Consider this as a formal complaint against the AL "One Man, Many voices" organizers. True, AL should be possible and should impact the game play of others. So, considering that: altars are one of the top most important parts of MD directly blocking character improvements by getting/exchanging current creatures and by blocking the stats from the currently available creatures there has been no progress on this for a too long time in this AL 3 months already since last post the altars have been stopped for no reason - as there is no info in AL yet as for the altars to be blocked . in the AL timeline you could have…

Please do not post ITT unless you are posting logs from seedwalks. Logs from 12/8/13 Oak: [spoiler] : Rophs curls up in Awi's roots and waits for more people to arrive Rophs: Inside a dead tree Rophs: Not a dead one, just sleepy Rophs: Why won't he wake up? : Rophs quietly mourns Awi's deep slumber : Change dunnos : Rophs notices Change : Rophs waves to Change : Rophs gets up from the roots and brushes himself off Rophs: Who tells a story first? Change: Not it? : Rophs nods I'll tell a story first then. walks over to the Oak and sits down facing it cross legged Rophs: *turns to Change* What should my story be about? Change: Hmm Change: Growing up : Rophs nods…

Please don't forget Established Housings, it's a land in its own right. No real input as to the rest of the topic, -0.5 makes sense to me, sent some corresponding stuff to you DD, which isn't directly related to the thread.

This is for the passionate and skilled people out there... a new level of MD I am just a man, and chew is also no batman either, we are trying to foster the existence of this wonderful community, to keep its values and hopefully to attract more interesting people. As you know, this is a dictatorship, without dictators, a social sandbox, a trial towards self discovery, a place where crazy means good, where skills are your invisible rank, a place where nothing is fair but just makes things spicier and challenging in a strange way. Each one sees what he is searching in MD, a mirror of himself that he eventually has to face, there is no predictable thing you could see …

This here is really a call for public research, but the title shall make sense after a little while. I was wondering whether those who took an interest in the topic of death in MD would like to publicize their findings. I, on my part, will speak of an experiment related to death and maybe incite some spirits. A couple of years ago, I was suggesting a rework of death in md, because back then I was against the idea of reviving. I looked at it as a nefarious religious influence that went against the basest realities. Once dead...well, we'll take care of your grave in the years to come. Or maybe we'll forget. In games, this revival thing was extremely useful…

So as we all know heads are coming off the island I (MRF) happened to get some I get messeges asked to give them I of course would like to keep them.

If I wanted to have someone draw me an avatar, is there any way to have me obtain it directly from them, or would I have to shift through the avatar store until I see it once it's done and submitted?

I'll try to keep it to the point. This is half me thinking out loud, half me wanting to find out if anyone else has opinions on this. Do you think any specific mechanical aspect of MD needs to be "revamped"? One thing I notice frequently about other games is that developers keep game features "rolling", they adapt them to the player base and the way the player base works - they keep moving, forcing players to adapt. It brings novelty from the devs, but also forces novelty from the player base. MD feels very stagnant in this sense, and at least to me, it appears that a good chunk of features is out of tune with the current playerbase, and a lot of new features ap…

Um...I created the new form for the stone tablet combiner in Loreroot recently, but I’m not sure about how memory stones turn into stone tablet, so can you guys share some thoughts and ideas with me? or which one do you prefer? Here are my concept ref & sketches of the Stone Tablet: A) Break the memory stones completely and pour into a mold to form its final shape with the power of the combiner. You can carve spell/text on the flat surface just like a traditional stone tablet. B) Crush the stones into small pieces and make it like a gravel mosaic, similar to Dhyone’s idea. C) Melt the stones(with heat?) and squash them into one single stone tablet, but you …

*reads fang's topic* I want to have a theory, too, and be famous! (some time later) I have a theory! Now let's see if it makes me famous (highly unlikely)... ________________________________ My theory is that the angien egg at tge Shrine has travelled thrre from another place and...well, that's enough. The egg is capable not only of travelling at a whim, but can choose the location... My argument is based on the fact that the angien egg hovers, and its continuous pressure creates a hole in the ground. The wind's sanctuary has clear imagery for those who haven't travelled to the shrine. As for how it does that, my ijitial idea was that i…

This wonderful waste of forum resources is me throwing out incomplete ideas, they might not be accurate, they might not be coherent, they will likely be nonsensical and very esoteric. Do you like research? Good luck, here be dragons. snowball effect is like when principle of Entropy ever increases in our (real world) universe maybe the butterfly effect is somehow involved, so many things being similar and different (principle of Transposition)? group spirit and Imagination: when people believe that something that isn't there is there it sortof becomes there e.g. Awiiya's seeds... and wiiya being at the seeds is Transposition of the group spirit's Imagination? same thing …

