Okay we are looking at Januray 27th at about 5 or 6 PM FA Time. We had another thread going on this but not many people posted. This will be like the last one but in the open. Please sign up here if you can attend, or have a better time, date, or other suggestion.
-
The 27th works out well for me. See you there.
-
Works for me as well :D
-
Cant make that, its too late on a sunday night. Sorry guys
-
I can be there.
-
I'll be there. Time to code up more pills and TB's. :)
-
I'll try to be there, I have a baby shower that I'm supposed to go to..but it's for people that I hardly know.
-
I'd like to have enough confirmed by this coming Monday so we can have it posted in the Events thread. Remember we'll need as many as poosble for this. Last time we had about 3 full teams and we decimated them. I think a minimum of about two teams is what we need to confirm and still be able to hold our own. So far we have one full team confirmed.
Confirmed:
Broin
ManicVelocity
Anamodiel
Bellthazor
Jeyk
Tbone
Possible:
Safirina
-
5 pm FA time I can do for one hour, if that suits you guys then I am available.
-
Mine is a tentative confirm. From what my schedule looks like now, I should have no problems...

Oh, and this might be a problem: http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/posts/list.m?topic_id=36300020030

"Anything goes".
I don't think they'd be too proud of a win that was gained by spawning a bunch of level 55 NPCs to do the work for them.
Then again, we got to put an Accelerator frag to good use at the last VC. :)

-
Nope, sorry :( No MxO 'til feburaryish time for me :S
-
Can't make it on the 27th :(

ill straighten this out now. I dont work 4 the furious angels, i work with them. How i post on this forum is my business.
-
hmm doesn't bother me a bit.. as long as i can understand the meaning behind it im fine. besides im used to text messages so reading what they say is like second nature. I actually commend you for having the patience to atleast write out what you did and posting on the forums... I get sore fingers and a headache from even thinking about doing that. Not to mention it takes loyalty to check the forums on a phone lol. That right there is commitment and love..
-
nva bovered me old boy! wish i could check/ participate from phone!!

Brembo ftw post however you like, wish i could do it from my phone :(
Destyn is just a bit of a grump :D
-
I have to side with Destyn. "Txtspk" makes one appear uneducated and/or lazy.
-
I told you in person broin but your a pain sometimes so I'll post here and tell you I will be around for this...
-
But he's typing from a phone i wouldn't type proper if i was on a phone hell i don't even type proper on msn :P
-
ill straighten this out now. I don't work 4 the furious angels, I work with them. How I post on this forum is my business.
And reading it is our business because we value your input. However, when you type something to the point of inanity like you have been doing, it makes me not want to read your posts because it bugs me.
Keep the txtspk to phone-to-phone and in-game. This is a forum where everyone else is at least able to post full messages, even if they aren't "grammatically correct".
Why can't you just type from a computer?
-
The way i see it he can type from wherever he wants it's upto him, it's not as if his posts are a foreign language

Got a simple solution for you ana. Dont read my posts.

Drama ftl. I'm actually ashamed I participated in it. :\
No reason for this to get out of hand, guys. When all is said and done, this thread isn't the place for this discussion. Let's keep on topic with the upcoming VC, and not run the risk of petty stuff like this spoiling our teamwork. We're all cool here.
Game on!

Manic i agree with you completley. However im afraid that this has gotten out of control.
Nobody in this faction has the right to tell me what i can and can't do. I personally do not care if this puts people off reading my posts. I am not forcing anybody to read them or participate in any of my topics. I did not start this debate but I will make one thing clear, I am not going to change the way i use these forums just because a few people dont like it. Either get use to it or get rid of me.
-
Let me just point out a few things while im here:
FA - Short for Furious Angels
VC -Short for Vector Challenge
How come this is accepted when i can't use the number 2 instead of the word two?
-
gentlemen, lets move on now. I am familiar with how rows start over misunderstandings. Granted, I dont think there is a need to point out errors or the fashion of communication that someone choses (personally any active faction member who is not harming anyone I view as a good thing) that being said this is getting a little out of hand!

