November Tanker Tuesdays
For the Freedom TT on the 16th, I'd be willing to lead a level 44+ team on the 3rd Respec Trial (if there's any interest in that). And I plan to run it at +4/x8.

How come there isn't one in virtue? Does no one like it there?
Instead of having a real Tanker Tuesday, the folks on Virtue role-play that they're at a Tanker Tuesday.

I can't to top Sailboat's reply for wittiness, so I'll just give the facts.
The first three weeks of the month are assigned to specific servers, (Champion, Justice and Freedom) and the last one or two weeks rotate between servers. I believe Virtue had a TT last month or the month before.
So patience! It'll come around to Virtue again.

Another Successful Tanker Tuesday on Champion. We had one lvl 50 mission team and another team running Synapse.
Synapse was done in 2:03.
There were a couple of tanks who did show up, but we didn't get to them in time to get them on a team. For that I do apologize.

Come show your resolve and fight my brute!

Option 1: Split the 3rd Tuesday between Freedom and Virtue, even months itll be on Freedom, odd months it will be on Virtue (or vice-versa). Why would this be considered as an option? Turnout for TTs on Freedom has been dropping over the last few months (TT burnout? Or maybe our timing conflicts with a server event?). In any case we could alternate between the two largest server populations and maximize the bang for our Tuesdays.
Option 2: Alternate the 4th Tuesday between touring servers and Virtue, Even months it will be on Virtue, odd months on a tour server. The downside I see to this is we would not be back to the other servers as frequently as Id like and wed lose some (about half) of our flexibility/response time to get to other servers and requests for TTs.
Option 3: Virtue gets the 4th Tuesday, Downside the tour is essentially stalled. Wed only be able to visit tour servers when there are 5 Tuesdays in a month.
Option 4: Virtue gets the 5th Tuesdays and we still tour to it, Upside the tour continues to roll, Virtue gets approx 3-4 set TTs plus a few more by way of the tour.
Option 5: TT is much too big for only Tuesdays! Open another day for either the tour or Virtue.
Please let me know what you think and if you have other ideas please post them. Remember the goal is to maximize TTs, keep the tour going and promote Tanking. Nothing is written in stone, so lets keep the discussion positive and look for solutions that benefit all.
Thanks in advance for your ideas and suggestions,

Regarding the question about more TTs on Virtue, this is something Ive been looking at and talking with a few of the other Tanker Tuesday regulars and players that help me continue the tour (all your help is much appreciated). The question is how to get more TTs in to a four Tuesday a month schedule. Turnout on Virtue is usually very good and definitely deserves more Tanking time (last tour date there was August). Ive got a few ideas that Id like discussed so everyone has a chance to weigh in and brainstorm some possibilities and solutions. Please remember the goal is to promote Tanking and TTs so well need to keep some Tuesdays open for touring/reloads.

I would go with option 1

I'll try to show up for the Pinnacle date. I have a couple tanks that need levels on them over there, and very little time to play these days.

I would also go with option 1.

I'm not sure if I was the first one to float the idea of alternating week three's Tanker Tuesday between Freedom and Virtue to Warboss, but I think that's the best option.
So Option 1 most certainly gets my vote.

Option 1 (though this means I'll need to roll a tank on Virtue!)

Running the respec sounds good. When we start organizing teams step up front with me and we'll see if we can get it set up.

Sorry I missed TTJ tonight. Hope it was fun.
As a follow up to Nuclear's question about week three Tanker Tuesdays; does anyone have any objection to alternating between Virtue and Freedom for that Tuesday?

As far as the whole Virtue question floated above, me likey option one.

Tanker Tuesdays & Brutal Thursdays. If you like fun, look'em up!
Shhh! Rangle is plotting.
Tossing in my 2 inf on the question of scheduling...
It does seem that option 1 would allow the most flexibility.
I suppose I could go on with all my reasonings, but at this hour it would just turn into random ramblings.

Thanks all for your input, and I'd like to give credit where credit is due. After I had been discussing a few TT scheduling issues and events with him, Rangle proposed the alternating schedule. I think it's a great idea and look forward to seeing the new schedule in action. Now we'll get more Tank time on more servers. So, thank you Rangle for your on going counsel and help. I'd also like to thank all the other players (there are so many that I'm sure I'd forget to list someone...) that make it a point to show up to the events, lead teams and provide feedback and ideas for missions, themes and events.
Thank you all for supporting TTs and the ongoing TT tour!

All my tanks are on Protector
I'd have to check, but it seems like we were just on Protector. Of course there's no reason you can't roll a new Tank and join us on one of the other servers.

Tanker Tuesday on Freedom on the 16th!
As it turns out I have another family obligation that's going to fall on this date, so I'll once again not be there for the fun. So, if all you vet TTer's could get things rolling I'd appreciate it.
I was hoping we could run ITF as our TF for the evening, but feel free to modify the TF of the night to whatever everyone feels like doing or what we have enough toons in range to run.
Cainus, last TT on Protector was in August, so we'll be back your way soon.

Oooh, if someone leads a +4 ITF on Freedom's TT, then I'd be down for joining that. But if not, I will still be available to lead a +4 3rd Respec Trial.
