    Haha, wow. I'm actually kind of disappointed, though--that's one of the few TFs I don't mind running because it's so fun. The others, though...

    I'm assuming there was no obvious announcement of what the WTF is?
    Is this thing supposed to be a mystery every week perhaps...
    No idea, and I'm not convinced that someone could just run a bunch of TFs and "discover" it. If I didn't have a full-time job, work part-time, and have a family of five, I might have to actually worry.
  3. Okay folks, place your bets when (if) the next monthly producer's letter will drop.
  4. I've long been set on the WTF.

    As for which one, money is on a cooperative or analogous TF.

    So, either Reichsmann, STF/LRTF, LGTF, Apex, TM, ITF, etc.

    Given how new the content is, I'm almost expecting (but will certainly be disappointed if it is) Apex or TM.

    Edit: here's what the snow looks like now. We'll see how much it's changed by Thursday. That's a regular table, so that's about 3 feet tall.
    NH represent!
  6. Now we have to wait and see what the Weekly Strike Target is...

    I know. I been here all along, though I did give it a run after getting a lengthy free trial for a birthday gift once.

    No, the context of that earlier statement was that, even though City pre-dated WoW, it was going to developmentally trend towards WoW because that's what everyone held as the ideal for MMOs.

    To be sure, there are "staples" of MMOs, but City has always done a good job (IMO) of turning the trope on its head and doing it in its own unique way. I have a...pessimistic view of the new raids, but we shall see.
  8. I got my first solo shard drop the other night!

    Well, it's entirely on Test, and they just announced that they were pushing a Test build to Live. So...

    I, and a lot of other people, didn't get that.

    Still, so long as you use the updater to load the client, everything should patch up fine.

  13. Hope you're still around in twenty or thirty years when I can go to one of these.

    It's Providence, Rhode Island, even though the square mileage of Paragon City probably exceeds the square mileage of the actual state of Rhode Island.

    I appreciate that people want to debate this, but it's canon. I'm sure we could get a good update to the Canon Fodder thread from Manticore if we got a good list of questions drummed up, though.

    Issue 19.5

    I had good inf. running on the 8th, but that's the funny thing about being wrong and it hitting tomorrow...I still win.

    Unbelievable. Yep, it hits tomorrow. Wow.
  17. It's an alternate universe Providence, Rhode Island. In this dimension/universe, Providence was able to successfully economically transition from the whaling industry into other and more profitable venues, becoming (effectively) the New York City of Primal Earth.

    Then by that logic we're guaranteed a February 8th publish date:

    Not winter is Road Construction season.

    Erie, PA here, Great Lakes snowbelt. Our average snowfall is just under eight feet. Which isn't much, all things considered. But holy cow, I am tired of double digit negative windchill. My dog won't go outside either, Ironik.

    Unlikely, but not impossible. My money is on the eighth, followed by the fifteenth. I'll lay odds on the eighth, tomorrow, then the fifteenth.

    Eesh. Did you get any windchill?
