fixed, try now and see if there is any other problem related to the K docs. thnx

I have no ideea why this is happening but because its not a constant issue i wont try to discover what is going on right now. I suspect there is a larger issue with the chat, if so i will find out what it is after i gather more info on it. Does the "classic" refresh work? There is a few minutes delay between the times when a character changes locations, most of the time you do not notice it but sometimes you could be marked as beeing on the map even if you are in a dream or alliance chat. Alliance chat and dreams are tehnicaly a different location and you are simultaneosly in two places to be able to chat in alliance.

i don't see a problem here. Its the way it was supposed to be. You should be fully "clean" once you get reset back to your home location or gazebo, then you should be able to buy and recruit creatures.

It should be fixed now. There was somehow a problem with the alts that they didn't record the collection id properly. I still don't know why that happened but i could not find any problems when i tested. I suppose the problem was fixed before and it was an isolated issue back then only. Please let me know if you experience similar issues from now on. Now, the bugged docs in your K collection are still bugged,but, you just have to leave the collection with each one and then join back in and they will be allright. I think there is just one or two, but you know who else is invisible there. The 'abandon' button will now work also for the bugged accounts.

I asked for a clear list of people that want to start the team. Also, i need you to talk with eachother and make me at least two suggestions on who you wish to be team leader, i will pick one. Team leader will have access to translations admin and will centralise the work of the others. ready when you are.

that won't be the problem because now its autodetecting language, in game it ill be predefined to the language selected

By GO game i mean a game that uses some kind of objects for the main play (not as counters) and cards as secondary game tools. For example it could use two types of stones to play (like black and white or gold and black) and a set of cards or disks to count things such as "lands" ,"abilities" or whatever other things there could be.

i'm away in vacation, when i return i will fix all issues and assign the docs. sry for the delay.

I didnt see any good results so far, so if you are asking if this competition is still on, yes it is. Glor will place the winner list on the top, if such a winner list will ever be.

Hi, i am sure there are lots and lots of awsome ideas about how to do a card game related somehow to MD. The problem is that all the card games i see are almost the same and all are trying to copy Magic the Gathering initial concept, one way or an other. An other game with cards is not what i have in mind. Even if its posible to create it in a tottaly different way than current card games, there are so many card games that i want to avoid this. I have other type of game in mind, something mixed between cards and something with tiles like GO game. The concept presented on that page is only the core logic, and i stoped it for a very long time because i had no time to continue it and the player feedback was low. If you have an ideea out of the ordinary, i am interested to hear... but an other card game is way to commercial ideea for now and i am not interested in it. An other possible continuation of MD in an offline environment is the MP8 level, consisting in a real world quest. The "offline" md game could be a set of rules for that stage and instructions on how to setup such a thing, because i do have some awsome tips and tricks that could help anyone setup a good RL quest / treasure hunt. I am not in a hurry with any of these ideas, for now the "black letters" are the one step that follows in the offline direction, and after that i will see if all the things could summ up together into somehting or not, but i am not expanding MD into a cardgame just to make it bigger or to be like all the others.

ok, others that want it too, please post here -- Fenrir, you are done, please check and let me know is something is wrong. Good luck using it.

For the sake of fantasy... no, the energy consumption wouldn't be high at all. The only real problem is creating an isolator for gravity, after that, its simple The isolator i believe it can be inside a highly ionized field, to ionize a few cubic centimeters of air you need the power of a microwave oven, focused by a parabolic dish made of metal, same principle as a sattelite dish. There might be other ways, but still something with electric energy acting as a shield. (Ofcourse you would need also some blue LEDs and a startrek type sound to make it look like a hightech warp engine A coil shaped in such way that is not forcing a magnetic field in any direction, will still cause a bipolar magnetic field but its direction, or shape, will be free from the actual coil. Take for example a toroid, or create a normal coil arround a feric core and then unite N with S. The new N and S will be perpendicular on the previous formed field lines, but will have some unusual properties. A speheric electromagnet with the coil placed in such way that it will cover all angles in equal proportions, will cause a magnetic field very sensitive to any outside influence, and the ionized space inside it will act as a gravity shield canceling all outside influence. In the worse case the device will only cause a globular lightning , and thats enormous fun too )) looking forward for more ideas, maybe some can find documentations related to this? I am sure having lots of fun here

