I tend to use things like Gravtroller all the time: Bubfender, Kintroller, Illtroller. Usually just Defenders or Controllers though.

Shrug.

Got my visa application back this morning. Refused.

Bugger.

Am resubmitting, apparently the problem was that my evidence wasn't thorough enough, sigh. There goes another 315 squids down the toilet

Don't tell me they asked for the exact number of hairs on the back of you right index finger and you miscounted?

You did tell them you were a CoH veteran, I'm sure that would put you in their good books.

But seriously I hope they see sense and accept your request.

Anyway time to get back to work.

No no, that part was fine Just my work experience. Needed 4 years, and from the sounds of it the references I sent in from my jobs were lacking detail as to my responsibilities. Whatever that means. I've asked my prior bosses to rewrite something for the next submission, sigh.

I've got 28 days to do a written response to them to ask that they recheck it. I'm going to write up a load of [censored] about how software companies are very flatly organised, and that the references did show enough since there wasn't much room to move without going to Project Manager (and just out of Uni? Yah, not a good chance of that happening ). If I can convince them of that then I won't need to waste any more squids. Will try to point out the parts of the references that refer to the stuff they are after, in a round about way. Hopefully can pull it off. Sigh.

If that takes ages and fails I might not be able to resubmit even, I only have about a month and a half before that specific visa window closes up for me and I have to go for another type, which would suck as this is the best one to get.

No biggie, will work something out. I don't mind going back to New Zealand overly. It's just so faaar away

As for Dutchy, will talk to you tonight about toons matey, see what might work well with ours Am really thinking controller, since we'll all have containment all over the show, the damage would be pretty massive, heh. Would need to be a damaging holder, maybe Earth/something. Illusion isn't great at all with damage, and it's mass hold does zilch of it, which is something that we'd like to go with our mass immobs.

Oooh, maybe a fire blaster, lots of AoEs

Catch yas in a little while. I'm 99% sure we'll lose Dutch to I7 tonight anyway

Laters.

I7, what I didn't know that. that teaches me not to check the boards regular. .
Ooh the cossie I can finaly make and the elec brute Yeehaa.
Make that an 100 %

Not sure what everyone has planned this evening. I would like to get my controller to that level 11 so Tech can put Mourned to rest (may it rest in peace) and in turn release the hold up to the other Gravity controllers, so they can continue playing their own toons.

How you getting on with your Warshade Dutchy ?

You might be like Tech and not be able to get into them. It's the type of character that you could do with having a level 50 to test and respec to try out the power sets for yourself but of course that's not going to happen.

If you wanted to change the new SG name. A few suggestions (no real particular connection or reason related but just names that popped into my head)

The Facecards (Cos we're all Kings Queens and Princes (pass me a bucket oh and I ain't no queen))

International Rescue? (We have a selection of different countrymen and women)then again it's probably copyrighted (Thunderbirds are go)

Propeller Shaft (scratch that, too many double entendres ..... literally )

Alakazamreactors (Everyone has to have a keybind for this one )
Flippers ( and this one too hehehe )

As you can tell I have nothing better to do (well I have but can't be bothered really)

Catch you later (I'll see if I can think of some more .... and keep em to myself )

International Rescue isn't bad dude

So yah, I've been home sick today. Played Tech for a little while and made him a new cossie. Got Shrug to 14, so he's airbourne at last. Apart from that been sleeping off this cold/flu/whatever, sigh.

Gah I hate being sick.

Anyway I should be up for pretty much anything tonight. I don't think P will be around much, she has a bit of study to do tonight. Will see when she's in. So no rush with your little grav there Blade. Though I am looking forward to deleting Mourned, muahahaha.

I do like the name tho

Will be interested to see how dutch goes with his WS. I kinda doubt he'll like it, but we'll see. I think the best addition to our 3-grav team might have been a fire controller. They do good damage and with all the containment around... well, you've seen Hot Pants around

Think I might go see if I can find a team for bubble now.

Catch yas later.

Might I mention that Quickblaze an alt on Union is a fire controller which is why I donĀ“t want a second one .
I wouldn't mind something diffrent, but I don't know what yet. I might just experiment with some things.
Anyways Catch ya later.
Greetings D.
PS. Ascended above and beyond

Afternoon Marras, i've been really ill for a few days and haven't left my bed, but back on my feet now!

