Just a quick note about Hyde.
He's got about 160K SK to go before he dings 220 and I've put him into perk reset (a SERIOUS perk reset ... I hate SENSE).
This means:
1) He's becoming a bigger gimp every day (shut up Mud and others, I already know what you're going to say ... "but he CAN'T be a bigger gimp"

2) On the day after he finishes his perk reset, he will ding 220 so I can start doing what the perk reset was for. That means at least 2-3 weeks if not more before I ding him. If ... I ... can ... hold ... back. Maybe more.
3) Given that the rumor mill has LE coming out for Christmas (only rumors ofc) I may -leave- him in perk reset if he turns out to still be fairly useful. So Hyde is in semi-retirement for quite some time. I would be pretty disgusted if LE came out with some new great SENSE buff and I had to do this all over again.
4) Many know that my accounts are currently in "cancelled" status. I am paid into the middle of next April. So don't assume just since Hyde hasn't logged on that he's gone already.
5) If I can get the stomach up for it, I'll be levelling the shade during this time. But ... my stomach doesn't process SK well.
