Dec. 10th – Prestige Grant and Debt Wipe!

From the CoH forums:

Quote from: LighthouseAs was included in the recent communication, A New Age, announcing the acquisition of the City of Heroes franchise from Cryptic Studios by NCsoft, there is an upcoming character Debt Wipe and Supergroup Prestige Grant.

When: December 10th, 2007

Prestige Grant
Supergroups will receive an additional 20,000 Prestige per Supergroup member on Dec. 10th! This means SGs could acquire up to 3 million Prestige based upon their Supergroup membership roster! This is a one time grant, based strictly on the number of people in the Supergroup at the time the grant is done.

Debt Wipe
It's time to get crazy! We will be clearing out any accrued debt that characters have on Dec. 10th! So, get out and find some spectacular ways to take a faceplant! Organize some chaos events and generally have some fun, knowing that any debt you have will disappear on Dec. 10th!

With that in mind, I have several characters on various servers which are SG-less and I'd be willing to put them in any SG's that have openings. (If for no other reason than to help inflate the prestige grant.)

We should fill as many of the community's SG's as we can, as full as we can, and (at least) temporarily suspend any restrictions on alts if need be.

I have 3 heroes and 1 villain on Freedom that I could place. Got more but some of those may wind up being deleted eventually. A bunch of heroes on Virtue, Guardian, and Liberty. I have some villains on Triumph and Pinnacle. I have a couple of character slots left on Freedom that could be used to fill rosters.

Also, I have a fully open roster for my speedster group on Freedom (Freedom Overdrive). Any speedsters or wanna-be speedsters on Freedom are welcome. Send me a global tell @BlueBard.

Any bets on whether Issue 11 will hit before, on, or after December 10th?

December 9th sounds like the perfect day to run a Sewer Trial marathon.

Heh, sounds like fun... but I won't have any characters at that level by then.

They've all-but-guaranteed that I11 will hit before the prestige grant and debt wipe- therefore, before December 10th. Note that I11 includes a doubling of the number of characters who can be in a SG- from 75 to 150! In fact, the estimate of the maximum presitge a group could gain from this in the original post assumes a maximum of 150, not 75, members.

I'd love to fill up the Freaky-Deakies villain SG on Virtue. That's where I'm creating a dual blades/willpower brute, and playing some other villains. I've created filler characters on my accounts in preparation, but more would be very welcome. To get to the point where a base can handle four teleporters, it needs the energy/control upgrades, which will run about 650K prestige. :blink: The VG has 23 members now, from TPE, Kommando and myself. More toons, even fillers that are deleted after the bonus, would be very much welcomed and appreciated. So think about gettin' Freaky on Virtue, y'all!

I have slots open on Virtue... but don't want to dedicate more than one or two to villains. On other servers besides Freedom and Virtue I can be more flexible.

You know, we should totally organize this. I mean, designate a day (or two, or three) and time when anyone with S/VG invite rights logs on and is available to issue invites. That way nobody has to drop what they're doing to otherwise issue invites and anyone wanting to join a group can do it quickly without a lot of hit and miss.

Invite permissions should probably be expanded to more members in various SG's also, so that it's easier to find someone online.

I've got unused slots on every server except Virtue (since I already used those to pad out my own villain group :ph34r: ). So if anyone needs help filling out their ranks, let me know.
