* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: This is actually an incredibly important game - for starters, it effectively made standard the idea of letting the player have full control over the appearance of their avatar in [=MMOs=], which even bled into many non-[=MMOs=] - but the way [=NCSoft=] shut it down led to one of the biggest preservation panics in the history of interactive entertainment, as the original game [[DefunctOnlineVideoGames simply couldn't be experienced any longer]], and the loss of the servers took immense amounts of character work with it. There were various emulation projects that attempted to put together a semblance of the game as it was, but with limited success. However, this all changed in [[https://massivelyop.com/2019/04/15/score-city-of-heroes-emulator-leak/ April 2019]], where news emerged that a fully functional server had been running for the past six years, but was kept secret from the world at large. The code of that server leaked within several days of this discovery, and several unofficial servers are now up. [=NCSoft=] has publicly disapproved of the leak, but doesn't appear to have taken active effort to pull servers down yet.

** Miller, Bianco, and several others had attracted enough investors that they had begun the process of ''buying Paragon Studios outright'' from NC Soft. For unknown reasons, the purchase fell apart almost at the last minute (Miller has said it was literally down to one NC Soft executive refusing to sign which killed the deal).

* DevelopmentGag: A long history of them.
** Just one example. A long-standing bug was that, if the game couldn't find the proper model to display for a hostage, it would use the first model on the list -- a [[ThoseWackyNazis 5th Column]] [[MechaMook Mek Man]]. Fast forward several issues to two 5th Column {{Mook}}s discussing whether disguising robots in hard light holograms will work. And in an example of [[{{Irony}} Cosmic Irony]], said dialogue happened in the issue which broke ''that'' bug (now instead of a Mek Man there is another model, a 5th leader).
