Thank you

It's hard to think of what to say. I'm glad I didn't try reading this thread in the office; I'd have had to keep telling people passing by my cubicle that I had something in my eye. I was asked in the game this evening if I expected all th...

Detailed story & event plans for MXO chapters 5.2-12.1

I didn't do events with the Monolith LET. I was just doing missions at the time, and the LET was kind of doing their own thing. I didn't start doing events until September 2005 (Death of the Destroyer), when we'd come over to SOE and the L...

The computer hosting Pace and Ookami decided to be pretty unstable during this battle, so thanks to the players there for being patient while the event characters took repeated powders. There were quite a few Mervs around the rooftop at th...
