Quote:when you posted that i thought it might be because of 1 of 2 reasonsI found it odd last night when I logged into my hero "Police Officer" in the middle of AP that someone asked me if I was a dev.
Got me thinking that if I was a dev, that would be a good name to use.
1. the cool name
2. the fact that gms when they fixed a bug for a mish/tf /event appear in a police drone sometimes or as a npc -

hi all since event is coming up thought might want to practice have two days planned for it . in headline i mispelled today as todat .....
Thursday 31st 2009
5p/6m/7c/8e
Speed master of imperious taskforce randomization.....
Friday 1st 2010
5p/6m/7c/8e
Speed master of imperious taskforce randomization.....
also would be practice for me running event ...
for those of you who forgot
Speed MOITF for 1 billion influence/infamy prize. Randomized pugs (pick up groups) are sent to do the imperious task force with no deaths no temps
(4 missions) whoever does it in fastest time and without deaths or using temps win ( must see moitf badge at end)
1 billion / 8 = 125 million to each participant. ( in infamy or influence)
so far volunteer leaders:
Black Marrow
Maxi
i figure 150 in zone / 8 = 7 teams so looking foward to more people volunteering as leaders...
also so far im only judge....
for more info pm me in forum or in game @cienfuegos or @cienfuegos2 -

I know its a possible outcome but as stated above there are things you can reduce the taxation and there are places/situations that CAN be avoided in the ITF
I'll be there after a Dr Q -
Quote:hate to say it but i think devs were right about taking it away people were exploiting it....Seems to me another fairly simple possibility is giving the players (back) the ability to affect the difficulty in TFs/SFs (being able to increase it -- for purposes of this discussion I'm ignoring any possibility of lowering the difficulty, which obviously doesn't address GG's question about TF challenge levels).
The tech already (at least partially) exists, and was even applicable to TFs/SFs for a short period. Being able to crank a TF/SF up to various "insane" levels (perhaps even higher than the system currently in use for regular content) might be able to compensate somehow for the additional power given by whatever will boost level 50s (such as "universal enhancement slots" or whatever form the mechanic takes).
as in lowering tf to -1 and soloing it or raising to +4 and farming for purples -

