  1. Hello! So I built a concept toon that needed to be an ice/ice stalker and I have yet to figure one thing out in particular. 

     

    It seems that there is an inconsistency with Ice Patch and I cannot for the life of me figure out what the pattern is. Most of the time it does NOT take me out of HIdden. Once in a while, usually while soloing, it does. I've no idea what the mechanisms behind this are. 

     

    Anyone else with more knowledge on this?

  2. I'm a die-hard stand up comedy aficionado. Please don't ask me who my "favorite" is because that's too difficult. I can answer questions like "Who's your favorite clean comedian?" (Brian Regan) or "Who's the best nerdy comedian?" (Jackie Kashian) but if you get to broad, there are too many. There is a HUGE range that I enjoy. 

    I prefer small clubs to giant venues. I try to get to at least one show per month, but don't always make it. I had one exhausting weekend which was Alonzo Bodden on Thursday, Jim Jeffries on Friday, and Patton Oswalt on Saturday. 

    When I am able I take photos in clubs. Here are a couple of my favorites. Me & Christopher Titus; me and the comedian I have a CoH character named after. Her name is Fortune Feimster (she's the one with curly hair) so I have a widow named Fortunata Feimster.

  3. There are powers in this game that I HATE. There is one in particular that will make me leave a team if I find out someone has it and is using it. I am fortunate that I have never joined a TF that someone is using it because I honestly don't know what I'd do then. I personally wish it was removed from the game because it's so damned annoying.

    Not even my closest friends know what it is because I'm polite enough to make up an excuse and leave a team when I see it. I find it absolutely SHOCKING that there are people out there who tell others what powers and ATs they should have and how to play. Bow out quietly. If enough people hate your play style, you won't find any teams.

  4. I keep forgetting these outdated arcs are still around in Ouroborus. I absolutely LOVED this particular arc. The old SG I was with used to do "hot tubbing at Tyrant's" to see who could last the longest in the lava pool before we'd beat on Tyrant. 

     

    Good times! I'll have to go run this sometime if I can find peeps interested. 

  5. I'm very curious about this because I noticed a trend in my characters. Very few, if any, of my RP characters are particularly smart. I have two that are pretty average and one I haven't played much that is average, but absolutely NONE of them are geniuses or even very smart. 

     

    Most of them are dumb as dirt or at least completely oblivious to things. I always liken the Leaping Lemur to Pinky from Pinky and the Brain who only heard "Blah blah blah, Pinky, big word, blah blah blah, really big word, blah blah." in his head when someone smart is talking. My zombie only says "grrr", "arrg" and "Brains!". And the Ferocious Foosa doesn't really understand much, unless you're talking about food. 

    Maybe it's because I enjoy humorous aspects more than serious, but I honestly prefer to play the dumb characters. How about you?

  6. Sometimes it's difficult to get the recent sales to come up to see what you should choose as a list price. I've always had luck, however, placing a mock purchase of 1 influence then hitting the "find" button to see what the most recent sales are. It's helped me not price something that's not going to sell.

     

  7. I'd love to see a goof ball SG get started. I just have absolutely ZERO interest in playing a serious character anymore. Just something generic and inclusive of all the silly ideas out there. 

    If folks would have interest in that, let me know. @Leaping Lemur in game

    I get that people want to be in large active SGs, nothing wrong with that. but keep in mind that mega SGs are not exactly something special, and tend to be filled with a lot of drama and inter player conflicts over time. Seen my share back on lvie as well on other MMO and frankly hope more people look for SGs of like minded players and RP themes before looking at the membership numbers.

     

    As someone who used to help run a coalition with ten different super groups in it, I can absolutely confirm this. It definitely had it's ups and downs and it was HUGE. Fortunately, many of us who were at the core have stayed in touch over the years as have other groups of friends within the coalition. 

    I would NEVER try to do it again, however.  I'd be extremely happy with small SGs of close knit friends. 

  9. An excellent time to tie weekly allowance to number of bombs disabled, threats countered, dishes washed, garbage taken out, and similar heroic actions.

     

    A couple of weeks ago he asked me to buy him some soda. I bought him a 12 pack and he asked me if I wanted him to pay me back in influence or cash. I took the influence, of course.  :D

     

     

     

  10. My son and I were in the middle of an ITF. A thunder storm had been building for quite some time. He looked up from the game for a moment and out the window. Then he shouted:

     

    "Oh my god, Mom, look! There's a Rikti invasion outside!"

     

    It did indeed look like that.  ;D ;D

  11. It's a pity I don't really do RP because one of my characters would be an excellent fit here. Part of his backstory is that Paragon University tends to palm some of the less capable grad students off on him in order to get them (and him) out of the way.

     

    Aw man, that would be PERFECT. She'd definitely be the type to be palmed off on someone the admin doesn't like.
