The team that accomplishes their kill count first wins.

What day was this on?

Fixt

Sounds like fun. I can't promise I'll be there, but I will try!

I'd love to be there; sounds like some great, original fun!  Unfortunately, I work that day :(  I'll have to catch the next one.  Grown-upping sucks!

Starting 9am, but 9am of which time zone? CET? PST? WTF? :-)

Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8)

I hopefully will be there.

That's nice :-)

If I got it right, central europe is 9 hours ahead PST, so 6pm till midnight on saturday, so I'm online anyway...

I really want to go to this, as I have tons of questions on builds, ships, weapons, etc. but sadly just found out I have to work during this. Not too thrilled but it is what it is.

Go ahead and post your questions, and we'll try and get them answered for you.

Dana if you have specific questions i will try to answer them the best i can for you.

Also sorry i dropped out early of the event my internet died :(

Seemed like a lot of us kept getting the boot yesterday. It definitely made things more complicated. Lots of fun regardless, and I think my favorite was the "Red Rover" part, even though there didn't seem to be much reaction time once people got into range. Maybe we shouldn't have been right on top of the gateways, or spread out a bit more? It's a fun idea, but I think maybe the mechanics need to be tweaked a bit. :)
