What you suggest is applicable only to Role Leaders. For the rest it doesn't. And it doesn't because for allies there MUST be a way to remove the current leader. Personally I do not like the idea of leaders being able to give spells. It's waaay to abusable and there are other ways of getting spells.

Just one question:if only the leader is allowed to give out spells what happens if the leader is overthrown or the ally is taken over? Should the current leader lose the ability and the new one gain it?

Princ, I gain probably the most from the first option (4wps/2 years) and/or alts. I have my main and one of my alts on that list. And the alt has over 500 AD. I agree that loyalty must be rewarded somehow. But WPs are supposed to be something special. They might become trivial if too many can be gained in this way. I prefer to see an ACTIVE player not one that logs in just to gain his/her age and not playing at all. Not to mention that the first option helps more the players under 1 year. Because the next WP you get is when you have 2 years. Of course, in case it will be implemented like it is written now. And yes, I noticed the "or similar" . LE: @Magir Dracum: I am the first in the WPs top list. What's with the below statement? [quote]you have people with a lot of Wish Points who don't do anything[/quote] Am I supposed to do certain things? And if yes, what? Cause I really don't get it...

1/365 should be enough. More will definitely lead to abuses. And no alts.

I was replying to Mur. I can compete with anyone else but him.

You did not get it. I cannot compete with you in an "I am right" contest...

Grido! I told you we should close this topic! Now it started to get spammed! Mur, please make your own "I am right" topic !

You water Tree with goat's milk? O_O What next? Baby goat blood? And yes! Let's send Z to Africa! This way I can abuse Tree muahahaha!!!

Yeah, I agree with Obs: The Bob Award is too exclusive and RP related (and we already have that). Not to mention it discriminates . Why not a Best Anti-Bob Award? Most Influential (as in the one who had influenza most of this year? ) is not that good also since it can be interpreted in sooo many ways. The rest...I think they are ok.

Question: Best quest or best quest-er? Cause i remember Kafuuka saying something about it but my memory might fail me... LE:Kafuuka proposed it not Lifeline. Sorry, I have memory issues.

Can someone make a list of the Awards please? Also, several new awards have been proposed this year. Will they be included or we'll stick to the ones from the last year?

"Kill the rabbit" and "Down with..." were part of one of Raven's quests. Each player was supposed to write one of them in 100 PLs in order to get one point for the quest. I remembered it when I found my own "Down with" written in lots of player logs. I have found also something like "All hail the Bunny Empire" and "Down with the Fries Empire". Also lots of "You've been marked bla bla" from a player whos name I do not remember the name right now. Oh and it seems Demo Account has something against Calyx . And thanks Fenrir for the tip but I think I know how to parse the entries and get what I need.

@Malaikat Maut: and I have 24 with almost 600 active days. So my ratio is better. But that is not the point. If I am not mistaken you got the WPs by solving essay related quests. Few people actually do that. Cause imo they suck big time. So you are one of the lucky ones that do what they love: writing essays. But for others, to get just 1 WP is really tough. So 4 WPs for a crit is really too much. Sometimes you need to work maybe 1 or 2 months to get just 1. And there is the other issue:if the stakes are high enough WPs might be trade/sold/etc. I don't want to see that.

Garg...the subject was debated (and still is) in another topic: http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/5794-md-awards/page__st__20__gopid__48898&#entry48898 Take a look and share your thoughts.

Going through the Pls entries I found some quite funny. I was wondering if we should change the funniest quote award to funniest Pl entry award. And use the entries we have so far.

The cap should stay otherwise I will go back to my 2500 more loses then wins. But the skill damage could go. Although I, personally, will probably try to keep my balance because right now it is far more better then the other option.This means that I will not put easier rits...

When you decide how to split them send me some.

Yes, I offer as volunteer. I am bored and I need something to do.

Oh, I must have missed the replies. Just saw them... @Nahlard: In a way, yes, I believe that elite group makes a better game. And you spotted the weakness:an elite group means fewer new players. Trouble is: you already have the group formed. And with elitism (in most cases) infatuation comes along (and I agree with it when it comes to MD). How will you break the group? How will you make it accept new players easier? The easiest way would be to ban them all . But I can assure you that if decide to come back they will be elite in notime. This is a fact and not a theory. It was already proven. @Daemon: I see your idea related more to advertisement then the actual game. You say that a guide could bring more players. You might be right.But is it enough to keep them? How much information can you put up to keep a player interested at least until s/he reaches mp4? Cause if you give too much... Most of the players lose interest at mp3. So if you manage to bring them to mp4 your chances of keeping them increase. It's funny , I am trying to make one of my cousins play for 2 months I think . He has all the info but he logs in only when I yell at him to do it or when I play with him. Right now I am not sure why he is not playing constantly: too much info or is he just being stubborn? I agree, this is an isolated case but... So see my problem? How much is enough? We have different measures when it comes to information. What a person can achieve in few minutes with certain info another one might achieve in days. It's way to subjective. Oh, I just got an idea . Maybe there can be mp related guides (looots of work and I don't know if I personally would ever volunteer for such a thing). Something like: you get a doc when you register. Then when you reach mp4 you get another one with more info. And finally, if necessary (although i kind of doubt) a new doc when you become mp5. Or maybe something else can be done. Right now I have just a rough idea. It's crits/battles related but I think it can be extended. Implement some sorts of quests that would give as reward a small boost of stats (5 or maybe 10 of one kind or whatever). And the quests should go like this: ask a player to explain for example how haotic damage works. H/she submits his/her answer to a designated player/group of players. The answer gets reviewed and in case it is correct the player gets his/her reward. The downside is that answers might (actually they will) be passed from player to player and few of them will actually do the research for themselves. On the other hand I think I also have the solution for this issue... All in all maybe things will change and MD will become a more player friendly game. Until then you can do 2 things: accept the current situation or start to change things. Second option is as you assumed the hardest. It's not easy to change something, it's not easy to make your ideas accepted. But if you ask me it's the best option. After all: what better things do you have to do in the game then try to change ist course/history?

Mp6 is supposed to be a non-fighting mind power. So why give only them access to certain crits? It's absurd. Not to mention that if you do this then the story from this spring/summer will repeat itself: players will become mp6 to get what they want and then go back to mp5.

YES! I want to be able to participate in HC. I want to be able to take part of the blood shed that HC will become if you allow vets to play. It was a thrill when I competed. I slept only few hours. I don't really remember eating. And I think I also switched my phone off. For several days I was an adrenaline junky. I want that back!

Oh! Even better . I don't like little boys

You said "strongest" fighter. Strong does not always imply good strategy knowledge or tactics or all those. That's why I asked. Best fighter is most suitable cause it combines all the topics you wrote down. As for RP-ers..well...I think it's easier. Just because you KNOW when a RP-er is good or not . I don't know how to explain it better.

There is an issue about the strongest fighter award. How will you decide who he is? Based on stats or based on the number of rusties?

It's not the refreshing. It's something else...
