#2141397 The Guild Wars 2 Endgame... Let's be realistic here..
Posted Perm Shadow Form on 13 January 2013 - 01:56 PM
But then again, it's just my opinion. Perhaps most of the people do not enjoy complex games anymore, they just want to jump in and kill stuff.

of course, you could say that if certain things were already in a game x amount of years ago, then why couldn't they also have them in this game at launch, which i would agree with. i just hope they bring back some of the awesome sounding ideas from GW1 into this game, because i want more fun content that won't lose its luster so quickly, especially on the PvE side of things.
I thought it was a masterpiece from the start. I remember the game being released, me and four friends all created warrriors and "beat the game" and that was the best adventure i've ever experienced at that time.
The skill system was amazing at release. We had a warrior who would kill and then use his necro abilities to explode the bodies for aoe. We had warriors who used bows and ranger skills, etc. It was all 100% original builds, crafted to however you wanted it.
The story in all the GW1 games make GW2 story seem so lackluster... They had memorable characters, missions, they were all straight to the point-- no "filler" bullsh*t.
No grind for gear, no grind for levels, you simply followed the amazing storyline they had set out. They also had traditional quests for lore, xp, skills, and items-- these were in fact much more enriched in lore and story than GW2's events.
GW1 was 10/10 for me. GW2.... 4/10. But I still play it, sadly. I just hope the next official expansion brings back what GW1 had, god damn, that was a beautiful game.

#2070187 [Build] Sonic Boon - Shout Greatsword
Posted Brand on 09 November 2012 - 01:42 PM
__________With the help of a great Theory Crafter, Sithicus Dias, this build was born. Sithicus is the master on all things __________Shout-Warrior, and so I came to him looking for a build. I wasn't into being a Tank or Control Warrior, __________however, and I yearned for some way to utilize a Greatsword in conjunction with shouts to create a __________high damage support build. After a few lengthy discussions, Sithicus offered me an untested prototype build __________that stacked Might duration in order to increase damage output. This sounded perfect for me, and so I __________began testing it. After many changes, which I will detail in the sections following, a new build was forged. __________However, note that this build isn't for speedrunning or optimal groups. It is for the casual player or "pseudo-__________optimal" groups, refer to another build if speed is your main priority.
__________Weapon Skills:
More often than not, the weapon you choose defines your build, as is the case here. Greatsword is the only weapon in our arsenal that will work with this build. Your Autoattack applies two stacks of Vulnerability every 2.5 seconds that last for eight seconds. This means that you will have between six and eight stacks of Vulnerability constantly. This not only increases your damage, but that of your allies as well and as such should be considered a type of support. Your next skill, and the most powerful one you have, is Hundred Blades. This skill roots you in place for a few seconds while you tear the enemy apart, and using it will generate a lot of Might from the abundant Critical Hits. If you move it will end the cast, however, so it's important that you time this skill well to avoid wasting it or taking heavy damage. Your next three skills are almost completely for mobility. These skills are Whirlwind Attack, Bladetrail, and Rush. Whirlwind Attack will shoot you forward a good distance, damaging any enemies in your path. The important thing about Whirlwind Attack is that you cannot be hit while using it, meaning it acts as a free dodge roll. Bladetrail is a standard Cripple skill with a few perks. Not only is Bladetrail ranged and can be thrown behind you, but it hit's anything in the direction you throw it twice. Rush is a mobility skill that does decent damage, the only thing it is really useful for is getting back to your target quickly after a Whirlwind Attack. Last and most definitely least is our Burst, Arcing Slice. Arcing Slice does pitiful damage and gives us nine seconds of Fury when at full Adrenaline. Since we already have permanent Fury, there is no reason to use this skill at all.
__________Healing Skill:
The skill we choose here is Healing Surge. The amount that this skill heals for is based on your Adrenaline level, and since we won't be using our Burst we will always have max Adrenaline. Healing Surge heals for almost 9k with this build and full Adrenaline.
__________Utility Skills:
I cannot overstress how important Shouts are to this build. They are the "Sonic" in "Sonic Boon", and as such need to be used wisely. "For Great Justice!" is by far your most important Shout. This skill gives you and all nearby allies Fury and Might, and should be used every chance you get. Constant use of this skill will equate to twelve seconds of Fury every 20, and three stacks of Might for 42 seconds every 25. This means that if your allies are getting eight seconds of Fury from another source, you can permanently maintain Fury and six stacks of Might on your whole party."Shake It Off!" is next, removing Conditions from you and all allies is no small feat. This skill should be used whenever needed, and not for Conditions like Cripple or Chill."On My Mark!", though underrated, is also a very useful skill in single target fights. With 10% extra damage on an enemy for twelve seconds every 24 seconds, we're getting a five percent damage boost for the entire party, which is pretty significant. Your traits will make each of these Shouts heal you and four nearby allies.
Elite Skill:
Your Elite will be Signet of Rage. It is important to remember that this Signet is not taking away from team support, as supporting yourself is in fact supporting the team. The cooldown on the Battle Standard is too long, it lacks mobility, and only lasts for one minute every three. The resurrection ability it has is situational at best, and almost always remains useless. Signet of Rage on the other hand allows you to maintain permanent Fury and Might when in conjunction with "For Great Justice!". Not to mention the Swiftness you also get for increased mobility. Taking this Elite does not make you a bad person, a glass cannon, or unintelligent.
__________Strength Traits:
__________Disregarding the minor trait, the only trait we get in Strength is Berserker's Power(S:V). This trait gives us __________twelve percent damage when at maximum Adrenaline, which as mentioned earlier will be always. This is the __________clear choice for your leftover points when combined with the Power and Condition Duration the Strength line __________offers. The minor trait here damages enemies near you when you dodge roll in combat, which is a nice little __________boost albeit somewhat unimportant.
__________Arms Traits:
We will also put 20 points in Arms to pick up Rending Strikes(A:V), and Forceful Greatsword(A:X). The traits and stat gains here are very important and crucial to the build. Rending Strikes(A:V) gives you a 33% chance on a Critical Hit to apply Vulnerability. This trait synergizes well with the Greatsword Autoattack, "On My Mark!", and the Rifle skill Brutal Shot. This can be viewed as a support mechanism in and of itself, since Vulnerability just ensures the whole team kills enemies faster and easier. Forceful Greatsword(A:X) is the most important trait this build has. While using this trait, any Critical Hits you get will grant you a stack of Might for 5 seconds. Due to this trait, we can attain 25 stacks of Might simply by having high Precision. The first minor trait here is fairly useful as well. With it you gain a 33% chance on Critical Strikes to cause Bleeding for three seconds. With our high Malice, it's not a bad boost.
Tactics Traits:
__________We need to allot maximum points in Tactics for Vigorous Shouts(T:XII), Lung Capacity(T:VIII), and __________Empowered(T:VI). The main reason for putting points in Tactics is to get the 30 percent Boon __________duration. The Boon duration is essential to the build, but everything else is just an added bonus. Vigorous __________Shouts(T:XII) will cause your shouts to heal for 1192 plus 80% of your Compassion. Our Compassion is __________114, which equates to three 1,323 heals every ~21 seconds. Lung Capacity(T:VIII) reduces Shout __________cooldowns by 20%. This means "For Great Justice!" and "Shake It Off!" now have a 20 second cooldown, __________and "On My Mark!" has a 24 second cooldown. Lastly, Empowered(T:VI) grants you about 1.5% damage __________for every Boon on you. We maintain three Boons by ourselves (Fury, Might, and Swiftness) which means we __________have about 4.5% increased damage constantly. Any Boons we receive from allies will increase this __________percentage as well. The basis behind these choices is to build stacks of Might for significantly increased __________damage, and still maintain proactive healing and Boon/Condition support. None of the minor traits here are __________really worth mentioning, the bonuses they give are nice but not important.
__________Discipline Traits:
__________Here we also grab some huge benefits. Heightened Focus(D:V) gives us a huge boost of 9% Critical __________Strike Rating while we are at full Adrenaline. This trait is very similar to Berserker's Power(S:V). We also __________get a bonus 10% to Prowess, which is another great asset to the build.
Greatsword is your primary weapon here due to it's extreme power and synergy with the build. Greatsword is the "Boon" in "Sonic Boon" due to Forceful Greatsword(A:X) granting you a ton of Might stacks. Forceful Greatsword(A:X) works with this build like... something that works really well with something else. Seriously though, the combination is obscenely powerful. Your secondary weapon is fairly negotiable, but you are most likely going to want Rifle. It's an easy swap to change Forceful Greatsword(A:X) to Crack Shot(A:VII) during a ranged fight, it's Burst is too slow to be of use to you, and it provides synergy with Vulnerability and Bleeding.
The Sigil on the Greatsword in this build can be Superior Sigil of Strength or Superior Sigil of Fire. The prior ensures that you are going to have 25 stacks of Might constantly and the latter is better for experienced users of the build. With the Superior Sigil of Fire, your damage will go up and you will still remain at about 25 Might stacks. On your Rifle, however, Sigil of Superior Bloodlust works very well to increase your Power, and therefore increase your damage when you swap back to Greatsword.
You are going to want to balance Knight's Armor and Berserker's Armor in this build. What this means is that you are going to have Berserker's Gauntlets, Shoulders, and Boots. The rest of your armor will be Knight's. This choice gives you enough Toughness to remain standing, enough Power to hit hard, and enough Precision to get your Might stacks up. There is also the added bonus of some extra Prowess. No negotiating here, it is the most useful.
The Runes you choose should always be augmenting some core facet of your build, and for us that is Might stacks. As we are now, we get all the Might stacks we need, but most of them only last a few seconds. The solution is to use Runes that give you Might duration and Boon duration. We will use two Superior Runes of the Fire, two Superior Runes of the Monk, and two Superior Runes of Water. These will give us 20% Might duration, and 30% Boon duration. The reason we don't use Might duration on all our Runes is fairly simple. With full Might duration Runes we end up with ~57 seconds of Might on Signet of Rage, when we change that to this set up, we have ~54 seconds of might. Three little seconds is not enough to sacrifice the extra Boon duration Superior Rune of the Monk applies to all Boons, not just Might. Not to mention that your Boon duration will apply itself to Boons you cast on allies, meaning "For Great Justice!" is doing a lot for supporting your team.
Due to damage being a focus of this build, we run Berserker's Accessories for anything that isn't Ascended. These increase our damage by giving us enough Critical Damage to get respectable returns on our Critical Hits. One exception is that of the Ancient Karka Shells, which we use for the Celestial stats. For Ascended gear, pick up all Berserker's stats, with the exception of one Ring and the Amulet, which should be Celestial and Cavalier, respectively.
I would recommend that for the Gems you use all Exquisite Ruby Jewels for some bonus Precision and Prowess. They are very nice for their damage aspect, and will help you keep up your Might stacks. The amount of Prowess on them is also very high compared to their other stats, making them a great choice for Precision centric builds such as this one. As for Infusions, you should use Mighty Infusions in all but the Back. In the Back you should put a Malign Infusion, which bumps our Critical Strike Rating up a percent.
Q: This is a Shout build, why don't you use Soldier's Runes?
A: It's true that Soldier's Runes are great for Shout support, but this build isn't centered around support. We are still damage centric and we want our damage to be higher. Thankfully, we can bring support and do more damage with Boon duration Runes, which is essentially why we choose them.
Q: Won't our Bleeding hurt other player's Condition builds?
A: Well, yes, but keep in mind that in order to get Forceful Greatsword(A:X) we have to get the minor trait that gives us Bleeding on Critical Hits. This cannot be changed.
Q: What type of Rifle do you recommend?
A: I recommend a Berserker's Rifle, as it will keep your damage fairly high when not using the Greatsword.
Q: Can I use a Longbow instead of a Rifle?
A: You can, but technically Rifle is better for the build.
Q: Is there any specific gear that you recommend?
A: Please check the spreadsheet in the post below, as it contains all of the current gear choices and stat values.

