Happy Cakeday Doc!

That'll be a redname clarification then

... AFAIK We were not told that we need to assign slots within a time limit at I12 launch (and most definitely not in the EU release notes).

I'm confused... I thought the patch notes were quite clear in that the 2 slots would only be able to be claimed for a limited amount of time (emphasis in original quote is mine) and I also read that as need to be assigned too. I automatically read that as NCSoft would stop giving out the slots to accounts that did not claim/assign them before a set date. I assigned the slots straight away but I was expecting this sort of announcement at some point anyway.

I personally don't have an issue with this announcement because as far as I can see this was made quite clear right from day 1.

I think this is were the problem is. You have emphasised what you read as being they would be available only for a limited time...

Yeah, I can see how the statement can be interpreted in both ways. Though now I reread Ghost Falcon's post I think from this line...

If you have not claimed or assigned those slots to a server, then after the window closes, you won't get those two free slots.

[/ QUOTE ]

He's saying that if you just log your account in within the requisite time period then you'll keep the slots even if you don't assign them (again my emphasis). It would be nice if a redname could clear up any ambiguity though

They seem to be some sort of advertising/press company. Funnily enough they do list NCSoft Europe amongst their clients.

Ah, missed that bit... bugger

I nominate London Ranger's awesome vid!

Linky!

Woah! Awesome!

Very well done indeed LR! That was really impressive. I can't even get someone to stand up straight in Poser

Edit: I think they're doing more than e-mailing it round the office though! Linky!

Yay, cheers Cryonic, that worked great!

I've tried having a play with the majic desks but have had no luck at all. Could someone point me in the direction of a good guide please?

Preferably one that has big pictures and uses small words!

Nice badges Mothers, I'll be forwarding you all the relevant info soon

Fixed it for ya... you missed a bit

And yeah, I agree with most of what's been posted here. If I see a cyst when I'm on with my WS or PB I'm usually first in

TBH when I first saw this I thought it kinda sucked. I've never really had issues with Voids/Quants on either my WS or my PB. Okay they get me before I get them sometimes but about 9 times out of 10 I have no problem beating them.

And to be honest I liked the idea of something that was a nemesis to the AT. I just wish they had put more in for other AT's/Origins. (i.e Sappers. Okay they End drain people but it would have been cool if their attack had a special type of non resistable damage against Tech origins, like it overloaded their circuits or something... That would have made the game more interesting I think)

But oh well. Life just got even easier for dragging my PB to 50.

Indeed!

Merry Christmas peeps

Thanks for the comments guys

It was a lot of fun to make, especially as it was my first attempt at a video and I had no idea what I was doing

Many thanks to all the elflings for having the patience to put up with me... especially that one 3 second clip that took 27 takes!

Edit: Typo's! Remember kids.. posting after a night shift is bad!

i was once a treehouse
i lived in a cake

the orange slayed the rake
i was only three years dead
but it told a tale
and now listen, little child
to the safety rail

did you ever see a llama
kiss a llama

i've run out of luck
time for me to retire now
and become a duck

Midnights,

Since I 1st started playing I have been using Sherksilvers build planner. I have checked out a few others before but found they did not have the full functionality that Sherks offered.

I have now checked out yours having looked through this thread and all I can say is. FLIPPIN ECK!!!!!!

There are no words to describe the sort of genius that could put this together at all, let alone in the brief time since I9 went live!

I almost wonder if this work of art could qualify for entry into the creative genius award, if it is eligible then it's a hands down winner.

Midnights is a GOD!!!!



[/ QUOTE ]

That's a good point. Midnight, you should post this in the creative section. You're garunteed nominations.



[/ QUOTE ]


I can really only support that - I hope that Mids could somehow be rewarded for the big works he's done.
I'm among the fans! So I'll nominate Mids for his

Mids' Hero/Villain Designer

[/ QUOTE ]

I second that nomination - it's a fantastic piece of work!

Hey Prov, can you add Aerin Elfling (Warshade) and Meekha Elfling (Claws/Regen Scrapper). Ta

Ok, I put this here because I'm not sure where it should go so...

Question: While not exactly 'creative' can screencaps be 'Art'?

I ask this because I got *really* lucky with this screenie the other day which I think is artistic.

Discuss and maybe post some of your funky screenies too.

Meh, probably a good point but as I'm 41 now there's no point in changing. To be honest though I've not needed Eclipse all that much up until now, not with the suicidal scrapper i normally team with

Though I have swapped some slotting around on it now though.

Just thought I'd add my WS build too. I'm having so much fun playing him at the moment and have just hit 39 (though I do have him planned out to 50 based on this guide.)

The ability to double mire / quasar virtually every third mob is just too much fun for words lol!
