Tubbius

Might I suggest a little bit of fun?

City of Ho Ho Ho, or A Claus in Paragon
Arc ID: 18775
Levels: 5-20
Length: 3 missions. Timing may vary; they're on small maps.
Description: Experience the origin story of Tubbius Claus of Paragon City, a hero claiming to be old Santa himself, on vacation from his duties in the North Pole!

I'll see what I can do about playing one of your arcs tomorrow (today, whatever, as it's after midnight already!) as time permits.

My main toon is a 50 on Justice named Tubbius. I get a few requests to farm most nights I'm on, as well as a few random invites to random teams that are simply, when I click them, going on the new hotness of farms, the Hami Goo Raids. All it takes there is a simple click to quit those teams and a brief message back to politely end those conversations. So what does that leave?

For one thing, it leaves the fact that I've made three arcs. I have the slots to make five more, now. I'm going to do just that, as time goes by, I'm quite sure. I'm also looking to make all of those arcs as fun to play and as well known as they can be without simply spamming their ID's everywhere in game. So, that leaves my actually taking a few minutes to talk to people in the game's AE buildings, telling them a little about my arcs and inviting them to play with me.

Last night, I teamed with two to three other people at any given moment, a total of four, with members rotating out and back as the needs of life demanded. We played through my "This Costume Contest Sponsored by Tubbius," arc 101933. Everyone, not just me as the creator, had a BLAST. Players got to see the plentiful NPC heroes I created mostly for that arc, and, while not a farm, we had fun smashing through Council and Winter Horde with homegrown allies at our sides. Jokes were passed, laughs were had, and, from the three folks who remembered to take the time to rate, I received 75 tickets and compliments on a job well done.

THAT is a sample of the fun AE can provide. I take my RISK of looking for teams that aren't "optimal" and don't have eight people on them at every given second, and I am REWARDED with good feelings, new global friends, and the secondary awesomeness of tickets I can use as I need, which usually means being able to afford the salvage to keep acting as enhancement man for my Super Group.

Take care, folks, and have fun in the AE.

See the EULA for a discussion of NCCoin--but what IS it? How do we get it?

In a follow-up to my amazingly long-lived "Would-Be Celebrities on Justice," I present, for fun, silliness, and a total lack of flame wars, the following!

When you think of the toons out there who seem to be designed strictly for fun, in terms of character info and appearance, who comes to mind as being instantly memorable and easily recognized?

Some of these might, or might not, overlap with the Would-Be Celebrities, but that's part of the fun if they do!

So, who really stands out in terms of being immediately recognizable, and what makes 'em so darned cute or fun to see?

I like Loony Toons of Justice. Will have to rename to avoid naming issues. . . .

Shens. Sounds like a new restaurant or something.

Well, I reckon it's a good time to let the thread ease off. I reckon I'll start up a sequel of AWESOME some time. Got suggestions?

Follow up!

EXTREME EDIT to Costume Contest! Fourth mission added with every single major NPC from the Tubbius Trilogy present in force!

About to test. . . .

WOOHOOOO!

Thank you, MCM. I heartily enjoyed reading your analysis.

Commas out of place? Remind me to check this. I teach English. . .

And I'll see what I can do about the last mission of Costume Contest.

Yup. I experienced the "Can't edit in my base" thing last night and was like, "Huh? Wasn't this one of the big things mentioned about the Comlink initially, that you could edit with it even in your base?"

Sad Tubbius. Wonder if it's now the way it's supposed to be (a good guess that it is, given the pop-up it gives when you try to do it; that wouldn't be accidentally put in the game) or a slip-up/oversight. We'll see!

It doesn't fit the idea of what you're looking for, but if it's an arc with a LOT of spandex and/or costumes you want, check out This Costume Contest Sponsored By Tubbius. There are. . . I think seven or eight heroes and a custom villain across three missions? Check it out.

Try my three in the Tubbius Trilogy (as it's been christened!) in my signature! Controllers are my main toons, and these arcs are largely playable by any level, with a possible exception of PENGUIN; the first two missions of it are minimum level 30.

City of Ho Ho Ho: 5-20 on all.
PENGUIN: 30-54, 1-54 on final.
This Costume Contest Sponsored By Tubbius: 1-54 on all.

Check 'em out. You can find any of 'em by searching up the name Tubbius.

Edit to add: These three arcs are meant to be sequential. Try 'em in order, and let me know what you think!

I just noticed something disturbing.

Why does a thread devoted toward naming AWESOME PEOPLE, that currently has very little in the way of flamey badness in its many pages, rank one measly star at the bottom right corner of the page?

Tubbius is a sad, sad gamer at this.

AE FUN! Tonight, I've slightly altered Graatak's look in City of Ho Ho Ho mission 2 (a troll boss doesn't need a shirt, now does he?). I also just made a considerable update to PENGUIN mission 2 (added a fun new boss! Will play through it tomorrow after my morning class!). And I'm fairly sure I took out Tubbius Regalis's Force Fields on Costume Contest mission 3. Keywords are added to all three missions, with Final status currently on City of Ho Ho Ho and Costume Contest.

ENJOY!

Yup, time saver. Also useful if you're in your SG base and there are a bunch of people crowded around the enhancement tables and racks. Just set up your portable workbench across the room and voila.

Waffle Supreme? This I GOTTA see. Any screenshots?

It is? Oooooo. Must keep reading!

Oooooooo! I'm in the queue!

Eventually.

The thread still goes? :O

Whoa mama.

With Justice, it always comes back to Hami, right?

MrCaptainMan, I know you've played through my "Tubbius Trilogy" already, and your comments in tell were very generous. . . but might you be willing to rate and run PENGUIN on here if you find time and inclination?

Err, sorry; just saw the note about no more requests. Well, let it wait 'til you're ready for it, if you even want to do so. Thanks!

Yup. This title reminds me of a really bad night at a spicy restaurant. :O

But yeah, paying for MA is bad juujuu.

Aww. Looks like I killed a thread. Bad Tubby, bad!

I recommend the Tubbius trilogy, too!

Wait. I made it, and it's in my signature. Hmmmmm.

Shame this arc wasn't published 30 arcs later. 123456?

We're on thirty-eight, and folks are STILL discussing cool people. This ranks as being awesome. It's neat seeing people give these shout-outs.
