Cross-posted on the Titan Network forums

Hey all, it's time for our next event! The coordinators at the Titan Network have been discussing what we can do to keep fans engaged and having fun, and I think we've come up with a pretty good follow-up to the Unity Rally this past weekend. I'm going to let Maressa, purveyor of our last project, announce and give the details of this one as well. I know I'll be there, and I hope you will be able to come, too!


We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

Ever since our Rally last weekend Tony and I have been working on what our next in game event should be. Rallies are great but we wanted to something a bit more active and something that non VIPs could get involved in. We also wanted something that would be a nod to the developers without whom we would have no game to play. With all of that in mind I would like to announce:

Positron's Ally

Two days of Task Force fun.

On Thursday September 20th at 9PM Eastern/ 2AM GMT

And

Saturday September 22nd at 12 Noon Eastern/5PM GMT

Join TonyV, myself and the entire Titan Network team in running the Positron Task Forces, part one and two. In the world’s biggest synchronized Positron Task Force group across all the City of Heroes Servers.

Come with a team already formed or make yourself a PUG while you’re there!

Take screenshots, chat with old friends, make new friends and listen to your favorite server based radio stations.

I'm sure I can get the SG to show up for Thursday, and help pick up anyone needing a team if we have room left! Not so sure about Saturday though. Great idea for the different times for just that reason!

Also, is there a particular server for this, or we just showing a mass of people across servers running Posi?

Last but not least, does Titan have a global network, in-game, one can subscribe to?

I couldn't agree more.

All servers. Play on your home server. Play with your friends. Or if you really want play on a different server and meet new people! The choice is yours.

Nope! Just pick your favorite! I suspect that some groups may run it multiple times, so you might even be able to switch servers if you want to bounce around.

Um...

You know, we probably would, but don't global channels have an upper limit of how many people they hold? I'd hate for folks to be left out if they couldn't join.

Awsome! I could have brought most of the SG to any server, but that makes me happy. I'll see if I can't make this a full SG event and bring our mains for pics and everything That'd be fun.

Across all servers: "In the world’s biggest synchronized Positron Task Force group across all the City of Heroes Servers."


(was that line added later, or did I just suck at reading the first time I read that post?)

The times are a bit awkward for a Pacific TZ person with a day job during the week, but I'll make a best effort.


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.

I'm in!!!! I'll talk to my SG mates, coalition mates and friends and global channels on Liberty and see if we can make it a sweeping activity.

You hear that Sentinels of Liberty, SOLUS Foundation, Sisterhood and SisterhoodFriends, LB, LFA, Liberty's Channel? We have GOT to do this!

I still recall one night running with an all Mastermind team that started at 3am. Oranbega looks really trippy when you're half asleep.

Of course, you could argue that you don't need to be awake to run in an all MM team

Added to the events calendar in my sig: http://bit.ly/NNSzsW

Maressa, if you want access to the calendar so you can edit it, PM me your GMail address.

I might make it for the Saturday one, but this week suddenly got complicated on me, and I won't make it to the Thursday one. Let me know if the timezone's right.

I'll be there if I can.

And, anyone who is going to this, please /demorecord some epic battles. I'll be needing footage, and I bet someone else who enjoys integrating instances into a single video will too.
