I joined the chat channel, but haven't seen anyone else on.
Has anybody been able to meet up yet?
I also joined the chat channel, but no one was on last night. I created a new character (didn't have any on virtue) named Atomic Bombardment for the server.... he's a rad/rad defender. Anyway, hopefully I'll see some of you online!

Sorry about that, Mr. Shiny. Good luck with that trouble.
You jinxed me, dude. I just got the 9th installment of my monolithic tech support conversation. Basically, they wasted 9 megs of my memory to tell me there was nothing they could do. Bastards.
In other words, you won't be seeing me on COH. Sorry.
- Mr. Shiny out.

What is going on with your Comp, Mr. Shiney? Maybe we can diagnose it from here.
Basically (note: I have little or no technical knowledge), my satellite internet link is causing between 98% and 99% data packet loss. Just for the record, I have no idea what that means.
I tried to contact the satellite people, but apparently they have no e-mail address. If that isn't irony, I don't know what is.

Means somewhere between point A (your computer) and point B (where you're trying to go) is just about hosed. Problem could be a physical connection or a problem with your modem/hookup to the 'net/etc. For satellite, I'm pretty sure it relies upon being set up at a specific angle, so I would see if you could get a tech to come out and look at it.

Either that or a bad satellite. ;p

My ISP is WildBlue Satellite, off of a 'bounce station' in Crown Point, NY (about 30 miles away).
Also, I had tried to get DSL or cable in the area where I live, but since I live outside the city limits*, it would require the town to lay approximately ten miles of cable to reach my house.
I say this figuratively. Ticonderoga, NY: pop. approx. 2,400 people.

~does the happy dance~ And My Main on Pinacle, Diamond Soul, has reached 48 th level! She is over halfway to 49 th! Yay for 8 man teams! They rock! She also has 311 badges at this moment! W00T!!!
One tank, two blasters, 3 fire/rad trollers and a bubble defender! Those AV's get mowed down like it is nothing! Tyrant was easy and I was on Invincible! W00T!!!

I'm getting frustrated. Sometime in the next month, I'm going to try to go somewhere where I can jack my laptop into a DSL line so I can get a piece of the action.
~grins~ Good luck, Mr. Shiny! I know that when I go into withdrawl from CoH, I get a LOT of housework done.

Thanks, my man! I am trying to level my PB on both Pinnacle and Virtue at the same time. ~sighs~ It is rather hard to do, but they are both 7th level right now. When will you be on, Mike?

I have WiFi, but the closest Starbucks(tm) is a 2-hour drive away...
...and I don't own a car.
I'll probably just walk to the local public library.

Good luck, Mr. Shiny. I have been there.
On another note, what laptop do you have? How does CoH run on it? Do you have any suggestions on how to make CoH work on a laptop?
I have a Dell Inspiron 9300 (NVidia GeForce video/CreAtivE sound card).
Previously, CoH has worked fine, but for some reason, I'm losing data packets and can't connect.
CoH should work on any laptop with a decent internet connection. It's just the 'decent internet connection' part that's holding me back.

Grats!
When will you be on, Mike?
I don't know!!! ;_;
Not tonight. Probably not tomorrow night. Maybe some point Saturday, but only if I finish prepping for my game on Sunday. And uh... not on Sunday, either.

So who was on over the weekend for Double XP? I was, I was! :D
I see by skimming through that lots of people have posted their global handles. I'll have to read through here when I get home and add you all, if you don't mind. :)
Yeah, Double XP weekend spurred me back into playing, although I've been starting up lots of new characters instead of focusing on my main. I'm kinda weird like that. ;D

So I kinda lost interest in my TA/A defender and stopped playing very often as a result. Last Monday, though, I started up an electricity blaster and instantly had fun. I just got her up to 10th level last night, and would have hit 11th except that one of the guys on our team had to un-exemplar so we could finish the mission and I didn't get any more XP after that.
But anyway, yeah, I've been on (Virtue, CoH) pretty regularly this whole week, so if you log on add me to your global friends list or sign on to the Paizo channel and let's chat! :)