You are right to b fair mr nocry.
And my appologies to ana for my snotty reply before. No excuse i know, but its been one of those days.
-
I just want you guys to know that if you ever get lonely, or if you ever need somebody to talk to...
Lithium ManicVelocity Lithium is there for you. :)
-
I hesitate to do this here but I think with some of the remarks made I have no choice.
Alright, I will make myself clear.... and I do mean crystal clear. It doesn't bother me how you type your responses, but if someone else does then you shouldn't have a problem when they point it out or say they dont' understand what your saying.
From re-reading all these posts Brembo you are the one who started this by trying to rub Destyn's nose in it in your post saying
"I may actually b able 2 make this 4 an hour or so if that's any good? Ill translate so destyn can understand. I may actually be able to make this for an hour or so if that's any good?"
Now if you are going to post in leet speak gibberish then do so, but don't be pokin another member with a stick just to poke them with a stick. You knew what was going to happen when you did that. And you were already thinking of your response..
"that wud b spelt words. And as I don't get paid 4 this ill file it under advisement. Any1 else has an issue wiv this then they can leave a message with my secretary at I don't really giv a flying fuck corparation"
and this..
"ill straighten this out now. I don't work 4 the furious angels, I work wit them. How I post on this forum is my business"
Yeah you are totally wrong. When you start insulting other faction members simply to insult/flame/flame bait them. That is not acceptable(.) See that there... That's a PERIOD. That means (.)
"Nobody in this faction has the right to tell me what I can and can't do. I personally do not care if this puts people off reading my posts. I am not forcing anybody to read them or participate in any of my topics. I did not start this debate but I will make one thing clear, I am not going to change the way I use these forums just because a few people don't like it. Either get use to it or get rid of me."
Now all that there is all wrong. I realize you are talking about how you post. But let me make this clear to ALL the members. We DO have a right to tell you what you can and can't do. How you act in game and on these forums is the business of everyone in this faction. Your actions reflect on the faction as a whole. You will maintain a decent code of condcut within the game and on these forums with members of the communtiy (meaning other players not in faction) who are deserving of your respect. Now there are plenty of people out there who aren't deserving and I have no qualms with you rubbing it in their faces. But DO NOT do it to other members. AND DO NOT do it in my GOD DAMN THREAD.
This thread is designed to get members together, to work together as a team, to instill in them that when we work together there is nothing we can't accomplish. I do not expect to have this SHIT go on in one of my threads again (.)
Now I know you came back and said you'd had one of those days. I was pretty sure there had to be something that happened to spark all this. Next time let's try to keep stuff like this to the PM's or if you have a problem with another member then you need to contact the staff through the PM's.
But I seriously dont' want to be hearing that one member has been just badgering another or /ignoring them in game, or some of the other crap I've been hearing. If you have a problem with someone grow a fucking set of nads, get on, TS and talk it out. If you can't resolve it then come to me and by god I will.
And Destyn lighten up.

We need more people, ESPECIALLY if this is going to be outside.

okay this is gonna be short notice but we need a post on the mxo boards about this.. today.
Manic or whoever if you can whip up a photo shop thing and post it here... I'll get it posted when i get in tonight
-
Can't we use the same one from the last event?
Are we even sure we'll be able to pull this off effectively? We only have twelve confirmations which gives us two teams.

Well maybe this time it'll be a bit of a challenege ;)
-
I like an against the odds challenge... and I'm sure they'll be a few Zion here or there that come in to help. After all there are no rules
Our location definatley needs to be within 100 yards of a hardline to prevent the PB boxes being dropped or it needs to be in Intl or Richland/Westview

Currently, we are at the same number that we were at last VC. We should be able to do this...

Count. Me. In.

