For once, my only reply to something of this nature is...

._. (for visual interpretation of this particular emote, see link in sig)

...Why did I keep reading.

I knew in my heart this could never end well!

I'm more interested in pictures of T&A, personally. :3c

But that's just me.

Tattoos are nice, but I'm more into etching/scarring..

Further, someone wanting to get a tattoo of something that A) I'd designed for my own personal amusement and B) Commissioned someone to do an art piece for would be very, very weird. And I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with it.

I go with the recommendation someone else said: I'd tell the artist that while I'm personally flattered, I'd Really Rather You Didn't do that piece in particular. But the guy can't miss with your work.

And with that artist? Dood. Anything would be rawk.

However, it's up to you, TA. I'm just a silly fox.

(This post contains both an opinion, and a Pastafarian mindset. Rather then say 'don't', I find that 'I'd Really Rather You Didn't' to be more appropriate and accurate in most cases. Especially this one, because Final Judgement is always in the hand of the person that did the work, and all you can do is express your opinion on the matter.)

Aww.

The sunset really increases the cute factor.

Oh man.

I can just picture the mini-Bat going 'I AM THE NIGHT!' in a cute, boyish voice.

And the Harley pose was truly excellent. Really captured her perfectly.

Those two stood out, they're all +1 awesome, though.

Meh, might as well just put Temporal on ignore. He's not even amusing these days.

I finally bit the bullet and went with this. Though, we'll see if that carries over when he finally gets enough emo on his new, current name and switches to something else. It'll be an interesting experiment, to say the least.

Or, it is to me. Someone'll probably spoil it for me, though. No sense of scientific integrity!

(This post brought to you by Coffee.)

S'pose that answers that, then.

Ah, well. S'what I get for expecting the best in people.

Still, I did pick up at least some interesting material out of this thread. On a lighter note.

...Okay, I was going to offer actual constructive feedback, but the side-note had me breathing coffee for a moment in between giggles, and in the aftermath of this action my brain shut off.

So, I'm just going to give a shaky thumbs-up until I can breathe properly.

While I mostly disagree with the wording of the OP... I can sort of get at what they're saying. However, I think that changing the statement to more accurately reflect something that doesn't sound biased (whether or not an actual bias exists) would perhaps be beneficial.

IE: Mention instead that Dominators and Masterminds are not ideal for putting together a run for the shortest time possible, and that for the sake of consistency you advise against their recruitment. However, they can be added in, if one is willing to accept the additional factors that come as a result.

That's a lot less harsh then saying, flat out, 'never invite X AT, they suck before Y level'. And more of an accurate portrayal for a set of guidelines.

I don't sugar coat my guides to protect the delicate sensibilities of certain classes or powersets - I'm just going to give you a strait outline of the reality as it is.

It's up to the team leader to take this information in, and then decide whether or not they choose to take chances or run at suboptimal efficiency by recruiting classes that are relatively weak at this level.

My personally? I don't because there's always plenty of brutes/stalkers/veats around, with no need to downgrade to a dominator or mastermind.



[/ QUOTE ]

Ah, so you're one of three things, then. Or a combination thereof:

A) Someone who just wants a pat on the head for being 'efficient' at the sake of someone with actual leadership qualities.

B) A curmudgeon of some variety.

C) An [censored] that thinks because he has success, he should try to tell other people how to be a jerk like him.

Neither of which are of any benefit at all to writing a guide that could actually be useful to the majority of the community at large. Still, I'll take what information I've gleaned from this thread under advisement should I seek to perform my own runs in the future, though I imagine I'll be a bit less picky about who I take with me, and most certainly less insulting.

so why even pug at all?

Because some of us are masochistic, obviously.

Or like people (which can be construed as a form of masochism if you ask me).

Guides to PUG strike force or task force is silly


Say in broadcast, Hey we are going to do XXXXXXX st/tf it takes XX hours.. Who wants in?

then start sending tells asking people to join.. and tell them right up front how long it will take them..

send invites to the people who say sure..

Bam thats my guide

[/ QUOTE ]

Eh. I can see the point in doing it, because it seems like the Cap SF is the only rough equivlant to the Katie TF that villains have. It's short, quick, and dirty. The only thing I can see this having over the Katie TF is that you only, really, need 3 people to run it (Last time I ran it, we had a Corrupter [Fire/Cold], a Brute [Sets escape me], and a Mastermind [Thug/Poison], and it didn't take us more then 45 minutes to burn through things. My only regret is I didn't have Neurotoxic Breath at that point [having taken it 2 levels later. :/]), and that you only really have to worry about one EB/AV (Depending on difficulty and group size, I guess - I'm not really sure).

Oh. And that you can start farming it at 15 if you're so inclined.

Handy to have a guide for that, to be honest..

I'm not sure which I'm more impressed with.

How well that was done, or how fast.

May it be a most excellent service, and marriage.

And if you're going to hurt the groom, make sure to do it out of plain sight. Should it come to that, of course. >.> <.< Aaalways be prepared.

I'm an Alex-fangirl. I think we know what I'm going to say, at this point.

...I'm sorry, you were saying?

My brain sort of... shut off, for a minute there. :3c

Fix'd!

Also, nifty. :3

Maybe a full blow waterfall would be a little much to handle on a live server, and you shouldn't get so worked up about it. Just my thoughts.

On the other hand, Curiosity killed the cat because the fox just wasn't curious enough to object when the cat just had to know first. :3c

...of course, then the fox just had to go find out what happened to the cat...

Very nice! :3 I'm also curious if the artist has a DA page.

Very spiffy work. I love the style used in all of the pieces. :3

Sort of a simple-yet-elegant thing. Vurry schway.

Not quite as bad as I'd ho- FEARED. Feared.

That's exactly what I meant. And I refuse to acknowledge otherwise!