What's everyone up to tonight? Is that RP thing on? I'm leaving work at 3 to go speak to my doctor so will be home by about 4 and will be checking I7 out. I had a quick 5 mins the other to have a look but didn't really notice much difference. How's it looking?

Has anyone done Moonfire TF before? It's one i've got with Badge Hunter, but i've never done it or know anyone that has...

Hope everyone's having a good day..

Hope your not feeling too bad. There's a few people around that aren't 100%. I'm ok so far (touch wood - *rubs own head* )

Yes most of the Ascended have done the Moonfire TF. It's one of the fairly quick ones to do and up to issue 7 was done fairly easily.Not sure if any of the I7 changes have affected it.

I7 I'm happy so far. No crashes for me yet and a few good changes but too early to give any judgement. Not sure what I've planned tonight as a few people are doing RP and other things. Not sure if Tech is still off work but if so he may be online when you get back from your appointment.

Anyway I have to go for lunch. No time to check my grammer or spelling

Later guys.

I'm feeling a lot better today thanks. It's been horrible, coughing up brown gunk, pain when I breath, coughing constantly etc.

I've just noticed Tech and mysef are lined up for the 3rd round of Pv3 tonight, but i'm sure he said he had dropped out... I'll be over there from about 7 til whenever but will hop onto TS after to see what the crack is.

Cool, good to know it's not a 8 hour slugfest! If anyone is interested in rushing through it that would be great, i've got TP and invis too if any of the mission are ghostable (will have to try out the I7 changes regarding this).

Have a nice lunch dude, just finished mine..

I guys... hope everyone's feeling alot better.

Just wondering if anyone's up to anything tonight? If there's anything I would be glad to be invited to join.

Hey there, and welcome to the thread

[/ QUOTE ]

Well as far as I know there is nothing planned. Think there's been a bit of trying out issue 7 changes, costumes and other things. Also having a few alts on the other server has been eating into my time and last night the heat was too much for me and so finished earlier than I really wanted to. Might be a similar story tonight (Redhead + heat = major discomfort - never happy with the weather are we ).

Not sure what characters you have but if your concentrating on your 35 then I have a warshade character of that level (Non Ascended but still a marra ). My level 50s have a lot of tough missions. I might be tempted to get my 50 Ice Blaster out for the first time in a while and see if the animations make me feel cooler

But if you have something of level 16 then I have Red Vision my controller that I have for teaming (a few of my others are at same levels of other SG members and we play them when everyone is available and feels like playing that character).

Anyway we'll have to see if anyone has any ideas for this evening and if not maybe a few of us can sort something. If we all bring our 50s on theres a SK position available if you want it. I know I haven't done an AV yet with the I7 changes so might be interesting to see what happens.

Later all.

Heya all.

Welcome to the forums Optronix dude

Not really planned anything for a while. Definitely up to some fun over the weekend, if anyone is around. No solid plans, but definitely try to squeeze in a TF or two.

I've munjed up the base a little everyone. Sorry CGRAV I know you put a lot of work into it, but in order to fit the new stuff we needed I had to damn near delete the entire base to relayout it. Dutch has had a play with doing up a little of it too, to be honest I don't really mind who plays with decking it out, or if noone does. The buzz of bases is kinda worn off for me.

Anyway, back to the story. So a couple of patches back our base because un-base-raidable. The requirements changed. This meant that we had a load of rooms that were pretty much useless to us now, and so I deleted them. Our workshop was very VERY cluttered after adding in the new storage items, so I bought a bigger room for them, and deleted the small one.

If you enter our base now, go past the Hospital and through the control room, the new larger-sized workshop is off there. In it, I have placed all three of the tech worktables, a storage place for enhancements (can store 100), two salvage storage racks (one arcane and one tech - explanation follows), and three empowerment stations.

So I have the Tech Empowerment station next to the tech salvage rack. In this rack I'd like people to donate any natural, science, or technology salvage, for the 'good of the SG'. On the other side of the room, there is the Arcane Empowerment station, which doles out the same buffs, but for arcane salvage. Next to that is the 2nd tier arcane empowerment station, which can do higher duration buffs for arcane salvage. And next to both of them is the Arcane Salvage rack. Into this rack I'd ask people to drop their Magic and Mutation bits, for the following reasons.

