The conclusion I'm drawing is that I can't afford it. But thanks.

I mean, yeah, obviously, just taking advantage of the OFF-TOPIC forum . . . Anyhow, I can and will do a reasonable analysis of the data that I do have and post some of it here in the coming week.

Interesting. 1. a public poll is possible but difficult 2. ballots of an anonymous poll are not accessible without also accessing the associated usernames -- i.e. anonymity isn't built into the process (with the exception of real-time monitoring to observe what changes when a vote is cast) 3. Because of (2) correlation studies are only possible with the cooperation of users Correct?

Okay.

I suppose making it three silver coins wouldn't make a difference, hm.

Built-in failure mechanisms...slow down the constructions, buy you some time to make the new art :)) -- Destructive resources. Free lands can become a more real thing. Give the "poisonous herbs" a use. "weed killer" "fruit bush killer" "explosives" all seem like good things to incorporate in the cauldron, with the potential to mitigate or nullify its growth/maintenance. Undoing work, maybe not, but preventing/delaying it? Isn't that what MD is all about? -- ingredients where enough is enough and too much is too much, e.g. 250 sand, 250 water, 250 yellow candy = 1 layer mixed cement but make space for 300 water, with appropriate implications for the stability of the structure (or just have it not work) Maintaining balance between ingredients with time. This can be forced by making the growth occur in "stages" like layers of paint, you botch it you have to do it again, do another layer, or even other worse consequences. Maybe the balance is humanly maintained, and if you botch it it peels off three layers later. The current lack of immediate feedback (need to manual refresh) would make this much more exciting.

A simple albeit incomplete solution to the existing problem would be to omit author names from the results when doing a title/body search. Do that, annoy everybody.

Thank you for posting this, actually assumed it was a joke.

No way. That would be totally pointless! Besides, the majority of questions would be useless if that were my purpose. Focal points: [spoiler] The important factors that I am looking most closely at are: 1. I read your posts, and: 2.I will tell you why you are wrong about some things (1 votes [2.56%]) 3.they're incomprehensible (5 votes [12.82%]) 4. You don't know very much about MD, do you? (1 votes [2.56%]) 5. I belong to the land I imagine you would do best in (6 votes [20.69%]) [/spoiler] I appreciate whoever clicked every reason listed under yes. If you will PM me the reasons why I am wrong about some things, or just post them here, I will be most grateful. Else I will deign you a liar and pout. Grido: I am not sure if anyone has the ability to see votes as independent entries. If someone does...

Analysis of variance?

This is doable now with title search, you just need to use loopholes.

Some of the pictures don't display for me. http://everthorn.net/magicduel/card1.png

Thank you for the compliments. The poll has self-centered purposes to be utilised or revealed (depending what they are). Some have cool implications. Seems like the "other" votes won't be elucidated, haven't gotten any PMs either. One silver coin to the mod who does ANOVA on this in a couple days, if that's in mod powers. Use common sense for what the different factors are, some are combined in the same questions.

CHANGE who reminded me how to play with fire and water. Change's personality is perfectly balanced with no flaws or irregularities. (Thank you for alerting me to how my alarming recruitment practices cause harm to other players. And alerting me to a number of other things. And teaching me to use a cauldron. And letting me use a cauldron. And giving me tea cups, and giving me tea. And having fun conversations.)

I am an egotist, and have created a poll. You should take this opportunity to give me negative feedback. If it's embarassing, PM me.

If it's extremely brief, which it is now with the delay, then it's not a problem really.

It's bothersome when mouse turns into a cursor and then nothing else acts right.

DNA can't be copied

808888 Remains, age 0. ;) I also destroyed a number you liked.

Wasn't there a spell that used to do this?

Hmmm, no more Google Translate...

[spoiler]Unless I'm missing something, this is again easily overcome, just requires another extra degree of separation? All you did was turn a literal into a variable, which can be set to a value based on searching the code, if he has access to it. If he only has access to an unchanged version of the code, so be it. (I don't know the situation.) [/spoiler]

If the issue is this fear, then...mirror ritual just makes a loud noise, doesn't affect the other player. Right? (Why do we get notified of this, by the way?) So it should be allowed, in the same way that NPC's are allowed. Or I don't understand the spell?

Yeah, if you can do without MD you can do without combat. You can also do without combat by doing without MD, of course.

I think it fits with the concept to allow fights when mirror ritual is active. If this needs elaboration, let me know. or if it's idiotic