Luckily there is still plenty for me to do outside of dungeons.
And guess why I have been trying to push for a flatter gear stat where people can get max weapon/max armor upon completing the game and further grind only gets them nicer looking skins. But there are many people in this forum who want to be rewarded with higher stats for their grind.
This means that either the casual players buy gems for gold to buy expensive gear or they give up pugging with others because pugging with others can lead to horrible experiences. And for what it is worth, unlike GW1, you don't have heroes that you can use, to avoid the horrible pugs. Casual players usually do not stay in hardcore guilds for long, they get kicked for their inactivity, so that means they can't rely on their almost empty casual guild. This is why I have been saying this game is not casual friendly.
My guild has only 2 person (including me) online at this time 10:11pm PST on a friday night.

1. I got kicked because i am a mesmer and the 'leader' says he doesnt want mesmers in it. Wish i could report that guy. Class-ism ingame. First world problems. Note, this kicking happened when the chest appeared and i didnt get it yet. I did blocked that guy though, is it possible to report?
2. I wanted to leave because i have lunch etc etc and urgently need to go. Result? Flaming by other WoWkids for 'Why do u join this dungeon then? Gtfo'. Lifeless people. Note, this happened AFTER we finished a fractal. Not in the middle, not at the beginning.
3. Oh, so apparently you need full exotics in order to join a party? No exotics? OK! Kick
4. Kicking people because it is their first time in the dungeon. "Excuse me XXXslayerXXX, how do i do this jump puzzle, i am new here --' Kicked.
5. Party leader got bored, so he and his friend kick everyone out. Griefing.
6. Player A L>dungeon. Player B invite. Player B ask: what difficulty. Player A says 'i am new, or i am difficulty 1'. Kicked. (NOTE, neither party mentioned what difficulty they are on)
7. There is racism in the game. One guy kicked a sylvari because he doesnt like trees. Thank god i am a human.

