I did read this announcement: [quote] [color="#CCCCCC"]Ann. 1984 - [2011-08-16 07:12:27 - Stage 10][/color] Land leaders are requested not to interfere with the shared tools by placing any land laws to govern their use. The tools are meant to be grabbed by anyone regardless of land and further changes to the way they will be available are still pending. It is too soon to have any land specific regulations regarding shared tools. [/quote] But I do have a question anyway. Since there will be shared tools, like wood-chopping ones are available at the moment, herb basket too (not sure is anything else ready in Ravenhold yet). Is there a minimum of resources that shou…

This topic is just to get community input and see if anyone would actually like to see this event run ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING CAN BE CHANGED! I would love some better weapon suggestions Disclaimer: The suspects are just people that everyone recognizes for right now, they can be easily changed. Second Disclaimer: It's late for me, and I'm probably not going to explain this well. Also, this is my first attempt at doing anything, so we'll see how this turns out. I've been thinking up a way for everyone to play a game of mutated Clue up in the MDA lands. Here's what I've got so far. Set up: Oh noes! Brulant was happily wandering through the MDA lands when he was …

We are a relatively small community, and we all like secretly planning our events and such. So I suggest we start using what we have at our disposal, The Calendar! quite simply iv cleaned it up to remove the 5 million birthdays (which should still show at the bottom on the day i think) and changed it so there is just one calendar now. This makes it much easier to view and see events. I have added Tranquility Days as a recurring event so that they are visible. I ask you all to add any events you are planning, or have planned. This means that you can "reserve" that day, or at least have it open so everyone knows you are doing something on that day. It doesn't mean anyon…

This morning I discovered that the avatar I'm currently using was not an original one. [b]ID: [/b]589 [b]Author: [/b]Lord Beta Wolfeyes (see attached image) Below, the url of the original one: http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs41/f/2009/029/8/0/Devil_in_a_suit_by_staino.jpg I sent an e-mail to contact@magicduel.com and returned the avatar to the shop. lashtal

I had a conversation today with someone who asked me why I don't use alts to help collect resource orders. Personally, I find the idea unappealing because it takes something away from my role and gameplay. But, to be fair, I am going to try an experiment with resources and alts just to see if it helps. Of course, this issue is coming to light because of the introduction of the cauldron and recipes. Lumber and branches and sawdust have been available for almost a year but now, all of a sudden,lots of people want lots of resources. There are some who are willing to sell any resources at a higher price than the guilds because they have them and the guilds are swamped …

I realised that just me thinking of all implications of somethins is not enough (lol), sometimes i need to share it for the others to understand it right. You were used with wishpoints as highly valuable, unachievable rewards. I say unachievable because lets be real about it, there were achievable by a low number elite only. " My unannounced plans " - add a buffer of about 10 wishpoints to be distributed without a real merit or CHEATABLE. - add a buffer of similar number of wishes in the wish shop to dilute the offer there and keep real powerfull wishes for deeper levels. these two balance eachother and will make wishpoints taste known to new and old player equ…

Is it alt abuse - a punishable offense - to create an item using WP from an alt and then give that same item to main character? I am asking because obviously because of active-day WPs there are now lots of item requests going to Crafters, some from alts requesting items which would be created specifically for their main. I would prefer to know what rules, if any, this would violate - instead of opinions. If it is not clear, then please open this up for discussion of opinions. [sup][edit - Paste from Rules and Restrictions][/sup] [quote][list] [*]You can have multiple accounts, to try out story, to experince new ways of play etc ..., however if you are detecte…

I've noticed that several WPs were given for this quest. I would like to READ the stories the winners submitted and also the stories other players sent. No need to ask why. You all know why. Btw: the sooner the better because the later you post them the more suspicious I will be that you invented it now!

