    Something like that was my first thought, but it seems... unsatisfying in some way. *Sigh* Failing other options, I will likely go with something like that.

    I have a Demon Summoning Mastermind with a technological bent, that is playing off his Demons as though they are some sort of Solid Hologram. And, ideally, I would like it to appear as though they all have the same name.

    Originally, I went with the name Illusion for them all since the I --> L trick can be used in a lot of combinations across all 6 of the pets. However, I don't think that conveys that the pets are actually there... not just pretend. So, I named some of them Solid Hologram and others I suppose, could just be Hologram, but that doesn't make me as happy.

    Any ideas for a naming convention that can accomplish this?

    My gut says it's taken.

    For those interested in the story arcs, leveling to get to Oro and then just doing the arcs through there seems much better than trying to get the right contacts, sort through the garbage missions, etc.

    Do people use Oro for their content or still do it the old fashioned way?
    The problem with your question is that it presupposes folks are okay with PLing. I, for one, am not. I won't do it... period.

    Were I able to do Ouro arcs without that pre-req? I probably would.

    Ahhhh, rhyming again. I really didn't see that when you posted that phrase the first time. I really really thought you meant the actual gorilla-type ape.

    I think the biggest issue with wanting costume parts like tights and things designed for a bygone era of costumes is that this game is very much set in the modern world... as such, it would seem like some of the art folks won't want to dig into the past for something like tights that are being made now, in the present day. Other past-themed costume sets focus on items that are only available from that setting (but I am likely forgetting stuff).

    I saw you mentioned it... prolly shoulda worded my post better, but I wanted to include the image so that folks knew what they WIP designs looked like.

    I figured that would be your take on it.

    I just wanted to make it clear I wasn't calling you a women's cleansing product or anything. I was just pointing out that you, of all posters perhaps, are probably the most equal opportunity as insult flinging goes.

    Yes... sometimes... there are Brass Ponies that the players have wanted since they first appeared.

    No, it really isn't. I am under the impression that once you delete a character, it is still associated with your account for a period of time in which only you can have access to it before it is officially "free" to use according to the DB.

    I think it really is the smileys that got to me... blame a certain alliterative poster, I guess. Oh well, whatever.

    You don't read very many of Forbin's post then, do you?

    Ummm, ITF is not a Level 50 TF. It is a Level 35+ TF.

    I really can't disagree with this more... which I suppose goes to show you how many different kinds of folks play this game.

    Level 20 is right about where the vast majority of my new characters stall out. I play maybe 1 DFB every few months... I really can't stand it, due (in part) to how many folks seem to do nothing but that content. When I make a new character, I really like just playing through some early level content, street sweeping, etc. I think the levels come fast and furious and the gains of new powers makes it fun. As you get to 20 and beyond, that slows down a lot.

    True.

    Especially when Hawk gets embarrassed when folks tell him that he's cute. It's hilarious.

    The dude who was the guest was sorta cute though... if you like that sorta thing.

    As long as it is a Strike Force, and not a Task Force, I am all for it.

    Much harder on red to get that badge then on blue.

    Yes.

    Once you get a Senior GM you can have an actual conversation usually (through e-mail) and try to have them reverse the decision/situation.

    No guarantees though.

    Also, sometimes tossing a PM to Zwillinger will get the ball rolling.

    Note: Politeness and patience DOES count in this process.

    The fact that folks are picky is, to me, no problem at all... it's the folks who try one name and give up that get to me.

    It seems that while the OP is certainly selective in his names, he is also willing to go with any suggestion that fits his needs. The real issue with picking names isn't creativity, or many other issues folks claim... it is adaptability.

    I have a comment: Katana Manipulation is a horrendous name.

    As long as there is an "opt out" feature, that pretty much dismisses all the "woes" raised in Bill's post.

    I see no issue with this at all.

    Dude, stop making inane suggestions.

    This game has more than enough so-called "fan service" as it is. Though, that term is a bit of a misnomer, IMO.

    POST-ACTION

    When will people stop saying "toon" instead of "character"?

    Some folks actually are rude, but I am quite sure the "spirit" of the above post you mentioned was to make it easier for folks to help you out. Because, well, that first post doesn't exactly spell out how you want us to assist you in your quest for fun and awesomeness.
