  1. Hope to be there this time. Can't guarantee though. Will check in channel when I arrive.
  2. I just now took a few minutes time to read through this. @Midnyte, you did a fantastic job of recapping this, thank you for taking the effort. It's great to see that this is continued, I like to think of of it as becoming part of Theme Team Tradition 😁 Also, Cheetos seemed to be a dominant Topic. Reading through Rich's List of Obscure Facts about Cheetos makes me wonder what kind of Superadine-flavored-Cheetos he is taking.... 😉
  3. That is basically the most illustrated and comprehensive way I have ever seen somebody explain this shit! Because this is so counterintuitive to anything that you believe to know about auction houses. Thanks a lot! Now, with this knowledge, how this would help my marketeering I still have to find out. As everybody who is dealing with The Market knows, the Art Of Rightpricing is not an easy one to master...
  4. Oh man, I have so many fiery sleeper-toons that I would like to play more, this was a really hard decision! @TrixieKixx: I think this is a good time to show Mr O'Hallows some love again (going back to the roots with a Plant/Fire Controller... Or could be Fire/Plant, not sure right now 🤔)
  5. Making it short: won't be there today. Good Hunting, folks!
  6. Oh yes, those bids of course went instantly. I should have put the 20 things (don't even remember what it was) on a shelf somewhere! 🙂
  7. Did I hear Zombies? It looks like sunday I will be good to go this time. Signing Up with Le Savant, my Voodoo Zombi Master. The Tarikoss SF is also one of my favorites redsiders (although I don't really know too many yet..)
  8. So this happens to me again... Just bidding 6000 on 10x some uncommon salvage, twice, only to see that the price still kept the 250 I spent on some commons before, for a total of 6.000.250 Inf EACH for 20pcs 🥳 There goes 120mil of my (thanks to Reading Up here easily earned) money... 😑
  9. @TrixieKixx Hi Trix, I am not sure if I will take part this saturday, I have plans for some family time. It still is kinda unclear what we are going to do, so I am not completely out yet. But don't count on me this time. Just in case, you can sign me up with Captain Future ( Pistols/Willpower Sentinel). The Nerd Part may need some explanation to make sense, I don't think you guys in the US are familiar with the Anime. But it will be a good one. 🙂
  10. Nice pics again from yesterday, @FrauleinMental and @Midnyte. Good action shots, and I always like the close-ups of everybody. It makes it much easier to appreciate the works of art that you come up with every week. After struggling myself a little bit with making something fit to this theme, I was very much surprised that you guys apparently had a lot less trouble finding those special looks! 👍 It seemed to be a kinda Off-Week for a few of us, so therefore I came up with this brilliant title for my (short, really....) recap. I still enjoyed myself running this, even though we may remember it as the "Too Much Sugar Hurts Your Brain"-Theme Team. Now, what do I recall, apart from decision making if this is supposed to be a speed run or not... - The City of Hereos Strike Force Mantra: In case of doubt, follow the Tank! (I tried to do that most of the time, until I lost sight of him hiding on top of that ruined Atlas Globe... it didn't occur to me that I needed to look up! That's where confusion kicked in 🙂) - Yes. We found a room full of doors again. All empty... even before we smashed'em. Funny thing is, one of the doors apparently struck back at an unsuspecting Demonling! - It was a nice haul of rewards, but there are definitely easier ways than this Strike Force. Especially when you are not as familiar with running these as, say, an Imperious... - Cookie Doughs pet names were killer! Awesome idea! 🏆 Here are a few more pics from my collection: Yummy Line-Up. I feel the need... the need to eat! See, Umber? I got your little back detail and that cute tin-crown-that-wasn't-a-cherry nicely on film! 😉 Going in... Now about those doors... I couldn't help but... Bababaluba Barap Bap Bap! Getting prepped for the 1st wave of heroes Just how The Captain likes it! Rounding up for the final mission: Everybody still looking good! Finish Line. The Bananaplant and Spirit Tree standing in for Cookie and Apple... Lessons were learned... Bonus Pic this time goes out to @TygerDarkstorm Enjoy Real Life next week!
  11. I was in the exact same situation like you and felt the same way. Luckily this time I just made it back into the mission at the last moment to be there when it finished. But I also don't worry if I miss out on some bagde or other reward if that happens.
  12. @TrixieKixx I put something together which I think will work, so let's sign up Captain Creme Brûleé for a trip to the Spider-Man (he's a Plant/Rad Controller) Edit: And following up on my suggestion for a "Favorite Musician/Band"-Theme, let me also pitch in a "Favorite Song"-Theme...