I have no clue where to post this , it could be the archives, but i want to see replyes, so its the forum .. but i can't find the right section for it .. so if anyone knows better where it should go , please move it ------- What is SF (Science-Fiction), what is Fantasy? ... I think it is an outburst of ideeas and theories that have a solid base but the continuation is shaped in a direction that is not strictly connected to that base. Its relaxing, fun, creative, to set your mind free and imagine things in the way you would like them to be. As long as you realise that the contact with "reality" is officialy lost while thinking to fantasy stories, it OK. You should not "lose" it and start to believe that intentionaly flawed ideeas are the real ones. During my (short) life so far, i imagined things that could be possible, but most of all are interesting to think of. Such theories i hold for myself and only from time to time i write so that they can be used as source for improvement and to put some gears inside my mind at work. Why not, maybe one day such a fantasy/SF theory will have all its intentionaly flawed aspects fixed and turn to reality...at least its fun to hope so. [b]The Transposition Traveling Device[/b] [sub](again ..SF/Fantasy theory!!!)[/sub] Each space, regardless how small or big or where it is placed in the universe, has a signature. Imagine space as a web with differently shaped structure lines depending on the position. On a uniform developed spider-web you would know in any moment where a particular fragment is compared to its center, because the spacing of the wires will change in a predicatble way the further you go from its center. In the same way, space is structured in a way that makes it unique in every portion of it. Gravity changes space. In fact Gravity IS altered space, we see the density change in space as gravity. For example if you have two baloons one with high pressure and one with low pressure, and you conect them by a tube, the pressure will ballance. In the same way objects fall down on the ground because space is curved towards the center of the earth, as it is towards any heavy object in space. Three obvious forces change space, one is the Earth, one is the Sun and one is the Gallaxy that both spinn in. Other less obvious forces change it too, but these alone are enough to prove that each single bit of space we get in contact with has a different pattern. My assumption is that space signature works the same way as human/living signatures and that the transposition principle applies here too. If you have one signature of a person imprinted in an object, that object will act as an extension of that persons energy field, meaning that if you effect, sense, change it in any way, the changes will mirror in the "original" person just the same (my base explanation of Voodoo magic). If you could change something (water, self, surroundings) to have the signature of a place, you could sense what is going on in that place and sort of "Be" there with your "spirit" so to say. But..what if this can be applied to a more physical use. The TTD device brings the space signature of the space occupied by an object (note how i said it) to ZERO. In a way manages to isolate all influences given by all gravity modifiers upon that space and brings it to a uniformly ordered structure without any actual signature. It brings ZERO value in the space fingerprint[sub] (see note 1). [/sub] The device is composed of two main modifyers, that could be created so to work in one move actualy (or two, is the same result). The next step is to recreate the signature of an other place and imprint it in the object. It litteraly means to shape the space structure, altered by gravity (or better said seen as soubtle gravity changes), to match the changes in an other place we target. The result of this is that once the space occupied by the object reaches the exact pattern of the other space, it will coexist in both places at the same time (!). The third step and probably the most dificult one is to cancel the onject in the TTD device so that it will exist only in the target location. This can be done also by controlling the zero space signature. Its basicaly a teleportation device as you can see. The mechanical construction of it is also one thing i fancy to imagine, it would require little energy to operate and can by done using electricity but not in the common sense of it. Gravity has as result changes in magnetism. I suspect changes in magnestim/electricity can have the same impact on the object space as the "original" gravity, without interfearing with the space structure (meaning magnetism acts like , but is not changing gravity). Electricity causes magnetism, so in a logical (probably flawed *cough*) chain, if space changes/gravity causes magnetism and electricity changes cause magnetism too, i believe electricity can be used to form similar magnetic patterns that will imprint similar space pattern changes in an object. The precision of this field should not be created "bit by bit" because its probably impossible to recreate the field with such a detail in every space unit of the object. Ah thats it .... i must say i love SF theories I do have plans of the TTD since i was a kid, and i have improved ideeas of how it could be built, but i never had the time (and probably the required insanity) to actualy buy a few kilometers of coil and build a perfectly centered sphere created out of this coil, and change a microwave to focus waves to a single point inside the sphere and ionize the air there splitting electrons from atoms and build plasma for a sec. Of course there is the reception device, that must be able to record the space signature in a place, then feed it to the sphere so that it gets re-created in the plasma field inside it ...and much more..... pfff...like i said, ... i love SF Thank you for reading ------------ [sub]Note 1: Zero can mess any equation. poetically put, if someone manages to control the Zero point within any system, the entire system will obey to it. It takes two infinities to ballance out the zero point, but its an illusion ... imagine the ends of the "number line" to be actualy fixed and not infinite and just zero to be true "nothingness". The infinity will form towards the center not towards the ends, because true zero does not exist. You can lower the numbers as much as you want but they will not vanish. Zero, unlike anything else, i think, is the one thing that can make sense in practice but not in theory. In practice is easy to make something zero, because that something stops to exist, but zero is not "part" of that something. As soon as you manage to create zero, it becomes a gate to anything. Thats why in math, zero can destroy any theory and prove 1=2 or whatever you want. In practice, if i have ZERO apples, i can easyly say i have ZERO gold coins ... both its true [/sub]

