Kidnap a Newbie

Who would like to start a campaign of "Kidnap a Newbie"?

The idea is simple... Some of us team and get a few newbies to meet the game. To find the regular content beyound the AE. To start a little paradigma shift in a simple way... Maybe get then to do the Croatoa Storyline (one of the best), or get the Wedding Ring (so they can see that there is rewards not covered on AE), or even do a Hess TF...

Also introducing then to the concept of SK and EX as it is on the rest of the game...

Can you imagine the shock when they run a Eden and reach the biggies?

Yes. I can get lost on a straight-line map.

If we kindnap them, do we have to feed them? I really don't want to share any of my pizza or cookies with a farking newb.

There is nothing that says you have to "feed" them, tho..ive heard rumors that feeding them "content & storylines" with sides of "experience and humor" will make them grow up to be "real gammers" not just AE pl'd newbs.

Great Idea Kay!!!

Have you already got a spot set out for hiding the bodies?

Wonderful idea, Kay.
I did this for a while, prior to AE, and i slowly got out of the habit. Glad you brought it up.

I have some 20ish and 30ish heroes i have been doing mostly contacts and radios with. I'd like to team with you and yours.

Oh and no defenders for me (Pepsi take note)

To make a short story long, I have been off-line fixing and re-fixing my computer all week and I finally logged on last night. I ended up on a lowbee PUG. How did that happen? I was not really interested in doing something major. I was just happy to be on, enjoying a faster harddrive and a better MoBo. Wow, what an improvement. I started playing with the hero creator and fiddling around with a couple of alts in Atlas Park:
<ul type="square"> [*] Richard Grizzly PI, (I blame Pepsi.)[*] Joe Mojito, (I learned how to make Mojitos last weekend.)[*] and Gagora, (The spam lady)[/list]
Disclaimer: I have, in the past, been subjected to what I think is extremely unfair criticism about my characters. You know who you are. I have valid, well thought out reasons for all my characters, though I sometimes can't remember them the next day. But they are valid. The Grizzly thing is all Pepsi's fault. I tried to make a girl grizzly but it was just so wrong that I could not do it. Furry bear-babes were not meant to be. Where was I?

Oh yes, then I saw a call for a sewer team. “What’s this?” thought I, “someone in Atlas park who wants to do something other than AE farming? “

I recalled Kay’s post and thought, “Well, why not?” So I send the reply and get an immediate invite, the team was almost full already and in we go. I guess the newbies sort of kidnapped me. Not everyone of the team was new but some were. I was initially focused on getting my buttons squared-away. Things were happening faster and faster. I was on a DM/Regen scrapper: fast is good. The team smashed through the first few groups and I felt the first whiff of scrapper-lock flowing around me. I was either that or gas, or perhaps fumes from my mojito. Anyway, I need more ways to hurt things so I started pulling out vet powers to cobble together something vaguely resembling an attack chain.

But first a word about Stone/Kinetics controllers. They rock. No, what I mean is right out of the box they are just awesome. Try it, you’ll like it. We had one on the team as well as a WP/EM tank. An outstanding combination! Back to the story…

I whomped a bad guy with my trusty Nemesis whompin'-stick and then summoned a buff pet. Then the tells start coming in. Some of the players were new enough that they had not seen or heard of these things. They were very polite, a rare thing these days, but very curious and eager to learn more. Well, my typing skills are not that great and I did not want to sit there jabbering when there was stuff to hit. I answered a couple questions and then offered to re-unite with two of them and play again this week. Don’t know if that will happen but I hope so. We went on for about an hour I guess, made it through the center sewer nexus and went up toward King’s Row. Like all good things, eventually pillows were calling and the team had to separate. I hope I get a chance to see them again.
