I don't know that I've run with Kidengineer before, but Imp's got that **** on lockdown. I ran that SF this one time where we beat the thing with no deaths and no temp powers, but the parameters weren't set, so no badge.
I'll be there for Barracuda. Since we pretty much need at least one of everything, I'll leave who I bring up in the air. I can bring any AT 'cept Corrupter. I'm remaking my Corrupter when Rogue comes out. -
Quote:Seeing how we got at least 3 people who normally lead who are not going to make it, let's postpone this one to the 13th. Same time. Sooner, if you want to try leading MMs for the next one, I don't think there'll be any objection.Originally Posted by Sooner
Well, if Vega's not there, I can step in as MM lead, if ya like.
If he makes it, the team's all his. -
Sure, set the mission to +2/3 and AV and he's worth mucho XP. Sign me up for a couple slots. ^_^

Ok, I see this week's word block is being rather facetious. Let me clarify a couple of things:
1- We are looking for contacts' last name as it appears in the game so it can be a Surname or in the case of some Asian names, the last part of their name. Example: If we take someone randomly called Park Yoona, Park is the Surname but I am looking to get Yoona as it is the name that is positioned last.
2- Bell, Fish, Ku and Lin aren't in the list. I did not input those names when I generated the word block.
3- Once a name is on your list, it can't be listed a second time (I understand Boyd appears twice for some reason).
4- Seeing as this week's puzzle was a bit out of the ordinary, feel free to post a second time, even if you've posted in this thread already!
I hope this is making it a bit easier! -
Quote:OK, let me rephrase... IF Black's assertion about last name is correct, there's a problem with the first 3 submissions. Other than that, I'm agreeing with ya.Originally Posted by Balanced
Well, the category says "last name", as opposed to "surname" (or equivalent), though people tend to use the two interchangeably here. If we bring that reasoning into it, we make even more of a mess of things. I still say that the flaw is in the puzzle more than in the answers. A randomly-generated grid of reasonable size for the puzzle is often going to include extra answers when some of the potential answers are so short. Maybe the category should have been restricted to names of 4 or more letters? Of course, that assumes that none of the short names are correct.

Quote:True, but given Black's reasoning for Cho, there's a flaw in all 3 submissions...Originally Posted by Balanced
I'm not entering, so I don't have a horse in this race, but reading your rules for the contest in the first post, it looks like any entry that marks 10 words that meet the defined category--hero contacts' last names--is a valid contender. I'll stipulate that it should probably be 10 distinct words, though that isn't stated explicitly.
Since you don't provide a list of the words, and don't allow multiple entries in the contest, it strikes me as unfair to dismiss an otherwise valid entry because it doesn't match your secret list. It's not the players' fault that extra words crept into the puzzle. -
You might want to point out which words should be disregarded otherwise it becomes a guessing game.

Just a reminder that the raid is happening tomorrow. If anyone's interested in getting bio payload nukes for it, just give me a holler and I'd be happy to help.

I thought about trying it out until I heard that they're doing lifetime subscriptions like with CO.

Great raid. Hoping to see the same kind of turn out next week for the hero raid. Look out for T's post.
-
OK, so I'll lead the yellow mito brute team. Vega will lead the MM team. T will lead the spike team. Elric will target from the dom team. Also, is there interest in running weekly raids? We can alternate sides between blue and red.

I'm good 23 or 30th. I'll let you guys make the call. Just post when you've decided. We'll talk on TS tonight.

Happy Birthday! (From both of us)

For the STF:
I'd go with the classic...
1 Damage Resistance Based Tanker (w/ Taunt)
2 Radiation Emissions
1 Kinetic
2 Cold Domination/Force Field
2 Blasters
For Numina:
It's more about the players/coordination than team build, but let's go with...
1 Tanker
4 Blaster/Scrapper
3 Buff/Debuff
For Posi/Synapse:
You get a much bigger bang for your buck with defense...
8 man version (with these a lot of speed runs are done with less on the team):
2 Cold Domination/Force Field
1 Kinetic with SB available during the TF
5 Blasters
With that said, it is still important to have players who know what they're doing, particularly with the more technical TF/SFs. -
Great run. Thank you to everyone who showed up. ^_^
-
Well, T's got the scrapper team, Sooner's got the targeting team. I'm presumably gonna handle the tanker team. I need someone leading the spike team and someone leading the controller team. Any volunteers?
