    Thanks to Angel Red for pointing out the packs have been confirmed.

    Say hello to:
    • Cyborg Pack
    • Magic Pack
    • Science Pack
    • Good vs Evil Pack
    • Wedding Pack
    • Mac Item Pack
    • 30-Day Jetpack

    Good for them, but I don't think there's one on there that I don't already have that I truly want. Still, hope there's something on there for you!

    Also is funny to consider that Leo and Nolan look kinda alike.
    I'd like to see a link to this.
  5. I think that this is what's most likely...

    ... it just occured to me that Cyber Monday may well indicate that only the Tech/Science packs are getting discounted.

    wow. That took me way too long to consider.

    I know some of these things don't include all the packs... Not sure if there usage of "booster packs" here is all inclusive or not.
    There's no word which packs are included. My personal and unfounded speculation is that it will be dang near all of them save for the more recent ones that are already doing well (Such as the Origin Booster).

    I have a growing obsession with low-cost high-quality games that come out. As long as games are coming out for the cost of the Party Pack, I can't honestly say that purchasing the Party Pack is an investment as good as or equal to one of those games.

    Now, I strongly endorse the Booster pack as a marketing strategy, as I support City of Heroes. My money's going to be thrown into this sale with wild abandon. I'm not trolling; I'm trying to make my opinion known for producers as they go forward.

    When the City of Heroes Boosters go 50% off, the Party Pack will only be 50% more expensive than 50% of the population would pay for it!

    ---

    Also, I've actually wanted a couple of the boosters for a while but am, frustratingly, at a point financially where spending $10 on something is "splurging". This will come right after my holiday bonus. Talk about a cash-based catharsis.

    I intend to buy all the Boosters I'm missing besides the Valentine's Day and the Party Pack. The Valentine's Day may get a reprieve for the veils and wedding themed characters I could make. The Party Pack will now and forever have "What were they thinking!?" knife-dug into its forehead by Bradd Pitt in a bad and overblown accent.
  11. From this moment forward, by reading this thread you risk not only spoilers of Inception, but meta-spoilers. See, the thrill of Inception's ending is that it's very confusing and vague. Some people (like me), can't settle for that. They must know.

    ***SPOILERS***
    Michael Caine has your back. On the other side of this link is not just the definitive answer, but evidence that it is correct.

    Enjoy and discuss!

    Oh yes! This is true.

    Long live Marcian, violently wrested heir to the throne of Samuraiko!

    Though I'd rather resources not be spent on weather (even if I would enjoy it), I can sagely nod with this wisdom.

    Not for my fan fiction, it doesn't!
  16. I also feel that this is laziness! Weather is important to immersion. The more every "day" is the same, the less I'm pulled out of the game. This is a City, not a holodeck. Let's have some rain in spring, some snow in winter! Can you imagine the snow on The Hollows or clouds hanging more often than not over Baumton? It would be a really cool effect that could subtly flesh out the lore and feel of the world.


    Now, I don't feel it's worth the technical effort, but I was instructed by the willing hot dog to "Disagree!", so I did. Hope that helps!

    Well, if it turns out that it will have been then it will turn out that I won't have been, and then you will have been inaccurately negative, wouldn't you have?
  18. I just started watching this right now and... I want Conjunction Junction on iTunes. Now.

    The way the show owns up to its own flaws is one of its biggest redeeming qualities.

    "Come on guys! There has to be a Journey song we haven't done yet!"

    Edit: Really glad that Mike Change got another dance number. He's really great at physical comedy. If you really want to see him bring down the house, watch The LXD. There, he plays Elliot. In that world, dancing can generate Chi. Elliot keeps up not because he can dance, but because he found the enchanted shoes of a better dancer. It's surprisingly awesome and he's easily my favorite character.

    Anyway, still watching...

    Next update! Glad to see that they remembered the best part of this show: Petty people doing petty things for petty reasons. The war on Tater Tots continues.


    Edit: Wow, has it been this long since we've had a number that was Rachel Berry showing off her incredible talent purely for the sake of showing it off? I don't even know if we've had one "pure joy" moment with her all season.

    Ironik's right: This episode's awesome.

    Note: Good heavens, is Kurt ever gay...

    Note: Holy hell, Will is evil. "I'm sorry I slept with you. I was vulnerable and you yourself were a mistake in my life. Leave and never come back." How selfish can he get?

    Note: Is this absolutely ludicrous (in a good way) Mash Up the first confirmed song for Nationals? If so, it's exciting to see that begin to build up!

    Note: Is it weird that I could tell which writer did this episode based on how much I liked this episode? Since it was "Quite a bit", I knew it was Ian Brennan.

    --------
    Regarding the school budget: It's been referenced since very early in the series that the school has a staggering and overly comedically sized budget that has just been misdistributed. It can be assumed that more and more of the money is going to the Glee club.
  19. I can say definitively that it will not have gone live yesterday.
  20. We go through this almost every week, nytflyr... where did you last put the cars? What were you doing when you had the cars? Did you leave the cars in Europe?

    Cars 2 Trailer

    I would say that this is the stupidest trailer I've ever seen, but Pixar did it. As such, I'm bringing a box of Kleenexes for my surely weeping eyes, popcorn for when I laugh out loud, and an iPod to tweet several variations of "This is so amazing!"

    A good list. I agree with it entirely. If I assassinate with Steel Claw with a claymore do I inherit his title?
