[size="4"]Happy Birthday Grido! I hope you have a Wonderful 50th Birthday, Its a biggie, so dont spoil the fun! You can still go out and get really drunk [/size] edit *cough* the age above if incorrect if anyone actually believed me lol

Surely the maze and GG is just another example of the tribunal? I would have thought some GG guys would club together to patrol it and keep the costs down, simiarly as has done with the tribunal. As Mur as said its up to us to decide what the AP costs are, as we can effectively decide them based on if we care about to do some work moving around there.

Each part has: priority announcement date announcement time stage type shorthand comment of those, priority, date, time, stage and type will be sortable and selectable. So someone could either select to have all Priority 1 things, sorted by date. for types, I currently have and as examples: Feature - visoscity got implemented Bugfix - principle selection got fixed Head Contest - winner of HC is... Announcement - MD birthday festival is happening X Torch Contest - Torch contest results Punishment - Someone got jailed Reward - someone got rewarded (dreamcatcher as an example) Forum - Mur made some post about forum, or somethng happened to forum For these types, I am open to suggestions such as widening, adding, removing and such. What im really looking for is enough types so that there arnt a tonn of types that are full, or empty. So any suggestions to change said types would be good. I was considering having an additional type "Automatic message" as most wont want to read "Spells reset" As always, comments are good

So, after finishing my Techincal exams, Iv prettymuch finised up detailing all the announcements in my views. Im wondering how everyone would like to see them. The format im working with them at the moment is useful for editing and stuff, But not very good for you guys to see. I was considering uploading it to one of my sites, and coding a nice little interface that lets you search by date, ID, and catagory. anyone have any specific preferences?

What a Shame, The 10,000th post on our forum, is merely spam because someone didnt check for previous... Oh well, The party will have to wait til the 20,000th Post, I guess im keeing the rusty then...

Im not a Loreroot Guy (Marind Bell For Lyfe) But i can answer one question of yours To apply for citizenship, you need to use the right panel, There is a link that says "citizenship" which will allow you to apply to a land. Info's about loreroot... They are tree huggers? Kinda all you need to know. As for the Guards, there is some debate whether it is actually possible for a MP3 to defeat them currently, after a few changes, So my advise is wait til mp4 or 5

The adept system has changed recently so that you need 100 Active days to become an adept, so if you dont have this you might not be able to. But welcome back! its nice to see old faces return

Because of the new system, whereby you can cast spells accidentally, if you spell word was previously something simple, it can be used when you speak. If you use up all of your casts of said particular spell, It can then prove impossible to chat if you say any of those words. As you will say the word, it will attempt to cast it, then tell you that you dont have enough casts. I believe you should be able to change the name of your spell even if you have used all casts, Which would fix the problem of using a lot of casts, then being unable to speak using that word. Thanks to Queenie for pointing out the issue she had.

please read this thread before posting Bugs, http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/2904-posting-bugs/ Always check a forums pinned topics before posting in the forum, they are generally important.

Images now seem to auto approve themselves, So now any images you post should be visible automatically.

That was a member who obviously feels petty enough to try and reduce the reputation of normal people, due to his own horrendous reputation.

This is regarding the previous fix, [quote]Ann. 1339 - [2010-03-08 04:00:29 - Alpha 9] Story mode fixed. In the next hours is possible that it will still display errors from time to time as i finish some more things, but basicaly its functional again. MAJOR BUG FIXED: principle selection now works as supposed to, no more fixed 3 principle selection.[/quote] Seems it wasnt entirely fixed.

Were the Previously nominations based on a similar set of previous guidelines? Because as someone has pointed out, Someone such as Granos would not fulfil said points you have posted. He has been around a lot, caused a bit of mischief, But all in all, it was invisible. Most of his fun, plans and results were hidden from public view. No one ever saw very much public motion from the alliance he headed for a while, And based on this, He didnt have a "massive" impact on the greater realm. If you judge it from the above reasons, He would not fit in. Yet, in my opinion he is an legend. Anyone who met him, Saw him roleplay, or generally do anything, he had a certain interesting way of how he worked. My main question for this point, is should we be comparing previous "legends" with ones suggested, to try and point out that X and Y are similar, And can Legends be "removed" since Eon has indicated he would want him to be. Note: This was posted after a friend pointed out some things to me.

