TAG Event (rp/pvp)

Sunday, May 27th
Time is 10am MCT (that's 1pm est, 6pm gmt)
Location is pictured above, greedy informant will appear at start of event.

The mervs are about to get their hands on some good data...data destined to make it's carrier rich. Both machines and zions have a chance of obtaining this, assuming they can get past the merv's (and each other's) defenses. You'll need to find the person at the area pictured above, so you can get enough information to start you after them.

Rules: The carrier (person carrying data) cannot use hardlines or recall, or high jump. He must travel on foot, and/or use subways. If killed, he will /tell the person who took the killing shot, saying 'tag', indicating that that person is now the new carrier. Both the dead carrier and the new carrier MUST /tell me (Demoana), as well, both who they are and who the other is. I will be keeping track to make sure that nobody tries to disrupt this by giving false messages. I'm expecting carriers to change often, but all are subject to the same rules, and the first org who successfully gets their carrier to their destination wins their objective. Just to make it clear, there can only be one carrier at a time. Any carrier that violates these rules will lose the data and it will revert to the previous carrier.

These people can (and should) also tell their own groups/orgs, so that they know who to target or protect. Whether or not you tell the third org there is entirely by individual choice....there would be advantages and disadvantages to either action, so think well on it. Of course if the third org is paying attention (and is in the vicinity) they can find out by keeping an eye on system chat.

None of the subways in Dannah West, Tabor Park, nor Moriah Projects may be used.

Any loadout is fair game except master shadow (except for orion1, who will be there as a moderator, not involved in fighting). However, pills and boosters are not.


MERVS: Different starting instructions apply (although playing rules are the same), see here for details. Registration and proof of ID are necessary to view the topic - talk to mana for information on that.


Edit - I know this is Memorial Day Weekend, come play anyway =P

this looks amazing!!

sounds like a blast

It's just been pointed out to me that you can hyperjump while wearing an invisibility belt, so to head off certain problems, the carrier will NOT be allowed to use the belt. Sneak is acceptable though....if you can get far enough away from everyone to use it.

Ha, this looks fun...

You it!!!! looks fun ill see if i can make it

how long will the event take?  What is this 'data' you speak of? hhmm...if i am not hung over from saturday i'll make it  ;; P

It'll take about an hour maybe a lil longer, but this is something ya don't wanna miss seriously

Yes, probably will be between one and two hours (although I think it will be closer to one).

If you zions and machines that are coming haven't figured out where the starting point is yet, you might want to do that before it begins.

Orion1 will be traveling with the group as MS - not fighting, just to keep an eye on things.

Any carrier that hyperjumps away will lose the data and it will revert to the person who had it last.

Questions/comments?

Is there a set destination that I missed when reading it that the carrier would have to take the data to? Or do you just have to keep a hold of it for said time period and just hideout in sneak or in buildings?

There is a different set destination for each org, but they will be disclosed at the beginning of the event, by the 'greedy informant guy' mentioned in the first post. Which is why you want to know the spot he'll be at

I should be showing my green head about an hour into this, but I may be able to make it for the beginning. We'll see.

Demoana is the only level-headed member of DE. Good luck with your event, I wish I could be there but RL calls.

What does that have to do with this event?

Last minute updates: None of the subways in tabor, moriah projects, or dannah hts are to be used. I'll modify the original post to reflect this, and make sure that the change is well-known in game as well.

Sounds like great fun. I hope to attend.

I will be there.

This looks like it could be a lot of fun...sadly events in the real (family b'day) will keep me from taking part but I hope the Merovs kick butt

Yes Systematic Chaos had it going on, Zunion got our carrier and then slipped out of the merv's grasp while they were busy with his comrade. He then managed to elude pursuit long enough to reach the Baldwin Hts access point to the Machine Stronghold...where they are working on decrypting the data.

He also received $75mil for his troubles, not bad for an hour's work.

Sorry for the length of time, things started out poorly but picked up speed after a bit.

Congrats man

Zunion just walked away with the data like Kaiser Soze after he killed the initial data carrier, Stryk.

We killed Bay thinking he was the new data carrier and the rest is history...

The greatest trick that Zunion every played was making everyone think he didn't exist

Yeah, you might be interested to know that the data was something we pulled from your (Zion's) main computer though. It was fairly recent, don't think anyone on your end had gotten around to analyzing it yet...but you can be sure the machines will.
