    Neither of these factors prevent you from getting the badge. What you're asking for is making it easier to find out what's remaining. You're asking for the process to be made easier, not for it to be doable (the latter assumes it's broken, which it isn't; the former assumes the process stands to be improved, which is arguable).

    Just pointing out that little tidbit. Good luck on your hunting. FYI, I consider sites like B-H to be indispensable when I'm working up a new badge toon, or one that I just want to get certain badges for (accolade powers, contact unlocks, or even just wicked titles).

    A team that did it the same time we did (and didn't get the badge but met the stated requirements) petitioned and got their badges in about 30 minutes. If you haven't petitioned, and you're sure you earned it, do so.

    im thinking its possible that they messed up on the timer between kills for the badge instead of it being 30 sec like badge says it might only be 3 sec

    This. We focused on a simultaneous kill, and got the badge rather neatly. If you can't wait for the fix, do this. Save your pets and buffs/debuffs for the final push. They heal themselves, we had about a 9% split in the last few seconds, but caught up just in time.

    Also, the brotherly love badge isn't working, so don't be disappointed if you don't get it.
    So, this means two teams for red or blue formage. Thanks for the heads up, Term.

    ...not one of COH's shining moments of creativity and immersion, IMO.

    I guarantee you, if there was a lifetime option, I'd have done it years ago. (Even if offering lifetime subs is the "dooooom" of the MMO playerbase.) It was never in COH. Trust us on this. You're thinking of other games.

  8. I'm a solid probable for this. Dr. Turgenev, if there's room and I'm there for the team muster!

    Leader cred definitely goes to Terminotaur, who was very effective at communicating the directions for the team as we went along. In retrospect, it's actually not that hard; going with a full 16 man team helps for the latter fights (greater firepower potential), and turtling up for shared buffs is a good way to work the big AV fights. Doing a Master run in one shot is quite doable, I think.

    I don't exactly "run" things right now (baby duties prevent me from taking ownership of the runs).. if anything, I'm just connected enough to rope in solid players in order to build a trial team. Think of me less as a CEO and more of a Recruiting fiend. I leave the actual league/team leadership to more reliable players.

    Having SAID that, however, I think it would behoove people who want the Master badge to form up nightly at the same time, in order to bang out the badges as well as train players by regular runs. Traditionally, I used to start daily at 10pm EST. If someone wants to step up the tempo on this and keep it going, by all means, spread the word.

    We were wondering where you went, held out for about 5-10 mins. If you still need this, look for me (rare these days, but I'll show some face over the next few weeks to help people out). Cheers, hon!

    More specifically for the Plummit session where this was concocted: there was a bright green, one-eyed brain slug that David drew as a joke that everyone kinda fell in love with. Are we going to see that come out?

    Well, half of his genetic code is mine, so if anything, that's a plus in my book. Are you trying to say I look like a sleepy baby IRL?

    He's got some similarities to me back when I was a preemie; before he put on weight in the NICU, he looked exactly like me when I was around a year old because I was underweight. (Luckily, he's put on excellent weight since his birth.)

    When he was born he had a nice head of hair. Almost 3 months later and that's swiftly disappearing. I didn't have hair on my head 'til I was 3. I hope he doesn't go through that. Nothing's worse than relatives putting gift stick-on bows on your head trying to make you laugh, when all you want to do is cut them with your Fisher-Price switchblade.

    He's got some advantages from his mother however. I'm built like a cartoon hot-dog: Long torso, short arms and legs. (I often do the T-Rex clap to show this off at parties.) MiniTurg was born VERY long for his gestational age, and continues to sport long arms and legs. I know who'll be getting the mugs from the top cupboard for dear ol' daddy once they can stand on their own.

    Fun trivia. When MiniTurg came home, I decided I wanted to see how much a diaper could theoretically hold. Took one to the sink, dribbled water into it in 1 cup increments.

    It can hold up to 3 cups of water before it starts rejecting.

    Let that sink in.
