It's still not likely to happen.

Any 10 star talisman will fall into one of three categories: 1) So powerful as to be game-breaking, 2) So under powered as to not be worth the cost, or 3) So overly balanced that the negatives make it unusable.

Furthermore, there's 4 donation talismans in the store currently.

Getting a 10-star talisman seemed like it would have to be ridiculously powerful to be worth the donation. That's why we opted for the four 5-star talismans, which will cycle out yearly.

Equipping this gives you the same effect as wearing the high-jump boots.


"Whats a hero without a grappling gun? Grounded, thats what. And don't even think of going to that concert with that certain attractive friend of yours."
Except that it's a Stranging Device, and not a Strangling Device. No rope involved. Better recipe would be a Coil of Rope + Big Left Hook.

Well.. can we magically add an L in the middle of the word?

There are many things you can do with magic, but that's not one of them.

You get this badge when you acquire all other badges in the game...But it disappears if theres a new one added so you'll need to get it again and again.



'Bleep bloop' comes from the sound you get from the X-Box360 when you unlock an achievement.

You do realize that only the first couple of hundred people would ever have a chance at this badge, right?

What are you doing that you're logged in for an hour and not paying attention, that you would reply 60 minutes late to a message?

This has been asked for, but adding the timestamp clutters up chat badly, and frankly, I just don't think this is a serious issue. If nothing else, a /who will tell you if the person is in chat or not, and that's nearly as good as figuring out a timestamp.

Oh, I remember that. It was band-centric, though, not really music-centric, if that makes sense to you. ACDC != music theory and/or composition. I did enjoy that event however. Honestly, I like all TH's special events. xD I'm looking forward to snow days later this year and holiday goodies.
so you want we to make songs for the game?

Mis-guided Missile

This Missile isn't really bad per se, although being designed to destroy seems to have given it a certain inevitable destiny. Maybe if it had had some positive role-model during it's formative years it wouldn't be so-- wait, did it just change course? Maybe it's time for some evasive maneuvers...

The Missile overshoots your position, but you're caught up in the jet of flame propelling it. Ouch!
The Missile zooms by, narrowly missing you... until your crotch collides with one of it's stabilizer fins. Argh! Maybe you'll luck out and a video of it won't show up on the YouTubes.

The Missile cruises toward you, but your SALTy talk makes it veer off course at the last minute.

Hehe, not what I meant. But it'd be neat to see TH-inspired music, or music that seems fitting somehow. We have a bunch of musically-inclined players who come into chat, so, who knows? It might happen at some point!

Ok... but don't tell anyone about my brodway script "Twilight Heroes: The Musical Comedy"

I found FL to be very un-user-friendly.

Even so, that's not a good reason as to why Garage Band is better. Clearly there are more things to judge it by than its cover?

EDIT: By the way, I wasn't actually laughing at your skill. Quite the contrary. I'm laughing at the fact that conceptually, Garage Band and FL are identical. So with a bit of learning, you can be just as good in FL as in Garage Band.

I don't think "Shark's Tooth Necklace" would qualify as "pants"

I like where you're going with this, actually. I never really felt that my character was actually mine in KoL. A little more personalization would be nice.

That list is a nice start on how to make variations.
