Hey folks,

We on the OCR team just wanted to give a big thanks to all of you who have participated in the Official Forum Games over the last months! Throwing these games and being amazed at your creativity, ingenuity, and sheer brilliance has definitely humbled us and made us appreciate even more what a fantastic community City of Heroes has.

With the upcoming launch of Going Rogue we’ll be taking a break from forum games for a while, things around here are sure to be plenty exciting for quite some time and we do want enough time to dream up some new more exciting games for you to enjoy!

Thanks again,

-The OCR Team-

Awww, they were great fun Be sure to keep the screenshot one when they are back.

Also, they better return before there are new costume codes

It's been a lot of fun. The games played have definitely brought a greater sense of community to our already awesome culture here. I appreciate the OCR Team for taking the time each week to play the games and I appreciate the players for their particiation.

This is yet another notch in our community belt above the rest out there.

Thanks for the fun and I look forward to the games returning after GR.

Any chance of the rules changing to allow worldwide entries once this comes back? This whole bit makes me sad: "(d) you must be a resident of the United States (excluding the State of Rhode Island, and excluding Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. territories, military installations and commonwealths), Canada (excluding Quebec) (Canadian residents will be required to answer an additional mathematical question in order to claim their prizes), or the European Union."

If the prizes were physical things that needed shipping I would understand, but forum titles and costume codes? I've been quite disappointed that I'm not eligible to participate in any of the games.

Translation: We've run out of Paragon and Rouge Isles themed stuffs for our contests, so we have to wait until Post-GR so that we can use it.

Thanks for the fun games, and I can't wait for their return!! Screenshot the Spot post-GR should be interesting. No more 2 second winners. >.> <.<

Thanks for an awesome time and all these great little treats. I hope next round we see all the old favorites and some new ones (Like the Ghoul code from SDCC)

I for one won't miss them because I could never take part in them (except maybe the caption craziness ones) because they were a first come 1st serve contest and they started at 1 pm est and I don't have access to a computer until 3:30. Well after a winner has been found.

I hope in the future Screenshot and Crossword (or their equivelant) are made drawing from people who answered correctly so people who aren't at home/work with a computer can join in.

Course it probably won't matter because after August 4th I won't be posting here anymore if the ban on video game discussion sticks.

Aw.

Even though I didn't participate as much as others, I still loved watching everybody else give them a shot. Man, you guys can come up with hysterical captions!

I can hardly wait for Going Rogue, now you're giving me something else to wait for!?! This is so maddening!

Heh, we have to prove that we're intelligent enough to use the prize :P

Hoping for the return of the screencap caption contest, so I can actually remember to participate in it! Thanks for all your organizingm though!

PS: I miss ol' Niviene, too. If you know where she's hiding, say hi! Or something.
