  1. Delayed but En route now. ETA 330-345. Update here if you move from Charbucks.
  2. Off to brunch with a friend, then heading for Starbuck's at Arundel Mills. Update this thread if things change venue. Like, if we suddenly decide DuClaw's rocks.

    I mean really. What would be more surprising then that?

    Talk is cheap, Dumps. I'll see you and your progeny in the Arena. =D
  6. Torroes: Put me down as "Turgenev" for the Warworks graphic, thank you.

    I'm set for 3pm. Agreed that we should have all the grimy details consolidated into the OP's post to make it easier to find. Thanks, elvnsword.

    For stuff like this, I'll use /copychat to push the text to Notepad and do my quotes/saves from there.

    FYI from your friend, Turg.

    I'm guessing it is Layla (here's a thread with links and pics of her work) you are referring to? She makes some great stuff!
    YES, thank you!! I was going nuts last night after writing up the post, looking for the card insert that was included in the gift delivery - but the maids had come by yesterday and moved everything around, and I all I got out of my remembering was "Lyra", "Lyla", "Larry", etc, none of which searched correctly.
  11. Statesman has fallen.
    Dark powers rise.
    Shadows dance gleefully in the dark.
    The dead god Mot claws at his grave.

    One heart, tempered in fire and in steel, stands ready to take up the mantle of the Greatest Of Us, to lead the Phalanx and Heroes alike into battle...



    ...but first, he needs a nap.

    ...and, realistically, a solid diaper change.

    (Thanks to everyone for helping me get Layla's name right! )

    *SQUEEEEEE*

    Just sayin'. Closet fan.
  13. 3pm would be splendid for the pre-party. I'd have to leave around 6pm, so that would give me a few hours of chill time with the gang.

    I've never been there, so I don't have much of a clue as to what I'm talking about, but a mall is a mall, right?
    You could all go shoe shopping...
    We could also watch jousting. Medieval Times is there.

    (It's also $60/head, which is a little silly. We could watch the teenagers joust instead.)
  15. S'up Freedom?

    I figure I'll be playing more often in about a month. I can still drop by sparingly, but it's hard right now. Weeknight runs are probably a bust, but I can prolly find an afternoon weekend slot to dance with ya crazy mooks.

    Hope all's well. Been feeling outta touch with my spandexy side. Not a bad thing, but every now and then, I wanna get my knuckles bloody with you people.

    Seeya soon.

    Show me the post where I mocked you. I think you're thinking of Traegus.

    ...and if you're confusing the two of us? Son, I am disappointer.
  18. Bad news. 6pm's too late for me. Eric's feeding time is around 7pm (for medicated bottle feed, which is my job), so that kinda kicks the plan in the nuts. Unless we can timeshift to 3-4pm start time, I think I'm out. Sorry, gang.

    Chiming in because I broke this down in detail and included a demofile to prove it.

    Leaving the pylons up keeps Hami's aggro radius down to near melee-range. I don't think the # of pylons matter; leaving one up accomplishes much the same as all six. However, IMO it's faster to clean up the Rikti and the mitos, then the pylons, then the Hami nucleus. How those tactics apply to Bonk's solo project, YMMV.

    If you're interested in the proof, let me know and I'll dig it up. I'm fairly sure I posted it on the forums here.

    EDIT: Ah, here we go, including my demofile post.
  20. Just pimped this on the uSTREAM broadcast with Zwill. Thanks for the advertisement and the perma-sticky, Z.
  21. NAPKINS. They were cloth NAPKINS. Now I remember this.

    ...okay, carry on.

    o.O

    I don't remember the coasters thing.

    ...what was in that drink you gave me, Traeg?
  23. Sorry for the late response on this, but welcome, Son of Shandi.