You can get more AP using other methods, So its not entirely "inaccessible" But it will make it harder.

Certain locations should surely be perpetually low, or at 1. Keeping the 0 viscosity at 1 AP means that people walking by will increase the amount of time it stays at this low value of 1

Have a good Birthday!

Ding Ding! Round 2 Chewie Vs MB, May the bout commence! [quote]The following I am highly doubting and require more arguments to be listed as Legendary: Morrel, Blackthorn, Ivorak, BFH, Princ Rhaegar, Eon, Curiose, Tengri[/quote] Eon - I would have said, That Eon should qualify for this, being one of the strongest fighters in the game, Winning the BHC and attaining the position to run the BHC as he choses fit. He is akin to Eden, And has achieved offical power which Eden did not, I would think he deserves said place if Eden is on the list (which he is) Curiose - She is an intresting one, Ran story night sporadically for a period of time, and now became the head of the Treasure keepers after helping Mur with a variety of things, after selling her help on the forum. I would be more inclined to say no for her, Since she is "relatively" newer and definately would come under point 2, New Project, Unsure of outcome. But i would say she is someone to consider if there is more i have forgotten. BFH - Again he is on the same "line" as Curi, if a little more progressed, He has spent a lot of time helping newbs as a pretty pernament MP6, everyone knows him. Additionally he has spent a lot of time working with advertising, re getting the advertising guild up and running after it was disbanded. But then it was closed down again due to lack of viable applicants. Plays an important part in MD in regards to his role, Since advertising is very important. For him i am again unsure, So i can see why you put him in "highly doubting with more arguments" But i would say he is a key player. Simiarly to Curi, If not now, and he continues to play, definately next year. Morrel, Blackthorn, Ivorak - They popped in and out of the game, They have all done things for MD in some way or another, But overall not much springs to mind in regards to what exactly their "legacy" is. Personally i would consider a legend in which you could point to some facet of the game and go "That guy did really well with helping with X, or doing Y" Tengri - I think the phrase "fun while it lasted" comes into mind. He might have had a fun role while he was around, But in the end no one is really shouting his praises, Nor had i thought about him since the last announcement regarding him. Princ Rhaegar - Did a lot of work with Loreroot, specifically the savalites. Then got Exiled over some trivial issue, and moved to MB. His Newbie starter quest is pretty decent to learn how to play and such, And is currently in the Marind Bell Council. Other than stating what he has done, i wont give my opinion on him As for the people who were rejected initially, I agree with all, Except possibly Fenrir. Although my many and varied fights with him, He did make MD a little more intresting. Not nesscarily a "definate" legend, But i would disagree with immediately ruling him out. [b]Disclaimer: Please read this, twice if possible, so you don't all come to maul me. I have in no way stated everything you have done, I am not trying to overstate or understand various points, If i have indeed understated your involvement in X or Y, Then i am sorry and that is only because i did not know about it. Please feel free to correct me on any and all points i have made. I am not trying to be rude to you guys. I am sorry if i have offended you in what i have said, there is non offence intended. I would love to talk to any of you, if you feel i am unjustly unfair, and i will correct this post as you wish. The Opinions posted are merely from MY point of view, They will most likely be not "politically" correct, and are not from my position as SoE leader or Forum Admin. Merely from MY view as a player[/b] ------------------------ In regards to an item being made, Surely it would just be one Wishpoint to make such an item, So such a wishpoint could be used from the stock Mur made?

To me, you seem to weight "helping noobs" rather a lot, in comparision to other such fields. Which surely makes Inno even more of a well rounded applicant, She has helped a lot of noobs in her own little way, Introducing some of the finer aspects of "always" playing your role. Surely Writing the adventure log, And then later her Player Adventure Log did affect a lot of people, So i dont really see your point about isolation. As iv said, In my opinion all of them deserve a position on the list so hence why i was talking about them. But i still feel that how you are judging them is flawed, based on a limited amount of points.

