Party on the subway?

I posted this to the Party Planning group as well- would a party on the subway be possible (assuming you massed everybody up in a station and embarked en masse), or would the train simply leave the station as soon as there were 3 people aboard? I ask, because I've never actually been on a train with more than two people total, and it seems like it would be a lot of fun.

  • We once tried to see how many glitches it takes to fill a train car and came up with 11! Seems you cannot "follow" onto to the train

  • better plan might be a round the world party where each subway stop would be its own party happening at the same time (um featuring a type of drink and food) and we would ride the train between them.

  • Artilect, that's a great idea.

  • This is the kind of EotW party I'd like to have before the reset. Otherwise I don't know how it would affect the use of the subways or terminals... Actually that would be a good test. :)

  • This is the kind of EotW party we've considered and rejected multiple times before now.

    The subway cars are instanced so everyone would end up separated and stragglers would end up isolated.

    In terms of testing how this all works, that was tested when subways first came out, which is why we know the trains can only hold 11 players each.

    Artilect's idea makes more sense.

  • Stops aren't a bad idea- I wasn't sure whether it was instanced or not, but that answers my question.

  • we could meet at griddle forest junction and then advance to a new station every ten minutes or so, popping topside each time.

  • I like artilect's idea. How many stops are there? Maybe in addition to food, there could be a different activity to do at each location. Races at one, conga line at another, purple flowers at another, etc.. ?
