PS Saturdays 8/31 - Well it looks about that time... - CaffeinePowered - 08-26-2013

...for some kind of contest. Numbers have been really sketchy of late and since I tend to be an abysmal failure at recruiting people in game (or they're too lazy to alt-tab and install a third-party chat program), its time to take a step back and drum up some more people regularly playing within the community (which hopefully leads to more people through in game recruiting as well).

We've been running pretty tight knit infantry and vehicle squads, but its really difficult to be effective when we have less than 6 or so people. When we have been rolling 10+ all in mumble we steam roll groups upwards of twice our size. Especially considering a lot of times in the past we've been really scatter brained Ive started calling out people for breaking with the group and doing their own thing.

For your part, its probably best to log in sometime this week to patch up, if its been a while you'll probably have to download several gigs of updates.


The Rules:
- You must be on for a total of at least 2 hours, no popping in and out to be counted
- Must be on mumble, and check in with me (so I can note that you were there)
- Reply here in the thread stating that you will be there (or will try)

The Prize: $15 Station Cash Card

Starting Time: 7pm CST
Ending Time: ??? (Usually around 11-12pm CST)


If any people who are regulars would like to opt out, it would be very nice of you to defer to someone who doesn't already have all of the cert gain / membership / money to spend. Just PM me so I know not to include you in the drawing.

I may make an appearance, but since I'll be in the process of moving & my girlfriend's family is going to be in town, I'm not sure when or for how long I'll be there. I'll poke my friend pakman (PS2 username p4kman) to get him to join you all, he's become a member of the Church of Silenced V6-7 + 2 blocks of C4, so I think he'll enjoy running with us.

I WILL be there, gotta shake off the dust to prep for Hossin.

If I am there at all it will be for the full time, but this is first weekend back at school so something might come up.

Aww yiss, giftcard lotto.




Re: PS Saturdays 8/31 - Well it looks about that time... - Mission Difficult - 08-26-2013

I will most likely be there. I'll forfeit the lotto though.

To draw more people in the future, may I recommend a charity event stream? (Contact SOE to get them involved somehow).

Eh...we'd need to be bigger to do that....but also we have another resource, all of you (presumably) have friends, invite them out to come play with us

I'm going to try and be there. (Labor day weekend plans still up in the air) But if i am I will forefit the card.

[/quote]It's hard to convince people to play a game they've never heard of, can't figure out, and can't even play due to the crashes...

But I'll invite my one friend who does play this saturday.

I don't have any labor day plans actually, but most of my friends who would enjoy being a techno upgraded human are already out at Burning Man.

I've invited all that I can to come join when possible, but we don't have to be that big to do a charity event. Get in contact with a charity company, tell them you're interested in doing it.. Get in contact with the devs in combination with the charity group. Have some multiple streamers, and spam the hell out of "Please donate" bullshit.

I'll try to show up.


Re: PS Saturdays 8/31 - Well it looks about that time... - [fr31ns]Karrde - 08-27-2013

I'll likely be there.  I love me some planetside.

If my PC is set up after my move, I'll try. Oh god I'll be on PST then too.
