That is awesome WN ... Did you make sure to include the Arc Id and such in his Description?

He is an exact copy of the Dr. Disco Fever you meet in the arc including his description except for the fact I have "Think you can stop me? You can try! Arc 84420 Death to Disco!" or something to that effect at the bottom.

Cap,
Very interesting commentary! I love the whole idea and hope some others pick it up.
WN -
Because the main "bad guy" of this arc Dr, Disco Fever, was so well received I decided to bring him into CoV as a "real" villain. The other day I was on an ITF with him when someone on the team asked "Are you that guy from the Death to Disco! arc?". When I told them I was they said "My friends love that arc!". It made my day.

Title: Tailor Made
Arc ID: 258291
Creators Global Name: @anachrodragon
Mission Count: 2
Notes Designed for villains in the 20s or high teens (will AutoSK to 20). Intended to work both solo and teamed. There are only a couple objectives in the large second mission, but lots of optional stuff to smash, so it can be either quick or long depending on your own pace.
[/ QUOTE ]
Lowdown The contact for this fun little arc is The Facemaker. She is very well written and has perfect feeling dialog for the character. The first mission is basically a set up for the second and is very short. It could stand a little sprucing up. The second mission, which takes place at an outlet mall is well worth the price of admission. Be sure to read the info on all of the destructible objects or you will miss out.
Funny Level Humorous
Fun Level - Fashion week in Paris!
Lets up it to 11! It took quite awhile to find the one object I needed to destroy. Maybe give the guys guarding it some special animation. How about using some of the other characters from the Facemaker's shop (maybe in the first mish)?
Overall Rating Excellent fun little arc for lower level characters.

It was very clever and really would have been a 5 stars, but we both felt like Manhandle was the funniest of the bunch, and you sort of "shoot your wad" so to speak, too early in the arc. Personally I would probably move Terrible Wind to the first boss, and save Manhandle for a bit later.
[/ QUOTE ]
While I like Manhandle as well, I personally find the two bosses FF and BS (don't want to say their names and spoil the mish for people who haven't played it yet) in the last mission to be funnier. I still lol at some of their lines and I've played the mish a bunch.

What I am finding is that people have a variety of favorites though Manhandle is the most popular. I wanted to make him the final boss of the arc however there were a few issues with that. First off, remember the nav text for him requires he impart information to the player and that does not really work at the end of the arc. Secondly, I figured I really needed grab (ha!) people's attention right off the bat for them to commit to the premise of the arc. So that is why he was placed first.
As an aside, I also struggled over mentioning Manhandle or any of the bosses in the story description text, but ultimately decided that I had to include him. It came down to 300 characters not being enough space to get the story premise across with out including the name.

Title:Captain Dynamic, the Great, Faces the Great Face
Arc ID: 190069
Creators Global Name: @Aehaed
Mission Count: 3
[/ QUOTE ]
Lowdown Have you seen the hilarious Captain Dynamic videos? If not you really should watch them before you play this arc to fully understand what is going on and the characters it revolves around. (Just go to YouTube and search on "Captain Dynamic" to easily find them). This arc takes off where episode 3 ends and does a really good job of capturing the overall feel of the videos. It features really neat objective twists, very sharp briefings and the customs are spot on.
Funny Level Very Humorous
Fun Level - Awesomeness!
Lets up it to 11! Many of the non-required glowies have no clue (a good spot for more funny) and no click bar text. Also, it should be in big block letters to watch the related videos.
Overall Rating You really, really need to watch the videos to fully appreciate this arc which could be seen as a short coming, but I feel it really strengthens the arc.

Starting soon with arcs by Wrong Number. Please come to RWZ!

Thanks to everyone that showed up and played my arcs. I also appreciated all the feedback people sent me. Hope you had some fun playing them.

Airhead,
Thanks for the great review and for the typos you caught. The "In" in Bone Shaker's dialog though is purposeful since it is always preceeded by "Your". Think about it

I sincerely apologize for the following arc. My husband insisted I make it when I struck upon the idea after playing a paper mission that had a particularly questionably named boss. Remember, you were warned.
Name: In Poor Taste
Arc ID: 259920
Creator Global Name: @Wrong Number
Difficulty Level: Average
Synopsis: Ever done a radio mission and pondered what the devs were thinking when they named the boss? Should these guys be out on the streets? Ms. Manners doesn't think so and she needs your help to round up the worst of the worst starting with a boss named Manhandle. It only goes down hill from there.
Number of EB/AVS 0
Story Type - Humor
Mission Count: 3
Estimated Time to Play: 30 minutes or less
Note - All of the boss names are actual names created by the devs.

After Citizen Razor's awesome review I went back and made some changes including:
- Corrected a few typos
- Modified the firs clue to reflect some of the final bosses names.
- Added Ms. Manners optional ally to the last mishes nav bar info.

I accidentally unpublished this arc. I have editted my first post to reflect the new number.

PW,
Didn't you also play Death to Disco! during this time period? I was really happy you enjoyed all the improvements.

I had to go back and submit ratings for the arcs we ran last night since I never got the ratings screen for any arc. Should this happen to you, just write down the arc numbers or get them from here or the MOTD on the channel. All you need do is start the arc, Click "Architect Options" on your Nav bar, rate the arc/send comments and then quit the arc from the team window. In total this will take seconds and I know authors appreciate the ratings/feedback if you run their arc (I know I do!).

I am sure it was an oversight once again, but you forgot to list "Have a Blap, Blap, Blappy Day Kids! #2019 under arcs you gave 4 stars. Probably because you originally gave it 3 stars, but upgraded it to 4 when you reran it after I did an overhaul.

For the next round of reviews, I'd like to play: updated arcs! If I've played your arc before and given you some feedback on it, whether an actual review, or just plain ol' feedback, and you've updated it significantly since then let me know. I'm in the mood for the familiar right now.

I know for sure that Trademark Infringement (2220) was one of the first you did for your site back in April. Ii has been greatly improved since then so please give it another spin.

I don't think you've ran my one-off arc, "Cat War!" yet. It's #2788. It's not as funny as either of PW's humorous arcs, and it's composed mostly of inside jokes, but what the heck. It's one more rating for me and something for you to do. :-)
[/ QUOTE ]
Lowdown As Citizen_Razor notes this arc was made as an in joke for his brother. Despite that it has so humor in it that anyone that has owned a Cat will appreciate. Also, the customs and their bios contain a few laughs.
Funny Level Depends on who you are
Fun Level - It was a one shot mish and moved along at a nice pace so it is fun-ish.
Lets up it to 11! Hmm, not sure I can comment here not knowing the audience.
Overall Rating A cute little arc with lots of inside jokes. If you like cats, you will get a kick out of it even if you don't get most of um.

I have reworked the first two missions of this arc and am looking for feedback. My main goal was to try to give a little more of a hint as to what is happening with out spoon feeding it.
WN -
Unfortunately Sunday night is the one night that I definitely can not make. Good luck to all.
WN -
I made a few changes:
- I set it so that others from the Rock and Roll Nation spawn even if you are solo.
- I added a patrol to the first mission to spruce it up a little.
