Quote:How many Doyle stories have you read with Mycroft in them? I, too, was worried when I heard about the casting but he carried the role nicely.Originally Posted by Dante
EDIT: One thing that did bug me was the casting of Stephen Fry. Although he would have been brilliant in the role in a different version of Sherlock Holmes, he seemed a bit out of place in this one. Still magnificent though.
While I run hot and cold with Guy Ritchie, these movies have been slavishly exacting to the source material and for that alone, they are awesome. The fact that it's just a damn fine movie is icing on the cake.
I cheered out loud in the theatre when Moriarty's book showed up. I was alone. I was alone on most of the inside jokes, and that bothered me. I get the feeling that most people haven't read Sherlock Holmes. Ever. -

Chad you are still a legend. Thank you.

Anything else? General butt-scuttle is that SSA isn't going up today.

The LFG Queue does not work for me on any of my characters, for any of the content, except for Incarnate Trials. So it's still useless.

Bill!

An actual event that I celebrate. Huzzah, indeed. Good show.

The real inequality here is the lack of twinks.

The LFG tab does not allow some of my characters to select DFB or the Holiday Trial. It may not allow any of my characters to select any trial, but it's been a while since I've lead an Incarnate Trial.

Yes.

Being involved in all the inside jokes is better.

Wasn't the official explanation actually that it was a copyright issue?

Working the beta boards/beta build is like working in college radio all over again. You know exactly what is going to be all the rage (or nerdrage) many months later.
The card game and Carnie Costume set were my current interests. These days, mostly just the card game. -
Bacon carrot biscuits, every day.

Everything is working fine for me so far.

Those are VIP players who have set the board preferences to indicate that they are VIP players.

So why do folks still have white names? We can't have that many Preems on the boards, can we?
EDIT: Interesting. I'm gold on login, and white on the boards. Maybe everything happened behind the scenes and I can still control how my name is displayed... -

This is ridiculous. All the sadists and masochists I know are really great people. You make them sound like monsters.

Quote:That was me. I said it. Commons. I am an active participant in Trials, even though I still think the "participation system" sucks.Originally Posted by UberGuy
Strawman. What was being objected to was the explicit link between "I'd like my expected reward" and "otherwise I'll be leaving".
I think all of us would probably prefer the reward to work as expected. Not all of us will be leaving over it. I'm supposing there must be some element of "last straw" involved that's not explicitly stated in this thread.
On topic, I believe that whoever said the Rare/VR reward was not implemented is talking out of their posterior orifice. Since that change was posted in the notes, I have only gotten Rare or VR rewards from it, as have everyone I have direct interactions with who has played the trial. However, I have seen people who I don't know directly report getting Uncommon or Common rewards in the trial. In most cases, those people were inactive for large parts of the trial, or they crashed and missed AV fights. This, combined with the redname posts trying to clarify that the Rare/VR are for "active participants" in the trial suggest strongly that getting anything less than a Rare is due to the "participation system". In essence, not getting a Rare may be the modified UGT's version of giving you 10 Threads.
I'd be interested to know if the folks who have been getting non-Rare rewards are playing MMs or support characters who don't attack enemies much. I have seen at least one poster reporting not getting Rares on their MM. -
But you need to find one of him and Nalrok next to each other.

Don't worry, I'm sure Paragon Studios will release a press release about the twist two to three weeks before that content goes live.
