I also recommend Signature Story Arc 1 Part 7. It can be run solo (especially if you turn all the difficulty settings all the way down) and has lots of ships. Also part of it is inside of a ship, so you can see if that setting works for what you want.
If you don't have access to the SSA on live, you can "purchase" them for 0 points on the Beta server, downloadable through the NCsoft Launcher.
Should you still want to run the Admiral Sutter TF it is level range 20 - 40 (auto-exempt to 40 for those over) for 04 - 08 players. I have two accounts on Freedom that can run it for you. I think I can find a fourth to get it started by asking nicely. Then my alt can go AFK/log-out so you can take all the time you want exploring maps. -
Only two? *stares and stares at personal requirements for an MMO game*
If I could only pick two, the absolute requirements would be:
1) Unassisted flight. No mounts, no artificial time/cost limits, no pre-scripted paths. Keep flight just as Fly is in CoH.
2) Avatar design not dependant on equipment/powers. One of the reasons CoH was so powerful was because the avatar could crafted into an epic conceptualized from the start.
If I could pick three, the other would be:
3) Casual-friendly playstyle. Can log in for 15 minutes and still complete content in one session.
I have some more points for an MMO wishlist, but they are variations of those three. -
Whoa, nice! The quality and composition were interesting, plus some new tricks I haven't seen in any CoH videos before.
As always on an Angelus Animi video, I really like the storytelling and in-jokes which make me laugh. Thank you for the smiles!
And thank you for the link, Leandro!

Congratulations, toadliquor! And a huge THANK YOU for figuring it out! It literally was haunting my dreams.
Quote:THAT is how to go from IG + Stephanie Peebles to Ignoring? Even with all the focus on her hand it is a bit of a stretch. Okay, I forgive myself for not figuring that part out. "Sew", "All", and "Back" I ought to have gotten a bit closer on. Meaning I got half of it completely right and most of the rest of it really close. Not bad for deductive logic at 4 am.Originally Posted by ChristopherRobin
8. Ignoring (Igneous minus Neo minus US {leaves "IG"} plus Stephanie Peebles from Striga. Her plight is her wedding ring was stolen. I used photoshop to darken everything around except her hand to which I added a light patch of skin to show she currently has "No Ring" on. IG+NoRing= ignoring)
And while I submitted Orange Text I was questioning if it was the part I got wrong because to me it means VIP status names on these forums. Which got me stuck thinking that Ig + (variation of Peebles) somehow had to be another forum user name. Congratulations on getting it, Electric-Knight, and now you know to have more confidence in yourself!Quote:Originally Posted by Electric-Knight

Man, I had that and just never had confidence in the ig part. Then I over thought the orange text... "orange text means uncommon loot drop!".
Ah! Saw that too as I was double-guessing which part of my answer needed changing.Quote:Originally Posted by TimTheEnchanter

Thank you, ChristopherRobin, for all the brain teasers! They and the events have been a big treat (even as an occasional minor torture) these last few weeks! *Hug!*
PS Sorry, ChristopherRobin, but you are on my daily-watch radar now so I'll continue to lurk-watch everything you do on the forums and at deviantART. ;-> -
Congratulations, Great Rock!

Haha, same here. I always find you and your avatar (including your previous one) a delight to be around!
The previous GTNwA thread winning numbers were 3, 39, 43, 74, 77, 85, 87, and 94.Quote:Originally Posted by Electric-Knight
Although, whatchootalkin' about? Haha, I'm just picking numbers that come to my head and not thinking about them. Were those previous winners? I wouldn't pick them because of that. I do have some numbers that just always come to my head, so I've actually picked these same ones in previous contests, hehe! So, I don't recall them winning in any I may not have taken part of...
After rolling for numbers (that was fun!), going back to random numbers wasn't as amusing. So I made a secondary game for myself: Pick numbers I haven't picked in the previous GTNwA threads! As I dug through the previous threads to figure out what I had already picked, it turned out I too had chosen a lot of duplicates over the past couple weeks. For some unknown reason I liked eleven numbers enough to duplicate them, and 90 and 100 enough to triplicate them as guesses.
Which was a long-winded way to say my guesses are my own version of random elimination, now. And yes, doing so amuses me greatly.

