A Father's Day recognition event would be great. PGI isn't against the Patriarchy, is it?

[Bud Crue]

I thought the stock mode MWOWC was the event to recognize Mechdads?
Oh wait...that was for the Beer League players. Nevermind.

You’re right.
We need a MechDad event for Father’s Day.

[Zyrocenus]

Ya the event needs to be called 'MechDad Mayhem or 'MechDad Madness.... I want Kudos if the event is actually launched and called this

Seriously tho…. my Son and I JacobDiglet founded The StarLeague ROM unit -SROM- and were hoping for some father son quality time in the inner sphere this weekend lol

50 MC and 500,000 C bills for only 500 damage in mechs that are 50 perent off isn't enough of a freebie?

Moar is required. And it doesn't even have to be too generous. Maybe PGI can fire up Photoshop, type in "MECH DAD", save it as a PNG and upload it as a decal as the reward.

[RickySpanish]

They really should have capitalized on it; the "Who's Your Daddy Event" - Get the highest number of kills or kill most damage done in any QP game type. Players must pilot an Atlas to qualify.

Ah well. Celebrating blokes has fallen out of fashion lately, personally I blame metrosexual millennial men who never had any decent father figures to begin with, and they're so desperate to score with the ladies that they'll throw the rest of the gender under the bus

Can you imagine? I'd combine it with the recent decal award for "MECH DAD ASSAULT". Brilliant!

[Weeny Machine]

In recognition of the old classic "Love and a Marriage" I suggest to call it "Psycho Dad"

[Korz]

Just do a quick event were we get baby on board cockpit hanging items...Good Father's day present...

[Novakaine]

Mech dad's and lurmers have been much maligned of late.
Would have been a nice bone from PGI.
Many times I bounced my kids in one knee while I played doom.
And I imagine many dad's are doing the same things today.

I wasn't being greedy. I don't even care about the stuff. The mechfest IS nice but too quickly completed and the sale.... lol.... I already replied to that "bargain". Its for new players short on mechs, nuff said.

I was just ribbing a lil bit at the fact that moms day got an event and dads day so far not even a mention. Im PRETTY sure the MechDads out there outnumber the MechMoms by a fair margin. Not that I like it that way....the world needs more MechChicks.

Zyro

So Im not being greedy, friend.

Also, to say that the 500MC and the 500K isn't enuf isn't even APPLICABLE here.... that's a separate event....they launched it too soon to dads day then I guess? To rebadge it or say this is what its for now is like re gifting yer kids xmas present on his birthday and still having the nerve to say "Surprise!"

What the hell does that even mean?

Just saying a moms -female- day event in a dad -male- dominated game without even a peep so far about dads day, is weird

mysoggyknees = misogyny

I had to go look it up!

[VonBruinwald]

Can't have Mother's Day without Father's Day; it takes two to tango.

As for the rest of us, singles day.

I absolutely agree. It's fashionable to hate on men at the moment. Hence the sarcastic mysoggyknees
