I try to remember, once I've gathered all the Exploration and History badges in a zone, to hit P2W Reveal, so the zone (to that character) appears clear and I know they've done it. But: Doesn't always stick. Never seen the wrong character's fog pattern AFAIK, though.

"This is a stupid idea." Everyone happy now? OK, on to suggestions: What you need is a charismatic team leader who knows Redside backwards and forwards. Advertise the event well in advance, and in LFG on the day. Offer to buy temp powers or P2W travel powers for anyone lacking, so there's always a quick path to the next mish. Depart from Pocket D so Null is handy. Then at the end of a great arc, or TF, or whatever, come back here and rave about how much fun it was (if it was...). Bring pictures! This is not original with me. This is the formula RoboTechMaster used to use to run the infamous Doctor Q TF in the Shadow Shard. On Live, this was an arduous 8-to-10 hour slogfest. (It got ever slower as folks bailed.) The way he ran it, it was a 2-hour freewheeling mayhem party. On WTF week, you grabbed 288 merits for running the damn thing. Amazing. All the worlds lost a great talent and a great person with his passing. But we can learn from him! (And his damn cat pun characters!)

DFB is soloable now. Not that you'd know it from the LFG spam.

And here, sir, is your 19,999,998 change. Thanks for shopping S-Mart!

Oh, folks use it all the time. Solo, it's the quickest way to Cimerora! I use it also, but only once I've got my team together, to launch the TF. I've never had any success with the automatic "Join random/selected TF" function. (I suspect because HC's population is ~10% of NC's version.)* The LFG channel is well worth breaking out into its own tab. That's where most recruiting happens these days. * plus or minus 9.99999% error bar.

There are some oft-heard phrases from live I certainly don't miss! Does anyone wax nostalgic for: $$$Big SALE$$$ 1.000.000.000 inf!! 19,99 US DULLOR$ plz send bank info to [email protected]!

By my WAG, 70% of team issues could be solved with this inherent power. Great advice!

Amazing! Commander Adama would be so proud!

If the database of old characters had been restored, I'd go for a snap! Since it wasn't, I assume the universe is new, and because they devoted much of their energy to anti-gravity, sorcery, mad science and the like, their cellphones are a bit bulkier, their monitors are CRT, and their elevators only serve one person at a time.

Also, Welcome home!

Brief experience with it, but the idea of "It's always night in Gotham and always day in Metropolis" thing sticks with me. Cute reflection of the comics. OTOH, it seems it's always gloomy in the Rogue Isles, and that doesn't add to my fun. Go figure.

Was that the crack you could TP through? I thought they plugged that, couldn't find it last time I tried.

I left a character parked in the Arena construction area back on Live. When next I logged in, the Arena patch had dropped, and he was stuck under the floor. Close as I got. Everybody is familiar with Egg Hunter, the TARDIS on top of Pocket D, and the Dev Lounge in Faultline, though, right? And the Paragon Dance Party is still there for those who remember it.

Generally, anything with "wiki" in the name is intended to be user-editable.

IIRC, Cryptic swore up and down that the removal of the 5th Column has anything to do with sales in Germany. Yeah, I didn't buy it back then, either.

Mayhem Missions, far and away the best part of Redside! Seriously, check the Guides for how to get Lord Schnauzer as a contact, Mayhem Missions are some of the most fun you can have with your costume on! I find low-level Villain mishes, fighting Snakes and such, to be a lot of fun after endless Outcasts and Skuls. Have to confess, in the mid-range, where you start to feel like an aspiring lackey, is where I wander off. Radio and TV are a blast, though!

One of the first word processors I used, Bank Street Writer maybe, did this. My writer's group settled on the idea that this was "So you can see the stuff you haven't written yet." I know runs of spaces are infamous for adding invisible non-breaking spaces between each successive space character, presumably as a work-around for something in the parser. AFAIK that was a hack because HTML otherwise combined them, but that can definitely be a cause for the also infamous shrinking character limit problem. I tend to avoid most of the editing issues by writing my stuff in Notepad++ (playing) or vim (at work), then using the copy-pasta. Pre-snap, I recall seeing the occasional player with a bio of "." presumably because they thought it was a required field.

He uses a front-silvered mirror and cools it with his freeze-breath. (At least in my head-canon!)

Or, if you meet that special someone at a bar and are in a hurry, just see the shady character upstairs of the Voodoo Lounge...

And that's why Luminara has twice as many likes as posts! Hat's off!

Welcome home!

How are you working the keyboard?

Point taken... so to speak.

For the love of Mike, don't look at your feet!

Oh, wait, that's Warwitch. My bad. So... she's available?
