I've been watching my honor and win|loss ratio closely. It would appear to me that it is indeed functioning as if fighting under normal circumstances. Strangely enough, my ratio has started moving again too. I do not know if this is the same when fighting alliance members, I don't usually fight them. The honor gain/loss though definitely isn't random for me. It rises and falls the same as it does on my other accs.

Tremir and Braiton, I just got the reply that your problems have been solved...

That doesn't fit so hot with being dead. That could be anything...besides, if we follow the commas actually used in the couplet we have "Willow walks" "although he's dead nightly on his little lake bed". My theory here is that "he" and "his" refer to Gabriel Wind and Wind's grave is at the bottom of the lake which may indeed be in the Angien city, for no one would ever find it.

RPCs count. I'm positive of that.

T_T I'll send it again....

It is entirely possible that Morpheus could do it..Perhaps they are mindless because they are stuck in an eternal dream? Ah...there I go again making theories like bunnies make bunnies. xD

I have seen that the egg on the shrine has a small winged being inside it..perhaps growing? It would appear that one of my theories about the shrine was correct. It is some sort of holy birthing ground.

And it worked...Suddenly in the distance light could be seen rising up from the island. Could this be contact from the Angiens? Are they tellings us they do exist and acknowledge our attempt to contact them? For now, contact has not actually been made, but now the pursuit can go on knowing that fruit is soon within grasp.

I must say I think I just got a ton of different people from all mp levels involved in something pretty big. Also, I didn't read the post at all Black, I was just kind of skimming and something that chewett said brought that to mind.

The Archivists is a Guild. I do not seek out players based on mp level at all.

........Wodin. he just said that

Well then, how about this. Each of the Alliances have it's own separate thread listing who is in there. Some may even make occasional reports on their findings. This way people could see what the alliances are about and know who they should seek out. The threads would need to be organized similarly though. For instance: Thread Name: Alliance Name <Type> Homeland: Activity: Members: 1. 2. 3. Description: [example] Thread Name: The Archivists <Guild> Homeland: MDA Lands Activity: Active Members: 1. Renavoid 2. Yami no Sakura Description: Keepers of the information of Magic Duel. [end example] Of course, the Description should be longer.

This capacity is actually a guild, but we are as follows: The Archvists Renavoid Yes MDA Lands

I've been watching the progress, and I think that Wodin actually does do stat damage, though it is not as much as it says so it isn't noticeable unless he attacks you many times. Did you receive many attacks from wodin?

every 10 minutes or so type something into the chat so it doesn't go idle

Morrel has something very interesting he will be posting here soon, I hope. As to the people at the shrine..yes, that was Mur and myself. My theory was more or less correct. The shrine is a holy birthing ground for the angiens. Aside from this, not much was discovered. I shall continue my search. chewett, I hope you can find something. This is starting to look more like my project than ours.

did you message mur? this is very strange.

Happy Birthday Akasha! Even though I don't know you!

The problem is being resolved now Thank you for reporting and not just stealing.

Over the past day I have started to accumulate more ideas and theories about the Angiens from things around the MD globe just as we did before. Firstly, I would like to say that I am swiftly coming to the conclusion that the Angiens may not actually help us. Or rather, they do not seek to protect us. It is more likely that they are protecting themselves and the land where they live until their king returns as the wind's sanctuary's couplet suggests. A new scene that Juni0r discovered was the Tunnel of War. Again the reference was made about the faceless ones. The couplet says "The ones without a face still stop us to charge the ones that once defied us." We know from the legends that Necrovion did indeed launch an attack on Marind's Bell but they were thwarted or "defied." It was brought up by Glaistig that we do not necessarily know that the faceless beings are the Angiens because they may be shades. This is a wonderful thought, but from the Passage of War and the Tunnel of War we know that the faceless beings are protecting Marind's Bell which the shades definitely would not do. Thus we know that the faceless beings are the Angiens (or something else completely that also defies the shades) and they definitely defend Marind's Bell - NOT the people. There is not evidence that they protect the people, only the land. One thing I will make as a random point that I forgot to mention earlier is that Wind's Gate may actually be the right of passage to the ancient city of the Angiens. The couplet tells us "A wooden gate as old as Wind, a secret passage it may bring." It is an ancient gate constructed along with the rest of Marind's Bell with the help of the Angiens. This is seriously just a random theory though. Now, a lot of speculation has been swirling in my head about Jack Willow. The bottom line is that I am growing more and more concrete about him being an angien and possibly the king of them. In a conversation with Aleron and Glaistig, I started wondering about the prologue where we receive the cube first. That being was faceless, but it was also completely shrowded in darkness. Glaistig suggested that it could have been willows because the shades have the power to seize control over a person. But, they want the cube back, so that one shade was dissenting. But, we see Khal every day and see nothing of his physical appearance being so drastically changed. I therefore think that the being was faceless because it already was faceless: an Angien. Additionally, from Willow's Walk we know that "Willow walks" and is therefore most certainly alive, which once again leads me to believe he is on some mission, and the angiens await his return as their king. This sort of power, I believe, would certainly give him the power to be completely covered in liquid dust (which I kind of believe to be the raw power of Necrovion or Deathmarrow) and still do his own bidding to protect the wooden box which Marind may be trapped within. **Morrel is my specialist on Marind. I do hope he posts his findings on her here, for they may be of great use if she is indeed an angien as well. And, in speaking with Morrel, we at one point made the speculation that Willow and Marind may actually be siblings. I do not remember the exact connection here though. I'm sorry, Morrel, I lost that log. Care to share it?** This single thing ties quite directly to my next theory which comes directly from some findings by Eden. Eden realized that the picture on the front page of MD definitely sported an angelic looking faceless creature. There are two completely different paths I would like to walk here for possibilities. 1. That is an angien, or some other great being similar. A sort of divine being that is holding onto the world of MagicDuel. Thus, the world is continually bathed in sun. The shades seek to bring back the night, and Bootes, our Celestial Observer, tells me that it is difficult to watch the heavens when there is no night. Thus, a light being holding the world could definitely be a possibility. 2. I am more inclined to believe that the Angiens actually have faces, but can still be called faceless. I'll explain shortly. Point here, is that the being here is some other being and 1 is still a possibility, or it is just a cool picture that draws us to the game. Either is very possible to me. Glaistig is the one who drove my thoughts down this path. Glaistig initially questioned why the faceless beings had to be angiens and couldn't be shades because findings elsewhere that I will not disclose at this time definitely suggest that angiens have faces. I propose a different theory. A divine being is perfect. In all their holiness, they are unblemished. What if, instead of being actually faceless, they are called faceless because they can stand resolute as statues and give away nothing. Faceless could mean they have the control to give no emotion or sign of life in their face. It could also possibly mean that they are so unblemished that it is difficult to look directly upon them. This definition of being faceless could certainly explain why there are no rumors of Willow being faceless. As I was typing this, I had another theory about Marind that truly was almost exploding in my mind, but I would like to speak with my Marind Specialist, Morrel, first.

it being just like your first life makes it that much more exact as a cycle. the beginning is the end. and the end is the beginning

wow..that...sucks O.o

I have not yet received a reply that yours was fixed tremir.

The Angiens are the enemies of shades, this much I know. There is no guarantee that they will help us. They may only help when there is someone who fits the description of Wind, and that seeks their help. Otherwise, they may still try to protect themselves, but not necessarily us. That is the reason for seeking their aid. If we don't look for them, they may not even try to help us at all.

phlegm, i have to ask if you tried clearing your cache, since that solves so many of our problems.