I'm staying late at the theatre so I can have internet to do this. I haven't figured out how I'm getting a ride back to the house yet, though. lol. Yotogi, you should come to Olney and we can geek out. hehe
-
enjoyed that; just a thought, and for after the capture the flag; why not let them chose a location? all they do is moan... tally ho
-
Another good turn out! I believe there were 14-15 of us at the peak. Once again the reds took the location once for about 5 minutes and we quickly took it back. They gave up quickly and we spent the last 30 minutes or so just killing all the level 100 Agents that were spawning.
I think we're gonna try to do something different for the next challenge...I'm sure the reds are starting to get frustrated...hehe.
-
That was a really great turn out tonight....Great Job Everyone!!!
I don't think letting them choose the location is a good idea. I think giving them a riddle to locate us, and then trying to taking us out is better. It is a challenge...come find us and knock us off if you can, not come knock us off and if you can't give us suggestions on what we can do that will make it easier for you. Just my opion, but it is also valid that if they loose that what can they moan about then.
-
Lots of fun, even though probably 70% of the time was spent watching the reds stand at the top of the towers, wondering when they were going to jump down. :)
-
Yeah, these guys have totally lamed out. Standing around most of the time, maybe making three attempts, then bitching about it BEING TOO HARD and leaving?? If the tables were turned, the last thing I'd want to say is "gosh, Dark Evolution is making it too hard for the entirety of Zion to wipe them out...this is stupid...I give up".
I never really imagined the challenge being too challenging. If anything, I thought the problem would be that the tables would turn and we'd be stuck kamikazing into a million reds over and over again while they laugh about our so called "challenge".
-
We have done well on both occasions. Although i do believe the location has suited us on both occasions. This may not be a great idea, But if we want to stop all this 'bitching' perhaps we should turn the tables. For instance make them hold down a place or building of there choice that we have to take from them. In other words give them the advantage. Im aware this may not work as it may depend on machines and mervs working together but its just a thought. However i feel that people may get bored of our current challenges due to their inability to challenge us.
-
That sounds good Brembo
-
Location isn't the issue. Perhaps it was for the first challenge where indoor lag posed a problem, but this time we were completely out in the open as they requested. I think our only advantage is that we can target any red we see regardless of org, but the Machs have to worry about not attacking the Mervs and vice versa, if they hope to really take us out. Maybe next time we can specify FA vs. Vector Mervs, or FA vs. Vector Machines. But even then, there's nothing we can do to stop the other orgs from showing up.
They had us slightly outnumbered with six healers to our three, and we still held our own for the majority of the time. They're going to complain no matter what, unless we all load Awakened with no buffs and hand them the event on a silver platter.
Their hackers will complain that the event wasn't geared towards hackers.
Their knifers will complain that the event wasn't geared towards knifers.
Their MA's will complain that the event wasn't geared towards MA's.
Their gunmen will complain that the event wasn't geared towards gunmen.
I feel like I'm complaining. :\ If nothing else, these Vector Challenges are a testament to our amazing teamwork. We all know our builds extremely well, and it's pretty-goddamn-fucking-cool to see all of us in action. I get a real charge out of hearing Tbone and Broin giving orders over TS.
Let the reds complain. See how long it takes for them to organize a real takedown. We shouldn't feel obligated to make it easier for them just so they stop bitching. It's up to them to figure out what we're bringing to the table and how they can beat us.
FA VC FTMFW!
-
This may sound foolish, but what would you think of doing an event with Sim loadouts and a couple of healers?
It would be entertaining, and they might stand a chance at victory. Regardless, they'll still bitch and moan.
-
Patcher Daemons? :p
Course, they'd just bring three sim loaders to run that proxy-killer ability ;)
-
Ahh, I forgot about that. :( Either way, we need another Sim train in the near future.
-
you know i am not creative in any way; however up for another of these! maybe settle on a day and time in the near future? tally ho
