Trouble is, the moment the game closes, the number of players who will return to it is going to theoretically decline. The more time that passes, the more CoH players will move onto something else and risk not being wrangled back. The value of the IP in the eyes of other businesses will only get staler the longer it sits in the back of the pantry.[/QUOTE]

I think they should form a player owned MMORPG. Not sure how it would work, but if we could let our community donate to a PayPal account to buy code from NC soft. Arbitrarily set it at $10 a share or something... I'd chip in a couple hundred up front and continue to pay my $15 a month until the pot got sweet enough for NC soft to notice

I saw a bbc special once about the flu. It said that nearly half of all alleged cases of the flu were actually food poisoning. =/ My flu broke after 6 days. Today, day 7, is that lovely stage of what was lovingly referred to as "lung oysters" in my youth. A week of flu is highly uncommon for me, so I pronounce this strain as virulent. I read an article in NatGeo once about The Chemistry of Love, and it claimed that one of the primary attactors of people was our sense of smell. It said that, though we cannot consciously notice the smell, a very strong determiner of our attraction to others is that we can smell differences in immune systems. We are attracted to people who fill gaps in our own immune systems. So, Ex Libris and Janlee, be careful! Your flu immunity may make you very popular indeed! (i noticed the effect on ExLibris) Of course, I find any female that can solo on invincible irresistable.

I'd like to thank all the NC Soft people that were at the show, you all represented your products with professionalism and good nature. I think we'll pick up quite a few new people thanks to your presence there.

to my knowledge I have not spread the plague. I have run too many Vahz mish to participate in such villiany! hehe. It really is neet to have faces to go with the names. I had a long chats with several people, but, alas, the Long Island Tea seems to have effected my temporary data storage routines. It was a good time though, to be amongs heroes. NC soft had a great booth! I must admit, I'm sorely disappointed in what has become of D&D these days. It's more structured than a marching band! I enjoyed playing, because it's been so long, but that's about it. I was suprised to find that I'm not the only one who just can't play a villian on principle! hehe I thought I was just weird(er) than everyone else.

I made it out to the get together at Hard Rock as well, I think I was the sole representative of Trumph and Freedom! It was a blast to actually get to hang out with a room FULL of heroes. I enjoyed meeting you all. (I now have a shiney, spankin new toon on Virtue in need of SG btw =) Ascending Star) Later all

so, who else brought home the GenCon flu?
