    If you like that then delve into some non-hollywood, really good Orwell books like 1984.. craptastic screenplay of it: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087803/


    Totalitarian societies.. can't wait till we finally get there...
  2. ty for hosting/organizing.
  3. So a few of them have the mayhem mission as last round of people didnt' need those particular ones aparently; and are working towards their next one..


    Mebs, you also have to remember that in the past 30 days? No not even as it was around Halloween that I scheduled one for --2 people-- (neither of which showed) and Athena and a few others picked up the badges instead that go around... Since then this will be the 6th time I have run them for one of more people; I don't get that much playtime as it is to be continually doing these for people over and over and over. Thank you for making it sound easy though; especially with all the people that always come along and say 'let's not do the papers I can help you do them some other time"... and they never do.


    Let's say either Fri. the 26 or the 27.. afternoon/early evening EST.


    I have off Thu the 26 and Fri the 27 so should be able to get everyone at least one mayhem by then.


    That good for you Dexington?
  4. Meh.. Just added it up..

    Sorry was wrong before. it's 3 days and 5 hours.. Exactly, just did one....

    fracking Mebs making me log in to check on a night I really didn't have time to play /Rolshambo's Mebs


    Meh to me that's 4 days.. like the "20 hourrs reward" for like every reward you 'want' lol.. That to me is.. once a day.

    And it's not like I log in every day *gasp*

    Correction:

    3.5 days.. i.e. 4 days.


    Every 20 days would be good to go. (3 papers needed for the 6/11/16 .. and 5 papers needed for the other 6)

    This did not work in feb., this also did not work in June with a large group (including some well known PvP'ers that I will not mention name who were more interested in killing people instead of following directions)

    Suffice to say, is a real PITA. Hopefully works or we can petition a GM ahead of time to be there from start to finish.

    Thu?

    No can do for me.. Regular game group over in NJ late nights that I have missed for 2 months straight now, that I will be making.. H or High water..
  8. I have 8 toons (read 8 character slots taken up) with 1 guy of each mayhem level 6/11/16/etc..

    If you can get the 45-50 one I can get you the rest. Caveat is.. You are going to do some of the papers. Considering people pay upwards of 500Mill for all 9 if I do the legwork ahead of time so can blow them through it in under an hour -- only fair you do some of the legwork.

    My play time is so unreliable lately due to Real Life... _IF_ I keep my current job then I have @ a week of vaca that I will lose (way over the 40hour cap carryover) and will be obviously taking the PTO time vs. losing, so might have some free time to sit around while you get the badges.

    I am EST, work M-F.. Most Saturdays am out of town board gaming. Sun is 'live alone' do all the housework day..

    Will try and update you with a "I am free these times schedule."


    It takes under an hour (if I do all the papers and legwork ahead of time -- couple of hours there).. if we do only 2-3 papers per toon it would take 2 hours or so (Compare that to TFC....no contest)

    Correct.. and hush hush!

    (MM + Stalker + DPS used to be the original only "requirements" for this SF.)

    (looks around for an developers.. 'nothing to see here'...)
  10. Put me down. Have many toons with Usurper.. Redside for life!!

    Prefer to do a nice speedy run over a master.


    You don't need to 'use up the dimensional grounding ray'.. you can delete it ;0

    Then again you don't need it if have other toys.. Double or Triple veng'ed 7 HVAS's and 7 Shivans and all 3 nukes x2 make Reichy go 'Hey, you didn't tell me there would be a party on my grave!'

    having vent would have been a nice communication tool, and most definately not had multiple people in team chat trying 'to lead'..

    I thought it was funny since even his dual-boxed Tank was taken by surprise by the Emp's actions, and that was the same person. Maybe he forgot which alt was which? (actually, that would pretty much explain everything that happened).

    But meh, not too fussed. Hope to try again Sunday.
    Cute that the tank had the aggro Dolly.. The Emp brought zero aggro with him, considering he was the one that TP'ed Dream originally in... High road of you to be fighting mobs after you were TP'ed into a room with Zero aggro, nice...

    Anyways....


    Apologies. had the EMp on follow to the Tank, no I didn't forget which was which.. Great assumptions there Dolly.

    Walking into the room on the tank with BS in tow watching the spam of team chat you were spwewing about how we should not be TP'ed into the final room and fight our way through.. was astounding.


    Nice to see on invincible Reich mission you stuck in the mission with the tank while the whole team waited outside as Seldom requested.


    More than 2 attempts could have easily been made in that time; again apologies for being the die'ee /happens.. ya move on.

    Unless the mods have changed it recently.. CU is an OPEN channel, no mod needed. The 'inactive settings' have not been set and thusly a mod can not invite you due to 'channel being full' .. just keep trying to rejoin, eventually you will get in.


    O yeah /wave, welcome to Champion.. read it!: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=202607

    Speedy SF/TF's / Soloing obscene things.. similar likes as you
  16. [UPDATE]

    Will be there for.. Hairdresser can't go out afterwards due to work and family constraints.

    Should be on around 7pm EST or shortly thereafter.

    Same with the LRSF. Sure, I can Confuse/Sleep the Freedom Phalanx so Numina or Sister veeeeeeery sloooooowly wipes out the other 7 Heroes. But then...I'm no match solo for Numina or Sister. What I do now? I can Haz I Win button?

    (Yeah I know some can solo AVs/Heroes. My Dom can't though...)
    Doll,

    I am in no way picking on you -- just answering your question.

