White Hot Flash

No need to start yet another Felicia thread. Everyone is reading this one, so let's keep the answers in here, shall we.

If your event isn't fun without prizes, it won't be fun even with huge prizes. If you feel you have to overcompensate because either the sponsor would drive people away that are on the fence about coming, or you just suck at planning an event, that's your deal, but I doubt there's a whole lot of folks that will show up to an event simply because of the prizes awarded. Make it worth their time. You don't have to show everyone how great you are.

"If you are nice" is the focal point of every problem that anyone has with Felicia (not AOW...Felicia). Her definition of "nice" seems to involve some measure of butt-kissing, telling her how great she plays, and possibly some brain matter removal. She also acts like it's some kind of great reward for us to be around her and gain her approval. Does anyone enjoy hanging around people that need constant approval and reassurance in real life? What makes that sound better in a game?

You can try to spin it, Dave, but Felicia brings the drama down on herself every time she pipes up. I would imagine she walks barefoot, to make it easier to open-mouth-insert-foot, after growing tired of the taste of shoeleather.

Now did he actual say it, or are you implying it from other conversations? There might not be a difference to you, but to most people, it makes a big difference, especially when it involves red names. There's a group of forum posters that are wont to extrapolate every minute, obscure comment and try to convince us that "He said it exactly this way, so it must be so." Those folks are the reason the red names on the forums are very obtuse with the majority of their comments and answers.

BAB wasn't joking, either. Alternative does not necessarily mean equivalent. In most cases, it's not. When you chose the alternative to something, you are making a conscious decision to live with what comes with going that route. In this case, it should be that by going all AE, or mostly AE, you are leveling, yes, but leveling slower than someone who does mainly dev created content. Alternative can also imply that any benefit you gain from choosing that route is not necessarily the primary benefit of doing said content. The Devs repeatedly said that AE was a method for the players to share stories, and create content for others to enjoy. A side benefit was that you gained rewards for doing it, but they never implied that AE would be just as good as running the old stuff, and it would be kind of silly of them to want folks to do the AE content instead of the normal stuff by making the rewards too good.

Will players choose to focus their reward-gathering in AE? Yes, same as some like to focus on PvP, or marketing. That doesn't mean the system needs to change to accomodate them.

Well duh...it's called soda, not pop. No wonder you don't win

So instead of throwing out the baby with the bathwater, why not just say "Sorry, no stalkers or MMs" or come up with some kind of handicap? Oh, wait, that involves a few more seconds of work....I forgot. You don't like doing work.

More folks don't bother to read the forums (and sign up for things) than do. Spread the word in game throughout the days leading up to the event, and there'll be more folks participating.

At least one of their events is for villains too, probably more. Don't throw them in with AOW.

I approve of this

Well, they ARE more important than you, cause they can actually do something....all you can do is ***** about it.

Yes, but there's also a fine line between standing up for getting good service for your money, and demanding to be treated like a king for parting with a pittance. Some folks find that line a bit hard to stay behind, and those are the ones that A) cause the most grief for the businessman, and B) cause grief on their fellow customers by inadvertantly making the business give poorer customer service to everyone, whether they complained or not.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf was justified once, but because he complained about nothing so many times, no one cared before it was too late.

So PoN isn't a cool kids club either? LOL...whatever.

People in BMT get kicked when they deserve it, not because of who they are or what group they belong to. The ones that make it a point to act like a dill hole get booted faster than the others, but when you're not there to do anything but cause problems, that's what you deserve.

Since you mentioned it again here, I'll respond here instead of in the other thread.

Personally, I'd prefer animations/poses that lessen the chances for clipping issues. Crossing arms in front looks cool, but not for every character model, nor for every costume. A compromise would be a random pose for every jump, but that might require more work, I suppose.

We'll stop posting in your threads as soon as you start being positive in other people's threads. See what I did there?


If you can't come up with the prizes within your own group, don't advertise that you can. Why is that so hard?

And as a final note, YOU are the only one whining about the quality of events and the general community on this server, and YOU have made it your God-given right and duty to save the Champion server from itself by coming down from on high and gracing us lowly mortals with AOW's presence and scheduling all kinds of crazy events that do nothing to promote whatever it is you're claiming to promote. We're doing just fine, thanks for the concern, and you can keep whatever it is you call common sense.

The real community of Champion knows what's what, and they don't need us pointing out the obvious, but why let that stop some folks from having some lulz on the forums?

I think just about all of us got a blind invite from them at some point, so technically we can all claim to be ex members, if only for as long as it took to see who it was and quit.....I think I just scared myself...(shudders)

Felicia should sign up to pitch for the Yankees. All she does is throw em right over the plate. You can't help but swing.

You don't have to try to be insulting, Felicia, you just do whenever you open your mouth. The above post is just a big sign that says "Don't come to my event unless you're AOW"

As has been said by many since you first posted about this event:

Have fun giving out inf to yourself. It's what you really wanted in the first place.

Welcome back to the game, Mary.
