Maybe I missed it. What happened to the online database of powers? The link used to be on the home page, right?

The UNTIL Super Powers Database book was published. I may be wrong, but I think the online versions are the beta/working copies, and once a book goes to press, the online version is taken down. This is speculation, since I've never had access to any of the online stuff, just the books.

I think the online database was for ideas that didn't make it into the published book. Plus, there were other links on the right hand side of the homepage that seem to have gone missing as well.

It's still there, the link is just a little hard to find. On the right of the main page, under Genre Pages, click the Champions logo. A selection of buttons will come up, click Online USPD. That will get you where you need to be.

Dr Lucky has the correct info -- or you can use this direct link (http://www.herogames.com/USPD/index.htm). :D

To clarify things for RadeFox and Kristopher, the Online USPD is a collection of powers contributed by fans, along with a few that couldn't make it into the book or that Steve came up with after publication. The most recent update is July 1; I did send in a collection more recently, but I'm starting to think it didn't arrive (it wouldn't be the first time).

It arrived just fine. I simply don't have time to drop everything and work on what you send me. The Online USPD is a low priority compared to the actual work of writing books and so on.

OK, Steve, 'scool. :D That was my other assumption; it was just taking longer than I would've expected (even with the huge number of entries I included), so I was just starting to wonder.

So that is why I have no reply for the two powers I sent (Purr Of The Neko and Sent Of The Skunk, both Animal Powers). I understand.

On the right hand side of the home page go to CHAMPIONS section

When the links (Speach bubbles) load up you will see the link to online USPD.

Hope that helps

Actually, you misunderstand. Mister Steve Long sends no replies to USPD posts: Either it appears on the next update and you are King of the Dance or it doesn't and you sulk with the underdogs in underdogland or whatever.

I usually try to send out a "thanx, I'll look at this later" reply when I get a submission.

Guess I just missed it, or happened to look in the few moments it wasn't there. That happens to me a lot...

Thanks.