I want sasha lilias to be banned for at least 1 month and also her WPs to be removed. Also, what she has done needs to be un-done. Why? Cause of this: [attachment=3098:sasha_idiot.png] This is what the wish says: [b]Change location subtitle[/b] Allows you to change a subtitle on a given location. The new title will remain forever untill someone else changes it and for at least 4 days. With this you can mark locations to support your role, such as pubs, markets, themed gathering places, mark historic locations to remember an important event for all future players, organise group activities, support role play situations, etc.[col…

The forum will be upgraded to a new greater version. This is a big change and therefore may cause some problems, bugs or issues. During an upgrade, it will give lots of errors, and possibly not be avalible during the upgrade. If the forum is down for longer than an hour, please email me at [council] by replacing contact with Chewett. The time-frame for the upgrade is unknown since there are a lot of requests for this new upgrade. I shall post any updates regarding this here.

I want to complain about alts gaining wishpoints for active days. It's just highly abusable. [color=#A52A2A][b]I agree that mains should be rewarded somehow for their activity on the game, but not the alternate accounts.[/b][/color] [color=#FF0000]First:[/color] This will lead to severe abuse of MD Mechanics. Alts helping mains and mains helping alts. [quote] [b]Exchanging WishPoints between you. WP should be rewarded only for good reasons.[/quote][/b] That rule will be broken sooner or later. [b][quote] You can have multiple accounts, to try out story, to experience new ways of play etc ..., however if you are detected that you are using them just to help one o…

So... Considering there is more of you than there is me, I decided to make a forum topic about this. Especially since the newer guilds seem to be gaining more people, and.. well. It's hard to keep up. Basically: Mur would like ALL guilds and their land Kings/Queens from hence forth to keep a private list of all GUILD items [not personal] with their IDs. This means, items like water buckets, axes, stone detecting devices, heat jars, etc. What I need from you guys, is to make a list. I need this from EVERY guild member. Unless the guild leader already has a list of who has what, then please, send it to me. But anywho. The list needs to have item ID, who currently ha…

First off, no, i will not tell you how to cast it, but everyone can, and i will delete or remove anything saying how to cast the silence spell. Lately there has been far too much abuse of this spell, and that is to stop. The intent of the spell is to silence players who are swearing/spamming/advertising other games so that they can't do it anymore, the spell is ONLY to be cast if there is NOBODY else with given abilities to deal with the matter. Such people would be LHO's or RPC's generally. And since there is usually one of those around, there isnt usually a need to ever cast the spell. Henceforth we will be employing a line of punishment for players that abuse thi…

Just a passing thought, really. I would like to go for mp6 HOWEVER... -If you decide to become my adept, you must NOT leave your current protector to be with me. You will stay with Burns, Amoran, Indyra or whomever is mp6 currently. It is not fair to them to leave them just to be with me. -I take precious care of my Adepts, but also will hold responsibility for you.If you mess up, you'll get an angry Curi. Please keep in mind that I am not expecting this at any time soon. I would like to gather adepts as they come to me, and if some how I become mp6, then that will be a blessing. Thank you.

Western Union Tombola: All credit purchases , payed by WU, from start of this year for the next several month will be considered tickets for this tombola. This form of payment is even less used than PBC. There were just a couple of such credit purchases ever. Other similar methods such as moneygramm will count on this too, but first ASK if they do to be sure. New rule: only amount allowed for a ticket on this particular tombola is $100.00 , larger payments will count as more tickets based on amount. Large discounts that i hope they cover the WU tax on your side. ONLY DIRECT PAYMENTS TO ME ARE CONSIDERED VALID, not the PBC WU option. For details you …

So, apparently the recent deaths turned MD into a bunch of hysterical people. Time to destroy some myths and share some ideas. There is a kill spell. Nobody has it. Except the person who has the Stone Dagger. The Stone Dagger is an item that can kill a person. However it has a really long cooldown.This means that the kings+Z were NOT ALL killed with that dagger. IMO Z was killed just to create confusion and mass hysteria. It fits too well. Me and Awi are NOT next to die. Why? Because of the above reason for Z's murder. I suggest you concentrate on resurrecting the kings. Everything else is just...a jest.

