    Well, probably because I doubt many people here actually go shopping on new comic book day.

    You don't think many people who play a game about superheroes buy comic books?

    Actually, no, I don't think very many do. Probably less who go out and do it right away.

    Okay, well that unshakeable logic aside, I know of at least two people who are interested in doing this who have concerns about it being on new comic day. Is there an actual reason for it being on new comic day as opposed to any other day of the week?

    Because new comicbook day works for the majority of the posters on the Board?

    Of course, I don't think there'd be much of a problem with someone showing up 15-20 minutes late because they had to pick up the latest comic book.

    I only buy TPBs and I tend to order those online. I can't remember the last time I set foot in my local comic shop.

    Anyway Wednesday was chosen because it fits my, er...most, people's schedule. I'm game for pushing the start time back to 9cst but I'm worried the ending time of 11cst would be too late for any ESTers who work earlyi n the morning.

    Yeah, 11PM is already when I'm shuffling off to bed, so midnight would be kind of a problem.

    What Fram and I are concerned about is that if we show up 15-20 minutes late, we'll have trouble getting on a team, but if we leave before 8, there's a chance you'll all keep playing past the set end time and our characters will fall behind in levels.

    We may have enough people for more than one team.

    Also, Accualt, add me as :
    Operative Overlord Inv/EM Tank
    OR
    Star Tripper Rad/Elec Def

    I don't think showing up 20 minutes late will be a problem, we'll split into two teams if we have more than eight people on. If anyone falls behind because they miss a week it shouldn't really matter, we'll obviously have SK spots. If someone falls behind and wants to they can play outside of the "regular hours" until they catch up.

    The night is just about trying to fill up global chat with as many people as we can, something fun to do. Personally I hope people show up early or stay late and play their regular Virtue characters.

    Well, Fram's gonna try just going to work earlier on Wednesdays so he can leave earlier and we'll have enough time to the comic shop before stuff starts.

    We made a couple characters.

    Me: Kid Nice (Peacebringer)
    Fram: Psych-out (Ill/Kin Controller)

    A thought: After each session, someone should drop in here and mention what the average level is, so anyone who wants to join in later can just make a new alt and get them up high enough, or so anyone who missed can get caught up. At least for the first few levels.

    Edit: I created her, skipped the Tutorial, and parked her at Atlas Park. I assume that's what everyone else is doing.

    We're starting at level 5, so you may want to level her up a bit if you haven't done so.

    Would you guys kill me if I didn't take O2 Boost? I'd rather focus exclusively on control.

    I wouldn't kill you, O2 boost is okay but I'm sure there are better powers to take first.

    I think it is interesting we have THREE Kinetic Controllers, though. I don't think our melee need worry about dying. Ghost and I will probably be in debt city, though. Nothing abnormal there. :P

    You bet your ass. I was rockin' the sewers earlier, and I was all like 8) :^:

    Sorry Ghost, as one of our few damage dealers, we'll need you doing as much damage as possible. For a blaster, that means we'll need you skirting the very edge of debt. Of course, that means you'll likely spend as much time face down on the pavement as not, but once we hit 20 and someone gets vengeance, we'll all thank you for your brave contribution to the cause.

    So would this be a bad time to point out that we have only three people with rezzes listed? And two of them are Howling Twilight? And the third might not actually be there (Dys' defender, not there if he plays his tank)?

    Well, if you'd asked me 4 years ago, I would have. I used to always play healers. But playing a White Mage in FFXI brutally removed any desire I had to ever be a primary healer ever again.

    So I guess I'm saying, if you die, blame SquareEnix.