2. The new dungeon is not bad but you must have a regular grind group to increase your "level". Even in day one people don't want to group with other "under level" players. Disconnect is also an issue.
3. Frankly the new skin looks ugly......

This thread has been deleted from the official forums without any reason. Banns have been issued to the people posting. Please spread this information.
I did not get banned, i am merely reporting this to the various gaming press outlets. I know friends in game that have been banned for as little as quoting an ANet developer.
=== Snip ===
*1. "The game will be released when it's done". Yet at release date several of the things that were promised and were sometimes even indicated as being 'top priority', weren't "done" (and several of those still aren't available):*
• account security measures (these were only implemented after launch, when the damage was already done)
Eric Flannum
security is a big, big priority for us.
Martin Kerstein
We are taking account security very serious and there will definitely be ways to protect your account.
• measures against botting (still being implemented)
Eric Flannum
Discouraging the use of third party programs that exploit the game and negatively impact the experience of others is a top priority for us.
• no guesting (still not available)… which is becoming more and more of a concern now that world transfers are limited to once a week:
Martin Kerstein
When Guild Wars 2 launches, you will also have the option to play with your friends on another world with our free "guesting" feature.
• no rollback functionality for accounts (still not available)
And I won't even mention spectator mode or ladders for pvp, as ArenaNet has been evasive about when those would be made available from the very start (and I'm not much of a pvp person anyway).
*2. Dyes are character bound, not account bound.*
In short: a lot more grinding is required (or cash shop purchases) to get all the dyes you want on all characters.
Eric Flannum
And what we do is, as you find sets of dye, you unlock them for your account. So as you unlock dyes for your account, your characters just have them available for them.
Kristen Perry
Once you unlock the color, it will be available across your entire account, not just the individual character.
3. No dedicated healers, every profession was supposed to be equally viable in all roles, and every profession would be equally welcome in a party.
Yet (for example) the guardian (with most of its stills being support/healing based) is so close to a healer that he is always welcome in a party, 90% of his skills are support oriented, whereas a thief or ranger (with much less support options) are often refused from parties and are much harder to spec for support (with far less options). In short: ArenaNet's implementation of professions failed to make them all truely equal.
*4. No need for "LFG" for hours to get into a group.* Yet the cities and the lower level zones are filled with people just looking for a group who wants them so that they can play through a dungeon in explorable mode. This is actually a follow-up to the previous point… if all professions would be equally effective at all roles, then nobody would have a reason to refuse people from their party because they are a ranger and not a guardian.
Also, there isn't enough motivation to play through story mode dungeons with lower level players. A level 35 player wanting to do Ascalonian Catacombs will have to spend a long time looking for a group, because very few groups actually want a level 35 stranger in their party when they do dungeons. There isn't any kind of reward for the party for playing with lower level players.
*5. Ever branching story:* with only 1 ending and several knots where branches come together again, these story branches are extremely disappointing.
I would at least have expected different endings if you choose The Vigil, the Durmand Priory or the Order of Whispers.
Colin Johanson
Every race has three branching dynamic stories right off the bat where they can pick from. So, for example, the humans you can pick to be from the city streets, the city nobility, or a commoner, and based on that choice you get a completely different personal story than somebody else. And then within that story, there are more branches that you can make decisions that further branch the story in other directions. So, I can be from the commoner class and you can be from the commoner class and we might experience a different story because of that. And then if you take that and say, all those options are available just for humans, then the other four races all have all these other completely different branching stories you can do as well.
This is just plain misleading. Very few of the branches are only available to one race, most of the branches actually are identical and not race dependent at all.
It's not a branching story, it's a 'merging' storyline… it starts off with a couple of different branches per race, but it quickly merges into one main storyline, with a few very small branches (paths) along the way that quickly merge back into the main story. After the first few levels, what race you took and what options you chose at character creation quickly become irrelevant, and you are all merged back into the one story thread.
*6. No grinding dungeons for tokens. Earlier on in the development, PC Gamer spoke to Eric Flannum, and he confirmed:*
Eric Flannum
"It's more of a badge system, so this is something that we did in Guild Wars 1 as well. Our basic philosophy is that you should never complete a piece of content and get something you don't want. So it's going to be the case where you go through and are guaranteed to get a piece of gear that you didn't have before, and that you're going to want." So, you're guaranteed to get a piece of gear every time you do a dungeon? "Yes." Sweet.
By now we all know how much grinding is required to get the dungeon pieces.
In fact, there wasn't supposed to be any need for grinding at all.
On top of that, there is a severe lack of personal goals once your have reached max level and you have explored all the zones. There aren't any long-term goals worth going for, other than the dungeon gear (or the legendary gear). So if you don't want to pvp, all that's left to do at max level, is the repetitive grind.
Colin Johanson
Most MMOs these days make you grind and do really repetitive, boring content over and over again. There are moments of fun, but then you're back swinging your sword over and over again, chasing around a moth or an ogre that's standing around in the world doing nothing. That's the part of the genre we think players are done with. We want to make something that's better than that.
Eric Flannum
I think MMOs have two primary stigmas attached to them that non-MMO gamers hear and drives them away. The first one is the 'grind', the idea that you're going to have to do a repetitive task over and over again… we wanted to eliminate that.
We don't want the player to ever have to grind and do something they don't want to do to progress in the game.
Isaiah Cartwright
We expect content—not long, grindy progression—to be the deciding factor that keeps people playing our game. We want everyone to stick with Guild Wars 2 because our content is fun and enjoyable, not out of some dogged determination to slowly, slowly advance.
*7. No gear treadmill...* yet after we reached max stat gear (exotics), ArenaNet first introduced Legendary weapons, now Ascended armor, and in the future Legendary armor… all with better stats. The rare gear (legendaries) was supposed to differ only in skin, not in stats:
Colin Johanson
The rarest items in the game are not more powerful than other items, so you don't need them to be the best. The rarest items have unique looks to help your character feel that sense of accomplishment, but it's not required to play the game. We don't need to make mandatory gear treadmills, we make all of it optional, so those who find it fun to chase this prestigious gear can do so, but those who don't are just as powerful and get to have fun too.
Mike O'Brien
Here's what we believe: If someone wants to play for a thousand hours to get an item that is so rare that other players can't realistically acquire it, that rare item should be differentiated by its visual appearance and rarity alone, not by being more powerful than everything else in the game. Otherwise, your MMO becomes all about grinding to get the best gear. We don't make grindy games – we leave the grind to other MMOs.
*8. Zones remaining "relevant":* although the level scaling is a great idea, as it is right now, the game encourages grinding in only 1 zone: Orr. If you're playing in Orr, you can easily make 6+ gold per hour and you can work on gathering resources that can be used to craft legendary gear. If you're playing in any other zone in the game, then you can count yourself lucky if your "scaled up" rewards net you 2 gold per day, and you can forget about those legendaries.
Which is the main reason why Orr is still full, and most of the other zones are almost empty. There is nothing in those zones to entice players to keep coming back and do the events there again. Meaning that in many zones (even on full servers), a player playing through those zones will never be able to do the group events or take on the champions… because there's simply no one else around to help out.
So please up the rewards in all other zones in the game and give every single zone something unique and worthwhile, to make it more interesting for max level players to return to every single zone and replay them over and over again.
On top of that, the scaling still doesn't work too well, making lower level content far too easy if you're scaled down from level 80 in full gear… even more so if you're in a group. It doesn't "remain challenging" as was the intention.
Right now, instead of addressing this problem of replayability, ArenaNet is spending most of its time into making new and higher level content to give players something new to grind for… and if that works, then Orr could soon see a significant drop in population as well.
*9. No crafting of throwaway items.* As it is, the tradingpost is a joke. Some higher level items are in huge This thread has been deleted from the official forums without any reason. Banns have been issued to the people posting. Please spread this information.
I did not get banned, i am merely reporting this to the various gaming press outlets. I know friends in game that have been banned for as little as quoting an ANet developer.
Eric Flannum
Our goal with our crafting philosophically is that you'll never make an item that is a throwaway item. You'll always be making something that is going to be valuable to someone. Whether it's for yourself, whether it's to put on the auction house, whether it's a consumable that people want, there's never a time when you're just making something to increase your skill and then you're just going to vendor it or chuck it or whatever else you'd do with it afterwards.
And finally, a few more of my concerns:
• The rates on the trading post and the currency exchange (gems) are ridiculous (15%/36%). Have a look at the rates on auction sites like ebay, as they are much more reasonable.
• Inflation on gem prices is ridiculous. On release date you could buy 100 gems for around 25 silver. Right now you'll need closer to 90 silver for those same 100 gems. And still very few people actually consider it worthwhile to pay real money for gems to transfer them to gold.
so who want to level up their crafting skills are forced to make a fair amount of throwaway items.

