Florian1 Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Anyone from the VG known as The Brotherhood of Doom? We were the #1 prestige group on Infinity for awhile. I used to play as AMID, an Nrg/Elec brute, but I had many other alts. Played with Max, Rag, G, Mura, Jack, any many other in the SG. There were also a couple heroes we would meet up with in RV. I believe one was called Hip Hopper. A something/regen scrapper. Used to duel him and another regen on my thugs/dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Hi all, I'm Johnny B. Quantum (global name, main toon) originally from Infinity, now on Everlasting. I had created maybe three additional toons: Golden Man (tank to play with my gf), Johnny Energia (red-side tank to try out that content), and Johnny Taxibot (a second-generation taxibot, with Belle and TonyV being first-generation). I'm not really one for wanting to manage lots of toons, so I'll probably be sticking with JBQ. I'm kinda re-learning the game, atm. Hope people have been doing well. -Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You participated regularly, though that wasn't one of your usual outfits. I remember you as wearing blue armour and (light blue?) helmet, wielding a sword. In that screenshot, the winged heroine was Gata, who was originally organizing Saturday task forces (though I might have been the organizer by the time you made that screenshot). I met Taxibot Belle on Gata's task forces, and I would sit in when Belle was interviewing candidates to become Taxibots. I'd actually watched Belle conduct the interview process a few times, before I decided to construct my son, Johnny Taxibot, without realizing that I'd inadvertently created a reference to Johnny Cab from the film, Total Recall.

Johnny Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Ah, it's coming back to me, thank you. For those that are not familiar, Taxibot Belle is at bottom-center in that last screenshot. And that looks like another of Gata's alts behind her (the blue and light blue, with checkers). Was that Ms. Cats to Belle's right? Looking at your screenshots, I realize that my JBQ uniform should have large shoulder pads, unlike in my Homecoming screenshot here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lockpick Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I am from Infinity; started on Triumph and moved to Infinity. I was in a SG called Simian Defense Force while they were active, but then had my solo SG. I usually soloed and played TFs (just like now!). My characters were: Simian Stalker - Katana/Regen Scrapper. My first 50! Man, that was a slog... Lockpick - DP/EM Blaster War Shield - MA/SD Scrapper War Justice - StJ/SD Scrapper War Sword - BS/Regen Scrapper (I can't remember if he was Regen or SR) Exorcist - Ill/Rad Controller Rude Dog - MA/SR Scrapper KnightStalker - Katana/SR Scrapper Many of these guys have been recreated on Everlasting. I have way more 50s on HC than I ever did on Live. I might have had one or two maxed builds on Live where here I can max all my builds regularly.

Distinguished Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Played pretty much only Villains on Infinity thanks to limited character slots. I had one hero that ran with another SG that I met through Badge Hunting. Started in late 2004 played until 2011. Was a moderator on Inf Badge Seeker active in many other of the badge channels and tracked on Badgewhore and City Info Terminal. Infinity main Crimson Cadillac. MM Thugs/Traps SG The League of Distinguished Villains Global same as when live @TBK Only Hero on Infinity was Black Hole Storm in an SG with the name Sisters or SIsterhood and I do not remember the rest. Other characters on Infinity: Amper-rage Elec/Elec Brute Plain Yogurt dont remember powerset Crazy Ol' Man Plants/Mind Dom Fargin Ice Hole Ice Corruptor I believe Black Knight of Lore Stalker and many more less played characters or others that I started and wiped. Fired up the old XP machine I originally played on and found the install with a log of character names. Some of them I seriously do not remember making and then saw characters named SGPadder on different servers. I forget what that was about but remember helping fill up SG's for something. Found one old Infinity Screenshot for a Hami wipe. Image is so fuzzy hard to tell what was going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saeletra Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Would that have been "Sisters of the Silvermoon?" With Saph and Hopper? Midnight Thorn, Overlord of Ivory Tower. (Everlasting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell yeah that was it. Haven't heard those names in a long time. I did not play on the Hero side much, but ran with them after different badges etc. Pretty sure we did some random stuff on other servers as well. I'm getting old the memories are there but can't always access them. I seem to remember blowing a Master TF with them by dying on the final boss with my MM. Memory is fickle but thinking it was Hero 1 on Lady Grey. Edited October 12, 2020 by Distinguished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day, it was hard for a lot of SG's to build a decent base so the devs did a 'one-time' grant of free prestige per character in the SG. I forget how much prestige it was. However, since it was done without warning, people screamed bloody murder. So the devs said they would do a second grant of prestige per character and announced it in advance. So, people made filler characters to pad people's SG's up to the maximum size. I made a spreadsheet to track the 'trades' (I'll put 12 characters in your SG on Pinnacle if you put 12 in mine on Infinity). I still have the spreadsheet It looks like I created around 690 characters to fill people's SG's. Originally on Infinity.

More or less. Bases were expensive on Live. I was in a top 10 SG on Pinnacle and we did not have the biggest plot or most elaborate base by any means. Functional but not elaborate.

Rejolt Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I've been on Indom because it was the first server in HC I was able to lock in most of the names I wanted. I'd go to Excelsior but someone took Rejolt to mess with me (and I think they don't play anymore lol). Thanks for D-Sync Enhancements! Just wish things like Resist/End, Heal/End and Damage/Mez had a third stat that made them more viable. Suggestions - add Recharge to Ribosomes, Range to Golgis, and Slows to Peroxisomes. These changes would allow for an endurance cost/range, recharge/endurance, and slow/mez or slow/damage enhancements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
