New efforts!

KISS....every time I hear one of their songs I piss myself and forget who I am for a 1/2 hour or so  :o  Average musicians....great businessmen and brand.  I would rather listen to ABBA on a loop track  :roll:  Oh yea, I remember Jimmy Carter and my father yelling at the TV in a rage on election night (I was 9 and Dad liked Ford)...no wonder I hate politics!!!

Oooo...I would be fine with ABBA too.   Takea chance, takea chance, takea chance....      I've heard there are two kinds of people...those who love ABBA and those who won't admit they love ABBA.   lol... 8)

Note:  Almost all famous rock bands in history were average musicians    ;)

Just got done watching Cosmos.  Great episode.  It focused on the ever expanding universe, and the vastness of the ever present fact of ever increasing distances between galaxies and whatnot.

[NeoFight]

Yups, methinks Carl would be proud.  GJ Ann, Seth and Neil !

[HEATSTROKE]

Ok no new news.. ok.. continue on..

Ugh, I'm sick of hearing people complain about Pluto being (accurately) reclassified as a dwarf planet. How is ANYONE's life any different because of this? Does it change ANYTHING? Did someone lose money on this? Is someone's lively gone now? Did anyone die, lose their job, become sick? Is anyone no longer able to function in society because Pluto lost its "Planet" designation?

No one got upset when skunks got ousted from the Mustelidae genus into their own after their genome was sequenced. Where was the outcry? I don't remember seeing any (stupid) memes  saying "Don't worry Skunk, I still think you're a Weasel!"

And worst of all, I've been watching this thread since it was only one page and this STUPID rant is my first contribution to it!

Thanks for your effort Ironwolf!!!!

My so very expensive 1973 World Book Encyclopedias are no longer valid! So yeah, I did loose money in their value!  ;D

And yes, Thank you Ironwolf! ! !


Are we there yet?  ;D


(and yes I am very aware that they were seriously outdated in almost every respect, sooo much has changed since then, but I couldn't resist! Restore Pluto's Planitarian Rights!)

There there, don't worry we got plenty of funny topics to move on to.  Read a dwarf fortress lets play a while back while I was waiting for an update.  Heres a link to a funny narration of it;

How about those self-driving cars? :-*

[LaughingAlex]

Not a bad idea, but i'd test them very carefully, and since I'm guessing they are conntected to a system, well I'd really rather people make sure they are very, very well protected.  I'd even say when it comes to info security and such an automated car system that even one hack could cause a serious accident that the riders wouldn't be able to react to unlike say a defensive driver.

Wait, WHAT!!?  When the hell did this happen!!?  No one told me about this!

You'd have made a stink about it if you'd known ?

Sailor Pluto lost her powers and now the gates of time are defenseless.

Are you happy now?

[Mistress Urd]

I'm waiting for someone at NASA to suggest a manned mission to Eris.

Ok, enough derailment, thanks Ironwolf for keeping the drive to CoH's return alive.

One of the things I'm looking forward to if/when we get our game back is running the ITF again. I know many loved if for speed runs and shards and all,  but I just loved the missions and the concepts. Such great fun. I was a "kill most" fan.

There were other TF's I never got to do so I'm putting them on my list. I'd like to do the Shadowshard TF's. I never did any Redside TF's as I mainly played blue.

I also never got to do the all the Incarnate stuff. Keyes reactor was the last one I ran so anything after that I didn't do. There seem to be a lot of "if you don't have this unlocked or that particular power, don't bother." I honestly didn't want to ruin someone else's run because I had never done it. I felt the same way about Master TFs.

So any that you fine people think I should put on my Must Do list?

I plan to do everything myself, but I plan to do a lot of leading the trials and whatnot.  Thing is I plan not only to do a lets play of city of heroes but a walkthrough/guide that is designed to help people make smart decisions.  Incarnate trials likewise, the only trials that have the "if you don't have this unlocked or don't bother" problem tends to be the later trials, particularly the Minds of Mayhem(somewhat) and the Diabolique Dilema.  Those are more due to level shifting of the badguys, even then another one with a shift, the one fighting maelstrom(cannot remember it's name atm) it isn't as important to have a full shift.  But the others buffs and debuffs can make the difference as they can with anything.  Heavy force multiplier teams > most everything else in terms of effectiveness.

My walkthrough/guide will be made to demonstrate that.  Note that isn't to say that the classes without buffs/debuffs/crowd control are useless, I plan to demonstrate the use of those classes as well.

Another Must do: Form and lead my own sg.

Edit: Suddenly my memory pulls up the name of the trial I couldn't remember, it's the TPN Campus.  I thought about it while remembering the issue with the underground trial(the real one that makes it easy to ruin the whole thing intentionally).

You really don't.

[LaughingAlex]

You really don't.

I wouldn't mind doing them, although I am aware they are ridiculously long.  Some changes had been made to CoX in it's later days to cut down the travel time significantly.  I actually remember the geysers and how fast you can cross the map with them and a fast flight+super speed combo or even flight + afterburner combo.

[MWRuger]

You really don't.

Hey, I didn't say I want to do them a lot, but at least once wouldn't hurt. :)

Hmmm, a couple of them might actually hurt or at least leave a mark...  ;D
