New Ideas

[quote]You can edit items in general but this item already has its assigned owner. Only Muratus del Mur (ID:1028) can edit this item.[/quote] Currently, the first person to "use" a usable item becomes the sole owner and editor of an item. This causes issues when, for example here, someone previously has also got the item editing ability, and "bound" it to them. Then, when you aquire the item, and wish to code on it, you cannot because they "own" the scripting rights. But, on the other hand, you dont want to give the item as a quest, and give them the ability to see all the code. Here i suggest being able to "lock" an item script. This would mean that no one could ed…

As you might remember, i'm a big fan of balance. And a big opponent of being off balance to maximize personal gain on the back of newbies. So, there i sit around, pondering what all big fighters have in common, and it strikes: VE and Combo! All the big, evil fighting guys have a lot of VE and a lot of Combo, which they need for a multitude of things these days. Few of them value balance, because balance means that you can't hit on the weak targets. Therefore, i a new attempt to make balance attractive, i propose that combo boost gets directly connected to the balance of the user. I'd imagine that connection as rather simple function that decreases the size of the co…

I'd like to propose a new button that re-synchronizes the regeneration timer without refreshing the whole page. I think to remember that Mur once said that refreshing the whole page puts quite a strain on the server, and i bet there are quite a few people who do that regularly just because they want their timer to be correct for various activities.

As trading for credits seems to be legal (http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/9281-stopping-buying-things-with-credits) non-paying players are handicapped - also paying members with massive balance accumulated by high regular contributions. I suggest implementing new feature - balance transfer to send specified number of credits between players' accounts. To prevent massive alt abuses it would be activated deep in extra features section and all regular alt checks for transactions would apply. Please comment

It would be nice to be able to rearrange existing defense rituals, say by a click-and-drag function or move arrows or such. This way you could move your favorite defense ritual to the front without having to erase all the others out there. Present a batch of trees in the park, then a hard defense when you venture forth, then easily go back to trees when training... You could define a block of 20 ritual A and a block of 20 ritual B then rearrange them to alternate A-B-A-B- instead of having to define 40 rituals one at a time... I suppose you should be able to do this whenever you can access your rituals -- which I'd like to be able to do when alone, but that's anoth…

The following text obviously is not towards apophys, but most likely towards Mur and the MP6 crew. What if the power to MAX those creatures is taken from the players and given to their protectors? The active ones can easily gather and set requirements, which each one worshiper should fulfill. The protectors can be given the freedom to determine how many of the worshiper's creatures could be upgraded, depending on how the player managed to handle the requirements. I would love to read your thoughts on this.

So I am lost in the new eastern lands map and while looking at the map I realized... it doesn't help because I still have no clue where I am lol I think a "You are here" indicator would be really great to have if something like that would even be possible.

I've been scanning through the avatar shop recently, and I've been noticing the diversity of the avatars that have been uploaded. I see a couple of old ones, usually, mixed with a lot of terribly made avatars, and then a few new uploads that are of decent quality. Perhaps there should be a medal awarded for people who upload high quality avatars? My thinking here is that it may possibly encourage the productivity and quality of avatar uploads in the future. Just a thought, an achievement or something would work for the idea too. (Now, this is just going by the thought that you can track who uploaded what avatar.)

The mood panel is a great way of sending player's own personal or non personal announcement to the MD world but how about getting it more interactive? Time: It would be nice if the postings can show the time it was posted. Maybe time posted shows when the cursor is hovering over the intended posting? Message: It would also be nice if when clicking on the player's name in mood panel allows for messaging, like having friend list. The suggestions comes to mind coz sometimes events are posted there that says "Come now I am giving away GG Drachs at MDP" and I rush there to see that the event has finished 6 hours earlier. Or seeing something interesting in Mood Panel bu…

One of the main things I notice amongst newer players is that they have trouble finding the [Restrictions] and [Free credits] links at the top of the page. Both of these are important links, the first to help prevent unnecessary conflict and frustration, and the second to help support MD. My suggestion is to make the [Restrictions] link behave like the [View Announcements] link, highlighting Red if it hasn't been viewed or if the page has been updated, and returning to grey/brown once viewed; and the [Free credits] link to be permanently green. It won't guarantee that they will find them, read them, or use them, but I think it will improve the odds.

[font="Comic Sans MS"][color="#483D8B"]I'm not sure if it's just me or maybe I have some type of internal setting set up the wrong way...but I think background music while you're in the game and playing would be wonderful to have. I think it definitely help and aide to set the mood etc.[/color][/font]

Well, the topic sums it up: Implementing an option that enables or disables the loading of token art during fights, in ritual creation and on the creatures page. Pro's: Would make it easier on us with lousy connections/ PCs Con's: Time to code it...

http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/9290-vp-function/ Since he didnt even provide a a decent 3 point scale (always use odd points, gives people neutral ground) i have gone and made a topic to discuss it. And its rather poor form to allow people just to vote, than let others suggest a better way vp could be used and such. Vp for me is only really used when i need to get out of a VP hole when training, and it doesnt usually last long because of the large amount of value points you can attain all at once. Adding a vp limit for some, merely means that you are limiting certain things to grinders who have worked on their VP massively, or someone who gets a burst and g…

