Holy cow Jester back from the dead.
Big props for running those Arena fights on Test and broadcasting on W00T. -

My name is Kara and I'm an extreme introvert. This has worked out well for me though as it's allowed me to make a career as a freelance translator and now editor.
I haven't done a lot that would be known by the general populace but I helped edit and translate some poetry for Ellipse Magazine (nominally from Tim Bowling) through the Literary Translators Association of Canada (may be defunct), helped with Ralph Alfonso's website (www.bongobeat.com) to a degree, did some associate consulting on former Canadian heartthrob Lee Aaron's old website for French translation and well...our little unit also helped Terry Moore find some French swear words for one his characters, Katchoo, in the Strangers in Paradise comic strip. I've had the honour of meeting Umberto Eco in person and not having a massive panic attack and puking on his shoes and of working for Bell Canada (for Sympatico's massive outlook websites), National Defence (radiation poisoning treatises) and a bevy of other places including some law firms on Intellectual Property disputes (between booze brands) or contract issues (Air Canada labour disputes).
People always ask me if I'm a gold farmer, if I have a job and so on.
I got help incorporating myself early on and have worked from home the past five years. I ALT+TAB from my texts/lexicons to CoH for a quick gameplay session then meet a friend or two for the weekend.
Oh, I once helped stop a fight between two different native language speakers through some quick "interpretation" in a bar setting. That was stressful.
Yeah, boring stuff but it keeps me busy enough...

I've played this game for eight years...EIGHT YEARS. Never in my life would I think a hobby could enthrall me as this one has. And now I know no other game will be as interesting or have the longevity of appeal this one did.
Met some great people here and made a lifelong friend...what more can one ask for? -
You were a beast Zwill, was so much fun pvping with you and chatting.
All the best! -
bAss became a DEV?
SO FREAKING COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, you still owe us an all-Scrapper i-trial on Pinnacle! -
This game has had some incredibly community mods. CuppaJo, Ex_Libris, Zwillinger, Freitag, Lighthouse had his great moments, Avatea...pretty damned cool bunch of people.
Thanks for everything guys! -
Magisterium trial with Tyrant falling and a Hamidon Raid. You might need to make it a "closed" raid so it's not griefed...two of the Earth's greatest threats and a lot of teamwork.

As much grief as I've given Castle, there are a lot of good things about PvP now.
The Devs did do what was best for the game, it's just hard to see it from our side of the monitor since we don't have access to their meetings, directives from above and so on. -
Downloading Champions now and will try DCUO and Star Wars but my heart will always be here.
-
You could be really, freakishly OP and the Devs were mostly ok with it.
I am going to try both of the others...and I'll gladly sub to any of yours Stars, you have a fantastic head for numbers. -

Castle can go to hell.
The rest were pretty awesome, especially Zwillinger. -
Quote:Fire/Fire Blaster. Nyrana Damodred on Pinnacle (long unsubbed sadly) made me a believer and the Blaster changes have turned it into a pure, blazing engine of carnage.Lies. Masterminds are some of the most controlled chaos fun you can find anywhere.
Sweet, sweet fire.

Quote:I basically went to the middle of the first list, cut and paste until I got two codes. Friend did the same on other list. There must be hundreds of codes out there so...The way I did it I copied the second set of NA codes into Excel, started from the bottom, and just went CTRL-INS, TAB, SHIFT-END, SHIFT-INS, ENTER, nope, TAB, UP, CTRL-INS, TAB, SHIFT-END, SHIFT-INS, ENTER, nope, TAB, UP, CTRL-INS, TAB, SHIFT-END, SHIFT-INS, ENTER, nope... over and over again until I got the hit (after about fifty codes or so). You can quickly zip through codes until you get a hit that way in a reasonable number of keystrokes.
Then again I opened 2400 super packs and wrote down all the cards, so maybe I'm not a good judge of what's a reasonable number of keystrokes. -
OMG IT'S THE KIRBY KRACKLE.
Got it on both accounts, friend got one, freemium friend EXPLODED when we told him and he is getting one.
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH it's a golden age addon! -
Just finished accolading and IOing my Street Justice/Fiery Aura Brute, tons of fun and soooooo much damage. If Brutes could generate fury while running or travelling they would be almost perfect. >.>

Not much more to add except that more stuff quicker and some stuff when unsubbed is much better than ragequiting and getting nothing at all. -
Going to need to run an STF for the Tier 4 Alpha thing on my Grav/TA, I have pretty much everything Acco/IO wise, see you guys tomorrow night...

Doc Buzzsaw: "Oh, what has science wrought? I sought only to turn a man into a metal-encased juggernaut of destruction powered by the unknown properties of a mysterious living crystal. How could this have all gone wrong?"

Quote:You see a man named Prosser in front of a bulldozer. He is screaming obscenities.The graphics are a different barrier. If we eliminated the graphics and reduced MMOs to a text adventure, we could make MMOs more accessible to tools that assist the blind. That is, after all, where they started.
>Lie in mud
The mud feels warm and squishy around you. Prosser is yelling at you to move.
