An Infinite Task Force of 4 takes Archvillain Clamor down!
Tuesday, June 15, 2004
|

On Sunday morning, Jun 13th, a few of The Infinite started a Sister Psyche Task Force.
We all knew that these things have a reputation for being long but we decided to give it a shot.
Unfortunately, Stanz and Captain Amerika were too high for the Task Force so we have to try without any tanks!
Our starting Task Force began with Styng, Nurse Joy, Duneman2, Dethode Prime, Father-Time and Johnny Pinkeye.
Sister Psyche gave us an assignment to investigate the Freakshow and their relationship with the 5th Column.
Our quest took us all over the Paragon City from Steel Canyon to Brickstown.
By the time of the final confrontation our party had decreased to 4.
While on the missions we seemed to have no problem taking on any of the thugs that challenged us,
including the archvillain herself.
I believe our total death count was 2, both by Father-Time.
In fact, our biggest challenge was simply the length of time the Task Force event took.
I hear that a full group of 8 can complete these in 4 hours and I look forward to another shot at it.

The All Powerful and Phenomenal Sir Osis….
Friday, June 11, 2004
|

…appears to not be so Powerful and Phenomenal when he became stuck in the ceiling last night.
Fortunately, The Ultimate Duneman2 was there to laugh and point at bit with Johnny Pinkeye
before Stanz teleported Sir Osis out of his predicament.
By the way, congrats to Stanz and Sir Osis on acquiring Security Level 25 and receiving their new titles.
(I believe Duneman2 has acquired Security Level 25 as well, but has yet to pick out his additional title.)

City of Heroes Comic is in the mail
Monday, June 7, 2004
|

For those of you playing City of Heroes, be sure to stop playing long enough to check your mail for the
June issue of the City of Heroes comic book, "Undead in the Big City - Part 1".
(I got mine on Friday, but didn't check until someone mentioned it on TeamSpeak.)
The comic makes for a nice read and I look forward to the further adventures of Horus, War Witch, and Apex,
although I wish the comic was a few pages longer. The comic also included some basic tips to playing the game which gives me hope
for more advance tips and tactics in future editions.
I'm also curious to see when all the Canadians, Europeans and Australians and Kiwis get their comic in the mail as well, so let me know.

It's Cinco de Mayo! Wooohoo! Another holiday where we get to celebrate beating up the French!
Of course the most famous holiday where we celebrate beating up the French is Bastille Day on July 14,

City of Heroes NDA lifted!
Tuesday, April 13, 2004

In case you don't know, City of Heroes is a MMORPG where you and other players will be able to take on the roles of super powered heroes.
You are able to choose from hundreds of different powers and design your own unique costume, then confront super villains,
aliens, madmen, criminals, including several different evil organizations.
And now, the City of Heroes NDA has finally been lifted and Dylaan has
posted a review of the game
and has been good enough to provide
some great screenshots as well.
Thanks for all the great info, Dylaan

Old School EQ
Wednesday, April 7, 2004
|
Ahh, remember the old EQ days? Before Luclin, before Velious, and even before Kunark! The good old days!
Men were men, women were men too (and most still are). We had "The Vision" and you still had to look
at your spell book when you needed to meditate.
With EQ celebrating its 5th year and Raiders will soon be
on it's 4th, I have started to rummage through old screenshots, looking for those grand old days.
Take a look at some I have and let me know if you have any old Raiders screenshots you wish to share.

Also, I have a question for the oldtimers. Who is the happy couple getting married in the Lake Rathe wedding pic?

A new day, a new site layout
Monday, April 5, 2004
|
OK, so I had a little free time between the Lineage 2 net congestion and waiting for to see if my City of Heroes
beta might show up before April 7 (guess not), so I started re-working the site a bit with my limited knowledge of HTML. It’s still a
work-in-progress, but it loads a lot faster then the earlier version and is a lot more
screensize friendly. More to follow…
