Wasn't sure if this is the right topic to pitch something like this but that's what moderators are for, right? Alright, so what's this about? I've noticed that quite a few of us on here are into the salt mining business that is Overwatch, hence why I'm throwing out a bit of an interest check. I'm here to talk to you about the Overwatch Initiative. So, what does it involve? Well, I'm hoping to put together a collective of like-minded players and fans of the game, form into groups and do competitive or even just quick play or arcade games with. If you don't feel up for doing competitive, that's totally fine too! I welcome all here.

If you're interested, all you need to do is post the following:

What times suit you the best?

What role do you like to play and what characters are you best with and/or enjoy playing the most?

What game mode you prefer or are happy with? List all that apply, or just put 'Any'.

What platform do you play on?

What Battletag/PSN/Xbox Live name do you go by?

Hopefully this'll be a good way to get to play some Overwatch together, and most importantly have fun.

Thanks for the responses, guys! Pro Genjis are always welcome, especially if they actually know what they're doing which I believe you do, Surtr. Support mains are loved, thank you! Hanzo is very strong right now in the meta, Odin.

I’m rather inactive as of late, but I occasionally play. I tend to gravitate towards support-type characters, though I’m not very good at the game but I do try.

Thanks guys, I'll get round to compiling everyone's deets on the first post at some point, so everyone has easy access.

Just amended the original post with everyone's details, let me know if there are any mistakes. Hope to get some games going in due time!

Throwing out a reminder here, I'll probably try and work out a group meet at some point this week regarding Overwatch. How does Tuesday evening sound for you? I'm available from 7pm GMT onwards, and most likely will be around until 3am GMT. Just testing the waters here in terms of interest and if that region of time works well for anyone.

Oh, sure.
