ZamuelNow Posted November 28, 2024 Posted November 28, 2024 Interested in teaming for story missions in Architect Entertainment? 2025 brings you the Mission Architect Sunday Special Using the style of a double feature, the Mission Architect Sunday Special will be a monthly event for story based AE missions consisting of two arcs. Generally, the first will be selected ahead of time by the team leader while the second will be a random pick or chosen by one of the other team members. MASS will be across shards with the first Sunday in the month being on Indomitable and the second Sunday of the month being on Torchbearer. I would like to expand to other shards (Everlasting feels like it would be a good match) but I have only so many characters. However, I'm trying to design this in a way that others can replicate it. The first Indomitable week be January 5, 2025 and the first Torchbearer week will be January 12th, 2025. Both at 2PM EST in RWZ for co-op teaming. 4 AE Arcs: Search for @ZamuelNow Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate [60044] and Dhahabu Kingdom and the Unfathomable Nightmare of Sand [61528] Consideration of Knowledge [65341]
cranebump Posted November 28, 2024 Posted November 28, 2024 I should be able to join, Z. Btw this is a GREAT idea. I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump. For more information on my stories, head to the AE forum sub-heading and look for “Crane’s World.” Support your AE authors! We ARE the new content.
Purple Enchantress Posted November 30, 2024 Posted November 30, 2024 Sounds like a fun idea, though just to mention that you get 5 tokens every couple days to send toons to different shards. So you can use the same toon for running this, just that their name might not be available everywhere.
ZamuelNow Posted December 2, 2024 Author Posted December 2, 2024 I'm starting small so I can better assess any problems that might pop up in the first few runs. There's also the issue of the differences in shard culture that may make this not as feasible on some shards. 1 AE Arcs: Search for @ZamuelNow Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate [60044] and Dhahabu Kingdom and the Unfathomable Nightmare of Sand [61528] Consideration of Knowledge [65341]

sponazgul Posted December 5, 2024 Posted December 5, 2024 This is an outstanding idea, and I hope that everyone has a solid time. I'm a big proponent of people using AE for stories.
ZamuelNow Posted January 3 Author Posted January 3 IN TWO DAYS (*said like a movie announcer*) we'll have the first Mission Architect Sunday Special! I hope someone there has a better computer than me so some screenshots of the events of the arcs can be taken. 1 AE Arcs: Search for @ZamuelNow Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate [60044] and Dhahabu Kingdom and the Unfathomable Nightmare of Sand [61528] Consideration of Knowledge [65341]
ZamuelNow Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 (edited) We just concluded the inaugural Mission Architect Sunday Special! Everyone had fun and just what exciting arcs were run today? First up was Heart of Words Part One by @Valeyard ( @LordRassilon on the forums). I chose this one specifically since the author was the one other person I knew that had public AE teaming and it only seemed right to include it in the first MASS. We followed that up with Welcome to the Arachnos Weather Machine Division! by @Clairvoyance. A tonal difference, an alignment difference, and slightly shorter, this gave us the ability to finish two arcs (plus discussion and brief AFKs) by 4PM to keep things freed up for other events that were starting in the afternoon. Thanks to everyone who showed up! NEXT WEEK... MASS heads to Torchbearer! I know there's a lot of AE authors there so I look forward to seeing how that changes things.

ZamuelNow Posted Tuesday at 01:20 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 01:20 PM While I posted the 'why', another thread here helped me realize I didn't do a good job expressing the 'what' of the arcs we played. So... The first was @Valeyard's Heart of Words Part One (25906). A psionic mystery in Paragon City! The second was @Clairvoyance's Welcome to the Arachnos Weather Machine Division! (60657). Where Nemesis failed, you (might) succeed! And for the preliminary test before the official first MASS: We ran @JiroIto's On The Claw-Tipped Wings of Betrayal (43524). A high level arc in Cimerora! 1 1 AE Arcs: Search for @ZamuelNow Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate [60044] and Dhahabu Kingdom and the Unfathomable Nightmare of Sand [61528] Consideration of Knowledge [65341]

I hope you all enjoyed Part One! Parts two and three were a long time coming. I learned so much from people on the forums. I look forward to your thoughts on the sequels 🙂 Cheers, Valeyard Edited Saturday at 12:37 PM by LordRassilon 1

Police Woman Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago Scenes from the MA team running Bricked Electronics: 2 1
ZamuelNow Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago We just concluded the first Torchbearer edition of the Mission Architect Sunday Special! Everyone had fun and just what exciting arcs were run today? @Zasani's Bricked Electronics (6625). Lowbie tech hijinks! @Metzgermeister's Family Problems (64797). An escalation of crime! With several AE authors in attendance, this event was the start of the Roll Off! Using the /em dice emote, the winner with the highest roll got to choose the second mission of the day. @JiroIto decided to play a newer arc and the author looks promising. And we got another 4 o'clock finish so two arcs looks to be right for time unless the arcs are tiny/huge. We're also smoothing out the kinks in story based teaming. NEXT MONTH... MASS returns to Indomitable for part two of the Heart of Words arc on February 2nd (first Sunday). It will return to Torchbearer on February 9th (second Sunday). On the third Sunday (February 16th), MASS will attempt it's first run on Everlasting. The Mission Architect Sunday Special will be cross server but it may be fairly asymmetrical on where it goes while things get sorted out. 1 1 AE Arcs: Search for @ZamuelNow Dhahabu Kingdom and the Indelible Curse of Hate [60044] and Dhahabu Kingdom and the Unfathomable Nightmare of Sand [61528] Consideration of Knowledge [65341]
