Does this mean we should have gotten the list or has it not been sent out yet? First time participating so not sure how that works

Just a reminder that Strike Force Sundays is still going every week. I've been super lazy about posting the screenshots but I'm still taking them. I'll probably post them in batches later on.

Hey guys!
It's been announced. Tanker Tuesday is returning to Protector one last time!
So come on down and get your share of limitless aggro!
When: Tuesday, October 30th
When: 9PM Eastern, 8PM Central, 7PM Mountain, 6PM Pacific
Where: Kings Row, The gate to Independence Port (The Wall)
Who: Tanks. LOTS AND LOTS OF TANKS! -
I'll probably give Champions Online another go-round after November 30th. My in-game handle is Kreetch, and my main character (at the moment) is called Cinnamon.
I've installed Steam but did not find any games to tickle my fancy yet. Tried TF2, but too "twitchy" for me (and I find the controls to be not "keyboard-friendly" - I don't own a game controller and I don't like to play with the mouse). My handle there is "archiviste_qc" and I'm a member of Vorac's "Protector_Server" group. -
I will pass on Guild Wars 2.
* I had heard stories about the way NCSoft handled (i.e. very very badly) sundowns of their games, and now that I have had a first-hand experience with CoH, I do no wish to invest in any game coming from that publisher. This is not NCSoft bashing, but simple consumer weariness.
* The "It's gorgeous" argument usually holds for me for about, humm, 30 minutes. After that I don't notice or I don't care.
* Severe arachnophobia here, so I tend to shy away from any "fantasy-setting" games, since most "fantasy-setting" games have spiders the size of Mack trucks. Yeah, I know there are some here too, but a) I started before Issue 6, so it was not a issue, b) I can tolerate (barely at times) robotic spiders, c) as long as I'm staying clear of the Mender Silos TF and the Jade Spider I'm good. -
Happy Birthday !!

Ever since our Rally last weekend Tony and I have been working on what our next in game event should be. Rallies are great but we wanted to something a bit more active and something that non VIPs could get involved in. We also wanted something that would be a nod to the developers without whom we would have no game to play. With all of that in mind I would like to announce:
Positron's Ally
Two days of Task Force fun.
On Thursday September 20th at 9PM Eastern/ 2AM GMT
And
Saturday September 22nd at 12 Noon Eastern/5PM GMT
Join TonyV, myself and the entire Titan Network team in running the Positron Task Forces, part one and two. In the worlds biggest synchronized Positron Task Force group across all the City of Heroes Servers.
Come with a team already formed or make yourself a PUG while youre there!
Take screenshots, chat with old friends, make new friends and listen to your favorite server based radio stations. -

Assuming we're all still here by then and they haven't kicked us out early...
My birthday is on Wednesday, November 28th, and I would like to run one last Hamidon Raid on that day after Rush the Rikti is over. I'm asking people to bring your Incarnates, your Warburg nukes, your whatever-you-have, and join me to take out the Jell-O just one more time.
Oh, and wear your Hamikinis.
And prepare your fish puns.
And...you know what? You know the drill. I'll see you there.
He'll be there. Just remind me a few days beforehand. -

I will donating upwards of 4B inf that evening for the worst Vogon poetry and the best alien costumes.
The actual total inf package may fluctuate as I consolidate my holdings into one lump sum, and if donations are received.
I would hate to see you on a street corner with a cup in your hand:
By the bye, I'll be there with both my accounts -
Signed up. Thanks, 'Vyx !

Despite the news of today, this is still happening.
It may be the last SSTFM ever, but that's all the more reason to make it memorable. -
Happy Birthday, Cass !

Costumes post updated for clarification. I've got all my costumes done!D'oh !Quote:Originally Posted by MissKyo
Justin Augustine: You know that one costume piece in the editor you can NEVER come up with a reason to use, but you still kind of want to (because you like it or because you paid for it or whatever)? Here's your reason! I want to see how many pieces from different costume sets you can use in one costume, and still make it look cohesive! CLARIFICATION: Number of costume sets used will probably have no bearing on the voting. What I should have said was "Try using pieces you wouldn't normally use together." My bad.
Oh well, I still like it a lot, so I'll still use it

By the way, this was posted in 2010 on the ComicBookResources.com forums, so my take on it is :
The *New* Power Couple ? Meh, been there, done that. -
Quote:Actually, I changed *all* my costume pieces to something else...Originally Posted by Archiviste
Ok, I should be able to take Kreetch's original costume (which is a blend of the 4 "Tech..." sets) and eliminate parts from duplicate sets.

TO THE COSTUME CREATOR ! * plays Batman theme in my head *
I don't know if that will fit the theme, but I'll probably re-use this homage to Jack Kirby's mythos.Quote:Originally Posted by MissKyo
Faathim the Kind: Since we're working with a god, this theme will be myths and legends. Pick a character from mythology - any myth you like, from any culture - and dress up as that character!
(and if you play a comic books-related MMO and don't know who Jack Kirby is, shame, shame on you !)
Oh and speaking of re-using stuff, I found this from the last SSTFM...
