This is tragic. RM brought so much to this game and this community. Rest in peace. ❤️

RM is known for writing a pretty dang significant number of guides for all sorts of things for CoH. He's often on discord, reliably first to the scene whenever someone is in need of help.

Brilliant! Given it a shot. AVG hated trying to install it; I ended up switching AVG off for the install. Once it got going, having stuff transferred from the tequila install was utterly seamless and the game looks like nothing has changed. Game installation was less than a minute for me. I had to add the install folder to my AVG exceptions. But honestly this is just making me think how much I need something that isn't AVG. Had one instance where the game crashed after launching, then loaded itself up again. It's not happened twice.

I associate plant stings with burning feelings. But, I mean, not denying that second thing. ¬_¬

This thread is marked as hot right now. Seems appropriate.

I don't think 8-man hami is necessarily symptomatic of power creep. I see power creep as an increase in average player power vs average environment power - which has definitely happened. But this is still a very impressive edge case.

Just to add a different voice, I do think that the work of CoH fans on other servers is a good thing. I think it's great that this game can carry on through a variety of visions.

I feel like the conclusion of your post is that farming is, in fact, the most efficient way to farm. But I mean yeah, I've always found just playing the content awards plenty.

If you gain all the badges and then lose all the badges, you get a badge.

Throw - Ermine, a ???/Martial Dominator who is waiting for some sort of natural control set. Hope - Miss Hyperion, a Grav/NRG Dominator and probably the only hero I have who actually cares about saving the city without some ulterior motive. Disgusting - Acid, a Water/Poison Defender in a containment suit to keep in all his disgustingness. Kinda starting to phone it in at this point. I kinda regret not having shaded with black and sticking to mid-tones. I'll do one more, I reckon, and then finish there.

HELP THEM!

I know. 😭 And I missed the glorious Doc Buzzsaw. I haven't had time to play all week. *sobs*

❤️ Hope he'll pull through. He's such a good member of this community.

Haha, I did wonder if it wasn't clear, so I edited.

You fiend!

Pretty much that! The repair cafe movement was something that started in the Netherlands and took off across the world. Ours was a monthly volunteer operation which got remarkable traction, so much so that we managed to get some solid research out of it. An existing cafe hosted us. Alas, for obvious reasons, it had to stop this year.

If everyone was EmmySky, everyone would get along.

Yeeeeeeeah! Myst did it for me as well. I learned that you could complete the game straight away if you knew the last puzzle, but that wasn't the point at all. There were worlds to explore! I think I have the first book around somewhere. The game that did it for me was Thief 3 (before we get into this, I do prefer Thief 2), which I played when I studied Interior Design. It had a mission called the Shalebridge Cradle. I still refer to it as one of the best bits of spatial storytelling I've ever seen, real world or otherwise. Outer Wilds is the best game I've played this year.

Just out of curiosity, what are the project outputs? Do you need to design the garments themselves, or is it focused on the branding and marketing? I've been commandeered into teaching on fashion courses a couple of times, despite my decrepit wardrobe. Fashion courses are crazy fun.

I ran a repair cafe a few years ago, and clothes came through our doors like nobody's business. Reparable goods that can stay in circulation have got to be the future. Just from the perspective of academic rigour, it might be worth collecting some data on the sorts of people responding to your questionnaire. It's one thing to know what people generally think, but you really want some data that tells you why they might think that way and what sort of backgrounds you're looking at. It will also help you to tighten up your prospective market or reveal unexpected opportunities. Keep up the good work!

Day 8 - Teeth. As in Gearteeth. It's Kitbash, my Fire/Rad Corruptor! He's an altered clockwork made to actually mechanically work by steampower instead of just be psychically controlled, but the latent connection with the clockwork king seems to still control him. He's built his own body from random assortments of mechanisms and armour.

Super Mario.

This is an interesting question. I take it to mean something like "actively exclusive", particularly to the point of rudeness to maintain an inner circle. The whole gatekeeping vibe. "Toxic masculinity" is an example, where someone in that circle might say: "You're not a real man unless you can benchpress a tractor with your beard." (or whatever it is real men do). It's a needless and illusionary competition for identity. I don't think differences of opinions necessarily apply, especially when discussed neutrally and are accepted as different viewpoints rather than hard truths. In fact, I think that's a very healthy thing to have. When it turns to "well you're clearly not a [place identity here] because you don't agree/know about things/behave in such a way/otherwise conform," and that becomes the cultural stance in the community, that's getting toxic.

This is the only power I would ever use.
