    Standing by for the inevitable drama.

  8. *All merit rewards are bugged. Anyone completing a story arc or task force will have merits REMOVED from their inventory upon completion. Please bear with us as we will definitely look into this issue after we finish with the Cathedral of Pain revamp.

    *Supergroup leaders now have the ability to set an 'Invite Buff' on other players. This special buff will invite the affected player to the Super Group every 15 seconds for the next 24 hours. If accepted, the players influence and enhancements are immediately converted into prestige for the supergroup.

    Castle
    Synapse (Fast Metabolism, you know)
    Positron
    Infernal
    Faultline
    Citadel

    About two days to figure out the idea, and another four to do the gruntwork( Record solo video, Demo-edit it, find actors, record actor bits, Demo-edit it, fill in missing parts, re-record bad section, demo-edit it, get a group going for the 2 3-4 actor parts(Thank Nibzy!) Demo-edit. Splice, Transitions, Titles) Then about 6 hours of Rendering and waiting for Youtube to finish processing it.

    Some little tidbits about this one:

    -The movie was comprised of 104 separate videos put together.

    -Raw footage for the movie took up 14 gig.

    -AngieB played Castle and Miz Nibbles played Synapse. All other players in the Spanky's Boardwalk scenes were demo-placed using the position of those two and Ash/BABs.

    -In the Statesman scene, if you look closely you can see he was defeated by Clockwork Gears.

    -Doctor Brainstorm and Blue Steel are the only men in other scenes which did not end up dancing with BABs. Doctor Brainstorm was not there because Citadel begged the others not to invite him. Blue Steel wasn't there because BABs, Castle and Synapse are mad jealous of his epic dance skills.

    Mistakes/Demo Edit Oddities

    -The demo code for /em Hmm is MOV PLOTTING and the demo code for /em plot is MOV SCHEME (this messed me up for a while)

    -Ashcrafts big'ol'head got in the way in the scene flying down the boardwalk to BABs so I ended up replacing his model with that of a Croatoa sprite, which gave the snow effects seen there.

    -I goofed several times and left the cursor on screen( new version of FRAPs didn't set cursor removal) The worst is in the Citadel section where I knock the cursor away from Citadel while he cowers. By the time I noticed it would have taken at least four hours to fix it. After four days of working on it, I said Meh.

    -Accidentally recorded Castle in front of the wrong box in the into conversation. Whoops!

    -In the Infernal scene, Baby New Year is actually standing on a cup on the bar if you look closely. I have no idea why this happened as I recorded the model placement on the barstool.

    -In the Blue Steel scene, that was shield charge being used but the demofile wouldn't reproduce it as it was in game. The monsters he was killing? Babbage, Paladin and the Clockwork King. Babbage managed to survive, the scoundrel.

    -In the last Sis Psyche/ Manti scene Manticore was supposed to be invisible behind her but the democode wouldn't let him be actually invisible so I had to use the youtube tags to sorta make sense of the scene.
