Nothing ever came about with the additional reaction to the powerset announcement?

As for the top 10, really like #3. LoZ: TP can be a timesink. (or most any of the LoZ games)

-Goal for 2011: Survive, stay alive, and continue to thrive.

Cut partly due to size of the scoop, and partly because I didn't think it would provide meaningful content thanks to the signal (information) to noise (cries of Doom, developers hating x side of the game) ratio.

Sadly, I haven't seen this much overreaction to an addition to the game (as opposed to a nerf) in a long time.

It was after the third identity crises on infinate earths with civil wars and a secret war. Y'know, the one where we found out all the Signature Heroes were really Nemesis Automitons, and that Manticore had made a deal with Beelzebub to make everyone forget that he had married Sister Psyche so he could hit on Ghost Widow?

I think a Wizard was involved, too.

We have a lead time, and except for the super panic inducing announcements by NCsoft, we are trying to stick to them so that the staff (Proofreaders, Layout, EiCs) are not burnt out. We have had a large turnover in the EiC position is for this very reason.

Basically the staff submissions have to be in a week before we send the Scoop to Ex and LH for review now. This allows the proofreaders time to look over articles over the weekend, and layout to have a chance to make sure that mistakes in the past do not get repeated. It also helps the EiCs who have real life demands (I am going to post secondary school, for example) time to deal with any issues that arise from said tasks.

Outside submissions tend to need another 4-5 days (so the Monday before the staff has to have their articles turned in) so we can get everything set up.

All this is a long-winded way of saying that White_Gravel did submit it yesterday, and it will be in the April 11th Scoop.

I didn't find any, but i'm not even sure what to look for. I'm not very good at guessing games... :/

Just wave the cursor around the pages, if it changes to a hand, you can click on the link.

I'll even hint that they are both on the first page.

Edit:
2 of the links look like normal text (not blue, not underlined).