[quote]The following I have the highest difficulty of judging and at the moment of me writing it, it may as well be a coinflip (and because a coinflip is arbitrary, my auto-judgment is no), so please strengthen or weaken the cases for: Innocence, Fyrd, Mya Celestia. The following have (tentatively) been accepted, unless serious cases are made against them: Indyra, Handy Pockets, Windy, Sagewoman. (h-uh, all women).[/quote] I look at the people you have nominated, With the first glance being at Windy and Sagewoman, They have both done a lot in their area, And have been "around" for many events, But if you are basing their involvement on comments such as Phantasm made, Are people a legend because they were around and "helped" some matters? He even quoted saying that she helped the role of Grido, Which grido seems to be rather bemused at, What part of his role did she help him with? Both of these people i would say would not necessarily fulfil your "legendary within all of the realm". With for example windy, she is currently attempting to get the pub into the game, Yet hasnt yet suceeded, unless her legacy is something else, it would not fulfil your second point. Does the mere fact that they have been around so long, experienced so many things, make them legendary? Then Indyra, She has managed to attain an alliance which handles CTC codes, That is a great and worthy feat no matter if she was recommended, appointed or just happaned to be the right person around, But does that qualify as legendary? Is that nessacrily "within all the realm"? It certainly does effect the realm, but i dont even know if she has such powers to be able to do what the guild is meant to? I havent really seen any advertising or posts, and if so i have totally forgotten about it. Does this not thusly fail in Point 2, as to me there was commotion about it at first, yet it has in my view petered out a bit? But does the fact the first guild to be able to do such things, Being ran by Indyra clarify as Legendary no matter what it has done? In contrast, you can suggesting Mya should not be, I would have said she has put a lot of work into Loreroot, with having attained a high position in it (if i am correct). In my mind, this is similar to what Indyra has done for GG minus the attaining the alliance, Which i have already pointed out probably doesn't fulfil your point 2. When does the effects of one person working hard in one land, start to effect the greater realm? Once again, Becuase a legend is so intrestingly defined, i dont know precisely what you are looking for. Again, on a totally different view of a legend, Fyrd has made an impact more generally over MD with the numerous clicky quests. He has had many participants and out of the people named has probably effected the "most" amount of people in all the different lands due to the nature of his quests. But would you consider this one facet of him legendary? His helping out newer people with MDscript has certainly helped a group of people, But would these efforts to help and get others to enjoy his quests make him Legendary? Innocence is another who has spent her own little time in her own field. From what i have seen she has set up a "Player Adventure Log" which has had participation from a wide group of people, Always in character she Dwells the archives. But she does keep herself to herself. So Does this mean it is not qualified for effecting a wide range of people? Or does the fact that she wrote, participated in her PAL, make her a legend? Handy helped with Awiiya, telling stories and such, participated in the AL, and has now become Queen. I guess the whole Awiiya thing would fall under the fact that it doesnt nesscarily effect the entire realm. The AL she participated in, is no mean feat. And thusly that would probably definately qualify her for a bonus, to her "application" But If that does, Then surely Innocence would haveing Written parts of the AL? Surely that is a more important job, to be guiding how it goes. And as for "Being a Monarch is legendary enough" She has become monarch recently, and so far hasnt made any big changes, What you do, and what you leave for the next monarch, So as such i dont think you can really make a comment eitherway based on your Point 2. [b]Now, once iv commented on all of this, Please read this, twice if possible, so you don't all come to maul me. I have in no way stated everything you have done, I am not trying to overstate or understand various points, If i have indeed understated your involvement in X or Y, Then i am sorry and that is only because i did not know about it. Please feel free to correct me on any and all points i have made. I am not trying to be rude to you guys, each and everyone named above is a good friend. I am sorry if i have offended you in what i have said, there is non offence intended. I would love to talk to any of you, if you feel i am unjustly unfair, and i will correct this post as you wish.[/b] The main point im trying to make, is classifying a legend is VERY hard, And each will have their own view. In my opinion ALL of the guys stated above are legends, In their own ways, for doing their own specific things. I am trying to point out that, By the two points you posted MB, that perhaps some "similar" people have been added, or left out that shouldnt have necessarily been done so.

I would recommend leaving it open... because no doubt others will disagree with me.

Use them to sponser your tournament, I wouldnt see that as an issue at all. Assuming you didnt get them. And even if you did, it wouldnt really be much of an issue since you are allowed to trade items between alts, even if i wouldnt approve nor recommend it lol

You want cases argued here or on the day? Because im seeing a bit of discrepancy for the nominations...

Have a good birthday Queenie

I can keep it updated if you want?
