I'll bring Boltmeister in with my puny hold and some decent damage output, just as long as some people are kept out of the Hive during the entire thing. There gotta be a way to have some GMs (clive, max et all) online during the start to make sure griefers/idiots don't mess up the effort of 100s of Heroes (like insta-kicking on request and putting a 5 hr ban on their accounts?)

Tried 2 raids - both failed due to morons aggroing and not following simple instructions. Just a wee warning to the griefers - when I get hold of your IP-adress I am going to make it disappear into a black hole. Here's 20 yrs of phreaking/hacking saluting all morons, saying "bring it on, and I'll make you pay dearly"

edit: and oh, why not try the "no-hold-strategy"? A triangle setup with some TPs on constant active duty will bypass the hold-spam-lag-fest. Don't have the link to this stragey here, but look on the US boards and you'll find it. Theoretically it would mean that 3 (maybe 4) groups of heroes can whop Hami good. Expect lotsa deaths, but no insta-wipe if we loose Hami with the hold-strategy at 50% and 20% Hami-health.

The one where we all discussed movies and favourite potato snacks during the holding phase was great fun!

The one where a certain person felt they had to goad people into abusing them was far less fun.

So can we ALL please be nice, use our ignore feature wisely, and have fun, it's xmas afterall!!!

Perhaps we could refrain from telling people who dont read the forums about it to minimise the idiot factor. i mean on the day of the raid just not put out calls over arena and broadcast, just keep it within SG and coalition chat.

I will have my Elf's outfit dry cleaned and pressed for the occasion oh and this time will have had time to respec my holds just for Hami.


 

Posted

Cool, what are the rules on holds. I believe some people thought they were using holds when they weren't? Can someone elaborate?

I love the implication that the idiots aren't on the forum


"Well, they found my diary today.
They were appropriately appalled
at the discovery of the eight victims
They're now putting it all together.
Women wrapped in silk
with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
spider, brilliant!"

hey i said minimise, not eliminate :P


btw couldn't we start earlier, if we start at 8 we might still be going at midnight, cant we have a 7pm start?


 

Posted

Guess we could. Lets vote!

6pm Meetup for a 7pm start
