This "Player Matchup" thread's purpose is to help bring together some of the PC/PS2 population spread across the Universe. It is in no way, shape or form, a clan. It's purpose is to rather be used as a tool, a way to locate and find other PSOW players in-game, without the hassle of hunting through lobbies and different Universes.
This is also in trial form. All input/feedback/opinions and ways to change and help evolve this to a point that makes finding parties anywhere easier are absolutely welcome.
What seems to me to be the easiest way to get things started, is a way to tell people where you are and what you are doing. This is basic, but will give people a way to find you if you are creating a party. If you wish to start a game and are looking for people to join you, try using the following formula or something similar:
Your Character Name
Universe
Mission You Are Running (lvl requirements)
Lobby
PW lock (if you only want PSOW members)
Number of Current Open Slots
Someone following that information should be able to find you. If they are newer to the game, or need help accessing the lobby, you could also add something like "rides available" to your post. An estimate of how long you will be running the mission would probably be good too.
Also, please add a current "STATUS" of the mission you are running. IE: if you just posted, and will be running for a bit, add something like STATUS: IN PROGRESS to your post. When you are finished running your mission, and are logging off or going afk, please use the edit feature on your post to change the status to STATUS: CLOSED, so people know you are no longer running the mission. Since people are in all sorts of different timezones, this will be the easiest way for people anywhere to see what missions are open and which are done.
Again, if any helpful ideas come about to make this an easier way of finding players, please use this thread to state them as well.
