Hey Everyone..

Quote:I love Si's idea- Dibs on Ami Winehouse
Suggestions to make the roast work:
Pick one person and have all "skits/dialogue" submitted and checked for content.
There can be different settings for a roastee. Meaning let the organizers know beforehand what is off limits. +3= Anything goes pertaining to coh gameplay leave all real life out...+4= Anything goes.
well.. hmm.
Another Issue that i thought of was the fact that according to some statistic from PERC, approx only 10-15 % of the player base reads and visits the forum... some servers may be a bit higher (hello! cat people...)
now while this roast may be appealing, it would be difficult getting the word out with the "rules" and getting the skits/dialogue returned and checked in a timely manner from other members in the Champion Community...
Now.. what I was kind of toying with was having pre-recorded things done and perhaps reserving a night on Dazz's show and having them played there.. We could have various sound effects added in and the content could be controlled that way.. Pick a roastee/volunteer and ask them for a list of potential roasters and go from there... We could obviously get multiple people in the same night (thats what she said!) I know Dazz gets a lot of listeners during his show..
its still a work in progress in my head, but, thats the general idea..
Clearly this isnt something the entire community would participate in. The average person wandering around wouldnt most likely know Budweiser (well. they would if they start off in AP.. zing!) But i think there are enough "in the know" that it could be fun, if done right.

Quote:The only issue I'm gonna have with it is deciding what powers to put in their place; just about every build I have just gained 3 new powers, but I won't have any slots to spare for them. So I'm thinking Concealment for three LoTG spots, or SJ/SS (thank you, City Traveller).
But now the crochety old-timer in the back of my head is doing a spit-take with his daily Metamucil, vividly flashing back to a time when the game was rigid, inflexible, capricious, unyielding and occasionally cruel. A part of him is still there, fighting through buggy task-forces, wearing the exact same costume he put on his first day in Outbreak. This tether to a bleak past occasionally obscures the gleaming wonders around him, things he long believed to be impossible; Ouroboros, power customization, Ultra Mode, switching sides. And even now they whisper of incarnates, a power that, even in the Age of Inventions, sounds impossible. And as the old-timer reflects on these things he looks outside his window and watches the kids playing with akimbo pistols.
They'll never know how good they have it, he thinks. He turns his head to look at a wall nearly covered with picture frames of all shapes and sizes, all containing faded screenshots, forum posts and articles from the official site, in roughly chronological order from left to right. 18 Issues, 6 years and change, what feels like a lifetime. He thinks back to the kids outside. But do they have it too good? A part of him wants them to go back to those dark days and fight the battles he fought for 6 years for what they now enjoy. A selfish thought, he concedes. He realizes that what they now enjoy is something more than the work of a development team, but a community collaboration. He realizes too that the things that made the game hard were rarely the things that made it good. They were hurdles, obstacles, and there was a sense of achievement in leaping over them in the early days, but now his knees are weak and his feet are tired.
He gets up from the table and walks to his front door. He opens it and steps out onto the sidewalk of a busy downtown street. He has one last flashback, a day he would never forget, and three simple words.
I can fly.
And he still can.
loves it. -

Quote:This. Unless some unforseen event happens, I'm pretty sure we will be doing this. And as an added bonus, the SG Hazy's Garage is offering a reward to the person that gets the killshot on Hami, a purple of their choice or one of the better uniques (numi, miracle, lotg)

yes, that way incase the owner/admins of said vents kick you for personal reasons, you have other places to go.

Quote:oohh!Since Cherry is always calling us Rockstars...Lets Rock and reRoll Night
Take your mains name and reroll as a Rockstar.
Names should be no problem for example Cherry-Ga Ga
Include a costume contest, Dance contest(should be fun if ppl have the new emotes)
Mission teaming and Cleaning up Perez Park and the Hollows.
All contestants must be level 1. A fun meet and Greet.(Would love to see some make a
complete Band.)
Open this Party up to all servers to come and Rock and roll an Alt on Champ.
see that right there... ROCKSTAR!

There's too many egos, too much dramatic history, and I think that people would take advantage o' it to essentially have a free pass to insult someone/vent their transgressions against that they normally wouldn't have the testicular fortitude to do otherwise.
It's all well and good to have a thick skin and try and not take things personal, but at some point someone is goin' to get offended or feel the need to defend themselves from the slings and arrow o' outrageous exaggerations and/or outright lies.
*i should add that I had been pondering ways to pull this off but in the end, what cobalt said is true. 1 wrong thing gets said and its gonna get ugly, no matter what you do or how you try to avoid it. It would be something fun to do in a persons circle of friends/coalition sg's etc etc but to have a bunch of random people that are new/dont know you it has the potential to be hurtful -
