As most of us know MD has been around for a few years and so have I. Though now entering my third year of university I have entered an ethnography course. The project layout requires a ethnic group to be researched looked at analyzed and reported on. After talking to Mur I have got his approval in order to start my project here. OK here is a solid break down of what I need from everybody here. This is in essence a sign up sheet. In order to actually get behind MD and get beyond the character and into the actual people in MD I need quite simply interviews and ask people questions. I promise that if you don't want to answer any questions we can come back to it later or ju…

So, as most everyone knows, Mur does not like "Lore", or stories that we write that use story mode characters or concepts or anything that may in any way seem official. At least, that's the definition I've come up with. Fighting and stats (and somewhat less so, creatures) are unlimited; that aspect of the game is open-ended and has no set goal. Lands, alliances, wars, quests and items are only limited by the community, which is in turn essentially unlimited; those aspects are open-ended as well. So what is the set, predefined goal for players to achieve? Around when I started, I assumed it was either to become influential (RPC's were the sort of kings of the time, jus…

"I go to the gazebo and what do I see but the tree sitting there instantly!" O.K. so I am going to try to explain this without spoilers. But those who where around last Christmas are aware of the tree and the gift function. Now when I went there I saw a split second glance of it until it dissipated and replaced its self with the gazebo. Now I have been there many times and my cashed data is deleted daily which means the data must be fresh from the game. My personal theory since the MD birthday party is that Mur has lately been testing said system and may be using to re-use that system during the birthday party. That being said and if people don't think I have gone cr…

I have tons and tons of broken rituals. They starting accumulating when i set a LOTS and LOTS of trees at once. Now I have to do lots of scrolling to get to the "make new ritual" button. Besides, it's annoying to need to repeatedly unbind your giant forest of trees isn't it?

over the last couple days there has been a large amount of spammers registering on the forum, this morning alone i removed 73 accounts. There are still many more but i havent got enough time to deal with them, i will continue tonight. I recommend ANYONE with large amounts of accounts (3+) that have no post sto pm me asap, so that i do not ban your ip for being a spammer, this is because most of the spammers create a bunch of accounts then go to use them. thank you

TC is broken in many ways. This topic though is not about how broken this is, its about something a lot more important. Many young players or even some old ones find TC competitions as a way to get entrance into places that would normally be off limits for them. Despite the fact that when you carry a torch you cant do anything inside the land, you can always just wait inside it untill the competion ends and then you are free to do whatever you like. Also the draining ap system to not allow you to move fast is also broken. You can use 1 free credit and just move on like you have the required ap again. So people can take a torch and run like hell. Another thing is that the …

In the past week, two of the Liberty's Lib Army have given away WPs. Mighty Pirate Lib39 749 N/A No Details 30/11/10 21:07:38 Yoshi Lib40 738 N/A No Details 28/11/10 01:07:59 As far as I am aware, none of these alts are played as a character. From what I know about the Lib Army, Liberty gave control of them over to Yrth. Yrth, as king, can grant WP codes to players to award to others, but why would he give these codes to alts? And why different alts? O.o I am not making any accusations, but bringing up something I see as fishy, and perhaps someone can enlighten me if there isn't anything fishy going on.

So, I was bored earlier today. I was looking through all the links at the top of the MagicDuel page, and noticed the Treasury link. And within that link, there was the Artisan's Treasury. Currently it has 130 unspent credits. I would like to propose that the treasury be handed over to BFH, so that it could be used as a source of rewards for the Magicduel Facebook page, instead of having to give away our own creatures, and resources.

As many of you have noticed, a certain individual had used the word "gay" as a form of insult on the Moodpanel. In reaction to this, others have blown up and responded to this form of "insult." This post is in response to both parties, for they are both EQUALLY WRONG. Being "gay" is not an insult. For either party to take think this, is just disgusting. Those who have endured years of torment for their sexual preference should be admired, not pitied, or made fun of. They chose to be outwardly DIFFERENT. They could have hidden their desires and done things the "normal" way, but they hadn't. They chose the hard life, and that life means they are happier. For those of …

I joined MD in September and the avatar page had a perfect avatar for me. I was not able to access the shop at the time, so I hoped and prayed it would not be purchased before I could acquire it. I do not know if it was purchased, but around the end of September or beginning of October my entire level 0 avatar collection was shuffled (apparently due to a bugfix) and it was gone. I recently opened the level 1 avatar shop, and I already spent at least $35 credits shuffling with no success finding the missing avatar. I am hoping someone will find it and help me acquire it. The image is a man in a robe (and sandals I think) walking to the left, wearing a knapsack and…

I am treading near the edge in some of my quest creations. Thought this would be a good place to discuss. The issue is finding a balance between being totally unique and creative, and trying to fit into the MD realm and it's rich imagery. Step one was using MD figures in my riddles - Drachs, birds, Windy's Pub, lore guards, etc. This is balanced against making up the distant realm of "Queen Esmerelda" as one of my prior abodes. I mingle it a bit having a Knator mentor in the distant land of my birth that was a refugee from MD. (see my papers). Step two is the back-story for my lost path adventure. There is a Princess and Imperial soldiers that are shadows of Mar…

