  1. That scoring system is racist towards people who don't get first place.
  2. That's why I want to see the points break down. Curious if my inability to click on the right teleport beacon cost me 2nd or 1st place. :0

    I'm assuming Vlad was awarding 3 pts for first to the location, 2 pts to 2nd, 1 pt to 3rd, etc...
  3. Vlad, while I'm thinking about it, can we get a full point break down of the participants?

  4. They would give a hint/riddle and then it would be a race to the location. IIRC, all the locations were exploration badges/zone sector markers/exploration badges.

    For example, "This is the biggest jerk." So every rushed to Voodoo. Turns out, he meant for us to race to Faathim.

  5. Would have gotten first place on two more of the hunts if it wasn't for zoning incorrectly.

  8. Hmmm. That's a good point. I would mind doing an elec/elec dominator.
  9. Old.

  10. Flux; not a bad idea. Not like we need that much storage pre-level 20. Still a slight concern about if we have half the sg above 20 and the other half before.

    Garielle; Try to encourage people to stick to the average/target level. So if you're behind and want to catch up, go for it. Mainly want to avoid having the entire sg log off at level 30 on Wednesday and a person levels up to 45 before next week. Makes it harder to synch up missions/skill levels. Also from past experience, the people who "cheat" like mad between sessions always drop out of the group anyways due to boredom.

  11. Ok, we got some issues w/ GR:
    You can't apparently join a blue side supergroup until level 20.
    People sub level 20 who are still in Pretoria are, well, stuck there. This will cause problems for people who lag behind.

    I'm thinking we might want to reconsider starting in Petoria.

    Well I bumped inside the magic man
    And he laid some tricks on me
    He said, "You do need help my friend"
    I whispered, "Obviously"
    He laid a spread of Jacks and Queens
    And he bade me take my pick
    But every face it had your face
    I cried out, "I am sick"

    Sick of hauling your love around
    Want to run my train alone
    But the engine tracks straight through your heart
    And weighs me like a stone

    Oh, it's a hard load to love you
    It takes up all my time, having you
    So familiar
    Like last life's
    Nursery rhyme

    So I gave away the pictures
    And your golden ring
    And the phone calls you sent me
    And the silver birds that sing
    Then the man he told me something
    That really brought me down
    Your things were thrown away, it's true
    But you were still in town

    Sick of hauling your love around
    Wanna run my train alone
    But the engine tracks straight through your heart
    And weighs me like a stone

    Oh, it's a hard load to love you
    It takes up all my time, having you
    So familiar
    Like last life's
    Nursery rhyme

    The magician let a message
    It flashes when I hide
    Accept the chains of loving
    Accept or else remove yourself from her side
    And do without her love
    And I lay back with a steel chain
    I keep it by my side
    I could mail a letter to you but I still
    Have my pride

    Sick of hauling your love around
    Wanna run my train alone
    But the engine tracks straight through your heart
    And weighs me like a stone

    Three times I've sent you back from me
    Three times my bones gone dry
    And three times I've seen the shooting shark
    Lighting up the sky

    Oh, it's a hard load to love you, babe
    It takes my breath away
    The fourth time round
    Is the last time round
    There's nothing else to say

  14. Screenshot of Lanna trying to get into the missions during last nights ITF:
  15. That's kinda my big issue as well; I like all my characters, tend to choose them randomly for TF's. Having more characters open to doing ALL the TF/SF's is a major bonus for me.

    I'll admit, that's one thing that can annoy me about Steam; it doesn't track your time for non-steam games.

  18. Best just to get TP friend and put two ranges on it. Three ranges will give you around 3.4 miles, iirc.

    Now it is a pure embarressment.

    Expect another complaint next month when I eventually get enough willpower to put myself through the Rikti version.
    Well, there's at least one fun thing about.

    It involves team teleport vet power and the gap between the reactor and the grates around it.

    I call it a "trust test."

    Someone's working overtime after that 12 hour downtime, trying to roll back some bad code....
    Don't forget; the markets were down yesterday as well. No redname posts on all these issues, nothing on the webpage.

    Seems like they're going to nail us harder every evening this weekend. What's for Sunday? Computer crashes that corrupt our FATs?

    Bah. Forget xfire.

    You have a steam account?
