Also, I totally forgot how to Add Image to a post. I keep trying to add a poster made of the group that came out to pose for me last week in FBZ and damn it all it's not working!

Yay! Don't know when I'll have time to join one, but Feride has been a part of this the past two years. Can't wait to be there again! Maybe next year I'll have another toon on Champion of a level to join in.
Champion: Feride Edain, Level 50 Vigilante Blaster; Quicksilver Cure, Level 33 Controller; Silent Gemini, Level 44 Tanker; Aisa Moirai, Level 19 Villain Dominator
Virtue: Aurora's Blaze, Level 50 Peacebringer; Atrytone, Level 50 Tanker
last year, really meant to join in but either there was bad timing or teams filled.
I have the weekends off reliably and would like to express my interest in joining 1 team w/ my cold/ice defender duo. I know there'll be some belly-aching about taking up 2 spots, but assuming this is premised on a first come first announce basis, im announcing my intent now. Of course, if people get TOO melodramatic about it whether i take up 2 much room or speculate on my ability to effectively dualbox in that type of situation, then i'll just mine my own business and lead my own TF, which ive had to do in the past....
...to Champion Server for its 5th Straight Year!
At least I think this is 5 years old. I'd have to check with the remnants of the Angels of the Night SG, they were the ones who first hosted a round of Shard TFs when first the Rularuu arrived on our shores...
The Plan:
Every October, the weekends are dedicated toward the running of each of the four Shard Task Forces, one in each (mostly) Shard Realm. Firebase Zulu has Dr. Quaterfield. Cascades Archipelago has Sara Moore. The Chantry has Justin Augustine. And the Storm Palace has Faathim the Kind (his start within the Chantry at his home base, but works mostly in the Storm realm). One each weekend, in order, during the first four weekends (the fifth weekend is Halloween weekend, and would be wrong to interfere with the Real Life need of GETTING CANDY!). There are rumors of a full-bore one-day running of all FOUR Shard TFs, but that is called a Shardathon and requires A) a strong constitution and B) a computer that won't crash after 8 straight hours of play.
The Situation:
Each Task Force requires a full team of 8 members to start. While you don't need a full 8 at the end to finish, it helps to keep the whole team on until the final mission. Two of the TFs have powerful AVs at the end (Sara Moore, Faathim the Kind), so keeping a full team on those is a must-have.
The Task Forces have level requirements: Dr. Q is 40-44, Sara Moore 40-50, Justin Augustine 44-50, and Faathim 44-50. A balanced team - Aggro taker, Damage dealers, Buffers and Debuffers - is recommended for each TF run.
The Offer:
Given the difficulty of getting people on the fly to sign up for any TF (some team lineups take longer to form than the actual TFs, damn it all), I have sign-up sheets on the forums here for teams to fill out. Each week before the planned TF (usually by the Monday before) I will post a thread on the forums asking for teams, and leave space on the forum post for people to Quote, Edit and Add their Name, @Global, Level, and Build Archetype.
Due to people's schedules, a team will be offered for each day - Saturday and Sunday.
If one team fills with more people expressing an interest, a second team sign-up will be added to the thread. If people want to run a TF but have a problem with the start time, an alternate start time (usually for the evenings) can be added to the list.
The Problem:
I want to post this right now. I may be unavailable to host either of the first weekend's Shard TF (Dr. Quaterfield) because there is a Real-Life Event (The March for Jobs in Washington DC) going on that I plan on visiting. As such, I can help with getting the sign-up sheets started, but I *will* need volunteers to lead both the Saturday AND Sunday Shard TFs for me.
The Promise:
I promise there will be giant eyeballs, Fake Nemeses, Circle of Thorns, Mad Gods, Angry Gods, Kind Gods and flying. Tons of flying (the Shard realms are floating islands in other dimensional realms: They DO have Jet Pack vendors in three of the zones in case no one on your teams have Recall Friend handy).
And Fun. And Influence and XP. And Recipe and Salvage Drops. And Rularuu-based Costume Items like shields and weapons. Maybe even a Purple Recipe (hope). Also Fun.
Deal?
