Dear all Founders,

I think that as a Founder we all appreciate PGI's change to raise Founders mechs from 25% to 30% additional CBills earnings. This brings us to par with released Hero mechs which has been a bit of a sore point in the past.

As a gesture of my appreciation to PGI I am going to commit myself to playing a minimum of 30 matches using my Founders mechs this weekend. As usual I will also be displaying my Founders Tag.


Sarah's Jenner also most welcomed for this Event.


If you are looking at dropping in Founders Groups Helmer and Blacke have kindly offered the use of their TS servers. Details are as follows and arrangements will be made for specific rooms for this event.

TS Servers for Founders Event - look within for appropriately named Foyer and Droprooms.


Comstar Relay North America (Comstar NA)
Available Slots: 512 Man TS3 server
Server Address: na1.mech-connect.net
Password: WordofBlake


Comstar Relay Europe (Comstar EU)
Available Slots: 512 Man TS3 server
Address: eu1.mech-connect.net
Password: hG5!4Dg*


Black Foxes TeamSpeak Server (Kuritan flavour but all are welcome):
Available Slots: 50 Man TS3 server
Address: Black-Foxes.enjinvoice.com
Password: no password required.



Let's show the player base the force of the Founders mechs and our skills that we have produced over these last few years of playing!

There is no reward offered or anything gained (apart from some fun and showing) but with recent announcements I know that I am happy with what I am getting over the next month or so.

I would be very happy to see some screenshots of match player boards (beginning or results) showing a full line up of Founders Tags and mechs posted here on this topic once we are underway :)

Anniversary Weekend
To mark this anniversary weekend PGI is offering Double XP, Double XP conversion, and Mechbays for 50% off. Also during this Anniversary weekend, when you win 1 match you will earn a Cupcake Cockpit item.


So, is anyone else willing to make a pledge to this?

Although a founder, I do not have a founder's mech (why oh why couldn't they have had a founder Dragon?). But, I will show my support as well and make sure which ever ride I'm in my Founder's mug is proudly displayed.

Might be fun to drop in my Founders Atlas, I have been able to go head to head with Dire Wolves with my build and that was before the heat nerfs on Clan lasers. I'm flexible though and I can pilot my Jenner, Hunchback or Catapault also for any group drops, especially if we can get a Founders Lyran group drop. Not sure if I can do a full 30 drops but I will definitely play this weekend.

The hunchie's been on blocks in the front yard for a while, but this is as good a reason as any to bring him back out.

If I'm around and in shape to play, sure. My founder's Catapult is always up for some action. Barring that, Atlas, Hunchback, Jenner, all good.

They all can kill. :)

I'm in, assuming any event won't muddy the waters. Probably won't group but will play until I have 10 victories (however long that takes) with each Founder variant across the weekend.

Honestly - I never quit running my Founder Atlas. I even reverted it to the original paintjob. It still wrecks balls.

cuz.
