  1. " I'll be back when things get exciting " How many players are saying this to themselves? A listeral ton.

      Stop it now, and lose some weight! Apparently you weigh a listeral ton.

  2. MP6 had a helper role in the past, when there was more than one so they had to work to stand out. Calyx of Isis started the MD University and the dojo to help new players. The MR Frat started GGG to help themselves but were eventually forced to go public so they ended up helping tons of new players (I know because I'm one of them, for you whippersnappers or those who forget). Back when alliances would actively recruit, new players were a wellspring of untapped potential. Also perhaps you forget, this is MD. It is certainly not unprecedented for players who play their role well to be rewarded with abilities to support that role, and current LHOs have a big head-start on anyone else looking to fill a helper role. If it proves impossible to continue the tradition of the live help button, it's still possible as a regular player to be contactable by noobs 24/7, but you might have to get creative. In summary: I strongly disagree. Whatever Mur has planned, MD can adapt to right itself.
  3. Sorry, where was it mentioned that current LHOs are being forced into Gateway Island? I've only read the announcements asking for volunteers. The new LHO manager has decided to make radical changes to the group, and you seemingly don't accept those changes which is ok because they're voluntary. Because he's a nice LHO manager (not like the evil Jonn), he'll let you keep your position for now, but eventually your position will be made redundant. At least, that's my understanding. Obviously removing LHOs as they exist now leaves a void, even if they're replaced by gateway guardians. What could fill that void here on the mainland?
  4. Is the three member minimum still being enforced?
  5. What constitutes a "short" time?
  6. Fixed
  7. I would like to address some points in the recent announcement on takeovers. As one of the realm's top takeover artists, I have never been given any "reward" for the efforts I put in other than the personal satisfaction. Just want to make that entirely clear first of all in case any had cause to wonder, or were reaching for pocketbooks . I have nothing to say about illusions as a method to takeover at this time, that has nothing to do with me. However, hanging invite, meaning an invitation that was sent to someone but never accepted, that is not seen as a viable takeover method? That's ridiculous to me. If the leader of an alliance is too lazy to check the invitations and cancel one that looks funny, they deserve their alliance to be taken. Is there some reason this is not viable? This sounds to me like a call to Role Leaders, whose role in takeovers you failed to explain in this announcement. Does this mean Role Leaders are no longer acknowledged?

  9. My opinion remains the same, regardless of the account's owner or intent. By the rules written in-game and precedent as I know it, the account should be offered to rename itself, if that is denied for some reason, it gets banned. But who really cares anymore? Clearly this is just a setup for jokes like "How many blackshades does it take to get to gateway island?"
  10. Ask whoever wrote the restrictions page. Or perhaps, whoever might enforce it nowadays...
  11. Thanks for the confession, now I'll assume it's true. From Restrictions page: Seems to me an open and shut case. The account should have it's name changed.
  12. I watched the first episode of an old cartoon again recently, and one of the things that struck me the hardest (besides the nostalgia, I mean) was how the teachers all drank their coffee in unison in the staff room, as if it were a sort of ritual. Recently I've been drinking more interesting coffee and again, every time I make it it's like a personal ritual. Over the past year or so, I've also tried out various brewing methods including teabags, french press, cold brewing and the plain old fashioned method of mixin' up grounds and water in a pot (and in those automated machines, but that hardly counts). As far as tea, I had a brief stint where I thought really hard about what really is a tea and how could I make my own, but quickly gave up. I do enjoy a cup every once in a while, my favourite is a weird lime tea, but I'll take a peppermint or green. Ultimately though, nothing beats the first Timmies of the day. Nothing.
  13. Did this ever happen? To do with the MP6 Token of Promise item that a few people have, I think?
  14. It's cooler how it is now
  15. Leixer, blackshade and I tried them out around Christmas, and they were working fine
  16. Source I know this isn't exactly what you're asking, but I found this essay on the origin of inflation and skimmed around a bit. Wikipedia also has some interesting anecdote-y sounding explanations, one of which sounds more similar to what you're asking
  17. Let's take Eon for example. Pretend Eon is a lazy vet who somehow has access to lots of pure gold, maybe from some friends. He can sit in whatever location this processor is placed and log in only to load it and retrieve GCs. Eon has ~1630 AD, so divide by 60 days for two months, you get approximately 27 GCs that Eon might have gotten for "free" (without paying credits, voting for free credits or trading) through his lifetime. That's enough to buy a nice rare creature and still have something left over. If I look at MD as a business, this would be a bad move.
  18. No, you had it right
  19. Daimon 13 silver
