Word of Warning: Don't Play When Tired

Last night while playing CoH around midnight I decided to sort out selling/buying recipes at WW before going to bed. After investing a few million in two LotG and three Aegis recipes and all the salvage required to make them (inc Magical Consipracy, Pangean Soil and Prophecy) I was a few inf short for creating them all. It was too late in the day to be doing a mission for extra inf so I went to the Field Trainer to sell odds n sods but got click happy in my tired state and sold 4 of the 5 expensive salvage pieces I had bought. Now I have to earn enough money again to buy them in WW

So my warning to you all - don't play (particularly sell) while tired

Yeah that is more or less what I thought - although mine had more swearing in it! I sold about 10 of the salvages i needed Such a sad day!!!

We've all done that at some point, but never twice

When I did it there was some unpleasant language and self flaggelation involved too!!

You have my sympathy.

I’ve not had this one happen to me, but I have a friend who is well known for falling asleep while playing the game. Playing a Tank and falling asleep mid-fight is not too bad, but now he’s playing a healer. I feel lots of face planting or running for the door about to occur.

On the bright side, at least you only sold the salvage, and not the recipes.

Last night i was playing villains some, and was on my brute Electri-Cat. Played for maybe 2 hours when my brain suddenly stopped functioning.
I was standing in the back line, trying to blast the enemies and i remember going "why the hell won't my attacks fire?", what i failed to remember was that i was playing a melee char and not a ranged one...

Lol it is amazing how many people play when tired and it does have some amazing effects! The good thing about it is that at the end of the day it is only a game and nothing real has been lost/affected. Sure it may take a little while to earn inf again to repurchase - but I would be playing anyway (Or I can swap some from an alt)

The curious thing about this is for it to happen, 5 inf must have been the highest existing bid!!

There are sure some tightwads in this game.

Maybe not a bad idea, list all the purples, and any which don't have any bids in put in a 5 inf bid myself and wait for someone to make a mistake...


I really should do something about this signature.

I can soo sympathise there, there has been a couple of timeswhen I have been roped in by sg buds to do a late tf or mish arc, only to wake up to a screen full of tells, my character randomly running/flying into a corner and a nice keyboard/waffle grid on my face.

Or the time i bought a full LoGT set with the expensive salvage but ran out of space for the last of the cheap ones so (in my wisdom - couldve just stored some in WW for later disposal) went to the nearest store and (as the OP did also) spam clicked everythin off, i cant even remember what the salvage was I lost, as my eyes were filled with too many tears