Look if you hate the game this much then go play something else.
This game just isn't for you, no biggie.
It really is that simple!
I'm actually gonna pick it up again when WvW gets some progression. This isn't about hate this about holding a company we are paying for a service accountable.

Set Name: 8258 Crane Truck
Theme: Technic
Released: 2009
Pieces: 1877
Price: $149.99/$106.35EUR/91.57GBP
Here are some quicklinks Lego.com, Brickset
Wanna see some pictures? Let's start with the normal box arts and manuals!
Box art front
While Bionicle boxes have great background, Technics have great visuals for the vehicles. This, I think is the largest Technic set for this year.
Box art Back
Many people like the alternate build. The truck actually looks very well done. Unlike other Technic sets, the truck actually has panels. The instructions are downloadable from a website. The four manuals are all for one build.
Box art inside
All my pictures normally have links to view larger versions. Click on it to see all the different things the Crane truck can do! Again, Lego likes to over-color the red. It's not as vibrant or glossy as i the pictures.
Sticker sheet
Many stickers. Looks like Lego went all out to help this Technic set have the "look" of the real thing.
Instruction manuals
Four books big. And it's ALL for this one build. All the covers look the same as the 1st.
Bags of parts
Now this is a proper Technic set. No numbered packages. Heh. This actually hindered me. Since I build at work, I have two plastic drawers I can put these in. Top drawer holds the smaller parts. I keep it on a "flat pillow" as to keep the noise down. The bottom drawer holds larger pieces but no "pillow" to keep the noise down. If you look carefully, you'll see a lot of the bags are dups. Like for the blue and black pins. And just the sheer number of small parts. It was hard in trying to determine what I should put into each drawer.
Here's whats left after I finished the build. I'm thinking maybe I have too much... Nah.
The Build
Ok. Four books. 1800+ pieces. Yes, I really took over a HUNDRED photos. I figured most people won't look at each photo on a contact sheet that big, so I decided to try my hand with doing a slideshow. It moves quick. About 1 second for each photo. Make sure the "HD" is red colored. Video is viewed best in "high-def", which can be view on the youtube site itself. Although not shown here in HD, it's still pretty sharp.
Problem part
See those two "Yellow Technic Engine Crankshaft" that attach to the extender arm? If you rotate it 180 deg, it's like not even 1/8 of an inch difference, but it's enough to stop the top arm from folding all the way closed.
I guess since I saved a bunch of space in combining the photo-build, I'll upload a bunch of final photos for you to enjoy! All pictures are clickable to view in a larger photo too big for most monitors.
Final build pictures
Side view. Plain, but you get to see the profile. I wish I had something next to it to show you the size. It's pretty long.
Front view. This is a nice clear shot to show you the front profile. Nice use of stickers. At first I thought I thought I would have issues with with the stickers because of curved surfaces. But it's fine. I do like how Lego used the blue pieces behind the lower fog lights. It gives it a modern look to it. The sticker has different yellow names that you can use. Not sure why. Maybe they had extra space on the sheet?
Rear view. Not much to see here. There is a trailer hitch or whatever thats called, but so far no trailer set to hook up to it. :)
V8 engine view. As you can see, the whole cab flips forward for viewing of the engine. Like other Technic sets, the pistons move up and down when the truck rolls.
Closeup of the crane. Reminds me of those robotic arms you see at an assembly plant. This is the reason why I wanted this set. From this view, you can also see where the battery pack is stored. Where normally the crew cab storage area would be.
Front top view. Here you can see the horns on the top of the cab. Not sure if those "radar" dishes was the best choice. It looks too flat and not like a horn. Also on the top, you can see the wind deflector. Did you know those wind deflectors on these big trucks can actually save 10-15% in gas?
Here is a view with the crane arm extended. Those "Light Bluish Gray Technic Linear Actuator with Dark Bluish Gray Ends" that is used 2x to operate the crane arms is NOT pneumatic. On one end, a shaft is rotated and in turn slowly pushes the actuator pin in and out depending which way the end is being rotated. The top arm is all MANUAL. The black extender moves by rotating the black wheel on the back joint of that extender. Also the line is MANUAL to extend/retract the hook. I thought it was powered too when I bought it. Guess there would be no easy way to do that without making the crane ugly with gears.
Here, you can see the crane fully raised up. Not that it could be used to lift like that since it's almost vertical. But you can see how high it really can go.
Here is one of the control door opened. This side, you can see the switch for positive or negative power. The lever is pointing to the left. It's supposed to be pointing upwards, but I found it easier to keep it to the left.
This is the other control panel open on the other side. Here, you can see that raising or lowering the TWO, three position switches, you can control the lower and upper crane arm with one switch. And the other switch controls the crane rotation and the stabilizer arms to go out or in.
A close up view of the lower part of the crane. I was hoping you could see more of the gears but the only one you can see is the dark grey gear that rotates the base of the crane.
Some outdoor shots
Since this is a "Power Function" set, I thought I would make a few videos showing some of the features. A note about videos. They are HD. But to view in HD, you need to open it on the youtube site to see it.
Truck stabilizer in action
Lower crane arm in action
Upper crane arm in action
Crane closing to a compact state
This build was pretty easy considering the 1800 pieces, and that I had to dump them all into a drawer without sorting.
There was a couple of this that I ran into. Some are problems, others are just things I didn't know.
1) The rotation of the crane. I'm not sure why, but it doesn't always rotate.
2) I pulled hairs trying to figure out why I couldn't make the crane fold into a compact state like in the final photo. It turned out that if you put these yellow pegs "Yellow Technic Engine Crankshaft" in wrong on the upper crane arm, it will actually stop it from folding completely. The instructions isn't too clear on the how the part is to be put on. See picture above.
3) I don't like the boxed in area for the crane. You can't 360 degree rotate the crane without bumping into the cage.
4) I mentioned before the crane line and final extension on the crane is manual. You need to use your hand to raise and lower the line and extend and retract the extender.
5) The stabilizers have manual legs on them. Once you extend the stabilizers, you need to lower the legs on each one by hand.
My rating:
Playability: 4/5. This set is very playable. A few minor bugs, but still fun. It won't lift anything heavy, but you can pretend. :)
Design: 4/5. Being the biggest Technic set of the year, they did a good job. But a few minor problems like the crane not being able to rotate 360 degree when folded, bothered me. Then again, maybe the real rig you could only compact it and not rotate it to save space.
Build experience: 5/5. Comparing it to other Technic sets, this is... harder. No bags are marked so everything is in one big pile. Just the way I like it. I want a challenge. But still, finding out that yellow piece was backwards was a pain. As I mentioned, it's not clear in the instructions.
Overall: 4/5. This set was over $140. Price per part is a good deal when compared to lets say a Star Wars set. And this set is very playable. If you don't like Technic line then it may not be for you, but the overall rating is based on if you were actually looking for this set.
Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed it!
All photos are click able for larger, bigger-than-life picture sizes! You can see all photos used here, including the larger build pictures: 8258 Crane Truck.

