I need to get off the ground.

If you get the urge to start something in game just let me know. Last night I was getting base beacons because I couldn't think of what I wanted to do.
Yes, I highly encourage anyone that wants to run events, to do so 
There is a great core of players on Freedom who love to team, but usually they don't like to organize things.
As I mentioned earlier, I haunt the forums quiet a bit, so if you get an event setup that you want to do, I'll post the info in the Freedom TF Chat channel MOTD.
Some advice for anyone wanting to run events:
Give at least 1-2 days notice. Some people don't always check the forums every day.
Post the start times in all four time zones lol. Some people are really bad at converting time over, and some of my early runs had several people who missed the event because they had the wrong time.
Post a sign up list. It doesn't have to be fancy, just 1-8 works great! It's my opinion/experience that people whose name appears on a list are more likely to show up then people who say yeah I'll do it on the forum, but you never hear back from them again. You have to kind of "remind" people with the list that this event is really going to happen, and that you are looking forward to seeing you there. Even with that however, expect at least someone to not show up. As you team with more people here on Freedom, you'll get a feel for who will be there early, who will be there on time, who constantly runs late but still shows up, and those that constantly back out of events.
Good luck

Why do you think I started the list of "usual suspects" to sign up automatically each week? Some of them were not getting on the teams because they forgot to check the forums

I suppose since it is another monitor. So what are you doing in game right now? The same as me, just sitting around.

Well I think I'm gonna come sit by you.
I think I've finally decided on one to run! I'm going to try to put together a Ice Mistral SF for Thursday night (July 16th) at 9pm Central Time/10pm Eastern. The level ranges are 35-40 with Enchantment of Serafina Temp Power and Crystal Keeper Badge. Also needed for Megalomanic Accolade. I picked this one because my SS/WP Brute I've been working on is in this range. I will tank for one team. As usual, depending on how many people sign up will determine how many teams we will form. I figured next Thursday would give us plenty of time for everyone to sign up.
Once and if we get some show of hands, I'll post the TF full info and roster in a more formal pattern. (i.e. copy and past Mr. E's) lol!
Pretty much can count me in, I think. Childe on redside, dark/dark corrupter (I'll exemplar to someone).
Redside... my next toon down is Myrdinn Dark, a en/grav dom... but he's only a 21. Finally got him a cool outfit though; even though it looks a lot like my Kheld's toon's armor, and Myrdinn's armored toon.

lol, Earlier today I had actually mentioned over in Mr. E's MoLRSF thread that I was thinking of running a Dr. Kahn for that night at that time. If you want to run that SF though, that's cool, I'll push Dr. Kahn back to the following Thursday.

Also Myrdinn, for most TF's you won't have to worry about Exemplaring to someone. The TF's/SF's will put you at the max level for that TF, and other than a few rare ones, the enemies always scale to a set level per TF. The exceptions are ITF, Moonfire, Hess, and Respec trials. Those will scale to the level of the highest team member, or the max for that TF, whichever is greater.
