What a morning.

Went to check on the mail and do orders at the store and guess what.....

the package was there!

Instead of being a rat bastich I zoomed home and first e-mailed them not tos end the new stuff and then even called him long distance to be sure I got through.


I am such a sap. I could have gotten two free cases....... :angel:


and as such, I still don't have a Magneto or the colossal Apocalypse. :(

I bet they were in those cases he was going to send.....
 



:/ Tapatalk now allows me to view some bbc code however it doesn't render sblocks (however it shows the contents) and nor does it render custom bbc code elements (doesn't display the contents).

Even though it renders colors now it doesn't render nested color tags.

On a side note... my xoom wifi is mostlikely waiting at best buy now... (assuming they didn't decide to put them on sale early and sold my reserved unit).

This data transmission was sent via cybernetic implant.
 

on an associated comment (7 hives = bee hives= my comment) i have been trying a new brew from Michelob: Honey Lager. it is not bad, not as good as Honey mead or honey whiskey from wild turkey. I prefer my Kirin Ikobad or legbiters ale
 

Don't you hate it when you are trying to come up with a name for a place in a pbp game... but can't post that question on enworld since the two places you would place it are frequented by at least one person from that pbp game?

I Should note that some of my ideas for the appearance of the HQ are based an actual building in LA*. In fact there are several possible contenders since I actually planned on using a different building depending on what the group decides to do.



* I noticed that some of the most interesting looking Super Hero HQs (both in comics and in movies/television) are actually based on real life structures. For this reason, it is likely that if I placed the images of the building here, someone would instantly recognize the buidling from the series it originated in. In the case of one of the potential HQs, that's part of the joke. :D

What about some place in one of the burbs: Santamonica has Grant Elementary school off ocean park blvd that could be made 'abandoned. Likewise at Marina park at the west end of dewey street or even the Macdonnol douglas plat next to the santa monica airport.

You could go 2 hours our to the high desert in the victorvill area and make the HQ at the southern calif. logistics center as that is now a decommisioned airfoce base. tell me in pm and I will give better input of what you may want to use.
 

Basically, part of the second "volumes" plot deals with various groups wanting to recruit the group.

The main hero organization's (USHA) which was forming a west coast team has control over the Getty Center. However, they are not going to try to recruit the characters and will actually serve as rivals.

I was debating if one of the organizations (UNSHTI) was going to have a base on the west coast and if they were going to try to recruit the group. Their base was going to replace the Disney Concert Hall or Crystal Cathedral (but with the building moved out of OC).

One of the organizations that was going to trying to recruit the pcs was going to use "the iconic super hero" location. That organization is headed by a "parody" of one of California's most famous politicians (which is part of the joke and is the reason why the iconic location is used). Of course, I'm pretty sure you can guess who he is, as well as what he is (character archetype wise). :D

The other organization, which I think matches the pc's personality/disposition, was going to be more down to earth base of operations. I have yet to decide the nature of their base of operations, though.

One of the "main" badguys was also going to have a HQ.. but I yet to decide if he was going to use his own base or if he was tied to the...

...main badguy organization, Dark Star Industries, (who was already hinted at being involved in the plot as is connected to one [if not more] of the characters). They have a base of operations in the area (and has their Corproate HQ located in Irvine California).

Rel isn't that where the X-men were based in SF?

Scott - Honey beers are excellent, we have one over here called Waggle Dance which is marvellous. All mead should be made from honey, the best mead is this one.
