Chewett

As was pointed out by someone via pm, This topic has merely degenerated into "lets post some screen-shots of some clearly not epic content, to be on the list" Espically when people are posting things that are clearly not the best... There will be another topic opening, for only the one the most epic of stats, battles ect ect.

[quote name='ZenTao' timestamp='1323319986' post='97457'] okay that makes sense! Sorry now I get it, I suppose it's all those years playing Diablo2lod that made me not like the word Newbie. [/quote] Not liking the word newbie is an entirely personal thing, The term "noob" is normally considered a rude comment, which can refere to an old or new player, but i would have said nearly universally newbie just means new person, Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Have the rules changed so graphics are now allowed? Many of these submissions break the rules in the first post.

[quote name='Grido' timestamp='1322972973' post='97177'] You may only nominate one person per category, where you feel appropriate please justify your candidate. [/quote] [quote name='Fyrd Argentus' timestamp='1323129059' post='97306'] I'd like to nominate Esmaralda, Duxie, and Passant the Weak for Adventuring awards. Also, Mya for Helper award. [/quote] I believe you are only allowed to nominate one person each catagory

updated to include infomation regarding second in command

all ID's are unique /end spam What are their ages?

Why wont notes and silver be accepted? Are they not valid forms of currency? The Notes have Murs approval...

its broken, its been reported, its never really been fixed. Dont trust it. Kinda against the point of it, but meh.

[quote name='dragonrider7' timestamp='1323007974' post='97199'] I just colored him because..his other level has color.......submitted un-colored too -rider [/quote] I would presume mur wanted no colour as he will colour him himself, Mur is especially picky about colour on MD

Citing wikipedia... poor poor poor

What is your favorite type of confectionery? (aka, sweets, chocolate, muffins...)

[quote name='(Zl-eye-f)-nea' timestamp='1322832172' post='97046'] I agree with Kyphis. They are just pretty pictures otherwise as far as im concerned....which is fun but...yea. Z [/quote] Illusions also give you stats, creatures and spells, depending on how its set up. Loreroot Soldier gives you a variety effects, not just an avatar.

What is generally your job/function?

I might as well make it, since i guess none of the so called speakers did, and i also have the power [cquote]Ann. 2111 - [2011-12-02 01:05:25 - Stage 11] MD Question Time This month we shall be trying something new. You all get the chance to ask us (MD Council) some questions that we will answer. For the next couple days post any and all questions you have (on a topic, create one please) about us , the game or anything and we will endeavor to reply to the most popular or interesting, We wont however answer some questions. Vote using the Rep+- so we can see what is most popular. When we have picked the questions we shall answer them sometime around the 10th. So, Start thinking of questions that we can answer![/cquote] I guess if we are going to +rep ideas it should be one idea per post, dont spam as usual

[quote name='Passant the Weak' timestamp='1322815432' post='97029'] - Democracy based on a council/government in Marind Bell by Handy Pocket. [/quote] You refer to the MB council that was set up by Lifeline and I before the first Kingship Voting? Handy Adopted the system, Rheagar and I improved it so it worked in the new age.

It would be intresting to see each land form their own group, but exceptionally problematic for Mur. Say he wants each land to do X or Y. Who does he turn to as the person or people in charge? What happens if a land is split, does he pick the biggest and totally ignore the others? There is a benifit for having one person at the top of a land, becuase then mur can just go to them and ask them things and do stuff. Wheras if you have multiple people organisation and planning things becomes a nightmare.

[quote name='Kyphis the Bard' timestamp='1322811318' post='97024'] Interesting, none of the times I have had access to Illusions have I ever seen those two, far as I can recall... Ah well, the fact that they are old doesn't really change that I think they should disguise that information as well. Although, that they might be implimented in a way other than Illusions does affect that. Same gist though. [/quote] They were hidden, so you couldnt see them unless you were a "higher" illusion level, or had some wookie magic.

[quote name='Kyphis the Bard' timestamp='1322781903' post='97005'] Mainly talking about the newer ones, such as Tainted Warrior and Loreroot Soldier, both of which are clearly meant to hide the players identity. And yes, Chewett, I have used Illusions. Several times. Not all illusions are for hiding (or even faintly related to it) but the newer ones do appear to be supposed to mask who the person is. [/quote] Tainted Warrior is one of the oldest illusions Loreroot Soldier is currently being worked on, with some rather large bugs atm, and again is one of the oldest illusions just having a facelift. And its not meant to entirely hide your identity, merely cloak it "mostly", because of how it will be used (when its eventually implemented ofc, which *spoiler* might not nesscarily be an illusion ) [quote name='Hedge Munos' timestamp='1322782223' post='97007'] Hm...I like this idea. Would it conflict with the 'open seats' in alliances? Hedge [/quote] Currently i believe it does, but said players are not supposed to be in the alliances permanently, merely during certain "times"

[quote name='ColdSteel566' timestamp='1322780982' post='97002'] That would be the point of the illusion, wouldn't it? To hide your self from others? [/quote] Not really, have you used the illusions? none of them are really to hide yourself.

What illusions are being tested? And, you feel illusions should totally hide a players identity?

Anyone participating in the BHC will also be able to take heads. It is a known issue with running BHC and HC around the same time. Intresting that it works.

Im currently having a look at some CSS fixes for said problem. Based on some tests it "might" be possible without changing lots of things lol And, if people are doing it, check and tell a LHO who will know who to report it to.

[quote name='Prince Marvolo' timestamp='1322591242' post='96816'] There is a reason that some creatures are only avaiable at the highest level at MP6, and thus they are not for everyone. Deal with it, that's the whole point. [/quote] It seems totally unreasonable to say that you are only allowed to fully level your creatures if you are a protector and from what i have seem, many protectors do not care about combat. Wheras there are a much larger group who do care. Mur himself said that MP6 is a stage EVERYONE will go to, even if its just for a couple days. Currently we are in limbo between his changes, and i dont see there is any point getting worked up about X or Y. MP6 at the moment is hard for protectors. If their adepts are so easily turned by some silver, then i question if they are really good enough protectors to their adepts. [quote name='Prince Marvolo' timestamp='1322591242' post='96816'] As for the MP6 changes to attain more stability: I do think there are changes needed. Maybe focus less on adepts but more on worshippers? Like some relationship between "adepts x worshies should be over a number" As in, to become MP6 you'd need 50 adepts (example), but for every worshipper you get, you'd need less adepts. but then poured into a fitting formula. Since worshippers are more stable, the more you get, the more stable you'd be. And if you have less worshippers, ans thus beeing a bad protector, you'd be a lot less stable. [/quote] Actually i think thats adverse to what it should be. Personally i see Worshippers as peolpe who help you, and you can help, but the adept count as a "view" of you as a protector. One person can leave your adeptship but if the majority still likes you, they are still stuck with you as protector. Wheras if you lose a large amount, you drop. Its a kind of public opinion. (this is assuming you have around 40 adepts, because personally i dont feel you can be a true or stable adept at the 30 level.

I disagree Master of controversy should be added. I personally dont think scandals and such should be awarded and it does overlap between best villein. To give some view, i would say Eon would win both prizes since he has been quite villein like this year, assuming he doesn't see the loophole in voting or doesnt want to take it. I agree with removing best quote i agree with merging "Best Artist" and "Paragon Papers" I feel best quote should be removed I disagree that MD Clown should be added this time around, perhaps next time if lots of people like said idea.
