...well, maybe not anymore, but I love the QuiteRly Owl.

This.

S'up, Tiggy, get back in the game already. (btw, if you want a "refer a friend back" code, I can try to scare one up for you.)

Compared to you, old man, I'm practically a negative embryo.

This pic says it all.

o.O Wow, serious thread necro...

...but to answer your question, Tina and I went to a favorite mom-n-pop French bistro named "La Palais" and had a delightful time. Thank you for asking nearly five months later, Syn? XD

Same, I'd be happy to help out to get you through the TF. Never leave a man behind!

Yeah, but I didn't get the HUD, with all our witty WTF repartee.

Luna: I was on my DP/Fire blaster, Gun Father last night. As we headed back to Positron (I think for part two), I came face to face... with my nemesis.

Father Gun.

Empath/DP Defender.

Same hat. And although I didn't see it, I'd guess, same gun style, from his dress.

I'd hopped right in front of him, did a "whuuu?", and declared in local, "YOU AM BIZARRO TURG". It just went to hell from there. XD

Do tell, what happened?

I'd be on that like white on rice.

That was hella freaky.

They're supposed to, but this isn't the case. I've had to retool "Ghost 1" twice so far. However, there's some leniency here on editing and getting it re-DC'd. Just PM Dr. Aeon to notify him of the status change, and he's been very responsive on reflagging it.

So I don't know if "DC immunity" is still in effect, but the consequences of it have been drastically reduced.

At least until Dr. Aeon quits from the stress of us PMing him every time we make a change.

It's a little quieter in AP and the high transit areas, yes. Looking at my global lists, though, I'm seeing about double what I saw a few months ago. At least for teaming, I don't hurt at all when I want a team, but I also stick with my global friends and channel contacts instead of pub teaming.

I have noticed that Virtue's been dipping into the yellow more often than Freedom. They always say that "it's a measure of server stress, not population", but in my eyes that's roughly analagous (wouldn't it be a kick if the pro farmers had moved there for better opportunities? ). If you're asking where our population went... well, it IS six years later. As good as COH still is (and Issue 17 is pretty snazzy in my books), people look at the age and would rather go for the "new hotness" of other, more technically savvy games. Understandable, but I think people need something as bar-raising as Going Rogue to try this as a new game.

Then again, I've chatted with a number of new players too within the last week, and they were generally trial account or brand-new sub status who picked up the game on their own. So marketing's doing SOMETHING right there.

We'll see. The house is a bit quieter, but that just means more signal, less noise. I'm diggin' it.

I think it's a matter of self defense on the Dev's part. I mean, seriously. Most of us BHs got all of Issue 17's badge in the first day. The only way they could draw out the badge work is by teasing us with vague rumors.

Well now. I have some time at work. Lemme login and use that nifty "Walk" power to check out every nook and cranny of RWZ while I rebuild these SQL tables.

(I wonder if the areas are opened up when the shields come down... like there's some sort of Rikti Dance Party beneath the saucer...
