Hi everyone, just a reminder the August costume contest is tonight, starting at 7pm Eastern sharp in Atlas. (I recommend coming a few minutes early so you're ready to reserve your spot as spots will be limited.) I'm looking forward to seeing all your original characters! ❤️

Might be interesting. I'd be curious what the criteria would be and if that criteria would be public.

Agreed -- looks great! I also like it dark.

+1 May have a natural home under Art & Multimedia if it was utilized for world building and creative writing as well.

If this doesn't already exist, it would be great to have a feed out of the weekly strike force and other details that sg's can have a bot post automatically in a text channel of their sg discords. (I'm not the techie of my group so you're going to have to bear with me as I explain,) but when I've played other MMOs, I've seen this utilized in guilds to great effect. It seems like you need some sort of text feed published by the developers to pull the data into a discord channel. This might already be out there and I'm not aware of it, so if it is, can someone pop a link? Any instructions/guidance pages would also be gratefully received so we can get this up in running. Generally getting this info into the sg discord would provide faster and clearer communication of the weekly rewards would allow the sg leaders to mobilize participants with little maintenance effort and in a more organized fashion than just posting in LFG. From a dev perspective, if more is included than weekly information in these feeds, such as announcements or other key changes to the game (such as the pop up window of announcements we get), I'm sure players would benefit from that and be interested to have sg discord access to that information too.

Interesting 2nd and 3rd place positions right now...

Hey Chance. First you would need to have a supergroup. To coalition, you would grant others access to your supergroup and vice versa. (You would need to be a member of the sg who has those permissions.)

Congrats to Torcel and Armads on another exceptionally successfully villains night tonight. 🙂 I'm happy to report The Cool Kids? is positioning to run monthly costume contests through January 2020 as of this post. The details for the August contest have been confirmed and added to the initial post of this thread. Here are the details for your convenience: The Cool Kids? August 2019 Costume Contest Date: Thursday 8/15 at 7:00pm Eastern Prize: First Place 100,000,000 influence, Second Place 50,000,000 influence, Third Place 25,000,000 influence Zone: Atlas Park Judge: @Epitaph Theme: Original Concept In other words, the best candidate will have a name that embodies your hero’s character concept that has not been used before. Powers and powersets should fit with the character name, and costume and auras should also be complementary to the character concept. Entrants who have the best costume within this theme will win. To participate, please look for advertisements in LFG prior to the start time of the event and follow the instructions posted.

We have multiplied into *3* brave souls!

So apparently one of the game GM's appeared at one of Eda's Mothership Raids ~4 weeks ago as the mothership Giant Monster. If anyone has any pictures, or if you know which GM it was, or if you know the date, please let me know!

Kudos to the single brave soul who did not vote for influence in your response (at the time of this post). My hat off to you for standing against the current, sir or madam. 👒

I will be running impromptu BAF's tomorrow Tues 7/30/19 starting at 7pm ET and probably running to at least 9pm ET.

A new super group logo has been added to the first post of this thread. 😆

Please respond to this poll on costume contest rewards.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the first ever costume contest sponsored by The Cool Kids? super group. Can I be honest and say it was really hard to choose a single winner of the 100,000,000 influence prize? There were so amazing participants with amazing costume entries. You're all winners in my book! 😥 *sniff* The winner of today's costume contest was Cultivated Darkness on the Indomitable server. Cultivated was a gracious winner and exceptionally generous. Here is the winning costume: Congratulations again to Cultivated, and thank you to everyone who participated. You made some memories for me. ❤️

As of July 22, 2019, The Cool Kids? welcomes @Epitaph to our ranks! Our SG is changing from this: To this: in the initial post of this thread

I'm interested in learning more about PvP on Indomitable. If I get enough knowledge on PvP I'd be interested in running some events through my super group or collaborating with another sg or individual/individuals who can show me the ropes or lead.

Ahaha hilarious. BTW @Caemgen I sent you a global friend request. I'm @Zandera. Any plans to resurrect the Daybreakers?

Seems like it would be best to plan ahead to roll Praetorian characters and run content together at least a few times.

