  1. In the time it took you to shoot that rooftop shot, you would've been AS'd.

    Just sayin.

  2. I have to say this. It pains me to say this.

    I've seen people make "OMGAWESOME" costumes that are infinitely worse than those. Tell your boy he's on the right track.
  3. I'm going to see if we can get this thread stuck to our boards so we can see what people really have in the Rogue Isles. Here's my list as of Saturday, December 5, 2009:

    Cathzarro - Brute - Dark Melee / Energy Aura
    Rod Charger - Brute - Electric Melee / Shield Defense
    Coco the Destroyer - Corruptor - Dark Blast / Pain Domination

    I can already see this causing additional Oil Slick Arrow problems.
  6. Next time you get one of these Gav, I'm gonna need you to give it to me.

    Concerning this tangent, none of that has to be done.

    Give players an opportunity to do it, and the only expenses are giving prizes to players and buying the ad time.

    Best statement about farming ever.

    Of all time.

    I'd take it a step further, but I don't want to diminish the comparison. Nice job Eps.

    I'd like to echo this. On Triumph's first villain run, having to locate the Winter Lord spawn was the only complaint I had. If we could get a locator like the Deadly Apocalypse GM, that would be excellent.

    Gratz on the new leadership roles you 2!

    That was the talk of HeroCon.

    Of course, there was the "He's dead . . . or is he?" thing.

  14. Um . . . then you are arguing semantics.

    I used the wrong word. The announcements said "maintain an active account". I'm not wanting to make you feel bad, but it was very clear from the beginning.

    Yes it was. Every announcement said "keep your account active from August 15, 2009 to November 15, 2009".
  16. Question:

    How many constant -tohit debuffs were on Reichs in your other runs? I never saw him use the stun last night, but he barely ever touched me the entire time anyway.

    It's not a requirement, but I'd recommend bringing a minimum of 2 rads on each Masters run for this one.

    Auto Jump ?

    ++up is the command. A bind isn't so bad if you want it long term, though.

    /bind [insert key here with no brackets] ++up

    My bind is:

    /bind v ++up
  18. . . .

    Just wondering if anyone who got the badge last night was going to talk about it.

    When in heavens name are the diff levels going to be fixed for SF/TF'S?????

    As leader of the Handprints SG which spans both sides I have to say that the result of the wimpy diffs has had a DRAMATIC negative effect on members, seeing many long term players leave the game and those that are staying getting fed up of running flashbacks for (certainly on Villains side) poor merit reward numbers just so that they can play their toons against foes that are worthy.

    To be quite frank I could not care less whether people get their MO badges on a -1 diff if this is the alternative, obviously I would rather they got them and had a bit of a challenge but this 'fix' is killing the enjoyment of the game for a lot of my members (of which until recently I had over 90 individual accounts).

    Gone are the days of Handprints LGTF races where 16 people would rock up and do the TF on 5th diff with no ghosting to see which team could go fastest. I16 was a truely wonderful thing, the super SK system making organising events so much easier but now their seems to be no point that it is easier to get teams without struggling with half the team not being able to get an SK when the SF/TF we want to run is just too damn easy. For a brief while we enjoyed the new diff levels bringing us new challenges, but this was snatched away because a few could get a badge too easily leaving the rest of us hard core players floundering and wondering why we bothered slotting our toons at all if all we are going to fight are whites and yellows.

    Please, please, please, please fix this issue before we loose anymore people to boredom and easy repetitive play!!!!

    Rant over
    Instead of ranting, you could get a little creative to see there IS a temporary solution for those who just want a little bit more challenge.

    Turn on the following 2 options when starting the TF/SF:
    • Enemies buffed
    • Players debuffed
