Howdy ya'll! ...get it?... cause... cause snake Gulch...cowboy robots... ( ._.)

So this week went well and I have been told there will likely be some updates to the event early next week so I figured I would get the ball rolling for next week's testing!

I'd like to thank everyone who showed up this week, we found out a lot of important stuff about the event and got some good suggestions going. I appreciate everyone being very patient when things didn't go quite so smoothly...like when a certain someone completely broke the entire event for thirty minutes ^_^

This week's times were good, so we'll use the same ones again!

NOTE: If no updates to the event are uploaded by Wednesday then we won't bother with that day. I'll make an announcement if Wednesday is to be cancelled.

Day: Wednesday February 15th
Time: 1pm EST

Day: Wednesday February 15th
Time: 9pm EST

Day: Saturday, February 18th
Time: 3pm EST

NOTE: Another time for Saturday added in the hopes of getting a larger group! Since all the robots are now active we will actually need more people.
Day: Saturday, February 18th
Time: 6pm EST

Day: Saturday, February 18th
Time: 9pm EST

Again I just want to explain that the reason for so many times and days is that I want to get as many people in there as possible, from both the us and the eu side, since more people = better feedback!

    Dang, I'm busy at all of those times, though maybe I can do a bit of Wednesday night.
    Thanks for organizing, though.

    I just hope that we get more people.

    If they get the robots guarding the towers working we'll need a lot more than we have gotten so far.

    Hoping for bigger turnout this week :)

    I suspect 1 big test, timed so that people in the US and EU can both attend, will get a bigger group than 4 tests per week. I would suggest 11pm UTC on a Saturday.

    Added 6pm EST ( 11pm UTC) on Saturday. Since I have all day Saturday to poke at this stuff anyway I'm totally willing to do three times! If it yields results I'll keep it for future testing schedules. Thank you for the suggestion aiqa.

    The latest patch incorporates many of our suggested changes, and fixes some bugs.
    I'm very excited, and I will try my darndest to stay up late Wednesday night to test.

    Agreed. I'm looking forward to testing out the recent changes as well. I hope we get a larger group this time, especially for the Saturday test times.

    Should be able to make a couple of this Saturday's tests. I'll bring a couple of non-healer support type toons.

    I couldn't make that one, but the last test Saturday evening had a decent turnout.

    I just wish we could get enough people for one or two honest attempts... Enough people to man the towers *AND* give the Liberator an honest fight without Dev shenanigans being used to drop Liberator's health and/or keep a tower turned off.

    Eh, I was there for the 3:00 PM one on Saturday. I think at most there were 8 other players there. Got to see a few mechanics. Probably need a dev to sponsor a couple single time per day runs if they need/want more serious feedback at this point.

    Eh, I think 3pm was just a bad time. The one before it had some people show up, as did the one after it. From what i heard from the 1 person who showed up at 3pm they were the only one there, you sure you got your times right jaaz?

    Yeah, I was the only one there at the 1500 test.

    Hung around for a while to check something out and then left.

    One cycle to bring up the Liberator then I had to wait for the mission to fail and reset, so 22 minutes plus whatever time it took me to take out 50 of the robots and shut down 10 transmitters.

    No one else was there.

    Had people show for the earlier test, and a lot of people at the later test, but I was all alone during that middle test time.