GreatRock, reading and re-reading through your posts in this thread, I most strongly notice how you have an ability to process a lot of information, conceptualize complex possibilities, project outcomes, and clearly articulate those thoughts. Skills highly desirable by a talented chess player or CEO.
Maybe I recognize them in you because someone close to me possesses the same skills. I've watched them be highly successful in their efforts for over 30 years. That is 30 years (and counting) of getting to try out a lot of things through hard work. Getting to experiment whenever they needed something new in their life. From programming one of the first computer networks while still in college, to investing in start-up companies, to land development, and more.
From time to time a specific attempt would fail. Usually quietly. Sometime spectacularly. The times my heart broke for them was when partners failed to deliver on promises or, even worse, would lie and steal because their portion of the profits would not satisfy greed.
Like you, this entrepreneur started at a place that was less than nothing. Trapped, as you said, by a reality full of hate-worthy people. In spite of setbacks from family circumstances, environment, and deceitful associates, that person has thrived. They've been successful in just about every way a person truly wants.
They have built a good family of their own, one of mutual respect and genuine caring. I and a dozen others not of their blood consider them a parent, though not because of legal or religious status. They install a desire to be surrounded by trustworthy people even as they have been able to attract.
How did they do it, with so much against them to start and so much failure along the way? Well, like I said they were a lot like you, GreatRock: Talented and driven to becoming more then what they were. I think you can enjoy the same level of success as they. After all, at sixteen is when they started building the life they have enjoyed for so many years.
Really there is only one major difference I can see between you and them.
Quote:The successfully happy person you remind me of is close to how Flying_Carcass describes. Instead of ranking people, they focus on connecting to people. They look at the world as a place containing people worth knowing.Originally Posted by GreatRock
Why shouldn't I? It is a logical way of classifying people, and I know that there are quite a few exceptions. I classify, but only after scrutiny.Quote:Originally Posted by Flying_Carcass
Also, don't think of people as superior/inferior. Everyone has their flaws and virtues, their own triumphs and challenges, so don't be quick to judge others (or yourself!). Just try to do right by others and remember that most folks aren't so bad when you give 'em a chance.
Determining superiority doesn't enter into their equation. True, superiority is a logical way to relate, but the world is an emotional place. So they focus on the most important emotion of all: Feeling valued.
For some people it is easy to value them, because they have a lot of similarities to recognize and praise. Some are harder because they are so different or the valuable parts are "diamond in the rough" unpolished and hidden away. But in each and every person common ground is found, appreciated, and valued.
Yes, they've had people take advantage of their kindness (see aforementioned liars and thieves). That hasn't stopped them from believing there are still other people out there who are worth knowing and valuing.
And as they value others, that encourages all to value them as well. It's one of those self-perpetuating goodnesses in life. They and all they've influenced, myself included, are a living proof that cooperation and respect and honesty lead to thriving happiness.
In the end I think their lifeviews can be summed up as: Respect all, work hard, do what you love.
My hope in sharing this is that you, GreatRock, or someone else who reads it will draw hope that there is real good in the world. While I did not name names for privacy reason, I solemnly promise that the noble person described does, in fact, exist. They are not a fantasy or an exaggeration. While they are not perfect (no one in this world is) they are one of the best people I know. They are real, and have been an influence for good in the lives of all who know them or know of them, as long as that person also wanted good in their life.
Wherever your life journey's takes you it is my wish that you may discover wonders to explore, learn ways to grow, create expressions of yourself, and know someone trustworthy to celebrate all of it together. -

In contrast I just tried with Firefox running Adblock Plus and got the same error from Norton as Acroyear2. I wonder why Norton and Avast are blocking it but AVG is not?
Update: Strange. When I went to http://www.badge-hunter.com/ first, then use the dropdown menu to Vidiotmaps (which goes to the same thing as my bookmark http://www.badge-hunter.com/index.php?/page/maps.php which was blocked a few minutes ago) I can browse fine. -

Team Magpie/ Myrdinn finished the Manticore TF quick at 0:46:30. I think that 0 Defeats is accurate as I don't remember anyone faceplanting, though there were a few close calls.
