>>Tanker Tuesday 7YR BLOWOUT!!! - Tuesday Oct 4th -

Had a great time (first Tanker Tuesday, and third Tanker attempt of all time, but I'm really enjoying the Shields/MA combo, I always wanted to try MA and I think the devs did a great job with it on Tankers) and still got half a bil for the Posi race win plus a Kinetic Combat someone (I think Ace) gave me when I wasn't looking because I was just reading stuffs while standing pretty in the CC! Thanks for the fun!

Posi team screenie (unfortunately I didn't remember at the moment how to take screenshots with the UI):



And a huge one from some people at the Costume Contest, since it's at 2500xsomething I'll post the link: http://i.imgur.com/OAdxE.jpg

Our time for that winning Posi was 41:26.

Not bad for tanks.

We would have been faster but we bogged down in mish 3 trying to get the groups with the bosses.

Heh true we screwed up in that mission, but it was a good time. I did one after on my human PB that went very smoothly (no rushing nor avoiding mobs but we steamrolled the thing with one teamwipe at the clones because some charged into the bosses, but well that happened in every Posi I did so far that went well like no squishies dying even in the CoT ambush, then the team charges in the clones and faceplant) - the time was around 55 mins and there was only a hospital trip, and that on a group with debuffers plus lots of damage, my PB wasn't even afraid to lead with AoEs, only the clones were pulled by me in the end (after the team faceplanted the first time lol but I expect a teamwipe in the final battle when a regular group - like a not all tanker one - charges on those cheaters who have powers our toons didn't pick ).

Thanks for the awesome fun time at TT7Yr! I had a blast, even got to bring an old friend in on the fray.

Here's a small pic of us at KR 1!

I have pics of the two teams that ran the Positron Race.

Thank you, tankers, for running the Posi Race!

Okay it's a little corn-fusing with multiple threads floating about but I figure I'll drop these over here too in case people don't see the other thread.


I nabbed a good two-tree pictures myself. KR1. Here's a few samples. Click on them for the full 1920x1080.

Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

While there were quite a few excellent costumes being displayed, these are the final winners of the contest:



Harcore Overall
GRABTHAR'S HAMMER


Because you really have to be hardcore to walk around in public in a getup like that...




Harcore Runner-up
ALERIK


Really, the only thing more hardcore than a Viking is a Samurai or a Spartan.




Concept Overall
WATCHMAN


Since the JSA is no longer part of DC canon, can we have it?




Concept Runner-up
AMERICA'S DEFENDER


No name changes to placate people here.



And there you have it, the final four of the costume contest. Thank you to everyone that participated.

a special note has to be mentioned here. while we were assembling, I noticed that AMERICA'S DEFENDER was wearing this:



I explained to him after the contest that, had he gone with this one, he would have been my Most Hardcore pick.



Two winning-level costumes from the same Tanker. I like it, now let's see how he Tanks.

Only got to come out to KR2 for a little bit but I was happy to see that Justice Tanks where there to represent

Hey everyone, didn't forget about posting screenies but had to do some editing because many of them were taken "in the dark" so-to-speak!

I had a hard time narrowing the screenies down out of the 350+ that I took so you are stuck looking at approximately 60, feel free to speed through!

Now to pull the screenies of the winning bios and that will be everything I wanted to post!

How about if we make one big post for the winners -- btw the final rough tally of prizes (influence rare IO's rare salvage) between Myrmydon/C.A.P.E., Death Badger, Earthguard SG, Bramphousian, Meowtch & ace was north of $9 Billion - 1 Billion of which we gave away just to anyone who brought a lowbie to the festivities.
Thanks again to all the generosity of everyone one who donated their time and loots to help make a memorable event!

Congratulations to all the winners, and everyone who participated made for a very tough 45mins on the judges in both KR 1&2 pouring over very creative writing and wishing they had had another hour, there were just that many good Bios.
Well done!

I don't believe those pictures include the KR 2 winners.

There are some nice screenies in here, I have a few and I got a demo record of the Winter Lords fight I'll port to video when I have a few minutes of free time.

You were here.. just a quick search of tanks that weren't on hide



Melee ensues -sorry breaking the forums =]




Zwillinger agrees to come quietly - then throws confetti



There's a KR2 20mins before we start!

Thank you again to everyone who contributed your time, your money and
loot -which equates to your time- and jumping in to see that the free
flowing fun that is a staple of tanker tuesdays regular or otherwise
continues, everyone who helped in one way or another made for a
memorable evening for long time players and new comers alike, and even the devs for that matter.

The games only seven year event deserved a big splash and many of you
contributed to giving it just that and more! /em bigbearhug =)

Unfortunately I was having "Screen Capture" issues last night.

Normally I would copy paste into Photoshop, but since upgrading to Photoshop CS, all I get is a black screen. So no pics of the bios

The winners of the Bio contest in KR2....

1st Place - Alerik (Who also won a costume contest I see. Lucky Guy)

- Alerik's was well interesting and without grammer or spelling mistakes.

2nd Place - Vidirian Roo (hope I spelled that correctly)

- Roo's bio was completely funny to read. It was like a Dr. Seuss book.

3rd Place - I actually never got the 3rd place prize money until after.... I expect I was frustrated by video lag and screen issues, so it was never issued. HOWEVER. The prize would have been issued to Redmaul. So if someone can help me find him....please do so.



It was so hard to select people to read bios with these big robots getting in the way.

Sorry Folks. AS you can see my video card ain't the best. I sure would like to know what card Acemace has!

Thank you so much Dinah for posting everything!

Hmmm, I thought I sent the second and third place prizes one after another, sorry about that Dinah -- would have sent again if I realized that had happened. The third place was to be $50 mill so I will be more than happy to email it to the winner if they post in this thread with their global to make sure they get it!

<<Rangle, my post wasn't meant in any kind of way, just wanted to mention that I had already posted earlier on in the thread that there were additional bio winners that were not yet mentioned because I certainly wouldn't want anyone to feel left out. I didn't want those winners to feel as if they were not being acknowledged and therefore in reply to your post I mentioned this to make sure that they knew that we wanted to get their information in the thread as well!!>>

Thank you again to everyone that came out for Tanker Tuesday's 7th Anniversary -- we really appreciated not only the devs, contributors/judges but most certainly the participants...without them we wouldn't have all these wonderful screenies!!!
