I have a toon on virtue, i'll be there and also pass the word on protector
To the Virtue Mega-SGs I know there's a few that host regular costume contests, or otherwise have been great at supporting the Virtue community in ways like this. I just... am a recluse and never kept track of who did what when! (Yes, I'm shy. :P )
I would LOVE to see a costume contest every hour on the hour after the "official Unity Rally" one at 6pm Eastern, with the next general-fun one starting at 7pm, then one at 8pm, and so on. What I suggest is that SGs or individuals can start calling dibs on times and then those wanting to help at the same times will connect with one another to coordinate efforts (I will be happy to volunteer to help y'all coordinate). Not everyone can make it at 5-6ish EST so I'd like to see us keep the party going all night long so everyone can participate.
Post here or in the cross-posted thread if you would like to help keep the hourly Atlas CC's going, with what -o'clock you want to participate in! We might want to come up with streamlined CC procedures to keep things from bogging down, and to keep the use of the major channels for CC purposes down to a minimum... There's going to be Positively Perfect Paragon-Proponenting bedlam.

Darn it I really want to be there, but I can't. Every year for the past 8 years or so me, my hubby and my daughter go to a baseball game in Pittsburgh with my hubby's father and it happens to land on this saturday so I won't even be home. I hope everything goes well and I will be there in spirit and I am sorry I can't make it.
Cancel the kitchen scraps for widows and lepers, no more merciful beheadings and call off christmas!
Character transfers, eh? Not a bad idea, but I don't think I'd do that. Sam Tow has so much wrong with him I'd need to fix that starting a new level 1 alt would be easier. Or should I bring a 50, even if he's effectively "broken?"

Since all players now have access to the Beta server... why not hold this contest there? Can always copy toons or make new ones for the contest...

Virtue wouldn't be my first choice either (my presence there is slight), but best not to change the plan at this point. Lots of notices have already been posted, and the copy tool can be flaky in the best of times. Whatever toon I bring will be new, anyway.

Please try MA arc ID 351455, "Shard Stories: Scavenger's Hunt." Originally created for the Dr. Aeon contest, it explores the wild potential of one of the City's most concept-rich but content-poor settings: the Shadow Shard.
Another event this Saturday that I won't be able to make - long-standing obligation for my Society for Creative Anachronism hobby - Harvest Day/Tournament of Chivalry.
And I know several CoH players will be also attending Harvest Day, dagnabbit!
I will see if there is someone trustworthy who is willing to log me in for the event - my sister is also a long-time players.
Or if this is re-run another day, I will really, really try to make it there.

i was thinking about this, the only problem i see with it is not many poeple have beta installed (mostly forumites), also in game its much easier to rally/spread the word to poeple who dont regularly go to forums with the help/lfg channels

Yes, I will be there broadcating on The Cape Radio... but would love to see the other CoH radio stations out there in on this too. This is about bringing a community together and as many voices as possible to spread the word.|

I'll send a note off to Granny Warbucks. I'm sure she'd love to attend.
Of course, knowing her as I do, I'm sure her comment on the Costumes will be
"You dears go ahead. Indulge and enjoy yourselves. I'll be quite content just watching
all the people and seeing all the pageantry. ".

CAN'T MAKE IT UNTIL AFTER 7PM EASTERN OR EVEN MUCH, MUCH LATER? COME ON OVER WHEN YOU GET HOME TO HELP KEEP THE PARTY GOING!
We need people to keep the Unity going as far into the night as people are able to keep it going. Ideas so far are:
- Costume contests every hour on the hour.
- AE, DFB and other insta-port Trials for powerleveling visiting toons
- Cape and other radio station boosting
- Taxibot exploration badge tours
And by "we", I mean "everybody who wants to save Paragon"! I'll be trying to help out with whatever I can for as long as I can, but I can only be in one zone at once. This is an All-Hands-On-Deck scenario here, so every positive, polite, patient and persistent effort is exactly what we need!
THANK YOU!!

Hey all, just a quick update. This event is going out in a press blitz as I type this, so PLEASE make every effort to come. We may very well have some incognito press people coming to see what it's about. I doubt they'll announce their presence, but just make sure you represent!

Posted in the Best Costume Design thread, too. If anyone can made good designs in the costume creator, it's them!

I am going, and so is my boyfriend. He joined on Saturday to experience the game that has consumed my world, and will never see such a wonderful sight as all of the game, coming together, to make fun of the devs.

But I hope it's clear we're coming together to support and maybe poke fun the devs (probably by going genially over the top), not make fun of! The two can be pretty near each other, but the spirit is of Unity, so hopefully folks will stay aware of where that line is. It's the difference between laughing with and laughing at, I guess!
