Coffee Talk Highlights: Coffee Burps, Knitting, VIP-ness, Tangents, now 100% Content Free!

Zwill has a second webcam now, but it's kind of crappy.

We get a shot of 7decoure, and of course my screencap software is still not installed.

Zwill has been staying late working on powerpoint.

Talk about Zwill donating a hat to Real World Hero.

Zwill talks about a new, as yet unseen hat for the Pummit and complains about the Hat Club membership card. It's black on black.

Zwill shills hat companies, tangents about hat prices and has a small talk about corporate shilling and Dr. Pepper.

Talk about the forum log out thingy, apparently the idle cookie is set to log you out if you've not done anything on the forum for 1 hour.

There is also the random logout bug, which is seemingly due to a load-balancing issue.

Zwill thanks the Seattle tech people for the forum fixing in the future.

TANGENT: Knitting and crocheting and day care costs in California.

Audible coffee burp.

Zwill shows a picture of Lydia's VIP scarf that she knitted. Zwill says it shows her VIP (long pause) -itude. He notes he almost said VIP-ness.

Massive Tangent: Newsies.

They are going to Ustream some of the panels, one from each track.

My poor arms.

1:07 coh_beastyle: Hellkat, start growing more arms
1:07 hellkat9940: My spider serum got lost in the mail.
1:07 CoHSteelclaw: Hellkat: subcontract
coh_beastyle: Can you use the centipede serum?

They will start at 10:30 AM Pacific, and start the Ustream at 9:30ish.

Talk about the Flowbee haircut. TunnelRat suggests getting a cat from a shelter, give it a flowbee cut, and offer it to be adopted for charity, since the guy who won the contest may be bald.

Zwill sings showtunes.

Talk about prizes for the Pummit raffle.

"Any hints as to what will be on sale in the Paragon Market during Black Friday and Cyber Monday?"

Zwill calls over Ghost Falcon.

GF: "Stuff. A lot of that will be revealed at the player summit."

Zwill: "As wells as some other stuff. There are a lot of sale items on Black Friday."

They are going to test some lower prices on items that people have been saying are too expensive.

There are changes to Titan Weapons in beta builds, but not on live builds.

Thanks for doing this. I came down with something this past weekend and I'm just beat, couldn't even get out of bed to join the UStream today. I guess my questions'll have to wait for next week. Sure, I *could* post them here, but then I wouldn't get to see the reactions to the questions.

Thank you for the notes, Von Krieger! Good luck with that centipede serum on Saturday.


FYI, here is the picture Zwillinger shared of the scarf:



(No, not me in the picture. I sweetly asked another CoH player to help model. I was behind the camera. )

More pictures and info on the scarf are at http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=277917. I am excited to have finally had a medium to show my fandom for City Of Heroes.

Thank you everyone for being an awesome community - from Samuraiko's videos to your write-ups, Von Krieger, to the Best Costume thread, and more! It's the vast array of talents that convinced me I could give something a try, too.

Also, Freitag has started a thread so art submission can be posted straight to the forums to be featured on the Ustream chats instead of having to dig through Von Krieger's posts for the email address. Thank you, Freitag!

Unfortunately, it doesn't take an hour for it to consider me idle and log me out. I've had it log me out after 30 minutes of being idle. I haven't been getting the random logout bug that others have, only the idle log out.

And if it's a detailed discussion with lots of information to digest, it sometimes logs me out before I can go to the next page. I guess that's what I get for having it set to 100 posts per page.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

Lesee: Forum doesn't like add-ons like the Copy Tool, and kills them. Forum randomly logs people out because pancake you, that's why. Twice we've had scheduled forum maint, and twice it's been cancelled.

Solution: Nuke vBB, and move to IBPro.

Lack of development letters, skinny info in the coffee U-strems...

If we did, could we get the City Scoop back? vBB was what killed that for us.

Does that mean we're getting some emotes for the dog pet?

(What? Somebody had to ask.)

That is likely the other part of the problem - the load balancing bug. Between web page hits, it could be sending your request to a different server. That server doesn't recognize your session, decides it's crap, and tells your browser to nuke it. Voila! Instant unhappy forumite, just add logout.

Maybe. I've been toying with some ways to bring it back despite vBB.

how big is "rather big" exactly? like a small rib, or a humerous? Maybe a femur? Or are we talking like t-rex bones?
