I'm in a place where I can't get audio. Any chance of a synopsis here?
Who's doing it? (I'm on a bus; twitch doesn't work well enough on my phone)
Other than Hitstreak not answering anything of significance, there's not much going on. If you wanted to say goodbye you could. But the whole thing was just depressing the hell out of me. I left early. :'(
Hit Streak is the man in front of the camera. Nothing Earth-shattering is coming up in the text chat.
Hit streak is running is, so far anytime NCSoft or the current state of CoH is mentioned, its a lot of 'I don't know, I can't say'
It looks like they are under NDAs..
I care less about answers than I do that it's happening at all!
Hit Streak sent a "Good morning, Virtue" message this morning too.
They did invite everyone to their dinner tonight, at http://www.bucadibeppo.com/restaurants/ca/palo-alto/ around 6pm EST (California time)
Thanks for the heads-up, I managed to get in around 15 minutes before it ended and managed to say hi. :)
Noticed that. Too bad we can't get that wall cut out for you ;)
Ooo. Buca di Beppo? That's good stuff. 'Course, my point of reference is the one in Livonia, MI, but still...
We never have anything fun here in the Midwest :P
At least that's drivable. It's even worse on the East Coast and EVERYTHING is ALWAYS California. >_<

Need some more Midwest loving up in here, man. :-/
Livonia, Michigan did you say? I work on Middlebelt Rd and live in Jackson, MI!
*pats Minnesota* It's okay, it's okay... *walks away to shed a tear*
I live in Ohio, but I've eaten at Buca up there when I've been in Detroit for the Great Lakes Invitational hockey tournament. (Haven't missed a GLI since I started going in 1998.)

...MN? Now I'm curious...
where in MN? <.< >.>
At least if I lived in the central states I could see maybe having a chance at a roadtrip. But I hate always being told I have no choice but to spend $1000 on an airline ticket to get to everything.
Well, firs of all, I thought Hit Streak was totally awesome for doing that today and we had some good back and forth with him.
Also, I asked two questions that I thought were fairly common questions among the community and he had solid answers for them (as solid as his answers can be, considering NCSoft could switch it up and surprise him).
Paraphrasing (as accurately as I can remember):
Me: Do you think the forums will go down before the planned shutdowm of the game, November 30th?
HitStreak: No, I don't think they'll be going down beforehand. I believe that the forums will remain up as long as the game is up.
Me: Are there any game codes or any way to grant people who are stuck being Non VIP for the rest of the sunsetting?
HitStreak: I would love to, but, unfortunately, that's completely out of our hands and there's nothing we can do.
My apologies if my memory misquoted there at all, but those were the overall answers of those two questions.
He also said he felt badly about the whole Dark Matter Aura codes and the Tuesday Tweets, as it was all his idea... but I also let him know that the way he handled things after that was frickin' awesome (for those that don't remember, he sat and manually sent all those damn codes when they changed the rules up and made it far easier for everyone to get the codes).
It was really great to catch that today. And superbly awesome of him to hop on and continue it for as long as he did too!

Try being in Oklahoma.
Why do you think 99% of my contact with other creatures that aren't my housemates or my parrots comes from CoH?
I don't even want to think about how lonely it's going to be....

I'm a stay at home mom, other than my husband, COH has been the only other meaningful contact of people over the age of *insert current age of my oldest here* for literally years. When my son was an infant and I was pretty much chair bound with him, a boppy pillow and CoH was what kept me sane.
I know how you feel. Once this game is gone, the silence in my life will be deafening as well. :(

Bad come to worse, I could introduce you to my SGmates. We're all creative types, and we plan on staying in touch. =^.^=

I always thought it was the drag-racing elves.
You have NO idea how TERRIBLY disillusioned I am now!

You can
always look me up, VV. :)
Buca di Beppo? Hmm looked them up on the net... 2 of em within 20 miles of Columbus, Ohio.
Gonna have to take the family there this weekend! (My twin daughters hit 25 Today!)
Must be good stuff, from the recommendations I've been reading about online.

Not enough people, or the people are too weird? My wife and I are pretty much circumstantial recluses either way, because the 'status quo' is just too alien for us. And on top of that, Celiac disease for both of us, which is in pretty much every food produced by public places, and most of the manufactured stuff. And since 99% of all human gatherings manage to center themselves around food, we automatically seem like standoffish phobics when we have to refuse everything. And taking a daytime road trip takes just as much preparation as a camping trip in the middle of nowhere, in that... if we don't bring it with us, very good chance we won't find anything to eat. But CoH? I can eat my weight in Never-food at Pocket D and not have to worry about a thing.

OK, seriously! Stop with the cool ideas! I'm trying to prep for NaNo! :)
