Internet's out for days and my post is trapped until I can find some way to move it from air-gapped to somewhere I can send it from... or just re-write the thing entirely. 

I have a 12-14 hour shift coming up in 3 days time though, so worst case scenario I guess I'll re-write the whole damn thing then.

Might mean I miss the deadline by a couple days though.

I've got my next post pretty much done, bar the coding edits.  But I'm down to mobile data at the moment as the internet is out at home until I have the time to make calls and get it fixed.

Rhodey is actively working with the US military.  Sam's a vet with no current ties.

As for Thor, he was back on Earth/Midgard after the second Thor movie.  I think he saw some value in them after the first Avengers movie, and let's be honest... even though he sees himself as more mighty than the others, let's not act like he isn't used to being more mighty than the Asgardians he fights alongside. 

You know comics are great when you get to write a scene between a Norse god and a psychic talking cosmonaut dog.@HenryJonesJr

To all those who have been considering cutting and running from this game...

Next Blue Beetle post to come in this weekend.  I've done a few large chunks of it so far, but they swung the roster lines around at work and I'm not going to have time to sit down and properly tie it all together until then.

Well before the deadline though... but, yeah.

Woops.@Hillan

Could be worse... could've done it in the IC.

So far I'm looking to tie together the "business world" and tech sides of one of these games, just as other people in the past have looked to establish the "magic/magick/magik" side of these universes.

I've always liked how each of the most brilliant minds of the Marvel and DC Universes have kind of had their own corners of expertise and their own differences which have made them their own people.  From Pym's instability, to Reed Richards insatiable need for knowledge and discovery.

Ted Kord's genius has seldom really defined him in most works and he's often a Batman-Lite business head/gimmick inventor who has amazing potential and has had issues of focus which have been his biggest obstacle when discovering that potential.  He's almost "too human" to be the person he could really be.  So I wanted to explore why that's the case, and wanted to give Ted something that other geniuses don't tend to have in order to better differentiate his mind from other Marvel/DC geniuses... hence the perfect eidetic/photographic memory thing.

In terms of influences, I've probably poached and pinched a bit from a lot of the previous similar games in the past.  The L-Pad reference in the first post quite blatantly came from one (or many) of @AndyC's runs on Superman in the past, which I expanded out with naming it's video chat software as LLL.  A lot of this will be reflecting back other events in the business side of this combined universe as we saw with how @Sep's Iron Man stuff has directly impacted K.O.R.D.  The character of Mike Ross from Suits will inform on a lot of what's come with Ted's perfect memory and using a brilliant but raw mind to dominate a new profession as well as my own class clown experiences in my own schooling, which probably impacted my decisions far more than I'm even willing to admit.

I'm stealing from everywhere!  Even obscure places you wouldn't think about!  I'm taking it!  It's like an homage only more blatant and hacky!

Dang y'all are killing me I'm still working on my first post lol@Archangel89

That was only my first one too, so you're not too far back.
