Old West-themed Static Team
I really really like this idea. Unfortunately given my hectic schedule I am not able to confidently say I could be there every Thursday. I do have a Western themed villain right now named Gun Hand and my old villain Merciless who was the original arch enemy to Dead West. I havent given him alot of attention in 4 years so he is still in his 30s.
However even if I am not able to join the team, I really would like to talk to you about intertwining our backgrounds. I always wanted a villain group the Dead has been in battle with since he was living, and this sounds like something I can a build a story on or maybe even an AE arc.

Ok so I thought about it and here is what I came up with. This is Merciless:
He is level 38 but what I could do, sense I may not be able to make it every week, is I can turn off xp until the team gets to 38. That would give me time to work on his build a bit and honestly I never play him so I wouldnt be playing him until Thursdays.
Lemme know what you think, but I know a few others that may be interested in this.

We're never quick to turn away new people, especilaly those with as much enthusiasm as you obviously have. Your proposal with Merciless should be workable - I don't see any problem with it and we're pretty flexible about things like this in any event.
We'd be happy to have you as part of the group, however things shake out. If you haven't already done so, I'd encourage you to get a look at the other team members and read the backstories available to get a sense of the team. Intertwining your backstory with ours certainly isn't required, just to be clear, but that level of enthusiasm and interest is more than welcome.

I did I really enjoyed that you guys hit all the Western archetypes (i.e. preacher, card player, outlaws). As far as the story goes, I always like to incorporate real in game characters to give it that lil extra kick. And these guys are amazing. Eventually I would love to do a comic book of them using screens but for now I am gonna work on merciless, and getting some of my SG mates interested.

Hello Dead West and all you other Liberty villains!
I play Widow Song (Sonic/Sonic Corruptor) on this team and I just wanted to drop a line to everyone.
This is a great group to play with, fun people and fun ideas.
You can also contact me in game with any questions or comments:

Looking forward to some gun slinging!
YA'LL realize that this is sounding like the making of the Lincoln County war.
Dead has given the nod and Merciless is looking to join a new crew. I reckon that there be a reckoning between those Rustlers and the Law.
That said should you ever find your posse in need of a bit of extra fire power in Paragon Luke Karlson the Two Gun Kid maybe able to help ya'll ride the range from time to time.

Counting Dead_West's Merciless, we are now up to five team members (meaning we have three spots open). The team will begin regular Thursday night runs this week, but anyone interested is welcome to join at any time (naturally, the sooner the better so newly created characters can quickly catch up).

I really should get my DP/Traps blaster off the shelf & play her with you all on Thursdays, I think she's currently around level 38 (or there abouts) last time I played her was with the western theme ITF.

I am part of a small group of players who run regular static teams. For those not familiar with the term, a static team is a group of characters who play exclusively with one another and level up together as a team. This structure allows for interdependency and group planning since you always know what the team makeup will be and can depend on certain elements being in play when you design your character.
This particular static team is Old West-themed and is already in progress. Two members of our regular group have left the game on an indefinite basis (a husband and wife duo. You'd think giving birth to your first child was a big deal or something, honestly...) and this has left us with openings in several of our ongoing static teams.
To that end, we're looking for new people to join us in order to help play these teams to completion and ideally to join future teams. This particular team is set to play on Thursdays from 9 to 11:30pm Eastern Standard Time, beginning on Thursday, March 17th. The team is currently at level 27. We intend to offer leveling assistance as we are able to help new people to catch up to the level of the team - thereafter, the character on the team would be played only on Thursdays with us unless a session is missed and catch-up is required.
This is a villain team and there are currently three members, meaning that we have up to five spots to fill. Anyone wanting to join should make a new Old West-themed character for the group. There are no limitations on powersets and generally anything that can be reasonably interpreted as 'Western' is acceptable - if you can creatively justify your choices, we'll probably be fine with them.
We expect that anyone who joins the static team makes a reasonable good-faith effort to attend every Thursday at the scheduled time. If you're interested but that time does not work for you, I encourage you to contact me or visit our website - you may find that one of our other static teams better fits your schedule. Please do not sign up for this team if you cannot make this scheduled weekly time with reasonable regularity. Obviously real-life events occur and we understand and excuse the occasional missed session, late arrival or early departure. We just ask that you don't make a habit of it.
For reference, I've listed the three current characters on the team as well as the team's specific page on our group's website. This website is also our primary scheduling and communication tool.
Graves' Posse - Old West themed villain static team, playing on Thursday nights from 9-11:30 EST.
Shallow Graves - Thugs/Dark Miasma Mastermind
Cold Stare - Mind Control/Icy Assault Dominator
Widow Song - Sonic/Sonic Corruptor
Any questions can be asked as replies to this post or sent to me by PM. I will update this thread periodically as people commit to the static team. If you are interested in joining, I can be contacted by PM or in-game at @Justaris
