Contest for the Agent's tie clips

[Anamodiel]

My fucking flight was cancelled. The flight LEAVES at fucking 5 a fucking m tomorrow morning.

I'll be on tonight. I might as well just stay up the entire night now that I think about it.

Okay by the time tonight's farming is done we should be very close to 100 tie clips... What does that mean.  Well we can do one of two things...

1)
Keep all the tie clips we have farmed so far, and will continue to farm, with one group and have 8 members with certainty get into the event.

2)
Try to get another 100+ tie clips under another group leader and send those in with the hopes that we can get two teams of 8 into the event.

Now splitting the tie clips will be a double edged sword.  We will have a chance to get more FA in the event... But a chance that we split our tie clips so much that no one gets in... I don't know it's a tough call

[Anonymous]

Wow awesome job everyone! I'll help out on Saturday (still in Florida and will be home Sat morning) if that event is still going!

[Strod]

I say, we keep farming with one group.

The reason I say that is because it's a rare thing to get 16 members on now days, with school etc etc. If we keep farming and pick an 8 man team, we can prolly make it close to 200 tie clips for one team. Which I think will better secure our chances of being number 1.

[NoCry]

would rather one team as opposed to no teams. Although tempting for 2 mission teams given we have what we believe to be a high number of clips it would, as broin says, be a nightmare to split our numbers.

The winning captain (broin) could then appeal to Drisena's better nature and get 2 FA teams...

Finally there is the obvious problem of who would participate in any mission - good luck with that one mr broin et al!

[Adad]

Sorrows makes a good point.  Even if we got 2 teams in, what are the odds 16 of us would be on at the right time for the event/mission/whatever?

[Manic Velocity]

I agree with Sorrows.  Keep it to one group.  That way, we have a better chance of winning the event, regardless of which FA members get to participate in this little mission with Ghost.

As long as FA gets the overall kudos, I'm a happy camper.

[Broin]

Okay we will keep it to one team... Though let's do shot for that 200 + mark and I will plead our case to Drisena to have more FA members allowed in.  

AS FOR TONIGHT....

I will not be in game until sometime around 9-10 FA time.  Please don't take this as a don't farm night.  If people are in game and around farm the tie clips designate someone to pick them up and get screenies that they can then send to me.

Well something's up.  The Machines had a meeting at Kalt Chemical this evening, org locked and regular 55 patrols.  We took down as many reds as we could and eventually got in, but they had moved downtown.  We followed but the entire building (govt) was locked down.  I can't be sure, but the Mervs may have been allowed access, and the Cyphs.  The Mervs were definately assisting the Machines to kill Zion, and not just for sport.

We were supposed to have a Zion/EPN meet but it hadn't happened at the time I logged off (midnight GMT).  Sorrows is still in though, hopefully he'll get more than I did.

[Bellthazor]

Did the Zion meeting go down last night, and did anyone get an update on what the Mech's meeting was about?

[Anonymous]

Some of the other factions might have, we had representation from all the main players: ML, PdS, Insurgence etc

[Broin]

Well Fri, Sat, and Sun. were a bust for this... I wasn't able to get back very early Fri night, but was on Sat. and Sun. afternoon but not enough people were on to farm.  I guess you guys were being night owls and came on of a evening which didn't work out for me.

Let's try to finish this up strong tonight and tomorrow.  I was looking at the screenshots and when we had a full team + a few extra we were dropping them in 3 min and under...

See you all tonight

[Ash]

I'll be available after 9pm EST.

[Strod]

See ya there.

[Manic Velocity]

I won't be available, I'm afraid.   My internet connection is getting flakier by the day, and I've just unplugged the cable modem and given up.  Last night it dropped three times in the span of 10 minutes.  I'm having a technician come out on Tuesday morning.
