I'm kidding, of course. They're usually pretty good about that sort of thing... But with recent history being what it is, and the new servers apparently being the evil monstrosities that they are, you never know.
Don't you hate to be right?

So in other words on my only day off this week the game will be offline........................

Um... does anyone know where the costume contests are being held?

It also looks like Avatea edited the original post yesterday around the same time she posted her update above, so she was probably highlighting the change she made to the OP.

I'm pretty sad with the costume contest, where i can only attend to 1, the Historical with a twist. The other 2 are at 02.00 till 04.00 and being weekdays, but those are exactly the 2 i had in mind

(i assume some of 'our' famous historical figures are not quite famous oversea? As we dont own any right of famous historical superheroes, i gues its only related to reallife people?)

I didn't win at the costume contest (which I only made it to by being late for work :3), but because of it, I was able to catch this cute little shot.


The Beta is full of bugs? How can that be?!

I'm very disappointed in the inconsistent statements you've made about level pacting and the VIP head start.

The VIP Head Start period, based on your posting of activities, lasts until this Friday, Sep 23.

You explicitly told us that Level Pacting, while going away, would be available through the VIP Head Start period.

Then today, I get a patch, log in and discover you've disabled the feature PRIOR to the end of the VIP Head Start period and WITHOUT WARNING that you were doing so. Even a simple "Hey, Level Pacting ends tomorrow!" would have been nice.

Why did you do this?

yup, that's the same answer I'm looking for. No one's bothered to respond yet. Pretty shoddy behavior for this CS team.

You mean like this one? Where they said on 9/19 level pacts would be turned off on 9/20?

Granted, yes, they *DID* say level pacts would last until after the head start has ended, which it hasn't. But they *did* give notice, which you seem to be under the impression that they did not.

OK, you got me...I didn't see notice of level pacts ending inside a server maintenance announcement. Shame on me.

But it still contradicted their earlier commitment that we'd have Level Pacts available through the entire VIP Head Start program.
