But I fully support this idea, and wish you all the best for it, and rest assured once my CoV woes improve I'll be thre with Bounty and Mr Munt.

Ummm... Prize? Be advised that these guys are villains and wouldn't hesitate to kill Munt if he annoys then.

It's the Praetorian Version of Eddie, so in other words he's not as mean...

Some more Undead Family goons would be cool :P.

I think this is a great idea, but won't be bringing my toons along until something happens to improve the lag. Took me 30 minutes to get Bounty from Nerva to Mercy Island. When I got there I was so narked that I didn't stay for very long.

Try and get one of your characters there in advance...

Screenshots look good.

I'm hoping to turn up for the next one - what time? 10pm still?


Edit: Due to RC's stealth posting...

Well, I'm hoping for a steady stream of Villains going there for now on, might pop on tonight is GG is slow. I'm planning an official weekend test for 10PM on Saturday and Sunday...

Sadly, that is quite true.

Well, The Port Oakes isn't that far for the agressive Villains.

Who's going to show up tonight to keep the ball rolling? Don't forget to join CTOOC.

It's a good idea. The Clocktower could have something that is precious to Recluse. An item of infinate power that could help him rule not only the Islands, but maybe even Paragon or the world!

Or maybe it's just a pair of Ghost Widow's knickers

Anywho, I think we should have a test on the weekend too but I encourage people from GG and out to go there around 9 or 10 tommorow.

Well, so concludes (for me) the first trial night for Project: Clocktower. And I must say, the results were extremely surprising and quite frankly, more than I expected.

We got quite a group of RPers joining us, only a few of us were from the Galaxy Girl Statue.

When everyone arrived, it was a tense and confusing situation where many thought it was a trap:

Finally, that Doctor chappy gathered us all towards the centre and the introductions began.

Once the embalming fluid started going, Mister Necropolis began to relax...

Now the evening passed and the crowd got more relaxed on the neutral turf, with only a few NPC Invasions. The most amusing moments of the night go to the Mad Scientist and his robot who had a touch for human woman.

Sadly, the Tool Invasion happened in the twilight of the evening (more on that later) and we had to evac from the ground floor of the Clocktower to one of the several balconies.

The Tools got to us again, so this time we retreated to a much more secluded location with the remaining RPers (Thank you Wonka and Group Teleport).

While there, Mr Necropolis decided to search a shipwreck for possible treasure and took out some of the punks there...

It was a mostly perfect evening, I thank those who turned up and took part or just watched.

Now, the tools. Sorry Robot Crusher and Half-Pint (not), I do hope you are enjoying your 4 day Vacation for the harassment. Don't come back.

Not everyone hates big boobs hehe.

And gratz on level 50.

I'm up for a test run this evening around 10PM. Just to establish some things and get the general feel.

Red..
...Red you know what im going to say about your silly clock tower idea dont you?

What a nice spot!!!!! A wile back a friend of mine _Noir_ set up a r.p meet on Cov it was fun. It lacked something that the gg has tho.. Might just be the nature of the games?

I wish you luck and will make the effot to pop over the first night i can.

Thanks Jesty.

Maybe we could possibly start the RP slightly earlier (8PM perhaps?) for those who want to get an hour each of RP in the evening...

Awesome, I am quite pleased how much approval this little bit of research has got.

It wasn't my idea nessicary too, Jed and several other players including Veskit and Red Saint helped look for the spot.

If we got the thing officially going, I'd go there from time to time two or three times a week.

I suggest we pick a launch date for the actual thing to start and establish it. If any of the Union Villain RP Guilds would like to help, feel free.

Maybe if we ask Bridger nicely, we could get an event going .

And creating a Clocktower OOC Chat Channel would be a good idea for location purposes.

Okay, Today me and a few GGer RPers decided that we've had enough of the homeless situation of casual between missions RP that the Mercy Isles has had since it was opened to us last winter.

So we met up in Fort Darwin on Mercy Island and searched for a nearby area for RP.

And we found it. Darwin's Landing, a quiet little area with a few level 1 and 2 NPC's nearby a short walk away from Fort Darwin via an easy to follow path (In other words, keep going north). The most striking features of the walled in area aside from the massive multi ledged Clocktower were the slighty vandalised phone booths, benches and even a little dirty garden for those like to clog up the sweet Earth with plants of pure Evil.

Easy to get too?
Check. Even marked on the map and on the main path from Fort Darwin.

Interesting surroundings and people?
Check.

Full of Atmosphere?
Heck yeah!

I'll included some screenies of the area thoughtfully taken by Mr Necropolis. Have a gander and see what you think.

The view ontop of the Clocktower spire, makes even the most dead Villains leak some sort of tear like liquid from the eye ducts...

The Archway that supports the massive Clocktower, great for taking cover when it rains.

The mentioned Vandalised Phone Booths, one of them still has a door you can almost shut.

One of the courtyard walls.

Now all we need is a possible reason for our Villains to go there...

Oooh, I have an idea for something you could do Ben, why don't you perform little plays and interviews with certain player heroes?

All you'd need to do is cut out their head and torso's and bluetack them to fingers/pens/chopsticks/the cat.

To the Uterus mobile!

Oooh. Approval is nice.

Interesting. I gotta do me one of these sometime too.

Amusingly accurate.

On a sidenote, I want to give the cossie creator some babies.

Bump.

Indeed, what is the situation?

Can Red Commissar join the waiting list of heroes to be drawn?

Impressive.

I agree with any of FFM's choices as well as Inny.

If Inny starts wearing a red nose, we should start worrying...

Great work Blackdove.

There is always Fort Darwin by default.

Happy cake day, It's nicotine flavoured with a hint of bitterness!

For the casual between missions fort of RP, visit the Galaxy Girl statue at 9PM GMT. You'll see at least a group of casual hero RPers.
