I've been doing both MoM and TPN successfully and even picked up a couple of badges on Virtue, but all of the explanation in the world isn't going to help our 'special cases' on Protector so I don't think these will be going into the rotation for a while.

    That being said, next week will be Underground again... We missed Avatar Assassin last time we tried it, so I would honestly be up for just aiming for that and not worrying too much about the rest of the badge qualifications, if most of the people who come along are okay with that.

    We also have yet to get Loves A Challenge and Avoids the Green Stuff from Keyes, so I'd like to set that one up next... With a comparable league from last time we did it, if possible.
    I'm not really sure what you're talking about. I've run successful PuG Mom runs, and last night we did a PuG TPN and picked up 4 of the 5 badges for MO in the first run. As a side note before that run i had never run a TPN.

    It may be time to look for a new scapegoat.
  2. Don't care for most apple products, but do love my iPhone. I'd be willing to help out. Do you have to have to be a developer to test it out though?
  3. If it means anything, I still haven't gotten my points for November and my billing was on the 3rd. So...maybe one day this month they'll give it to me, or their just holding out to give it to me in December.

    yeah but the German Shepherd is a vanity pet, that means it does nothing. At least in that other game the $25 was going toward something mildly useful (though the price was still to high even for it).

    I was under the impression that every month we would receive a reward token. Furthermore I was always taught that the 31 days constituting the period of time known as "October" was a "month." I am now being told that during the time period referred to as "October," which may or may not be a month, I will not, in fact, receive a reward token.

    Therefore, one of three things is possible:

    1) I received October's reward token in September and there is an official post, or link to an official post, buried somewhere in this thread that indicates that such is the case.

    2) I have been duped since childhood, and "October" is not, in fact, a month at all.

    3) October is a month, I did not receive the October reward token in September, and I will not receive a reward token in October.


    If #1 is the case, would you be so kind as to direct me to the post in question?

    If #2 is the case, I have a bone to pick with my all of my teachers, older relatives and all the people at the Calender Club kiosk at the mall.

    If #3 is the case, I maintain that have been cheated out of a "monthly reward token" by not receiving on in the month of October.


    And defend the Devs all you want, but they are the ones who brought this on themselves by dangling "limited time only" Reward Token items in front of us. If the Tier 9+ rewards were something you'd eventually earn anyway, I would not be the least bit bothered by not receiving a token in the month of October.
    I'm actually under the assumption that I've already received my points for October in September. When issue 21 was officially launched i received 1750 points (i'm at tier 9 vip so 550) but whats odd is the break down is 400 for July, 400 august, 400 September, and 550 for October. Personally my billing date was on October 3rd so, I'm actually unsure if when this patch goes through on the 12th if i will get anything or if it will be awarding me for November.

    Reading over what Zwil has said i'm kind of lost on the points, though the tokens makes sense (kind of).
  6. Because I hadn't seen it mentioned and when i logged in there wasn't a pop-up, the villain side contact is in Sharkhead. Name is Vladimir Zolner and he is located right next to the ferry on the dock. Also running it as a level 50 i'm exemped down to to 30.
  7. Thank you all for the B-Day wishes. It was a good day very relaxing.
  8. While i'm sure there will be sales and a bunch of them as well as a lot of single pieces, i'm also sure there will be plenty that will make up a set. A possible suggestion might be for VIP players to buy a bundle like a super booster for the 800 points. Don't get me wrong i'm in full agreement that i don't use all the pieces from boosters, but at the end of the day i still have them and maybe one day i'll find a use for them.
  9. "Buy the booster packs right now to save money, since things will be more expensive ala carte."

    Does anyone else see a problem with this? I'm not trying to start an argument but, it seems silly that my money will not go as far as it used to for the same items.
  10. I'm happy that it's over. Great job though!
  11. Yo dawg I heard you like criticism so we put some criticism in your criticism thread and you got pissy.
  12. The problem with IXP is the shared multiplier. As a friend pointed out last night till now the game has only had teams of 8 people to share XP. So now with teams as big as 24 we believe the formula may be a little messed up when trying to give 24 people the XP.
  13. I still find the situation odd because if you let your become a premium and you paid for GR your not supposed to lose content that is in the game. From what i understand i will not lose all the features that came with issue 19 or 20 aside from the trial, though i've still paid for GR, why is that i have to lose this content too? I've paid for the ability to use it.

    Pretty much i get all the auras from issue 19 and all the zone events from it as well but now because i'm not paying a monthly sub i no longer have access to the Tin Mage and Apex TFs, even though i have GR.

    At this point its all speculation, they didn't give us a ton of info on how its works. Like they said that'll be in the coming weeks. While i hope that you are correct, no one but the devs can say how it'll work.
  15. I got mixed feelings about some of the news. From the sounds of it, if you lapse and go f2p and own GR you will lose content you paid for (incarnate trials) as well as some character slots, since from the sounds of it you will not get to keep all the slots you got for the retail game. I'm also a bit worried about the P-Store in the sense that it reminds me of that "other" store where you buy powers and other pieces that aren't always full sets. It sounds like they are going to do away with the super booster idea. But nothing is set in stone and from the sounds of it there's still time to make changes and what not so i remain optimistic.
  16. T sorry this is late but, Happy Birthday!
