I'll kill you. No, seriously, I'll kill you. Don't drink my coffee. You know what, nevermind. That coffee is too good. Walk on, police officer. Today is your lucky day."

Thanks, guys smile I'm tempted to say "AAAAAAGAIN" because this makes 8 50s (I think), but this one is a bit more special, because it's my first 50 hero on Pinnacle. It's always been a problem for me, because oftentimes people will go "Hey, Sam, you have like eleventy 50s. Come join us for a Dr. Khan TF!" and then I have to backtrack over my own words and go "Well, you see... It's kind of like... That is to say... I sort of kind of don't actually have a 50 HERE. I have a few on Victory, but not here. Sorry." This should make things easier. When I get the time, I should get Alexander, my Burte, those last two levels to 50 so I have a 50 villain on Pinnacle, too. With Going Rogue, though, I'm not sure I'll have the opportunity to do that soon. We'll see how that goes.

I'm also sorry that I don't have much more to say here, guys. Don't think I can work up to 1000 words, and even if I tried, I'd probably tread all over my NDA. Sorry. I'll probably have more to say at some point, but for now, just thanks smile

I honestly don't know, but not TOO much. I think around 20 per server over two servers, but a couple of those are placeholders and a couple lack meaningful bios, so that drags down the number somewhat.

I did run out of "easy 50s," though. I used to have a whole bunch of characters stuck at, like, 46 or 47 that I could just tip the little extra way and suddenly go from, like, 6 50s to 8 to I'm looking at 9 now, with Alexander at 49 at the moment. After that, though, the rest are sub-40s, so it'll take a while before I celebrate any more. Not sure what I'll do when the Incarnate system rolls out. Chances are I'll leave post-50 progress for later until all the bugs are ironed out and enough people complain to get the tighter restrictions eased up smile

You didn't really miss much. I got it solo and on another server smile I really only made a big deal about my first 50 back in 2005, and possibly about my first 50 villain somewhere in 2006, but what those two guys taught me was that the game was too much fun to play to be rushing forward to the end. I still get that warm, fuzzy feeling of "He is now DONE!" every time I reach it, but I'm in no hurry.

Except for this one. I want to get Alexander to 50 and get him out of the way. Beyond that, if my patience holds, I'll be back to my vampire. If not, I'll be making a Brute with the intention of turning her into a hero in a couple of months. We'll see how that goes.

Speaking of which. Alexander just hit 50. I'm still debating it with myself whether I want to finish his Time After Time arc before I move on.

Eh, you're not missing much smile

I'm not sure what to do now, though. Should I go back to the slime girl, the panda girl, the vampire guy or... Crap, what else did I have? I'll have to trawl through my lists again smile