There are lots of spells and items that change chatting. Spells Silvertounge Frog Silence Items Bottle of Liquid Dutch Bottle of Liquid French (and one or two other of those...) Windy's Endless Supply of Beer And a nice addition would be the Leet Speak Spell Example- [Spell]:y0u 15 U83R - aaront222 aaront222:h3110 p33p5 (hi people) aaront222:900D j08 y0u !5 1337 (good job you are leet) alphabet (english a to z) 4, 8, (, D, 3, F, 9, 4, !, J, K, 1 M, N, 0 (that's a zero), P, ?, R, 5, 7, U, V, W, X, Y, Z The alphabet is incomplete mainly because although SOME of the letters can be represented by combonations of characters (eg |\| for N, [) for D)it woul…

Credit for this idea goes to my brother. It would be great if the free credits section featured a button to open all links at once instead of clicking through them one at a time. Sometimes it's helpful to have them one by one, at other times, I prefer to take all at once. Then it's really a lot of pointless waiting for reload. So, such a button would really be awesome. =)

Idea: 1. new extra feature in MD Store; not too deep 2. set player would have all direct interaction blocked: includes attack (but also - being attacked), PM, optionally even all chat whited out (like spoiler) 3. very low max number per player - 2 seems reasonable 4. rare reset - like spell (change of blocked player) 5. potential problem: land and alliance wars (no idea how it works); solution: automatic reset whenever their lands/ alliances are in war; should be easy Justification: The question to weight is whether MD is a world of opportunities that players can find a place for themselves - or 'ultimate fighting RP at MP5 level'. I consider the first option to b…

Dear admins of MD i have a Kind request, To increase the Won point requirements for all the creatures cos' of the latest announcement(Creatures no longer losing XP on transfer) Example: i can trade a aged maxed joker from a mp5 player(since essay to get XP on creatures at mp5)and upgrade it to maxed lvl without a single fight since it does not require any Won points for upgrading. My request is to increase the number of Won points as a requirement for upgrading the creatures proportionately. Thanks (really surprised to see no one is against the recent announcement uhhm guess everyone is tired of whining hehe)

The option to nickname your creatures whenever you want after three upgrades. Only one nickname change per creature. I'd gladly pay a credit for it if it were available in the MDshop. Anything wrong with it? Is it a bad idea in general? eh..

Well I have been thinking but I started looking at inventories and noticed that gold coins can have a homeland then I remembered an announcement which got me thinking maybe there should be an achievement for having a gold coin from each home land.

I thought I had posted this as an idea earlier but I can't seem to find the topic so I think I may have just dreamed it. This idea will assist the resource gathering guilds but the theory could be used for other usable items as well. A clickable is set up as a storehouse for usable items that is only accessible to characters that have a certain stat value in their resource gathering stat. Any character that logs out (or perhaps idles) has their usable item automatically transfered back to the storehouse to be available to other characters. Characters who try to take an item from the storehouse while already holding an item(s) from the storehouse will cause all storeh…

Idea: a counter by each creature showing how many times it has died so far. Maybe used as a future upgrade requirement.

Hi, First of all I am not sure this is the right place put this, but couldnt find a better place. Thanks to Mur to change the rule on xp cap to not to add further xp when the xp is over cap. First of all I am not sure why we have an xp cap over here...because logically speaking, there is no bound to your experience, your life is a path of continuous learning and there is always a room for improvement, so why an xp cap then? (If it was for some other reason which I am unaware, please forgive me). Anyways, I would be least bothered about the xp cap, but I am concerned about the win/loss counter, as you know once you hit xp cap the crts wont get any win/loss counters whic…

I was thinking. Some people have a hard time sifting through the forums to find dates to announced events. And often, there is more than one happening. I was thinking, perhaps there could be a calendar tab that could be updated-- like a quest paper, but only for events. The outline would probably look like: Event Name: [Person would obviously put their name here] Event owner:[Whoever runs said event/is in charge] Time:[obvious] Place:[obvious] Possible Prizes:[A list of prizes would follow here, including various information regarding it] Event Information:[A description of the event, why or who for, and other miscellaneous stuff] I am not sure if this shoul…

Note: I've included two ideas below that are connected but could stand more or less alone. Please consider each. Awiiya and Laphers recently posted an agreement on the forum. It made me wonder if there was a place for contracts in MD. Perhaps the forum works fine for such a function, but I would like to see as much as possible brought into the game itself. And so, my first proposal: A new type of document could be purchased from the librarian in the Archives mansion for 1 silver coin. (This price is to prevent spamming of the logs, but could be done in another manner, such as Archivist distribution.) The document would be different from Comments on Self, Hate Li…

In my time at the park, I have noticed that a lot of younger MPs don't really know what a mp6 is, or who they are. MP6 is a very unstable MP level in the sense that people can be MP6 for a week, and drop, or be at it for years. On either extreme, the list of Mp6 is always changing. There can be a verbally given list, but that is either prone to: a. forgetting b. being cleared before being read [depending on how busy the chat is] c. being eaten by PMs [if given there] d. the list changing. It's also not very obvious that anyone is MP6 unless you click on their names, or look at the black and orange dots. But the dots are small, and easily overlooked. I don't kno…
