WHAT: *Focused repair skilling in significant "afk friendly" blocs of time. (minimum 2 hr blocs are our goal once our pilots gain experience in the process of taking damage for skillers and balancing damage taken to available repair capacity.) *This is the third of a series of "shakedown" cruises. In which, we are still working out coordination systems and developing piloting expertise. The level of service provided will not be of the high quality we aspire to in the future during this training/learning period. WHEN: 19:00 hrs EU time, TUESDAY, APRIL 8th, to WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9th at 19:00 hrs EU time. WHERE: *Boarding from Arkadia SS ... the ship is the Pathfinder IX *BOARDING TIME: SKILLING IS PROCEEDING AS SCHEDULED. MESSAGE TARCOULA STORMDANCER ULURU OR THE PILOT ON DUTY TO COORDINATE DOCKING/BOARDING TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY. Message me or a pilot for estimated docking times throughout the day and we will try to dock at times convenient for those wishing to join the ship and skill. This is one area of this project where we are learning the best ways to get things done *There will be a summons sent to Calypso at approximately 16:00 hours when we are scheduled to take control of the Pathfinder IX. Pilots and skillers who wish to join us for the "slow-boat" trip to Arkadia SS are welcome to do so. Once on board I will review the guestlist with Ganzo and there may be a second summons sent to Calypso just before we begin the journey to Arkadia. Otherwise you are welcome to meet us at Arkadia SS for boarding throughought the 24 hour skilling period. *HOW: 1. Register your interest by posting your full ingame avatar name in this thread. I will acknowledge your registration so you know I have seen it. 2. Send a friend request to Kenji Ganzo Hiroshi and request addition to the guestlist of the Pathfinder IX to ensure you have access to the ship when boarding commences. *Out of respect for Ganzo's time I request that you have your friend request sent no later than 1600hrs, Monday, April 7th. I do not expect Ganzo to react to last minute administrative tasks, though he is free to choose whether he will or not.

Well it appears these updates are becoming my personal curse . Three out of four voyages have been affected by them and this one is scheduled to shut down the servers the exact hour I was supposed to take control of the ship and Ganzo was going to summon at Caly. So, we're a bit up in the air now as to exactly when we will get the ship and get on our way to Arkadia SS and some skilling runs. Cest' la Vie! I'll have to see how long the update actually keeps the servers down and adjust to circumstances as they reveal themselves I'll update the thread as soon as possible after the servers come back on line tomorrow!

Boy did I screw the pooch on the VU/server downtime conversion. *facepalm* The servers are down now and unless the VU is just a total disaster (very unlikely) they will be back up and running LONG before our 16:00 hrs summons is supposed to be sent. Our original schedule appears unthreatened and as of now we are returning to the assumption that we will be unhindered and on schedule in all respects. My sincerest apologies See you at the summons approximately 7 hrs from the time of this post. (16:00 - 16:15 EU time, just in case my maths got the best of me again ) Storm
