  1. Well, it's not like I have really played or posted in the past 4 months, but now I will be without a job, and Darque Beast and I have just hit the 'bored now' place. So, we will be canceling our accounts. Time to put on my clothes... yes, even pants. But I suspect we will be back in a (long) while - no, you cannot has mah stuffs.

    It has been a delight to play with many of you and chat with most of you! Keep the Hami raiding spirit alive!

    If you want to drop me a line saying hello, my email address is not hard to figure out... I am at gmail

    Pregnacy Sucks

    Congratulations. My mom always tells me that all the pain and discomfort were worth it...

    Oh, wait. Has she been lying to me for 40 years??? Crap!

    Anyway, hopefully the ickiness will recede and the awesomeness will take over... SOON!
  3. Was fun - thanks guys!

    Mebbe, next time, we might have to fight off scouting groups from Praetoria?...

    I'm just saying....
  4. A belated "AWESOME!" Gratz on getting a wife and begetting a child!
  5. I don't have time for lots of examples, but I think the defining characteristic for 'evil' as far as villainy goes is selfishness. By that I mean, two entities can have the same goal of save the world (Rikti invasion, for instance) and use the same methods, etc. However, WHY did they do it? To save everyone else? Heroic. To save themselves and what they care about? Villain.

    Some villains truly only care about themselves to the extreme - doing only what they want at the harm of everyone else; others *do* have people they care about but are willing to allow or even cause harm to *others* in pursuit of protecting their 'property' and their people.

    I also think that there is a 'pro-active' aspect to villainy. Heroes react, they don't start anything. Villains start trouble, even if it is in an effort to protect what is theirs.

    It is in the weirdly over-lapping zone that you get vigilantes/rogues/what-have-you. They are doing it for the right reason (protect everyone), BUT they are *actively* stirring up trouble. Or they only *respond* when they (or theirs) are hurt, but it is for selfish reasons...

    Again, not a perfect definition, but I think the vast amount of comic book heroes and villains can easily be categorized in this way...
  6. Bwahahahaha! Yeesha was REALLY hungry?

    Perhaps a bit of punctuation would help...

    *ahem* "I am in, Yeesha!"

    I can orchestrate that as targetter. The only difficulty is the speed of recharge on some of those powers. RI comes back quick, but benumb, howling twilight, EMP arrow/EMP are much slower recharge. This also means we need to stock the Abyss with kins and rads (and a few darks and colds).

    The spike team and the MM stream needs to be lower in numbers to favor higher numbers of corrs, and melee will need to clear greens together with hold and ranged! Then everyone helps out on yellows (with debuffs), then the blues since the regen levels are crazy...

    Completely feasible, BUT we need the debuffs!

    Ummm... how are they going to fix 'em? I mean they ARE big balls... how are they going to be cut off????
  9. Ummmm... apparently the this raid is planned for Mother's Day... and I have a mom-in-law who is rather strongly encouraging us to come see her... so I might be late.

    Hahahahahahaha! That was fun.

    And OMG! Y'all are beating up poor Rhynwa, and gunning for RhynwaTake2... I am living at the two ends of the spectrum - the one that runs "Sucks ***" to "Frickin' Rad, Man!"
  15. Spiffy! I may bring dom or I may bring my ice/cold baby!
  16. Oh noez! I am 2 days late. So, you get a 2 spank discount on your birthday spankings....
  17. I *think* I can make it...

    Want me to lead hold team, ranged team, brute team? No MM or stalker, but otherwise I got it very covered :-)
  18. I teach anatomy and physiology class tonight! Grrr...

    But it is a review session - might cut class short and show up...

    Hami, you say? The Jello on *my* turf? Oh yes, Rhynwa may just have to show up and do some Shooters

    This requires a TA. At level 50. In the Hive.

    BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!
  20. I wanted to thank everyone for coming out to play as well! Sadly, since we didn't kill Hami, we had a double mito bloom to face - and we just didn't have enough anything to make it through them

    And I figured out the answer... Same as we did last night, except everyone in the Hive needs 1 EoE... at the second bloom, everyone takes the EoE. Then, even if the tanks fall, Hami dies. Jello for all! Mwahahahahaha!

    The other thing that last nights run showed is that the yellow tanks really are completely capable of finding and taunting their personal yellow at the point of bloom... this means we could just begin clearing WITHOUT ever leaving the goo! Most of our time is wasted leaving and resetting, but if the tanks just taunt their mito at bloom, green team just begins at their leader's nearest green, melees start at their leader's nearest yellow and the range team just starts on their nearest blue at every bloom, we can knock this puppy out FAST!
