What is wrong with this picture?

I can't seem to place it, but something about this league strikes me as a touch... off. Could someone perhaps help me to enumerate my concern?



For the record, I think I pieced together how to reliably cause this to occur, but since I was on Team 1, and not Team Overfill, I didn't have a chance to see if the Shift+Number shortcut went all the way down to Teammate 9

My goal now is to see if we can get a team up to 10 or higher. I fully expect this to crash the game if successful, but it is worth it, for science!

It was a bug involving the LFG Teleporter. I want to see about getting more people onto a team using this, but I don't know all of the specifics of it yet. I fully intend to try to put together a team of 10 or so people if I can make this work, then trying to do a TF with said team :3

Of course, that assumes it isn't fixed before I have the chance.

You are quite correct! I've played on Justice since July 2004, barring brief forays onto other servers due to downtime.

The horrible, garish colours, the bloated, ugly menus, the over-large goofy buttons, the unnecessary gradients... Oh, where do I start?

Is that really what it would look like if I lost all sense of reason and swapped to the new teaming interface?

Actually, that's the league window. I haven't tried it with the old interface (which actually isn't the same as it was before leagues, but that's neither here nor there)

Or if you ever use the league interface.

I rather like the new Team interface, with it taking far less room on-screen than the old interface.

The league interface isn't bad either, I just wish it remembered my customizations each time I joined a new league. I like my leagues to all line up in a single row on the top-left corner of the screen, but the default has it in two rows.

Justicites UNITE!! (I also play on Infinity... though only with heroes, and all of my villains live on Justice).

OT: Interesting bug.

I'm pretty sure that Shift-9 wouldn't have worked, but that's only because no one would have bound it to "team_select 9" in the first place.

Also, since GMs (and developers, and other NCsoft folks) can enter teams at will, I believe this is how a regular eight-person team in a league would look like once a GM added himself to the team (maybe to assist with a /petition).

I'm not saying that one player in team overflow is a GM, just that I think it works the same way. I never saw two GMs joining the same full team yet, but I wouldn't really expect the game to crash from that.

And just for the record, I probably would have used the word "odd".

All I know is that the League chat chime is hideous.

Speaking of the league chat chime, I wish there was an option to enable a notification sound for any channel you're in and set a different one for each. I've got enough tabs open that I can't see all my channels at all times and sometimes end up accidentally ignoring a good friend of mine. If I could assign a ding to my channels, that'd be awesome.

the league window will not change regardless of which team window option you have set
