Glad to hear it. Shannon is about halfway to 41, and she really wants/needs the extra protection Body Armor will give her.

OK, thanks.

I can't find Disorient listed under any of the invention badges. Does it count towards the same ones as Sleep, Stun, Hold, etc.? Or does it not count towards any of them?

The Lord of Winter mission appears to be bugged - when you click on the big present you get teleported to another zone at random rather than the Lord of Winter's realm.

Maybe this is the excuse they need to extend it.

I too will be disappointed if the big secret was that Lori was pregnant. It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me on several levels.

1) Even if the doctor found out she was pregnant, why would he think it wasn't Rick's baby? Why even run a DNA test to see who the father was unless, A) he was just that nosy, or B) they revealed to him during dinner that Rick was in a coma for a month.

2) Speaking of dinner, Lori was hitting the wine pretty hard. You'd think if the doctor knew she was pregnant, he'd assume from the boozing that she didn't know, and maybe he would tell her.

3) From an out-of-story perspective, like others have said, if Lori is pregnant, it will come to light eventually anyway, so why waste a cliffhanger on it? Although, if it takes her a couple more weeks of in-show time to realize she's pregnant, then it would confuse the issue of whether Rick or Shane is the father.


I never read the comic book, but I think the spoiler mentioned earlier makes much more sense. Prior to reading that, I assumed the secret was going to have something to do with the origin of the virus.

At the beginning of the episode, didn't Jenner record something to the effect that they had been in Wildfire mode for 100+ days, and that the public exposure had taken place 30-something days earlier? I assumed that meant the virus was created, or discovered, sometime before the beginning of the series and there was an accident that caused it to escape containment. When we learned that Jenner's wife also worked at the CDC, I figured she was exposed in the accident and that's why she volunteered for the study.

I'm going to theorize that the Twitter codes are being claimed more quickly than the others because Twitter notifies you when the codes are posted, so claiming one of those is a matter of being reactive.

To get one of the codes posted on the forums or (as far as I know) Facebook, you have to be proactive and somewhat more lucky - i.e. you have to keep refreshing the page in question, and be lucky enough to refresh it shortly after the codes are posted.

I'm shocked that you were able to get one from Twitter 11 minutes after the fact, Trassy. Was it maybe an EU code? When I was playing the Twitter game, the NA codes were always gone by the time I could get my account page open and type them in. None of them lasted 11 minutes.

Maybe it's so short because they are going to release i20 on January 4th.











Yeah, I hope they extend it another week too.

I take one of two paths:

Name ---> concept/powers ---> backstory.

or,

Concept/powers ---> name ---> backstory.


I rarely, if ever, make up a new character based soley on a combination of powers that I've heard is amazing (i.e. flavor of the month). Sometimes I'll think, "Hey, I don't have a character with xyz abilities," and I'll try to come up with a concept for them. More often though I think up a cool name and if it's available, I'll try to build a character around it. I don't always succeed.

G-Man, they are posting them in a stickied thread in the COH General Discussion forum.

Thanks all. Got on one quite easily last night, and it was the steamrollingest ITF I've ever been on. Only one death - mine because I was stupidly standing too close to one of the Shards when it blew.

I have a toon who could really use the Roman costume set.

Considering that for some reason it takes me more than a minute to log into my NCSoft Master Account when these pop up, I'm fairly sure they are all gone by the time I type the first one in. Oh well, I guess I'll give up on snagging one of these like I have every other time they've had a "Feeding Frenzy" giveaway in the past.

I'm still not jaded about this event. Maybe because it was running when I first started playing, or maybe because I have only been playing for 3 years.

This'll be my fourth Winter Event, but I still very much look forward to it, and probably would even if there was nothing new added, which there has been each year.

I only wish it ran longer than 16 days.

Another suggestion (fr the forum giveaways at least):

1) Pick a random number between 1 and 1000 each day.
2) Each day at noon PST start a thread in the Forum Games section inviting people to guess the number.
3) At noon the next day lock the thread and award a code via to the X number of people closest to that number.
4) Start a new thread for that day.


I guess the obvious drawback to this is that people could sell the codes on eBay, but to me that is a lesser evil than the "feeding frenzy" and ill will the current system creates. Also, someone would have to keep track of who won previously and disqualify them from entering again and again.

Lady C, are we to keep an eye on your DA page to see if you did drawings of our characters, or will you post a notification here if/when you do one?

Just curious.

Were the Forums versions of the codes ever posted yesterday?

This game is going to the Europeans!
