Thanks.

Water purification would depend on the available equipment and source. Purifying lake water would mean killing microorganisms; for this, boiling is sufficient. Purifying polluted ditch water, or seawater, would require distilling. The method of distilling is to boil it, then condense the steam. (for distilling saltwater, salt would be a side product) Purification requires [b]heat[/b]. Also, I propose to have a purity value on water, depending on where it was collected. Rainwater is pretty much pure, unless the air is polluted. The oldest and simplest pseudo-refrigerator I know of consists of 2 ceramic jars (one inside the other) with sand in the gap between them. Water is poured in the gap, where the sand is, and cools the contents slightly as it evaporates. Maybe this can be made into a usable item to keep veggies fresh longer. If water collecting is to have its own guild, I would suggest having either Aquarius or Nu in the name.

@ Nex - correct. [quote name='Mr Mystery' date='14 August 2010 - 05:20 AM' timestamp='1281781204' post='66124'] High in the sky, I hold many,but none Middle of the mediums I hold both, but alike. Low on the earth, I hold none, but many What are we? [/quote] Eyes?

I'm thinking the ability would be better as an aura.

Use me daily; spill your sap. Wordlessly, I'll take your crap.

I N T P 11 38 12 11 Seems to me I'm not overly specialized. But I do mostly agree with the INTP description, and it's certainly more accurate than the other nearby ones. I wonder how common it is to have such small percentages?...

[quote name='dst' date='12 August 2010 - 02:55 AM' timestamp='1281599747' post='65891'] I propose the following: NO MORE training grounds!!! [/quote] Weaklings need some way to train their creatures and have fun while doing so. I'd be happy with anything that pulls them out of the sanctuaries, as it would get MD growing again. The Sparring Grounds excludes mp5s and ally people. But both groups have weak members, and these need a place of some kind of protection from one-shot or two-shot kills by vets, but where they can still fight each other freely.

I propose the following rules for fairness, in attack and defense: 1. Tokened creatures must be non-damaging if the tokens more than double the creature's existing stats. 2. No creatureboost may be taken advantage of. 3. If more than 2 maxed creatures are used, the ritual must be under 25% influence. 4. Angiens may not be used with over 50% influence. 5. You may not use influence that gives over 500 attack to your creatures.

46 silver.

5 silver.

I know I'm not in the guild, but may I suggest a Nut Sack for collecting nuts from trees?

^ Ratsplat, one of the great things about MD is that there are almost no NPCs. Let's keep it so. An idea: give guild members +1 million defense, but -1 million attack, and very low vitality regeneration. This would somewhat balance the defense benefit and further support the non-fighting aspect. Possible other stats to give, varying between guilds: briskness, trade sense, energetic immunity, regeneration, luck. Attack cooldown could be increased to the old 40 minutes for guilds.

This is how I see it: Loreroot - carpentry MDA - agriculture Underground - mining (gems, gold, coal, etc) Necrovion - metalworking (iron, copper, and other metal ores) Golemus - masonry (marble, granite, etc; quarries) Tribunal - ceramics Marind Bell - fishing Labyrinth - weaving No Man's Land - animal products (could be moved to MB if you don't want a No Man's guild)

I'll start the bidding with 30 silver.

Buri is the Japanese name for large yellowtail fish. Buri caught in winter are called [b]kamburi[/b], and are fattier and tastier. http://kikuko.web.infoseek.co.jp/english/B.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_amberjack This is probably the reason for the link to the Japanese army that Z found. In the Caribbean area, [b]Camburu[/b] is the common name of some moray eels, [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_moray"][i]Gymnothorax funebris[/i][/url] and [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotted_moray"][i]Gymnothorax moringa[/i][/url]. There is also a fish, [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_tarpon"][i]Megalops atlanticus[/i][/url], which is called locally camburupu. http://www.panamjas.org/pdf_revistas/PANAMJAS_4%282%29.pdf This may be related to the river Camburu in Brazil.

There are ways to increase your AP beyond its maximum. I know of 3. You'll find them out over time. You can also join an alliance that increases your max AP.

Happy birthday.

It shouldn't be too hard to, every 5 minutes or so, move their location back and forth so they will never go idle. Right?

I thought the ace can act as a high card or a low card in a straight. I find this to be correct. But on examination of wikipedia, it tells me that the ace does not wrap around in a straight, i.e. cannot be both high card & low card at once. (I remembered a championship-winning hand mentioned on TV, 5 4 3 2 A straight flush) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker_hands#Straight For example, 5 4 3 2 A and A K Q J 10 are valid straights, but 3 2 A K Q is not. Sometimes a wraparound straight is used as a valid hand, but this is nonstandard. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non_standard_poker_hands I would intuitively think that the 0 is like the ace, acting as a 10 normally, but if needed could act as a 0 instead. So, for clarification, are you going to use the 0 as exclusively 10 or let it act as a 0 in a straight, like an ace would? (i.e. which ranks do you cut out, Q K A or J Q K?) I suppose that, to make older creatures better, the nonexistent extra digits could act as a wildcard. (i.e. dark ID 1000 would be a five-of-a-kind)

Could you explain what exactly constitutes a straight flush? From what I understand, 680921 would be one, by having 89012 in it. (I do not have this creature; it's just an example)

Welcome back. I remember seeing your name. Don't worry, there will always be mp5s you can beat; you just have to search a bit. Some of the weaker mp5s have single tree defenses, for example. I recommend you get a protector to help you in battle via spellcasting. Have fun.

Wolfs probably refers to the incident where The Phoenix was considering whether or not to steal the heads of Sinister Minister. The reason for that is Sinister Minister suddenly gained over 1000 heads; the suspicion was that he had been attacking the aramors in Golemus, and getting heads this way would be "cheating." I helped track Sinister Minister - he took a GoE portal to Marind's balcony, where the heads were left on Seigheart. Seig then taunted The Phoenix over the mood panel. If I am missing critical information, I'm sure one of the involved can clear it up. Wolfs, don't worry; Zleiphneir had nothing to do with this incident.

1 silver for Baal.

If so, is tunnel access a new thing, or could you go there before?
