Perhaps it would motivate the judges to make the best decisions possible if they had to show us what they picked. A small form of accountability, let's say. You're never gonna please everyone, so why not just show the pics and be confident about your decisions.

I'd just be happy with a nice screenshot of each winner with their name displayed, maybe a cut-in of their bio as well. It would help future participants know what the judges are looking for, at the very least. Having the bio in the pic would help those who are a little iffy on the costume itself know that the total package won the contest. Not calling out decisions at all since I wasn't there to see the non-winners either.

Edit: Nice pictures, Arkyaeon.

Glad to know things are looking up for you. I was wondering how you were, not having seen you around lately.

Hell, those two never prove their boasts either. Serves em right.

What population issues? People are free to play wherever they want, whether it be Freedom or Triumph. Is it an issue when someone doesn't get hit with 5 requests for teaming within the first two minutes they log in? Some folks think that would be heaven to have so few. Is it an issue when they ask for a TF and no one answers within 5 minutes? Go do something else and be more patient. Never seen anyone go without something to do if they waited a reasonable amount of time for something, especially if they were flexible.

Is it an issue worth merging servers over when each of the servers has different playstyles and desires, and they have options, rather than be forced to play on a server with more people on it than they'd like? When I want to play with lots of folks, I play on Champion. When I don't care, I go play on Triumph or Protector. Why can't more people do this? Do you need a super-cool SG base that serves little purpose (nothing stopping anyone from creating a similar base on more than one server, or at least make functional ones and have a main decorative base on one server)?

We don't need 4 servers of Freedom's size (or bigger. If servers merged, every one of them would probably have some kind of queue to prevent major lag for everyone.) If people wanted that, they'd be playing on Freedom already.

They were fine last night, directly after the patch was applied. I was on both servers. If it's not the whole game going boink, it's more likely hardware issues.

Am I bad for thinking bad thoughts when I read this?

Lol..ironic. I was planning on moving my BS scrapper from there to here.

Hero side is not so bad most days, but since I've only got heroes there, I have no idea how anemic the redside action is.

You throw in Universal server access like it's as easy a task to implement as what they're doing now.

It's not favoritism. It's just easy to play the martyr. Many folks on this side of the pond won't have a use for the free transfers either. Are they supposed to feel slighted because they were given a gift they can't use either?

Too late. You were already in a stupid argument before this post.

Three looks like it's a reference to the Shadow Shard.

Five is just about Hamidon

True enough, but that was just one event planned from a whole day's worth of activities, all of which could have gone on without her being there, if things were set up like they could have been. It just seems odd that if there's other leaders in the group, no one was leading.

AOW is taking the hit for this, not just Felicia. That's what happens when she advertises it as an SG event.

You meant 3, 4, and 8, right?

*sorry...math teacher spoke up.



I agree with Arcana. They should be shooting for maximizing the graphics, not aiming low to accomodate older cards.

Here you go
