  1. Sorry I missed; don't count on me until (likely) I buy a new MB. Apparently, the one year warranty on my current one was actually the declaration of lifespan. :-S
  2. To Freedom:
    The first and only true Prime! May thy heroes always be, uh. 'Primal!'

    (Old screenshot proof: http://www.myrdinn.com/HeroesNVillia...nshot_0411.jpg Next day or two, Prime was renamed to "Freedom." Prime was the name of the original beta server, back in the day. when we had one server)

    They can also lead SFs/TFs. My Rogue was able to run a Kahn right before this event.

    Now, if I could only find a 'Cuda for her....
  4. Blueside choices from Myrdinn:

    Myrdinn (en/en blaster)
    Angus (SS/Will tank)
    Absolom (sword/regen scrapper)
    Caitlin (emp/mind controller)

    And, ah
    Myred should be fifty by then. She's a rogue, so...

    Stf pugs

    I think the one good thing to come from this mess of PUG STF's has been the utter destruction of the concept of a low number of builds that can successfully finish this TF

    I don't think I have been on a 'standard' STF on any of the four hero toons I ran. The LRSF was even more widely varied, and quite a bit of fun for my corr.
  6. Heh.

    Weakest team I was on, still held together and finished.
    Sure, the tank was a fire tank. Sure he had no resists other than ninety to fire.

    But, with two emps (I was one) and a rad healing him, it only took about forty minutes to finish LR (thirty-four ish to take care of two red towers, a yellow, and the green, but, hey. Six on LR).

    Love the heart they had, though!

    Anova/ancova

    So thinking about making a new villain. Just can't think of the powersets that would go behind a name of either ANOVA or ANCOVA
    Might make one a hero.

    edit: I had those capitalized, CoX Forum!!!! grrr.

    Brought out my red-enh'd emp toon (only had three SO's that weren't red).

    ...66 deaths.
    Got to make fun of my cousin who hasn't figured out that non-MM pets are still pets. So, yeah.

    Then I was invited to another STF later in the day (with Myrdinn) and it went beautifully. A couple of people didn't seem to know much, but the rest of the team filled in the gaps and made up for it. It ran rather quickly and I don't even think anybody died. We probably could have run it as "Mo". Good times.
    No one did die. I was thinking about hosting a few STFs on Friday, and I was looking for deaths in that run to figure out where the touch and go moments would be (as I've only run this one a couple of times... and of those two, failed on Angus).

    Was quite fun, though! We *could* have done it as a Mo... and given the number of times my machines have crashed when I tried for a Mo...
    *sigh*
    Good time on it though! 1 hr, 19 minutes, zero deaths. Cool group!



    Edit: I, ah... still need a redside version and two more bluesides... gotta work late tonight... but anyone want to pug Fri/Sat?

    Not that I don't like them, they just take too darn long. So I have a few questions that might seem fairly ignorant.

    I want to get my blaster and my scrapper in on one by this weekend. I started looking last night for a PUG States Force, and I couldn't get anything rolling......

    I'm wondering what's probably more likely to grab an invite...? A blaster or a scrapper? I really only play these toons right now and I supposed I have to do it with each of them to simply move on in the Incarnate system anyway, so it might be a moot point.

    I may just hang out with the 'looking for task force' marked in my team settings.

    Oh, on a side note I did have one guy try to talk me out of doing a States task force, telling me I'd die too often. Weird.
    He wanted your slot. Also, Blasters/Scrappers are about the same; but, remember, those two damage dealing ATs are what we have the most of, in general. Thus, those slots fill pretty fast. OR, he was doing a 'Master of' run, and one of the requirements of that is "no deaths" for that particular TF

    In Blackest Day

    You know you can tint your powers now, right? So, the powersets with terrify/fear/etc. can now be tinted yellow (or orange, whichever color is that corps).

    -Aoide, who's getting tired of the same idiot calling out of work every Wednesday
    I feel ya. Went through three new guys until I found one who would work enough evenings to start thinking about possibly having something resembling social activity.

    Thinking about that... I want Tygra to have a fedora now.
  13. In my recent effort to dust off the oldest-toons-not-fifty-yet, I have gotten Absolom up to about 40.
    So, I'll have Absolom Locdt (sword regen) along tonight, after I get in game.
  14. OP: welcome to Freedom, the oldest, IMHO best, most Prime of the servers.
  15. Ugh. Can't seem to stay awake. Going to have to catch up next week.
  16. Myrdinn, eng/eng blaster.

    ...if I *have* to, I'll run Angus. Much prefer Myr, though...

    (and I'll take altness status, looks like)

    So that makes 3 badges from the arcs tonight... if you decide to fight 8 clones.
    Gotcha and we did!
  18. Will be there for this... however, I will probably bring Lord Angus, instead of Angus Lockhart.
    Shield/mace tank. (He is level, erm, 23 or 24... if he isn't 24 for the event, I'll bring Angus Lockhart).

    *goes back to combat logs to figure out why phase three BM was hitting for 200 a tick instead of 25 a tick as she did a few nights ago*

    I've been extremely happy with power balancing since you took it over. Kudos... let us know where you go.

    I’ve been working on City of Heroes in essentially the same role for six years now. It has been a fantastic learning experience and I have become a far better designer as a result of my time here.

    I’d especially like to thank all of you City of Heroes fans. I appreciate the passion that you feel for your hobby, even when that passion was, shall we say, directed towards me in a rather negative fashion? I have always tried to keep an open mind and treat your feedback fairly. I’ve loved seeing what you have done with the tools we have provided you with. Some of the MA arcs I’ve seen are brilliant and some of the base layouts are simply amazing. I’ve seen costumes made that, quite frankly, are completely beyond my ability despite having access to the exact same tools. Then, there are the wonderful people I’ve met at Hero-Con and Meet & Greets. It has definitely been my pleasure to work with this community.

    In closing, I’d like to thank you all for the good times and putting up with my sometimes surly nature. Going forward, Synapse and Black Scorpion are the ‘go to’ guys whenever you have a powers or entity related question or problem. Feel free to direct your inquiries to them here on the boards and they will do their best to address them. I’ll have PM’s turned on as Castle until 12:00 Pacific, Friday, December 24. Feel free to PM me or post here – I’ll try and answer or comment as best I can!
  22. Ours was likewise short on deaths and times.
    Kudos to: Hatake Asuna, Ragypt, Emerald Deathstalker, Mistress Neurothorn and Sevenpenny!
