Here are a few items (thingies) worthy of note:
Thingie #1
Crimson Permanent Assurance Elites
I will be starting a Graduation SG: Crimson Permanent Assurance Elites, or whatever permutation is allowed by max number of characters in an SG name.
Everyone should keep their favorite level 50 toon in the CPA, but try to move other 50s to the Elites. I'll be starting this SG with Boreal Tempest, my second level 50.
Those moved over to the Elites will get their name on a post here on the CPA site congratulating them on entering into the Elites and noting how much prestige they ultimately contributed to the CPA coffers. Make sure you don't quit out of the CPA before I note the amount of prestige for the CPAE roster! Once you exit the SG, the record is gone.
The Elites will have full access to the base portals of the CPA base and may have a little base of their own where extra storage could be set up, if prestige there allows - much like the CPA Reserves base.
The reason for the Elites SG is to keep our ranks fresh with new toons that graduates want to play and keep some slots available to add new people to the SG as we come across them. We have a place to keep inactive alts, but we also could benefit by having a place to put our graduates as well. Since we are beginning to see more and more 50s.. seems like the right thing to do.
Thingie #2
Base Storage
People need to feel free to use the base storage.. and by use I mean use up the stuff that is in there. I just put in a bunch of my ending inspirations from Boreal and Armored as gifts.. some nice greens and wakies in there. I also put in three enhancement tables with the idea of using one to hold 51+s for people who like to push enhancements on their 50s. The other two are for filling full of expensive enhancements that newer toons can pull from freely to get some EZ starting influence if they like. An influence bank of sorts since we cannot have influence accounts to easily transfer influence to starting toons.
So I'd ask that people keep the 51+s for those who wish to kit out their 50s but that people who are starting out on lower level toons feel free to pillage the other two to get some starting influence. I'm hoping to fill them both up with higher and higher level SOs as time goes on so we get the biggest bang for the buck with 'em. Since lower levels can be painful at times.. any edge we can give to the newer folks would be great.. early DOs and SOs can make a big difference!
Thanks again for your contributions to the base and SG!
