If free WPs ever get implemented, I suggest limiting item creation to require at least 1 or 2 spent WPs, to prevent over-demand of items. One extra WP per person would totally flood the game with items if everyone uses theirs to make an item.

[quote name='Kyphis the Bard' timestamp='1286364955' post='69741'] From what I hear, the method I think you are thinking of (the one in the announcements) isn't actually implimented yet, but yes, there is one planned (just needs Mur to get the chapters finished ) [b]Due to the bug with the Heretics when they where changed, many people (myself included) no longer have the principles they originally chose.[/b] I chose as Peace did, based on the principles I used in real life and was most likely to use as a character, based on my understanding that the principles would be the main factor in how we went about impacting the realm. I know have only one of those original principles, and that I got from going MP4. And beside that, from my understanding of Inner Magic, this will consume Principle Points, meaning we have yet another way to reduce our principles. This doesn't remove our selections, but it does allow us to tailor them when used with the proposed (by Mur) method to re-pick our principles. So this was already going ahead [/quote] That. I no longer have the principles I need for my golem =(

Thanks everyone, really appreciate it

That's one of the points of the Sparring Ground, actually. To learn about rituals and other fighting aspects, NOT to train your creatures. One of the very basics of creature survival in MD is knowing to set cannon fodder defenses (unless you intend to set stronger defenses to gain wins, but only if you're confident in your ability, and don't mind losses as "all rits are counterable"). I spent quite a long time on MP4, but I don't remember ever having any problem surviving once I get to setting up proper defenses..

So now, I guess you've got a hold of the public reaction on this, right? I won't say your intentions are bad, but I think you should change the prize to anything than a WP. Do NOT put ANY WP as a reward for this quest. WP codes are fine if you wish to, though.., but really the only people who would consider the task remotely a "quest" would be very new players, and they barely need any WP codes.

Sorry, I'm getting a bit lost here. What was the original issue again? That allied Mp3s/MP4s cannot be attacked by MP5s during TC (thus no way to defend against them), or that mp3s are using TC as a tool to "sight-see"? Can someone kindly remind me?

Well, thanks for all participants, and of course fyrd for running the quest. It was a fun and interesting quest and I'll certainly be glad to join if a similar one is held in the future. GG! edit: (uh btw, GG here is Good Game, not Golemus xD)

Just to clear some things.. I have already confirmed that you may "communicate in any way you see fit" when asking about using forum PMs or direct in-game means, before I started using the PM system. In-game PMs can be unread, chats on the game can be ignored (pretend you didn't see it or is afk) unless you're catching the person right when they are talking with someone - basically everything can be cheated if there is a dishonest person. For PMs, we should be honest and read it in chronological order and respond only with the fact that we have at that moment. But then I guess it is too prone to cheating if someone is tempted to. So yeah, I agree, let's stop with the PMs for now.. Actually, I would propose a system to fully log all transaction of info, that is ALL information trade should be done via email only, and cc'ed to fyrd. Even if you get it for in-game favors etc, you must log the transfer of knowledge via PM, cc'ed to fyrd's email so all information transfer is fully logged - and with timings clear. You may only use information that the log shows you have at that time, otherwise it is invalid. Any thoughts/comments anyone? Edit: @asterdai: I believe you need to say I go to the toilet every tuesday and sunday or, if you have a halo on your head for example, something like the person who has a halo on his head goes to the toilet every tuesday and sunday. If we only say there is a person who goes to the toilet every tuesday and sunday, there is no possible way of identifying the person (other than having ALL facts from ALL players and looking at whose 1 fact you're missing). Fyrd, please CMIIW here.

Hmm.. I thought perma-balance requirement was stated in the announcement? I never tried to find out the requirements and never heard of them from other players, so I assume that the memory I have of it would be from announcements..

Or better. Show an active adepts list, and put all the non-active ones on a hidden page (viewable by click). While it is not likely, sometimes people return, and might want to contact their mentor when they do.

er, nevermind

Okay, confirming 1 Sc bid then..

So basically, a spell forcing creature-only combat? If so, I'd rather have a spell that has more casts, but affects both the caster and the attacker. Would work well for tournaments of strategic combat-only, and fulfills the intent of giving the 'small guy' a chance to fight back - as long as he is worthy of the win (a.k.a. knows how to set a proper rit).

[quote name='Muratus del Mur' timestamp='1285227264' post='68932'] relax, everything is fine! pfff...great news afterall... the tomato survived...the tomato is immune!! check out the latest confirmed evidence p.s. tz tz tz ..u're highly stressed. two minutes after the post, 12 people here already, and i was asked who died [/quote] No.. now I see it, it's actually the tomato's doing! Look at all those poor eggplants shriveled up while the tomato is in perfect shape. It's another tomato conspiracy!

Eggplant conspiracy.. I knew it!

Happy birthday evil cat! (^o_o^)

Well, that's what I meant. /me might be 'universal' on some places, but maybe not as universal as you think. I know it's not common knowledge here at my place. And also, is /me an emote, or an action? It is common to use * to denote action (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/*#Games),as is its intention in MD, hence why the roleplayers here is accustomed to it - they've been using the *s before the feature to turn it to blue texts even existed. I'd agree that it wouldn't [i]hurt[/i] to add it to the mix, though..

/me is not exactly newbie friendly as well. Not everyone knows that.. I know I wouldn't understand /me at all.. On the contrary, the *s has been used a lot by the RPers (oh, *s are not for emotes, technically, they are for RPing an action) and is much more intuitive than /me

@above: I believe the "get xx credits" when the person you refer gets to mp5 applies to the original referrer, not the current person the referred person is an adept of. CMIIW

Is the 'game name' and the actual name different, or can I just check those IDs and use their names directly (without actually contacting them)?

12 Skill vampire: do you mean tormented soul? If yes, 1 SC bid.

I sold mine more than half a year ago for 96 sc + uncut diamond, but then again prices were different back then. Given how long this "auction" has gone, I think the current price is pretty much the 'market' price.

Appy bday chewie!
