Rommy is no exception-- I can admit that my build does not have an optimal single target attack chain, but it is still at a point where I feel that the addition of three equally matched Warshades alone should have no trouble taking down an ITF.
The Peacebringers should be viewed as "nice extra damage" while they were alive, but the Warshades alone had the potential to tackle the TF. The problem was that members of our TF were severely underutilizing their characters... This is why I posted some guides in the Kheldian Fridays thread, in an attempt to avoid something like this happening in the future.

Fine, we can settle this elsewhere... With a duel!~
(lol just kidding. PVP sucks.)
And the last day of Laylapalooza draws to a close! But first, a recap of today:
We began at noon with...ummm...*looks over notes of what we did* Oh right! We did an all scrapper Sister Psyche TF 
We managed to fill with 7 scrappers, and took a Stalker as well along with us. (Don't worry, we kept an eye on her!)
Afterwards, we attempted to run an all defender Synapse TF, but then I realized that we were going to be doing the longest Freedom Phalanx TF with nothing but lowbie defenders. Sooo...long story short, we switched out to a Posi part 2. I think everyone was happy with that decision, haha.
Afterwards, we had a bit of dejavu as we brought our blasters to the Positron TF--but this time, we did both parts. We also managed to find enough people for two teams. 
Finally, we wrapped up the whole event with our beach soccer event, wherein we kicked around Jack in Irons for a while, before putting him out of his misery. Unfortunately we couldn't seem to break his knockback protection, but we did knock him on his keester quite a few times.
After his death, we hosted a quick costume contest for the best beach outfit. We had originally planned on only one winner, but the ideas we saw were so interesting that we had to award a 2nd and 3rd place prize as well.
1st place (a Layla doll) went to Gummi (@Spoke) for her excellent take on a bikini outfit (which I unfortunately didn't get a close up picture of 
) seen here.
2nd place (200 million influence) went to Thuggy the clown (@Verbrand) for his funny one piece swimsuit. Way to keep stylin', Thuggy!
And 3rd place (100 million influence) went to Monk Brawlin (@Dark Chaos) for his unique take on male swim trunks and his "I'm heading to the beach" smile. /e thumbsupdude
And so the event ended. Layla and I had a fun time, and we hope you did too. We already have new ideas for the next one, too! (Though we will be bringing in more help for that one.)
To paraphrase a dude on TV.....
Stone Daemon, out!
Oh, and one more thing...
I'd like to again thank @Bellpei, @AIB, and @Septipheran for donating to the event. It was very much appreciated! Also, special thanks to @Zaloopa for his special SFS run/costume contest, @Stalemate for his promoting help, and @Drake Crator for helping us host this. And of course, thanks to the rest of you for showing up to our events.
If anyone is interested in helping us plan for and host the next one, please PM me. Thanks!
ALSO GEEK! because he gave me mattress stuffings aka inf 
kissy geek
It was great fun all weekend and gave me a reason to get Thuggy a new outfit.
Vebrand
Protector is my primary server and Baron Rage my primary toon. You may catch me on numerous others though including the clown family of Thuggy, Looney Bin, and Last Laff as Clowns are scary,
Another fun day folks! A bit easier this time around, in my opinion, but that may be due to the lack of stressful master runs
(Picture above was taken during the trial, since I forgot to take the screenshot during the CoP. Oops!)
) I brought my fire tank and was a heat seeking missle of destruction for team 1. Boom goes the Vandal. 
We started the day with the SG/VG base contest, and we had 5 hero entries, and 1 villain entries. They were all unique in their own ways, and personally I would have loved to see them all win. However, Layla compromised and instead gave two supergroups the reward! The winners were @Mave's "Shining Brigade" and @Mr Grey's "Grey's Army!" Some pictures for your viewing pleasure!
@Mave's Shining Brigade: Bowling Alley, Movie theater, and Prison!
Bi-Polar Bear's D I S A V O W E D: Reading room and prison.
@Mr Grey's Grey's Army: Boxing Ring, Firing Range, and private rooms.
The Intrepid Allegiance: Tech room and meeting room.
Paragon's Punishers: (The vast amount of their base was a giant maze, so the only picture I could smuggle out was of this neato swimming pool)
@Zaloopa's Singularity: Sneaky hidden Man-cave and a dark church.
After all that was over, we managed to fill up for a Cathedral of Pain run, and successful it was! We had a little bit of difficulty with Big Red's regen, but we pulled through and everyone got their badges. Great job folks!
Afterwards, since we had a bit of time until the next event, we decided to spontaneously run a Lambda trial! Someone on my team unlocked destiny, and we all had a great time.
Next up was the all controller Manticore TF! I have never seen enemies melt that fast before, honestly. It was tons of fun
Afterwards, we again had a bit of time until the next event, so I figured we should go ahead and round off our day with another trial--this time a BAF! I had assumed I could grab two teams and do a small one, but BAM we had a third team from outta left field. But you know what? We wrecked that trial GOOD.
Afterwards, we began the all Kheld ITF. It unfortunately didn't end well, and we stalled out on the final Romulous battle due to lack of DPS (our squishier allies kept getting under fire and the healing nictus made sure the EB's and bosses in the surrounding mob stayed alive to give us a hard time.
Next up was the all tank Bastion--er, um, Citadel TF! But first--Layla decided to hold an impomptou tanker costume contest. We had several entries, and two winners. First place (A Layla doll) went to @Max Davonyx, who won with their heroine tank costume, and second place (100 million influence) went to @Exercitus for his futuristic tech tank costume. Afterwards, we managed to get two tank teams for Citadel (the second team had two brutes!
Shortly after we started, @Zaloopa began his special edition of Strike Force Sunday! They ran the MoBarracuda (and were unfortunately unsuccessful due to a cheating haxx0r Reichsman) and had a villainous costume contest afterwards.
And finally, we wrapped up our evening with a fire, ice, and storm version of the Numina Task Force! At one point we literally froze Jurassik while he was on fire, and blasted him with a thunderbolt. It was epic.
Tomorrow is the last day of Laylapalooza! I hope to see you all there, and hope you're all having as great a time as I am.