Yesterday, while attempting to restore a single mailbox completely, Backup
Exec 8.6 stopped after 99% saying access was denied. Every restore job after
that kept sending the job to Hold after only a few seconds. Finally, I realized
the hard drive was down to only 65 MB. I had 2 GB free before I started trying
to restore that single box! Anyone know how this happened?

Stories from DEP is a collection of feature articles
published in DEP's internal newsletter, Weekly Pipeline.
This article was originally published November 15, 2011.
This past July, New York City experienced a string of record temperatures: eleven 90° plus days, the hottest stretch occurring on July 22-23, with temperatures topping 100° for two straight days. These are the times when most of us crank up the air conditioning and keep the fans on high, but for operators at DEP's wastewater treament plants, this heat wave was a time to reconfigure sources for powering equipment. As they are well aware, the hottest days of the summer are the days the electrical grid is most vulnerable to failure.
On July 22, around 3 pm, New York City's grid saw a new record peak load of 13,189 megawats (MW), more than 45% over the typical summer peak of 9,000 MW. On hot days like this, the city demands more power than can be transmitted from outside power plants, requiring smaller and less often used "peaker" generation plants in the city to come online. Even still, when these extreme peak load events occur, the lines and equipment that carry the electricity become strained and more likely to fail, creating conditions for a potential blackout.
During these times, communication and cooperation with the electrical utilities become key. Many pieces of equipment, such as the blowers that enable secondary treatment and biological nitrogen removal, draw such large amounts of electricity that running them can have a significant impact on the grid. Because of these impacts, DEP actively participates in the Peak Load Management (PLM) program run by the New York Power Authority. DEP and Con Ed also have open lines of communication during peak days as well. Under PLM, during periods of high electricity demand, some DEP facilities shed load. For example, the Owls Head and Coney Island plants would run much of their equipment on power from engines instead of from the grid. Owls Head plant superintendent Bill Grandner says, "It is exciting to have the opportunity to harness methane gas, a valued by-product of wastewater treatment, and turn it into kilowatts, whose energy can help the communities and citizens of this great city." Load-shedding reduces the burden on the grid, meaning DEP helps citizens keep cool on hot days.
The PLM program is one piece in DEP's energy management toolbox. It is instrumental during these notable heat wave events, but there is more to be done to manage energy demand at the plants on a long term basis. DEP's Office of Energy Policy and Infrastructure works closely with the operations bureaus to tackle this issue. The team leads projects for implementing distributed generation at the treatment plants, including solar, wind, and cogeneration (creating heat and energy at the same time). Other efforts include investigating cost-effective ways to use energy more efficiently at the plants, pursuing solutions that would potentially give operators greater awareness and control over energy usage. Not only would these projects reduce the plants' energy demand, they have the promise of advancing DEP's energy goals of increasing power reliability, making use of clean generation technologies, and significantly decreasing greenhouse gas emissions.
This year's peak summer days may be gone, but the work to shape DEP's energy future continues year-round.

Atrial Fibrillation Health Center
Atrial Flutter
In this article
Atrial Flutter Care at Home
Most people known to have atrial flutter will be taking prescribed drugs. Avoid taking any stimulants, and consult with your health care provider before taking any new medications, herbs, or supplements.
Medical Treatment for Atrial Flutter
The first step in treatment is to restore normal rate and sinus rhythm. There are two ways to do this, with medication or with defibrillation.
Defibrillation: This technique uses electrical current to "shock" the heart back to normal sinus rhythm. This is sometimes called "DC cardioversion."
- This is done by applying a device called an external defibrillator to the chest.
- This device uses the paddles familiar to watchers of television medical dramas.
- When this is done in a hospital, usually a mild general anesthetic is given first because the electrical shocks are painful.
- Cardioversion works very well; more than 90% of people convert to sinus rhythm. For some, however, this is not a permanent solution; the arrhythmia comes back.
- Cardioversion increases the risk of stroke and thus, if time allows, requires pretreatment with a blood thinning drug.
Catheter ablation (radiofrequency ablation): "Ablation" means removal. This technique inactivates the abnormal conduction pathways in the right atrium.
- The abnormal pathway(s) is found, and a catheter is placed at this precise location in the conduction system.
- After proper placement, the catheter delivers radiofrequency energy, which burns ("ablates") a portion of the abnormal electrical conduction pathway. This inactivates the abnormal pathway to provide more consistent flow of electrical impulses.
- This technique is low risk; it works in some people but not all. It has few complications and, unlike surgery, requires little recovery time.
Atrial Flutter Medications
The choice of medication depends on the frequency of atrial flutter, the underlying cause, your other medical conditions and overall health, and the other drugs you take. The classes of medications used in atrial flutter are as follows:
- Anti-arrhythmic medications: These drugs are used to chemically convert atrial flutter to normal sinus rhythm, reduce the frequency and duration of atrial flutter episodes, and prevent future episodes. They are often given to prevent return of atrial flutter after cardioversion. Examples are amiodarone, sotalol, ibutilide, propafenone, and flecainide.
- Digoxin (Lanoxin): This drug decreases the conductivity of electrical impulses through the SA and AV nodes, slowing down the heart rate.
- Beta-blockers: These drugs decrease the heart rate by slowing conduction through the AV node, plus they have a direct anti-arrhythmic effect on the atria.
- Calcium channel blockers : These drugs also slow down the heart rate by slowing conduction through the AV node.
- Anticoagulants: These drugs reduce the ability of the blood to clot, thus reducing the risk of an unwanted blood clot forming in the heart or in a blood vessel. Atrial flutter increases the risk of forming such blood clots.