What do you say about the new way of using principles based tokens (more skills/ve VS principles tokens) ?

i am reading this topic very slow because i have to check and imagine what each of your suggestions might do. The ln() increase sounds good, it was in plan for a long time, but i am currently not too happy to how fast it drops, making principles useless after a certain value. Keep posting, also react to the changes i will post on the newslog, but remember i will reply late to this and i might also change some of the announced things if i encounter better options suggested by you. Thnx

Here we will talk about Factions, implementation initial setup etc. I will need one faction to start testing on, are the Pirates still ready? If yes, please report crew, intentions etc, if not, next faction.

very true, stupid me i cared to explain her anything at all. She doesn't even have something clearly to demand or argument, and the "private" discussion as she wanted it stoped, i am guessing because lack of any possible reason as usual. I do not need to have "testicular frotitude" (nice one btw) against players, i can have enough after i conclude i did everything to make myself clear. I don't need to protect my image in front of her or anyone else so i was taking my time to explain her those things, but again, useless. Its disturbing and provoking to see someone makign such a big fuss and posing in a victim when i know the situation is not at all like that. I can't simply stand and say nothing, but its true i could end this in a more agressive way. the one thing i am sorry is that i was planning this time to write something much more interesting than to answer to a allready defunct issue such as this.

I do not have persoal issues with you. You started this public so you deserve a public answer. You try to make it now private when you fear others may realise what kind of crap you are saying. Trust me i have better things to do than fighting with you over a matter that you allready lost before you even started. p.s. in a private convo with me i suggest you call in Logan as reinforcement or you might get confused in your own arguments lol. Sorry but after all the headache you given me i cant stop not mocking you just a little bit.

My name for you is Mur, not Manu, you do not know me in person and you realy do not know Manu... oh right...you fear the spotlights, no problem, i will continue this in private if you think its better..maybe you are to shy to present your rantigs for others to judge. Just do not waste my time to much because you allready did so.

No it can't, i know it sounds the most normal way to do but an unlimited number of docs will tottaly mess with the way docs are now planned to be.

Please elaborate the subject here, make sugestions, complains, etc. Try to keep it organised. MODS: please update this with conclusions, thank you.

