The warrior one will be streamed hopefully on http://www.twitch.tv/tehmaker
If we can get enough Engineers I can probably convince Ostrich Eggs to stream,
Now all we need is a few more of each.

Flow, be sure to mark them as EU deathdealers in BoC. Though to be honest they don’t have to join the guild for this event, and you can use our Mumble for both teams, just use any one of the channels :P.

I may be playing another class since we have so many Necro’s for this event, but just a reminder for all NA players the event time:

Tonight Thursday April 25th 5:30pm PST to 8:30pm PST

Fantastic sign ups here! We are excited about everyone signing up

Tonight Thursday April 25th at 5:30pm PST to 8:30pm PST

I will be pming the participants our mumble information so they can get on and use it. We have plenty of spots, and are pumped by the responses so far. We will try to do a general get together for about 10 minutes before hand to give everyone a clear idea as to what we are doing, and see about getting a group Picture of everyone who is taking part in the event ahead of time.

There is still time to sign up!

ARG! I can’t make this time slot this particular Thursday, but I really am interested in playing with you guys. Need more events!

I am working with Andele on doing more Dungeons, Fractals, and so on, but it take a lot of coordination.

We will try and host one every two weeks, and hopefully in the future we can have a Weekend event (though I would be unable to attend)

Profession Specific Tournament Event Sign Ups
Elementalist – 3
Engineer – 3
Guardian – 3
Mesmer – 4 (5)

5 hours until this awesome Event don’t miss out!

Next time we hope to get a few more players so we can do it without all the headaches.

The goal was to have fun, and enjoy the time running around. As far as I am aware, Everyone had fun!

If anyone has videos of the event please pm me so we can work on getting all the videos collected and put up on the SOACGaming website.

It was a ton of fun! Hopefully next time round we will have a CA so we can do full class vs. full so we have a single match from multi-team PoV. Looking forward to the next event.

It was fun even with the losses, but we did pretty good overall on the necro team. It was never a shutout, scores were always close

That was definitely the best we’ve done so far. Those losses were mainly to coordinated mid level teams (20s-30s) and at least one of our guys had never done this before. I’ll get the videos out to Bas, along with the audio recording.

Edit: as a side note the video will also serve as a perfect way for everyone to tell me how bad minions are and how bad I am at PvP. Especially since I had a friend sitting next to me the entire time half-coaching me.

Meh, I couldn’t make it this time. Hopefully this won’t be the last one we do. Got held up at work and couldn’t get home on time to start this with you guys last night.

Ha! This is far from the last time we’ll be doing this :P

Good! I really enjoy doing these.