I am simply curious as to how the community as a whole views scheduling of events. I admit there is a courtesy to it, but it isn't like people are all vying for the same day to hold their event. As far as I can see, people have it fairly spaced out. Now, when it comes to continuous events, such as Story Night for example [it was the only one I can come up with off the top of my head], wouldn't that hold... 'scheduling' rights of sorts? Considering that the events are always planned a good month or more in advance, I think that people would at least hold courtesy to people's events, correct? In my experience, I have always spoken to people about their events [when I h…

From the mood panal apophys about Orvid Gold coin (31) Little pebbles Silver coin (86) On a young mp3? O_O This is not allowed. it is an alt account used to benifit its owners account, i think it may be I Am Bored.

A friendly reminder: do not carve into me. If you want to do anything to me - borrow a branch, a leaf, or a piece of bark, you absolutely must ask. I can't believe I have to post a board about this at all, but seeing as I bear the mark "Manda Rules!" now, I find it necessary to send out a warning. It is also a worse deed than you might imagine. When I was transformed into a tree, my memories became the wood and my brain was decentralized. Lose a branch, lose a memory. Get carved into, lose memory. That's all. I'll go back to trying to regrow wood over my new mark. Awi

Rules and restrictions - updated as the game grows - *Any repeated complain from multiple unique users will get some kind of unwanted action on you, try not to offend people, or to cause a mess in general *Repeated harrassment without reason of other players will not be tolerated. If you have a reason for that, that reason should be discussed with a moderator and if that moderator is unable to solve the issue then put up for voting on the forum. By harrasment we understand constant verbal abuse and moking. Repeated attacks or other ways are not considered punishable harrasment but can be brought up for judging if you think they should. so I whant know who else whan…

I would like to kindly ask the mp5 population (particularly people with large vitality) to refrain from using angiens to attack me. I'm at 34 million personal xp. About 2 days ago, I was at the cap. I have not attacked since then. Overnight today, I gained 4 million xp by idling at the GoE with non-damage defenses. As you will know if you do attack me, I in fact pretty much always have a non-damaging defense ritual set up, usually one that gives xp loss. Considering this, and the fact that XP is harder to lose now with the GoS emptied, especially with my low max vit of 61k, I'm worried. If you see me, feel free to attack me with damage, lifestealing, or non-dam…

Well today after six unsuccessful attempts to enter the correct security code, I got the following: [img]http://www.robcutler.com/KYimage.png[/img] luckily that let me slip right in Cutler PS I just had to share this since one of the earlier security codes was NO and it didn't accept it.

As the title says, I want feedback: what was good, what was bad, what needs to be improved, what needs to be kept. At the end I will post my own opinion as well.

This notice is for all those participating in Story Night. [I didn't want this mugging up the Story Night Post nor the LS spot in the forums and.. yeah. If the Mods think it appropriate to move it, please do.] This Story Night Session [10/20/10] was a bit hectic as you know. However, that does not excuse you from following certain things that the organizers of the event have set out to do. We set such things out for your benefit, but will certainly be okay [as much as it pains myself], with having the few who don't want the certain benefits not get that treatment. Story Night is needing your stories not just for presenting them in case of being unable to attend, b…

For the last few weeks or whatever, I've been watching and involved in the Necrovion rebellion, and have noticed a problem with the rebel system in general; if one is to rebel, they can't actually do anything without the help of Mur. The only thing that has gotten done throughout the Necrovion rebellion is bickering that hasn't gotten anybody anywhere, and Necrovion remains stagnant. If all GG citizens were to rebel tomorrow, would it actually get anything done? Or could Yrth simply say "Meh, I don't need you people" and continue his business? So, I propose that either the rebel system is changed or taken out until such changes can be made. Discuss/suggest, but don'…

Well, I try to avoid put it public, but this guy making a lot of fun of the game system. This soon of the b*** is the ONLY reason why Head Contest is delaying for more than a week. Some people will say that I am doing this just to win HC, I don't care for this lying anymore. I am doing this because of the HIGH disrespect that this guy have, not just with me, but with everone doing HC. I will not arque, just see my screens shots. And please, don't disrespect my little inteligence, tell me that he (or she/it) have a lot of friends from same country in MD. Sorry, but the screens shots is too big, I need to compact.

I would like the community's opinion on how they would like a possible Legend Night to be done. From what I know, the controversy last time I formulated an idea about this, it was because it was naming new vets as Legends, or such? Anywho. The two options that I have now, are the following: Make Legend Night about speaking of past legends, people who have gone, people considered as legends still in MD, etc. Or.. Make Legend Night about the people choosing new legends and writing about them in an unofficial capacity so as to present writer and winner with a reward. But then there is the fall between of doing both, however, I am not completely sure of how to inte…
