Udgard

I guess what I want to say has already been said by everyone here, but I'll state them once more : this is an amazing game. I found this game when I was just searching the net looking for some browser game to kill some time. The results? I missed only about a total of a week of online time from my 3+ months online. It keeps me coming back everyday. And yes, imagine how hard the work is for him, coding all by himself, listening to all our rambling, suggestions and complaints, and yet still there thinking of new possible developments. This community owes everything it has to you, and that deserves a very big thank you.

Well, I like, and do, both. Playing on real events and supporting the AL(this particular one reminds me of the old AL, with support groups for the players). Anyways, here's an update of what happened today, in case anyone is still interested in phrog's storyline. Today, in celebration of the Festival, the Ferryman has invited lots of people to Golemus. And guess what : phrog's there. He doesn't seem to well yet, and he is very timid, he moves around very quickly, and the only words I could make out are : *i forgot the first line, I think it was something like "it's so far" or something*, but it will still be mine. After that, he left GG and travelled No Man's Land. Last I saw, he was at the Fields of Abandonment. I wonder what the AL entries will be..

Well, another one of my friend is celebrating her Birthday. Happy birthday Meiche! ^^ And this time, though I may now know him, happy B'day to Lestat too =)

Well, at least the Live Help button should not give messages to idle LHOs. I do think that the would need the idle option, they do need to go farm wins/losses too, and allow people to find them so they can leave them a message..

Well, due to that problem of elitism huh.. Well, I guess you might be right storm, but that is why I would like to thank Glai and Lu for bringing this up, so people might get a bit of a reminder. They have a very good point : some of the game features has to be fixed, debugged, and given finishing touch at a point in time. "When", will be Manu's decision, as he determines which priorities comes first, but at least this topic serves as a good reminder, and kudos for that.

ah, jonn was the only one I know, but i guess that's right, cheers to Thereef, buknoy and DiKra too ^^

Well, I happen to see Jonn's name on the bithday list, so Happy Birthday Jonn ^^

Hello, welcome to the forums =) I hope you'll enjoy it as much as the game =b

I think I once saw someone posting somewhere in the forums the head of the Shade Sentinel, who has that exact skull head...

The elementals burns anything they touch too, but I guess it would hurt him... I brought a lorerootian-made blanket yesterday for u and phrog when u were asleep, but I guess blankets won't to the work xb. Well, heat-creation can be made with other things than drachorns. Upgrading creatures, fighting, jogging around, all creates heat. Maybe we can do these things around him to warm up the environment? Well, there is one more thing that gives warmth : booze, a.k.a., alcohol. Mur has lots of them fo the upcoming festival...

Well.. I am also working on a sea serpent and a gigantic forest-creature. I'll post it as soon as it's ready =)

Well, speaking of gacon, he did log in 1 or 2 days ago. He was on vacation too..

@Calyx : Thx! ^^ I think that is the word that describes best what I wanted to say. @dst : Well, I'm glad then =) I thought the last list was only to help RPCs on gathering a list of PWRs for the contest's grading. I'm really happy to hear what you said =)

Angiens...? Maybe you should try taking him to the Angien's Ferry, put his unconscious body on the ferry and let him float to the Shrine..

First, let me say thank you to everyone for such constructive feedbacks. I noticed that my words might have been a bit confusing, and apologize for that. The role officialization that I meant was using tags, so Role Officialization = Tags. I will edit the votes (I dunno if it can be edited, but I'll try) so it would be less confusing. The tag giving that I meant is done only for ONE time only, which is right after the end of the PWD contest. Having all newly emerging roles officialized using tags would take too much time from Mur & Shoeps. The reason, as chewett has said, people can do well just as a normal player. So instead of checking new roles too frequently, why not do a periodic role-checking? It could be done using the current contest format. And then, at the end of the contest, promising roles gets recognized by the community by giving them tags. I suggested the tag-giving to be at the end of the current contest, which I think would be the perfect timing. They are still normal players by any means, they don't become RPCs, but the community recognizes what they do. The PWR adventure is not meant to be played by all PWRs. There will only be a limited amount of players doing it at a given time. I know it would not be easy to handle these adventure logs, but I believe that it is possible, as the example shown to us by the Archivist that has done good job with the current AL. What I wanted to achieve with this was give more possible adventures to players who like to play stories (and I'm guessing that those who liked to play stories would have a role for themselves). I joined the game just a bit before Akasha and Simply finished their adventures. I read their logs, and then I was drawn to read all the adventure logs starting from the 1st entries. At the time, the forum had a Local Legends section, and it made me think that these kind of adventures is what gives MD the strong Role-Playing flavor. There are people out there sent on different quests, and everyone could see and hear their adventures. The recent adventure logs, however, is more focused on adventures which most often are stories of the Alliances on their struggle for power. I like these very much, but I also miss the adventures where people start out on quests that is actually.. "adventure", if you get what I mean. I thought that adding more independent adventure, not focused on the war, would give MD yet another flavor of adventure and create more Local Legends. With the recent release of the inner magic documents, it could as well be a place to use those magics to influence the story. It is not meant to give people who do exceptional things more chance to get into an adventure log, that has already been done by the current AL. It is meant to give those who love to role-play a chance to go on adventures and share them with the whole community. I had thought of making this on the forums only, but that would limit the ones who could read them to those who go to the forums. Well, that was what I had in mind. I would really appreciate your feedbacks. Regards, Udgard Edit : lol, i was wondering what PWD stands for as well =b

Omg! We were hoping that Eden would be the one to end dst's killing spree! I guess you got him, dst =b Aaahhh, I wish Nelya would return soon.. she should be able to heal my body... Edit : we're alive again! Thank Mur...

