After a good deal of thought, I don't think I am going to run raids of 150+ people anymore. While I greatly enjoyed both of the large open raids, the organizational and technical difficulties are significantly larger than for a group of 30-50 heroes. Additionally, the sheer mass of heroes makes anonimity easy to find, and even if we don't attract griefers, the perception definitely exists that griefers are present and attempting to steal Hami SOs. I would be lying if I said that the aftermath of the second raid did not impact this decision; that whole mess really put a damper on my enthusiasm.
However, I definitely still enjoy raiding Hami (and indeed have raided him with some of you since the last big open raid), and I will undoubtedly try to organize smaller raids in the future. These will not be widely publicized, but I will do my best to contact those of you who have expressed an interest in coming to these things. If you don't receive an invite, it's not because I don't want you there but probably because I either wasn't positive how to contact you or because there are so many names to remember, some are undoubtely going to be lost in the depths of my mind. (My poor memory is one of the reasons I feel compelled to write out highly detailed raid plans so I don't forget anything.)
Also, if you would like to arrange a Hami raid (even on very short notice), I'd be happy to lend a hand doing anything from blasting with the masses to helping with coordination and communication. Just drop me a line.
