Will we be getting free tailor tokens this issue as well? Could really use some to customize the powers in all those slots...
I predict that "go live" will be tomorrow.

Yes, that was previously mentioned. One token per unlocked costume slot.|

Personally I've been going through my characters and using their free respecs since Issue 16 went into closed beta. I figured that there'd be a free respec, since there has been one with every Issue since I started playing.

They did it once in the long long ago, and swore they would never do it again. Something about not being able to do instanced missions for an entire weekend.

HelinCarnate:OMG it is so terrible. I have the option to take 3 more powers but no additional slots. Boo F'ing hoo.
Yeah, now that I get to thinking about it more, Friday would not be good. I'll adjust my thinking and go with Tuesday.

Horatio just announced another revision to the Custom Critter XP so that making a custom critter with no attacks would make a custom critter worth 0 XP (a bit more detailed and convoluted, but that would be the gist of it, I think it also kills the critterless Mastermind |

). This implies one more patch to Test before they go Live. I'm thinking Test patch tomorrow, and if everything works as intended, Live next Wednesday.
New story arcs coming soon (ARC IDs will be aded when I finish the arc):
So, you want to join the Hellions? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)
Sparks & Steel (level 5-20 Heroic arc)
and
So you want to join the Skulls? (level 1-14 Villainous arc)

Can I make a suggestion to have this message pop up in the GMOTD in-game before the weekend as well for the players that don't go to the forums as regularly or miss the announcement here? Just to prevent any unneeded forum ranting about "I didn't see it in time because I didn't look in the right place so I'm upset that I couldn't use it" posts again?

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwsssssssssssssssss huh? awesome! Thanks dudes!

They've NEVER released an issue to Live on a Friday. Issue 2 (as well as Issue 6) was released on a Thursday, and caused lots of problems for that weekend, but not being able to do instanced missions wasn't one of the problems.

They just added a new build to test a few hours ago - I think they might want a few days to check it out first, even if the patch notes weren't so big this time.

I wonder if SSK'ing has been fixed. I couldn't find any new posts indicating it's working better, and there wasn't anything in the patch notes/known issues.
Last I tested, it started getting buggy when you started tossing the active task around, but before that, tossing the star worked like a champ.
