    City of Villains men:

    Join us on the Pinnacle server!

    I'd like to create the super group today, we still need to decide on a name.
    Current names with more than one vote:

    Lampshade Assassins
    Giant Communist Robots (I was initially going to vote for this one, but if the GMs deem it inappropriate they will change the SG's name to GenericSupergroup#6312452)
    Please vote for these, or suggest another if you want.

    As for the leaders I think Bantis had the best idea with "thinking maybe the few shackers that have been with this since the original thread a few days ago, and all shackers having the ability to invite."
    I'll promote those people once they join the super group.

    Also: turn on prestiege until level 25 because it will not deduct from your total amount of infamy earned.
    +
    I created a global chat channel for us, to join it right click on your chat window, click Join Channel, and type Shacknews.
    Anyone that is a leader in the SG will get moderator rights in the channel as soon as we get things settled.
