Tanker Tuesday on Victory

[Ronin_Around]

At our most recent Tanker Tuesday on Excelsior, the question was raised as to if the new Victory server would be added into the Tanker Tuesday Tour rotation. Of course we would like to include Victory in our weekly tanky smashing goodness, but there are a few things we need to iron out before hand.

 

Firstly, since we do not want to step on any toes or cause any rifts from the start, is there someone from the private server already running a Tanker Tuesday event on Victory? If so, what is the schedule it is currently run on? (Weekly or monthly? time of day?)

If there is already something in place, whomever is running it, please contact me @Ronin_Around and @Warboss  and we will see how we can bring the existing Victory Tanker Tuesday event into the fold. Or at least get some of our veteran TTers to try to join in if they can.
 

Secondly, if there isn't a TT event in place on Victory, since there are usually only 4 Tuesdays in a month and we already have 5 servers, each Tuesday is already allocated to a server with the Euro server, Reunion, being run on a Saturday.

 

The current rotation is as follows with the Tuesday runs starting at 6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET and runs for approximately 2 hours.
1st Tuesday - Excelsior  
2nd Tuesday - Torchbearer
3rd Tuesday - Everlasting
4th Tuesday - Indomitable
3rd Saturday - Reunion/Europe - 9:30 am PT/12:30 pm ET/6:30 PM CET

 

Adding Victory poses a bit of a problem, as we do not want to start alternating servers on different weeks. This event has been running on the above schedule for over 5 years now and changing that would not be fair to people of each server that enjoy the event but don't bounce around the servers like some of us do. Nor do we want to leave Victory out of this event.

One possible solution would be run Victory on the occasional 5th Tuesday in a month, but that only happens 3 or 4 times a year, which seems a bit light. Those 5th Tuesdays are also used to do other, bigger all Tanker events like Hamidon or Mothership Raids and sometimes iTrials. The 5th Tuesday also rotates through all the servers, so whatever ends up being our solution, Victory will be added to the 5th Tuesday rotation regardless.

 

 

My suggestion for adding Victory into the Tanker Tuesday Tour is to run it on the 1st Saturday of every month during the late morning/early afternoon. 11:00 am PT / 2:00 pm ET.
If this is acceptable to the denizens of Victory, our first event there would be February 1st.

 

 

I welcome any thoughts or suggestions people have about us bringing Tanker Tuesday to Victory and look forward to doing some fine tanking there with you all soon.
