    I'll play enough to get a cover, but definitely not going for a top 10 finish

    I usually run slice 4 for PvE, which would start at 11pm Thanksgiving, which doesn't interfere with the holiday. It's not really a holiday weekend for me, so the rest of it is business as usual.

    So yes, high likelihood I'll be playing.

    I'm not American, so it's not a holiday for me... but it's still a busy weekend. I'll play, but not as intensively as I would have on weekdays.

    Same. First, I usually take 11 pm est slice (4th). Second, I don't believe in shopping on Thxgiving Thursday, and I cannot in good conscience go out shopping on that day to support retailers open on that day. There is a time for business and a time for family.

    I used to read Ghost Rider comics, so this is one of the marvel characters I'm REALLY interested in adding to my roster. So to those I end up competing w/ in slice 4 for 3 covers, I bid you good hunting. icon_twisted.gif

    way too much family stuff. will be at the in-laws Wednesday thru sunday. if I can snipe a late bracket great. if not, unfortunately this one will lag behind on my roster.

    edit:
    Being international, they have to do the obvious: set an arbitrary schedule and stick to it. New release have been kicking on Thursday for several months now.
    I thought they had that arbitrary schedule releasing a character every 2 weeks. it seems odd that they took an extra week since x23, like they went out of their way to place it thanksgiving. I know it will benefit some - I'm just not one of them.

    I'm already crying about trying to find space for 4 new additions on my cramped roster so I think I'll be happy to pass this event and pick up GR in future.

    The fact that no one was around to mind the store while folks were over at NYCC sorta tells ya how tiny D3's operation really is. . .

    This has been mentioned a few times but it looks like it would be worthwhile to point out again. D3 Go! (publisher of MPQ) and Demiurge (developer) are two different companies in two different states.

    When a couple of us D3 Go! folks are out at a convention, Demiurge (who develop the game and take care of the servers) are still at work minding the store.

    Not a fan of my family, so will be able to do clears. Best timing for a 4* release ever. At least no-one is complaining about it being released while they are at work/school this time.

    Not everyone in the world celebrates Thanksgiving
  • I didn't see this answered in the Marvel Article but is this new story event going to be like existing competitive story events, or will it be like Growth Industry?

    I appreciate the reply. I thought D3/Demiurge had like a parent/subsidiary relationship that is legally separated for legal liability reasons. That's why I thought they were the same company (i.e. same management, ownership, etc.).

    Those of other cultural traditions will be following their own way, and those with service jobs (some vital, most not) will be working as usual.
    Yes, the waiter that will be serving me Thanksgiving dinner will probably be carrying food in one hand, and grinding this event with the other... so unfair...

    It's also deer season. Perhaps DS/Demiurge just have a soft spot for Bambi. Hard to shoot and grind at the same time icon_razz.gif
    ha ha. not the shooting that takes your time away - its everything that has to happened after shooting that would put a kink in grinding.
