Fuck yeah A-Jack, they will be hypnotized by our undulating cheeks of justice.
Also, stuff to bring:
Water bottles. It's an evening raid, but it'll still be toasty!
Signs. This is really important and people tend to neglect this. The majority of people who will see us will be cars, so while warm bodies are good for grabbing attention, without a sign you won't be as effective. Bring extra signs if you've got the materials. This way we get a variety of messages across and people who don't bring any will have something to wave around. If you don't have time to make one before the raid, just hit up a store on your way and bring the materials, it's easy to make one on site.
Fliers. Can never have too many of these! We hand them out to passers by and people stopped at the light. Leftover fliers can be re-used and/or plastered around your neighborhood for the dissemination of juicy delicious knowledge.
Also, if anyone has a portable stereo of some sort, that would be marvelous. If you don't have any of the Raid music, that's fine, most of us here have it so just let us know and we'll bring some phat beats.

my bus was waaaaaay damn late so i missed my other bus and was sitting around for a while waiting for the next one. By the time I got there it was about 6:40 and you all had left.
Actually we prolly hadn't
Actually we prolly hadn't gotten there yet. A Team was was at Jack in the box, /b/ team was still en route. I think we tried calling you, but to no avail.
So I've got the post-raid
So I've got the post-raid report here.
We got off to a late start, but had about 10 anons out shakin their shit last night. A modest turnout, but pretty good for this time of year. I expect the raids to get a lot bigger once the school year gets under way. We started off at the usual spot across the org, but then moved down to the stop light once it got darker. We ended up calling it a night around 9pm. We got a looot of honks, we attributed that to Saturday night partiers mostly, but hey we made an impression. Got some fliers passed out. There was one woman in a pickup we tried to hand a flier too, but she got pissed off because she "couldn't read" and demanded we explain what we were doing. Lulz. Thanks to J.Quinn and Nigra for providing music, we rocked out. Apologies to any Anons who might have showed up at 6pm and had to head out because no one was there. As I mentioned above we ended up in 2 groups basically, one was holding down Jack in the Crack while the other was fetching /b/lackup. So all in all I'd say the raid was win. There was room for improvement, but considering pretty much zero planning went into this one, not bad at all.
So what to expect from future Raids? Fear not, we're getting back into our groove for fall. We'll announce future Raid dates sooner and put some planning into effect for maximum win/lulz. We're gonna start doing Ask Anonymous on the University regularly which will generate interest. Also flier drops: We don't plan these on Yii or in advance really because they require we meet in public without masks, so I would say lurk in #tucson on irc, or better yet, flier your neighborhood/local hot spots for best results. Basically, we laid low for the summer, but we're back in effect now so check in regularly for events/planning.
