You mean a surprise speed, right? Plowing is the normal way and speeding is the exception. (-:|

We gotta get the phrase "lft plow" commonplace in this community!
Well it kinda depends on the tf. LG, Katie, Numi, Mantis default speed. I joined a pug mantis recently that turned out to be plow and it was excrutiating.
I just think it'd be nice if announcements specified either way. On those rare occasions when I'm starting a tf I specify (I generally let one of my globals start tf's cause they seem to load in and out of mishes a few seconds faster than me).

Manti plow is not so bad for the sake of the drops and also since there are so many defeat-alls anyways. The potential for craptastic is there, however, if your team doesn't have the right tools to quickly mow down the PPs. Stupid PP MOG!|

Numi plow is the worst imo. The hunts take up so much time, if you take the time to plow through the glowie/boss mishes it can easily hit the 3 hour mark.

basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.
Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

Just thought I'd pop in here to announce it, too-think I'm going to make the Silver Mantis sf this Wednesday a total plow. Only mission we might short just a LITTLE bit is the last one...those damn flyers can get a bit tedious.
So, Wednesday, 6/2/10, 7 pm CST, full-on PLOW Silver Mantis SF! C'mon out and help us grind ourselves into oblivion!
Basically too many 50's to count, but I'm generally a brute/scrapper/tank kind of guy.
Kay and Mag count me in.
Now as for speeding through TFs there is only one that I do that we ever stealth a mission and that is the ITF and we are always going for a MITF. The mission is the stupid crystals but by leaving the group at the door the ambush comes to the place where all the people are at....makes the mission easyer and you still get a ton of XP
I'm still not sure why a new chan needed to be added. It's easy enough to just specify "plow" or "speed" in tw. Meh, what evers :P

I'm interested in this channel. I gave Triumph a try but was turned away because the global channel I was in was too... "humorous" ... for my tastes.
Bulldozers would be the same if I could get my invite >.>
I still think plows are the way around pling for people who hate "farms/pls".

I would like to join this channel please. @Nemesis TDA
*revives thread*
Kinda stopped promoting the channel for a while since I was gone for a majority of the summer and all last month. But going to try again, and I'm sure it'll help keep Triumph active. So just let me know if you need an invite.
Just a side note, I don't think this channel is just about killing stuff - it's also how MB and I seem to team daily. We team with friends, make new friends, and overall just have a great time on the game we love. Getting back to the core of what makes Triumph the friendly server. That is all.

Ironically, bulldozing is one of the reasons I don't team so much these days. Was tired of blowing through content.

That, I can fully get behind. More drops, more XP, more Inf, etc.
I'm a notorious speeder, but I has lotsa toons that need exp. Channel seems like a good idea, but I also wish we could make it a habit to specify in TW announcements whether it's speed or plow. I don't mind a plow but a surprise plow....ugh
Also lol @ canz
