I imagine I'll run it in a weeks/2 weeks depending on how much interest there is, but I can't be anymore specific just yet.
What time/day is good for people? I'm free a lot atm, so any is fine for me.
This actually sounds like fun. Not sure I'll be able to join, but good luck with it!

Can't actually observe without making a new character, the Outbreak accessed via Ouroboros is a mission rather than the actual zone.
And in regards to the actual contest, should specify whether levelling to 2 is allowed or would bring disqualification. By completing Coyote's mission but not returning to him, you can fight the Contaminated as -1s rather than even-cons, which is the faster way of getting Isolator.

I would say all players have to start fresh from the creator, and then can choose to do the missions to level up to 2 or just kill straight off. Would be a challenge to decide whether to take the enh's, insps and level for an advantage over the extra time it takes.

Well, the characters have to be fresh for the contest, (we'll be checking ) and while I like the idea of letting people do the missions during the race for the level boost, there's no way we can check on temp power use while they're in the mission, so I guess that'd be a no. Fun idea though.
count me in, long as im available
DETERMINED to get me a title!!!!!
*grumbles* 1 minute late when av was handing them out in shadow shard, 1 bloomin minute *grumbles*
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!
I just wanted to make it clear that I'll need to get your title of choice approved before I can give it to you ingame. Those yellow titles are quite noticeable above your character's head!

Hi all!
With all the new folks joining us lately I thought it might be nice to have a fun little competition for the newbie in all of us. In that spirit, I bring you: The Great Isolator Race!
In a nutshell, it's a race to see which brand new toon can get the Isolator badge first in the tutorial map "Outbreak". This is heroing at it's most basic - no enhancements, no travel powers, no vet powers - just you, your starting powers, and hordes of angry maniacs.
The rules are simple - you can pick any hero AT/Powerset you like with the exception of Peacebringer or Warshade and you're only allowed to use your two starting powers, brawl, sprint, and your origin temp - which means no Sands of Mu or Blackwand people! Toons are to be created directly before the competition starts to avoid cheating, and no teaming is allowed. Breaking the rules is punishable by disintegration. Or disqualification. I get the two confused. A squadron of peacebringers will be circling the hot zone to judge the event.
Players will gather at the starting contact, and when the judges give the signal they'll race into the hot zone and make with the punchies! When you get the badge, simple yell out "Bingo!" on broadcast and one of our judges will zoom down to check you. Yelling ahead of time is a no-no, if you yell and you don't have the badge, disintegration will soon follow.
The winner will be crowned "King/Queen of the Newbies" and will receive an exclusive costume code and a temporary title of their choice, generously provided by Avatea, second and third place will be known as "Duke/Duchess of Newbies" and will receive temporary titles of their own.
I hope you think this is a fun little event and will think about getting involved! I haven't settled on a date yet, I'll wait and see how much interest there is.
Oh, and maybe we'll have a good old fashioned costume contest afterwards.
I'll be starting signups as soon as there's enough interest, so if you'd like to take part, or help with the judging, let me know!
Thanks all,
Kid Snowflake.
