Yeah, when I read that message, Reaperassault was the first thing that struck my mind. Haha, maybe that line has a hidden meaning to it. ;-D

Myth? Diversion Tactic? ..or Reality?

You guys rock! Thanks for putting all of this extra time in and giving to the community.

**DrBeat** · 10-06-2008, 06:20 PM

Looks awesome! Now my question is; Should we update our existing badges with the new ones?

**YdoUwant2know** · 10-06-2008, 06:51 PM

very cool stuff, though, I'm not sure about the command badge... why an EMP?

**Aruncado** · 10-06-2008, 07:58 PM

In answer to all the questions. Yes, I believe you can update your existing ribbons with the game specific ones. Afterall, I've already done it and haven't gotten in trouble yet.

However, (and I'm sure I don't really need to say this) you are still only allowed to wear ribbons that you have been officially awarded after successful class completion.

Will we run out of time that day or will it pour into Sunday as well?

**Flexon** · 10-06-2008, 08:43 PM

looks cool, maybe I'll finally make a class...I know, I'm a slacker

Waaaaah! I'm spending the weekend with my lovely lady friend!! Why this weekend?!

How often do these succulent events happen?

Depends on your definition of "pour into Sunday". I am working pretty hard right now to hammer out a final schedule for the event and am not planning on it running into Sunday as such. However, I will say that there is a particularly special item on the list to occur at midnight. :row_577:

Once in a lifetime. This is the first event of its kind and promises to be the single greatest thing ever to have been hosted by TGU to date. Depending on how well it goes over we may plan more special such events. However, this has been about a month in planning an involves a large amount of time investment by yours truly to arrange, organize, make posters, etc., etc. as well as a strain on the other instructors to try and meet my deadlines.

So in short, you should blow off your lady friend and tell her that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and you'll be happy to take her out on Sunday to make up for it. If she truly loves you she'll understand.

Same thing, really.

**DrFlop** · 10-07-2008, 08:46 AM

I am tempted...

Will there any pre-requisites to this event? I currently have zero awards apart from one from a '2142-health and safety' course, ha! I'm priceless.

**Kappa** · 10-07-2008, 09:05 AM

I am RTO (Requesting Time Off) from work for this! I'm so excited =D

I prefer my old Commander and SL badges.. But some of the new 1's look wicked!

It was one of the more recognizable assets and I thought it looked better on the ribbon than the other ones.

It would most likely be a benefit to go into Instruc-Terror with your Basic Infantry requirement already fulfilled seeing as it is the prerequisite for all other TGU courses. I plan on running one more basic infantry course before the event itself (most likely 10/26). So keep your eyes open and try to get into it. Otherwise there will be no prerequisites or requirements to participate.
