Dropout

What a fantastic collection of bases, it's a shame I only have the one vote! A huge thank-you to everyone who made this possible.

Thanks so much for organizing a shard-wide contest to bring these awesome bases out of the woodwork!

Thanks to everyone who entered or even just thought really hard about it, it's been fun to see all the neat spaces people are willing to put out there. I have a crush on every build!

Thank you to the HC team for all the time they volunteer to give us cool new stuff, and for listening to the community every step of the way.

ECT's progress as a treatment has no relevance to its historical use to torture marginalized persons, many of whom take solace in Superhero games like ours and don't appreciate being told what should and shouldn't upset them. So far the Homecoming team has been good at stamping out hate and will keep a close eye on the dog whistle potential of this name; insisting people just get over it is probably not necessary.

I could seriously tour bases all day, so it was great to meet some LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS. Thank-you for hosting this contest and thank you for putting yourselves out there! Everyone's a winner in my book, if you don't believe me, check your in-game mail.

On the off chance it qualifies: Carma Island (KARMA-508), by @Dropout. Once a lonely abbey sitting on a rock in the Atlantic, the island became a haven for pirates sailing between the Caribbean and the Rogue Isles, paying the monks hefty "indulgences" to forgive their plunder in the eyes of the almighty (and keep it safe). By the Golden Age of Pirates, the island's thin morals and thick bribes had grown it into a port town; understood as a neutral place where rich outlaws could carouse in safety and retire in peace. Today it's regarded as a Switzerland of the Americas, where supervillains meet to resolve very sensitive business -- but mostly to be old, rich and cranky somewhere no-one will bother them. It's currently open to outsiders to commemorate the 450th birthday of the original abbey. The base had around 11000 items when this contest was announced and has around 13000 now. /Visscale 4 or higher is highly recommended!

More costumes, balanced powers.
