Ran it on Justice. It was actually FUN. Great work!

My Fire dominator enjoyed burning everyone's much beloved Dillo. the only thing in the entire arc I didn't hold within seconds was the final Manticore encounter. He held me through domination.

Quote:You. Run the villain arc too.(Playing Devil's Advocate)
Are the villains' male enemies (the heroes) somewhat chivalrous/chauvinistic? If so, going after the female proteges of the male enemies might be more tactically sound, to enrage/weaken the judgement of the male enemies. This is quite eeevil, which would make sense.
Also, Eva's suggestion that 'maybe if she had had magic blood, etc.,' - is it possible that there may be more to the reasons for these actions that we have yet to learn? Could it be an onion, rather than an apple?

All that being said, I agree that I think we've had enough 'fridging', so to speak. -
Quote:Run the villain arc.Yes, she should have, and that bugged me too.
And yes, her death is a fridging. It was clearly set up to upset Statesman and discredit Manticore. If they had killed her for her "magic blood" or because she knew something they didn't want her to talk about, it wouldn't have been, but they didn't.
Incidentally, that page the OP linked to isn't really a good representation of the Stuffed in the Fridge trope, as it simply lists all the examples of female characters in comics having bad things done to them. The trope is more specific than that. It applies only to women having bad things done to them for the sole purpose of motivating another character. In other words, if the victim hadn't been important to that other character, they would have been left alone. Ms Liberty's "death" in the RSF is another in-game example; we beat her up for the sole purpose of getting Statesman to fight us, and he only does this because she's personally important to him. If we'd beaten her up to get Longbow off our backs and someone with no personal relationship to her had decided that we were too dangerous for anyone else to handle, send in the Freedom Phalanx, the trope wouldn't apply. -

Super Soakers. I had two of the REAL Super Soakers back when they could be charged from the hose. They were awesome. Left them out over winter plastic cracked blah blah. They're like $80+

Quote:Problem with eyepokes.They had a number of powers that would need to be worked into their set.
For example, if they hastily donned women's clothing as a desperate disguise, every bad guy in a three-mile radius would stop whatever they were doing to hit on them. If Curly was involved, the head baddie would want to marry him. This power was absolutely impenetrable for about 5 minutes, after which it failed totally.
The Stooges could also get an Assassin's Strike off on any sentry as long as they all dressed like Santa Claus. Everyone who saw them could not help but swear that this was the Real Santa (notwithstanding that there was THREE of him) and look into his bag of gifts. *BONG!*
The Stooges also had a variety of blasts available to them, such as Seltzer Bottle and their dreaded Nuke, Rain of Pies.
A lot of folks would cough up 800 points for such goodness!

Quote:Seems like it would fit nicely in an UN set.That's a good question. I'm not really sure, but I would guess the devs would rule something like: It would be forced to cast, but as it had no legal target, it would either sit there for the remainder of the game and do nothing at all, or else immediately fizzle and go to the graveyard.
I doubt a card like this would get past beta testing as it looked. Quite possibly it would be changed into an Aura Enchantment from the get-go, with the card rules stating that it targets Thread artifacts that are in a graveyard. -
But do you need a legal target if there was say.. an effect that directly played it?

Quote:So that means if it isn't cast and is just put into play it doesn't work?Errata: "When Thread Necromancy is cast, it becomes an Aura Enchantment with "Enchant Artifact". Put target Thread card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control and with Thread Necromancy attached. When Thread Necromancy is sent to the graveyard from the battlefield, destroy enchanted artifact."
The MtG dev team. You gotta love 'em. -
Solo a harder AV or GM.
The higher level they are the more difficult.
I'd try the Rikti GM on the mothership. I don't think I've ever heard of anyone soloing it. -
Happy Belated to Arwen and Lucas..
Arwen shares a birthday with my mother o.o
Also; mine is tomorrow... just saying. -

Wow. the comments on that article are.. Well they make me question a lot of things....
