Standoff

Gratz to all 3 of you - keep this up and we'll take Hami yet!

Hey you!

You might be based on a slightly iffy server, but big wb's even so! Great to see you on the boards again!

Big gratz Rad - now we can suffer renewed altohism together!

Thanks to all, and especially to Jiaozy who organised this afternoon's AV bash, and the rest of that team - took me from 49.2 all the way up to 50 (and beyond)!

It would have been far less fun on the way up without the help and teaming from all of you at different stages, and especially from the Rangers, the Whole Bees, the B Team (now defunct) and the rest of the 1AT network.

Stand may be played much less now (mainly badgehunting I suspect), but be certain I'll not be vanishing myself - all those lovely alts to level up, and now a chance to start Khelds too!

And finally, a screenie with the barest hint of dingage - was a bit slow on the button there and almost missed it completely!

Standoff...away!

I'm up for this with my main - if Battle Maiden's on your hit list that would be great, as according to my notes she's the last one I need for the badge, but happy to come along and blast in any event.

At 49.2 now, so may just hit the cap if there're enough to burn through...

Another guy deficient of MI pets here - about 2/3 of quota bagged, but with no Carnie missions imminent to meet them in.

So, would be up for them or most anything else we might be doing - will keep an eye on the badgehunter channel if/when I'm on through the evening and join in on whatever's going.

Stand's got all but one of the later Maria Jenkins Praets, IIRC, and I'm booked for Hess as an alt later in the evening, but if you need a bit of extra firepower and I am on as my main send me a tell. Always happy to drop in and blast AVs.

Gratz D-Zol - you made it in the end!

(This means there's hope for me yet...)

I'd be on for bringing my D3, Darkhark, out of storage for Hess - she's level 25, and of course I'm happy for her to be SKed if the general team levels turn out to be towards the top end of the TF range.

So there I was, just finished soloing the penultimate mission on the World Wide Red arc and making plans to advertise the final Titan/Master of Olympus mission in the forum for badge hunters, when I exit to Talos and...get handed the timed Titan mission on the spot!

Quick check - no, absolutely no other Rangers on line - so out went a rather panicked call on Coalition and UnionBadgehunters chat, plus a few pleas on my global friends list.

Happily a few kind souls stepped forward, and a couple of others allowed themselves to be drafted too, and in the end a surprisingly balanced team of:

Illumina
Blaze Johnson
Tufty
Fire
RobotClaw
Standoff

went in. There were a few deaths (particularly from Blaze, who seemed to be playing Ambush Magnet) but we all came out with zero debt and a nice badge for our troubles.

So, thanks again to the rest of the team for helping at such short notice, and here are a few screenies to remember it all by:

Sizing up the foe

Battle joined

Snipes FTW! (Biiiiiiig robot!)

[And I think that is the entire team - muchos apologies if my memory's packed up again and left anybody off!]

The idea appeals, and I'm about for part of tomorrow evening, but can't guarantee being there all the way through.

Would it be OK if I drop in and out as RL commitments demand? (Subject to there being an actual space on the team when I appear, of course! )

Other possible event if there's time: Did you ever get round to the Prisoner bash last year?

Great idea D I want one level 50 of each AT as well as 2 blasters

All you'll still all get there before me.

4pm Sunday's good for me.

If you want some extra firepower I can bring my main along, although it looks like he may be a bit above the level range you were after. Happy to exemp if you'd prefer.

Mega-Gratz to one and all!

And if Doulos hadn't been slowed down by debt it just wouldn't have been right, so very good to see traditions have been maintained there too.

OK, already committed to other stuff for rest of this evening, but as there's one yes and one maybe for the tomorrow evening slot I'll make 8:00pm (UK) the new time. Servers permitting.

Will OP accordingly, if it's not too late for that.

Looks like we'll be re-arranging times anyway Max - we dashed in to try to beat the server downage, but I'm currently hung on the mission entry screen. Hope the others don't make it in and complete the mission in my absence.

OK, how about tomorrow, 2:00pm or 8:00pm (UK time in both cases) - can people make either of those?

My villain main, Alathar, has this mission and will be starting it on the evening of Tuesday 3rd Jan at 8:00pm (UK time). Probably somewhere in Sharkshead.

If you're interested, reply to this thread or send me a tell a bit ahead of time in game.

Edit: Changed kickoff time and date, after server hitches stopped Plan A coming off.

Big gratz on a big level, Lumi!

Against all the odds I'm able to make a post mid-week (one of my parents' neighbours turns out to have an unsecured wireless node...), so gratz SB!

Gah! Nightmare at any time, but a few days before Christmas...

Commiserations DK - will be thinking of you, and you and the family have a great time despite the [censored]s, y'hear?

Yeah, come on back Aero! There are prezzies for you!

[/em Shakes a few prezzy insps, then quickly stuffs the one that makes broken glass noises behind his back]

Happy Christmas to all on Union and The Other Place, and have an excellent New Year!

Gratz Pol!

Cheers Kin - have a great Christmas and New Year!
