glacier blue got it first!!

Wow... @Glacier Peak, congrats! You definitely have the 'fast' part down.
 

Stay tuned for more, everyone!

Cool little event to have running. Sadly, I will be unable to participate as taking a screenshot crashes my game. It was a problem I had on Live that has apparently followed over to current day. Thankfully I'm not a screenie person so I've never bothered to report it here.

 

Until now, I guess.   🙂

Nicely done, @Glacier Peak!  I was on the forums, stepped away for one minute, and it was announced and won.

 

At this speed I guess you just have to be online, standing next to your pick, when it happens to be drawn.

If you're using Windows 10, you can try using the 'Screen Snipping App'. It's defaulted in the Windows Accessories folder in the program lists.

Shame they can't be randomized to prevent camping.

 

Takes the spirit out of it. >.>

I had an SG mate who was having that SAME exact problem the other night. I have not spoken with him since so I am not sure if he has found a way to fix it yet.

People are that desperate for a Gold Name. I love that the Devs are trying to do an event, but sadly it is the players who ruin the fun of it. That's why I am just doing my own thing. I am not willing to camp in order to get a win...but others are, which puts me and others like me at a huge disadvantage. It's fun to watch though on these forums. So I am getting some enjoyment out of it.

Heh, that would be nifty. Unfortunately my team and I had to manually change every NPC on every shard, so not quite feasible.

Dare to dream, though. 😄

Its also not always camping as much as right place / right time. You never really know who I'll announce next!

Thank you, @FrauleinMental I had just finished mapping out all the new costumed NPCs and their locations in-game (like @GM Arcanum recommended in the original post) and was crafting for Fabricator in my SG base. One click on my villain base portal got me in front of Kalinda.  

I was actually confused for a few seconds because there are two locations for Ms. Liberty (as subsequent posts show). 😅   

This is a super fun event! I hope people don’t get discouraged by the folks in this thread thinking it requires camping, it does not require camping. Just hit follow on the thread and go haunt! You could feasibly improve your odds if you map out all the NPCs as previously mentioned, are either Rogue or Vigilante alignment (has access to all zones), open up the LFG tab for a quick TP to the NPC, or just sit in your SG base if it has portals to all zones – I mean there is a lot a player can do if they really want the fun prize!

I have a pretty fast SSD and I don't think I could have done that in less than ten seconds.

 

Absolute madlad.

Solid State Drives (SSD) and Non-Volatile Memory Express Drives definitely improve load times across games, especially in CoH/CoV. Absolutely recommend upgrading from a hard disk drive to an SSD if an individual is looking to make noticeable improvements in their gaming experience.

[ScarySai]

but I just said I had one!

 

It's no rocket 4, but damn. Must be some forum delay because your post came in mere seconds.

Here is my entry for Ms. Liberty

Next Challenge:

A character dressed as Mynx, /e Teabag

 

Remember, only one prize per challenge for the fastest screenshot - you've got to be fast!

 

Happy Haunting!
