Boomtown and Faultline raise their hands "Get in line"

I was scrolling through my news feed when I saw a familiar graphic... One year later, City of Heroes' officially recognized fan server...

Looks fine on my screen, just a few shadows. Maybe check your graphics settings?

Back away from the keyboard...breathe...find your happy place

I believe we hit 250 years this June for the Army.

I found a few times where I had forgotten to change the difficulty settings, which made the intermission spawns a bit more interesting

well done! You too must have found the secret open bar

But then there are the Demon Summoners. Those demons sounds are annoying as ... hell. oof

wait...what? *rolls up sleeves* ... a man's gotta eat, Mr Lahey.

There is always next year. Hopefully you will have more time then

Listen to Skyhawke, save yourself! Also, I can't imagine playing the game without it.

I see that, (and raise you) the fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself a fool.

I find "lighten up Francis" works well

That was my exact initial take on the event (I've only done SBB once) and I didn't even run it for the first 10 days or so, but... then I ran the wedding event, solo. As a devout soloist, I found the fight fun on many of my alts, challenging on others. I enjoyed testing my builds and strategies on each different alt. I think my easiest run was with my namesake, a 50 Elec/Elec tank. I prepositioned in the midst of each spawn point and laid waste to them all as they appeared. It was fun.

How about random sequences?

I lost count after 300 or so runs. 47 complete sets, bunch of merits. Hi, my name is Apogee, and I am an alt-aholic...

Wow, dating yourself there

The Dance Gun was one of my favorite CoX videos and during the dark times I would often watch it to remind me of the good old days in the City. One day in the Spring 0f 2019, I stopped at a grocery store on my way home from work. Over the store's speakers, Korn's Word Up started playing and I started grooving down the aisles of the store thinking about the game and how I missed it. When I got home later that day I checked the Task Force Hail Mary thread on the Titan forums (which I hadn't done in about a year) and there was a new thread (that started that day) unveiling the existence of the Secret Server. That was the day everything changed for us. The first server popped up, then shut down. Finally Homecoming was started and here we are. I don't know how long it would have taken me to find the new servers if I hadn't heard "Word Up" that day. It was very serendipitous that I was in that place, at that moment, to hear that song, to spark that memory, on the very day that the news broke. Really, it just blows my mind.

Well...ok then.

For me it's Dr Hetzfeld. He is just so unhinged and the end of his arc is so fitting

You caught me

I must be old. I've never heard of Sea Lioning. Andrew Dice Clay sure, even haiku, but not sea lioning. Who comes up with these terms?

Damn, now I want to get spanked...umm moderated, yeah that's what I meant

Anytime, my friend. I have seen an uptick of Goldsiders lately on Torch. Hopefully more people are enjoying it on the other servers as well.

Sweet
