Aggelakis

4XP is the hero name of the new difficulty changes.
SRSLY is the villain name.

So everyone can hack 4XP/SRSLY, just not to the same extent!

For future reference, the card you got with GvE isn't a time card. It's a retail code. It doesn't function the same as a time card. It doesn't count as a time card. A time card is a completely separate item.

I love it when people think that I am taking personal insult when I don't say that I am. The internet doesn't convey emotion. Take my posts as having no emotion, and you've come pretty close to how I always post, unless I'm putting a bunch of punctuation in.

Turn off chat (by default, it's the "C" button) while in a PVP zone. Continue on your merry, player-mauling way.

Just realize that people are stupid, in general. When they're getting beat at something, they magically become even more stupid. And a very large number of them have not matured yet, and so you get to add wacky entitlements and weird views of the world to the stupidity. Basically, it's a recipe for disaster if you pay any attention to most of the chat happening in a PVP zone.

Today is Friday, September 18th.

The one I linked to is Thursday, September 17th. That was yesterday. Mm hmm.

There's another one today. That link is Live Server Downtime - Friday, September 18th, 2009.

I am incredibly original. I'm not just tooting my own horn here.

I have over 100 characters. (Most of them I don't play very often. I enjoy playing them all.) The only character I have that has a workaround (he has a dash at the end of his name), I made about a month after I started playing and didn't care, cos I thought I was going to delete him. I haven't gotten petty cash to pay for a rename yet, so he stays with the frivolous dash.

Not to mention, I have Aggelakis on every North American server, with different power sets for each one for testing and messing around. Under the unique-name theory, I wouldn't be able to do that.

However, making names unique across all the servers combined is a ridiculous and STUPID idea. There's approximately 120,000+ subscriptions (using the smallest number), and the average number of characters on a subscription (the last time it was released) was somewhere around 12. (I think 12; might have been 10 or 14.) 120,000 x 10 (using the smaller number just for ease of example) is 1,200,000 names that HAVE TO BE UNIQUE. Instead of being able to divide that by fifteen servers (seventeen if you count the two test servers).

Yeah. Great idea. *drips with sarcasm*

Hey Lemur Lad, why don't you use the quote button? When you just copy/paste and create your own quote in the QR box, it doesn't create an "Originally Posted by X" with a link to the post at the top. You were one of the proponents of specifying QR due to the RE: box in the old forums, why take this up?

(Not meant to be hostile, just an honestly curious question.)

You could perhaps take a look at the announcements?

Specifically, the one labeled "NA & EU Live Server downtime – Thursday, September 17th"?

The FIRST place you should look is announcements for anything, then look in the announcements discussion forum (three down from the announcements forum). If it's not there, THEN you can come asking in PQ.

Not that I know of. It's not documented on Paragon Wiki's H.Maylor page, nor its talk page. I haven't heard of it prior to your statement.

Are you perhaps mistaking this for the Dreck Freakshow mission? That was put on a timer.

I have never heard of this. I've been playing TFs and Trials basically since I started in winter 2005.

I do know that scaleable trials (not all trials scale) prior to I16 would scale to the highest level member, plus the star-holder's notoriety. So your example would have the enemies at level 31, plus the level 28's difficulty.

If I gauge it correctly, I16 just uses the star-holder's notoriety, SK/EXing everyone to +1/-1 of them.

It didn't. They're talking about closed beta, I guess, cos open beta it's always been five levels.