Quote:i like columbo batman and star trek =)My TV habits have changed radically in the last decade. I hardly ever watch network TV anymore, and the 30-minute "show" is practically a dodo for me now. I find, if I am careful I can avoid ever seeing a commercial for weeks at a time. The only thing that breaks this rule is the occasional live sporting event.
So I'm gonna offer my own list, but its an "all-time" list, not a 2009 list:
10. Charlie Rose - with the right topic and the right guests, it might just be the best show on television.
9. Monday Night Football - Not so much now, but when I was single it was nice to take Monday night "off" from the singles scene, and just have a brew with a few buddies and watch a football game. It wasn't so much the game, it was the Monday night - something to do on what is usually a dreary night.
8. Columbo - This has no business being on anyone's "top 10" list, but I am a sucker for Falk's character and I love the general theme of a slobby, working-class guy outwitting the arrogant "high-class" guy. A much better detective show than any CSI-thing, mostly because it was campier and funnier.
7. The Daily Show - I hate the show's political bias, but I love the show's send-up of mass-media and cable networks. John Oliver's skits almost never fail to make me laugh.
6. Adam West's Batman - No leather nipples and foam core biceps - just pure West.
5. Simpsons - Sure it jumped the shark after the fifth season, but during its pinnacle this was delicious satire.
4. Star Trek - Forget the stoic, dry, hum-drum iterations of the 80's. Get me a Star Trek episode with Captain Kirk and Abraham Lincoln duking it out with Klingons!
3. Arrested Development - Just one episode (perhaps the one where "hot cops" try to teach Micahel Cera a lesson) has more laughs in that 30 minutes than all of the seasons of MASH, Cheers and Facts of Life put together.
2. HBO - Rome, John Adams, From the Earth to the Moon, Bill Maher, any comedy special with Chris Rock - there's too many great shows not to list this entire network all on its own. Easily my most watched network of all of them on my dial.
1. Gilligan's Island - A sublime statement on the nature of sin, rich with Freudian subtext and coupled with a superb allegory to Dante's purgatory. Easily, and without any chance of argument, the most subtle, brilliant and intellectually challenging television show ever created. Plus Mary-Ann had bewbs.
*Quick shout out to the HDNet Movie network, that shows great movies all the time, in HD, commercial free. Also honorable mentions to Sesame Street and "Schoolhouse Rock". I also like Powerpuff Girls. Yes. Powerpuff Girls. My favorite is Buttercup.
WORST OF ALL TIME
10 Facts of Life - Never funny. Ever.
9 Diff'rent Strokes - See "Facts of Life"
8 MASH - There's camp, and then there's schmaltz. Camp=good. Schmaltz=suxxor.
7 FOX News / MSNBC - These two cable networks suck. I hate them. So I put them on my list. Keith Olbermann and Sean Hannity in particular can suck it.
6 The Antique Road Show - Proof that even PBS can peddle crap.
5 Every reality show ever invented
4 Every game show ever invented.
3 Lost - Endless threads that are never resolved or explained, doesn't make the writing "cerebral" it makes the writing suxx.
2 Veggie Tales - Morale preaching from asparagus? No thanks.
1 Jack Van Impe - I am an old man. I have seen this shyster peddle the apocalyspe for three decades. The general theme is: God is about to smite you, so buy my latest book and be saved. In the late 70's it was fluoride in the water and text books that dared to mention Darwin that proved we were all going to die soon. In the early 80's it was barcodes that meant "666". Then it was credit cards and the Visa company. Then it was the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the invention of the Euro. Then it was particle colliders and computer modems. Gorbachev was the devil. Then it was Francois Mitterand. Then, Bill Gates was the devil. Now its Barack Obama. I watch this guy to laugh at him, but then every once in a while my wife reminds me this crook weasels people out of their money for fear that God will smite them any day now and send them all to a fiery hell. I also am obsessed his hair cut, which by the way is totally LOL.
When I want to play an evil villain in RP, and really think about what "evil" truly is, I think of Jack Van Impe.
i never considered monday night football a show....i would have gone with COACH..i dont know why but i like that show
MASH on worst...i just cant agree with that one...id replace with happy days...for cheesey
Jack van impe im gonna have to look up..... -
Quote:oh.... so that doesnt work? hmmm well then nevermind i was trying to be niceYou do realize that your 63 month account will be invited first due to being a 5+ year vet, right? Loyalty program invites aren't for another wave or two of beta invites beyond that.
ya wouldnt want to be the cs fielding that one... -
Quote:i like BBT too just that darn restrictiveness of 10.... i also wish i had room for george lopez show * talk show on tbs) its really funny....I would have put Big Bang Theory in the Top 10. I did not care for it when it first came out but has definitely improved.
Quote:The Jay Leno show certainly deserves its spot. The first episode got beat in the ratings up here by Ice Pilots NWT on History Television by about 100,000 viewers. That's bad. Really bad. -
Quote:my oldest male toon.. the one villan with a lot of badgesIs the character male or female? I had a female character who wasn't getting credit listed for the "Ironman" badge because she had the "Ironwoman" badge. However, when I completed all the other requirements, it still awarded the accolade. It just didn't count for the progression bar.
Quote:I think it might have something to do with the "new" requirements for that accolade as well.
When the requirements were changed, the badge progress counter removed Unbreakable, Raider and Lanista as requirements, but didn't correctly add Iron(wo)man or Hammer Down if you had already earned them before the change.
The accolade itself is earned as expected, but the progress bar does not always reflect accurately.
On a side note, the Architect X and XXV badges still seem to be broken, in that new characters are not earning any progress toward those badges for the Global badges they earn upon creation... and XXV is still not earnable by any character that didn't already have it before the changes, because there are only 24 other earnable badges on each side for that category.. though I assume GR might change that when a Hero could earn Villainous and a Villain could earn Heroic after switching sides. -
yep =) learning nooks and crannies...

Quote:The office i didnt like till i rented the first season..just as with madmen it took 10 episodes to understand itThe Office would actually be on my Worst list. Just... don't find it funny.
And I'm surprised that Criminal Minds isn't on your top 10. I absolutely love that show. 24, too.
But then again, I'm a La Femme Nikita fan. Always liked edgy spy drama.
i like criminal minds ,but dont like 24 . but top 10 is very restricted... -
the dogs of war are sleepin....im so bored at work been reading up on task forces
-
Not sure if has been discussed already but
Born in battle read 5 out of 7 badges needed then i got a 6th badge and it read complete..
i checked my badges reason i can figure out is 10 ghost from po have been moved to defeat and is not in achieve anymore
just pointing it out in case someone else hasnt...if someone has then just ignore me -
Quote:plus the event will have changed to an AE mission ( less lag)I will wait until Feb then, lag is not an issue, i haven't experienced any lag, its the mapserves that kills teams.
always a chance at good prizes

It recieved honorable mention if i had gone to 20 it would be 11
i looked at house and fringe as top ten and house i think needed the spot
also in honorable mention *good tv shows but not ranked as high as say monk or house or community*
Fringe,Doll house, 2 1/2 men, The closer, PSYCH, Saving grace, Mad men,Burn notice, white collar crimes,COugar town and Lie to me
Dis honorable mention in bad tv shows (would have been 11)
SGU
just didnt have the room =(
Quote:Flash Forward is definitely in the right place.
Modern Family would be higher on my list of the best though.
Its great to see Al Bundy working in comedy again.
Acting
storylines
fun
and based on rating i put it where it is -
Quote:im with perfect on this one i dont even like beta and have it on two accountsDear NCSoft:
Please give my beta seat to someone else. The angst on this forum over not getting something earlier than a bunch of other people is making me too depressed to participate.
Storm
please leave me just one ( on the 63 month vetran reward account) and use other one ( 33 month vetran reward account ) for other people....
the angst is just too much -
