lol you were only off by one sugar.

*warm fuzzy feeling*

100 Rates, and 4 stars. Wow. That’s a milestone if I ever saw one. Only 4 stars so that means not everyone liked this idea. Sorry, I did my best in putting it together, and am still working on it. I do hope to improve upon it again, and add more depth to the zone.

I've had a few private PM's from... friends, and I am encouraged that we will see a Hero / Villain cooperative Non PvP Moon Zone sometime next year. Will it look like this? No, of course not, but if one of these ideas do make it to the final zone in some shape or form then I would say I haven’t wasted my time and efforts outlining a non existent zone. My main purpose for continuously updating the zone was to add more and more ideas that could be used for a future zone. For all of you who support the idea, and have rated the thread, Thank you. For those of you who don’t like it, please give me some feedback. I am open to different ideas.

GA

Thank you for the vote of confidence. I am still hopeful. I know any zone they make will not be like this, however if just a few of these ideas make it to the new zone, then it will all have been worth it.

Excellent work, Ace.

I just rechecked this. It looks like Brute taunt auras (invincibility, mud pots) are exempt from this restriction. The inherent taunt of those powers apparently is set to work on all NPCs, but the Tanker equivalents do not.

Well, I hope your "source" works both ways and gets that problem to a Dev.

[/ QUOTE ]

Indirectly, it did.

No comments on the gauntlet issue at the moment -- but I am reading the threads and taking notes.

Thanks for looking into this Castle.

Outstanding once again Mantid.

Renamed to Regen would make things simpler for the dev's. They wouldn't have to look for who to nerf.

(I'd do other more relevant things if I was stupidly rich. This one would just feel good ).

[/ QUOTE ]

Thanks for the reminder. I'm going to go buy a lotto ticket.

This is just wrong.

and needs fixing.

This idea is awesome, well throught out and sounds like it would be a blast.

[/ QUOTE ]

Thank you. It's a work in progress, so if you can think of anything that needs to be on the moon don't be shy.

If even one of these Ideas get's incorperated into a moon zone then it will all be worth while.

Faultline officials recently provided funding for reconstruction and work was underway in the first neighborhood, when major disaster struck. Due to strange seismic activity on the moon, tidal anomalies caused the Overbrook Dam to rupture flooding the zone. Additional crews have been called in to assess the Dam and shore up the rest of the zone, however, they are continually thwarted by the recent arrival of new villain groups to the area and one group, in particular, that no one expected: Arachnos. It appears Arachnos has been poking around supergroup base wreckage in Faultline for some time, searching for technology that will further Lord Recluse’s nefarious plans. Paragon Officials have called in small detachments of the Paragon Police Department and Freedom Corps, but are also asking heroes to come forward and protect the new city.

I love you too Cricket!

I remember when this post in the Justice Forums didn't have any replies and was fresh out of whatever left field it sprung from:

Just look at it now

ah yes the infamous 1 post wonder UniqueDragon. lol.

Okay...my turn!

I remember turning on the Targeting Drone and going "Hey, what's that sound?"

I remember running around as a Rikti during the invasion. Except I wasn't running around (can we say chain held?) I think we had ka-zillion hit points. We also spoke fUnNyee lIKe ThIs. You heroes couldn’t stop laughing at us.

I remember when I was checking on the Hamidon to see if it spawned correctly. We had to keep an eye for spawning errors at the time. Sadly, I forgot to hide. It couldn't kill me, so my screen was COVERED with de-buff icons....probably about 30 full rows of them. It wouldn't let me go. I had to log.

I remember a blaster who didn't realize I was talking to him in tells about a problem he reported. I followed him (while visible) down the streets of Steel Canyon trying to get his attention. Finally he pivoted and said "Why is this police bot following me?” (Sorry...I didn't mean to spook ya)

I so hate you right now.

her...

take a snapshot of all the different insperations, Cut them down to size, put them together with a gif maker program. I use Easy Gif animator myself.

Thanks Mithril_Paladin. It's still a work in progress.

I can only hope for some cool space suit options / temp powers.

Well I don't know about Lord Recluse, but I did have the 5th doing it.

You guys made my day.

Anyway. Thumbs up to this moon idea... hey back when they were asking us what zones we wanted I chose Water and Moon

[/ QUOTE ]
Those were my two choices also. although Cryptic is living up to their name and being very "Cryptic" about who won the vote I still have hopes that it was the moon zone. although I would not be too disapointed if it was underwater.

Underwater zone on the moon... hmm....

[ QUOTE ]
Wow, i can only wonder why this fellow here isnt already working for cryptic. At least, since the forums are covered by the EULA, they *can* use this idea if they want to

[/ QUOTE ]

I hope they do.

Hey Ace, you got me thinking. If this is an Igneous Creature would it not have an Igneous name?

[/ QUOTE ]

Good point sugar.

You made me think about it a bit.

We don’t know much about the language of the Igneous but we do know 3 words.

'Golapo' is the name of their species.
'Aga' means 'our'.
'logo' means 'home'.

Based on those 3 words I am going to make the following hypothesis.

Their language consists of 3 consonants and two vowels. Yes I know it’s a terrible hypothesis because it’s based on a small sample of words. However, the Igneous are very primitive, and primitive peoples tend to have small noncomplex languages. What we do know is that we have only seen them use the consonants 'G' and 'L' however a page from Sam Wincott’s Diary describes the word Golapo as being the name of their species which uses the letter 'P'. The only Vowels we have heard of them using are the letters 'A' and 'O'. That gives us 3 consonants, and two vowels, for their alphabet.

Now I can think of only three rules.
1) All their words end in a vowel.
2) No two consonants can be together.
3) No two vowels can be together.

Shortest word 3 letters, longest word 6 letters. I would say no word should be longer than 7 letters.

That does not give a lot of range to work with but it does give us a lot. 12 combinations of 3 letter words, 24 combinations of 4 letter words, 36 of 5 letter words. 48 of 6 letter words, and 60 of 7 letter words. All total you have 180 of words you could make. I think a 180 word vocabulary is larger than most people I work with.

To keep it simple we’ll use English sentence structure.

So given the basis of this what could we name this creature.

I’m going to add a few words to the language, by switching the letters a and o on the name of their species we change Golapo to Galopa meaning God. The rest are as follows. I purposely made hurt and kill close (just added a prefix) and kill and enemy close.

Golapo – Igneous / us
Aga – Our
Logo – Home
Galopa – God
Gopa – come
Apo – hurt
Palopa – enemy
Palapo – Kill


This way you can have the igneous along the edge of the lava say things like

Gopa Galopa Palapo aga palopa (Come god kill our enemy)

Palapo apo golapo (Enemy hurt us)

And many other combinations. With just those 8 words.

what do you guys think?

Freaking awesome. I thought that it was a real patch note until you started thanking people. Nice work

[/ QUOTE ]

You know I think this is one of the best compliments I have ever gotten concerning this. Thank you.

*sigh* if only it were a patch note.

hmm...

No real mention of new zones....

[/ QUOTE ]

They previously mentioned redoing Faultline. IMO, I think there are enough zones right now, but that's just me.

[/ QUOTE ]

I just want my moon zone.

hmm...

No real mention of new zones....

Have any ideas? I'd like to hear them.
