Themed TF/SF Saturdays

[TygerDarkstorm]

I totally didn't think about it, but does Sutter require any sort of special unlock (e.g., like Mortimer Kal)? I want to check so I can make sure I make time to unlock it if needed.

[Purple Enchantress]

You don't need any kind of unlock for Sutter. Just be the right level.

As of right now, I don't have any plans for this weekend, I can do the signup and lead. 🙂

I will let others choose their color before picking mine. 🙂

 

Signups for 24 May - “Lite Brite” - The Sky is Falling (Admiral Sutter, Level 20-40) - Spectrum Body type (other costume elements are fine, but the spectral body should be visible). Everyone picks a different color. Any AT/powers.

• @TygerDarkstorm - TBD based on other's picks
• @Burnt Umber - Backstreet Justice - STJ/Willpower Scrapper; Color: Dark/Royal Blue (I totally read the name as a Backstreet Boy lol)

 

Hi @TygerDarkstorm, I'd like to register my Rad/Staff Tank Nuclear Fuel Rod for this, he'll come with an unhealthy greenish-yellow spectrum colour.

We only have 3 sign ups--is this worth doing? We seem to be struggling for consistent sign ups lately

I'm not sure; there's a few AVs in the last mission so it might be a struggle.  We could also try collecting a few from LFG/Broadcast?  Though perhaps it's a quite weekend for us in the U.S. since it's Memorial Day weekend?  Otherwise, I'm fine with putting a pin in this and doing it another time.

[Midnyte]

For the Sutter today I'll bring Candy Martini - War Mace/Bio Brute in candy pink!

 

edit: I see now a discussion about postponing this theme for a more lively week. Either way, I'll be in-game doing more anniversary badge collecting, so will await the decision!

I should be around, Weekends are either over scheduled or I'm sleeping in past the theme team start time. But yes holiday weekends can be a drain.

I'll run it, but I'll quick set up a debuffer/support toon for the theme and we can pick up PuGs hopefully

Sutter TF - Spectrum costumes

Saturday, May 24, 2025

 

Today got off to a rocky start, but Jax was able to join at the last minute, and then we picked up two more before we launched, which led to a highly successful Sutter run!

 

 

 

Nova Khrome, one of our LFG recruits, not in theme but thought it was a cool costume worth showing. I didn't catch his global name.

 

 

Serpent Coils went between missions to put on a spectrum face. 😄

Sorry for being late this morning and messing up the TF difficulty settings--I was moving slow getting to my computer and deciding to change to bring debuffs/support. Thank you Jax for running Sutter today. Our two PuGs were great additions and we had a smooth Sutter that was a lot of fun. 🙂

 

Posting next week's theme just so folks can see it easier and prep for it while Frau is busy:

31 May - “Mutate This!” - The Kheldian War (Moonfire, Level 23-28) - Professional-Grade Gene Alterations with Radiation/Radioactive, Bio/Nature, Poison powersets; appropriate costumes.

[Burnt Umber]

As I try to decide what alt. to bring, is the theme just the powersets, or is there a costume too?

It says appropriate costume on it. I gave my plant/poison toon for this a plague doctor outfit as it seemed fitting.

[Burnt Umber]

Fair enough! I was try to decide how to much I should alter my Rad./Bio. Brute's look; he looks a bit like an infected nuclear wasteland denizen so hopefully that'll do it.

[TygerDarkstorm]

I feel like that fits.

[Midnyte]

Oh hell, I love a fun Moonfire with you guys, but I'm scheduled to work this Saturday. 😭 See you for the next one!

I may have been a little vague there.  "Appropriate costumes" was meant to refer to "Professional-Grade", so something akin to the medical or biological professions.  Even a business suit or a "field research" costume would be appropriate.

 

Signups for 31 May - “Mutate This!” - The Kheldian War (Moonfire, Level 23-28) - Professional-Grade Gene Alterations with Radiation/Radioactive, Bio/Nature, Poison powersets; appropriate costumes.

1. @FrauleinMental Cranberry Doctor - Rad/Rad Corruptor
2. @Midnyte Gamma Dancer - Staff/Rad Brute
3. @TygerDarkstorm Botanical Pathogen - Plant/Poison Controller
4. @Burnt Umber Marcor - Rad/Bio Brute
5. @Bananiac Lethal Leaves - Rad/Nature Corruptor

Well guess what, I looked at the schedule wrong last night and I am free this Saturday! It's the following Saturday I have to work, June 7, so I'll miss the shapeshifter theme. But for the Moonfire, I have so many choices for this theme, it's tough to choose! Put me down for Gamma Dancer - Staff/Rad Brute

First I want to say how much I appreciate you making the monthly themes for us, Fraulein. In the back of my mind I always picture Trixie coming back at some point, but I think she's immersed in other games now and that may not happen. So you're doing a great thing for Theme Team!

 

Second, I'll miss most of June 😞 because of work on the 7th, and then I'll be out of town during both following weekends. I'll be home for the 28th but won't know the work schedule until later. Looks like some juicy stuff you've got planned!

Does a plague doctor costume work? If not, I'll tweak my toon's costume.

I will be there on Botanical Pathogen - Plant/Poison Controller.

Sounds good!  Sure, plague doctor was a medical professional of the time!

Thanks for the vote of confidence!  I miss Trixie leading us, but I'm glad to hear she's doing better.

Hi @FrauleinMental, I plan to bring Lethal Leaves (Rad / Nature Corruptor) for this. She is a kinda "freelance" mutagenist 😎

 

EDIT: Looks like I won't be able to make it after all this saturday. Got family action scheduled now. Good hunting anyways, would have loved to go this theme, but hope you can get a good tema together agian. Looking forward to the pics.