Sounds like fun, and I know at least 1 person already in FREEM. I'll see if I can make it one of these days. I have at least a single lvl 7 with a beam rifle who's looking for some action. 😛

The Cool Kids? will be hosting a costume contest on Friday, July 26th 2019 beginning at approximately 7:00 PM Eastern on some not-full instance of Atlas Park of the Indomitable server. The single grand prize will be 100 million influence to be paid out by the mysterious and wealthy Paymaster. In order to participate, please look for the advertisements posted around the start time of the event in the public LFG channel and follow the instructions. A maximum of 32 participants will be accepted to judge costume submissions in 2 rounds. Of the 32 participants, 8 will be invited to the second round where participants will be invited to share 1 thing if they so choose (such as an emote, detail about their character, or any one thing). There is no penalty for choosing to not share an additional thing--you can pass with no penalty. Those that do share something will just receive a little extra credit. 1 winner will be selected from round 2 for the grand prize of 100 million influence. There is no costume theme for this event. Judges for the event will be the core leadership of The Cool Kids?, including @Eda, @Zandera, @Torcel, and @Armads68 (the last one only if he's awake and makes it there). Hope you can join us!

Hey thanks! <3

The Cool Kids? Super Group traces its foundation back before The Great Drought to some obscure date lost to time. We value nerdiness and hanging out with other fellow cool nerds, whether or not they’re a member of our group. Now located on the Indomitable server, the few but proud members of The Cool Kids? direct their efforts toward running events for both your and our enjoyment. Recurring Events: Rikti Mothership Raid - Run nightly at 8:00pm Eastern – this event is also typically run twice in a row. - For more information on Mothership Raids, please visit https://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Rikti_Ship_Raid or direct your attention to Eda’s binds. - This event is open to both Heroes and Villains of any level, but those level 35+ who have completed the introductory Vanguard arc will receive the best rewards. - To participate, please bang drums of any size at the fabled twin tanks, or if you're a more sane person, you can watch for the “lfm post” in Broadcast of the Rikti War Zone and in LFG. Chillin’ with Villains - Run the first Monday of every month at 7:30pm Eastern. - The heart of this event is to get more activity onto Redside, which contains a wealth of novel and awesome entertainment, but few teams. - Task Forces and Trials will not currently be scheduled in advance unless otherwise noted—but they may still be run if you’re looking for this content. - We will typically run this even in a League with multiple teams split off running various kind of content. This helps make team trades and coordination much easier. - To join, look for posts in LFG or Broadcast mentioning “Chillin’ with Villains” and “The Cool Kids?” around the start time for the event to meet us on Redside. If you do not receive an invite promptly, please feel free to send a private message to the organizer posting in the LFG or Broadcast channels. Costume Contests - Run monthly with individual rules. - December 2019 contest information: - To participate, please gather in the specified zone and look for advertisements in the LFG channel prior to the start time of the event and follow the instructions posted. One-Time Events: We're holding an ALL MASTERMIND MSR on Saturday, Dec. 28 at 9:00pm Eastern time. You must be on a character that is lvl 35+ and a Mastermind to participate! Discord Server: We have a Discord! To join, please use the link in the spoiler tag below. Non-members of the super group are welcome to join. If you are new to using Discord, this is a program primarily used for gaming (though there are other communities) to hang out via text chat and voice chat. To hear voice chat you will need speakers for your computer and to speak to others, you will need a microphone for your computer. First time users may download the program on the Discord website. Discord has an abundance of information on getting set up for the first time. Membership: The core leadership of The Cool Kids? is a very small group of real-life friends. There is an invitation-only path into the super group, and you must be well known to current members prior to any offer of invitation to join us. Perks of being a member of the super group include access and use of super group navigation portals, use of limited public storage and in-base crafting table/store. You will also gain access to The Cool Kids? Discord as a semi-private space to spend time with your group members. Invitation to the Discord automatically grants a sneak peek into upcoming planned activity and events and extend an open invitation to collaborate on shenanigans and fun. Current members: @Eda @Zandera @Torcel @Armads68 (as of 09-06-2019)

I heard about this group!!! First time I get a beam rifle, I'm sending a tell. :P

Sounds spicy :3
