8:30 PM Eastern is still 7:30 PM Central, or has this whole "Daylight Saving" thingie screwed me up?
I have a character, Dual Pistol/Devices that has male/female personas easily switchable.
And either TF would work.
"Combat Hero" is the character. -
Has an anniversary of his birth this week.
The question is:
Does 'he' remember?
Happy birthday dude, may your future be filled with the joy of not getting caught. -

Birthdays...

No, really. Where would we be? -

And while I live in Chicago, I couldn't recommend it as a stopover for this for any reason.
Although, Rosemont has convention facilities it is also run by a family interest (not "the family" of Chicago lore, but close).
Indianapolis is a good choice. -

Quote:From my Excel sheet I use to track just the XP/InfOriginally Posted by Kheldarn
When do I what?
Most of it was created piece by piece, and eventually turned into what it is now. As a matter of fact, I spent about 3 hours this afternoon revamping it. That was quite a chore. @_@
The forums have the problem, not me. AFAIC, there's only Badge-*****.
That is just to calculate the percentage of the current level the character is in.Code:=IF(IF(ISERROR(1-((VALUE(IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)),39149119,VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)))-Q2)/VLOOKUP(M2,exp!A:E,5,FALSE))),0,1-((VALUE(IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)),39149119,VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)))-Q2)/VLOOKUP(M2,exp!A:E,5,FALSE)))>1,1,IF(ISERROR(1-((VALUE(IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)),39149119,VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)))-Q2)/VLOOKUP(M2,exp!A:E,5,FALSE))),0,1-((VALUE(IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)),39149119,VLOOKUP(M2+1,exp!A:D,4,FALSE)))-Q2)/VLOOKUP(M2,exp!A:E,5))))
My current Excel Workbook has 28 tabs, which are:
Notes
Ouroboros (Badge Name, Restriction, level, etc.)
Rewards (When do I get my next Vet Badge?)
Powesets (Archetype, Primary, Secondary, Issue Released)
to-do (scratch pad)
Live Toons (Account, Server, Group, XP, inf, etc.)
Badges (count of earned badges broken down by badge category)
A tab for each badge category (AE, Market, Invention, etc)
Groups my characters belong to and their badges
Hero Zones connections and levels
Villain Zones connections and levels
The Exp breakdown (level, min, max, debt)
and a couple scratch tabs -
Quote:Offline tracking or only online tracking?Originally Posted by Eric Nelson
I think you first need to decide WHAT you're tracking. Different utilities track different data.
Personally, I track badges, using Badge-Hunter.com (in conjunction with HeroStats for verification), and that's all.
I look at my Excel workbook, and can plan what I want to go after for the next play session (badges/XP/inf).
Or is it a matter of knowing which character is where and under (if you have them) which of you many accounts?
I create a new character, who has the inf handy that I can get muled over to them?
How deep do you track? -
How do you do it?
In the 5 years of playing, I have used: Badge-Hunter, Titan, Excel, MySQL and others.
Right now I am experimenting with Bento, a Filemaker off-shoot for Macintosh.
What do you track? Badges? XP to level? Super/Villain Groups? Servers?
I guess it comes to how many or how good your computer is, if you can do it on a second computer or in a window?
HeroStats? Is it exportable?
How do you do it? -
Quote:You have to have time when you can start your computer in "safe mode", run the built-in defrag and can walk away.Originally Posted by Vega
Can anyone suggest a good defragmentation application? The one built into XP is kinda lacking.
Thanks in advance.
It is not a simple thing since Windows 95.
If you can boot from a CD that has a defragger, do it. You don't really want to boot from a disk and run defrag on the same disk. -
I have, for the last couple years, put out a simple thread in which I espoused thoughts that are geared towards the "holiday season".
They may have been purile, asking that you think back on your last year or life and wishing that you had a good or better year.
I was trying to think of something that I could do this year, to give you some sort of hope for next year, or to make your last year a little better.
I have failed.
I can not think of anything that can lift your spirits.
I can not think of anything that can make you look forward to the next year.
I can not think of anything that can even remotely make you look forward to another year.
Except.
Maybe.
There are times coming, when you are going to think that you are alone and no one will be there to help you in your darkest times. The time when you think everyone is against you, and no one could ever help.
In those times.
You are not alone.
You are never alone because someone knows who you are, who you want to be, and who wants you to be the best.
Then there is the damn scrapper that goes and aggros the other group.
Then you are are your own.
Happy Holidays. -

Nah Wolfie I think the point is, that most of us would far rather teamwipe ad infinitum with friends here on Protector, than deal with the same crap on another server where you know you're alone.

Way less.
Think it was $1.89 to the Philippines, so Canada should be less since they can drive there without flooding the engines. -
And today was the day my office started to test Gmail, so I had to sign up for a Gmail account.
At least it doesn't say "Gmail beta" anymore. -

If my mom's dog hasn't eaten it yet (she decided to sleep in the suitcase last night), I'll find it and send it on to you.

Although I don't play the character a lot, I do have one that hasn't been hit my the bat yet.
Not going to say it here, because it is funnier in game.
