You know Horacio, that's not a bad idea. I think I may do that.

Re: A few brief editorial corrections for you, Hacker!

Whoah! I didn't know you were reading my reports, Janey. I'll... errr... have to watch my mouth. >>> insert BlushingEmoticon here <<< I hope you understand - I take the best of the reports that you guys write up, and put them together in sort of a narrative mash. So sometimes they may be wrong, and please point out when I am! If I ever need to access these files because I lost my memory (ugh), I'd like them to be perfect. I've made some of my observations on your observations, below.

Dear Hacker,

As a journalist, I am very dedicated to checking the facts of articles I submit and while I realize that you are new to this sort of “reporter” type writing, I noticed a few errors of omission in the way you covered the story and would like you to indulge my desire to play “editor” and make a few corrections. Always remember, as a news writer, facts are your first responsibility, story your second! You can check out my articles from Fate Magazine, including "A Tale of Ghosts and Egos" (Issue 47), "The Grenninger Poltergeist Incident" (Issue 46), "Miss Cleo Revealed" (Issue 46), "In Search of Bigfoot" (Issue 45), and "Everyday Possession" (Issue 45) (to name a few recent ones) to get additional ideas on how to write hard news stories on more esoteric subjects.

Wait a second. Wait a gosh darn second. Miss Cleo isn't even JAMAICAN?!? >>> insert SighingSound.wav here <<< Is there nothing that isn't sacred...?

1) The entire Ego/Ghost mission was handled the way it was because of your assurance that no there was absolutely no data indicating that he could actually read minds, but rather appeared to have only the power to control minds. *SNIP*

Right, sorry. I did mention that my data indicated he could not read minds. Just goes to show I'm only human, right? Eh? Get it?

2) In terms of the Skull encounter, my decision to use my cape in an attempt to blindfold him was not due solely to the fact that I suspected he was testing us. There were essentially two possible reasons for him to attack us: Either he was testing us or he was an insane, evil, giant skeleton monster with possible connections to Umbra.

Hey, I'm not Colonel Parks, so I have nothing to say about your tactics. That's his department. BUT.... I know Edge is pretty miffed about Skull. Are you? You keep calling him a possible 'insane, evil, giant skeleton monster'. Based upon the meager 612 megs worth of psychological theory that I have access to, it means you are 'potentially bitter and/or angry'. I don't know about you, but Skull has done a heck of a lot for people. So one little 'test' and now he's a bad guy? <sniff> He's my favorite metahuman too...

[Poltergeist]

Hacker,

You misinterpret my meaning. The reason I repetitively referred to Skull as a possibly stupid, insane, evil, giant skeleton monster was not because I was upset with *him*. Rather, it was trying to emphasize the point that if Skull was in fact *not* testing us when he attacked and eventually threatened to kill me that the only reasonable course of action was to continue fighting as his word not to hurt me if we stopped was distinctly unreliable.

PS-We *will* find a way to get your memory back and help you remember who you are. Don't give up hope on that.

Do it! Do it all, of you! The preorders are important, they need it to convince distributors that this time it goes for good!

Fifth Edition

Ok, next big question. For those of us who DO want to pre-order it, where can we do so? Anyone seen a site listing it?

I've pre-ordered it form Warehouse 23, at Steve Jackson Games site (the makers of GURPS). The link is:

Here Steve Jackson Games
Here Warehouse 23
And here the HEro System 5th edition, ready for preorder

But there are some others, look at Hero Games site in the section retailers...

 

[Breakstone]

Hullo!

I just finished catching up. This is a great read!

I love superheroes!

I'll probably purchase the 5th edition when it comes out.

Consider me a reader!

 

[NightOwl]

Woohoo! A Champions Story Hour!

Great work thus far...

Since finding a Champions (or any SuperHero) game is nigh impossible, this is the next best thing...

Consider me a subscriber to the Vendetta Comic!

Wait Until Issue #3!
