Haaaai~ 

After some hundreds of emails, I've come to the conclusion that I really won't get any summer job like this. If any of you needs a slave physics major who can code and do math, I'm here! 

So our first week of power hours went by and we've encountered a few problems:

1) Douchebags refusing to play along with the theme just for a single ****ing hour. (cough Badass cough).

2) Not enough people.

So 1) was to be expected. There's very little we can do except maybe TKing unless if room-based MM miraculously appears. But more importantly, we need more people! We did manage to get a few 6v6/7v7s full of T8's (minus a few idiots here and there) and they turned out to be really fun, so there is still hope! I especially liked the energy and friendliness of everyone who participated~

So so so let's get started for this week!

Theme: To be discussed

Post suggestions of themes below! If you like someone else's suggestion, say that too! We'll pick the most popular one~ Remember, keep it newbie friendly if possible. We won't do any class-restricted theme this week though.

[EDIT: Forget the themes. Thanks to the bots, it will be too hard to implement any meaningful theme.]

Rule: Strictly no platoon

Time: Saturday PDT 15:00. countdown  

So this is going to be the hot topic. Splitting the time slots into 2 blocks for our first edition wasn't a great idea. It turned out that we went half/half on each block and didn't get enough people for a large battle in either. Once we'll get enough people for 100% large battles during 1 time block, we'll start adding more power hours. Large battle + Theme are our selling points! So try to keep your schedule open this week and post your free time below! (Post them in PST if you can, or state your timezone otherwise) We'll restrict it from FRIDAY PST to SUNDAY JST though.

General communication channel: So one of our minor problems was also that we didn't really sync and search at the same time. Easiest way to fix that is just to set up a general channel for everyone. I'll look into the possibility of either using TS or Discord. I realize that some of you don't like using voice communication either so we could:

1) All join a temporary fleet just for the power hour, or

2) All add me (Shin) to your friendlist so that you'll know if a game is ongoing

Post whichever suggestion you like best~

That's all for this 2nd edition folks~ A big shout-out to everyone who participated last week, a big fuck you to everyone who decided to sulk and run on their T11's. Remember to spread the word! We need more people!!!
