  1. Hmmm, it doesn't sound like I missed much. Thanks for the feedback, all.
  2. Happy belated birthday wishes.

    And don't make me laugh too hard, this also is dangerous.

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    Joking around about it helps to keep my spirits up. Things are improving steadily and for this I am thankful.

    He, he, he. Do I detect a bit of squeamishness?

    My surgeon assured me that everyone gets them at some point in their life. Women who have borne children are definitely at risk.
  7. I missed all the fun for both of these events. How did things go? I saw the posts of everyone's progress with their toons(congrats for all the new 50's, etc.), but I haven't seen any mention about Mako. Was it fun? Did you get badges and special things? Maybe the Dev's will do it again?

  9. Hi, everyone.

    The surgery went just fine. I was in and out of the hospital after about 4 hours. However, the recovery has been extremely painful. I have been on 3 different drugs for the pain ( one of which is a narcotic). It wasn't life threatening, but it was needed. (hemorrhoids) I was having some bleeding and they said I needed have them surgically removed or I could become anemic. I never would have thought that it could hurt so much. The worst is over, but I still can't sit for very long. They say I should be much better by next weekend. Oi!

    I may pop on Infinity for short periods of time just for a diversion.

    Hugs to all.

  10. The XXP gods have shined upon you!

    I saw the server got to yellow load a couple of times, but I don't know where all of the people were. They certainly weren't teaming with me.

    Meanwhile, on Freedom I got my Dark/Dark Controller from 18 to 42 (where I cut myself off). Then I got an Elec/Energy Stalker from 1 to 22 (again, where I cut myself off).

    And finally, on Liberty of all places (I have an internet friend who started playing over there and dragged me over), I got my Fire/Elec Tanker from 10 to 24.

    All in all, TOO MUCH PLAYING, but not enough focused to Infinity. I feel like I need a detox.
    It is often difficult to get a team on XXP weekends. It may be due to people planning teams and events with their global friends and SG's. Something we have found effective, if you are a dangling participle is to start a radio/newspaper mish team. I have always been able to hook up with a few folks that way. People come and go, but it is pretty easy to pick up strays that way and have a good sized team for as long as you want to play.

    Just in Case

    Congratulations on your new home!

    Setting up your own home is always a fun adventure (and a lot of work too). You don't have to worry about security deposits or what the landlord thinks of your fuchsia and teal bathroom.

    Hope to be back teaming again myself.

    OMG, you guys are the ultimate geeks, are you not? Hugs anyways and I am still hoping that you will someday emerge from your parents basements and get real lives.

    Lazy and apathetic maybe, but most likely just exhibiting Noob-osity.

    Yes, yes, I will always be Forever Noob and you are soon to be Cuppa Incarnate. Yay!

    Now, the first few links were discussing the new colored titles. But the fifth link yielded the following:
    0 Citizen
    25 Informant
    50 Recruit
    100 Trainee
    200 Rookie
    400 Cohort
    700 Super-Powered
    1200 Mentor
    1600 Legend
    5000 Renowned
    10000 Forum Cartel
    20000 Cuppa Incarnate

    First of all, thank you. I now see what I am aiming for and I also see I have a lot of work ahead of me. Cohort sounds good, but Super-Powered sounds even better.

    *sigh*

    I wish I didn't care enough and just to put a bunch of smileys, but alas I cannot!
    To be honest, I really don't care that much either. I started this thread as a joke, but it has become a mission, a goal and yes, I have found smiley's to be very effect.

    *Because teleport is for n00bz.

    Wait.

    Do kids these days still use n00bz?
    Tiny, Tiny, Tiny. Teleport is now sooo in, since Long Range Teleport has been added as an option. Although it has been some what mitigated since the Team Transport (bus) has been made available. Still, it comes in very handy at times.