A Clovis & Portales Survival Guide
Bountiful Baskets will have a great affect on your intake of micronutients. Get weekly loads of produce for as little as $15!
A year and a half ago when I first landed, I found one health food place that had never heard of Bountiful Baskets before and all of the farmers markets were closed. In a time before Paradise Market was ever heard of, this left me with Sprouts… 2 hours away. NOT ANY MORE!! We have a Co-op!
If you are a person who likes food and has a credit card… especially a person that loves to cook… this will be a treat!! OK. The way a Co-Op works is:
Everyone puts a contribution into a pot via internet and credit card. The Co-Op people buy entire pallets of fruits and veggies directly from farmers with the money from that pot. Saturday, a truck comes with all those fruits and veggies… volunteers take those veggies and divides them equally for the number of contributors. You bring a bag/basket/box to carry your goods home in and the receipt from your contribution.. and then you take home your portion of veggies. Your portion will be a basket full of fruits and a basket full of veggies. The produce items that are purchased en mass are guided by occasional surveys from contributors. (What was your favorite item, What was your least favorite item, ect.) I know it all sounds a bit complicated but its been working this way for years and it runs a lot smoother than it sounds. The worst thing that will ever happen is the truck might run late.
You can get a basket full of farm fresh produce for $15 or upgrade to certified organic for an extra $10. They have weekly seasonal extras that you can pitch in for that are a steal. Expect extra options like mass quantities of citrus and cucumber in Summer. We just recently got a 40lb load of tomatoes for $20. They also have some random offerings like a bucket of honey or coconut oil. We only get our bread from the Co-Op. Its another great deal at $8 for 5 loaves of organic 9 grain bread.
My other favorite things are the "packs". A pack is an extra bag that you can add to your contribution for about $8 and is themed! I've gotten a Thai pack, Italian pack, guacamole pack. The Thai pack for example might have ginger, garlic, onions, bock choy, that weird asian brocoli, lemon grass, some other random Thai stuff… but until my herb garden starts putting out like I paid her to, the herb pack will always be my favorite.
People on a budget should buy this. Health conscious people should buy this. People with large families should buy this. Students who dont have time to grocery shop should buy this. (I'm a fan, can you tell?) Its a community affair and it provides great food for a low cost. To think… one of my girlfriends had never eaten bok choy until she came to enjoy one of my Bountiful Basket stir frys! Thanks to Bountiful Baskets my pantry is stocked with mason jar rainbows full of jellies, preserves, salsas, sauces and pickles. Its completely run by volunteers and everyone is welcome to lend a hand. If you are interested in volunteering all you need to do is show up to the pick up site an hour early. Its a great way to get kids involved with the community and interested in healthy eating. People bring their children to the pick up site all the time and teenagers make great volunteers.
OK. Now the downside:
The contribution window is Monday to Tuesday at 10pm. The contributions have a limit and do often cap out. You have to be quick on the draw so not to miss out. The easiest thing for me is to set an alarm on my phone but I still get text reminders from friends all the time. (I have great friends)
They only accept Visa and Mastercard. Sorry AMEX people.
Pick up is on Saturdays. Period. You show up when they tell you to or you dont get your basket. I have had to pick up baskets for friends who couldn't make the pick up time on many occasions and its not a big deal but if you know you aren't flexible on Saturdays, arrangements are in order.
You cannot pick up the extras without first contributing for a basket. So when you dont want an entire basket of produce but you do want the rhubarb pack for $8 or the big bag of granola for $10… You have to tack it onto a friends contribution. Also not a huge deal. I've done this for people too but its still something to keep in mind.
You will not always love everything in your basket. Celery. I get celery and I hate it!! The thing is that these pallets are purchased based on what makes everybody happy. You will get surveys once in a while after picking up your contribution asking what your favorites and least favorites were. Checking up on the quality of the produce to make sure the farmers are up to par. If I am the only person who hates celery… I'm a little out of luck. If squash is showing up bruised, they'll find another farmer.
You will not always know what everything in your basket is, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but worth noting. You will absolutely broaden your produce horizons which is always fun. Persimmons, artichokes, alien looking squash, tomatillos. It's all in there at one point or another. They try to jazz up the basket with a 'wild card' veggie and its always fun to be a detective and scour the internet for new recipes. If you ever have questions about your basket feel free to ask a volunteer. I know the Portales site FB page is always giving out info and recipe ideas too.
The truck is late. It happens and its no ones fault. Keep up with your local BB site to get real time updates on if your truck is on time or not. It usually is but you just can never be too safe. Here is the link to the Portales Site.
If you want more info, check them out at BountifulBaskets.org
Kimberly the cut off for ordering baskets is 10PM on Tuesdays or til they sell out, You also might add that now are requiring the confirmation number electronic or printed. That anyone may pick up for you providing they have your confirmation.. Might mention something about the organic too, Great site,I really enjoyed it, you have been busy!
Do you do your own canning, or are preserves occasionally available as an add on?

they are easy and great as i have four kids that are big fans of baked beans i love yummy quick to cook food to make keep up the awasome recipes
Create a mouth-watering lineup of meal ideas with two Kiwi classics – Wattie's Baked Beans and mince. It all starts with a delicious Savoury Mince and Beans base – the perfect springboard to a host of hot snacks and dinner ideas the family will love.
Toasted Sandwich
For tasty toasties, butter bread, fill with mince and beans mixture, toast them and voilà – you're the new family favourite too.
Kiwi Pie
Forget store-bought pies. For an easy alternative, fill a flaky pastry case with the tasty mix and top with another layer of pastry. Bake until golden.
Baked Potato
For a nutritious lunch, bake potatoes and fill with heated mince and bean mix, garnishing with a sprig of parsley to finish.
Mince on Toast
For a brunch-time treat, top toast with savoury mince and beans and a perfectly poached egg seasoned with cracked black pepper to taste.
Cottage Pie
Score a perfect 10 for deliciousness. Spoon dollops of freshly mashed potatoes over the hearty mince and beans base, sprinkle with grated cheese and bake until golden.
Spaghetti Bolognese
Boost the family intake of healthy beans with my new twist on Spaghetti Bolognese. And for an authentic kick sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bellissimo!
For tasty toasties, butter bread, fill with mince and beans mixture, toast them and voilà – you're the new family favourite too.
Feeding the troops this weekend? Spread a pizza base with the savoury base and top with a handful of mixed fresh herbs and a sprinkling of cheese.
Top corn chips with the flavourful base for tasty nachos the whole family will love.
For brilliant burritos, fill tortillas with the savoury base, add your favourite salad and wrap.
Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and cook the onion until it begins to soften. Add beef mince and brown over a high heat, breaking up the mince with a fork if necessary.
Stir in the can of chopped tomatoes, Marmite and Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add Wattie's Baked Beans and continue cooking for a further 10 minutes until the mince is cooked through and the beans are hot.
Spice it up with sweet chilli, Tabasco or HP Sauce.

