I'll be right up.  Anyone got a safe-house SOMA?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

yea, I'm vaguely dreading the day I run into one of these guys that takes this game WAY too seriously.

I don't know if those guys exist. I'm sure they do somewhere, but this game has a pretty string social networking component and so far, it's been pretty cool.

[P3nT4gR4m]

Yeehaw, you guys still playing? I joined RES middle of March. Fuck y'all hippy toad bastards, I'll never surrender! Besides, I was raised orthodox sectarian. Consciously, I'm over it but my fkin limbic system would straight up veto any attempt to choose green over blue, under any circumstances. Evar!

Mrs P3nT like smashing things up and making tons of AP, I like Chasing MU. Middle of nowhere, middle of the night, waiting for the green light to chuck the baseline. We're the perfect mom and pops team. I've topped the leaderboard twice in my cell, once in juliet-05, to the west and I've been top 10 RES in juliet-03, over Edinburgh and Dundee.

Some of my ops

13 layers from falkirk baseline, through bannockburn up to the middle of Stirling town center.


Variation on a theme, with batwings


Paper Dart - Glencoe to Drymen (that's Loch Lomond in the bottom left)


Arran an Kintyre - P3nTw1Fe and I on holiday


Persepolis Anomaly - Got a badge for planning and running a team of 10 for this blocking op coast to coast from St Andrews to Oban. UK RES had intel the green scumbags were planning a BAF over Liverpool


Last weekend earned platinum illuminator badge for my part in a 7 man op, set up by the Alloa posse. 14 layers From Aberfeldy to Tyndrum, down to bannockburn. The green fields, covered in blue, at the bottom are like an arrow, pointing at the city of stirling and all it's inhabitants.


Just under 3 million mu left to field for Onyx badge. Gonny have to go bigger!

[Junkenstein]

Whoa.

I was going to ask what you'd been up to but it's kind of obvious now. That bannockburn one is funny as fuck, the comments when this shit gets noticed the next day must be classic.

[P3nT4gR4m]

No shit. Best part was we shot for 02:00CP and thot maybe, if we're doing well, it'll make 07:00. Turns out Pahous. Head of the stirling amphibian scum. Had been on the lash saturday night with his cronies, after the FS event he and CreakyOstritch from our mob had organised in stirling. First one in scotland. Around 50 agents flying around the town, wintrading like mofo's and levelling up noobs. He woke up, so find himself swimming in 14 layers of smurfcum and belted out to b'burn on the bus, only to arrive at the scene of the crime 3 minutes past noon. 3CP at 200 kiloskulls a pop!

Didny hear much from him on comms after that. 

[P3nT4gR4m]

So is everyone from pd aligned with the crap faction?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Old people and conservatives seem to gravitate toward the Resistance, college students and liberals tend to gravitate toward the Enlightenment. I'm a toad, my boyfriend's a Smurf, and we catch no end of hell from our crossfaction group for our interspecies relationship.

Finally broke down and tried this out. It's ridiculously addictive. Even after spending the day broiling under the sun chopping back some horribly neglected weeds, it still enticed me into wandering halfway across town.

Would have probably done more, but my phone died.

Had this song running through my head the whole time, making me grin like a maniac.

I'll bet! Not sure I'd ever be able to 100% trust a smurf who was sleeping with the enemy. Ops game makes you paranoid. "Is this hangout secure?"

It gets a lot less addictive after level 10. Unfortunately.

[P3nT4gR4m]

I reckon I'll get L11 eventually but I doubt I'll be playing long enough to do 12, despite having enough badges. Oculus comes out next year. Planning on dropping off the face of the earth around then

If you already have the badges for level 12, I salute you, sir, because after a year of play I have enough AP to make L12 but I am far from having 6 silvers.

[P3nT4gR4m]

I'm one gold short of L13 but I'll never grind that much AP. Fielding game is all about the skull-count. Only 1250AP for a million plus MU, I'll take no.1 slot on the cell leaderboard every time.

I concentrate on getting bang for my buck with fields so my actual Mind Controller is still silver. Planning on getting black Illuminator before Mind Controller goes gold.

The other bit I really dig is Translator. Glyph game is a wicked way to make sure you always have plenty kit when your daily farm is maybe 15-20 P7's. Because I came to the game late and the translator was already a thing, I'm still on track to earn black in that while my hacker is still bronze. So that's another goal I'm working on.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Kudos to you, sir! That's intensive gameplay. I think that around here people make the higher levels mainly through group play, and I don't have the time.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Also, apparently I lied about not having 6 silvers. It's gold I'm shy on; I need one more to level up to 11. And four more to level up to 12, I think.
