Ok, so what's our strategy for this round? I'm in an evasive Urban lv.50 skell if anyone's curious.

Great fun, guys, and thank you Primulus for all your support and advice for everyone. So we've learned how to improve things for next time: - External voice chat would be very helpful to keep everyone in the loop in a timely manner. Squad report chat is not very useful.
- Setting a time for nemesis battles is good for getting everyone synchronized.
- Maaaybe skip the skells on lesser missions so we can enjoy ourselves instead of blasting away the objectives faster than the lag can keep up?
Any other suggestions?

HOW DID YOU GET UP THERE!?
I was so confused when no one was waiting for me in the room when I arrived. "Ah, they must be in the hangar or something" I thought, but no the place was empty! Suddenly I hear an evil laugh from somewhere! But where? Confused and scared I went back to the network console and saw Primula and Wolfe standing on top of the big screen. I felt so betrayed! Seriously, well played guys. I laughed so hard once I saw you up there. XD
Anyway, great work! That time went a lot better! My new skell performed better than I expected too! ^^

In spite of how terrible the game is at allowing you to communicate and organize, the emotes work rather well. And you can get up there with a sprint jump.

Any other suggestions? Welcome! I'm glad I could help. It was pretty fun! And we don't even really need an external voice chat, even. Just some kind of chat program (text or otherwise) that is automatically updated instead of needing to reload the page to see new messages. A skype group would have sufficed in that way, too. Agreed on all other counts, though. Perhaps next time, if we have more than four people, we can divide into two groups. Like if we had eight people, split everyone off into two organized groups (that would still be in the same squad). We could knock out squad tasks together with the whole group of us, but then when squad missions were ready, we could split up into our organized groups so that people aren't getting left behind. Same goes for doing The Final Menace and The Planet's Guardian. HOW DID YOU GET UP THERE!? I was so confused when no one was waiting for me in the room when I arrived.

We had some really awesome moments this time. Best moment was the Skellnado and the Prone.

Hahaha, Skellnado was amazing! I'm very glad we did this, and I hope we do it again soon. All of you guys are awesome!
I agree with the points Wolfe posted as well. Voice chat would be convenient, but text chat works too.
Yeah, Primulus you da man! You've been extremely helpful since day one. Thank you so much!

We do have our very own chat box here...I should have suggested that earlier. I also agree with your suggestion of splitting into assigned parties, Primulus; we can assign party captains to host missions. And I'll mention again that ancientrune was right in that we'd do better to commandeer a Lifehold squad for our purposes, to minimize competition for party slots. While the game made things somewhat difficult for us to do this, the experience was that much better compared to playing with randoms who just want to burn through missions and farm nemesis parts. Skellnado...

I'm glad all of you had fun and got to troll Link there for a bit via my hiding spot, hahaha.
But yeah, Skellnado, man. It'll be hard to top that.
I'll be planning another meetup soon, seeing that we were relatively successful in spite of only a few people signing up.
