Cryo already knows this.
Some of you may remember, I joined you folks for a bit in your group. Actually, I saw the message about troubles getting the name/disbanding the Hero side and starting the villian side when I finally came back to CoH via CoV.
So, I logged on my BioHunter characters (one on every server) because of the new rule that if you don't log on every 3 or so months, you lose your name (BioHunter is a character I used in Beta but I have used/RPed him much longer than even when CoH came out). There were still quite a few characters on the roster. So, I didn't think much of it and went on to think hard about villians and stuff.
Well, recently, I've been getting into BioHunter a bit, mostly to play with low-Gurus (I have been trying to concentrate on 3 heroes and BioHunter hasn't been one of them atm, but we shall see). So, tonight, playing with Joe, Druid, SK, Surburban, and Bitter, Joe noticed my superhero group tag (Malice in Wonderland). He asked how many are in the group. I hadn't checked since last time, so I looked.
There was some guy named "Regal Lion", Lvl 10 and a messed up name , something like "Ahrmannnde Aand" (I know the Aand part is correct). A Lvl 13. Regal hadn't been on for 71 Days. "Aand" hadn't been on for 201 Days.
So, counting me, there were only 3 in the group. And *I* was Ringleader. The sense of power was heady (albeit non-existent really). I played a bit with the SG controls, having never really started an SG. Scheduled a Raid and earned prestige. After I had my small measure of fun, I found I could Kick the other two players, leaving only me.
After this, I Quit the group. The group, should be disbanded.
What this means to you folks is that you have your original group name back. It should be easy to quit the existing group and reform your old one, taking everyone along.
And yeah, I wouldn't mind joining your VG (although I am in one already and may even throw a second character into that pot). I got 6 heroes on Virtue, debating on erasing two. I got 5 villians, one empty slot I would like a Stalker to go. There are still one or two characters I may erase. I have even thought of making another villian version of Bio (I know Cryo has two), but this would be a more sane double-agent than hers. :)
Thing is, I am not sure which villian to join your group. Some of you may have seen my posting of pics/descrips in the villian thread and in my poll. Here is the poll, if you are curious and haven't gandered a look at my creations.

Which character would you think or prefer that would fit with your group? I would like an "innocent" opinion (such as, "That guy is cool! Let's have him!") and maybe an analysis. What I mean is, Cryo, from my RP, I realize, probably won't fit with some of my characters. Duke Doomsday is a Leader and likes to be on top. Members of my planned "Doomsday" family might fit in, but with tweaking and misguidedness (Heck, I may just scrap that concept, but it does have some unique aspect to it). Not sure if the Demon CEO would fit, but again, it's not impossible.
Now before you mention, "Bring back BioHunter, he was cool." I would like to state, his initiation into the group did not really feel right for his character. You see, he is not totally evil. Sometimes he can be "insane", but he is mostly a neutral agent; a balancer that works for either side. A Bounty Hunter (think Boba Fett). He also has a bit of honor to him, although he can be cruel. Almost like a Samurai. I sorta knew where the RP was going and was torn between an OOC want to JOIN the group and an IC need to be truthful to the character's intent, which I admittedly failed at during the initiation. There were many times, if you remember, I almost just walked out. I probably should have. Not your fault; it just did not mesh well with the character.
Anyway, I am glad I could help you all and look forward to any communication from you folks. Have fun being evil, I know I am! :naughty:
