Rolling Halloween Event League - 10/3 5ish PM EDT

[Yep, Nope is right]

Ran this tonight 10/2/19, and it seemed to both work well and be appreciated by participants. SO we'll do it again.

 

Starting at approximately 20:00 (8 PM) EST / 00:00 UTC / 02:00 (2 AM) CEST (and I'll let you work out the other conversions from there), I'll periodically advertise in LFG for a rolling Halloween event team. We'll be hitting any Deadly Apocalypse or Zombie Apocalypse we can. Between horrific battles to prevent the end of the world, we'll look for Jack and Eochai and Trick or Treat to pass the time. Come one, come all, stay as long as you like. Tonight we managed to keep it going for around 3 hours, and successfully stopped so many Apocalyptic events and giant monsters I quite lost track.

updating date & time

Many thanks to all the heroes (and a few villains) who joined us in saving Paragon City from Halloween. I probably will not be around much of the weekend of 10/4, but I will try to run a few more rolling leagues like this while the event is live. And, of course, I encourage others to do the same, so my lower level alts can get in on the fun. (grin) People seemed to have a good time, and we fought off lots of zombies, dead apocalyptii, and ran Jack and Eochai off any time we saw them.

Rather than starting a new topic, I'll just update the date in the title. I'll be around this coming Thursday 10/10 and run another ongoing Halloween event league (blue side) starting about 20:00 (8 PM) EST / 00:00 UTC / 02:00 (2 AM) CEST. We'll hit any Deadly Apocalypse, Zombie Apocalypse, Halloween Giant Monsters, Dr Kane's House of Horrors, and/or Trick or Treating as events are available. Will advertise in LFG as regularly as I remember. Come one, come all, and get those Halloween badges.

It's that time of year again. The ghoulies and zombies and assorted critters of the undead variety are once again crawling from their graves to cause problems. So it's time for some rolling Halloween Event Leagues again. As always, I'm just updating the ongoing thread. (yeah, it's a necro, I'm conserving bits, there could be a shortage. Besides, it amuses me to have a necro post for the Halloween event.)

 

I'm available 10/8 starting roughly 21:00 EST / 01:00 UTC / 02:00 CET and will be advertising in LFG and trying to organize Deadly Apocalypse, Zombie Apocalypse, Halloween Giant Monsters, Dr Kane's House of Horrors, and/or Trick or Treating as events are available. For ths first evening I'm going to probably concentrate on Deadly Apocalypse, since there appear to be a lot of new players around who need to be shown the ropes for this one admittedly a bit confusing setup. Will advertise in LFG as regularly as I remember. Come one, come all, and get those Halloween badges. Which reminds me, I need to read up on the new one.

It's that time of year again. And yeah, it's a necro post (as always). I think that's quite apropos for Halloween, and it saves threads. I'll pop onto Reunion this evening starting let's say 5(ish), and see how it goes.

Also, for anyone interested, I'm going to just give a link here to a googledoc which has the macros I use so I don't have to type as much when calling out the banners and all. Nothing fancy, and heavily based on the suggestions on the wiki, since I figure other people may have read those, too.

(Followup) There was a very active league going in PI all afternoon until just now (1837 EDT), so not much call for organizing another. Will hang out the rest of the evening and see if I get any takers.
