    Move to Freedom. I'm online a lot and I post my events in the calendar. I'm on the hero and villain side. I'll get you to 50. I'm got stuff going on during christmas/new years weekend.

    Also, starting it next week so that we can (hopefully) get through Positron and Synapse before the holiday and have the "shorter" ones to run over the holiday break.

    Also, just an FYI... this "event" WILL hit EVERY TF in the game except for the Shard TFs. We will schedule the shard for perhaps a weekend where we can split the longer ones into 2 parts.
    what time potentially until the holiday? M, T, W, TH in the early evening?
  4. one more question. Is the Ouro Ramiel meeting a solo or team exercise?

    It is but I didn't know it when you posted. You just said "run." I was reading about the Alpha and put the it together. Have a safe trip next week.

    Some of the EBs can be challenging based on your AT/Build.

    I travel over Christmas weekend, so that is pretty much out for me - not sure about New Years weekend.
    I have GR so I'm fine but which run did you do? Will any run do or do you have to do the Ouro run?
  8. The CoH servers have been woefully slow the past few days. You do these regular, right? How about putting these in the calendar? Think about the christmas/new years weekend. I'm online from the 12/23rd till 1/2. I even created an EU account last week so I could play in the morning :-) I want to do some of these with you again. Also, how hard is it to enable the alpha slot? I haven't logged in to my NA account since I19
  9. When are you going to do this again? MTW of this week in the evening? Post here if you do please
  10. did I read that someone quit after the second mission? LoL. People are so inconsiderate.

  11. Next time you do this. Don't forget me! I'm mad. Are you going to do any runs during this week? MTW(Evening) Masters Barracuda, Tin and Apex?

    CoH/CoV Novel?

    3515: Positron Gets Some

    Two questions:

    1. How long is this arc?
    2. How did you get such low MA numbers?

    It's a bit of self-promotion here, but if you hit my signature, I wrote a full length COH FanFic novel (told from Positron's PoV) that a lot of readers have really enjoyed, which then in turn started a sequel. I'd also recommend a quick foray into the Roleplaying section of the forums, and look up the writing by Mr_Grey, BlueBattler, and a couple of others who've done excellent fiction.

    Cheers!

    Self-Promotion is ok. I've seen your stuff. You do good work. Story means everything to me though. I'm ALWAYS looking for high quality material about CoH. This is probably the main reason why I stay here and put up with this. This is the only MMO where you can build a story behind the characters you build. From time to time, I've found mini stories/comic books and individual sites about their individual characters and I find it delicious. I'll check out your stuff but I have to finish this book first. :-)

    Thanks about the comments about fanfiction.net. I'll look at that after I finish this book.

    CoH/CoV Novel?

    I'm in the middle of the second book, the Freedom Phalanx. So far this book isn't anywhere near the first. Positron seems to be the focus of this story. When I read this I feel like I'm reading about a poor "Ironman." Reading about his suit practically puts me to sleep every time. If I read about search alogrithms, manual/auto mode one more time I think I might scream. Synapse seems to be a womanizer/socialite/playboy to me. In my mind, I thought Synapse would be a smart guy but he comes off as just a yahoo. Manticore is a straight loner and his obsession with Proteon concerns me greatly. He barely talks to Positron but how he scores/connects with Sister Psyche is a great mystery to me I hope to understand. Honestly, Sister Psyche to me seems to be the most interesting character in this story. Reading about her and her tremendous mental powers but her inability/lack of willpower in her personal life has captivated me greatly.

    This book was/is hard for me to read until recently. I actually bought this book first but the first few chapters were so bad I almost gave up and put it down. I read the Web of Archanos quickly in about a week and have reacquired my determination to finish this book.

    I give Cryptic credits for story development. When Star Trek Online fired up earlier this year, they released a novel called STO: Needs of the Many and it was quite interesting. Too bad Cryptic just doesn't know how to make good games. CoH has evolved tremendously under NCSoft/Paragon but STO under Cryptic will probably fail in 2011. Cryptic seems to believe that leading with the C-Store is Star Trek. On another board, I read someone making the comment that STO was Champions Online with Star Trek Skins :-)

    CoH/CoV Novel?

    I finished the Web of Arachnos last month and it was great. Reading about Statesman as a criminal and Stefan Richter as his sidekick was hilarious. The Well of Furies and the women/Furies were interesting too. I hope to see them in the game soon.

    Monica Richter and how she got the Liberty Belt was somewhat interesting. I was unhappy with her being Stefan's sister and Cole's wife. My opinion changed about Recluse when I read he killed Cole's brother and his own father. The origins of the Darkwatcher were interesting, too.

    When I signed on this morning, the software did update again and this is what pushed me into the maintenance window. I'm fine now. I tried to logon during the maintenance window. I didn't realized NCSOFT had changed the window to thursday morning.

    What are you talking about? I updated the client weeks ago with I19 and it was applied this morning. This was my first login since I19. I do not mess with updater. I have enough problems as it is.

    I signed on at 6:30am when the servers were online. They went into maintenance at 7:00am during the software update. I tried to login after that.
  19. I tried signed on to this morning and now my client won't work. I'm having a create week with NCSOFT. My ticket reference is 101202-003091

    I noticed that the all US server statuses are unknown.

    Let's see what happens. I need to be able to buy a client and item packs. I won't over with just the client.
  21. Why do I put up with garbage like this? This vendor isn't set up to deal with the holidays. NCSOFT CoH must be like a 30 man shop or something. Some of their ideas are half-baked. A one day only sale? There are 30 days in November. Some vendors did the a online "weekend" sale. I had a ticket opened about the store since Tuesday and they didn't get to it until today. If you waited until yesterday SOL.

    Give people a chance to get/buy something. Their "risk" management system is preventing people from making purchases. I can't wait until April.
  22. I tried to buy the EU GR copy at full price just now because I can't get the deal through DLgamer because I'm in the US. Here's my latest message:

    FRAUD SUSPICION!!(I've never gotten this message before)
    I think I'm a criminal!! :-)

Not a great issue to have on the day of your sale.
    It's kind of funny. The one day you want to buy something you can't. You need to open a ticket here if you want to get the deal. help.ncsoft.com
    Their responsive today.

    Will the Paypal account also be banned from paying after paying for 3-4 accounts?
    I'm surprised to hear you say this about paypal. I can move money back in forth within hours in the same day. If worse comes to worse ask NCSOFT to up your spending limit per day.
  25. Open a ticket and have them reset your card. Can you use your paypal account. It's free and has a limit of $500 for new verified accounts.
