When you fight Synapse villain-side, he asks if you are using inspirations. I found this to be quite amusing. Didn't stop me from burning him to death, but still

Holycrap, it's Borts!

Also, I fixed mine. Apparently, my birthday was the 10th every month. I think that makes me... Err... 270 years old?

I don't remember volunteering, but that is all right. Probably. We'll see how Friday pans out

Speaking of those mysterious notes, the ParagonWiki article on the Imperious Task Force mentions that another of those notes is found there, but I've never been able to find it. Can anyone tell me where to find that note in that TF?

[/ QUOTE ]

It's in a crate in the last mission, in the final area where you fight Romulus. You have to go through space Nazis to get to it.
At least, that's where I've always seen it, but the location could be totally random for all I know.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nah, those aren't Space Nazis. That's the Council. What you're dealing with in the ITF are time Nazis.

I've run 3 Doc Q's, in the last 3 years.

The first 2 took 7.5 and by hour 5, I was ready to kill someone.

The last one I ran was just a couple of weeks ago and it took right at 5.

I'd like to get on one of these 2 - 3 hour teams. I'd be running it every 24 hours =P

It's not hard. Form a team that can separate into 2-4 functional groups (or have your whole team capable of taking a spawn down in less than 4 seconds and keep moving at a frenetic pace). Lay waste to surroundings. Repeat. And repeat some more. And do some more repeating. And finis--wait, sorry, need to repeat some more. Then finish.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's exactly what my team did. All meleers, so our strategy was always "run in and pound faces into the floor." Mobs went down so fast it wasn't even funny.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't believe you. Mobs going down at a rapid pace to non-precision face-punting is never not funny. Thus, there is only one possible reason you wouldn't find it funny - YOU'RE A WITCH! GET THE FIRE!

I think that Rularuu is the one writing these letters.
...
But my biggest guess is that it is Rularuu himself, even if it sounds farfetched.

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you realize how big that pen would have to be? Seriously, have you seen the size of Rularuu? He dwarfs Hamidon. In order for him to be writing these letters, he would need both a huge pen and a huge piece of paper. Then he'd have to find a way to shrink it down to fit into a crate. Ooh! Maybe these letters are written on Shrinky-Dinks! That would be AWESOME! I wonder if we'd be able to shrink them further...

...

What were we talking about?

So, I've got a fence in the backyard, and some of the posts have gone missing, mostly from the wood rotting away.

Should I just go ahead and replace those posts or just pony up for a whole new fence make of stronger stuff?

[/ QUOTE ]

I got yer missin' post right here.

*awesomeface*

Judads already won two, maybe three internets for this one. You're working your way toward an internet collection of your own, because that made me laugh

They've been trolling around our hangouts for weeks now!

Yeah, I'm going to opt out of this one.

Arc Name: Send in the Clowns
Arc ID: 15703
Morality: Hero
Creator: @Kadmon
Difficulty Level: Medium
-Group Orientated, but can be solo'd
-Medium to hard based on the sets of the players; Case in point, Kadmon (BS/Regen) can more or less slaughter one of the AVs without being touched. Sanguine Shrike (MA/SR) has markedly more trouble with him.
Arc Description: A group of nihilistic anarchistic arcane clowns have shown up in Paragon City, causing chaos and problems wherever they show up. A PPD Metahuman Affairs liaison has contacted you to help out. Contains several AVs.
Arc Length: 5 missions
Why you think it deserves to be played/discussed: I really can't say anything unbiased here, I was just getting tired of people not playing it. I think it's good, but clearly, since it's my arc, everything about it from me must be taken with a grain of salt.

Arc Name: In the Protection Racket
Arc ID: 30312
Morality: Villain
Creator: @Kadmon
Difficulty Level: Medium
-Solo Orientated, but there is an EB/AV at the end
-Medium, contingent on powersets. See the example in "Send in the Clowns."
Arc Description: The protection racket can be a dangerous business, especially in a world of super heroes, but there must be some profit to be made from it, otherwise why would there still be mobsters doing it? Contains one (1) AV, otherwise should be easily soloable.
Arc Length: 4 missions
Why you think it deserves to be played/discussed: See above.

