    *lumbers up from the basement*

    Do I even want to know how someone got bars on a hole in inter-dimensional space? I dunno what it was made of, but I spent all morning punching it before it finally gave way.

    Only took me five minutes, but I headbutted my way through. There's nothing tougher or thicker than my skull.

    All you had to do was ask the bars to move for you and they would have, they keep out the outsiders not the insiders.

    Silly men thinking brute force is the only way things will, work.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Men don't think brute force is the only way things work. However, we think it's the most fun way for them to work.

  3. I'll jump out of the cake... it'd be one heck of a surprise, albeit not the pleasant kind. Not sure that big green lizard aliens are what people want inside their cakes.

    However, happy birthday, Rad!

  5. Hecaton isn't a word, to my knowledge. De-Etherealizing would refer to making him not a ghost. I think an anode is an electrical thingamajigger.

    Based on what's been said Force Fields seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. Hero Stats can help me keep up on timers and that nice macro will make buffing as easy as clicking and pressing G twice.

    Now in terms of what I want t go with this I'm not sure what other power set I want. If I go with a defender I could play like a second rate blaster. Controllers look like a bit of fun, Mind Control and Illusion Control look like a bundle of fun to me. Of course I could also play the other side and unleash an army of Bots! One other thing that I'm thinking about trying is a Trick Arrow/Archery Defender, not quite the most original concept, but hey. Well, once I get a ton of toons running again I'll see where it goes. Thanks!

    TA/A is a fun combo, but is quite active. Every power you have is a clickie, so there's no buff and forget or even toggles.
  9. I enjoy Redside more. I've played it so much at this point I feel awkward Blueside, like I don't belong. I spend more time in blue zones via mayhems than actually playing heroes.

    Is Redside better? For me, yes. But on an absolute scale? Not really.

    Holy Enix @_@

    At the risk of being pedantic, which is something I do rather often, it wasn't Enix at the time of FFIX's initial release.

    I'm a pretty big girl (6'2") so the doctor was more than a little surprised at how much novocaine it took to numb my jaw... >.> By the time he was satisfied by my numbness I couldn't feel my left ear

    THEN he pulled the tooth. It was -badly- infected. It took him longer to clear the socket of infected tissue than it took him to get the tooth out.

    Wait until your oral surgeon screws up and has to do a gum transplant twice in a row, and has to do it the second time without painkillers due to having used the safe limit the first time.

    I'm selling the name "Greedy n00b lamer" for a ham sandwich. Honey ham preferred. Rye bread a must.

    I also have "Uninspired Meathead" and "Shallow Knob" on sale for a foot massage and a Little Debbie snack cake, respectively.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I wonder if Uninspired Meathead is available on my server. Finally, a suitable name for my as-yet unmade SS/WP FOTM Brute build!
  17. Don't you have to own the land for it to be ranching, while herding implies the animals are wandering over terra communis or terra nullius?

    Magic Origin

    [ QUOTE ]
    My first and favorite comics were Doctor Strange, and the Mighty Thor, in that order.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Good point. To me, this is the magic origin in a nutshell. The characters who don't make sense until you hit the late 20s or better still, mid-30s. Preferably Corruptors or Defenders. The perfect visual is the magician hovering, cape aflutter behind his baroque arcane costume, as he hurls blast after blast of whatever it is at his assailants, who never get close enough to lay a finger on him.

    I've had exactly two characters like this, sadly. Going to go plan out another right now.

    I paid for this game and feel like I am getting good value for my money. I also feel the Dev's have done a great job offering a lot of variety in the game. They spend a lot of time and sweat making sure the AT's are balanced and the maps are interesting and populated with challenging foes. I enjoy playing the game. Why should I invest my time doing tedious work that takes a long time, for which I will not be paid, only to create something that the Dev's probably already have done or was very similar? I don't object to this being offered, I just don't get the draw. To me it seems an awful lot like work. Or...... I am completely off-base, and missing the point (not an unusual event) and the point of architect is............

    For some of us, making things is a big creative outlet. For instance, I write. Stories, poems (manly poems), nonfiction, and so forth. To me, the MA is a new way to craft a story, and is therefore a pleasure to play with.

    To me, the MA isn't there to make missions for other people, but to build stories as I make them up. I publish almost none of what I make, and even when I do, I usually pull it back down after my friends have played it. Someday I might feel like making a mission for other people; until then, my solitary silly one-mission arc is all I've got up there.
