Ooooh, so this is what you had up your sleeve... Cool!!!

Why, I think my purple-kini still has Hami goo on it.

Just a bump to remind folks that this is happening today!   :)

Turns out we maxed the zone in Founders Fall for the Summer Block Party, and are spawning extra instances.  Any way to up the limit for Founders?

I just set the channel for Founders to unlimited. Anyone who is in Founders Falls 2 can get to the main zone by zoning elsewhere, then back to Founders.

Thank you so much, Codewalker.  There is much rejoicing!!

And that's a wrap for the Summer Block Party!  Contest results are listed up top in the Original Post.

Unfortunately due to technical issues on my end (my gaming laptop is at the end of it's usable lifetime... got 6 years out of it) I will not have attendance figures or screenshots for this event.  I'll also be off of Paragon Chat for a couple of weeks for the same reason.

I'll try posting a few screenshots from the event here:
Rocking out with DJ Phoenix on the Founders Fall Univ. Dock.

Ouch. i wish i could help, but everything i work with is for desktop systems, so i have no compatible components.
Still, i did get to stop by the party for about 5 minutes before i had to head off to friend's party in RL, and i appreciate all the people keeping the spirit of CoH burning. i always had fun with the various summer beach parties when the servers were still up, but most of those happened around in Talos so that we could have more in the way of waterfalls and cliff diving. Also CoT fights.

I was there...great place to hold a party. 8)

I hope we keep on choosing new sites.

[Lycantropus]

I'd love to show up, but Saturdays suck for me, as my house is filled with tabletop gamers.

On the other hand, I'm happy they're there, and they are good friends, but still... Saturdays aren't good for me. *sigh*

Lyc~

[Tahquitz]

With a regular group for roleplaying night, it's not likely that we'll be throwing something on the same week your group might have to cancel.  I understand. 

With full-time working schedules, Saturday works the best for my team to throw events like these.  Good news: The next COH Anniversary is on a Friday.  Hopefully that works better for you!
