The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
Oh, I remember that now, haha!
Always nice to see a friendly wager.

Umm I think Darth won! Dude I can't stop umm staring...
Within two weeks or less (memory's a bit hazy) after the copyright-name bug showed up in AE, I was told in an email response to my /bug report that the devs had tried a fix but it hadn't worked so they were looking at something else.
Last time I ever expect the devs to do something obviously necessary in a timely manner. Arc was indeed set up to lose...
I think it is safe to say that all blame for this not being done is due to this bet and the developers rigging it.
Praise to the Gull!

The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.

I think the important take way here is that once Arcanaville posts her picture, can we please get these options into the Options menu rather than from a stupid NPC located in one zone? Please? And put the difficulty sliders in the Options menus too, while you are there. |

There isn't a UI team, that's why our UI updates suck so bad, and why their time is so valuable - they're doing something more important, like animations or power design or whatever.

I'd say, for the sake of objectivity, they're doing something different, not "more important".

For some reason both test and beta have been down all weekend, so I didn't have an opportunity to take care of this. The gaming gods want to draw out my shame, or possibly Television did it when no one was looking because there's just not enough people in the new project to torture yet.
Will have to find a quiet time on live now. A very, very, very quiet time.
Also, there used to be a UI team, or something that passed for it, although with all the restructuring there may not be one now.
It was said that when the UI for the game needed to be changed, they would select one from among their number to fast, and purity their soul, and then set out into the countryside with only the clothes on their backs and rain from the sky to sustain them, until their minds were as clear as a lake of glacier melt, whereupon the gaming gods would pass unto them a power almost beyond reckoning, and they would rush back as fast as their calloused feet would take them, back to where the Great Server lay, and the energy they contained would flow from them into it, and it would coalesce into wonderous forms.
And that's just for a radio button. The reason we don't get pulldown menus is because NCSoft refuses to advertise job opportunities for female virgins.

Are you gonna wear a funny hat? See, i got this thing for funny hats....
Hey, remember back in the i20½ beta, when I said "if the Null to Gull options go live without being part of the Options UI, they never will", and you said that it was just a stopgap? And then you proposed we make a bet on who was right?
As my note dictates, this was your post for the terms of how the bet would be decided:
I don't really need anything in-game. So we'll make the bet something more intangible. Whoever loses must post a picture of themselves bowing before Null the Gull while extolling the foresight of the other.
Which actually levels the playing field tremendously, because there are devs that would deliberately delay the change to I23.5 just to see me have to do that.
