I think i goofed up.. the battle itself was more like 2 hours. for an hour we were getting the right config of ppl, mages were coming from all over the place, as well we were discussing the right plan for the situation. The entire ordeal ended 3 hours after it popped but it was 2 hours of {excitement}, and 1 hour of prep
I was AFK when Rabid was running out. I come back and check text history and see him telling me that I'm missing it.
I was fishing in Windurst Woods at the time.
We couldn't have been doing two more different things LOL.
Congrats everyone, including the peaceful photographer.