How Often Should I Be Feeding My Guppies?
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:18 AM
I have 5 beautiful male guppies but I'm not sure how often they're supposed to be fed??
The food pack says 2-3 times a day, which seems slightly excessive to me??
I've been putting in a small pinch of food in the morning and a small pinch in the evening - is this ok, or too much??
Any advice would be great
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:20 AM
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:22 AM
every other day is usually the way to go with feeding i believe.Over feeding leads to a messy tank and makes for more ammonia in the tank as well.
So just 1 pinch of food every other day??
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:24 AM
when feeding add a pinch and when its gone add another but do this no longer than 2 minutes

yes as mwood2 said. either once every day or once every other day. for guppies i recomend you get a food rich in natural dyes like beetroot so they bring out there very nice colours. i find that aquarian colour food works well with guppies. just remember dont over feed. and the packet says 2-3 times a day because they want you to use the product up quickly so you buy some more. and 2-3 times a day feeding is only recomended for fry
when feeding add a pinch and when its gone add another but do this no longer than 2 minutes
I have tropical fish food, "That helps enrich natural colours", so that should be ok right??
I think I'll stick to feeding them a small amount every evening, if that sounds ok??
They're technically my 4 year old's "pets" and he never forgets to feed them so I think he'd be a little confused if we started missing days! Lol!
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:48 AM
Posted 25 October 2008 - 08:55 AM
well missing a day is fine since most fish need to not be feed for a few days before they even begin to starve. Its fine as long as you keep an eye on the water quality. Also a good diet of their food then just flakes might be a good idea as well. I feed my fish Blood worms and Brine shrimp as well.
I've been testing the Ammonia and Nitrite levels daily and I'm still doing daily water changes as they're new into the tank so I didn't want the ammonia to shoot through the roof!!
I've been cleaning a gravel a little whilst changing the water too so I'm hoping I'm keeping everything up to scratch!!
This is my first attempt at keeping Guppies - and I have to say that they're such lively little things - I was trying to get a water sample yesterday and they all swam to the surface and started crowding around my fingers!! Lol!
I was told to give them blood worms occasionally as a treat - is it ok to buy them frozen?? How often should I give them these??
Posted 25 October 2008 - 09:11 AM
Posted 25 October 2008 - 09:47 AM
i buy them frozen, I put a cube into a bowl of water and let it warm up, once all the worms are released I use an eye dropper and drop them into the tank. While my AFD loved the worms they did seem to make my Molly Constipated. make sure you watch the behavior of your guppies when you feed them the worms. Although when i used brine shrimp none of my fish/frogs have had any issues.
Ok - thanks for the advice!!
Posted 25 October 2008 - 10:50 AM
Posted 25 October 2008 - 11:49 AM
i think about 2-3 times a day is enough:)
i feed my fish frozen food once a week amy
Posted 25 October 2008 - 12:22 PM
Posted 25 October 2008 - 07:03 PM
The other advantage is that as soon as they see you and see the lid open if they're reasonably hungry they'll go for it straight away, meaning none makes it to the bottom to rot away and break down into ammonia etc. And of course the less you feed, the less they s**t which is handy if you've got a newly setup aquarium and are being careful about ammonia levels.

|hope college > emmaus scholars program
Below you will find a number of answers to common questions about the Emmaus Scholars Program.
Should there be any questions for which we have not provided an adequate response please attend one of the information sessions or contact us directly at email@example.com.
Do I have to be a Religion Major (Minor) or Christian Ministry Minor to be part to be an Emmaus Scholars Program?
No, all Hope students are eligible to become Emmaus Scholars. The program's emphasis upon leadership development, theological reflection, spiritual formation and the work of justice effectively complements other academic programs and majors at Hope.
Is the Emmaus Scholars Program an Honors Program?
Yes and no. Like the Phelps Scholars, this program offers a select cohort of students unique opportunities to learn and grow. However, unlike a traditional Honors program, this program is open to all students not just those with the highest GPA.
What qualifications do I need in order to be considered a candidate for this program?
Any Hope student who desires to commit to live in intentional Christian community, who wishes to love God and neighbor, to participate fully in prayer, worship, service, witness, leadership, learning and scholarship alongside fellow Emmaus Scholars is qualified to become an Emmaus Scholar.
What can I do if I don't have a Pastor, Priest or Chaplain to write a letter of reference on my behalf?
If you are new to the Christian faith, or simply don't know a pastor, priest, or chaplain well enough, then please ask another adult who knows you well enough to speak of your commitment to the Christian faith.
Can I apply to be an Emmaus Scholars Program if I am currently a Junior?
Sadly, the program is for Sophomores and Juniors. This means that only current Freshmen and Sophomores can apply.
How many credits dos this program take?
The Emmaus Scholars Program is comprised of 10 credits, 4 credits of which satisfy your Religion II general education requirement.
How do I become an Emmaus Scholars Program?
Complete a short application form that asks you to tell us something about yourself, describe your commitment to Christ and understanding of the mission and witness of the church, tell us what short-term mission or cross-cultural experiences you may have had, and help us to learn what you hope to learn as an Emmaus Scholar. Don't worry about providing a sophisticated understanding of the church, Christianity or mission. Instead simply help us to get to know you, and your desire to have each of these become an increasingly important part of your life.
What is the meaning of the term "Emmaus" in the title of this program?
The term "Emmaus" appears in the final chapter of Luke's Gospel. This chapter narrates the teaching, appearance, fellowship, revelation, command, and blessing of Christ. This passage illustrates a number of key elements of the Christian life, including:
Dr. Mark Husbands with Wheaton students on the road to Emmaus, 2006.
What is "Integral Mission"?
Integral mission leads us to see that the transforming love and grace of Jesus Christ has both individual and social consequences. It leads Christians to commit their lives to a holistic expression of the Gospel: refusing to separate evangelism from social justice, while also resisting expressions of justice that fail to name Christ as the source, authority and goal of the moral life. In short, integral mission joins together worship, care for the poor, prayer and the proclamation of God's transformative mission of forgiveness and reconciliation.
Is there a scholarship for students who become Emmaus Scholars?
No. Just like the Phelps Scholars Program, students in the program are called scholars because of their commitment to academic excellence and desire to understand the world in all of its detail, wonder, and significance. Of course, Emmaus Scholars should certainly apply for other scholarships for which they are eligible. The Financial Aid Office can provide you with more information.
What are the expectations the college has of its Emmaus Scholars?
We encourage athletes, and all students who are involved in demanding programs at Hope to apply to the Emmaus Scholars Program, provided that they are willing to fully commit to participate in all aspects of the program. We know, for example, that the majority of student athletes show considerable discipline in organizing their lives in ways that allow them to perform at a high-level in both athletics and academics. We will work with each Emmaus Scholar to do all that we can to ensure that they can flourish and enjoy their involvement in both academic and athletic pursuits.
what is the difference between the Emmaus Scholars Program and Hope Neighbors Community?Well, in important ways, they share a "family resemblance" - both programs are committed to intentional Christian community, providing students with wonderful opportunities to grow in their faith, to worship, study Scripture, commit to a local congregation, explore justice and be involved in outreach to the community. The central goal of both programs is to help students to glorify God, grow in their faith, and live out the Gospel in community.
The most important differences between these two programs looks something like this:
Who should apply to be an Emmaus Scholar?
Anyone who is interested! We seek an energetic, committed, and diverse group of students who wish to live in intentional Christian community learning how to do justice, grow in their faith, and critically reflect upon integral mission and the centrality of Christ to God's reconciliation of the world.

