Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
Looks like we're seeing the personality bleed from the [Jobs] everyone got. Kyle's [Champion] seems to really want him to be the leader/dominant position and is influencing him to be way more insecure than he was before. Probably. What makes it worse is that Kyle doesn't seem to have...
I love the sentiment of this. Just because the scope of your abilities is less than another's does not mean you suck, it just means the scope of your goals and expectations should be smaller. And if you find yourself growing stronger and more competent, that scope broadens to meet your greater...
Lovely chapter! Paul's enthusiasm for a self-actualized Justice League finally admitting they run the show is delicious.
Be careful Paul, if you keep poking him you're liable to make a hole and he'll start deflating.
Oh no, too late!
"And to my spiritual senses you stand out as a large orange snake--"
"Of course."
"but also as a man furiously trying to repair a machine that keeps trying to blow itself up."
"I... hmm. I suppose that's not inaccurate."
Are we sure this isn't Paul's uncle? There's something dryly English about this response to a couple becoming encased in an orange bubble while an angry bird-person superhero swoops down onto them.
Or maybe having a sports-themed assassin as a brother and living in the DC universe in general...
Wow. I've been following WTR for over a decade, and I don't think I've ever, ever seen Paul with so few fucks to give. I guess getting caught in the middle of a multi-civilizational blood feud culminating with one player trying to blow up a sun really tries one's patience. Hopefully he can wag...
For everyone (like me) who is getting a bad case of brain whip-lash reading the dialogue, be aware that this universe was represented in a string of children's TV series and animated films. Janet isn't exactly acting unusually here, superhero self-awareness is a rare commodity in these parts. In...
It's disconcerting how realistic this is. Corner shops/ bodegas/ convenience stores do tend to be early adopters of 'legal highs' before legislation bans them because of their terrible side effects. Or terrible unadvertised primary effects. They're often right next to the cheap flavored...
Looks like this was the class-setting tutorial, and I can't say enough how pleased I am to read a litRPG where the system stuff is hidden. A story where the reader has to figure out the world and its rules with the characters is just far more intriguing than when everything is laid out plainly...
Pale Lights had a similar situation early in it's first book, with a lot of characters to introduce that weren't destined to be around too long. Chapters 3-5 especially read a lot like the first act of a murder mystery with the number of expendables we learn of. This story seems to be starting...
I agree that it was pretty ambiguous exactly what Lyla was doing there, though I figured that was intentional and details of 'the cistern' would be expanded on later. If there's no intention of doing that, then a small insert might help to clarify things:
Doom? I don't know what you're looking at buddy, all I see is a toddler sulking because Reed won't let him play with the super-cool new spaceship he got for his birthday.
