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...

Oh god! I missed those topics . Chew leave for a while. It brings back so many pleasant memories Yoshi, those things happen EVERY single HC. What happened to you happened to a lot of other players. And unless it's a major abuse (alt abuse, severe bugs abuse) this will be treated like an incident and in 2 days it will be forgotten. It's your right to complain and to put this "problem" up but don't put also your hopes us for a solution. Don't get mad, get even

I usually avoid those kind of topics. But I am glad I took a look on this one . Congratz Blacky! Enjoy him . MD will be here (hopefully) for a loong time

I doubt this is a bug. This is how the soulweaver was colored. It looks the same in the crits page.

Cause right now I don't make the distinction between a PWR and a RP-er. Since last year things have changed a lot and right now almost all RP-ers are PWRs. As for the RPC award...we can forget about it. It was just a suggestion.

Hmm..I think you are right. But I would reduce all that to just 1 category. PWR is in my opinion a bit obsolete.

The contest started some time ago. If players were interested they would have sent the description by now. Or at least I would have sent them. From my point of view you can close the contest on 1st of December. Cancel it all is not a viable solution. After all there are 3 people that spent time working on this. They are few but their work is not less valuable. Good or bad it is time that they have invested. And I doubt they did it just to be done .

You can't click it unless you have bought the wish from Wish Shop.

I see the possibility of another contest here.Why not let others come up with a story AL style? Then a jury can decide which story is the best and that one should go into AL. Of course it would have to go through Mur's censorship and ideas adding () but I think it would be quite fun.

Thank you asryn. But can we see the solution also? Just for pure information.