OMG. That's gotta take a while... Really is a signal to quit MD if that happens =b

In just a few days, the PWD contest will end. 1st winner will become an RPC. Others will not, at least for quite a while. Due to the contest, however, LOTs of new roles has been created, and many old ones has been updated. Some of them are unique and interesting, others are too megalomaniac and grandeur. So, I propose an officialization of the roles of these PWDs. The method is simple; using the tags that has been long used to give titles to people. I know it has long been used, but what has happened with PWDs that has existed before the contest is that they are either taking sometime to develop their roles further(I'm personaly taking almost 3 months), or just feel that the title is not worth bothering busy shoeps/mur (and probably receive no response if the PM gets lost among those hundreds PMs). But with the recent move to roleplay that MD has taken, and fueled by the PWD contest, lots of new roles are spawned, and it would really help if PWD roles that are accepted by the community (the unique and interesting ones, not the megalomaniac and grandeur ones) are officialized and given tags. This would help people recognize others as their role (it's a bit hard to check other's papers each time u see someone new). This would also help players distinguish people with accepted roles with those the community won't accept (er... a Uber Lord of Dragons with the Bloodline of Ancient Demon Kings holding Superly-Secret Powers Waiting to be Awakened). Again I will say, I know that officializing PWD roles using tags has been done before (such as Aleron's Weapon specialist and Calyx's Mistress of the Dojo). What I am suggesting is a mass officialization of potential PWD roles after the contest. It might be even better if the contest if done on a periodical basis to acknowledge newly emerging potential roles that could bring more flavor to the story. Now, to the second part. I have been thinking of creating entries on the adventure log for these PWDs (might include RPCs as well). Do you know Dungeons & Dragons? It's something like that. Players decide how they will react when given certain conditions, and a story manager will decide what the outcome is. There might not always be a reward to these adventures, but they can add to the flavor of roleplay (and give people more things to check as soon as they log in =B), and can lead to deeper development to the character roles using the story outcomes. During times, it might even bring certain rewards or affect the mainstream storyline depending on the story. I know, there would never be enough space to create adventure logs for everyone, but these kind of adventures could include more than one player on each storyline (3-5 players could go on the same adventure as a team, or maybe even on opposing teams). If the community things it is a good idea, I would be willing to help as a story manager. If the Archivists read this, please tell me what you think of these ideas, as you are the ones who understand the AL best. There, I said it. Everyone, please tell me what you think of it. Thx b4

I do refer to him as a Demi-God on my stories, as he is.. the Realm's "God", though in "human" form. It's quite a coincidence that Manu, which is probably chosen because it could be short of Manuel, is also the lawgiver on Hinduism

Ah. so my friends meiche, Sol, and Calyx of Isis has fallen too.. =b Anyways, GlorDamar seems to be victim no.1 today. Oh well, as the Seeker of Knowledge, I am using this opportunity to experiment with the spirit realm. There should be many intereting things here. Maybe I could learn something from ancient ghosts.. If only I could reach whisper alley.. Well, at least I died at the dojo, so I can still chat with a lot of people =)

Well, heed my warning. Anything can happen. I had a single crit def too, with 0 bound vitality, but that single lost fight still kills me. That means, run whenever you can, def rits would not, by any means, protect you from death..

Well, I too posted this on the 1st topic, but here it goes again.. Character name : Udgard Preferred tags: Seeker of Knowledge, Wandering Sage... Golem Researcher Character Description: The true power of knowledge comes not from simply having the knowledge, but knowing how to use it... This soul walking the path of knowledge travels around researching ancient scrolls and uses those knowledge to experiment new things, and is building a Golem with his partners through that effort Spells/Wishes: Spells that helps me with information research and experiments. Probably a spell that reveals the nature of a certain object by paying a wishpoint and gives me access to secret logs about that object. And a spell to craft a golem and give it to someone, once (and if) the golem gets implemented.

U go on an outing with your schoolmates. On the way there, u see an old withered tree, you called it Bob. A few steps away, you see two big-strong trees. You ran back to your camp as son as possible, take your hidden stash of pot (marijuana), and ran back to speak to the trees. After talking to the trees, you pass the old tree again on the way back and called it Steve..

I guess I agree that Wodin should not be touched again. The role, maybe, as a summoned warrior. Maybe a new Summoned Warrior of light can be summoned. But not Wodin. He has stayed in game for far too long (and active!, if it was KC or Morpheus, i won't notice the difference if the player changes..), and his personality cannot be replaced.

u wake up at night to go to the bathroom, and when u see your shadow in the wall, u say "greetings, Dark One, I pledge my loyalty to you..." U see your reflection on the mirror and wonder if Necrovion is on the other side..
