Not everyone reads the BMT MotD. Not everyone reads the Champion Forums. Not everyone checks the Events Calendar. Not everyone has a Facebook account. However, there's a good chance a fair percentage o' the population would be informed if an Event were posted to all aforementioned places. Again, for your benefit.
I can't help but concur! They are vehicles for those who are used to checking said reference. But word of mouth is a key tool into getting the word out. That's one of the elements I love about Champion server!

It'd be like posting your resume online and waiting for someone to call you instead of pounding the pavement and putting yourself out there. Why cripple yourself by limiting your options?!

Apologies for derailing your thread, Crusherina.

Yeah pretty much Philly, I admire his retraction/apology and deleting the posts. As far as it getting out of hand, there was no need to post and be inflammatory in the first place.

So, the apology wouldn't have been needed if a certain party would have not felt the need to be negative to begin with. Thank you again Sep for your time putting this together and thank you Avatea for the sticky!

Yeah, trolling here is fairly common. Most just look the other way and move on.

If I could figure out how to do it, I would post a picture of Steve Urkel saying, "Did I do that?"

Sorry, guys. Like I said, every time I post a reply on here, I get my head bit off. I think my sense of humor gets lost in the translation or something.

I am a 52-year-old retired computer programmer with a lot of spare time who likes to play games, and specifically, this game. I never meant to stir up any conflict. I apologize for posting. I may be a five-year veteran on Champion, but I am still a forum board noob. I started this brouhah by asking a question that I thought was innocent enough, and I never meant any harm by it.

Let me reiterate this, though: Excellent guide, never meant to disrespect the work that was put into it.

One other thing, this is for Cobalt. Sorry, dude, but what happened was this (wish I had actual transcripts, but I dont): I asked Cherry Cupcakes to change the MotD, to add an event. She said she couldn't, unless it was scheduled in the Calendar of Events. In other words, putting it on the CoE was a NECESSARY condition to putting it on the MotD. When I asked how to get something put into the Calendar of Events, THEN she SUGGESTED I put something on the boards. THAT was the suggestion. The suggestion was NOT that I COULD put it on the boards, but that putting something on the boards would be how to get something into the Calendar of Events, and then eventually on the MotD. Sure, having something on the boards, on the CoE, on the FB page, all make sense NOW, but at the time, I just wanted one thing: the MotD. You can say that that was for my benefit if you want, but to tell you the truth, I would have never even started this thing if she had just added a message to the MotD, because I would have never gone to the boards. I'm not blaming Cherry Cupcakes, either. She was just doing her "job". Im just trying to get my facts straight.

Please don't bite my head off over this, Cobalt. I mean no harm. I'm just trying to understand what it is that I am supposed to be doing. And I am sure that my reply is probably in the wrong place, not relevant, and has a few spelling mistakes. That's why I try to stay OFF the boards: I figure my $0.02 is somehow interfering with REAL work. The devs have enough to read without having to moderate my posts. So, maybe I am not google-literate, as Sep suggested. I am willing to admit, I'm not forum board-literate, obviously. If my asking one question caused all this, I will not be visiting the boards again any time soon. But let me say this: very few times have I ever been DISCOURAGED to ask questions, like I feel I have been this time. I won't be asking any more questions on here any time soon.

And I'm sorry if I went over any word limit in this or my previous post, I'm trying to avoid being misunderstood.

And I'm sorry for not adding any graphics.

There, have I apologized to everybody?

There was obviously a misunderstanding, so let's just leave it at that. It happens, right? Not a big deal and doesn't require a lengthy explanation or apology. Might I suggest that you contact the people involved directly (not via The Pretty Ouroboros Badge/Temp Power Guide thread). I.e., Send a tell or PM to Cherry Cupcakes and possibly the other BMT moderators if you would like to go through them to get your event added. For example, Braije and Myrmydon, who have also posted in this thread, are both BMT moderators. Perhaps one of them could assist you with this matter.

The 1st time I heard about any of this was lastnight when You sent me a tell during the Hamikazi. You asked me if I would MoTD it, I said sure and I did. (i had noticed it posted on the calendar earlier)

Not that there are lots of cherry cupcakes running around but I think you may have confused me with a diff mod? I havnt been in game that much recently. To be honest, I think only twice this past week.

Anyway. It seems to be worked out now.

Nothing you have actually said here is really something they tend to Mod, to tell you the truth. If you would like tips on how to get Modded in the forums, I should be able to give you a couple, since they do Mod me from time to time.


My sarcastic sense of humor doesn't translate well with the written word either, so I just accept that as a consequence. Maybe that could work for your peace of mind as well, Grandpa (It's not often that I get to call a fellow player that ).

It was myself, not Cherry, and unfortunately there was a lot of confusion involving what I did say. I initially told you I had no problem adding it to the MotD as long as there was room, you just had to give me the information. Then I went on to ask if you had tried posting it on the forums, and noted that I usually use the events calendar and the forums to change the MotD. Sorry for the confusion.

The new 'Trainee" Arcs have been posted.

They are at the bottom as to be grouped up.

Badges are not given to the whole party, Leader Only.

Some Arcs need to be done before you may do the 'Badge' arc, although it may be listed regardless of if it is actually unlocked or not.

New Site: ouroguide.tripod.com

There is apparently a bug within An Instant Army, Anti-Matter does not seem to count.

Unai arc needs looking into for Multidimensional badge gain.

Some people are having issues selecting accolade arcs.

Added a new page with merit rewards for each arc above 1 merit (badge arcs usually give one or two but will not be listed).

Updates soon.

Any questions or comments, let me know.
