If Bosco comes back do I have to give back all the corndogs?
Welcome home Kurse -
Poor Trauma has been traumatized! And what do you mean you don't like the Vampyre Spa?
-
Ok, what's your favorite color? I'll get you a new, custom made straight jacket and a batch of cookies to hold just out of reach while you wear it. Because I'm the nice one.

I am enjoying watching these all come up. I'm not much good with costumes myself so I like seeing what other folks can do.
Only one minor aside. Smersh, why does Positron look so much like Smersh? -
I remember the avatar and the name. The costume still escapes me.
Anyway...*DROOL!!* I adore the whole pistols set! -
Austin CyberJocks was the first Meet & Greet. It was really supposed to be for Auto Assault but it seems the COH community came out in droves to the point where they ran out of "tickets" and just let everyone in.
I had so much fun meeting all these folks that I invited as many of them as I could find to do it again a month later at the Dave and Buster's here in Austin. We had a whopping 8 people show up.
I still try to organize COH-themed lunches about once a month and we have a solid core of locals who attend. If you happen to be in the area and want to come along please let me know and I'll add you to the list. Most recently we had a Rock Band party for Marti Gras. -
Oh no! Please pass along my deepest sympathies. I remember Shae from long ago.

Hi Grant!
I wanted to try and answer your questions from my own point of view, which may need a little background.
"How often are you able to join a team?"
Generally I can get into a PUG as often as I look for one.
"How often do you look for a team?"
Twice a month or so. Sometimes more.
"How quickly are you, on average, able to join a team?"
If I log in with the intent to team and I'm in the lower levels I can get a team inside of 15 min. If I'm in the higher levels it can take longer as there are fewer people there generally
"How often do you make your own team? Even if it's just to storm through a couple of newspaper/radio missions with some company."
About four or five times a month.
As much as I hate to admit it, I'm not a very good team player. Sometimes I'm grumpy and don't want to bother meeting new people. Sometimes I'm trying to challenge myself to solo a bit of an arc. Sometimes (most Fridays after 11pm CST) I'm intoxicated and a danger to a team. So when a person I don't know pops up in broadcast asking for a team, I'm fairly likely to tune them out. However, should that person actually send me a tell about a team, I try to join up or give a good reason why I can't right then (drunk, tornado, cat stuck in couch...).
So, I recommend if you *really* must have a team, ask someone in particular. Usually people are flattered to be asked and will respond favorably.
Also I notice your location. I've teamed with a lady in your timezone before and she commented that it was harder to find a team during her peak playing hours. I'm afraid Virtue is a little more EST/CST- centric then a few of the other servers. The only thing that I can recommend for that is to find a regular group or a very active global channel to work with. There are several of both though and I'm sure we can find one to fit you.
Good Luck! -
And please don't forget Virtue's finest player-run radio station, The Cape!

That...that was hilarious! Very well done! -
DJ Valor was having her Thursday night show in the ski chalet when these Rikti came in. They declined the fruitcake and the drinks they were offered and made several inflammatory comments. Included in these comments where the notes that the ski chalet is an excellent location for a scout post and that a mothership is on the way.
Valor is of the opinion that a major Rikti offensive is in the works, possibly focused on the ski chalet itself next Tuesday. She will keep her listening public updated as news occurs. -
Ok, I'll crank up the music, you get the comfy chairs and the rifles. We'll send out for pizza and take them out as they go for the delivery boy.
Make sure it's an anchovy pizza so they go for the bait. -
*tips D_R down the incinerator chute*
She was a bad egg anyway...

Come home soon fellow catperson! In the meantime...I'll keep your pillow warm.

Dang it!! I knew I was missing something important!
Happy Birthday Roy and I hope your new year will be extra shiny -
