Hi all,

Over in  #hawkenscrim on quakenet IRC, we've noticed the disappointment that many EU players have been experiencing by not being able to participate in the organized scrims that go on there, simply because it's way past EU bed time when the scrims start going on.

Because I know the interest is there, I want to announce an EU organized game night this Saturday night, the 23rd, at 8pm GMT+0 (which is 2pm US East).

The organized games that go on are comprised of manually balancing teams (no clan or team affiliation required), 6v6, where everyone joins the same server and plays out multiple matches on Missile Assault.  The gameplay experience can be vastly different from average pub play as everyone in the server will know the basics of the game, and be encouraged to communicate and play as a team using mics.

Here is a thread where a member has been posting his recorded videos from past scrims:
http://community.pla...-match-threads/

I encourage all European players to stop by the #hawkenscrim channel this Saturday night to help kick start a European organized scene.  Should this event be successful I will encourage EU players to return every night to gather for more organized games.

US players can also participate but, a warning, as I am hoping EU players will be the majority, we should be playing on European servers and so US West players will have atrocious ping.  I will be participating (I am US East) as I can play on EU servers with ~120 ping.

Also, we will be using mumble for outside of Hawken communication and organization, so please have it installed if you are wanting to participate.  No mic or speaking required, it's more so that you can listen and be aided in organization.

If you have any questions, please post here, or even better, stop by the channel and ask in person!

Thanks!

I'll be definately joining this organized game if my personal life doesn't have something else instored for me then.
See you on the battlefield pilots, for victory and glory! Or well just for fun.

Get your hard on.

Keep in mind I said GMT+0, that is 8pm Euro time, 2PM US EST.  Your escort OP says 9pm EST.  EU's should be going to bed by 5pm US EST.  We could try to run your event out of the #hawkenscrim channel after the EU's nod off.  There's still a huge time gap of 4 hours, the two events shouldn't overlap.

I'd love to participate in this as well, if at all possible. My tolerance for poor ping can be pretty high. :) If not I'll be more than happy to check out the fights on stream, I know there's a ton of amazing players out there, but I just haven't had the privilege of seeing what very many of them are capable of.
