Black Friday Shadow Shard TF Marathon!


Archiviste

 

Posted

This November 25th, the day after Thanksgiving, I will be running the Shadow Shard Task Force Marathon beginning at 9 am PST/noon EST.

We will be running all four Shadow Shard TFs-the Dr. Quaterfield, the Sara Moore, the Justin Augustine, and the Faathim the Kind-in a row, back-to-back, with only very short breaks in between.

I would like to have the same team for the entire time if at all possible, but if we lose folks along the way, I'll be calling out for reinforcements in Protector Vigilance and Protector TFs.

To participate in this event, you must post your global handle at the very least. Folks can swap toons between TFs if they want to but I need to know where I can send a tell to get in touch with you!

1.) @MissKyo - Risus Occultus, Archery/Dark Corr
2.) @Roah Brett
3.) @El D
4.) @tiggy
5.) @Globetrotter
6.) @Zaloopa
7.) @Ceus
8.) @Mentalshock

Waiting List:


And no. This event does not come with brain bleach. Supply your own. :P

I'm Canadian, and our Thanksgiving was October 10th, so I don't get November 25th off...

But I'll be rooting for y'all !

Holding one spot in reserve for @Mionas, in case we're actually not being forced to share a computer by then...please let the laptop run CoH, please let the laptop run CoH, please let the laptop run CoH...

I like in with one of mine. Will decide what and who depending on the team makeup

Count me in too! I'm not sure which character I'll bring yet, it'll probably depend on what the team needs.

Updated! I also added the toon I will likely be on for the entire marathon-my badger may need the badges, but I really like my corr lately. Plus she has fly and tp, so she'll be easier to get around on. >.>

What the heck, I'll bring my Time/Fire Defender on this!

(Or *possibly* Mentalshock himself.....)


(Does saying his name count as posting my global since it's @Mentalshock?)

Our team is now full! However, I will be signing folks who are interested up for the waiting list, in case one of our signed-up folks has to drop out at some point! Please let me know if you'd like to be put on the waiting list!

Also, I plan on being on Skype* for the duration of the marathon, so if you would like to join me, please send me a pm with your Skype name. Unless, of course, you're already one of the folks I talk to all day long... <looks pointedly at Ceus and D>

*Skype is free, doesn't use up a lot of memory, and doesn't crash my computer when I use it in conjunction with CoX, which is why I use it. I am aware there is a Ventrilo server and probably also a Teamspeak server, but I strongly prefer Skype. Apologies if you dislike/can't use it for some reason.

You are waiting listed.

Anyone who wants to join us on Skype to cheer us on/keep us awake is welcome too.

It looks like Mio will not be able to join us tomorrow. Sad sad, the laptop does not work.

Therefore, Tiggy has been moved to the team list! See you tomorrow!

We'll be meeting on the Peregrine Island side of the portal to Firebase Zulu, at noon EST/9 am PST!

So I made the mistake of grabbing a can of Mountain Dew out of the fridge at around 11 pm PST...

It is now 2:45 am PST...

I am still incredibly hyped up...

I think I may be even more sleep deprived than usual for the SSTFM. Should be interesting, if nothing else, to see how long it takes me to start making up random silly songs to keep myself sane...

Oh wait...it's too late for sanity...MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

Three hours of sleep and I am READY! > Let's DO THIS!

By the way, I'll be taking screenshots of our times after every TF is completed. Because I figure someone's gonna want that for posterity. Haven't done this since before the Incarnate stuff was added, long range teleport and Afterburner existed, and before a lot of people had ATT.

And I have begun adding people on Skype.

Dr. Q, COMPLETED! I know it's hard to see in the screencap, but our time was 4:26:28, with 111 deaths (most of which were Mentalshock). One down, three to go!

Having everyone on Skype while we do this makes it that much more epic. Especially with the schoolgirl-esque giggling.

Sara Moore, COMPLETE! 2:05:50 and only 52 deaths this time. Half the time, half the deaths, what are you gonna do. At least we're consistent.

We're taking 15 minute breaks between TFs to stretch, bio break, eat, etc. Next up: Justin Augustine!

Justin Augustine TF, COMPLETED! Only 11 deaths this time, with a time of 1:23:52! Nice work!

A 20 minute break and we'll be on our way on Faathim the Kind's TF, the last leg of our journey!

Faathim the Kind TF, COMPLETED! 51 deaths, 2:33:13 was our time!

Total of 10 hours, 29 minutes, and 23 seconds time on the Task Forces, plus 50 minutes of rest time. Well done everyone who signed up-VERY well done indeed.

I promise not to run this for another six months...or until I lose my mind again...

I had a blast with this, the shadow shard zones are some of my favorites in the game.


Now let us never speak of this again. >.>

That's still shorter (breaks included) than the very first time I ran Sara Moore TF way back when. That was some 14 hours straight. Started at around 2 pm and didn't finish until 4 am. Luckily it was a weekend.

I will likely sign up again if you do another one, time and work permitting. It was loads of fun.

This was madness. Insanity.

I'd do it again!
