Okay, this needs to get a bit more organized.
We need to know the numbers in advance, or at least min/max numbers.
So, people, I know it's hard and silly to think about it one week in advance, but please post at least 2,3 days before the event.
You should post here if you are able to show up and who are you fighting for.
So, for example, mine would look like this :
-I can.
-I have both Patriot and a Dagger, so I'll be balancing things out.
Or we should make another thread just for signing up, it's kinda hard to track it here with everyone writing anything about the event.
Most of you have only Patriot or Dagger, so, we need to know this to balance things out.
Also, because it's a weekend, Sunday 21 GMT, it's kinda hard to log on.
So, you need to show up a bit earlier, say 30 minutes earlier for example.
And once we have the final numbers, 30 minutes earlier, we can balance things out.
Zapp and Xoria, good luck with that story.:)

Zapp, My skype has been on the official list for a few weeks now:rolleyes:, but now it's in my siggy too. I agree to redo the event. I say we keep all the event discussion here, and use the thread in the Event sub-forum for signups from independents (non LH and non LPI). I would like to see a RP storyline in the Story sub-forum that would be open to any in character posts from any participants, and the first post of all of these threads linking to the other ones.
Stoat, these events have encouraged me to do more with our Daggers than we were doing, but it will largely be on a roleplay focused basis than a PvP one, for obvious reasons. Nevertheless, whenever you see an LH with the "~" sign at the end of the name, that is one of our "RP" permanent Daggers, and you are welcome to bring out the Piranha to come get us. Just be sure to include plenty of verbal interaction first, because the storyline is the main point of what we will be doing with them. (Although if we can get enough Daggers together we will try to do some actual piracy too).

OK, sign-ups are on the main event thread. I think we should all register to be able to fight, and I've kept on saying people should post here if they intend to! Anyways, sent you the Skype-request Xoria, and I concur that the story should be open to all, though they should have to show us what they got, so we can know that it doesn't contradict anything else we may/may not be preparing.
I'm glad I will be fighting in that ice field again.
Oh, and, can we move a fight 2k off the Trade Lanes next time?
Trains hitting me in a cockpit, while going 1000 m/s speed, is just annoying.
Circe died that way:)

Sunday March 9 will be LPI vs Xeno, right?
LH is trying to schedule an event with BPA for that day around the LH / LPI event, but I just realized that Zapp's original "schedule" had the third event not involving the Lane Hackers. If that is still the case, it will simplify things for our scheduling, and give those crazy Xeno a chance to have some fun too.

Would it be better for the Xenos to launch an attack on Detroit? Or stick with the thing in Colorado? Maybe having something in NY isn't such a good idea, I think....
I haev a rough idea for the Xeno/LPI fight, and here it goes:
The LPI have managed to leak details of a supposed arms shipment to Pueblo, they hope to catch at least one Xeno in orderto question thme about future Xeno operations. The leaked details suggest that the trade lanes will be heavily secured and thusly impractical for the Xeno's to use.
The Xeno's approach Pueblo through the Silverton field and are ambushed by the LPI on route. ( The route will be a direct line from Ouray to Pueblo). A brief spell of banter between the talk happy Xeno's ( I know a fair few of the Serpentis wish to be present for this) and the rather talkative LPI ensues, before the fighting starts.
A play in one part complete with assorted cast of rocks, NPCs, explosions, insults and shennanigans.
Anyone against this

Low Lv Xenos attacking Pueblo can be a problem, because if the LPI are distracted (say by eating donuts) and don't manage to intercept us before we get too close to Pueblo we have the huge problem of NPC dreads kicking around. I think they range out up to 1-2K from the station due to their slow turning circle. But the story sounds very good, and apart from the NPCs I have no objections. Count on Fanatic's Starblazer to be there.
I'll nerf it to class 3 shields and class 4 guns. No armour upgeade, probably no mines either, I don't use em much.
