Pretty much everything you've done since the last HMD has been fantastic. Norman's downfall was very well played-out as was his incarceration, and you've done a great job with the many ripples it's sent through the community. Friend Electro is hilarious, I sometimes stalk Felicia's threads with Eddie, and I really want to praise the complexity and menace you're giving Harvey.
Two things- the over-a-year of buildup to Norman's downfall was great, but I think you should have had more time between the posting of the ooc announcement and the IC unfolding of the drama. As it was, organizing things felt a bit rushed with everything happening right then. I also want to ask about the Sentry's power level. This is the game where Superman got nerfed to the point where he could be killed by Carnage. Why is Bob still able to remodel the Moon when he's angry

First off, thank you very much. :) I'm very happy to hear... well, all of that, I'm glad what I'm doing is paying off!
Now, to address your points:
- I definitely agree with you, I need to get better about posting OOC notices more in advance. It's definitely been a failing of mine, and I'm working on getting more organized in that respect because I tend to underestimate how much time is going to be needed to get certain things going.
- In terms of power-nerfing, it really depends heavily on how specifically they're nerfed. If I'm not mistaken, Superman's invulnerability was taken away so that made him more susceptible to getting killed; that specific power-down was the choice of the player, not imposed by the mods. Some characters have been apped with "umbrella" powers that encompass other powers (ie, one power that gives them their other powers), but still does count as one power. Bob's Molecule Manipulation is an example of this because it does literally alter his physiology (allowing him the super strength, speed, etc.); but

Thanks Gabbie. The specifics won't be necessary, I'll take your word for it. We've had characters like the Endless or Lucifer retain much of their powers before due to them not throwing their abilities around outside of major plots; I guess Bob is a case like that?
Yeah, essentially. Bob is a character who in his canon, though he has ridiculous powers, tended to kind of hang back and just show up to exist in a panel, so it's easy not to overdo the powers he kept. On the same token, there's certain powers he needs to keep for certain aspects of his personality to be relevant so it's a delicate balance.
I can understand that, considering (from what I've heard) a lot of the character is based around the threat of him losing control and accidentally killing... everything. So with that in mind, I think you're doing a good job with the balance.
I have very little to say except I always love following Electro's conversations with people. I'm always entertained on some level. I like that "hurp allison :|" bit when she's all snared up in trouble for stealin' shit or somethign WOW I AM SO UTTERLY ON TOP OF DETAILS JUST GO WITH IT.
And I know I keep saying I'mma get at your Felicia and then never delivering but I ain't even playin' around this time
