  1. "Some food for thought.

    Statesman notes the full title of Expansion #3 is A council of war. The indefinite article that starts this may be significant.

    The correct title of chapter 12 of Treasure Island is Council of war without the "A".

    On the other hand, chapter 14 of P.G. Wodehouse's Love among the Chickens is called A Council of War

    I don't know if this tiny little difference is significant, save for one thing. The title of Chapter 15 of Wodehouse's book is The Arrival of Nemesis. "

    Now that's eerie.
  2. LONG SKIRTS FOR GUYS!

    I'm serious. The tsoo get them, why don't we?

    Hakuma pants and pantskirts too!
  3. Hmm. I'd bet on within the week. the 3-4 weeks figure is WAAAY off base. Really, the only thing that's yet to be tested is the new chat system, which hasn't gotten past Q&A yet. Everything else is either an isolated issue, or fixed at this point, and more than likely these small issues are already fixed in an internal build. 'Course, they might hold it in test longer because of things like the pet changes to get more user feedback before going live.
  4. "Missions that have given badges:
    Negotiator - Clockwork vs Skulls mission
    Spelunker - Rescue the fortune teller
    Spirit Warrior - Tsoo Vs. Banished Pantheon (20-24)
    Pwnz - Beat PwNxx0rz! Freakshow boss on that mission (20-24) <- missed out on this but helped a friend finish the missiona nd he got the badge.
    Mystical Savior - One of the Warriors missions (not sure which one)"

    Redeemer - The Alexander/Warrior arc.
  5. Just some clarification...

    Dark Mystic - 309yds north of the Didos View marker ontop of the cinema at loc 1677.4 x 5.8 x 2834.4
  6. The Alexander Pravidlis (sp? the Warrior one) mini-arc nets you the Accomplishment badge "Redeemer"
  7. Here's the descriptions for all the badges I have, save someone the trouble of doin' all these later

    Bonecrusher: You're all about knocking heads and beating Skulls

    Finder: You are beginning to uncover the mystery that is the Lost

    Gearsmasher: You have learned that the smallest gear can power the greatest menace, and have taken steps to stop the Clockwork menace.

    Gravedigger: You have learned to put the Embalmed Cadavers in their place-- 6 feet under the ground.

    Hellspawned: You've whupped those Hellions but good. (actual quote)

    Soul Binder: You have uncovered the secret of the Circle of Thorns mages, that they are ancient spirits who inhabit the stolen bodies of their victims.

    Undefeated: Here is where Sirrocco stood against, and fell to, the Rikti invaders.

    Silent Sentinel: In the 1950's the hero called 'Gargoyle' would stand watch over the city from this spot.

    Hero Corps Insider: Hero Corps maybe controversial in their methods but they can have good information for aspiring heroes.

    Patriot: You have stood next to the ol' red, white, and blue over City Hall.

    Top Dog: The top of Atlas' statue is the first place many flying heroes will go.

    Phalanxer: Before Baumton had it's (actual spelling) 'accident,' the Freedom Phalanx called this building home.

    Regal: King Mihenra, a self-proclaimed warlord from the Netherworld, attempted to seize control of Paragon City, only to be defeated by Positron on this very spot.

    Destined for Valhalla: Valkyrie proved herself to Positron by battling the Clockwork King on this spot. Although she did not succeed in defeating him, he was severely damaged and Clockwork activity came to a halt for several weeks afterward.

    Inmate: Zigursky Penitentiary is where all criminals, both mundane and super-powered, end up.

    Seeker of the Unknown: This tomb is used to represent the thousands of heroes who gave their lives in the Rikti War.

    Cairn Warder: This cairn was once the location of a rift to the Netherworld, but has since been closed.

    Undammed: Funding has recently been exhausted in the effort to rebuild the Paragon City dam.

    Newsman: The Theodore Knight building was home to many Super Groups in the years before the Rikti War.

    Faultless Mystic: Ley Lines are powerful forces of mystical energy that crisscross the planet. Paragon City's proximity to Ley Line crossings makes it a prime location for magical villain supergroups.

    Apex: Apex tracked Dr. Vahzilok down to this location, but interference from the Circle of Thorns prevented him from capturing the mad scientist.

    Foggy: This building is in the final stages of preparing suites for the use of the city's Super Groups.

    Chaotician: Professor Xaos brought Paragon City to its knees shortly after the Rikti War with his Mandelbrot Device. Synapse and Positron were able to work together for once and saved the city.

    Tank: M1, a hero from World War I, is honored today with a statue in Galaxy City.

