Comedy is not just one liners. :D
:D Good thoughts. As a wise ass I'm a bit of an apprentice. At comedic self-deprecation I'm an old hand ;)
Also, remember timing and being mindful of what's going on around you. They don't say comedy is the hardest art to master for nuthin.

Hopefully you didn`t get hit by a holiday bug !

Okay, folks...looking over the submissions and knowing there might be some attrition as is common to pbp games, I have chosen six characters. Those are:

Tracer
Torque
Agent Long
Aislynn Finnigan
Rick Flag
Hannibal King

You have until Wednesday to make last changes to your characters. On Wednesday, we'll get started properly. Sorry for the wait.

Thanks for the pick, Neo-Paladin!

As for my build, I've been thinking about dropping Reaction from her Blink. I added it mostly because it was an Alternate Effect, and I could make it Reaction without a change in cost. But thinking about it, Reaction Teleport seems really too powerful. It lets her automatically avoid nearly any attack-except for perception ranged, surprise or subtle attacks, and any attacks with a large enough area-and is the kind of power that I would honestly be annoyed to see on another player's character. What do you think, Neo and other players?

That's a great idea Bill.... a reaction effect in an array is a little odd anyway.

I'll do another once over in the next couple of days, please let me know if you want me to place you at the "end of the list" to give you more time as needed...

Sweetness :D Thanks Neo. Glad to be back in the Merge Universe. I look forward to giving King a spin around the block and seeing what you have up your sleeve with the DEO. 8-)

Starting up again with the review process as promised:

Aislynn Finnigan
:arrow: Still having trouble wrapping my head around how the Comprehend fits into the Air Array...
:arrow: I can envision most of those powers working, but shouldn't she have a complication that if unable to perform katas she cannot invoke her powers?

Agent Long
:arrow: Still reviewing powers (read on), but everything checks out other than that.
:arrow: Thanks for the descriptions of intention for each power.
:arrow: Does not change anything for now, but I listed the Lashing Fan Arms as Strength Based Damage... just in case he increases his Strength down the road...
:arrow: potayto, potahto... I put Bouncy simply as the advantage...Second Chance.
:arrow: I maintain this still looks like a really fun build. I see no problems.

Tracer
:arrow: The Anchored in the Present power, does that also mean she'd know the real timeline if someone mucked with it?
:arrow: I still have the same headache trying to write this power out on paper, but working it out in my head still works...

Hanibbal and Flagg still to come...