Dear Amoran, (or Trista, since in forum you say you are OOC, whatever you like best) Some things i will tell you are pretty obvious for most except you but since you do so much effort and agitate so much on this matter i will tell you all this (again) so that it will be clearly stated both for you and for those that hear your, sorry the expression, crap. As far as i can see your view on the situation is that you created artworks for MD for 9 month, received RPC status, then you got screwed up and had that status taken away and your reputation trashed. Its a very disturbed view on the situation and even if maybe you enjoy posing as a victim i feel i have to try once more to explain you my view of the situation, maybe it will help you stop this bullshit and make you more ..relaxed. 1) You did not get RPC for making drawings. RPC is given based on many reasons, yours was your involvement and dedication to MD in that period, artwork creation was a bonus and if you remember our discussion back then i told you this and that your artistic skills could help you greatly with your RPC role. To get a RPC status is almost impossible (or that difficult), to HOLD it requires moral qualities that you trashed yourself, i must say with great effort and for a stupid cause. 2) You are not at all such a great artist as you like to sound you are. I am sorry i have to tell you this news. When GlorDamar was sending me your avatars along with other avatars other artists in MD created, they were acceptable, not amazing. Now that you shout so much that you worked 9 MONTH, i am very concerned all you came up with was a list of very very few avatars and an alliance logo...in 9 month! Thats beginners work. There were people sending in A LOT more artworks of amazing quality. 3) You got payed for the work i used in MD, meaning the alliance logo and the avys. If you drew anything else that Glor sent me and i am not aware of or missed to pay you any of your work that i used in MD, please let me know. (oh yes ..i think i didn't payed you that birthday cake, let me know if i should) 4) Artworks you do in private, or for your personal papers, are not my concern. You created a picture gallery where you probably listed all the drawings you ever made in your life, because i do not recall to see any other creations from you so far. You can't present them you did because they sound as beeing commissioned by me for MD and they have nothing to do with it. Thats why your topic description on those listings will change untill either you remove the ones not related to MD or you splitt them in two clearly named galleries. Your private efforts to draw something for MD do not represent work done and used in MD as you like to make it sound. A lot of players to sketches on their papers and they are not "owned by MD" they are just artworks those players did for their own use, same as you did. 5) When you fight for someones ideeas you share the outcome. You tell me now in pm that you did not believe i was stealing art as you accused me in public, and that it was all Logans ideeas...funny...i do not need to know that anymore. You fought for these theories and acted as a coward when i gave you the opportunity to talk about it and see whats on your mind. You trashed MD image on OOC discussions with other players, and continued to do so even after the situation was clearly wrong, then you were surprised you got demoted. Logan had nothing to lose because he was allready demoted for a tottaly different reason, but you were so ...i cant find other word that stupid ... that you blindly believed his crap and fought in public for ideas that were clearly wrong for most. In my view its very clear, Logan screwed you dragging you in this shit along with him. This doesn't change anything because you as well as any other human beeing able to think, are free to your own decisions and thoughts, and if you picked yours to be the ones of Logan, thats your choice and you pay for that. Results Your actions and the situation created by you is indeed of creat concern to the community and especialy to the Artisans Guild. I say this, because from now on i will be extra carefull to prevent such situations in the future and that will greatly affect the way future Artisans will be treated. Congratulations of almost destroying a guild that i was hoping to flourish. Don't worry, artworks sources i have plenty, and of top quality. I was hoping that in time this source to be from within MD, to make it like a ..ecosystem ..so to say. For your knowledge as an artist, when i commission artworks to an outside artist, they get payed the same, and the artworks come in packs such as 50 avys or 20 scenes, and not 15 avys in 9 month. You will soon see what i mean. I reached the conclusion that MD is a very sensitive organism. In order for it to exist properly i must know the sources. I must know the person i am working with face to face, know him/her as a person before i know him/her as an artist. I hope this cleared out some things for you and for others listening to your bedtime stories. If there is anything else that needs to be cleared out tell me. I do not want you to feel hunted, trashed, and that you did work for nothing and there are two reasons i see... One is that you realy believe this yourself, so i explained it here all, and one is that you like to sound you are a victim, in which case you will continue with the ranting regardless of reasons or explanations. My RPC promotion criterias are very strict and very adaptable at the same time. You will never get there again, because your pshycho-logical profile was hiding a lot of ... instability .. that i did not taken into consideration when promoting you. Other realy potent players do not dare to dream of that status and you wasted it for stupid things. The good news for you is that RPCs will slowly vanish while the wish shop grows and any other player will have a way to get rpc abilities through their efforts and without my personal confirmation. RPC will remain as a decision/leadership group and the source for wishpoints. My warm suggestion is to stop putting more and more crap on your reputation by posing in a victim that people clearly see you are not. If you feel so offended and wish to leave MD, nobody stops you. If you still want to continue, you also are free to do so. In case it will be ever needed, I will let others judge possible things you will do to avoid beeing subjective. I am not seeking for any revenge against you, but you clearly do. I hope i don't see after other 9 month a complain that you seeked for revange and still nothing, it would be a terrible waste of time in my opinion. Mur

What is the most wanted new feature/bugfix/change that you wish for. Only one? (mods, feel free to edit this topic in any way, add polls, update this post with the winning wish etc, thank you) EDIT: Mod for overview.

I allready thought of that when doing this. The solution i could came up with was to have separate q docs for each. I am afraid that if it would be made in any other way, quest creators will just keep a list of quests forgetting to maintain them. If there will be a independent q doc appearing for each quest, they will be more careful , i think. Also its easyer to integrate in the current system and is much more flexible. For example there could be independent q docs for different types of quests. I could start it allready but i am not sure how many need it and how many will just invent short new quests just to get an additional doc ... i must think of rules to give this out, maybe the wish shop ?
