Blueside, I took toon that only did this: Atlas to The Hollows to Faultline to Striga to Croatoa to RWZ. Doing the 2 story arcs for Tina McIntyre & Maria Jenkins., Subtract the 1 Ernesto Hess & 1 Moonfire TF I did(50 total Merits). 347 Merits mins 50, 297 Merits total.

Redside, 1-50, 142 Merits total. This doing every contact I could do(Each team was both 8 man teams) Thus I would out lvl some contacts, move on to another. I did no Strikeforces.

So, total difference between the 2 are 105 Merit Difference. That a huge difference in my opinion(could also explain some market issues, though no where close all).


Either we need some more zone specifics like Hollows/Faultline/Striga/Croatoa into RWZ(since both get RWZ) or the Story arc's need the merits beefed up some?

What do ya'll think?

People going about their daily affairs when suddenly there's an explosion off in the distance and all of a sudden the business man getting his morning paper bursts into flames and flies off; the taxi driver eating a beagle turns into a giant stone golem and lumbers off into the distance; a young family walking in the park stops, the wife kisses her husband as her eyes begin to glow with electrical energy. The scene fades and you see the City of... logo and under it, it says "Where Anyone Can Be a Hero!"


I can only dream

...unless you count me as RPing God himself who is controlling little tiny people from the sky. Because that's exactly how I play my characters.

I am not THEM, I am controlling them, like God. The same way that I play the Sims... right before I lock them in a room with a refrigerator and no toilet and watch them **** all over the place.

So yeah, in THAT sense, I AM roleplaying..... God.

I'd meet up with the person that I was trading the name to. We'd meet up in game and I'd let the person know I was deleting the name in 60 seconds so they could get it. Using the /getglobalname feature I'd make sure they got the name on their account.

Sure, I guess someone could get the name in the time that one person is clicking the OK button continuously and I'm deleting the name. But I doubt it. And if it did happen? Yes, I'd give a refund.

i was told in the reply that they will be renewed 7 days from the day you used the first transfer. so i used my first transfer yesterday (which was wednesday) and will get 6 new ones on next wednesday.

Free transfers, right in my price range.

If I understand this correctly, I can create a character with the same name as an existing toon on another server. I can then transfer my previous existing toon to the server with the new one. My old character will receive a generic name and a free rename token. I can use the rename token and then transfer the renamed character back to the original server... and all for free!
