I smashed stuff...I never bothered with anything more (even though other wished I would, probably why I don't play anymore). At least now I have somewhat of a choice in the matter as to what form it takes. If only I was a creative individual.

They can be quite inconvenient during bank heists with loads of them running around and you're trying to attack the Guards. Hell, if you allowed Villains to kill civilians it could work as a badge just like you get badges for destroying cars, trucks and other pieces of scenery, and for the Heroes maybe an alternative badge can be given for say, saving civilians from other criminals?

Sorry for the rant, I just think that they are an incredible waste of space even when they can be programmed to be something productive and more in-depth with the nature of this game. Saving them as a Hero or terrorizing them as a Villain.

I've been receiving a lot of interesting feedback lately. So, I thought I would just lay it out for people so there is no misunderstanding...

When I run a team/group, I am pretty much of the opinion that everyone who joins does so of their own free will. I can advertise all day long and you do not have to join teams run by me. Let's just be up front about that. And, I am of the opinion that when you join a team run by me or another person, you are generally agreeing to follow the instructions/directions and fulfill the expectations that person has.
My main expectation is that people on my team are reasonably intelligent and able to perform their role well without having to really be asked. If you are playing a toon with "buffs," then I generally expect that you will make use of those buffs as much as possible. Yes, maintaining some buffs may be annoying, particularly in large groups, but your contribution goes a long way. Even something as simple as spreading out those nifty "Fortune" buffs can help a lot.
Also, I expect (within reason) that people know what's going on and do their best to help the team achieve our objective(s). I do not like having people along who are totally clueless. Even if you have never done something before, you ought to make your best effort to learn so that in the future you know what to do.

Most importantly, I look for people who can take directions and follow them without me having to ask you more than a couple times, preferably only once.

If things are not going well or I feel people are being stupid, just expect that I tend to get very bitchy and cranky. If you can't handle it, just don't join my teams.

In fact, if you can't handle being expected to function at a reasonable level of intelligence, just don't ask to join my teams. I won't be offended.

Other things to know...

I am a huge fan of KILLING stuff. So if you join my team, don't get upset when it isn't the fastest, speediest, ITF in town. If you don't like taking it slower and enjoying a good time, then don't bother joining.

I also like +4 runs. To me, the game is incredibly easy and cranking up the difficulty keeps me entertained longer. Again, if you aren't willing to take up the challenge, then don't join.

A BIG annoyance to me are the people who sign up for one of my +4 KILL ALL TFs, but then the team gets weak-kneed and wants to just "get it done." If you sign up for one of my special teams, don't turn around and be a pansy and start complaining about the time. If you signed up, then I assume you have the time to stay for however long it takes. Which, these days, +4 stuff really doesn't take that long.

Anyways, just putting this out there to disarm those who think they can ***** at me about stuff. You have been forewarned and have no excuse. Feel free to spread the word. Not my problem if people can't handle being on an awesome team.

FYI... I have no regrets about kicking people from my team(s) who I find to be too much of a drag on the team.

DC quite frankly either needs to suck it up and sit down with the Superman estate and hammer out a mutually fair and profitable deal, or else start grooming Captain Marvel/Shazam as the replacement to Superman if they lose the lawsuits.

Five Guys = discovered upon moving to Seattle. Yum.
Culver's = also quite good, and they were damn accommodating to John and me when we were on restricted diets.
Fatburger = generally nom. Depends on the location.

Then there's the pizza thing. I'm from New York. I KNOW New York style pizza. (I also know New York cheesecake.) I laugh long and hard and LOUDLY in places that advertise having either and fail to meet expectations. There was ONE place in ALL of Arizona that made New York style pizza, and that was NYPD Pizza. I have not yet found a Seattle equivalent.

Now I'm hungry, damn it.

The new one really is better than the old one anyway. It updates the game quicker and it eliminates the need to have multiple shortcuts on the Desktop for Test and Beta. *shrugs*

Four costumes.

As far as I'm aware you can't monitor the rolls to see if it happens or not.
