Contest is over. Winner: Arianna de Montreve. Congratulations! Answer: inner surface of a red bell pepper.

Don't make it mandatory. Put a link at the top of the AL column, only for those who want to help out. That will cut it dramatically, and will prevent useless entries. Only pop it up automatically for people who have provided ideas, say, 3 times. Include a skip button. (i.e. filter out people who don't care very much) Order submissions by active days of the poster. I agree that a mediator is a bad idea.

12:0 so far. EDIT: Make that 18:0... No, 23:0 ... No, wait, 31:0 ... Longest winning streak ever? O_o Even at 30:0 it still makes some noob mistakes. I found another error - base aramor vit is 330.

^ Not flesh, of any kind.

Nope. It is rather common and readily available, and I'm sure everyone has seen it, but has not looked closely. The label is quite a bit smaller than my fingernail.

None of the above. I posted the link at the GGG, and got a lot of nice and funny answers over 2 hours, all wrong. HINT #1: This is a FOUND surface. I did not create it by burning, blending, mashing, etc. My favorite answer so far is Pamplemousse. However, this is neither a citrus, nor flesh of any kind. I may give another hint at the end of the day, in 8-12 hours.

It is not citrus; it is not flesh. HINT #1: This is a FOUND surface. I did not create it by burning, blending, mashing, etc. HINT #2: The piece of paper in the pic is quite a bit smaller than my fingernail. The subject being photographed is readily available. ANSWER: Inner surface of a red bell pepper. Congratulations, Arianna de Montreve!

Hollow Warrior has 500 VE, not 300. And, of course, the dark archers aren't attack-based anymore.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/frigid Usage 4 is inappropriate, but it is not an obvious meaning from the PL, considering the lack of any context, unless Czez is notorious for cyber advances. (In fact, I was unaware of this meaning until now that looked it up. I honestly didn't see anything wrong with the post.) I respect Mur's decision to remove a borderline case.

The "cache" is what you have temporarily downloaded onto your own computer by visiting the site. True, if everyone has a piece of the site in their cache, it might be possible to recreate md-archives from the pieces.

All the problems I see are at mp5. Please don't withdraw support for mp3 & 4. I haven't broken or been broken even once for weeks. The low mps need MR support.

Fortune's Well. Well of Tears is Necrovion's mirror of it. Good location. The rhyme even mentions a coin. Whisper Alley was once used for storytelling, so Fortune's Well activities can move there. The other major location option is the Press, for a sanctuary area.

^ That would be akin to simply picking a winner.

The result will be everyone waiting 'til the last moment to guess.

Any jerk can come, take newbie-stage and crash it with some well-aged crits, a bit of experience and a lot of sparetime, and face no consequences, but when we come and stop them, it's evil and against the rules? You say that what's possible can be done, but when somebody else plays by your rules you get whiny, very interesting... Who is destroying MD? The people who scare newbies off, or the vets who assassinate the scarecrows? You may judge for yourself, but i'm confident that the major part of the community knows which side is less wrong [/quote] "Assassinating a scarecrow" would be commendable OUTSIDE of the GGG, where there are no rules whatever. INSIDE the GGG, however, it is a GGG violation, and that takes precedence.

I haven't dealt with extreme boosts, but angiens alone never kill themselves. [spoiler]There's a point where the recoil is nullified.[/spoiler] I'm very much for this.

I would recommend looking at new experimental treatments, such as taking a sample and making a sort of vaccine against the tumor. Eat shiitake mushrooms (cooked, of course). They contain AHCC (active hexose correlated compound), which boosts your immune system. I'm sure you can tip the scales that the 15% will become your favor. Don't ever give up. You are in control of yourself, not some destiny, or God. Good luck.

Well, if the battle log was posted, that would make things a lot simpler to analyze, without speculation... Note: if someone encounters this, please post the log.

Never be afraid to ask questions. Read combat logs. The rest is common sense or a derivative of it. You can't teach common sense or touch on every situation it may apply in.

[quote name='Orlando Gardiner' date='17 January 2010 - 07:10 AM' timestamp='1263733834' post='52882'] angels sang out, in a miracelous chorse, down from the heavens, decended chuck norris.. he is awsum^^ [/quote] You misquote. In an "immaculate" chorus. (I'm surprised the song is so popular. ) Charles Nelson Reilly has Chuck Norris' head on his trophy wall. See for yourself.

^ Well, you could just tell all new arrivals other than VIPs like Grido to move to the end of the hall... Then there is no end to the number of people you can take in. Of course, eventually they'll get tired of walking and will sleep in the hallway... but this infringes on the practicalities of an infinite hotel, so I won't speak further.

Unfortunately, DST's answer seems to have a slight problem: it would require cooperation of infinite guests (and as stated, it would take infinite time to complete). What if everyone except for a finite few refused to move? A simpler way to solve the problem would be to tell one stupid guest to move to a room situated at the end of the hall. Since there is no end, he'd never get there. So a room is free. I think this is proper to quote here: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein

I knew you through our mutual friend, Eggs. Unfortunately, he isn't around anymore (idk when you left, so you might not have been aware of this). He might poke in once every couple months, but not more. Welcome back. If you need a refresher on the battle system come see me at the Sparring Grounds (new form of the Dojo); I'm still mp4.
