    Server cap - not asked

    Infinite $$$ - not asked but we all know the answer to that one

    I thought the Boston Globe stated that PAX East was booked in the same venue for 2011 and 2012. If it was to move to the larger convention center in Boston it would have to happen in 2013.

    Regardless, it is very cool to have an event like this in my backyard!

    It took me a good moment to fully realize that you were not a very old and close friend of ours (And only after being face to face and looking you in the eye... that has never happened quite so strikingly).

    You were very kind about it... I hope Cylar didn't scare you too much with her excitement!
    Oh, no need for apologies - I totally got a kick out of it! If you folks ever make it back up to Boston give me a shout!
  4. It appears that several other threads (and websites) answered most of the questions here.

    The only real new news I can share is that there are no new strike forces coming soon, and War Witch loves and is listening closely to the EU players.

    On, and apparently a lot of folks (including Posi and a very excited female CoH player and her boyfriend) think I look like someone they know....
  5. A fun panel and a fun meet-n-greet. Based on the answers I received, I would not hold your breath for any new Strike Forces anytime soon....
  6. Nice to see all the questions across many different topics. I will do my best to ask as many as I can on Saturday.

    Now I just need to work on the wording of certain questions....
  7. C.H.A.O.S. has been a villaingroup on Triumph since 10/29/2005
  8. I am lucky to be going to both the Saturday PAX East CoX panel AND the meet-n-greet that night.

    What questions do you want answered? Post here and I will do my best to get answers.
  9. Good stuff here - ty to all for sharing.

    Heck, if they are on Triumph send me a tell and I will buy it directly.

    Yes, yes we do pay crazy $$$ for some of this stuff!

    I think I am only missing 6 items to get a complete set villain-side. Really just collecting them for fun. I would love to make a 'museum' in my base, but the current salvage storage limits per rack prohibit that from happening.
  12. Got a reply yesterday - I assume that volume is slowing down any responses to us.

    IMPORTANT ITEMS THAT I JUST FOUND OUT IN THE E-MAIL:

    Unfortunately, Jillian’s cannot provide us a connection for our credit card machine, so please be aware that all purchases for CoH merchandise will be CASH ONLY. We will have some change but recommend that you avoid bringing really big bills if possible.
    Looks like I am going to the event solo - looking forward to meeting you fine folks, having some fun and getting the scoop on GR!
  13. COoOOooOOL!

    Gotta get to work on this ASAP!

    I suppose I'll take a pair of heels just in case, though I'll feel utterly ridiculous wearing them with jeans and a t-shirt.
    I would worry more if you are a guy...and going by your comment about 'heels' I would say that you do not need to worry.

    edit - wow, poor grammar multiple times!

    Probably about 20 - 30 minutes to walk it. Not that close, but not too far either.

    Looking forward to the event - I wonder what bands are playing on Lansdowne Street that night?
  16. Still working on getting a pass to PaxEast via their forums - just waiting on some replys today.

    Looking forward to the meet-n-greet, but probably will be going solo as the wife is not too interested. However, I have no doubt that there will be lots of friendly folks to talk to / play pool with that night!
  17. No luck with the Saturday tix - wonder if any will be available for sale at the event....
  18. **** yeah!

    <----- location finally pays off!

    EDIT: Just guessing, but I bet the meet -n- greet is at Jillians in Kenmore Square.

    Once you get your first toon to 50 all the others are meaningless.

    The EATs aren't really all that anyway.
    The WS and AS I don't get at all. They are not fun to play either team or solo.

    I've tried a few times with both but by the time lvl 15 hits I'm done with them.

    I haven't hit 50 yet on my second account so it will be cool to run a PB duo.
    Huh???

    The Arachnos EATs are crazy fun to play - once you hit level 25 and can choose from multiple power pools the fun factor goes off the scale.

    Hero EATS - kinda meh to me....

    Trust me...there is no reason that any Dual Pistol toon currently on the Test Server will care about earning 2XP in March.
  21. Got there late BUT was able to get my yellow temp title.

    THANK YOU very very very much for running this event - great to see Triumph out and about in Cap!

    PS: Feel free to spawn Adamanster in Cap anytime that I am there!
  22. Well, I tried......although now I know what happened to the last Gunslinger!

    Yes, I find that excessive.
  24. Why do these things still have annoyingly-high health?

    Over 5,000 health on an object that does not move or fight back is just...annoying! Even worse, you can not even drop the mission from Black Scorpion.

    I understand that they were farmed and that is the reason they offer no XP or drops. However, requiring four of them to be defeated in one mission is just a frustrating exercise in button mashing for the sake of button mashing. I think it took my lvl 49 claws brute almost 5 minutes to take out one of them. Rinse, repeat, yawn....