Arc Name: Adventures in Bank Robbery
Arc ID: 166208
Morality: Villain
Creator: @Kadmon
Difficulty Level: Hard
-Group Orientated
-Hard
Arc Description: After that incident in 30312, Lou decides to move on from the protection racket to an old mob standby - Bank robbery! To that end, he has you destroy a rival's warehouse as a distraction. However, when one of the rival's retainers takes exception to this, hilarity ensues! Contains a LOT of AVs!
Arc Length: 5 missions
Why you think it deserves to be played/discussed: Grains of salt and all that rot.

Title: Adventures in Bank robbery
Arc ID: 166208
Creator’s Global Name: @Kadmon
Difficulty Level: Hard to Very Hard
Synopsis – Sequel to 30312 (In the Protection Racket). After the... issues you and Lou had with the protection racket, he decides to go with an old criminal mainstay - A bank robbery! To that end, you decide to blow something up as a distraction. This causes a whole new slew of problems though.
Number of EB/AVS – 2 AVs and 1 EB, but one of those AVs shows up several times.
Story Type – Light humor
Mission Count: 5
Estimated Time to Play: Haven't tried it all out yet, tested the missions separately.

Note – Sequel to 30312, so do that one first, then come back and skip this step. If you don't like recurring bosses, you might want to pass on this.

Arc Name: Stop the evil gang group
Arc ID: 39874
Why you think it deserves to be played/discussed: Super duber girl is my contact and informs me that "Not a mission to take lightly" and sends me on mah way. I zone into the mission (1 room map) and the navigational text has "All Consuming Hatred" as my mission objective.

So I'm wondering what in the world that is when suddenly a tiny-sized fire/kin controller comes zipping in and starts attacking. It's name is, of course, All Consuming Hatred (or the ACH as I call it).

After a quick beat down the mission completes and I get my briefing message of: WOW!!!!! you have returned.

Total Playtime: About a minute because ACH got off one heal.

[/ QUOTE ]
If I may.

Many of you might think, at first, that this one mission arc is a prime example of the laziness and ineptitude that can be found riddled throughout the Mission Architect in its present form. I'm going to ask you to stop that train of thought right there.

Bear with me.

Everyone understands that the purpose of the Mission Architect isn't just to allow us to collect a bunch of badges or grind experience through new content, it's a way for players to express their feelings, opinions, and creativity in a unique and contemporary way that other people can experience firsthand. Consider the synopsis of the arc that Talia has provided above: the player enters the map, easily finds a villain named All Consuming Hatred, and defeats it just as easily.

On the surface this appears to be nothing more than a simple and unelegant throw-away mission created by the author. A message, however, must be clear enough for the intended observer to understand and appreciate. The message that the author wishes to convey, obviously, is that hatred is easy to find, be it on a one room map, outside of that map, or even within ourselves if one only chooses to look for it, and with even a minimal amount of effort this hatred can be defeated.

I expect the Mission Architect to provide more of this deep, thoughtful content in the future, and anticipate further releases by this author.

Blue, you just blew my mind. Mind you, I find your ideas silly and their thought process to be flawed and terrible like your braincase, but that is an insightful observation, and for it I will opt to not eat your brain. Case.

I have two arcs published right now.

Send in the Clowns - Arc ID: 15703 (Heroic)
5 missions, AVs, helpers, Ambushes, and unnecessary clickies!

In the Protection Racket - Arc ID: 30312 (Villainous)
4 missions, 1 AV, 1 Kidnap, Ambushes, and a number of clickies in the first mission as you wreck a dude's store

Yeah, that doesn't fly in the States. Who wants to walk around with a pocket full of change?

[/ QUOTE ]

Not this guy, that's for certain. I have a coffee can full of assorted change sitting on top of my desk. Any time I come home with any amount of change? Straight on in and forgotten until I need money. Then it gets wrapped and deposited into my checking account

The day they switch to coins for the dollar is the day I start simply using my check card for everything.

If you had one less Kheldian, you could make a clock out of the icons

Thanks for the birthday things. I posted something in my birthday thread on Justice that is my gift to everyone on the forums

So here! Enjoy!

Congrats on some nice gift art, TA. Wassy does very good work, and I still love the piece she did for me some time back

Since the new semester has just begun, and I've already found classes that I can very likely get away with not paying attention to, that means you guys get to see new art from Kadmon

The first one, inspired by one of my costumes. I call it the Face of Wrath.

This one, however, is quite simply the greatest art ever to come from a human hand. No joke
