Forumite SG's first TF

To commemorate the beginning of the Forumite SG on Union, we're running the Positron TF at 8pm BST.

If you're going to take part (and anyone's welcome to join in, regardless of whether or not you're in the SG...just don't be surprised if you get a Super Group invite) please...please make sure you can stick around for the entirety of the TF. Whilst some exceptions will be made for technical issues (I know Duckdee's having router problems, and my modem thinks it's funny to cut out on me at random intervals) turning around during the second mission or so and saying "sorry guys going out haev fun lol" will be as appreciated as a kick in the happysacs.

Which you'll get.

We'll be meeting at Posi from around 7:45ish, looking for commencement at 8:00 - 8:05. If you're there at 8:10...sorry, but there'll be another TF next month.

Remember that whilst the minimum level for the TF is 10, anyone higher will be auto-exemped, so if you want to bring along your own 'signature' hero, to be more recognisable, feel free. Personally, I don't think there'd be anything cooler than looking around and seeing a team made of Forum All-Stars.

Everybody's welcome, so...let's do it.

There'd better be a spot for me. And can we reserve one for my Weasel?

I can stay online for the whole TF, but as everyone knows, am a bit under the weather - so might not be v. talkative. Either that, or will be very talkative and get everyone killed.

Will bring...will bring...well, I'll find someone to bring along.

Edit: Level 15's the highest? Hmm, Flittermaus is level 14...as soon as he levels, will he be auto-exemped? If so, I'll probably drag out Stasis, I don't think I have any level 10-15s .

I'll be there with Saryn Kast, lv15 Kat/Regen Scrapper.

You won't be exemplared until you're level 16 or higher.

A level 15 will still gain xp.

You need to watch the level spread on thisone lvl 15 with a bunch 12s means all the opposition will be set at 15 or higher, with numbers determined by toal size of TF group - things getting quite tricky if the group is bigger than 5

[/ QUOTE ]Positron is a TF with 'fixed levels', that means it will ALWAYS spawn foes around L15-16, doesn't matter what level team members are. Thus, it would be good to have at least half the team L15+, to be able to SK those L12 and below.

Is there anything MaX *doesn't* know?


 

Posted

Flittermaus it is then!

Weasel, once I let him know, is likely to bring his level 15 too.

Looks like I'll need an SK then.

PLease say Im not going to have the oonly defender? Let me warn you now I dont heal or rez I herd mobs instead

Defender's don't need to heal. We're all forumites who've been around for a bit. We like debuffers and the like much better than straight out healers.

My TA Defender has only just taken a Heal from the medicine power pool at level 24 - and I'm teaming with a fire blaster!

It would be warm and fluffy if Shen-Lung, my lvl 12 storm/dark defender, could tag along. How long do you anticipate the TF going on for, as previous experience indicates some kind of amphetamine/red bull combination may be needed .


@Moondog
Union:
CoH: Moondog (WS); V-Rock (Tnk, semi-retired); Pole-Star (Bla); Demon Dog (Scr).
CoV: Midnight Gunner (Corr); Operative John Doe (Ban); Day-Star (Dom); Commissar Jaeger (MM).

Just a quick addendum. My Internet connection, as it stands, is cutting out every few minutes....right now, it's the most stable it's been, and it cut out right after I wrote the word "cutting". Just in case it cuts out tonight, I'm nominating Duckdee as the Star Holder.

Whilst I'd love to be able to do the whole thing (as I haven't actually done a TF yet) I might vanish. If I do, then, obviously, I won't be able to rejoin, but I'll expect plenty of commentary on the Forumites channel for when I get back.

[/ QUOTE ]FG, have you ever done a TF? You stay in the team until you quit it, even if you log off or D/C.

Right, but my D/Cs can (and do) last up to half an hour.

Ok thought I would post a list of people who are coming so we know where we are up to (or at least I do)

1)FG
2)Myopic
3)Dr E
4)Stasis
5)MaX
6)Max
7)Weasel (apparently)
8)Moondog
9)Duckdee

So we already have more than enough for one team at the current moment.

Gah! Can't make tonight (or Wednesdays generally, as a rule).

Bagsy a space on next month's outing, on a different day of the week!

Just to continue gilding the lily, you can add me to the team, making it 10 heroes out of a possible eight.

I'll loiter at the required time and then go do something else if there's no room for me.

It'll probably be Ghostlight - lvl 12 elec/nrg Blaster.


 

Posted

Just a note, Stasis might not be coming, as she isn't very well, which means Weasel might not either.

Right, we kicked off the TF with some great missions, about five or six teamwipes, and we're...what? Two thirds of the way though. Had to call it a night, though, people had started falling asleep at their keyboards.

Next TF, I promise, WILL start earlier (by eight hours or so), and will be on a weekend, or somesuch.

We need to organise a new time to run through the rest of Posi, so if anyone wants to throw in some suggestions, we'll see what everyone can manage.
