envy

We're a long way off from a global meltdown. I'm more concerned with the economy. We work ourselves to death just to break even. Companies send business overseas to save money, but they never pass the savings on to anyone. They just keep getting richer, then when we are about to get our retirement we saved up 40 years for, the company goes out of business and takes our money with it. People come into other countries and work and never spend any money in that country, they just mail their earnings back to their families in other countries and so we wonder why economies keep getting worse. Companies keep making products out of cheaper materials that break easily, but they keep charging more and more for it. I hardly ever see real wood furniture anymore. It's always made out of pressed wood or plastic dust, and still costs $200-300. What happened to hand carved wood furniture made from real trees?

I would like to translate MD from broken English to modern English. I would also like to correct all the incorrect spellings. I have counted over 30 words spelled wrong.

Um, what are you talking about? I never said you were a liar or that I was there that night. I wasn't there that night. I said my friend posted MD on his forum - I sent a thank you to him for that. I also said that those 30 new players were not from him, but again I was sending a thank you for him trying to help out MD. Then I said I'm online now at those times because I'm a programmer. Then I said I will try and go help out new players at night since I'm online now at those times. I have no idea where the confusion happened that you think I was calling you a liar or anything else.

I actually got up to 7 adepts (was a special person) and I needed to mass PM them once, so now I understand. But then they all found out I'm not as special as they thought, and they left.

You can do wikis on software. Why not talk about the programming specifics involved. How it was started by one person who lived in his car (not that Manu did, but it sounds impressive). lol Struggles of game development, the process, what the future brings for other game development based on the implementation of MD. How MD is setting standards for other game writers. It's not just about storyboarding and writing, but getting an entire community involved to bring out the real game. It almost takes on an adventure of it's own. How each player can determine the next alpha version. Saying something in a forum can make you a hero in gaming history. That's a reason to be wiki worthy.

Not sure but my friend is a moderator of a huge forum and he posted my link for MD on there to get new players to come sign up. He said lots of players came, but I only got 2 adepts from it. It wasn't your 30 new players, but it's nice of him to spread the word about MD. I'm on India time now, because I'm working with db programmers on a project over there. It's 12 hours ahead of US -7GMT so whatever that is. lol I will try and get over to the Paper Cabin and help some new players out.

I still want the winged warrior as my avatar. Tell Manu I will pay whatever I need to get it. It came out exactly as I descibed it to you Blackthorn. I'm so excited! Great job! You are all such good artists with your avatars!

See I'm already learning. dst told me to check here "MagicDuel Forums » The Library » Rituals" to find some information. I would have never looked there, so glad you told me dst. ty I'm not looking for any game spoilers but there are some rits that every knows about and may be helpful. like a "gator gar" will always beat a "heretic". something like that is what I was wondering, but the mechanics of it all help us.

If I didn't miss this posted somewhere else, I'm now (at the time of this post) a mp4 with 1 mil exp. I still don't understand the rituals. How to set them up or why I would set them a certain way. I just fill up all my players with VP, clikc random and attack. When I try to change it up and set certain creatures it's usually to just get wins so they will grow faster. There have been a few times that I have set up a specific (or what I thought was good) ritual and attacked, but I see no difference in the final results of a fight. Do you guys have good rituals, that you can share. Could be ones that worked better as a mp3 then now as a mp4 or mp5. This thread could be a good reference to beginners and mp4 beginners like me. If you could just list some examples about why one ritual would work against another, that would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

chewett and social butterfly i am not really concerned. i ask for prizes all the time and have never received anything, but i'm not stressed over it. it doesn't change my love for the game. alright now let's get back on topic.

But, what really stinks is when you answer their riddle 30 mins. after they post it at 3:30 am and then send them another PM with an indepth description of the item to get even more of response and they don't even acknowledge you. Were they really just waiting for one of their friends to answer so they could give them the prize? Puzzled, but not perplexed

I had no idea adepts help out, but now that I raad it I do notice that I get 500-800 VE not with 4 adepts. ty

I agree. Sounds like a good idea. Oh, and heads are bad. lol

Ty and I couldn't find it. I'm on some differnent skin. I feel like some secret magic types hid it from me to be mean.

I wonder what it's like to have more than 1 adept? Must be something only the special people know about.

I have IE7 and it started after Manu fixed it from bottom focus, or after I asked him to anyway. I also can't scroll up on regular chat and read any text that has been there (unless you can't scroll). Yea, make a private forum. How hard is that? With a big fancy title (administrator) like yours Chewett, you should be able to make an alliance members only section and then break that off into individual alliance groups. But, actually if spies get the passwords they will just let everyone read it. Not a good idea now that I wasted all that time typing it all out and you spent your time reading it. Can you add "Envy of Endurance" to my Playername section along with "envy". Ty sir

It was pushing the scroll bar to the bottom (which was annoying), now it pushes the scroll bar to the center of the chat box and makes it even more annoying to read things higher or lower than the scroll bar.

nerd.

I'm writing my part (elemental) for the Book of Principals and this section seems incomplete. Manu could you update some knowledge on this principal? It says your basics and a bit more, but seems to leave the reader hanging and wanting more. Something that we can absorb. I understand you don't want classifications (or you didn't last year) but what is the real message about the Elemental Principal for us? You say it can be so many things, but at the same time you don't want it to be those things (such as the asian reference). As simple as it should be, it seems to not be focused. I guess I shall search elsewhere even though this topic clearly says Elemental on the title.

At last I heard we are seperated into groups and studying the aspects of 10 principals. Trying to find a way to unlock the book. This is a larger image (originally by King Manu but I think larger image by .Renavoid.) of the pyramids. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/renuse...ellethanone.jpg I have the study of the Element Principle. I have read what is written along with what I already know, but if there is anything any of you can add to expand my knowledge it is appreciated. You can PM me "envy1". Together, we shall find the secret to unlocking the book.

I would like to know how many countries this game represents at the current time. I noticed just in our alliance alone there were 10 members from 8 countries. I thought that was interesting. - USA
