P.E.R.C. presents: Mission: xcellence
Posted it on the City of Heroes - Guardian Server Facebook page. I'll try to make it, but it's a little short notice and I am not sure how RL will affect my evening. But, if I get a chance, I'll pop in to participate. I am a non-author, but I have one somewhere that I was working on, but I will be happy to help critique and provide feedback to other folks arcs.
Thanks for running these SupaFreak!

Thanx for posting it on FB... I haven't been on my account in too long.
It was very short notice... and I wanted to keep first session small, which was good.
By doing this weekly and having the ability to pop in for one arc and go... I hope some will find a way to wedge themselves in.
And, I'm open to rotating the night of the week to meet someone's schedule if need be, just need info ahead of time.
The logic behind "Mission: Æxcellence"
The greater the demand for player-created content improves the chances that authors and mission designers will be given greater tools in which to present their stories and missions. Therefore, "Mission: Æxcellence" has been created in hopes of bringing together positive and community-minded individuals to improve the quality and demand of player-created content.
Almost sounds like a mission statement! O.O
What's this about?
- Sessions of aspiring authors and avid mission players within the Architect Entertainment system to provide testing, plays and feedback to participating authors in a positive and respectful manner.
- Note that authors who participate more will have their arcs given higher priority, but will only be 1 at a time. Otherwise, lower rating and lower played arcs will be the priority.
- The driving force behind these sessions will be the community and the continued participation in helping aspiring authors and mission designers provide a highly polished finished product they can be proud of.
- There will be no special treatment towards any author due to their veteran or A/E status. How soon an author's creation (or re-creation) gets played will be based on their participation.
Who is this for?- First and foremost, positive-minded people who get involved.
- These sessions are for those who want to be inspired and be an inspiration to the community around them... continuously.
- These sessions will not be for those who simply want to create a mission or arc, publish it, advertise it and hope for plays while they are off doing missions, task forces and trials.
- For the non-authors, these sessions will be a way to voice your opinons on how authors can better improve aspects of their creations.
What genre of arcs are valid?- Every genre except blatant farms. Canon-related, comedy, horror, origin, etc. are all welcome.
- Please have a "Published" product and do "Test" mode beforehand, even if the work is "In Progress" is fine.
- It will be encouraged to see your creations for what they are, and not for what they are wanted to be.
- Individuality is high on the list of priorities here, but please be open to input.
Where are the sessions held?- Primarily on the Guardian server until VIPs get free server transfers, at which time I will gradually move alts to all servers with highest popularity of participating authors home servers first.
- The Architect Entertainment building in Rikti War Zone will be the meeting point, so all levels and archetypes are welcome.
How often are the sessions held?- Wednesday nights from 9-11pm Eastern / 6-8pm Pacific unless stated otherwise. See "Next Session" below.
- Note that participants do not need to be present the whole time.
- Additional nights and times may be added in the future to meet demands.
