Event Description:
Come out and have some fun assaulting the temples of Orr. There will be plenty of loot for everyone.

The object of this event is to capture all of the temples of Orr in sequence, starting with Balthazar and ending with Grenth.

There are two variants to this event, for the Epsilon variant we will guest on another server, for the Sigma variant we will host the event on our server. These variants will run on alternating weekends, with a Sigma event following an Epsilon event.

Operation Epsilon:
For this variant we will guest on another server and clear out their temples. We will be out there to show them what the players from SBI are made of, so put your best foot forward.

The server we guest on will change each time and will be announced in advance. At the end of this event we will invite players to join us for the Sigma variant hosted on our server the following week.

If you want to help spice up this event, you can join a guild created especially for this purpose: Stormbluff Isle Invader [SBI]
It helps indicate where we are from and has a little fun with the names of opposing servers as seen in WvW.

Operation Sigma:
For this variant we will clear out the temples on our server, and invite players from other servers to guest with us. And again we want to show the other servers just how cool and classy our server can be, while killing zombies.

Date and Time:
Both events will be hosted at 4 PM PDT on Saturday (11 PM UTC).

lol...good question Tacktix.

Well for the first official event I had HoD in mind...but I am open to suggestions.

I guess I should pick one for preliminaries...I decided on Eredon Terrace.

I would say = a short feasibility test on a ghost server.

Then, for the first "invasion" I would suggest TC. They know us and out situation, seem like fun people, and there are lower chances to be completely ignored or highly reported to Anet :) Heh - we could even transform into Dolyaks at the end (I'll bring the potions) since they seem to have it as a local tradition that we could honor.

There is a tricky topic - should we invite the ex SBIers to join us in some of these invasions ?
Pro: this would be the ultimate "no hard feelings on any side" message. Let's have fun together.
Cons: maybe there are "hard feelings" on our side that deserve being respected.
We're not outnumbered, it's just a target-rich environment

Earendil, I think we should leave the ex-SBIers out of it for now unless they specifically ask. The invitation is there and "understood" since we've made it several times in other ways, but reaching out every single time we have something is going to make it seem like we're desperate for them to show back up and carry us to victory again. Maybe a few months down the line we can be more direct.

It might be a good idea not to go on a server that we are currently in a WvW matchup with that week. Things tend to get blown out of proportion on the various forums when one server is seen on other server during a match....:)

Great job Earendil and Cheetah! Earendil even got his commander tag so it was easier to have someone to know where we were on the map so congrats to him! We had an awesome turn out. Thanks to everyone that came out!
