My baloney has a first name it's... X IT'S TAKEN??? Drat! Umm, how about 0scar Meyer? X 0scar M3yer? X Oscar_Meyer? X xxxOscar Meyerxxx? X xxx0zkahr_M3y3rxxx? X ...Weiner Whistle? ✔️

Zemo's about to get a chance at supervillain redemption. He's the villain of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and from what I've seen, he'll be closer to his comic book counterpart. Here's hoping they don't super glue his purple balaclava to his head though. I always felt that was a really ludicrous concept in the comics.

You say that like it's something new. Let us speak of "Captain Marvel".

I used to be a Scout, and was often in woods or farm fields, and have never had a poison ivy problem. That said, my very good friend, an Eagle Scout, merely looks at poison ivy and breaks out. In his terms he has to "dry out" the rash, so he was always using something that dried it out, like witch hazel or alcohol or vinegar (cider, I think). There used to be a specific soap Scout shops sold for dealing with poison ivy, oak, and sumac, but I've forgotten the name. Lest you're jealous of my seeming immunity, I got a taste of what it's like the day I moved railroad ties in the hot sun, and had no idea about creosote. Wipe the sweat from my brow often, just to make the experience truly miserable.

I'm surprised the cats didn't lunch on the spider. I can't keep cats because of severe allergies, but I watched one of my sister's cats just devour a spider crossing the carpet. As I'm also severely arachnophobic, Taffy became my new favorite cat. Also, my favorite comics are ones with Garfield hitting spiders with newspapers... especially the ones that get in a repeat shot. Thanks, but if I need live indoor creepy crawly control, I'll get a couple of geckos.

You are quite the optimist, aren't you?

I'm now wanting every article of the painter's costume available at Icon.

Let us know when that happens. I'm not sure I have any active on Torch, but I'd love to have a version of my energy/energy blapper with the KB unleashed.

Oh, that. Naw, that wasn't viciousness, that was folks trying out your new aggressive savage melee.

There is an option for "masks with hair". The "masks" in this case, function more like patterns on the face. Here, I'll visualize it for you. The line that reads "Demise" in this snapshot is where you'll find the masks. Note that the head is set to "Standard". Tiaras for the male model I'm drawing a blank on right now. I can only think of two: one is basically a sweatband and part of the hair selections, and the other is the winged headband. Not really what you're after, I think, but if you want to take a look, its found under "Detail 1" when generally covers features on the upper half of the face/head. It's possible I've overlooked something really obvious, as I don't work with that look.

Must have been H. P. Lovecraft's birthday.

On Excelsior I've now snagged Ice Maker, and for an ice/fire character I was surprised to snag FreezOr Burn.

You've got 3 on the list that should be water-based GM's. We could really use a few more in game. Currently, we've got Lusca and Sally, and I don't really consider the latter a true GM. There are others that can operate in water, such as the Kraken and occasionally Jurrasik in Crey's Folly, but to the best of my memory, that's it. I'm pretty sure the red side lacks a water-based GM, so the potential for 3 would be a welcomed sight.

Such a fun film, and Sean Connery sings! The banshee never bothered me, but the Wicked Witch of the West? I hid behind the consol TV. And if I was honest, approaching Lusca still makes me a tad nervous after long ago hiding...where else?...behind the consol TV when the giant squid of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea attacked.

It's not really scenic, but I was very impressed with a fellow player's avatar in the original game. At the time, we didn't have all the costume options and creativity we do now, and I'd never seen anything like it. If this belong to any of you, kudos to you:

Well, since you brought it up... I figure a Sonic Control set partnered with a Time Manipulation set ought to do the trick.

Wow! Glad this is only from the perspective of the user. It's remarkable to be sure, but I think I'd jump mightily if one of these sonics unexpectedly unleashed behind me in a CoT cave.

Taking a breather after that last TF.

I'll settle for a temp power chainsaw, and a badge for felling 100 trees in the Perez Park or Eden mazes. Clear that rot out! (Then get a 10-use chainsaw temp power with the badge. Bring me the Banished Pantheon!) Okay, a bit more seriously, how about creating several AV's or even GM's that appear if you clear a few hundred of their gangs hanging around empty zones? Potentially useful for getting teams to clear mobs for badges, and get an AV or GM fight at the end.

I wonder, development always strives for improvements, but what of taking it the other direction to "fix" a weakened change? Using your viewpoint of the Hollows as example, can such a change be reasonably undone in the current game? Maybe using new storyline to "push out" the "mobs that did not belong there", and create a hazard reflective (but perhaps superior) to the original? It sounds a bit like the "correction" the OG game did to remove 5th Column and replace with Council.

Jealous 'cause I didn't think of it first to go with my serial sci-fi characters. Well done!

I know it'd be asking a lot, but I'd dig having a rolling fog. That is, it moves slowly through the area, clearing in some areas, so you can see the layout, while building to a blinding fog in other spots, before subsiding and the effect moving elsewhere. Get it right, and the fog moves like a creepy, living thing.

I didn't do much on Victory. I did know of taxi guilds on multiple other servers. Even so, taxis were not always available, so yeah, running was a challenge.

I foresee COH facepalm memes in the near future.

On those characters I keep on the ground, I've learned to drop one end redux onto sprint to compensate for my forgetfulness. Learned the hard way not to take an under-50's team to do a league's job again the giant robot in Boomtown.
