I don't know if it is implied in "General Quest Rating" , but i think another choice for voting on how well a given quest/event was organized would be good too, especially regarding big events.

The following message is from Chewett, who asked me to post it on his behalf. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have spoken with Numerius and he has stated that he is worried that he will recieve some form of punishment for me participating in his quest. I would like to make it clear that no one should blame him for me participating in the quest, I saw an oppertunity to attain a wishpoint so i can buy the ability to edit a scene name and description. However i would like to point out that when i applied for the quest the actual scoring, time length and other important details were incredibly unclear. Thusly there have been many revisions to the quest spec. Even going so far as to have spent nearly an hour discussing this with a number of people. I believe Numerius now knows that all of us are quite confused as to the perticulars of the quest and he will be adding more information. One of the main points i was unaware of is that he plans this quest to possibly indefinate, which is rather problematic as it is not possible for me to leave the forum indefinately. He is going to be sending me a PM later detailing more information soon. Until then you can follow my progress for the quest on: http://magicduel.com/players/chewett -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Happy Birthday !

Best wishes for a great Birthday Nimmy Happy Birthday

Yes, out of curiosity the first time, for stat gain and an attempt to make a profit afterwards, for gifting and sometimes out of boredom.

I want to sell 2 x Nutcrackers The Nutcracker (1) Stored Heat 0 Age 78 The Nutcracker (2) Stored Heat 0 Age 92 Neither has any tokens. Will sell to the first satisfactory bid (accepting creature trades as well) . Reserve the right to not sell at all. Either post here, contact me via forum or in game, whatever suits you best.

[quote name='Valldore Nal' timestamp='1362700680' post='133598'] First, through my experience in HC if a player doesn't have creatures to defend with, he/she loses their head anyway. So , what's exactly the point of not allowing fighters without creatures to participate ?(if things work the same with BHC, which i assume they do) (same goes for illusions and frog spell as well, on the same way why not ban mirrorritual spell as well then and only frog ? ) Jump to leader, teleport spells and summon spells are not allowed ? May i ask why is that if they don't brake any of the other rules mentioned ? What's the reason not allowing those specific spells/abilities ? [/quote] I was actually referring to those, i got your idea about the external help, i may not agree with it, but it's pretty much your choice. What i'm doing here is trying to understand the reasons for choosing to apply these rules. (not all ofc, just the ones i fail to see a valid argument for being implemented)

Hhhmmm, by help i only thought you meant the use of spells in ones favor (which was an assumption on my part, obviously wrong from you last post) . Maybe it would be a good idea to define better what "help" means, just to avoid confusions (and bad assumptions like the one i did) Even though i still get the feeling that by not allowing others to "affect" the contest you pretty much remove a nice random element that could make BHC more fun (just my point of view of course). But i can see that you have something specific in mind by applying that rule (to force people to organize prior to the contest, i guess in an attempt to make it more challenging). And (at least for as long as i'm in the realm) it was never run like that, so giving it a try would show if it actually has the results you expect. What about the other rules i mentioned ? Would you mind explaining the reasons behind those decisions as well pls ?

That's exactly why i've been asking for MRAlyon's reasons for applying those rules, cause i'm trying to understand what problems have been caused. I agree with you ignnus, i see no problem allowing outsiders to affect participants in various ways (as long as they don't brake other rules, such as for example to teleport participants outside from the currently active land) Getting heads should indeed not be allowed (except of if HC and BHC runs at the same time, which has always been a way to "trade" heads between 2 contests). P.S. *Whistles innocently* Shame on that random guy that tried to movelock you ....... If you see him, give him a hug

Yes but you still haven't answered why. You did all the feedback from the previous test contest via pm, so the rest of the community isn't aware of the issues that may have been raised from the participants (or maybe it's just me that i'm not aware of the issues raised) What were the arguments the participants of the first test gave that persuaded you to add this rules ? Or other reasons that you thought that would support those rules ?

Happy Birthday

[quote name='MRAlyon' timestamp='1362724477' post='133615'] day of fear will be the 13th day, instead my contest will the the 14th day.... day of fear will not finish the 13th? or will start on 13th day? if so I will change date of my contest [/quote] If i'm not mistaken Day of Fear will actually last for a week, if Seigheart could pls comment it would be helpful [quote name='MRAlyon' timestamp='1362724477' post='133615'] @vall... player that didn't sign up can't help the partecipants because there is the entrance fee for something... partecipants to the contest can work togheter for let win one of them... after for now rues will stay s... if I see problems with them I will change them again for next contests... [/quote] The entrance fee is for a chance to try and win the contest, i still fail to see what it has to do with others cooperating. As for the other rules, yeah, if you see problems you will change them, but what i'm trying is to see the reason for those rules. Is there any specific reason for having them in the first place ?

I'm not familiar with BHC, but i do have some questions. Why not allow players not participating to help the participants ? I had the idea that cooperations always took place and it never had to do anything with participations or not .... First, through my experience in HC if a player doesn't have creatures to defend with, he/she loses their head anyway. So , what's exactly the point of not allowing fighters without creatures to participate ?(if things work the same with BHC, which i assume they do) (same goes for illusions and frog spell as well, on the same way why not ban mirrorritual spell as well then and only frog ? ) Jump to leader, teleport spells and summon spells are not allowed ?

That actually could create some issues. Not sure if the actual effect can be specified only for LR guards, but if has to be more universal that means (correct me if i'm wrong) that people won't be able to use magic against Molquert's guard as well, right ? And maybe any future NPC's that might be introduced later ..... P.S. I'm not aware if anyone actually managed to beat them using spells, but i guess it may be a problem (if taken as a universal effect), that's why i'm pointing it out

After laylah mentioning that she couldn't cast spells, tried movelock at goe. I got this as a result : <magicduel.com> Error: SyntaxError Err description: undefined Err number: undefined Err message: at line 2, column 6: expected ';', got 'error' Ajax response: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare scramble() (previously declared in /home/magicdue/public_html/ui/navigation/ajax.chatmsg.php:9) in /home/magicdue/public_html/core/func.encrypt.php on line 11 I'm sure i had heat at the time and i copy pasted the words of the spell and the name, so i'm pretty sure i didn't messed up in that. Seems the rest of the people had issues as well.

Thanks for granting me the box council Now i guess it's time to think of the description and to start giving more thought in how to use it

Happy Birthday to both of you

Nimmy, for the first one, #2, for the second one #2 again Falling in patterns ? ? ? 1. I've already done 5 different jobs 2. I currently don't work 3. I'm a religious person too

Tarquinus actually reminded me of a lot of titles that didn't come to mind instantly Mass effect series and KotoR series just rock ! ! ! Also got my hands on XCOM: Enemy Unknown recently (the new version with the improved graphics) and it's a great game indeed (never played the old version of it ) Tarquinus, if you manage to get your hands on Planscape Torment and you don't mind the old graphics, judging from your list of games you are gonna love it! And as far as BG2 goes, couldn't agree more with you

I'm still playing DnD on regular basis Never had any consoles, but i've played a lot of computer games, with a high addiction to rpgs (in the past i used to like rts as well, but the last few years i prefer rpg over anything else ) Some of the best titles i've played (even though a bit old), Planescape Torment and Baldur's Gate On more recent titles, i found Skyrim a great game (kinda like the other Elder Scrolls titles i've played, Morrowind and Oblivion )