  13. Well, I can only speak for my toon, of course. Savant is a Voodoo-themed Necro/Dark Mastermind, with the french name telling about his background. To quote from the Bio: "The eternal figure in black, Ghede is controlling the eternal crossroads at which everyone must someday cross over. His symbol is the cross upon a tomb. Known as the spirit of death, other spirits fear him and try to avoid him. Le Savant D'Ombre is his ardent disciple. He operates under the direction of Baron Samedi, who represents the death side of Ghede. He is the power behind the magic that kills. He controls the souls of those who have met death as a result of magic." It is not a character built to the likeness of anybody, just what I thought a Voodoo-powered villain could look like.
  14. Thank you for the honor! I appreciate this greatly! Edit: ...and good job everyone making the Finals, those concepts look impressive!
  15. Wait, what? Edit: Well, I be damned! I apologize in advance for now outbragging anybody else in the forseeable future! 😇
  16. I was searching for the glowing white Disney princess on the right side of Fräulein, and it may be a matter of perspective, but I could only find one on the left 😉
  17. Rrrright….😉😁 I too was throwing myself with fervor at the giant monster fight after the contest, looking forward to mayhem, badges and all that stuff! But after getting knocked out 3 times without even getting a shot off myself, I realized that even sidekicked to lvl50 my lvl11 toon was not going to cut it there. ☠️ I think I was much better off in the end running my Mastermind through that Penny Yin with Jaxx and Trixie again!
  18. I have to say I absolutely love what is happening here! Every single winner/finalist you picked here is just awesome as far as I am concerned! Applause! 👏 And keep it up please. Looking forward to seeing more of those great concepts. Would love to take part myself, but the time and date is in the middle of night over here…
  19. I was asking myself if Voodoo would be considered some kind of folklore (it definitely doesn’t fit the bill for fairy tale or fable), but it seemed to be close enough to home. And I didn’t have any other toon ready that would have been remotely fitting anyway…. But watching the competition it became pretty obvious quickly that there was a way too high bandwith of interpretations, I would say. Let’s hope that they will be more specific about it in the future, or maybe take into account having bios if the toons are not self-explaining.
  20. Well, both Snow White and Rapunzel are definitely plain old central European fairy tales and as such would allow any kind of interpretation for this CC. That being said, I would think it is save to assume that if you took any likeness to the Disney movie versions of those stories, you would get ripped by the admins, given their touchiness about trademarks.
  21. That name is also brilliant btw, @Vigilant Vergil! 👏
  22. Hmmmm, now that will be interesting… Thinking about this I would say my favorite dessert is Creme Brulée… or Kaiserschmarren… But I have absolutely no idea yet how to put either of THAT into a costume! I will probably dress up Bananiac again in some way. Choice of LVL45plusses is growing, but still limited…
  23. Wonderful postings, @Midnyte and @FrauleinMental! Feels like having been there, appreciate it! Impressive line-up of costumes again (and applause for the great bios)! Looking at them, I am struggling to name a favourite! Although I can see a certain likeness between Workshop and the toon I would have brought, so that would naturally make him a frontrunner for my pick of the day 🙂 I also have to salute the Kraftwerk homage! Which brings up this question: @TrixieKixx, we all know your obsession with food themes by now 😉, but how about a „favourite musician/band“ theme for one of the future runs? Final note: glad I got the donations ping yesterday with the reminder for the costume contest! And that the hotel wifi did hold up for the duration… Le Savant D’Ombre was at the right place, at the right time 🙂 http://i.imgur.com/n8MQ5Lc.gifv I have to say, however, that this CC theme seemed to be too unspecific… I failed to recognize any relation to any fables, lores or myths that I would know of at a good deal of the entrants (some of which still looked stunning nonetheless, of course, but a little explanation in a bio here or there would likely have helped). Would love to see what you guys ran with on Indom (or wherever you participated). Please post some pics!
  24. As for the Reunion Contest, I can only say the judges displayed an exceptional choice of good taste and appreciation to a worthy circle of finalists! (...again)🏆 P.S.: Talking about which, any heads up on when I can expect my crate of glorious goodies? 😎😉🎉
  25. Just found this thread and I think it is another shining example of what I so like about this Game! Applause!👏 On a separate note: Who here of you busy Guys&Gals from Sales and Purchasing did NOT have this happen to him or her at one time? I have been both on the giving and the receiving end of something like this a couple times. Albeit basically an order of magnitude below the original posting. So for me it probably equalled out okay 😎
