Forgot about a potential conflict this Wednesday night. I'll update accordingly, but to be safe, you should plan that I won't be there. I'll put myself down as "Decline" for now and only update if my situation changes. -

This is a wallyball night for me. But, I could rush back home quickly and be available around 9:30 PM to platoon from the bench if needed. Let me know. -
Not to speak for Fred, but he intended this to be a place to gather helpful tips on PoF completion. In this case, this is a map location he discovered that reliably drops Late-Blooming Elon Lily You need to collect 10 lillies to combine them into a Florid Bouquet, which progresses The Collection of Tribute. More importantly, completion of this gets those pesky things out of Ser's bags!

For those curious about the origin of our TS server password, I present to you a scene from ReBoot, a beloved show from my childhood. ReBoot is a computer animated TV show that enjoyed a 4 season run across several networks during the mid-to-late 90's. It starred a cast of colorful characters who lived inside a computer and frequently butted heads with the villains who were computer viruses, naturally. I enjoyed it for all the great computer puns: they lived in the city of Mainframe; the city looked like a stack of hard drive platters and was divided into sectors; citizens of the city were called binomes (and looked like either 1's or 0's); other characters had names like Dot Matrix, Megabyte, Hexadecimal (just to name a few). For all its computer punnery, it also paid homage to a lot of pop culture. Many of my earliest references to famous people, music and films are thanks to this wonderfully wacky show. I've still been known to say "hey, this is like that scene from ReBoot!" Like a lot of great things, it was perhaps a bit ahead of its time. It broke new ground as the first regularly running animated show to be produced using 100% computer graphics (CGI). It pioneered a lot of the earliest lip-syncing technology to match voice actors to their characters. And it famously had one of the largest and most expensive rendering server farms of its time, which still took days to render just one 30 minute episode. A lot of computer animated works we take for granted today (looking at you, Pixar!) owe their existence to the pioneers behind ReBoot.

Just finished (match called for darkness). Will be home and ready by 8PM. -

Good chance I will be dropping in. And I know we did PoF bounties in lieu of noodling around in WvW last week. Both are equally agreeable to me. -

I have a tennis match right after work. 5:15 to 7:30pm. Chance I could be late. But I will update this thread when I'm on the way, so look for a comment here. -

On my way now. Be there 8:40 -

This is scheduled to be a wallyball Monday for me, but I know I missed the last 2 Monday raids. If I'm needed, I'll get here at 8:30 PM. -

Please send Osh our best! Hoping for relief and a speedy recovery for him! -

Tentatively, I'm a late arrival again, around 9:30 PM. -

Unfortunately, I've got an O's game this Monday. I can cut out a little early though and be back home around 9:00PM. Sorry, I know that makes 2 straight Monday's I've missed. -

I'll do whatever it takes to answer the call! See you all then! -

Tentatively, I should be available. Will ultimately depend on how I recover from our first v-ball match of the new season early this evening. -

I can drop in sometime close to 9:30 PM. Tuesdays are a regular conflict night for me through 9:00 PM. -

I'm a little out of sync from the recent trips, but this is probably a wallyball Monday for me. Let me know if you expect to be shorthanded for raids and I'll see what I can do. Otherwise, I'll be back to warm the bench after 9:00 PM. -

Happy to take a seat on the bench if you need me. I'll be around at 8:00PM sharp. -

Sadly, there's a good chance I'll miss the council while vacationing down in Ocean City. I support whatever decision is reached. And, I also have 12,000 gems in 2k denominations ready to gift out to any Cobras that need it. They are in the form of gift cards and the redemption codes are transferable. -
Link to the upcoming balance changes: https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/game/gw2/Upcoming-Stat-Changes-in-the-Q3-Balance-Update Let's collect our theories and analysis here, specifically as it affects the raid encounters. Thanks!

Continuing to work on my leg tan at beach week. -

Sorry, I'll be away at Ocean City this whole week. -

Sorry to continue the flurry of missed raid nights, but I have tickets to the O's game this Wednesday. Afraid my absenteeism will not improve in the coming weeks, as you'll see...
