Is it just me, or does this one seem just as long as the "double sized" issue from last time?

A GM column ?

Excellent idea. One suggestion for it would be, just how to write a good 'stuck' petition (like mob in the wall or similar)



@Catwhoorg "Rule of Three - Finale" Arc# 1984
@Mr Falkland Islands"A Nation Goes Rogue" Arc# 2369 "Toasters and Pop Tarts" Arc#116617

Definitely, I appreciate having a real live GM to ask stuff directly.

My suggestions for future columns would regard:

How much research should we the players, expect you the GM's to use, when deciding a petitionable offence (such as but not just, name offenses)? What should we be prepared to offer a GM if we're asked for more information, versus what are things we should trust you've already got on hand?

On another note:

The OZ base! OH my goodness gracious what a gorgeous base, and a great theme!

I really enjoyed GM Lloyd's article and I'm very much looking forward to future columns. Terrific idea.

Loved the Oz base and the Task Force comic, too.

Kudos for featuring the Warriors of Oz's base - they were nice enough to give me a custom tour (they want me to film there), and I told them then that by God, they should be featured in the Scoop!

TJ likes the new GM column, so would like to extend a warm welcome to GM Lloyd.

TJ likes the comic as well.

Oh, and TJ really likes that Nivienne is now showing up in the Community Digest. Congrats Niv.






BTW, what the heck is a Community Specialist? TJ likes the sound of it, but ????


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

The link for Paragonwiki in Kyo's column is leading to the old wiki.

The new one is:

http://wiki.cohtitan.com/wiki/Main_Page

If you don't see the Titan Network logo at the top of the page, blame your ISP, not the link. Tony made the announcement 2 days ago ( we are current sometimes ).

The http://paragonwiki.com URL is again the home of Paragon Wiki.

As a lot of you probably know already, around three months ago, the Paragon Wiki parted ways from Wikia and has since been affiliated with the Titan Network. The only problem was that Wikia was still in possession of the domain name we had used since 2005, and had it redirected to an old copy of the wiki on their site that was no longer maintained by the administrators. Well, yesterday, that finally changed as we have re-obtained ownership of all rights to the domain name!

Have a Merry Festive Season!

Awwwww.... I was hoping that there'd be one more issue before the end of the year! Ah well.

No, say it ain't so Peterpeter. Yours was my most read column. I hope there is a new market guru ready to fill your column space, if I can't convince you to return.

Sadly no one has stepped forward for the market space.

That comic was obviously about the Positron Task Force. *nodnod*

Remember kids, friends don't let friends do Posi!

Also, muchas gracias to Vorac for correcting my link. It was current when I wrote the article, I swear!

Again, with TonyV's post (linked above), the paragonwiki.com link is correct:

Hey all, just thought I'd make kind of a neat announcement.

As a lot of you probably know already, around three months ago, the Paragon Wiki parted ways from Wikia and has since been affiliated with the Titan Network. The only problem was that Wikia was still in possession of the domain name we had used since 2005, and had it redirected to an old copy of the wiki on their site that was no longer maintained by the administrators. Well, yesterday, that finally changed as we have re-obtained ownership of all rights to the domain name!

That means that that the domain name ParagonWiki.com is once again pointed to the correct place, and you can once again use the name that the wiki is arguably best known by to access to the site. The Titan Network URL (wiki.cohtitan.com) still works, is still just as official, and will remain so. You still use your Titan Key to log into the wiki, which is the same as it has been since September.

With the loading tip having the old domain name and some old links still pointing to ParagonWiki.com addresses, though, I just felt that this was something that was really important to do. Also, it opens up a few more possibilities for expanding the wiki that I'm hoping to announce Soon™. In the meantime, though, which URL you use is completely up to you.

Thanks for your continued support and coolness!

Both http://wiki.cohtitan.com and http://paragonwiki.com are correct.
