To early for me unfortunately. The under map bug was hilarious though.

I'll drop in. Which do you guys need data on more, midlevel hero or midlevel villain?

I'll also be helpful given I never did the first test or read much about it; if someone coming in fresh can't figure it out, hey, even in failure there is useful data!

Ghost Falcon may tell you differently, but based on my last experience trying to get the event to spawn in the sparsely populated redside, I would definitely say please test redside.

Although the hilarious "kick" bug apparently was on blueside, so maybe that's what they specifically want tested.

I should be able to bring my squid again, at least for the beginning of it.

That being said, I'm dying to know if a low level brute has any prayer of doing this and not hitting the debt cap.

Villain. The first test was okay but we were struggling to get members on the second and third runs. Plus, we only had three runs while blueside managed to get several more due to their numbers.

I jumped on a red team very late in the last test (darn second job.) We got to the Lord but we couldn't do much with him.

I do find players to be less nice when playing redside. Kinda shaped by the immersion. Still, not one would invite? What blorks!

You should have offered to pay to door-sit in Lord Winter's realm

Some feedback:

I like the new thing of being kicked to Atlas when you exit Lord Winter's realm, regardless of which zone you were in when you entered it - everyone ends up in a nice safe zone, and very close to a WW for any cane selling - or the Atlas globe for cane trading.

I like the mechanics of the fight Lord Winter - I think he'll be pretty hard for a single team to take down, but then so is the Hamidon and the Rikti Master At Arms, along with Lusca

The number of snowmen needing to be defeated to spwan the WL is maybe a little too high - but if there's more than one team hunting presents, it should go quite fast.

Is it possible to twitter announcement like this? I hadn't been to the boards in a couple of days and I missed this. I would have been available to test if I had known.
