My all time favorite excuse for leaving a P.U.G, which I have heard from a surprising amount of people :

"Whoops gotta go the cat is vomiting again."

Because cats vomit when upset, happy, or breathing.

Edit : First after OP redname!

"I accidently killed Synapse, do we need to restart the mission?" - The Oldest One on Lord Recluses Strike Force

Hehe, a short but very good issue!

As for the "sending people to the forums" I do that all the time. There are plenty of newcomers to the game, and I do my best to get them to come here and check things out. Or, returning players who have no clue what /gmotd might mean, or that there are already extensive notes about everything - everything - that's passed while they were playing somewhere else.

And LOL CHARLIE!

Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!
Repurposed

Upon looking again, I do hope that's supposed to be a manequin that the 'new' outfit is on.

I would expect that for at least the next month that the Scoop will be smaller due to several reasons.

Mantid is away due to real life, I'm swamped with school work (senior project), and Charlie is getting up to speed on formatting. Add to that the diminishing staff (dropping out without telling the rest that they are leaving ) and you get what we have.

Despite all of this we are still doing our best to keep up the quality for everyone and we really do appreciate the compliments!

Yes, that is Bob the Manequin. He is most helpful in figuring out what to put on people.

I am running little low on letters though, please send in pics and letters to me, Equation!

COMING SOON: A new Epic that will change the way you see Arachnos...
Brought to you by @Equation

I have a few bases in the coming issues, but I know there are moer creative bases coming out every day, please PM me if you would like to have your base featured in the Scoop.

I loved, thanks again Arby Fab!

I love our PvPEC.

"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

somebody needs to tell the GM's to update their links to Paragonwiki.

There is, no doubt, a link posted in an obvious location that I simply missed, but, where can I find all of the "back issues?" I am doing some research for when the MA goes into open Beta and would like to get my facts straight (on various topics) in the prep phase, rather than have to redesign later when I should be crafting missions.

That IS the link to Paragonwiki.

Don't believe me? Then read this post from TonyV:

Explanation in a nutshell.

The two valid domains by which you may access the Paragon Wiki are:

- paragonwiki.com
- wiki.cohtitan.com

Both are official, neither is better than the other, both go to exactly the same place.

[/ QUOTE ]
I wish people would get this idea that paragonwiki.com is not valid out of their system.

For future reference, the bad version is http://cityofheroes.wikia.com , NOT http://paragonwiki.com .
