    Doh! I never could keep dates straight. In that case, ignore my last post, and my original post stands. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
  2. Not only did I not get my brute up to snuff, I didn't get to log on 'til Sunday afternoon, thereby missing almost the whole double xp event and the relevant hami raid. Thanks due to RL and all the assorted suck-tastic events it throws my way to keep me on my toes. I'll do better next time, although I'm sure my absence went completely unnoticed.

    Same for me, except I am running as admin. Error message reads: "Error opening file for writing: C:\Program Files\Titan Network\Mids Hero Designer\Hero Designer.exe". Thoughts?

    Yes, it was a lot of fun even though it was also very grueling at the end with only 6 of the 8 original teammates. Eeek!

    Next Sunday's SF is tentative on my end. My computer will be out of commission for about a week or so from about Wednesday on. If I find a way to play that day I'll let you guys know. Hopefully, I'll be there!
    Aye, it was fun, as it usually is. Hence, the reason I keep coming back.

    Worship diligently at the PC god's idol, and good gaming fortune shall be yours.

    Actually, I have several toons that fit the bill for this one, so I'll let the forum decide: Earth/Thorn Dom, Elec/Elec brute, or my bane spider? Or are we going to play cards by the door, while Demon solo's the whole thing?

    Whenever we do it, that is.

    Edit: GAH! Stupid VG symbol! Took away my skull!
    lolz, I didn't even notice the VG emblem on Tripp 'til you pointed Demon's out. Gonna have to do something about that.....
  5. Screenie #3 gets my vote.

    Gonna get my new brute up to snuff before tonight's SF, I'll be there w/ Tripp Breaker.
  6. Were we postponing this Sunday's SF 'till after the double xp weekend? It's cool if we are, I was just checking.

    And what's up w/ no screenie??? Falling down on the job, Gothess? I kid because I care.

    On a related note, a friend of mine is going to be running SF throughout the upcoming aformentioned double xp weekend. If anyone wants in, just send me a tell @Sokyoku, or a PM, and I'll get the info to the relevant parties.

    See you around, Protector.
    Ouch, better half's birthday? You are so screwed.
  8. I'd really like to see Misanthropic Manatee come back, but he's a loser and defected back into WoW.
  9. I saw a Sheriff John Brown. Undead, actually, which i found to be especially fitting. Marley fans oughtta know what i'm talking about.

    Hopefully I'll have my elec/elec brute up to snuff by saturday, but if not I'll bring my stalker.

    Is anyone "farming"....crap, the real name of those insps escapes me...those special, save you from being manhandled by Hami insps? Oh, and I'll bring nukes.
  11. Not that I'm a vital part of this operation, but I'd like to get on one of the spike teams. Boss layed off half of the company, effectively doubling my workload (and halfing my gaming time ), but I'ma start setting time aside for CoX. Should be there, barring any wierd preventative measures taken by RL.

    I was just trying to stir the pot, so to speak. Mission accomplished. Truely, I hope that more people are interested. I came to terms w/ solo'ing on Protector long ago, so no big deal, either way.

    Caliber Black, DP/Dev Blaster, Heroes/Resistance
    Rollin' John Bahmer, DP/EM or /Elec Blaster or DP/Cold Corruptor, Shades of Grey (aka, i cant figure it)
    So I take the lack of new posts in this thread to mean that there's not enough interest? Meh, it must be my Wu-Tang style they fear. I do find it hard to believe that there aren't going to be a slew of DP running around as soon a GR is released, so.....go figure.

    Edit: Based on the time from the Wolrd Clock (from Chicago) it will be 2 PM for me, Sokyoku, you were close.... just 13 hours off
    Meh, gain an hour, lose an hour. Who can keep track of these things?

    "Living in a land w/ freedom of speech means you're gonna get your feelings hurt from time to time." At least that's the way I was taught. Chin up, Smite, freedom of speech also means you never have to say you're sorry.

    So, to be clear, the Hami raid is an alternating blue/red rotation? Blue this week? I'll try to make it.

    Edit: 7pm cst..... now i gotta figure out what that is in GMT
    I'm in Eatern Standard Time, and I wanna say GMT is +5 for me, Smite. That is to say, SFS starts at 8 PM for me, so that would make it 1 AM for you? Don't quote me on that, but it should get you in the ballpark. Hope it helps.

    So, has anyone else tried the new armor/shotgun upgrades from the cerberus network? Not sure if mine took, do I have to get them from one of the shops? Or is there a mish that pops up? Admittedly, I haven't had time to sit down w/ it, yet, but for the few min I did, I couldn't find it in my inventory. Thoughts?

    I'm in for all three, or however many we run. Gonna bring Sok for the first (needs one more respect trial badge ), and then one of my alts for the other two. Haven't decided on which, but I figure I'll just wait to decide 'til I see what AT we might need. See ya there.

    I had maxed out money and paragon status on ME1, neither of which transferred to ME2. Maybe it's a platform thing. I've been talking about the 360 version, although now that I think about it, has it been released on any other platform? Can you tell I don't spend much time on the net? Have I exceeded my maximum amount of allowed questions in a post?

    But, yes, you CAN lose loyalty that way.
    I chose neither's side in the argument, instead going w/ the paragon option, "for the good of the mission" speech. Course, I had a full or nearly full paragon bar when the fight broke out between them, so I'm sure that was the contributing factor. Thanks for the correction, Sooner.

    I forgot to mention i didn't upgrade Mordins omni tool or Grunts shields which may have been a contributing factor. My Paragon status wasn't maxed out either. Some times you just gotta hit a ***** in the face with your elbow.
    Who you side w/ has no bearing on loyalty, based on my experience. I pursued Tali (because I wanted to see what she looked like under her enviro-suit. )and still did all the loyalty missions w/ no adverse effects. Talking to Jack/Miranda after planting the seed w/ Tali was a little precarious, but well within manageable paramaters.

    I had all of my crew loyal, sent Legion into the shaft, had Samara bubble for me, had a full paragon bar, and sent Jacob back w/ the crew. I took Grunt and Thane on the last part, and everyone came out alive. Don't know if this helps anyone, but it's my two cents on the matter.

  24. Team wipes have never bothered me, for some reason. Which is odd for me, being as my friends/co-workers wouldn't describe me as an "even-tempered" type of guy.

    I'll be there for LGTF with, who else, Sok. I'm trying to work on my other toons, as to offer the group more AT options, but RL has been a real drag lately, and not been very cooperative to that end. Meh, what's one to do?

    I'd be interested. Not sure which side I'd take. Guess it would depend on which side needs more members, or if there will be enough interest for a team on both sides.

    My toon would be "Rollin' John Bahmer" (pronounced w/ a long "A"), DP/EM or /ELEC, or DP/Cold Domination for redside. Of course I'm always looking for suggestions.
