  1. [quote name='xrieg' timestamp='1315080451' post='91341'] As the new feature seems to be still in idea phase maybe there is still some time to reconsider... Balance is a fine concept - but as it is I believe MD is very much inbalanced towards geriatry already. There were quite a few major developments that were basically closing the door wide open so far: drachs, angiens, top crits levels.... Also, crits aging independent from character aging. They all create situation, where activity is secondary to the characted registration time. I understand one reason is to help MD build its own identity and myths, based on players that are active the longest. You are right - resources changed the balance a bit, they may change economy more - we shall see. Still, no amount of resources gathered and currently available cauldron goods will buy a single drach old players have abundance of... I am enthusiast of making crits more unique (like: registering their number of wins, transfer history - see new ideas section).... but I do not like the idea of rewarding just the fact that somebody recruiited them very long time ago.... It's further inbalancing the game towards age vs activity. Unless the hinted development is a part of a major change rewarding activity too. [/quote] you relise nearly ALL the drachs that were recruited, were killed off becuase mur didnt want them to be that easily available. As an old player, Not one who has a lot of coin, I disagree totally, Because some of the newer guys have much better, older and rarer creatures than me. As an example, My first drach was won in a quest, This was after MANY people younger than me had drachs, darks, windy's. Because i am not a trader, i dont move around my creatures for maximum profit and dont have the cash to buy stuff. Eon isnt old, but he has all these cool creatures. Nearly every festival and christmas TONS of creatures are given out, many to people who then dont survive the next year in MD. I dont see your point at all. As for your point "register date is more important than activity" i only see creature age as that being effective, Since you clearly dont know about what we had avalile back then, And if mur said he might make it more important? so what? I read this as an idea, a thought of his. You relise that 4 years ago Mur said that he "though" Chapter three would be released? Perspective and actually finding out some infomation before making sweeping foolish judgements are needed Xrieg, You are a nice guy, But damn you complain.
  2. Malaikat Maut forum password had to be reset due to an unexpected error. This means that obviously it isnt what it was so pm'ing him wont work. If you want the new password you should either contact me or reset it using the email option. Hopefully someone can pass on this message if/when they see him, since obviously i cant pm him on the forum. Sorry for the inconvienence caused. I shall update the post when the message has reached him. Thanks
  3. So, the time comes around again to check out what forums im looking at, who is running them and such. If you are the "owner" of any private forum. Meaning that you currently run or asked for a private forum to be created. You need to contact me with this infomation: Name of Forum: Description: Name of Group that use the forum: Short reason describing use of Forum: Selected Second in Command: The selected second in command will have full power over the forum as the leader does if the leader disappears for a period of 1 month with no communication. A week after posting this, Next Saturday, i will be looking to hide all inactive forums. After a month they will be removed from the forum. If you are currently a member of such a forum, And that you are unsure if the leader will see this, and wish to make sure the forum isnt hidden and removed, you should contact me stating your problem.
  4. no... its the same as buying mutation, or anything else. its perfectly fine.
  5. Dont worry about the game (logging in ) im sure we will be fine! Ima gonna hatch some plans! Have a nice rest Mur!
  6. [quote name='Liberty4life' timestamp='1314984971' post='91248'] idk, i am not really interested in creats nor items, so pure gold however.... there is a special discount for c/p spell docs that i dont have edit: shame on you mur, has more AD [/quote] actually i was tied with him at one point, and if i logged in before him, all the time until he logged in i "technically" was first, but he cheated and piosioned me so i lost some days.
  7. Whacha want lib for the angien? I trust i fulfil one of the two criteria for it?
  8. you make comments saying that dst likes the hunt, and all this rubbish, Yet purposely create a topic whereby she can gain, in your opinion, what she loves. Again, like previous issues this is closed for 2 weeks. If MD council lie dormant on the issue then this can be re opened. Or if mur or council ask for it to be opened. Any more posts created on this subject will be closed.
