Again, I'd say "wut?" but again get hounded and lambasted for lying

Those aren't my peers though. In any sense of the word. So it'll never happen in the first place. And I believe a jury is usually reserved for civil cases or felony charges? I can't really say for sure because I most certainly have found good practices to get out of jury duty.


You really should read them all. Back in the day when the forums were actually fun, I enjoyed the feedback for them I got in private. But I can neither confirm nor deny this supposed math. That's beyond my scope of what level I'd attempt to stoop to and/or pretend to out-nerd. All I can say is that there are far more people who've spent more time just reading the forums than you submit without actually interacting. Who's closeted now? Who's ashamed now????? Those are the meek you should be trumpeting to the call of defense.

I'm far more open about my proclivities than you can imagine; I just don't label them.

Thing is, this distraction is based off a misnomer, or at best a misunderstanding; I said nothing about this "nerd" fest you are gloming on to. I was, in fact, pointing out Mental's obsession (which very well may be made up but one of which I enjoy to pretend exists) with a particular show and its fans' moniker. I'm sorry if I struck a chord too close to home


But at least this has been more interesting than the original intent of the thread before Mental decided to fan the flames of misdirection?

So you're putting forth the mere notion that a) posting on a forum (game, etc...the simple reality of just being online in general) is somehow a felony and b) being a "nerd" is a prosecutional offense?

And a jury of my peers? The same people who would include others with *far* more posts in *less* time? Or people like Mental?

I'll take my chances and stand by my convictions. But I thank you for taking the time to read every post over the years. You are a better person for it.

Take everything you actually know about me, stuff it into a thimble and stick it in your pocket.

I look down my nose at you and your gleek kind.

wut?

That's not called donations. I think that's called "tips".

As long as I'm still here, it's a win for everyone

You're welcome!

Alright. The first week of doing BAFs I was getting weird stuff (one character got 4 Emps), and subsequent runs were either focused on iXP or parts and wasn't paying attention.

I dislike the conversion idea as well and would prefer *just* an Astral cost; and no, not 15 Emps worth of Astrals.

I would really prefer no outside requirement to unlocking a branch I already have, but I guess that's off the table.

Not for the 15 Emp cost IMO, especially if they are going to continue with the Emps not apply for Baf/lambda.

Been awhile, but do you currently get an extra Emp for doing a complete Master run on BAF? And I would assume if that's the case, also on Keyes/UGT? I do not know if that extra Emp was affected by a cool down or not. Also don't know if it was a one-time reward on a character for the master badge or if it was something repeatable.

Yes, 3 dates. Server transfers are the 1st of the Month (or when you first log in after that date).

Points date is all over the place and maybe someday will come closer to some date between your vet date and your subscription date.

Token date is, apparently, sometime "around" the 28th of every month? At least, for some people.

Yep, but I don't know if it will follow the current structure for crafting. I'm sure it will, which is disappointing. Thus leading to the "per character" thing a big turn off for me. If it kept the same structure but only cost X Emps to unlock for the account, then it'd be far more appealing to me.

I was wishful nudgenudge thinking outloud. Maybe "soon" they'll rethink their approach to keeping status quo on things that are generally overblown / cumbersome / not necessary out of the gate.


..... ha ha.

I read that part about going to the NPCs to buy them.....I don't think I care for that. BUT....and I haven't checked, what are the costs to make the parts? Additional components? If it were a straight 15 Emp cost to unlock AND make (pick and choose), I'm sold..... per character. If not, for what I read about them, I'm really not interested in most regardless. But that Vorpal one sounds pretty cool. The more iTrials they implement, the less time I have to play other characters, and the less interest I have in Incarnifying characters I don't play. Adding giant costs to stuff I'm not interested in completely puts me off of bothering with them.

Since the two new iTrials only give one type of iXP, I would think they'd have to be on par with BAF/Lambda in terms of ease/teammates/time spent. With Keyes being juiced to be more appealing (in theory), and UGT not being hard at all and both giving great iXP for *both* types at once, they do seem to be the better bet. I'm not talking about badges here, that's a whole different story; I still need two Keyes badges and hope I can get those before the new shinies show up

I'll certainly see how they go. The "here's stuff that should have been in I21 anyway and fixing stuff we already broke" half update doesn't really have me stoked right now. And I'm still wanting more actual TFs for higher levels; not nearly as involved as iTrials, but something 8 man teams can still tackle and have fun with.

I admit I squeed a little when I saw Walking Dead in the new arrivals the other day; I have to assume that means Season 2 will be added at some point, right? RIGHT??? It's the only way I'm going to (legally) get to see it :S

Warehouse 13 I added because it sounded interesting to check out. The timing seemed just about right.

I found it odd Tron: Legacy was added to my Instant Queue on it's own, but assume it was placed there because the DVD had been on the DVD queue? I recently switched over to the streaming only option, and am wondering if the DVD queue will be used to port to my stream queue when those selections are converted? Time will tell.

I'd like to continue the discussion regarding this specifically, hoping that the points problem has actually been worked out and this won't happen again. Though I still do not care for the backend approach to getting these.

But this token business needs to change; I'm having a real hard time figuring out why I should maintain a subscription being all tiered out already, knowing I can get bonus points for purchases (given immediately) and for every $15 worth of purchase I get a token as well (again, given immediately). If I'm wrong about any of this, please correct me. I have to be missing something, right? Toss on top of that, I really don't know when I'm going to actually get this token via subscription .... because I've already surpassed my old veteran schedule and still have not gotten a token. If it's based off yet another thing, that's just adding fuel to the fire.

Change the system for subscriptions:
* Token given at the beginging of the cycle
* Points given at the begining of the cycle

Just not seeing the added value of a continued subscription.

I suggest they change this for subscribers to all be on the same damn date.

For giggles, when Freedom launched, which Tokens did we get credit for? They threw in the September one with all the previous "vet time" ones ahead of the supposed "tokens at the end of the month/billing cycle"?

Not so much expect, but wanted:

• more dinosaurs
• lasers
• the pilgrims actually having a hard time adapting
• and just say no to child actors. Yes, seriously.

I got excited?
