Aryn Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Let me be first to say I am very bad at taking pictures: that is to say, toggling stuff off like names but stuff I took from where I was like this just because of the angle being hilarious, for example! And naturally, a Mapserver! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacheyon Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Here are a few pictures from Echo Plaza 2 zone. Very Cool seeing War Witch, Black Scorpion and Dark Watcher along with other Dev's and GM's. But of course the best thing is how many of the community came out for this event. So many great costumes and concepts. And lots of jokes and puns. All celebrating 20 years of this amazing game. And then the Monster Mash happened! Giant Spiders, Robots, and even giant versions of everyone in the zone! It was a blast! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed all of the events but it's so nice to see the Devs from back when come back into the game. It really hits you right in the feels. Hopefully they can become part of the HC Team? 🙂 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momentarygrace Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) Thanks Tacheyon for the pics! I really love this costume: I didn't see this character at the time, I was down the line somewhere. It was very fun, I can't imagine the work behind the scenes juggling what, 350 or so (I heard) contestants in at least 2 (or more?) instances of Echo Park! So many monsters mashing, I think Tyrant was the worst, multiple Tyrants were wiping the leagues over and over! I was particularly happy to see my fav GM, the Mapserver (and I got actual mapserved once! thought it was over but reconnected!). Also love the GMs based on us, the contestants - so fun to see (and fight) yourself as a giant! Great party. Awesome gawking with excitement and sentimentality by turns at our HC devs mingling with the original devs! Thanks HC and guests!

pjmoyer Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Darn it, I completely missed this event, even though I hoped to participate, due to time zone confusion and my being in an airport at the time (though I was able to connect with my laptop from there with my cellular hotspot!). At least there’s the Reunion iteration of the contest for next week. Anyway, glad you all had fun! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogooder Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) Dear Devs- I believe this concerns an anniversary prize the, interruptive, bat. Once hit by this bat can a person become immune to it's effects or repel the bat wielder or can the power go on a cool down? Last night I saw someone bully another by constantly hitting them with the bat. There was a group of us (3+) dancing waiting for a MSR to begin when a person walked around and hit each of us interrupting our dancing. I started again as did another toon I could see (it was getting crowded in Vanguard). The person with the bat hit a second toon again. They started dancing again and they were hit again by the same person with the bat. The dancer stopped and the batter continued to hit the them. The dancer started typing that the person was a jerk and that they were being singled out. The batter continued to hit them. After a minute of some the better walked over to the stage with Lady Grey and waited. When that same person started dancing the batter came down off the stage and hit the dancer. Soon the batter would just come down hit the person now not doing anything at all, run back onto the raised stage and then run back down and hit the person when the effects wore off. Eventually the MSR league and the dancer, myself included, were moved to an instance to play the MSR. The batter was not part of the league and was gone when the MSR ended. It was pretty maddening to watch this and not be able to do anything. Edited May 21 by Dogooder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be pushed off a ledge, shouldn't be hittable by a bat. Those times you saw no footprints, I had Fly toggled on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display Name Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 As far as I can tell there are a total of five new insp drops tied to the Anniversary event. As far as I can remember, they are obtained *only* by defeating enemies spawning from opening Time Capsules. The people in the Help channel explained to me how to find out what a particular insp does. Right-click it and select "Info." Then click the "Detailed Info" tab and what it does will be shown at the bottom. Special note: if there is no explanation for what it does, then the insp provides Debt Protection. Special note 2: if you put them in an insp storage container in your base, it will "sort" them. They work as follows... The order of this list is how they're sorted in my storage container. 1) +Def (all) 2) Debt Protection 3) Heal on self 4) +End on self 5) +?% Dam (all) on self 1 2 @Super Whatsit Superbase passcode (Excelsior) is "passcode-6475" It's all a Nemesis plot. But not everything is a Nemesis plot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of the 4 finalists and I haven't gotten an update on either my title or the prismatic aethers Give it a few days, possibly next week since they've still got to do the Reunion event. If it's like previous contests you'll have the prize in your Character Items box when it's given, and the badge should be granted if you don't already have it. I think the title is being handled differently this time since they didn't host on multiple shards for this one. 2 Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.
