Eagling Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Oh, yeah, it's back. ...Do we eliminate primaries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OscarDivine Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 this was easily one of my favorite events! :-D Let's also do another strike night one of these days. ;-) those are also tons of funs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlavivsAetivs Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Naw, you can use primaries. Also, moved to February 24th so not to conflict with Drako's event. ~ Eudoxia Edited February 1, 2017 by FlavivsAetivs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagling Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Nice. Are there any ships that run pods+ammo refill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nasja Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Nice. Are there any ships that run pods+ammo refill? No but the yellow rings in TDM do refill the ammo. Also, since in every event there are people who don't participate but are in the matches, there are probably bombers and / or T3 strikes there to refill ammo. Edit: I just checked to make sure, the only ships that can equip pods are: T1 Scout T2 Scout Edited February 1, 2017 by Nasja adding content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatRacer Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Edit: I just checked to make sure, the only ships that can equip pods are: T1 Scout T2 Scout Then you might as well just call it "Scout February" (with the T3's being the "reloaders" by dropping repair/refill drones, which could make for some fun strategizing/synergy).

FlavivsAetivs Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 That might be a good idea, T3's as reloaders. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lendul Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) That might be a good idea, T3's as reloaders. ~ Eudoxia That is what the yellow power up in TDM and suicide in Dom are for. Both are quicker at refilling also. Edited February 2, 2017 by Lendul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlavivsAetivs Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Zuck has contributed the option of a firehauler, demolisher, or mailoc GSF cartel market ship for the grand prize. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlavivsAetivs Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Just a reminder that Rocket Pods night is THIS FRIDAY!!! I've decided to disallow the T3 scout to encourage people to use the Weapon Overcharges for reloading their rocket pods, which is far more strategic and competitive. However if it proves to be a problem during the event, I'm not gonna rail on someone for running a T3 scout for reloads. ~ Eudoxia Edited February 20, 2017 by FlavivsAetivs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will no longer be in attendance. :-/ This makes me sad as pod builds are all I play no in my T2 Scout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlavivsAetivs Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Just a head's up, I will have to leave from 2:45-4:00 EST but will be back. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlavivsAetivs Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 We've had about 20 participants in the first session, next session starts up at 8 PM EST. See ya then! I've put an addendum on the rules due to participation issues as well: anyone who (knowingly) flies Bomber or Gunship is disqualified from the prize. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceChuckle Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I would like to offer a big thanks and shoutout to Oscarette, Trymage, Zuck, Michi, Vinteren and all other participants on JC tonight. Thanks for setting this up Eudoxia, people were having fun, nodes were flipping, Kenny Loggins was blaring and the Hutts probably saw their fair share of the cartel bottom line. *cough* I hope to do it again.

FlavivsAetivs Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 We had a total of 69 participants. Thanks to everyone who showed up! The winner of the Grand Prize was Binthurmung! The winner of the Imp Side Prize was Probe Jorass, and the Pub Side Prize went to Gatt! I have some minor GSF cosmetic items for those who participated as well, feel free to bother me in-game if you want one. Otherwise I'll randomly give them out. ~ Eudoxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaximilianPower Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Congratulations Binth! Besides the load of creds, you've also won your choice of crappy cartel ship: firehauler, mailoc, or demolisher. Give me your selection and I'll get it to you ASAP. The event was entertaining. Sometimes it was a bit frustrating facing a sea of bomber poop and gunships, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't incredibly satisfying to actually win against bombers/GS (which did happen a couple of times).
