Obviously, you've never tried building a fully functional base.

No I have... but I did it alone, because my Supergroup is full of half-hearted players. So to me? Yeah that's a lot!
That's pretty great. My little sg has already got a ton of prestiege saved up with a fully functional base, maybe I'll blow our savings after this weekend on a bigger plot!
The shocker is that it came from Cricket not Cuppa .
I have come to expect Cricket postings = bad news, and Cuppa postings = good ones.

They just wanted to turn your world upside down.
To some folks the double xp was bad news.
/em forebode
Yeah, it'd be great...
....if I'd gotten it. Which on the character I'm on now I'm quite sure I didn't, as she has decidedly less than 20k prestige currently.
Of course, my global channels also mysteriously disappeared again today for me, so it's just shaping up to be a lovely day.
One drawback of the internet is how it has trained so many people to think that one day is a long time.

The prestige was added to the supergroup. It won't show up under each character's row in the SG window.
They should have worded the announcement differently "Every Supergroup has been awarded 20,000 prestige for each member during daily maintenance" or something.
This is nice for my little solo SG... only wish I had had a chance to get all my alts in it before they did this though

[/ QUOTE ]you know, this could be a hysterical new contact pairing to add to the game, the contact is cuppajo, or some variation therein so that its obvious its referencing her, and every mission you have to talk to an insect themed superheroine krikkit. anyhow how it would work is every time you contact cuppa, she gies you this rosey description of this teeny tiny job states has and she tells you about all the cool artifacts, and heroic deeds associated with it, and then sends you to krikkit, who then reacts astonished to the description you got and proceeds to tell you about all the baddies and monsters, basicly lets you know that this is very likely the end of life in the universe as we know it , or how the good event has gone horribly wrong. example follows.
cuppa:good news rian frostdrake, the freedom phlanx recognizes your tireless dedication to justice, and thinks you could use a friend to help you unwind after a hard day's work, so we got you a puppy, states wanted you to have it, ask krikket where hes being stored so you can pick him up.
Krikket: bad news, the puppy played with luminary too long , hes now a mutated 8 foot tall warwolf, you ahve to go defeat him before he eats kings row.
(note: this could actually be used to unlock a "decorative" base item, a nameable pet warwolf who just walks around looking menacing, ala creature handlers pets in their houses in star wars galaxies)
example 2.
C:the freedom phlanx has an oppertunity to get more in touch with nature, ask krikkit about it
K: devouring earth...lots of them, bring friends..and a lenient health care plan.
ex3
C: we want you to meet someone , shes out of this world
K: Rikti eleit boss, and shes a magus, who was your next of kin again?
i figure it could be funny wether you get the reference or not. Whaddaya say?

*Laugh* Yeah - we do have a good cop - bad cop vibe at times. But hey - she's much better at bad cop than I am - she was a GM.
lol DAMMIT!
I booted a bunch of inactive people from the group LAST NIGHT because they were inactive or were pethetic prestige earners.... I just threw away 140k prestige easy...

Oh well, that's one less couch you'll be getting...
140k could go towards a couple of enhancement storage stations... we still need 3 more (one for each origon because the dev's thought it would be to much work to incorperate a "sort" feature for the storage bins LOL)
I wonder what the devs are going to do regarding base upkeep now. My villain SG suddenly finds itself with over 1.3 million prestige but the number of active players is only about five or six people and we do not play every day. How much of that bonus prestige will be eaten up by "upkeep"?
It would be rather ironic if our base got locked because this gift ended up putting it beyond our means.

Decorate like crazy. Decorations don't count toward rent IIRC.
Supergroup Message of the Day: "It is currently impossible to move around in the base due to every square inch being covered in potted plants, jars of brains, tables, chairs and modern art. This is by design. Yours in villainy, Fearless Leader."
Sounds like we just earned 1mil prestige!
Woo hoo, now I can buy a teleporter AND a toilet!

Did this myself a few weeks ago. 6 characters x 20k prestige = sad panda
I should have made the innactive character time limit 60 days vice 45

Same lol I booted the people that were like 20+ days without signing in last week. Not sure of the amount, but shrug.

To the best dev team ever: I enjoyed meeting you all at the Summits and best of luck in all your future endeavors.

Only if both of the in-game NPC's (Cuppa and Cricket) are in Cyrus Thompson Center!
Per person? OMG... That's a lot of free prestige.
