I have a somewhat different plan in my head that I will talk to London about later as I have been out all dat today, I have just nit had a chance to talk as yet, I feel the success or fail depends on the leaders of the teams being able to converse with one another to enguage the teams when we are ready so in my mind teamsspeak or vintrio (lets gho with teamspeak) wiill be the major factor in our address to the rest ot the teams.
It will only mean that teamspeack will be used as a co-ordinating tool for the leaders the rest will be done through a dedicated channel eveyone else can read.
This is just my opinion at the moment from what I have read on the USA test server's best results.
Assuming there is still room I will be up for it with Energen 
Count me in m8. I'll be there as Promethean.

You can't party without the party possie, we will be there full loaded
Ill be there, just fount this thread with 30mis to spare
Wel that did not work out too well, people where unfortunately a bit unprepared for what we where up against.
We will do it again as the turnout was really great and thanks all for comming, its not going to be easy and next time it will be better organised and teams set up befor we even log in which will cut out about 2hrs of peoples time lol.
The EoE's where not wasted on mass so thats a good thing hopefully everyone has lots left.
Until next time.
Im starvin im gonna eat
Okay, a review from an Assault Team Lead...
Prep: EoE Farming
This went extremely well and we tore through both Monster Island and the DE in the Abyss as well without a hitch. My team (formed in the Abyss) didn't take a single casualty, and stuck together well despite my on the fly team lead style developing 
Hami: First Wave
Buffing phase done (somewhat elongated past prime), the Assault Team popped an EoE on the count of zero and charged in for the first Mending Mito. We scratched it maybe once... that's it. The rest of the time we took so much secondary effect (stun, fear, etc.) that we couldn't bring our guns to bear.
As a MM, all my pets were trashed by AoE's before they could even get a shot in. Obviously they have no role in this situation and should be better left unsummoned.
I think this may be down to the Hami/Yellow Tanks not having enough support and/or not having the tactics down pat - could their team leads to report in to see how it went for them.
Hami: On the Run!
A lot of people didn't get that the Mitos and Hami can drop anyone in an open area in the basin - the calls for getting behind scenery largely went unheard and we probably had more deaths than needed cos of it (not a problem this time since it was a wash out )
Hami: Thoughts for Improvement
A mix of BF's and EoE would probably allow the Assault Team to stay in the zone longer - I was stunned well before I took any damage.
My team was first rate! I reckon with a bit more refinement we can get this thing done.
Better luck next time all!
Only wanted to say I had great fun even though we had to leave with Hami still around. Looking forward to next attempt. Also extra thanks for those organizing and to my team (lead by Zaprobo). Great time!!
"Style before purpose"
Just a thank you to all who attended and a plea to please read the guide next time and also note Master Zap's post a few back , again though thank you all
It was a good effort, ill see you all at the nxt run. Time to lvl something that buffs mez protection i think
Hi all,
To give my 2 cents worth.
BB and I somewhat took turns running a last fill-in team.
Some minor problems in the crazyness where it split a couple times, he took some where yellow names started poping up and I the other for the same reason when we saw our groups of teams being gang [censored] and yellow names poping up going the other way.
All in all tho the mi bit went well.
The Abyss tho....ouch.
The first shot I got in 1 hit before stuned, then terror, then death.
The second shot, not a hit off before stun then death.
I saw no damage on the ones we targeted.
Not a good sign lol.
I am sorry I pushed London to get a hami raid going, I just wanted to be on the first raid....the first Successful raid I should say, maybe next time lol.
Thx to London and crew 4 giving it a go and thx 2 all who showed up.
Brutes: Doc O'Bay (yup, was me lvl2-48) Doc O'Bay Jr., Sihing, Belphanior, Mr. Lich & Joker's Wylde MMs, Rad'Man Corr, Lockup Dom, Suicide King Stalker, Lord Florentine DB/WP Brute, Tygercide Scrapper......Scrapper?? what the heck is he doing here???

At least we got the targeted Mending Mitochondria down to about 50% health before we got slaughtered.
And my poor Dominator got perma-Stunned and -Feared through no less than three Emerges, so those mez-effects were pretty goshdang powerful.

But still you held firm....i saw you....even if we were all dead.....GOOD MAN!!
Yes good turn out and a notes to work on, teams being one, i was on a team with 7 brutes and 1 mm taking on the yellows with no heal/buff support.
As has been said next time team make up should be looked at as i belive we had to many buffers/healers on on the tank team although they did there job the teams taking down the mitos had no support.
Still its all a learning curve, TS would help so next time i think we should all use it.
Thanks again to all that came along to support us.
Unfortunately it sounded as if the TS server was full, so I didn't bother trying to log in, though I definately would have otherwise, probably like 80% of all those not on TS.

"You should come inside the box... Then you'll know what I mean."
Team speak was not being used in that sense as people where not talking) next time the leaders only will log into teamspeak and direct from there.
Lots more to learn from this but the key is communication. This is very new to Villains and we will have to be prepared to read up a little.
I'm there, Wintergreen (Ice/Thorn Dom) or theTorment (in the sig). I'll probably bring WG cause everyone and their dog has a Brute, so it seems, and holds will be nice for those mitos with less mez protection (is it the green ones? I think it's the green ones . . .)
edantic word change.
