As much as I enjoyed dragging my tanker around the Shadow Shards on the original SS marathon I'm not finding the game all that enjoyable at the moment so I doubt I'd be up for taking part in the repeat. Have fun with it if you run it though

This isnt gonna happen, i would love it to but its a mammoth task.
Unless there are some new people who want to try

DB you are crackers :P
Um, I think you'd have to count Gonk and I out on this one. Doing it once was... an experience. Doing it twice would just be crackers
Hell yeah im crackers - gotta admit it would be fun though

Hello! I love the Shadow Shard TFs and would love to do them as fast as possible! Message me in-game m8, u got my global right here:
I'd love to do the SSTF's on my badger toon. So if there is room for an energy/energy blaster just send a tell to my global and let me know (@StAngelius).

Hi Kendai and St_Angelius
Before you commit to this, I have to tell you that it WILL be hard, its literately 4 of the longest task forces in 24 hours with no real brakes in between (10-15mins here and there and coffee and bio brakes when needed)
So yeah, have a think about it. Psy, Gonk and GG will probably tell you what it was like first time around if you ask nice enough lol

Well, it took 19 hours for three TFs - but that was with no short-cuts, and before IOs, vert rewards and so on came out.

oh, i know it's gona be a long one, have tried a Doc Q one before, and the resty of the team gave up after the 3rd or 4th mish after i told them how many more were to go... we had been at it for like 2.5+ hours at that point. so, definatly a randome PuG TF :-)

With IO's it could take less time (My AR/NRG blaster is fully kitted out) and with the right team even less|

Bit of linkage to see what your getting yourself into lol:

It is possible to do, just need 5/6 more people to say yes and St_Angelius to fully say yes and GG to hopefully say yes too
Mebbies have a dry run of the Dr Quaterfield one day to gage how long each will take

Oh my.. I just came back after a short break and now I see this post! While I'm tempted to do this, I'm sure I'll be begging for someone to rip my head off after the first TF or so.
@False Fiction - Virtue / Defiant
Current projects - [Glaciologist - Ill/Cold Troller] [Cloudshaper - Storm/Dark Def] [Harald Wartooth - Elec/Psi Domi]
My average times for the Shadow Shard TFs have been:
SSTF1 - 5.5 hours
SSTF2 - 3 hours
SSTF3 - 1.75 hours
SSTF4 - 3.25 hours
total being 14.5 hours
My fastest times for the Shadow Shard TFs have been:
SSTF1 - 4.5 hours
SSTF2 - 2.5 hours
SSTF3 - 1.5 hours
SSTF4 - 2.75 hours
total being 11.25 hours
I like to do these TFs fast (otherwise I don't enjoy them!) but my account will expire soon, and I'm not planning to resub for a while...
But feel free to do a marathon without me. Mine and GG's philosophies don't exactly concur so it may be best that you do it with her without me I won't mind.
Dr Quaterfield is the killer - 4 Hunts (50 each), 6 Defeat All's, 24 Missions, The only one where your shot down to level 44 and 111 Reward Merits for it all.
It is possible to do the 4 within 12 (say 15 just incase lol) hours with IO's and Jetpacks for speedsters and even the mission teleporter power coupled with recall friend/assemble the team.
To be totally honest, although its possible, to do i dont think it can be done, at least this year. It takes 7 (8 including me) dedicated people and its shocking to expect people to take 24 hours out of real life for this.
Oh and Kendai, it took about 19 hours because i wasn't level 50 at the time (i was using it as a springboard to 50) thats the only reason

I'd like to do this marathon, though i've never done those before.
i have an AR/DEV blaster, fully upgraded in my opinion.
i'm not a vet player (only 8 months), but in a team i try to help all i can, and i'll stick to the end.
kendai recently met me in a early morning sewers trial
defiant only

I got at least half way through the third TF before I started feeling suicidal - up to that point it was massive, crazy fun but then it all became a long, tired blur |

Back on the very 1st ever Double xp weekend, myself and 7 other crazy heroes ran 3 of the 4 Shadow Shard task forces, back to back, in 1 night - a very fun, if not hard night that was.
After speeking with Golden Girl, I want to do it all over again, the 4 sstf's in 1 night - with the original team (or others if some of the original 8 cant make it)!
Couple of things, There is no date set, only a day - Saturday (It is Task Force Saturday after all lol) and a time, between 9am and 11am (GMT/BST) for the start.
So, what you think? Im i crazy or will it be possible and will the original team want to do it again... lol
Post thoughts, comments, "yes i want to do it" stuff and i'll see what happens
*or something like that lol*
