FYI, below is the post I cross-posted to the thread on the official forums:
http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?p=4386354&posted=1#post4386354To everybody who's posted that you may not be able to make it ontime - Please pop in when you're able! We need as many people as possible zoning into a Virtue Server Atlas Park and showing support in positive, engaged ways. I'm hoping to be able to continually recruit folks who can lead activities such as "Unity DFB: Devoted Fan Base" runs, maybe even "Save Paragon DiBs: Dedicated Instigators of Benefactory", or even "Architects of saving our Entertainment: Set the World on Fire Farms"... all based out of a Virtue Atlas Park instance. When the Hydra head on the right starts to shoot off its light-beams, I want the group leaders to say "Exit to Atlas Park 11".
Anyway, I'm going to be there instigating Random Acts of Solidarity for hours after things wrap up, for as long as I'm able to stay coherent. Make that conscious. For as long as I'm able to stay conscious. If nobody else volunteers to help out with costume contests every hour on the hour after the "official TonyV-instigated Titan Network-promoted Dress as your Favorite Paragon Staff" one at 6pm eastern... I'll host them myself.
So please, hope other people volunteer, cause my tastes run... Odd.
That said, I will definitely accept donations of INF to @Paula on Virtue, with the guarantee that they would go 100% to costume contest prizes. I'm a waaaay casual player and can only offer so much, so even if you can't help host anything, sponsoring would be welcome! If so, lemme know if you'd like to be announced as a sponsor of the contest I use your gift to help fund.
Thanks a billion to everyone reading this. This means you haven't given up on the game, packed up your bytes and gone off to Farmville. Because of people like you, City of Heroes has become a digital home worth saving. And save it, we will.
