This was an absolute blast! I can't thank Ember enough for setting this up. I never laughed so hard while simultaneously getting my ass beat. I'll upload some pics tomorrow. Thanks everyone for playing!

This was fun even the parts (many) when my face was firmly planted on the pavement.....Hey Marq was I there or was it a really funny bad dream? If I wasn't there I need some better sleeping aids...

Sorry I missed the whole thing! 
I had a customer come in about 2 minutes (not EVEN exaggerating, either...), and I had to stay late at work.
Hope you do it again!

Oh we definitely will. I'm hoping to do it at least once a month with both heroes and villains together. Brutes versus blasters is completely unfair but amazingly fun

As promised: PICS!
Note that I'm too damn lazy to resize or otherwise edit these pics. They're 1680x1050 and are better opened in a separate page/tab. They also look pretty good opened in lightbox mode so just click and enjoy.
These first shots are of the final scores for our first few matches. Note that I take an early lead, quickly squashed later when Doc Rock joins the fray.

I've saved the best for last.
We discovered pretty early on that Dock Rock had a natural talent for PVP. By "natural talent" I mean he is a stupid jerk who no one loves. That's really true and I'm not just saying that because he murdered the rest of us over and over again.
The following pic shows what happens when even the most skilled player gets caught between Ember and Miseri, and not in a good way...

It was amazingly fun. I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much.
My favorite moment? Heh.
Marqaha brought in his controller, Doctor Robusto. Before the match, Marq was talking to himself about the length of time his pets would be active during the battle.....and I was listening.
Here's the scene: Doctor Robusto sneaks up on Hypothelma and blinds her. Then he summons his Phantom Army and his Phantasm. Hypothelma remembers said mumbled conversation and says "How long do those pets stay out? One minute?" and super jumps away, yelling "Come and get me, bitch!"
Doctor Robusto has no Super Jump and cries. Hypothelma then ends up dying at the hands of someone else instead.....but outsmarts Robusto!! WIN!

I love how the Blaster who is running in stark terror from a Controller calls her pursuer a crybaby. I think I'd rather be a crybaby than a Blaster too mierda de pollo to face a Controller. 
What you don't get from her side of things is how crazy she seemed when this "strategy" of hers came to mind. When I blinded her she totally freaked out, at first imploring me to change targets and then uttering a long stream of profanity that got increasingly louder until the idea to flee came to her. This was the moment I said in Vent "You guys should be grateful my mic isn't voice activated." She stood up, leaned over the desks separating us, and with fury in her eyes shouted "COME GET ME, BITCH!" The whole room shook with the unnatural force of her rage. I was so shocked that I took my hands off my keyboard to protect my face. That was when I lost sight of her. That was also when I accused Ember, who planned this event, of destroying my relationship.
It actually was a hilarious moment. Up to that point I'm not sure Miseri was truly in the moment. When she stood up, silhouetted in the shadow of the floor-lamp behind her she seemed more like a tornado with an engagement ring swirling within it's killer winds than a timid n00b barely understanding the mechanics of PVP. I thought I saw the bulge of her ep33n tenting her panties.
She was so beautiful in that moment that I fell completely in love with her all over again.

The stars thing is weird. I gave everyone in Adversity 5 stars, mostly just so I could recognize people when I first started playing with Adversity. Now look in the pics above and you'll see that in one shot you have 4, and in another you have 3. I have two more that I didn't upload where you have 4 and 5. In several shots you can see Ember alternates between 5 stars and zero. Same thing with Shaak. I have no idea why.On the other hand, as the PVP night wore on I could totally understand why someone would want to take away any stars they gave you, Doc.

It was really fun
I hope to have my Tnaker fully slotted for the next, and i hope my kids will let me play more too.
It was hard fighting in CoH and RL at the same time.

I'm laughing so hard at the idea of me having an ep33n that I can't even comment further.....