  9. Work in Progress, post half written Here details the code you can use to insert content into your personal page to give it some dynamically updating content. To use these pieces of code. Just put any of the text in the code brackets into your personal page. Either in the HTML or Content section. NOTE: It only comes out as text when looking at it from the editor. When you look at the page publicly (aka going to [url="http://magicduel.com/players/chewett"]http://magicduel.com/players/chewett[/url] it will display the correct output) [CODE][toplinks][/CODE] [attachment=3177:toplinks.jpg] This element will output the above Html every time. This is a fixed size so does not require any special code to deal with it. [CODE][adepts][/CODE] [attachment=3168:adepts.jpg] This will be as long as your adept list is. So for some people it will be short and others very long. [CODE][equipment][/CODE] [attachment=3176:equipment.jpg] This displays your maniquin with your current armor and also displays your wins, losses and honour. Collectively known as your Battle Stats. [CODE][alliance][/CODE] [attachment=3172:alliance.jpg] This will detail your current alliance details. This is a fixed size so does not require any special code to deal with it. [CODE][creatures][/CODE] [b]Creatures Large[/b] [attachment=3174:creatures-big.jpg] [b]Creatures Small[/b] [attachment=3175:creatures-small.jpg] The creatures page will expand to the space avalible to it. meaning that it is recommended you add some kind of div around the template code to limit the expansion on larger screens. Currently these do not display creatures as it has not been updated. But it is planned to be fixed sometime in the future. So implementing it would provide a nice view of your creatures later. [CODE] [advertising][/CODE] [attachment=3171:advertising.jpg] This hasn't changed size in a while, So future updates may change its format. This is a fixed size so does not require any special code to deal with it. [CODE] [adventurelog][/CODE] [b]Adventure Log Large[/b] [attachment=3169:adventurelog-big.jpg] [b]Adventure Log Small[/b] [attachment=3170:adventurelog-small.jpg] This randomly displays an adventure log excerpt. The length will differ depending on the adventure log selected. Also the element will fit the avalible space. So it is recommended to surround it in a width limiting element. [CODE] [character][/CODE] [attachment=3173:character.jpg] This will display your current stats, including any such gathering ones. This will stretch depending on how many additional skills you have, But for most will be a fixed size as shown in the image. [CODE] [weaponsets][/CODE] [b]Weapon Set Small[/b] [attachment=3179:weaponsets-small.jpg] [b]Weapon Set Large[/b] [attachment=3178:weaponsets-big.jpg] This shows the details of your current armour you are wearing and your description. [CODE] [doc1][/CODE] This will show your protector page. This will stretch to fit the content, So is probably best wrapped in an element of fixed width for larger screens. Also documents may not come out exactly as they are coded in the game. [CODE] [doc3][/CODE] This will show your comments on self page This will stretch to fit the content, So is probably best wrapped in an element of fixed width for larger screens. Also documents may not come out exactly as they are coded in the game. [CODE] [doc4][/CODE] This will show your hate list. This will stretch to fit the content, So is probably best wrapped in an element of fixed width for larger screens. Also documents may not come out exactly as they are coded in the game. [CODE] [doc5][/CODE] This will show your Military pages This will stretch to fit the content, So is probably best wrapped in an element of fixed width for larger screens. Also documents may not come out exactly as they are coded in the game. [CODE] [doc6][/CODE] This will show your Quest page. This will stretch to fit the content, So is probably best wrapped in an element of fixed width for larger screens. Also documents may not come out exactly as they are coded in the game.
  10. This forum is dedicated to the creation, discussion and usage of personal page templates and scripts. Here you can: Share your personal papers Offer your page as a template for others to use (aka giving source code and directions) Comment on the current and future abilities of the Personal page And generally do anything related to personal pages here.
  11. closed and moved
  12. yeah stf came to my mind also. and as shadow said methinks rendril has it
  13. Then, Why let me press the button and give the error, when it shouldnt let you. It doesnt make sense when it specifically say you need 50 Active days, which is different from account age.
  14. Today Chew A used 2 wishpoints to learn Mirror Ritual and Decrease his heat to 0 from 6426
  15. You need 51 Active days for the 50 Active days Wish. Although it lets you click on it and gives you unknown error if you try and buy it when you have 50 days...
  16. 50 Active days, All of those wish's required 50 active days.
  17. Iv just tried to use a Wish on Chew A, Yet for each of them i tried it just came up with "unknown Wish" Wish ID's Tried: 2, 11, 37
  18. ah didnt check them, havent got em installed
  19. [quote name='The Warrior' timestamp='1314619260' post='90995'] I did once try using the templates, but found that my javascripting was 'breaking' the template. So I created my personal page differently: [url="http://magicduel.com/players/The_Warrior"]My Personal Page[/url] [/quote] I trust you know your papers only work on firefox? Opera and IE are totally broken with them.
  20. it would not be possible to detail what will get you banned since most secrets become common knowledge once someone has been banned for them. But i can tell you that buying secrets will most likely get you into very dodgey waters... espically if you are going to tell the world you are doing so...
  21. Anyone else used these templates to create pages with their info? Or just nice personal pages? Iv also added my creatures onto my papers now, so that when mur fixes it *cough* hint, they will also be shown.
  22. You can use the tags as part of the post to tag what creature you are buying and selling. Then people can find posts dealing with those creatures easily! i have went through tagging some posts to illustrate the point (which shows up as me editing them)
  23. Ann. 1876 - [2011-06-21 04:17:38 - Stage 10] No more cash trades Advertising trades in exchange of cash as opposed to in-game currency or exchanges is dragging MD economy to a very dark corner. Players use funds to get things in MD but those funds never remain as coins or similar things with trade value inside the realm. As of now, advertising any "trade for cash" is to be considered against the rules. There is nothing morally wrong with those that want to do that, nor is this a true crime, so the first time, the sanction will be aimed against the trade, not against the trader. You can still trade for credit gifts, coins, other items or benefits inside the realm (except wishpoints) but you risk to lose your traded goods if you pay someone for it in cash outside MD (direct transaction). The restriction to advertise direct pay trades applies to any ways that a character in MD could post such an advertisement in realm (chat, moodpanel, papers, forum, etc). The way how this new rule will get applied or how severe the sanctions will get, will depend entirely up to how this will be respected or not. I sincerely hope you all see the reason for it and respect it as a kind request not only as a forced rule.
  24. And the forum one doesnt need a warning, since only mods can view it. It IS ancient lore, Says clear enough on the archives, What you do what ancient lore depends on the person though.
  25. [quote name='aranna' timestamp='1314595844' post='90964'] On a side note I except coins, secrets/favours and certain creatures. As most of you don't understand how secrets and favours work coins will suffice unless you have a secret or a favour that might spark my interest (secrets and favours [u][i][b]MUST[/b][/i][/u] be in game I woud and will never ask for something outside of MD). To place a secret or a favour as a bid just say secret or favour in your bid but please don't waste my time with something that is general knowledge, has the potential to become public knowledge or too many people know. [/quote] If you want i can tell you secrets that will undoubtedly get us both banned... Well, i might survive it. Buying secrets is a very tricky slope and can very easily get you banned. I wouldnt recommend it.