I have been talking with one of the younger players about the viscosity of certain newbie areas. Places like the Underground have a high newbie traffic. But VERY low traffic in general. Reason being a certain game quest. This player showed a concern that it would take hours to get through the underground because of the incredibly high locaton AP. So, I was thinking, why not make the AP viscosity MP4+ only? MP3s don't need to suffer something as silly as AP Restrictions that others have to. It is the learning stage, and waiting an hour to go one scene is a bit much, right? ~Seigheart

On the thread about the Sentinels being binned some of us broached the fact that Jester no longer seems to be a citizen of his land. The thread was closed for going offtopic. Fair enough if I went offtopic, I apologise. However, I believe the point stands, so I am bringing it up here to discuss it in it's own right. [quote]closed, you guys all went offtopic. Who cares if Jester isnt part of his land, Its his citizens to worry about, if they indeed care.[/quote] On your view that it is only for Jester's citizens to worry about Chewy, I totally disagree. You or anyone else can say that Loreroot is sticking their nose in. However, my comments are made on the basis of b…

The Meeting of the Roads is part of No Man's Land and is represented by no man. Today, I am speaking for the Meeting of the Roads. I spend a lot of time there and I hope some of you will be spending more and more time there as well. There are two memory stones which can be harvested from the Meeting of the Roads. In the time since I learned about memory stones, the Meeting of the Roads has consistently had 0/2 stones. (At this very moment, I notice 0.25/2 has regenerated. I'm guessing this fraction of a number is because of new changes). I have been disheartened to see the available resources harvested to depletion with such immediacy. Depleted resources are now r…

[quote name=Announcements] Ann. 1896 - [2011-07-09 03:33:48 - Stage 10] Memory stones functionality is done. They work in the following way: If you have a memory stone, and a spell, you can use all the casts of that spell at once to "memorize" that spell into the stone, enchanting it. The memory stone will then transform into an enchanted stone, named after the stored spell. This is a usable, tradeable item. When someone uses it, it will grant that person a limited number of casts from the stored spell, till the casts get consumed or for a period of 6 month. When casts run out or 6 month pass, the spell will vanish from that persons spells. Memory stones are a resource …

Those of you that were doing quests or had a "seed" creature and this public release of this very rare creature affects you in any way, i am willing to exchange the quest reward or current creature by an other one. At this point I know only of Grido being the only one to have the seed/Toxicodendrite before it was released and Zleiphneir that was working on a quest that might have involve it, but contact me if it is the case, or post here.

Jester has agreed to hold a King's Court, or, for him, a "Jester's Court" alpha version at June 9, Day 159, 1:00 Server Time. The location will be in front of Necrovion Gate. What is planned so far is the following: Quest sponsorhips Complaints Information Discussions. Based on the turn out of this Alpha version, more ideas will be presented including tweaks and further commentary on how things have gone. Things do not have to go in the order presented, but would be announced at the King's Leisure when each segment shall begin. All are welcome, and are asked to be in a courteous manner throughout. Thank you, and hope to see you then.

So, after finishing my Techincal exams, Iv prettymuch finised up detailing all the announcements in my views. Im wondering how everyone would like to see them. The format im working with them at the moment is useful for editing and stuff, But not very good for you guys to see. I was considering uploading it to one of my sites, and coding a nice little interface that lets you search by date, ID, and catagory. anyone have any specific preferences?

- As a king, threatening you will quit, regardless of reason, means you don't see your role for how important it is. [color="#FF0000"]It will cost you one penalty point.[/color] - You think kings/yourself are just a WP dispenser and nothing more? [color="#FF0000"]You are incompetent. Kings should use their limited resources in a creative but also [b]proactive way[/b], meaning sponsorships, "kingly" rewarded activities, initiative to DO things, etc, not just wait for others to ask you for the wp codes.[/color] - You feel like you are waiting for "Buttons" so you can do "Stuff"? [color="#FF0000"]Reality update, use what you have, convert authority into actions beca…

When I first joined MagicDuel, I loved it. That unique experience was what made me decide to be part of the change. I decided to help everyone in need. With that goal in mind, I joined Live Help Operators team and indeed I fulfilled part of my goal. Although, for me that was not enough, I felt I could do more. Knowing my previous intentions of been an MP6, Fyrd Argentus decided to help me reaching my Goal. He stepped down from mp6 and recommended me to his adepts and worshipers, thing I will always remember and have in mind. Moreover, I talked with all the current MP6 of that time and they gave me advises and helped me a Lot. On November 9, 2010 with the support of…
