  1. if I'm not doing anything important at the time, I'll stop by to be a few bodies to be hit on. I don't need the badges but I'd gladly help someone who does.
  2. Browser issue? I didn't use Steam's browser, I just use Google Chrome. Worked fine for me, nothing Voodoolike about it at all.
  3. I don't even think you have to use the program, as long as you have a steam account to place the order with, which you should be able to do from the website. I hated Steam too until I was forced to use it to play MW2, now I have to like it.

    Shamster pointed this out last month, but it was only a 24-hour sale. I've looked around but can't find any ending time to this sale so I'll be using it to buy all the time on my accounts until it ends. Also includes magic or cyborg booster pack, but is still worth the discount even if you have both. Cheers

    It's my brother, @Elegost. TECHNICALLY it was me (until he pays me back) but I called him and told him the auction was going on and he told me to put the bid down for him. He hasn't had his computer/internet since the auction so he hasn't seen any of this. I'm sure he'll PM you when he's back in business.

    Although I was the one to buy my brother anyways... supposin' I could force him to share his time with Ocho with me >.>
  6. I've been gone because I ran a CC cleaner at the referral of a friend, which broke one of my Windows system files. I had to reinstall XP (and bought Windows 7 while I was at it*) and I've been slowly reinstalling drivers and programs ever since. I still don't have sound.


    *Student discount woohoo!

    Also I will not be online Tomorrow until 9:30, but I should still be showing up if the event is still going on.
  8. I only know the only names I have that other people are likely to want are 'Phi' and 'Facade' (which I think I acquired from FMP by accident). Other than those and a few others, I usually just throw 'yxx' at the end of a word that ends in R and call it a day.

    *Edit* but I'm not giving up those names

    All Defender ITF

    Again, it would have to be later in the evening for me. Go for it on Sunday afternoon if you get more participants though.

    All Defender ITF

    If this is after 9:45pm, I would love to play; I have a couple Defenders to offer:
    --50s--
    Kinetics/Dark Blast
    Kinetics/Ice Blast
    Cold/Ice Blast
    Radiation/Ice Blast
    Sonic/Sonic Blast
    Empathy/Dark Blast


    Force Field/Psychic Blast-40
    Empathy/Ice Blast-39
    Kinetics/Archery-38
  11. Once of the Devs said that the Doves was an easter egg for the conference only, we won't have then in game. I'm pretty sure the power at 23 WAS the change ammo type power, because his bullets seem to be toxicy afterwards. The power animation has the character looking at the guns and fiddling with them; it takes a second or two to activate, so I really do hope that we don't have to cycle through the damage types to get to the one we want, but without seeing the HUD, I guess we'll still have to keep pondering.

    It makes me wonder if they could reprogram other sets to deal other damage types of our choice as well. Maybe choose your type when you take the powerset from the beginning or during respecs. That's how I would do the 'electric hammer' set or something like it. Just be war mace and make it 70% smashing and 30% energy for all the attacks. That'd be awesome.

    Really? We have what, 2, 3 sonics, 3 traps, 1 cold, 1 FF defenders? I usually run at like 90% def or something ridiculous for a tank, I thought the squishies were at least softcap-faring. Was kinda wishing I'd rolled something squishier, or at least more damage. /ice on a tank really forces me to focus on aggro control though.

    I was under the impression that it was simply because they couldn't think of anything better, or the things that they came up with kept being more Technology oriented and didn't fit into the science umbrella.

    Too Soon

    Are the markets being messed with really though? I got one of my projects to 47 and am halfway through his new shiny IO build... but I haven't noticed anything weird about the prices of anything that I've been buying, except for maybe some rare salvage going up to 3 million (of course I just went to AE for those). Even bought some purples.

    Also note that I did NOT choose that face. It was probably reptilian until I tried to make my boots this color combination, then everything disappeared and my face changed to this one.

    This picture is over two years old so they've probably killed this version of the bug, but it should help to find the right color combination


  17. Most of my toons (in the yxx family) start out mostly naked for thematic purposes. They're all aliens that crashed here and picked up whatever they found to wear. As the characters level up, I give them better looking and more ornate costumes. They're reptilian people who don't wear clothes on their homeworld. THAT'S why they're always so ugly, Coz.

    Not DC ugly, just not-cute ugly.

    Btw this is Hypothermyxx, he's an ice/ice tank. Will probably end up taking ice mastery for thematic purposes.

    I appreciate people who say that these are all photoshopped (especially in the case of the video, seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg0e4...e=channel_page ) because I'm really not that great at photoshop. To be honest, the big biggest project I've really done so far is this picture of Ele and our sister.

    Where are you?

    They have Lexington Meetups once or twice a year, but The Frog is the only person involved that I know and I really don't even know him.

    Why is this directed at me? Ele and I really are different people >.> I think he meant this (Isolators) was fun. He usually lets me PL him through the first while because it's hard to find competent players on the fly at super low levels.

    The tanking was a little difficult with two scrappers running lightning field and I only chilling embrace; I had to Des ahead just to get initial aggro. Never taken taunt this early before, and I'm loving the free end cost on it now.