The Tech Empowerment station I'd like people to not use for buffs. At least for now. If we can collect tech bits up then we can build the cooler base bits in the future.
The Arcane Empowerments are open season! They give out the same buffs as the tech, and the 2nd tier one does longer duration than the first, but burn up salvage that we frankly don't care about since we're making Tech stuff.

Now Dutch has been stealing the rare salvage that people put in there, so I guess you all might as well keep that. I think we need it to build the more extensive tech peices, so if you want to clear out your salvage then drop it on me, I don't mind using it because salvage is pretty [censored] really, and easy to find.

I'm tired and gonna stop writing now.

Shrug.

It's the middle of the day you lazy [censored]!!! lol

I'm at a work meal tonight til 9, then back to play poker so tonight is off the books.

If anyone is up for Moonfire TF over the weekend Saturday or Sunday should be good with me, or if anyone wants to do a different one then I have the alts to join in..

Tech, do you still have Cavern trial with one of your alts? If it's cool with you would you mind if we did it at some point over the weeken? I've TP and invis so like you said we could zip through it in '20 minutes'. I've tried posting a thread and have been asking for a few weeksnow but still no badge!!

What a beautiful day it is today, we went up the pub for lunch and had a 'couple' of drinks, so i'm feeling a little tipsy now and not interested in work whatsoever!


 

Posted

If your in a rush and you need an eighth for the Cavern trial just let me know I should be online but if not Tech can reach me.Same for Master of Olympus. Not sure if DK picked the badge up for that one but I don't mind going through it again. Did it with Blademan for definite but if not with DK I'd be up to using him to help. Though I expect to get that story arc myself eventually

What rare salvage I "stole" the only rare salvage was the ones I own myself.

I'm not sure you will be reading this but I don't know what I'm gona do this weekend. TF's, Trails, all sounds good. Shrug.


 

Posted

I am online now abd up for anything, should hopefully be doing Cavern shortly then after that i'm free.

I've posted a couple fo threads stating that I realy am still pised from last night so I will probably talk complete bluelocks.. haha


 

Posted

Blimey it's warm, sure does drain me of energy.
A few of us started Positron TF last night with low levels (and my lowest Union toon).

Sorry that you weren't logged at usual time Dutch but I don't think any of us realised that you eat later during the hot weather over in Holland. Plus the hot weather was probably making us impatient a bit to get started (enough of the excuses ).

Did you get your lvl30 with Badge Hunter J Dogg?

As above I decided to do the Positron TF. Have started it many times but never finished that one. Not teamed yet with you on Union J Dogg but I have a 20 controller and I think theres a few other 20s that we could join up with Lekto? sometime maybe.

Carrying on with Positron tonight I believe so that will keep me busy till 10pm maybe.

Not sure if anything else is planned this week. Weekend is off probably as I have a party and some of you guys have something in the fire ... literally (sausages/kebabs etc ). This Posi will keep some of us busy for a while but we shall have to see what the rest of the week holds.

Later guys

Yep, I dinged 30 at about 11:30 and then spent an hour or so getting another 5 or 6 exploration badges that I was waiting to get. I've managed to collect another 22 badges in the past 2 evenings so i'm happier than a pig in you know what..

Gonna have a night off tonight and catch up with what's been going on in the world.. lol

Good luck with finishing Posi tonight mate, i've had the same trouble in the past with not being able to finish it...

That would be good to get Lekto out and about, I don't play him much as he is mainly my PvP toon, but would love to get him higher so I can compete in some of the higher PvP events..

Also, Badge Hunter can now do Manticore, and the Coratoa TF so if any of you are up for either of these i'd love to organise them for sometime...

Both these are good TFs. Manticore has been in the pipeline for a while as we started it on a Sunday a few weeks ago but I went to the pictures and was not back in time to finish as well as Miss Mindreader having to drop out for some reason too. We therefore have planned to do it again on a weekend day (possibly a Sunday) with our 30+ characters but has not been arranged or written in stone as yet. You'd be welcome if the weekend was convenient for you.We'll have to get a date fixed soon.

Cya for now.

Will try to swing Manticore for 2pm Sunday.

Should be good with me..

A TF on sunday and a manticore to boot a man I Have to study a bit on sunday, I hope we can do it quicklike.
Greetings D.

It would be great if we could get seven marras. Hope you can join us Dutch and it doesn't get in the way of study.

I'm sure theres a universal law somewhere that says it's illegal to study on a Sunday.
