7 year retirement ends tonight!

I was looking to see what characters I had available for tonights invasion on Freedom and I found this character:



I made him on the first day of the 3-day headstart, Sunday 25th of April 2004, but realised I had chosen the wrong server (I had meant to choose Victory, where the other EU people would be playing)

So, he has been offline for over 7 years. Tonight, I think its fitting that he comes out of retirement to fight some Praetorians!


Always remember, we were Heroes.

Q: How do you wreck an Abrams?

A: You crash into another one.

Doing nothing for seven years makes for a good epic?


Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Well, they don't cover every moment of Ulysses on his epic journey of ten years, so could be.

I've been waiting for the name Darkspeed to open up on Freedom for 6.9 years!!!

And after about half an hour, helping take down a Goliath Warwalker in Atlas park and defending the Steel Canyon University, Darkspeed met his end when Marauder defeated him at Royal Overlook. (I didn't actually see it happen, as lag was so bad, but the combat log says he got hit with Nova Fist)

Honestly, not a fun experience in terms of gameplay (it was more a slide show) but hey, I got a badge!

Ya, the events are not really to fun to participate in gameplay wise due to the technical issues, they are fun in the social sense only. And frankly, just frustrating most of the time.

Logging onto Freedom, I'm having my doubts about the clock you guys are keeping over there.



So it has been a while since I logged onto Freedom but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been 11+ years.

Wouldn't matter; all you get is the badge. He'll have to log out for another 7 years to get a lot of powers.

Mender characters mess with anniversary badges. One of mine has the Fetus Anniversary badge, while another has the Revolutionary War badge. (I think he was logged out for 100,000 days.)

heh, just did a quick check; oldest toon I have that has been offline is only for 2590 days heh....

He's on Pinnacle.

Edit:

But I remember seeing either on my account or my friend's account where the offline day tracker was way off, like had a toon that had 8k days offline heh.