    Land Locked: This lock holds back the waters of Eastgate bay, and has been the target of many super criminals bent on flooding Galaxy City.

    Crey Havoc: Crey had a facility in Independence Port for several years, but an industrial accident has permanently closed it.

    Vigorous: Sister Psyche's greatest nemesis was the insane Malaise. When she finally apprehended him, she found a confused soul in search of release. Using her mental powers, she switched Malaise's dual personalities, bringing the benevolent one to dominance. Then she took him under her wing for observation.

    Summoned: Statesman broke up a ritual by the Circle of Thorns members that would have bolstered their ranks exponentially.

    Upgraded: Kord Technologies makes its home in this building, and Tony Kord frequently uses his personal helicopter to commute to work.

    Mystic King: Ley Lines are powerful forces of mystical energy that crisscross the planet. Where they meet is called a nexus, and all magic is stronger for miles around.

    Keen Sighted: Manticore, one of the Surviving Eight, was first sighted at this location after keeping to the shadows for months.

    Smokey: King Garment Works dominated the Kings Row economy for years. These smoke stacks were part of their manufacturing facility.

    Portal Parter: This R&D facility suffered one too many accidents and has since fallen into ruin.

    Bridge: The territory around this bridge has been hotly contested turf between the Skulls and Hellions for some time now.

    Avatar: Avatar, a hero in Paragon City in the late 1950's, had a statue erected for him after his death. The gangs have not been kind to this memorial.

    Around the Bendis: This old boathouse used to be a popular spot in Perez Park, but since the gangs moved in it has been abandoned.

    Doc Whedon: This old dock used to be the most popular make-out spot in paragon City. Today, however, it is more a place of violence than of live.

    Justice Avenger: This fountain was a gift to the city, donated by the billionare playboy Justin Sinclair.

    Purifier: Defiler, an evil spirit brought forth by the Devouring Earth, was defeated on this spot by Ms. Liberty... with a little help from MAGI.

    Solace: This was the location of Dr. Anguish's secret lab, uncovered by the Freedom Phalanx when he threatened to blow up Paragon City with a black market Soviet nuke.

    Dauntless: Dauntless was Galaxy Girl's sidekick until he died in battle, defending his mentor with his last breath.

    Healing Node: The MedCom is a teleportation network that can send fallen heroes directly to the hospital for treatment. This node is the center of the network; the other nodes are on the outskirts of the city.

    Hero Corps Recruit: Hero Corps is not only a Corps of people, but also a Corporation, selling their super-powered services to those willing to foot the bill.

    Nimble Mynx: This spot is where Synapse first found Mynx and began training her.

    Bright Star: The first Luminary used her light-based powers to disrupt the formation of a large portal to the Rikti homeworld on this spot.

    Conjunction Junction: This junction was the first target of the Freakshow when they started their campaign of mayhem. Statesman and the rest of the Freedom Phalanx were able to stop their plan before it could be fulfilled.

    Meltdown: Covert Rikti strike teams have attempted to destroy the Terra Volta reactor on more than one occasion.

    Nervous Dreck: Dreck, the leader of the Freakshow, was brought to justice on this spot by Statesman. His time in jail was short, however, as he broke out just two weeks later.
  8. AtlasParkTour1 - Silent Sentinel - -607.7 x 70.3 x 1888.3, 203 yds NE from the hospital on the north face of the building.

    Just clarifying
  9. EDIT: Eep, someone beat me to it.
  10. Ah, I got it. Didn't even look at the spoiler text :O!
  11. Wow. All your posts are censored too O_o

    I'm having trouble finding Conjunction Junction in Terra Volta. Anyone have some more clear directions?

    EDIT: Found it, confusing directions.

    TerraVoltaTour1 - Conjunction Junction - in the NW corner of Coroman Manufacturing (just before Raysun Petroleum) you'll see a wall and three pipes going into it. At the base where the wall meets the pipes (near a black patch) is the badge.
  12. If you go to the Upgraded one (The helipad) its within 230 yards of it on a rooftop. I think it might be to the SW. Or maybe to the NW. It's one of the lower roofs though, with nothing else on it except the badge.
  13. Clarification on the Boomtown - Regal badge

    BoomtownTour2 - Regal - is located in a street tunnel in the west part of "Powderkeg". 683 yards from the powder keg waypoint, inside the tunnel, in the center divider. Just run along the center divider (with the columns) and you'll get it.

    It took me a few minutes to find that one, so I figured I'd save others the hassle too
