  1. Also, Welcome home!
  2. 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.
  3. Was that the crack you could TP through? I thought they plugged that, couldn't find it last time I tried.
  4. 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.
  5. Generally, anything with "wiki" in the name is intended to be user-editable.
  6. 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.
  7. 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!
  8. 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.
  9. He uses a front-silvered mirror and cools it with his freeze-breath. (At least in my head-canon!)
  10. 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...
  11. And that's why Luminara has twice as many likes as posts! Hat's off!
  12. Welcome home!
  13. Oh, wait, that's Warwitch. My bad. So... she's available?
  14. No need to fight over her, folks! One of you can pursue her in Croatoa, the other in Pocket D.
  15. No need to be snippy with the OP, if a name offends, it's offensive. If the Mods think it'll offend a lot of people, out comes the generichammer. Otherwise, agreed, /em eye_roll and move on.
  16. Oh, that's right! Remember to email @Yomo right away! Find a University Borrow a computer, email @Yomo. Then find a bank that isn't currently being robbed. (NB: This may take a while.) Convert Yomo's generosity into hard cash. Profit!
  17. Good point, I hadn't thought of that. It's not like you can get to the character creation screen from in-game! I guess it depends on whether you are in the game, or in a parallel universe where Paragon City is an actual place. I'd hope for the latter, but that universe is a bit odd. Terminal velocity is low enough that a fall at that speed is something you can shake off. Sometimes contacts can give you stuff over the phone. Elevators only go to one floor, max. And people can change their clothes right out in plain view of everyone, instantly, with no suitcase in sight. I'd still take it if I could.
  18. It is possible to do rude but classy. I was on a Hami raid with "Sybian Ryder" who had a completely innocent bio. Had to give 'em props.
  19. But that would free up the name for someone else to use!
  20. I had a little something in my eye walking up the steps to Atlas, but I totally lost it when I first heard the Steel Canyon music. Home at last!
  21. lol! Or say "You've wasted 450 hours of your life in this game."
  22. Would you grab your purse and go play tug-of-war with an Outcast? Stand at the bus stop and wait until the heat-death of the universe? Hang out at Terra Volta hoping for an Origin? Go steal a magic artifact from "Butterfingers" Azuria?
