Can someone Eventually transcribe what tony has said. Too much jibber jabber going on.

I only got into about 2/3 of the zones, but below are the Unity Rally screenshots I got when the following zones filled up after we recovered from the server crash: Atlas 8-12, 14-15, 17-19 (plus a bonus shot where Hit Streak's tushie blocked the shot for 19), 20-30, and 32!
Notes: the "8" held up in one of them was accompanied by a chant of "8 More Years!, the Hot Streak candid shot was completely accidental when he floated in as I was hitting PrtSc, and the last shot of Atlas Park 32 shows my "CuppaPaula" look front and center, in honor of our very own CuppaJo who logged in to join the rally!
Thanks a hundred billion to everyone who logged on, this was awesome!

God dammit I missed it....
I thought it was at 8PST, completely forgot you eastern folks are 3 hours BEHIND me....GRRRRRR
Thought it was 3 hours ahead of me for some reason
Anyone get a demo of it? If so could you email it to me at thorsassassin@live.com ? Been working on my #SaveCoh video and really wanted a shot of this and of course to be there in support, so frustrating. Looks like a great turnout though.

Cool! CuppaJo was here. My tagline is named for something she said once. (All respect to Virtue where we were anyway)
I was in AP33...and now I'm not...but I wonder if it might be possible to maintain a kind of standing vigil on that instance? Keep it open by keeping it populated, I think it was the highest numbered instance we got to. It would be another good gesture of solidarity by maintaining a presence, 24/7, until the lights go out or until the server crashes. LOL. Probably the latter.

I'm super tired, so here's a screenshot of Atlas 1-30 full, and I'm going to sleep:
Goodnight, everybody!

Thanks to @EnsonsDeath for the GVE code that made me VIP again!
Leandro and Samuraiko are working on something. I bet they can share.

Keep in mind the theme of the Paragon Appreciation Costume Contest. I saw several "CuppaJo" clones... and several Matt Miller clones, Melissa Bianco clones, etc.
There were definitely red names about, and there were definitely former developers about, and I'm certainly not saying that April Burba wasn't there; she may very well have been and that would be awesome. But there's a decent chance that if you saw someone without the NCsoft_ prefix on their name, they were just a regular player.
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)
I was astonished and delighted at the Atlas Park(s) turnout.
I was around and about five hours before the start and there were people gathering. Three hours before there were multiple APs. An hour before the start, the server was almost full.
Someone posted at max load there were 40 (?!) APs on virtue (I took a screenie at 29), a queue of 300 people to get in, 6 APs on Freedom and other gatherings on other servers from people who couldn't get into Virtue/didn't have slots on other servers.
Amazing.
A friend of mine doesn't come to the forum, is a low-profile player but he stopped what he was doing to get online and get to AP yesterday. THAT'S the type of community/loyal players you are trying to throw away, NCSoft.

I've had dealings with Cuppa for both the 1st and 2nd CoH anniversary parties held on Freedom as well as having Cuppa involved in special supergroup events. Messages exchanged indicated to me that yes, it was our former community rep.
Also, I was a DJ for Woot Radio and the owner, DJ Jester, knows Cuppa IRL. I can't actually speak for him, but I'm sure he would verify this.
Massively has an article about this on their front page right now.
Fans continue to show spectacular support for City of Heroes
This article has Leandro's final demoedit video.
Yes, it was indeed CuppaJo. (If anyone is curious.)

Note that that's only the SaveCOH channel, I have no idea what was said in other places.

I think making events like these a weekly occurrence sounds like a good idea.
Week 1, we've made plenty of noise but we need to keep at all the way up to the potential end. And if the end does come, we still need to keep going.
3 APs full on Freedom, we are up to 6 instances total last I looked.
