The American Legion Family of Super Groups is proud to present the Fourth Annual Memorial Day Weekend Event in Galaxy City! The event will be held on Saturday May 28, 2011 at Galaxy City's Freedom Court! The party kicks off at 8 PM Eastern and goes until 11 PM Eastern!

The event will consist of costume contests, scavenger hunts, an AE challenge, trivia, and more!

We will once again host a Best of Archetype Costume Contest...this year with the coming of Going Rogue we will host the contest in Archetype Groups. The winner of each Archetype Group will then compete for Best Overall Costume. The breakdown of Archetype groups is as follows:

1. Tanks/Brutes
2. Scrappers/Stalkers
3. Defenders/Masterminds
4. Blasters/Corruptors
5. Controllers/Dominators
6. HEAT/VEAT

The winner of each AT Group will receive 200 Million Influence while Honorable Mentions will receive 75 Million. The winner of the overall costume contest will win 800 Million!

Following the AT Group Costume Contests there will be a Best Patriotic Costume Contest--the best Patriotic look wins 1 Billion Influence! Honorable Mentions will receive 200 Million

A Scavenger Hunt will be held during the evening; along with an AE challenge. Prizes will be awarded for each player who successfully completes the Hunt and/or the AE challenge.

A team of Legionnaires will also be auctioned off to participate with the highest bidder on a tf, event or story arc of their choice.

Trivia will be held throughout the night with the first correct respondent receiving 10 Million influence for their knowledge in US History, Memorial Day trivia, City of Heroes/Villains game trivia, and comic trivia!

There will be an end of the night door prize raffle as well!

Billions in prizes...and a good time! Be there!

Not to be on a downer.

First, I LOVE the CCs that the American Legion hosts. Gives me the opportunity to see what you crazy goons come up with!

I am...in a bad way. I will be undergoing chemotherapy. I collapsed at work, and I have a tumor.

Found out this past Tuesday.

I wanted to say that I LOVE this game. All of you have been wonderful.

It's hard to write this when I just bought a new computer, and now I am typing this on my old gateway laptop! haha.

Take care, everyone. I will think of you fondly, and hopefully, often.

Big Shoutouts!
