My xp growth hit 5% this week AND my mission success rate went up 1%.

Good week.

Uh... a few days ago. I've actually been tracking some of that on my own. Ragebot's over 5%, I'm over 4%, RoS and NV are around 3%.

I haven't gotten my win % up, but it hasn't gone down either, and I got another level 5 to generate XP for you guys. I could get a third if I reconfigure Wildstorm I think...

What the friggin hell! >.< I changed Accel's name to Torque, so I could change Exia's name to Accel... and in the time it took to do it, someone took the god damn name! And it's not even a new god damn character! It's a name I had on my team before the reset! Rar! [/rant]

[reasoning]... I know, I changed the name, I had to expect that someone else might take it... It's still annoying as hell though. ~_~

Murphy's law: Whatever can go wrong, WILL go wrong. In your place, I'd be pretty annoyed myself.

You know it takes an hour to update right? That means that for an hour your character is technically still called it's old name, so the old name is still taken as far as the Database is concerned. The chances of someone just accidentally trying to use the same name the second you rename the character are too small to be likely.

I know. I checked their back stuff and they had the name for a while too. *shrug* It sucks because it's one of the few pre-reset names I had that I really liked, and I had it for a while too, but it is what it is.

I was annoyed. Posted my rant to get it out. Done with it. *L*

Good I'm not the only one that's wondering.

Oh yeah... I was gonna make a joke about that...

About Editor's wondering?

About the hearts on the thread. Cause, even though you split it off, I have the first post... it was a lot funnier in my head earlier.

Everything's funnier in your head.

'cause you're weird like that ...

true enough. You'd think I'd be happy more often though.

*edit*

I stand corrected about my earlier statement concerning the 5% growth. I will hit 5% for the week. I'm at 720k for the week, and I have until 7:30 tomorrow to gain 36k to make my target.

I haven't bothered keeping targets or anything like that. At least not in such great detail. ^^; Just trying to win as many missions as possible for the glorious cause.

Failing pretty miserably of course, but it's really the thought that counts.

At any rate, a little miffed. Was trying to get Scattorshot Mk II to hit 14,000 xp tonight, and he's earned a grand total of 0 xp on his last two missions in a row. I guess there's always tomorrow...

I've been there before, and honestly it happens that way sometimes, this week i've had Plague Bringer in 4 missions in a row where he had zero damage (yes, there were opponents in each. While others in my squad couldn't gain xp or find a winning mission to save their sparks.

Just remember it is going to happen, and don't let it get to you.

Oh, I'm not terribly worried about it. ^^ Some days you get the bear, some days the bear gets you. In this case, the bears just run around with incendiaries, missiles, lasers, null rays, and every other manner of advanced weaponry conceivable. It sucks, at moments, being the park ranger. xD

It really sucks when you're higher in level and still get 0 missions. Had a couple of zeroes the other day sammiched between a few missions of no cons.

I've suddenly been doing very well too. Weird huh?

Great, GREAT news everyone: since this weekend I have taken over Galvatron Supreme's spot as the #3 player in HMW!

And that while I have been playing it slow the last week: a couple days off work and at home, which means less HMW playable hours, if you can believe it. So, once more, an 8 day 1,000,000 xp
I'm really hoping to get a steady million xp per week in the next couple of weeks; with NV's level 7's it should be possible.

There's a lot of autobots that are in need of leveling up.

Have you looked at the summary by level on the high scores page? Only one area do the Cons out number the bots, but the bots are always the ones with the most XP per level, and yet the Cons are winning the missions... It's rather embarressing...

I'm just glad that Alldarker was finally able to score over 10,000 xp in a single mission due to Hun-grrr's level 7
I'm trying to get the rest of my team up to level 5 (8 out of 12 so far) but as you well know, I only level up useful stats!

P.S. please do something about Octopunch. This was HIGHLY annoying...

So... you're going to stop leveling up at maybe 7?

Touché... We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

I haven't yet invested anything in Rank for any of my team, while Rank is most definitely a useful stat. So I'd say most of my team will be up to at least level 8 before I've maxed out Rank on all of them...