    On badge toons, they should have their accolades -- demonic / force of nature / etc. clickies that are up in under 15 minutes and are very useful tools. (Especially FoN, which in turn reduces the rech on the other 'acco clickies')

    The biggest tool I see most people not use is ignoring their Candy .. called Inspirations , the things that one continually gets replaced through fighting. With the global mail system you can easily email yourself (what is the current limit 20 emails with attachments?) whatever you need, you can take breaks when low on inspirs and 'restock', etc. Watch when you are next on a SF/TF and check for yourself if people are using them 'only in bad situations' or normal use, the result may astound you that so many people ignore their inspir tray.

    --There is also some forethought (call it experience if you want) Does a person Click the heal inspir when damaged or do they know their toon and the things fighting well enough to go 'click a luck(s) and/or sturdy(s) before entering the fight. Foresight is a lot more powerful than hindsight.


    You need to do research to figure out what one AV/Hero etc you want to face at the end, for the toon you are playing.. it may be a different hero etc. wanted to face vs. another toon (all depends what is easiest for the toon you are wanting to do it on) As Gi Joe so accurately put it -- knowing is half the battle.. Example: if you are say weak to Psi then don't make the final hero a psi dmg. type, make some other hero your final.



    As an afterthougt edit, Rom can be pulled to an area that will give you Zero ambushes allowing you to fight him Solo; actually 3 areas. You can also pull him away from his Nicti, kill him alone then grind down the Nicti themselves (grind down cause killing Rom vs. a Nicti is ridiculously faster).. All depends what you need to do.

    I salute you.
    Confuse and AoE Confuse on a high recharge build (Mind = Aggroless, can cast from stealth / out of aggro radius) = stupid cheating the CoX AI. or rather 'Easy Button'.. Ever seen a Khan with 2 AV's ignored attacking Reichy? If not I'll show ya

    There are many 'easy button combos' in this game though /shrug at confuse being a slow and reliably safe one..Hami being your friend = easy kills. Hro beating Honoree to aPulp = fun to watch. Romulus killing his own Nicti = Snoozefest.

    Watching other Mind/Psi doms needing tanks on things you Solo'ed and refusing to let you tank it for them cause you don't want to 'Kill All' = /Priceless

    ...Need me to box an Emp on another account same time also /can do


    I sent Amily a PM about the other Mo forum thread for this Sun... thank you for the suggestion.
    We see what comes of it, yet again am arranging my schedule so can show up for an event run by people that continually tell me "full", "not wanted", etc. crap .. /shrug optimism is not high.


    My Dom Solo'ed his MoITF and his MoLGSF, someday soon I will finally get the time to Solo his MoLRSF also if needed. If I do maybe will drag some others with me, if they agree to 'terms' of being offline etc.
  20. Add me please.. will try and get home before 8pm this Fri. (Haircut at 5:30, then taking the hairdresser out for Dinner)


    (Can bring the Stoner again to make it 'easy mode' if need be, would prefer to get it on my badger if possible. /shrug whatever is needed.
  21. Goro response to a multi-handed SpiderMan 'fake-out'.. /nice


    A cat pic with a Hand showing for a Popsicle size BatMan emblem with multiple photoshop'ed crap..CAT PIC!


    ...ty Demo for the shortlived 'ths thread is improving finaly from the S* vs. S* 2+ hour time delay fiasco.. thread delivering was interrupted,
    *return to your regularly scheduled programs*


    Edit: 1st Post for a full new page.. /begin
  22. What are your in-game Globals?: @Mezzey
    What builds are your PvP characters on Champion, or that you would be willing to move to Champion?: q number of toons, PvE builds.
    Are you willing to respec into a better PvP build?: Depends on the toon, can see if there is one in particular I would like to play and the team also wanted me to play and what improvements are needed -- got Mid's?
    Are you willing to roll a new character if needed?: Depends what the answer to above is, can easily roll a toon and level them up. Rolling a Blaster or a Therm to make more the same old - same old teams you see nowadays type of league, ick probably not.
    Do you have a mic?: Yes
    What is your general day/time availability?: EST, work early M-F. Most Saturdays am out of town board gaming.
    Briefly describe your PvP experience: Haven't done so since I13?, when was the mass exodus called 'DR' again? -- yeah it's been awhile, lol.
  23. Ty for providing Dinah.

    The only thing the instructions describe are how to install -- Nothing in the instructions to choose non-purple or what exactly this will do/apply to your game (ex.: is this only changing Praet character creation screens or all creation screens? other screens than these or just the character creation?)


    Is there a way to make all the loaders the same color, of your choosing? (definately not purple)


    The game client has similar issues with forcing your toon to use the color settings of that morality/side (even if you have changed them and saved your wdw settings, switch sides and voila it changes the colors on you)

    2nd place - 6-3
    3rd place - 5-3-1
    4th place - 3-5-1
    5th place - 5-1-3
    6th place - 3-5-1
    7th place - 4-1-4
    8th place - 0-9
    That above is plainly not a good representation/ranking.

    1st place has the same amount of games as second but second has 1 more win and 1 less loss and both are the same on ties? 5th should be ahead of current 3rd, 7th should be ahead of both 4 and 6, 4th? come on they should be next to last along with 6th.

    No sense does that standing make.


    More CRAP:

    Has nothing to do with Ego, this has to do with the system - sorry you feel abusing the system is warranted (cause that is the only reason to say "take a loss so you get more points".. come on, get off your high horse and listen to some logic (maybe you can't and this falls on death ears, but I don't care) Let me guess you are against any changes being retroactive also? (Funny pairity that would be)



    So either call this a test and start over (new Week1) or retroactively adjust things, 3 weeks is not that long either way to do things right. Shrug just the outsider, with a more level head, laughing while hearing and reading and watching this farce.

    We've held a few so far and contacted people in this thread. If you are one of those people, I kindly ask you to edit your post stating you've gotten the badge so I know who to give priority to for the next CoP. Much appreciated.
    Have the badges on my badger - ty again, willing to help with notice. Mostly redside.
