    *edit* I think i broke my finger working it all out.

    According to Paraogn wiki, doing *everything* just once (all the Gm's once, every story arc just once), all the task forces... 3566 Reward merits.

    I believe that is enough to slot out one character (although not purple out), because those are not available via Reward Merits.
    Hero/Villian merits make it very easy to get all non purple/pvp recipes by the time you are 50.

    I am wondering what people's reasons are for playing or not playing an emulator. Is it a moral reason? Paranoia?

    My reason is because I can make my own fun through the costume creator and roleplaying, so even if an emulator is buggy and missions are lacking, there's still plenty to do. I'm not afraid of legal repercussions because its highly unlikely to happen. Should the original game be revived, I'd go back in a heartbeat. If the real thing exists, what need is there for the emulator after all?
    At this point, I'd be happy with a cistume creator login ability.

    I'd be really happy over an emu that did single player stuff.

    I'd be all over anything that allowed teaming and more play.

    You could move character to test and get screen shot that way. Tedious I know but an option.

    There was more than I can remember right now... but 3 names come to my mind:

    Neil Gaiman

    Laurel K. Hamilton

    Mercedes Lackey

    Not only they are famous and wonderful authors, but also showed their support on twitter.

    And Mercedes Lackey went even far... she sent a letter to NCSoft CEO offering herself to promote the game without asking payment for it.

    You 3 are... AWESOME!
    Great stuff.

    The offer from Mercedes Lackey is amazingly amazing.

    ::goes buys more books from all 3::

    Not Goodbye

    I often made use of the bug that populated radio/paper missions with the wrong enemy type. For a while, every character would make sure to have a radio/paper mission just in case.

    When new type of enemies got added to the game, things got reorded/bumped around. Leading to some hilarous mob types. Missions filled with turrets as the enemy was great on a pug.

    One primal character earned the badge for killing enough of the GR group syndicate at a really early time.

    I also liked the costume bugs that sometimes released the shouldnt be released costume parts.

    Lore Answers?

    Give it time.

    It will be an unpaid and voluntary job, and he may want to time sync with others on team to do it right.

    He may not have access to the lore bible anymore.

    I'm sure it will appear on paragonwiki if it's delayed and he posts via twitter or something too.

    Rapidshare.com or dropbox.com it?

    I could set up a ftp otherwise
  10. Great news Codewalker. I really would love that costume creator and would pay/donate for it. Would make my PnP RPG heroes game!

    And if anyone has the old one, and is able to email me to it, please PM me.
  11. The Amy & Rory are seperating at start of episode to get magically fixed by end of same episode felt chessy and daggy to me.

    Probably a lead in to those two leaving so Amy can have kids without getting timeheads or something (maybe get dalekhead now)

  15. There was also two gray alignment arcs (for rogue and vig) that looked so cool I stopped playing so not to spoil it for live :/
  16. I just downloaded avernum for ipad. That will bide me over for a long time. Great RPG game..
  17. That would be cool, though I expect the incarnate & other 50's would street sweep blitz the lowbie zones in minutes.
  18. I would pay a lot for the costume creator

    I never anticpated this. I always thought it would live on in one form or another.
    That's what i was hoping for, esp. with MA for us to create our own content
  22. dual build, and you get two character types
    tank magery

    Way lots of fun.

    /pours a drink for the lost crab legs
  23. I looked at the Doctor who MMO ( http://www.doctorwhowit.com/fue.xhtml ) but sadly its a facebook type game <bleech>

    I think I'll invest some energy into a pen n paper game using marvel superhero's old system and set in Paragon.

    With MA that could of been different.

    Downsized to a server, and let players create content.