How we look at time is basically like this, no? : d/V. Basically, it's about movement over a distance. If an objects doesn't travel, time doesn't 'pass'. Now, we might say time still passes, by looking at other objects that move, but measure it in relation to the object that stands, and you have zero. So how do we measure time in MD? Can't do it by looking at the sun that 'moves', and bet on the day-night cycle. If you measure it relative to the moment you get 1 more AD, you have a 'day' there, but we can all agree time is measured here in relation to an exterior system of reference, right? What happens in MD that we can take as reference point? For examp…

My character Rophs currently has many goals, one of the largest being sailing west to find the landmass that is located there. Rophs thinks that although freeing the Empty Aramors would be an interesting event that it would be wiser to learn WHY thery came, WHERE they came from, and WHO sent them. He wants to sail west to wherever the Empty Aramors are from and then possibly free the Empty Aramors. Goals related to sailing west Fix the Ivory Lighthouse to ensure a safe return (Topic here: http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/15126-wp-quest-get-the-ivory-lighthouse-working/#entry147499) Gather a crew for the seafaring ship left behind by Cryxus and his pirate crew …

I'm splitting this from [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/11486-connections-to-the-realm/"]this[/url] because I really do think it's an interesting idea and want to see if there's any discussion to be had about it. [quote name='Brulant' timestamp='1327121612' post='101562'] I think it would be interesting to have a period of time that acts as a Masquerade. Everyone could be put into an illusion that, say, changes their name, hides their papers and inventory, removes their creatures, and otherwise "resets" their profile. No one would know who each other are after the reset takes place. Then, for that period of time, the game could be played as if everyone …

Some of you might remember this image I created it at the time as a visual representation of the web I had weaved among those participants my intuition pointed me to as I tried to follow it solely, with no rational involvement. The end result of that web, its beautiful climax, was Eon taking over Guerilla Golemicarum (you can see my response to that here, for context). Let me be clear, that was not my original intent though it pleased me greatly, and I capitalized on it, and I said certain things to dst to imply that it was my intent (she took the bait of course) so as to attempt to assure her disqualification from the following, as she'd be the one most able to…

Now that the day of tranquility is gone (that pesky day we had twice a month that disallowed anyone to attack on the 12th and 24th) I have been waiting for the $%@king day where we finally have some serenity, and I propose this would happen once a year. I suggest the date March 9th for personal reasons, to remind us of the day we lost our serenity < / 3

Greetings all, I've just been back active for almost a week now, since then I settled in Gates of Ages while occasionally taking a walk around No Mans Land and stopped at Paper Cabin for a while. I waited there, in case there were new players coming, but sadly, none of them came. I missed greeting new players, answering their questions, encouraging them. If I can add it, I miss the moment when I become a staff at Sparring Ground, helping all the new players. I understand that over time things will change, some come and go, but it seems like there are so many who leave but hardly anyone comes. Can anyone explain why? I'm sure there must be a way to solve this pro…

Formally requesting the Wiiya collector go into the Tool Guardians (Mallos') hands.I asked publically if any had the ability to harvest it aside from Rophs, and since none have answered i now assume that none can, or the few that can will not aid me.If Rophs somehow comes back online and can supply my Adepts then that works too.But anything short of that and my request stands, we need someone active to hold that Wiiya Collector, and i deem the Tool Guardian a perfect fit in both role and activity.

I was going through the AL once again, and I was wishing there was some version of it that would be less painful to read, especially for "bulk-reading" like most newcomers [should] do. In particular, its presentation in the interface is adapted for reading newly added fragments, but I would have liked a version where all fragments would be grouped by chapter, which was already proposed long ago [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/1439-side-story-adventure-log/page__view__findpost__p__7979"]here[/url] but was never done (at least not that I could find on the forum ...). So I made it: [attachment=3302:AL.pdf] I hope altering the order of events is not a sacril…

Been thinking of a creature of sorts that drains your stats every day (has this been talked about before? I don't know, link pls if so). I would enjoy hearing why something like this is a very bad idea and doesn't fit MD. Does it sound useless, untimely, boring etc? (the end goal would be for the mononoke to manifest in the realm)

I figure it'd be best to start a new topic for this. Anyone else wish they could participate in more tournaments, but "the rules" (heh, rules are for fools!) are holding you down? Let's brainstorm/discuss. My first thought was using head control to annul stats and tokens for everybody participating for the duration of any given fight or tournament, would that work? PS: In case it's unclear, you're free to run your quests however you like! Just want to put some ideas out.

Id like to ask everyone what their thoughts are on the main and sub connections between Golemus Golemicarum and Necrovion. There are no right or wrong answers, I simply wish to gauge the public perspective on this subject and compare it to my own. For a long time now I have felt that GG & Necro are connected in more ways than the obvious or the publicly known so, I feel this question has been long overdue and I eagerly await all replies. Thank you.
