Thanks for including my "Statesman and Recluse" in this issue of The Scoop. I saw that "Jesse" is credited for the work. I don't know who Jesse is, but at least that's a generic name. My toon name of Echonis or my real name of Shawn would be fine.

Anyway, I appreciate the work guys. Always a good read.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ha! That's a copy/paste error from layout. Jesse had a picture in last week's Scoop and when the code was copied over, the URLs got changed, but not the name.

Awesome work, that image is.

Why do I feel im getting slapped in the face again for buying something that becomes free later on......

[/ QUOTE ]

Have you ever actually been slapped in the face?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. I was the villain in a skit and the woman my character had kidnapped was supposed to slap me after I made some evil remark. She forgot to act for a split second and actually slapped me right across the face.

This announcement had nowhere near the same effect.

Now make it so that people who signed up for Red or Blue Forums can post on either!

That's most likely just an issue of cookies on your local machine. If you can't actually log in to one of the skins, it's a bug, and you should probably PM Ex Libris or Lighthouse to get it fixed.

*sigh*

Looking forward to a totally awesome weekend! First thing I'm doing is getting my level 48 dom to 50. After that I'll either work on getting my level 41 tank/brute pair towards 50, play one of my new lowbies, or make an Arachnos Soldier and zoom to Crab mode. And of course, I'll be laughing at the people trying to get on Freedom all weekend. That's just a bonus.

* When Zones within the cities are under attack, a world-wide alert will be issued by Vanguard. This alert will show up in your Chat window on the System channel, warning you in which zone attack is imminent.


[/ QUOTE ]

Did this not get moved to the new hero/villain event channels with i12? Now that we have such channels that's precisely the kind of thing that should be in there.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes, Vanguard messages are now in the Hero/Villain Zone Event Message channels.

Love the new hover animation.

Do not love that half my Mental Manipulation icons turned pink.

*reserves the name Sporktacus*

I'll be honest and admit that I still don't understand the rationale of having a reactivation weekend that goes from Thursday to Sunday when the long weekend goes from Friday to Monday...

My wife does transcription (medical I think) and she says its about double the time of the talking to transcribe with fairly decent typing speed. So the 1.20hr would take approx 3hrs I'm guessing
Not quite as daunting as 9hrs
GOD bless,
Shem

Good point - my knowledge was from anthropology classes where we had to deal with accents and everything else. Either way though, it's going to be a good chunk of a day.

Can anyone post a transcript of this podcast?

Deaf player here....

[/ QUOTE ]

You got it! I'll get to work on it right now. No clue how long it will take, but rest assured it will be available as soon as possible. Thanks for the suggestion, and the interest!

[/ QUOTE ]

Oof, my best wishes are with you. From my college classes, I remember it takes about 8 hours to transcribe an hour of speech, which means you have a 9+ hour job ahead of you.

Hooray mission creation!

It's cool, the doctor wrote a note and all.

[/ QUOTE ]

Where I live, you have to pay for a doctor's note. I guess it cost the City Scoop staff an arm, an arm, an arm, an arm.....

[/ QUOTE ]

It's ok, we're 'armless!

I love the villain additions! Can't wait to make /storm corrs and MMs, and elec/ corrs! Got plans for a pickaxe brute too! Eh on the new hero sets. I might make an /ice def, or a fire scrapper, but most of my new alts will be villains.

2.) In the question about my car, the "Zapp Maniac tea" thing is NOT me, that was a random person who was standing by us trying to do the teabag emote

[/ QUOTE ]

I thought that looked weird when I was editing it, but I don't know anything about cars...

Mmmm, corporate-speak... Tasty...



But seriously, bring on the good stuff!

We've been monitoring the performance of all servers throughout the day and early evening, and based upon recent data from Freedom, we're going to throttle down the maximum number of players that will be able to access the Freedom and Virtue servers for the remainder of the weekend.

Players will not get kicked off the server while we make this adjustment. However, if you log off, you may not be able to log back into the server (i.e. it will appear grayed out on the Server Selection screen).

[/ QUOTE ]

Just out of curiosity, can you tell us what that maximum number is?

[ QUOTE ]
this has probably been asked, but do the recipe drops increase too?

[/ QUOTE ]

Nope.

Rule of thumb: If it drops numerically (XP, inf, prestige), it is doubled. If it drops on a percentage (inspirations, enhancements, recipes, salvage), it is not doubled.

They devs don't have CoV.

[/ QUOTE ]

Well, that explains it. The Devs hate CoV because CoV is playing hard to get.

Your question presumes the Devs hate CoV. I do not agree with your presumption and therefore consider your question invalid. Have a nice day!

Mods, please move this to Screenshots and Art.

Ultimus, please post screenshots in the right forum.

That's my favorite Blue Man Group song.