It is well known that an overdose of acetanilid may produce alarming or even fatal results and that with an average dose the same untoward symptoms may follow in one who, because of idiosyncrasy, is peculiarly sensitive to the influence of the drug. There are few physicians who have used the remedy at all extensively who have not at times seen more or less pronounced cyanosis, feeble pulse, subnormal temperature, sweating, yawning, nausea, vertigo, perhaps syncope or marked symptoms of collapse, follow its administration.
The literature abounds in reports of acute toxic symptoms after acetanilid. Some of these doses have been small, 1.5 to 5 grains, yet, on the other hand, large doses have been borne with impunity. I have known 30 grains at a dose to be given for the relief of pain, this amount being often repeated, yet no unpleasant results followed. Hartge1 reports 30 grams (450

The ANY Wii guide is the best guide to follow. Since you are having problems with a black screen, take a look at THIS THREAD. After you fix your black screen problem, continue with the ANY Wii guide.
Before I found this fine site I letterbombed my Wii and installed usb loader GX from a youtube video (I know, the cardinal sin). After finding this site I would like to know what I can do to make my install in line with what this site supports?
It crossed my mind to follow the softmad guide but I'm not sure if that's a good idea. I tried to run hackmii from my HB channel to do a backup and got a blank screen forcing me to reboot. At that point I decided I need some help.
Recently I ran the d2x cIOS intaller and installed V7 in an attempt to get my copy of Skylanders Giants to work with usb loader GX (portal of power only works with original game disk). I wonder if the changes I made are what caused hackmii to freeze up??
Any help would be appreciated.
The ANY Wii guide is the best guide to follow. Since you are having problems with a black screen, take a look at THIS THREAD. After you fix your black screen problem, continue with the ANY Wii guide.
Thank you. I see that the softmod guide should work over the top of an allready softmodded wii. I just don't want to continue with it until I can make a backup. I'll look into the link you posted.
I am hoping I can move foreword with the softmod guide that says and I quote "Softmoded Wiis, just follow the guide, don't delete anything. This guide will overwrite your old softmod!"
I got Skylanders to work. I had to go into the game load menu and set the game ios to 222. It does bother me that I am not set up using the softmod guide but at this point I don't want to risk messing things up. I appreciate all the help that I have gotten from this forum.
Please Use The EDIT Function.

LOL, I'm pretty sure that didn't come out the way you meant it too. Did you just say that following the softmod guide is risky??
Erm..He said following a Failtube guide is risky. As most of them are unsupported by the vid uploader,
and certainly aren't supported by us. Where as the softmod any wii guide is supported by us, and
has many happy customers.
I meant no disrespect to nightstah, and I understood what he meant. I just saw a mistake in the way he worded it and couldn't keep my mouth shut (figuratively that it). Again I am thankful to all who take the time to help out, especially in the newbie forum where people may not know how to respond to criticism quite yet.

London - Pakistan and Somerset bowler Abdur Rehman has been suspended for 12 weeks after testing positive for cannabis, the England and Wales Cricket Board announced on Wednesday.
The 32-year-old spinner failed a drugs test on August 8, following the Country Championship game against Nottinghamshire and will now be out of action until December 21, meaning he will miss Champions League Twenty20 matches with Sialkot.
"Somerset County Cricket Club fully supports the action taken by the ECB," said Somerset chief executive Guy Lavender.
"The club does not condone the use of illegal drugs in any circumstances and all Somerset players are made fully aware of this policy on a regular basis."
Rehman took 19 wickets in three Test matches against England last January when Pakistan swept the series 3-0 in Dubai and has a career haul of 81 wickets at an average loss of 28.
"I apologise to my family, the PCB, the ECB, Somerset County Cricket Club, my team-mates and my fans," said a remorseful Rehman.
"It was an error of judgement on my part that will cost me dearly and I would like it to be a lesson to all others in sports elsewhere.
"I will do my best to stay fit and focused during my suspension, and God willing, will be available for selection for the India series should the Pakistan Cricket Board see it fit for me to be selected."

NYPD Limited Passengers on Some Subway Platforms
As riders flooded back into the New York City subway system Monday morning, officials borrowed a tactic from other cities to try to avoid accidents: they limited the rate of passengers boarding subway platforms.
In at least two subway stations — the 96th Street station on the Nos. 1, 2, 3 lines and the Marcy Avenue stop on the J, M, Z — police regulated the flow of passengers onto platforms, Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Joseph Lhota said Monday morning.
The reason: the risk that overcrowding at some of the subway's oldest and narrowest platforms could endanger riders.
"The bottom line is I can't put too many people on the platform," Lhota said. "We needed to do something before someone gets pushed onto the tracks." No accidents of that kind had been reported on Monday.
The MTA and the police department may take a similar approach for the Monday afternoon and evening rush hour, when the subway system ordinarily handles an even larger crowd than earlier in the day.
The subway system ordinarily moves about 5.5 million riders per day, but it is operating at less than full capacity on Monday. Trains are running at 10 minute headways — meaning there is an average wait of 10 minutes between trains, meaning more crowded cars and platforms.
Subway systems in other world cities, like London, already use some limits to control the number of passengers waiting to board on platforms. And overcrowding at some stations on the MTA's oldest subway lines, which can have more narrow platforms, is already a longstanding issue of concern.
Lhota and the MTA have urged commuters to try to stagger their routines, shifting morning and evening schedules to lessen the burden on the system — and on riders — of rush hour. That will include urging riders to be courteous and share space inside trains as well, he said.
