Mids has probably changed the way people play CoX more than anything else, thanks!

Thank you Mids for creating the best tool for this game and then had the courage of passing it to someone else.
I hope that we will bump again in-game (or any other game)!
And please don't let them change it's name.

Well, of course. MaX did point that out in his post, even if only slightly.

But anyway, thank you Mids for your awesome designer, and thanks for helping out the community for free, hope you do well wherever you may go!

EDIT: I'll go back into my little hole now.

Despite the amount of time people have played around with your builder, some people may of played more with it than the game I think, but you had actually saved them a hell of a lot of time really. You've helped a hell of a lot of people in so many ways both direct and indirect. Possibly by doing so, you've probably done the Devs, also a favour.

I can only thank you on behalf of myself and so will as it's the very least I can do. Thank you.

Alas, the time has come for me to retire from development and maintenance of Mids' Hero/Villain Designer.
It's sad to say, but I'm not able to give it the level of attention and time that I could in the past.

So, with that in mind, I've taken the difficult decision to pass it on to someone who can give it the level of commitment it needs, as I'd very much like it to remain available and useful as a resource for the CoX community.

Steiner at the Titan Network has agreed to take it on, and will be handling future updates and such. Though I'm sure I'll be checking up on him from time to time to keep him on the straight and narrow.

I'd like to thank the community as a whole for the support and positive feedback you've always given me, I've very much enjoyed my tenure as 'planner guy'.

If your mouse has greater processing power than your gfx card, the answer is yes.

Mids hero designer has proved such an asset to me ever since I downloaded it.

Just wanted to say thanks for all your work on it Midnights, and to wish all the best.

Wonderfully designed app, well laid out and with more options and information than you could shake a stick at. Was really impressed by it from the word go. Thanks for all your hard work Mids and thanks to Steiner for taking over development.

Ooh, good point. Well worth it for the use I've had from it (hell it'd be worth it just to support the excellent application design used).

Ditto. Although i've only ever recently started using it. I do know the time and effort you've spent in the last few years. /e salute you for that.

You've done a great job with the builder Mids. It is probably the thing that has most changed the way I play the game.

I love planning toons and seeing what kind of monsters I can turn different powersets into. Also it helps me getting the most out of my existing characters. Great job with it, indeed. Also I have to thank you for not giving up on the project when running out of time, but rather passing it on to someone else. Great job, again!

Thank you Mid!

i bet half don't even know what it's for.....

Thank you for the best character planner I have seen in any MMO so far. Some of my toons might have never seen the light of day or suffered an ignoble end if not for the insight the Designer offered.
I hope Steiner will do you proud and carry on the good work.

Take care Midnights, and thanks.
