  1. uh... none? I'll be sad, but I'm not going to like, key their cars.

    Confessions

    Once, I was on a team and there were two empaths (me and another), the leader spontaneously kicked the other with no warning and said something that amounted to not wanting doubles when we all went 'wtf!'. We'd been having no problem on our missions before thatt.

    I spent the rest of the mission 'accidentally' letting him die and being really apologetic each time, and reporting back to the other empath.


    And this amounts my only semi-evil act in the game.
  3. I would, but I'd definitely hope they'd make all the character types a lot more soloable for it.

    Freem T Shirt

    I had the blue star t-shirt (and the liz shirt) from the pummit, but the start started scraping off

    In the end, I designed myself my own coh-related t-shirts. Um. I'll show you one, people I know in RL liked it so much they got their own copies even though they had no idea it was about my sg:



    I couldn't offer it for actual sale, because some people hadn't included a tos with an item I used for it so I didn't know if I had the right, and so it's a personal project.
  5. Has Nemesis ever had a special someone?

    Asking for a friend.
  6. Approve. This is the kind of romance I like. Getting along, shiny armour, and zombies.
  7. I was hoping so much he was gonna say BaBs was next for the tub.

    Hey, what are the odds that you'd be able to get the game installed and running on a PC at some point in the not-too-distant future?
    It's not the safest idea, but I would suggest mac people give a PC friend access briefly to do it.
  9. Here's pdfs of the stuff you just posted:

  10. Thank you for doing this!

    Driven to drink

    I had some whiskey, which isn't too out of character - I keep a bottle of it by my computer for when I have computer problems so I don't get angry fixing the problem.

    But I haven't been able to focus properly to write anything or study my textbooks since I found out and normally I'm a little busy beaver
  12. What were the plans for the Positron/Numina relationship?

    If Praetoria hadn't had to conclude, where would you have liked to have gone with it?

    Has there ever been a special someone for Nemesis?

    What were NPCs you had planned that we never got to see?

    What other villaingroups were in the works?
  13. The only thing in coh I hated enough I'd celebrate its death was early Hollows and the devs fixed that one years ago.

    yeah, I'm forcing myself to come down from my earlier pleading with... uh, I guess the plush Godzilla on my desk, in need of some sort of idol handy. It'd be absolutely wonderful but I can't bring myself to think it'll happen.
  15. I didn't always understand you, but whenever I got to see you speak (and the jokes your co-workers made), I thought you were pretty funny, so I liked you.

    Even if you had no soul.

    Vaya con dios, sir.
  16. oh please oh please oh please oh please

    and while I'm at it, oh please can we keep the devs too?
  17. Riley Grimm: She started as a monster hunter with a bad costume, who eventually became a shy but efficient empath defender with poorly controlled laser eyes. And from her sprung nearly a dozen other characters. Her siblings, her parents (former hero and villain), her and her siblings praetorian doubles, her twin brother the bots mastermind's robots as player characters. Her girlfriend (a heroine time travelled from the 60s). Her brother's love interest (a longbow). I don't know how much more would have spawned. She was just... she made stories come easily.

    She helped me create my first *my* supergroup, which was a low-income housing for superheroes that she was one of the landlords after a fellow hero (one of mine) suggested they buy an old base and fix it up. She taught me how to keep an eye on my team, and also a certain amount of Darwinism about scrappers that didn't understand stay with the team. She was my favourite.

    I had plans to remake her with i24, as a rad/martial combat blaster with sorcery and medicine pool, which was closer to how I'd always pictured her, but... I guess it wasn't to be.


    Thea Anastasis: My first character. Despite being around since the early 2000s, she's had the same default costume the whole time. Robotic arms, jeans, leather strapvest thing, face cover and goggles. And the giant [bleep]-off sword. Somehow she was just how I'd want her out of the box. It just took me a while to realize it. She languished for years until my friends started a thing called the gravy train and I had an interest in playing her again.

    And suddenly she was the easiest, funnest character to play. There was no challenge I couldn't face with her. I could explore the game at my leisure, finally. I didn't have to rely on others.

    She was my most played character. And I intend to finish my goal with her: Doing every single hero arc I can access via ouro.

    Oh, who she was: A government experiment, escaped, lived on the streets, became a skull's girlfriend, took up with a Hellion, and both of them defected to the hero side during the Rikti War. It's also where she lost her arms, but her robotic ones are just as good.

    Benedict Jones: He was my partner toon. I played him with with my sister for most of his career, it was incredibly painful as we were NOT well-suited to each other's styles at our current skill level, he was a sonic/fire blaster, she was a dark/dark scrapper, and after that he went on to become partners with a friend's character and rocketed his way to fifty, they were such a good team. He's and Thea above were the other two landlords of the four landlords of my supergroup.

    Thea was his girlfriend (he was the Hellion she ran off with) and my practice writing a love story. It was fun. I even had sims2 versions of them, with their adopted kid and at least I'll always have the sims. Right? Right.
  18. Were there any new zones planned?

    You're a good man, Zwill. I'll miss you.
  20. If you can get this to that point, I'll contribute to fundraising.

    Also, thank you.

  22. I like 'em. They look much more fitting with the rest of the universe now.
  23. Boy Reaper: LOVE your Luminary. I think I may use that as a character idea sometime, if that's okay?

    Goodbye for now

    That sucks. Good luck to you in the future!
