Just wanted to pop in and say thanks to everyone -players, organizers, and cheerleaders- for all of the fun. Everyone was very chill and the good sportsmanship held through the entire league. Looking forward to the next one. Good fighting, all!

Uhm....I don't know what you're trying to say, honestly.


Prior to i13...what else did you find on the pvp field?


[u]Blasters[u]:

Fire/Em
Ice/Em

and a couple */Dev's of that variant.

[u]Defenders[u]:

Rad/Psi

Empathy/*

[u]Scrappers[u]:

Spine/Regen

BS/Regen

*Nothings changed here...go go regin...

[u]Tankers[u]:

Ice/Em

Invln/Em -or- SS

[u]Stalkers[u]:

*Spines get's an honorable mention


[u]Brutes[u]:

Em/ELA

Em/FA

[u]Corruptor[u]:

Ice/Cold

Fire/Cold

Dark/Cold

Rad/Therm

(Corrs were undoubtfully probably the "most" diverse back then and they still are...only most Corr builds suck now)

[u]Dominators[u]:

Mind/Fire


.....just to name a few.....


......so....honestly, if you ask me...things are no different now...than they were then. We simply have a few slightly "different" FoTM's now, that's all. In the end, you'll always have your FoTM's: the toons that will perform the "best" in most situations. That, is a given, and almost completely unavoidable. I don't think anything has changed about that at all.


I'd go as far as to say that there are WAY more "viable" pvp toons available to us these days (viable meaning: you can take them into any given pvp zone and at least do decently, even versus certain FoTM's) than there were in the past. Honestly, in the past, if you weren't one of the "top 2" FoTM/OP'd setups of your AT....you simply weren't worth crud. In fact....I distinctly recall people "LOLing" at anyone who wanted to "venture outside the box" on pvp toons. It just didn't happen often.


Not that it happens "often" anymore either, but I do think the "potential" for it to happen more often is definately more here now than it was before.

Quote Pyramid, activate!

I've always done extremely well with my pimped-out Fire/Fire, in the zones and in the Arena. Won a few tournies with that toon, as well.

Skill > Slotting

Even a non-Fotm toon (within limits; we're not looking for totally gimped beyond reason here) can beat a Fotm toon, if the hands at the controls are good enough.

Team LOL RPVP vs Team h4z-b33|\|z

Win goes to Team LOL RPVP. (We're not 5-0, IIRC)

Good fighting, all, and here's looking towards the for fun match we're about to have as I post this!

Go nuts, as per the title.

I zone a lot, and I do the Arena (newly created and thriving Pinnacle League, as an example).

So, something that'd let me play out my full potential in those two settings. Something that fits in Phase, if at all possible (lolphase, etc etc).

That's it, and thanks in advance.

Just for giggles.

This post...confuses me. O.o

Wednesday the 1st, I think 9:30'ish or so? (Maybe earlier)

Neuronia was there, Buck officiated...

I won't claim that my memory is perfect (alcohol has seen to that), but I distinctly remember fightin' y'all in the Troll Caves map, with 12-3 being the final tally. At least that's what my teammate's screenshot recorded :P

Do correct me if I'm misremembering something, though.

ITT: I'm awesome, an' y'all should get down with the awesome.

Rescheduled result:

Team 12: Team LOL RPVP defeated Team 5: Love the Turtles

(Anyone from Team Working As Intended, please contact me in-game so that we can schedule our match before Sunday. With the 4th coming up, it might be difficult.)

Death of John Murdock

Evenin’, folks. Recently I joined a great SG of role-players/story tellers, located on CoH’s Pinnacle server; the CCCP (http://www.cccpgroup.us/ ). Through this super group, I’ve developed a character persona known as John Murdock, along with a story arc based on his interaction with other characters in both the CCCP and the Role-Playing Congress (http://www.4-thirty-5.com/rpc/).

My original ideas concerning how I would retire JM once he reached security level 50 quickly fell to the wayside after I began truly developing him. At this point, he is dying from excessive use of his powers. Faced with his imminent demise, JM chose to instead merge with a Kheldian, in order to continue his existence.

Now, instead of working out the “endgame” in prose, I’ve decided to allow it to play out as a live RP event. There will be several main and secondary characters, performing live and scripted RP. Since this is going to a live event, RP’ers all welcome to attend as an audience . A lot of folks have invested substantial amounts of time and effort in this, so we don’t really want any interruptions.

Time: 9pm eastern---8pm central, Wednesday, June 22

Place: Event will start atop of the Galaxy City Arena, with the second act taking place at the base of the steps in front of Atlas’ statue.

Etiquette: Spectators are asked to remain on the outskirts of the action, and to keep respectfully quiet. This means, don’t land right in the middle of things. Don’t pipe in with witty comment. You are going to be furniture for this performance, folks. Live with it.

Cast:
John Murdock played by…er, Me
Seraphic Flame played by…Mercedes Lackey
Home World played by… Stephan Zajac
Belladonna Aura played by…Mercedes Lackey
Archangel Michael played by…CuppaJo
Blaze Phoenyx played by…eh, Me, again

There it is, folks. Please, send any questions or comments you have to thoreauswaitingroom@gmail.com. Hope to see some of the community there. Later, y’all.

Thanks to all of the members of the CCCP and the RP Congress, who’ve proven to be a wonderful group of folks.

A special thanks goes to Mercedes Lackey, Adrian Drake, Dennis Lee, Steve Libbey, and Stephan Zajac; great writers, without whom I couldn’t have taken this project as far as I have. And thanks to developer extraordinaire CuppaJo, for taking the time to lend a hand.

Like I said, any questions, comments, critique, etc, can be directed towards my e-mail or through here. Thanks, all.
