Almost a Hero of the City

I've been playing this online game, City of Heroes, for the last year and more and I'm now within spitting distance of the top level. I fell in with a wild and crazy pickup team last night. They didn't slow down for anything, not force field bubbles, not gravity holds, nothing. It was Leroy Jenkins time. :) (Thanks Thomas, I don't know what I would do without that cultural reference :) ) But in the end, even with one death, I made 3 bars of experience and now have only 4 to go until I hit 50. It was really fun.

I talked to another guy I had teamed with in the past who is now 50 regarding advice on the Kledian AT's with the result that when I hit 50, I'll try a Warshade first. I'm looking forward to giving that a try.

Hello, geek-police? Ya, I have a name to report...

Hey dude, like playing dress-up on the weekends is not geeky? :) We're all geeks, deal with it. The individual act of geek-dom may be different but the label is the same. :)

LOL.....so what you are saying is City of Heroes is geek-ness above and beyond all other geek-doms? :)

Nah... typing an activity and doing the activity are totally different levels of geekdom. Could you be a "virtual scribe" online? Somehow, I don't think it would be the same. :-)

Wait.....are getting back to that research laurel thing? :)

If you can get me my superpowers in real life, I promise to do the activity for real. :)

Oh palease... if I could choose a superpower, being "super scribe" would not be the one.
