PvP Event Committee UPRISING

Well as many of you know, the PvPEC is finally kicking off the first event (of three) of the summer Good versus Evil event. I will be available on tonight @ 7 pm PST in Pocket D to answer questions about the event, the formats involved, and how to get on test so you can show up to claim your yellow titles or hopefully win a prize!

A recap of the events the weekend of June 1-3 are as follows:
PLEASE NOTE THEY ARE ALL ON THE TEST SERVER

Showcase 8x8 Event
Some of the top PvP teams we have on CoX will be showcasing their talents in the Pocket D arena so we encourage you to come down, observe the matches and check out their mad skills. We have also opened it up to those stout-hearted enough to want to try their mettle against them!

Please visit me in Pocket D (main dance floor) to talk more about Uprising or the PvPEC! Thanks!

I will be attending most of the events on Test this weekend. I will also be giving Ahne Toreph a spin in the Lethal Lottery Saturday night. I will be helping run the Lethal Lottery at noon as well and if you wanted a more casual event, this one is the one to attend. I have a few people on board to join me (like Deep, Violet, and Zero perhaps) so hopefully the rest of ya'll will come out and support the event

Vixens' First Raid

The Vixens of Paragon just held there first raid with the Lords of Olympus 5/19 @ 5pm pst. It was a great time. We kept the sides even as Chica put her lvl50 in the Lords sg to it would be 3vs3. But they had 3 50s while my alt, Sultry vxn (lvl 25) and Ice Chill (lvl 34) were the lowbies. At least we had Nurse vxn as the capable lvl 50 Defender to keep us buffed & healed. Soon after Loraxe (lvl50) joined us and we were set. All though we didn't take out any of the anchors (& boy we were close!) it was still a decent run. We had trouble with disconnects throughout the raid. Also had a problem with actually trying to join the raid. It seems that if you were inside the base, you would not receive a prompt for the raid until you exited. If you were outside the base, you would need to enter to receive the raid join prompt. All in all it was a fun evening.
