HRPT

[Olgaris]

And might I add that using multiple GDB accounts to express the same sentiment is a tad... Cheesy?

[Manhattan]

Do you watch disaster movies, Veges?

In it, do the characters get to idle for a while and watch the freeway overpass crumble and fall towards them? No, they step on the gas and pull the car into reverse!

Sdesc is enough for you to "see" what the hell that thing is, but I don't think there is enough time for you to sit and enjoy an mdesc. You should be running the fuck outta there.

Throughout the day, I saw people getting admin-launched missiles thrown at them faster than they could seemingly emote a reaction, forcing them to either spam-walk away or suffer unavoidable death. 30 damage pebbles are one thing, but every few seconds, on the same character over and over? X flies in from the north, x flies in from the north, x flies in from the north... if that had been a player, I would immediately have filed a strongly worded complaint.

I saw people standing in the open by the gates when the echo was something like a thousand burning stones are falling from the sky toward your location.

That or people drawing their half stabbing bone spear when the echo was pretty much.. A wave of lava is heading your way!

Reminded me of that South Park in which they tell the students to "Duck and Cover" in case of a volcanic eruption.

I would LOVE a few pre-combat moments to enjoy the thrill, enact the scene ...

You got 24 hours of that.

Sometimes the best thing to do, is not get hit.

I can't agree here enough. The reality is that Armageddon will kill you, and sometimes, the things that come for you are just that deadly. And if you make a mistake, it's made. That's the thing though - you don't always know you've made a mistake until after you have made it. And that's awesome. And you don't always get to take back your mistake.

Yeh, I whined a bit earlier in this thread. Trust me, I deserve to be able to. But I accepted the way this game works a long time ago. So the '50 str mob' was part of the story.

And it's a pretty cool story.

Chapter 53 is done.

Turning to Chapter 54.

[SykotikGith]

OMG all of that was SO friggin' AMAZING!!!! Everything, from the world sounds to the battle scenes, to the complete and total panic that took over...Great job everyone!

I lived, barely, but I lived!

Allanak was a hot and hoppin' place to be. Just incredible. Can we do it again?

[MarshallDFX]

Wow. Crawled out of the bomb shelter just in time for the nuke to land right in my face.

Thought this might be appropriate to reiterate.

[Ourla]

Moneymoneymoneymoney!

[razorback]

No complaints here being one of the many *beeps* of the night. Though it would've been nice to be awake when I went splat.   Needed to grab one of those Zalanthan five hour energy drinks.

[Vessol]

An HRPT isn't an HRPT without mass sudden death.

[a strange shadow]

That was fun. Thanks, guys. <3

[morrigan]

Thanks for the fun guys! I'd like to request a little more deathiness next time thogh...

[FiveDisgruntledMonkeysWit]

Thanks for the fun guys! I'd like to request a little more deathiness next time thogh...

For realz, though. If we just had a plague of locusts, I would've been able to cash in my Biblical disaster bingo scorecard.

Some music for you guys:

I think you meant: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZtQh5EIgWQ

It WAS pretty mighty being in a room full of people cheering "U-TEP U-TEP U-TEP!" As those echoes were happening, or just people staring upwards in stunned silence.  I'm only sad I didn't have a pick pocket this time around.  I TOTALLY would have emoted "em stands there staring at the sky, mouth agape, ^me hand elbow deep in %noble pouch."  Oh well.  I'll have to reconcile myself with that.  :sigh:

[Fathi]

I was blown away.

It was a real blast.

This HRPT went off like a bomb.

You guys are on fire!

[Potaje]

I found myself reaching for my box of tissues, thank you, you have exhausted me like a brutal and sadistic lover and forever on I am your slave... master may I have another..

but let me rest first.

[perfecto]

Reh reh, bleh bleh, blah blah blah.. yes thank you... (rabble rabble rabble, peas and carrots, peas and carrots)

(smirks) truely a good time, was a little disapointed when it all stopped... I think stuff like this should happen everyday.

Oh and everyone who ended up cremated in Nak, don't worry I'll collect the ash piles and put them into a cask of wine and sell you for megabucks.... You will be enjoyed yet again.

Cheers all! another successful ass kicking!

[Ath]

I think stuff like this should happen everyday.

Buy us the wining lottery ticket.

[netflix]

All I'll say is... wow

and a 16 hour logged in streak is my new record

[Kassindra]

I had fun, hope everyone else died too! 

ftfy!

*eye shift* <3 Seriously though, it was epic. *tips her hat*

[Sephiroto]

I hate that I didn't have a character who had any interest in, or place being on the front lines of the action that went on during the HRPT.  I know I missed all the fun stuff, so I really hope that some well-edited logs will be posted by players or staff at the appropriate time.

Up until the HRPT I knew some crazy shit was going to go down and it was fun to play my character who continued to plan and act as if nothing major was going down.  Well, his whole world has changed.  I'm sure many other PC's are going through the same thing.  It's going to be fun adapting and overcoming new challenges.

I can't wait to see how things develop.  I'm hoping for anarchy....  My, how fun will that be.

[Aaron Goulet]

That rocked.  As for aforementioned flaming rocks... Bring a shield next time, dummies.  Or a half-giant with a really thick skull.

[Aaron Goulet]

Oh, and, uh... Never play through an RPT on your mobile phone.  Once the combat spam starts, it's like riding down a rocky hill in a Radio Flyer.

[Cavaticus]

To sum up my feelings I did a Google image search for a certain word and picked the very first picture that showed up. I'm not sure it does things justice. You guys rock and it was a pleasure murdering so many of you.

[Voular]

Well.
I did an image search of my own:

[FantasyWriter]

This is so totally The Ten Commandments.

I eagerly await the swarms of locust and frogsBalrogs!

I told you so.
