Well, I’ve emailed wheresgeorge04, and asked him to “return” the codes that he’s not using, and am currently crossing my fingers and trusting in basic superheroic values. 😛

Out of curiosity (my old tired computer couldn’t handle the game, in all likehood, and it’s probably for the better…I don’t exactly need spending more time in front of a screen) could you give some details about the game?

Forget about it. I was interested in knowing why this game could be better than any random other one, but I’ve no interest in superheroes-based stuff, anyway.

I sent mine to drgnrdr07. Figured since drgn was last on list no duplicates that way. 🙂

You should try it with a few less people. LIke [here](http://sdmb.culex.us/pics/displayimage.php?album=19&pos=14).  
Okay, to be fair, this was before there were Giant Monsters. Things have changed a bit since then.

Well, in case anyone else still wants a trial code, mine is still available. Claim it in this thread, or track down my email on the [CECIL Supergroup forum](http://sdmb.culex.us/phpBB2/).

**Pleonast** , where ya been? Lina Lightning is on many nights and could use a hand. Right now, I’m only on weekends; when they fix the integrated graphics issue, I _might_ try to load it on my laptop so I could get in some weeknights. Not sure yet how well it will work, as the laptop graphics are…lacking.

Strangelove was kind enough to offer me a code, so I am well taken care of. I have started playing under the name PornMedic.

Thanks

**Pstarr** , expect to log-in one day as _GenericHero10298_. They are pretty strict about names, in order to keep their ESRB rating.

Well, my free time is slim. And City of Villains steals even that. I’ll try to get on again, sometime… I do miss you guys.

And, **Pstarr** , I’m surprised you got past the initial filters with that character name. It’ll be changed the first time a GM notices you. If you want to be a good citizen: report yourself, apologize, plead ignorance, and suggest a new name for yourself.

I’ve given up any hope of hitting CoV before it goes live. I simply do not have, and will not have in the forseeable future, the time. I’m hoping that CoH might one day run on my laptop, but that’s about it.
