GrinningSpade

My name is from my villain MM. A fellow so outspoken and fun to play that he made me RP a lot. I named him Grinning Spade because he wore he mask with a huge grin on it and I used the spade as the symbol on his suit. Nothing fancy about that name actually but it suited me as a nice name for a gentleman villain who still believes in secret identities, dramatic gestures, a bit of chivalry and a fondness for tying damsels to railroad tracks while he twitches his mustache and cackles hysterically.

When I decided to join the forums, I chose him as my handle because he did like to talk so much and I liked being in character with him. The perfect persona for a superhero game.

Trivia. He is not my Global name. That one is Gunbunny but she is less likely to argue with words And when I joined she was basically mothballed.

More trivia: My city of cute avatar for this toon based on his costume by the excellent Psygon had to be removed because it (together with the name) had to much similarities with a racial slur from the NA past. A thing that caused some complaints when the EU forum merged with the NA forum.

Nice idea, but I could not check it out because alt tabbing plays havoc on my poor computer. So for me it would ruin the arc.

When I played a villain and ran through their arcs the first few times. I read it all, everything. A thing I hardly bother with Hero side. The quality of the arcs is so much better then that of the blue side.

It also inspires me to pay more attention to my characters roleplay wise (Mind you, I am not an online roleplayer yet he makes me now and then). For me, the true measure of how much I like Villains is the fact that my handle here is Grinning Spade. I chose him because he was outspoken, gallant and yes wickedly evil as well, in a gentlemanly sort of way. He had something to say.

I love the red side. If they chose to drop one of the sides, let it be blue.

Normally I don't care much about double xp. But with i16, an xp boost would be nice to have to test out these new powerset combination's. For once I would like to have a double xp boost as well and am a bit envious.

Imp and fairy ears. Can't help it, they are so cute.

Plus the usual suspects. Trenchcoats, open jacket, wide neckchain, stilettos, fairy wings, top hats and other things mentioned above.

Can't help but agree to the OP.

Sure, I could start a new account and move to the NA side. But losing all the toons I love, losing all the effort I put into them, losing 48 months of vet rewards I am attached to, not to mention all those packs I bought, I have all but the last two.

Now I could go and abandon it all to play on the NA servers, having to pay again for the privilege of playing this game To be honest I rather start playing CO then star again from scratch.

I would love to get access to those 11 extra servers though.

Late game is when you can level your own VEAT or Kheldian and realize there is no reason to race to the finish line. It is also about having reached that finish line and realizing that for some strange reason you want to collect all of those badges or gain the most powerful enhancements you can get your hands on.

Conclusion, late game start at level 50.

More powersets to play with is always nice.
The ability to color your powers is nice as well I guess.
Supersidekick and other QOL things are always welcome.
Hard needed nerfs to mistakes from the past a neccesity and lets hope they did it well this time.

But yes, I am missing much needed new content.

So miss please explain to me. You said that this villain kidnapped you form a high security facility. Then you just followed him around towards the entrance? Even when the police squad distracted him with that ambush? Do you think I am stupid or something? Tell us how long you are working for this... Grinning Spade person?

Shame I missed the 2nd half of those competition. I even had practiced running those railroad tracks. I am sure I would have won that one. I was also sure to win that cossie contest and finding you with the hide and seek. hmmm, I sense a pattern here.

Thank you and your buddies from Echo for organizing these games.

Oh well, all speculations aside. I find it amusing that such a paper is written about something like Zombie Apocalypse. As good a subject as any other plague thing.

Sounds fair enough to me. I am curious if you can jump a train unpowered though. Anyone tried and succeed that?
