Fortnightly sounds cool. And yeah, I think thats a word.
"The Hamidon is a what what of what?" - Brian the mission guy.
How about weekly? I'll lead one raid with my crew one fortnight, and you guys do one the next?
Or, if we want to be stupid, twice in one day? Hami takes 3 hours to respawn, so it would be possible on the weekend.....
just wanted to post, great leadership mag would've failed if it wasnt for ur shouting etc etc 
and hammer, nice pics
(even though im not actually facing hami as it's dieing O.o man i'm a n00b)

Weekly could well be workable with alternating crews, I will have a proper chat with others but in principle I am happy to give a go at this. (god help me 
)
As for twice in a day, whilst not as a regular idea I think it could be cool to see if we could do it.
Cheers,

Alternating weeks sounds possible as long as we got enough of the necessary ATs, im thinking mainly PA drop team here.
I'm up for weekly raids at the moment, although i think the long term interest may wane and then like hammer says, we could struggle to get the PA team or controllers required for the holding phase.
I do think it is worth a try though, and maybe stagger the start times so one starts at 6pm GMT and one at 8pm GMT.
I think as long as there are people who can do the key roles as Hami tank, Hami tank heal, targeter and general co-ordinator it would be possible.
I think if we switch to 6pm, it will have to be a Sunday as people will be at work more in the week and hence the current start time of 8pm.
So we could say 6pm Sunday and then a weekday at 8pm. Is Monday 8pm too soon after a Sunday 6pm raid for people?

Just like to say a big TY to everyone running it, and know it aint easy, congratz on a successful raid and ty one and all
YAY!!! Archy's back 
About time!!! Hehe
I'm up for a weekly raid.
Dropping PA on Hami's head is really the only time I brush the dust off of Ruby, so it'll be a nice excuse to use her more.

Ruby Dragon - ill/emp Troller

Prized Dragon - WS
Mari Darksoul - nrg/ice Blas
Nawty - fire/kin Troller
Macula - ice/fire Tank
As often as possible is good
The last raid went well, would it be of any benefit to have two Mito clearing teams to help speed that process up?

We do sometimes end up with more than one being targeted more due to lag/confusion/numbers and it has always worked out ok if both groups have sufficient numbers.
As regards as a targeter go, I was thinking of whether to make it easier the targeter wore say an all white costume with a white cape so they could be spotted easier.
This would be made even easier if everyone else had a black costume (and no cape) for the Hami raid. The targeter would then really stand out.
Personally, although this may sound like a good idea, I'm not sure the idea of an all black group of heros is a good idea, a bit sombre in my view, plus it may lead to people thinking that it is ok to wear capes in a raid.
Just float the idea though, in case people think there is merit in it.

well i was fortunate to be able to do everything, pa dropping, tank healing, killing mitos, rezzing blasters... etc etc :P It was fun and i want more... more i say!
Well, having the targeter wear white would work well IMO without a cape. I think it would definitely help for when it gets busy and you can't target him.
"The Hamidon is a what what of what?" - Brian the mission guy.
or just add the targetter to your friendslist and target through that?
or even the new targetcommand that got introduced with I7:
/bind somekey "target_name nameoftargetter" i believe it is?
or as a macro:
/macro Target "target_name nameoftargetter"

Aye, and you did good job! Thanks for coming to aid the tank team 
EDIT: Arch, sometimes the friendslist will say "out of range or offline" if the targeter is far enough, and thats closer than you think for people with lag. Less than half Hami-width Id say from my past experience. I had honsou (when he was targeter) vanish lots of times in the earlier raids. A big flying tank wearing white wouldnt actually be a bad idea

weekly raids.... I would Definatley be up for that although weekend days would be possibly out for me due to having my daughters all weekends, friday night till after sunday tea... would be a shame if I had to miss them 
(the raids that is ) however evenings... I'm around any evening after 8pm.. so I'd happily join in the jelly munching

could i suggest 2 teams, reason being is some of us dont have fly so the targeter goes up after high ones, out of range lol.2 teams, targerter stays in range mainly and clearing goes faster. and Weekly raids!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEH!!!!!!!!!

I have to agree with Sayia: When's the next one?

I talked last night with War man and we were thinking about making it a fortnightly event (is that correct word?), ie. 2 weeks interval. Iirc thats how it was before ED and other changes hit us. Getting all the necessary experienced people together may be easier if raids arent organised too often.
ps. Thanks Gossamer storm, I forgot you as well. :S
