  1. A quick note to highlight the Protector Calendar's latest editor: JusticeFalcon.

    Maybe I'll be able to get some sleep around here now that he can add his own events.
  2. In addition to the great tips already shared here: zoom in completely into FPS mode if you're more comfortable with that.

    It felt more like a racing game this way for me and, buffs notwithstanding, was the single most useful change in my tackling this challenge.

    Hyperstrike: you sneaky devil. That falls right into the "wish I'd thought of it first" category.
  3. Stalemate

    1,100 Club.

    1117 on Stalemate v.6.

    Now to plan SFs and mayhem missions (only 2 SFs done so far).

    ...and those darn day jobs.
  4. I was told there were fairies distributing cookies here.

    In other news, now at 1117, with a Vincent Ross' arc attempt which should have been 1118, but badge did not award.

    I'll be in the Corner of Sorrow enjoying my non-cookies, and planning other ways of getting that one.
  5. I confirmed last night that this badge did not get awarded for running the arc to my character, a rogue tanker exemplared down to level 25 who was not the mission holder (contact will not talk to him).

    I've looked in the flashback missions and didn't find this arc, nor recognize the contact in the list.

    Anyone know if it's there?
  6. Wait... so my son got this badge last night?

    ...


    Before I did?!


    Well done guys.

    And to answer your question. Not exactly. Wifey got relocated to AZ so I quit my job and now I stay with the kids!

    That's because I'm a miserable ******* on FB.

    Glad to hear you guys are doing OK in any case.
  8. Got 1080 a couple days ago.

    With the Shadow Shard badges (36 total inc. accolades), that will be 1116 - probably tonight.
  9. Good to see you ingame again Hedo!

    Protector Vigilance is where I've invited anyone who was still left in the Praesidium channel, btw. It's the "server activity" chan and serves to promote organized events (Activity calendar link in the MOTD). Impromptu TFs are always happening, so hop in and make yourself at home, again.

    Zones may appear light, but in fact everyone's busy running this or that. In fact, Protector's numbers seem to have increased since Going Rogue launched.

    I was seeing a player running with Dark Fallen SG displayed just last week and wondered who that was - didn't recognize the character name - and wondered how you were doing.

    Forgot to ask: you mentioned in an email that you'd be back when your wife would stay home to take care of the kids. Is that what happened finally?
  10. I still need to get this done. Was supposed to work on it last Saturday but Real Life™, you know?

    If rogues can join in, please save me a spot (or two - checking with wifey tonight if she's interested).

    OK, enough forum posting for you today.

    Now get back to earning me some prestige.

    Tip: Besides all the speed buffs you can get, try running it in "first person" view by zooming all the way in.

    I was unable to complete even the minimum times until I did that. Afterwards it was downright easy.

    Well, "kid", now.

    Good news though - she got both goodies!
  14. Added to Protector Calendar.

    I added a "ball" icon to make it stand out.

    Unfortunately this falls on the same date as my wedding anniversary for me, but have fun!

    Well done.

    The kids loved the little extras you also sent.

    I had them fight over who got which through a friendly little joust using daqtaghs.
  16. Loving Issue 19 so far, and I haven't run the new TFs officially yet.
  17. It's now available for me.

    Thx Beef Cake. =)

    For me, I received badge progress when I crossed those almost exactly dead center.

    The 2 badges I had more trouble with were the 2 that are off the "shore" of Nova Praetoria (not under bridges).

    Thanks. Hired my daughter to craft them. It's a little business she's got going.

    Got yours today btw. Thanks!

    I managed to use mail merge finally.

    Night before last we signed/personalized cards and last night we filled envelopes and had our daughter "sign" her handiwork.

    We even added a few extras for folks we knew.
  23. Wife called this morning to complain to me about the total cost of this project (she was mailing them out today).
  24. Welcome back AlbinoBull.

    As Arch previously mentioned, you can use the N P C channel if only to find people to assist you on whatever server you're currently on.
