[quote name='No one' post='34472' date='Jun 23 2009, 03:28 PM'][b]success is : achieving a goal[/b] .[/quote]
whose goal? and do you know of the goal?

ed - Incidentally, what is a goal? -
[quote name='Shadowseeker' post='34457' date='Jun 23 2009, 01:15 PM']Let's assume we have a plane where no time exists. How could you achieve success then, or would that be impossible?[/quote]
I don't want to veer off your subject too far here, but we already live in a plane where time does not exist, and incidentally, perhaps steps would be a better description of the stated concept. The greatest success is the achievement of the goal in the smallest number of steps or incriments.
I don't agree with it, as that would imply that the greatest success is achieved in the most simple way, but i would think that a more appropriate way of wording whats been said.

To be perfectly honest...if I took note of all the things people plant there as Bob's "friend" (ignoring that they may actually kill him...*cough*...as goodly intended as there were all the same... )...then the area would be a more dense woodland than Loreroot!!!
The only one I personally acknowledge was one Garg Planted at Xmas...and that's because it was Xmas. The others, I always rip them up - Ask Sharazhad.

[quote name='Burns' post='34071' date='Jun 20 2009, 01:28 PM']does Akasha against Amo stop now, and we start Logan against the World to keep ourselves busy? *sighs*
you know, i joyfully join such arguments if they seem to enhance something, but this seems to be going nowhere... in fact, to an even less interesting place than Amoran vs. Akasha, which had some point concerning the game at some starting point... whilst this is not concerning the game at all, it's just a guy who is really unhappy with Mur and acts out his frustration...
maybe someone could at least mention some point that's game-related in any way, else this might turn to a really boring flame-thread...
don't get me wrong, i love flaming, but there's gotta be some limit to it... somewhere... :lol:[/quote]
Akasha was responding to Amoran not because ti was "Akasha Vs Amoran" as everyone likes to say, but in actuality because it was Amoran doing somethng that Akasha felt was/is against MD as a whole and so needed someone to stand up for it. It was not an I don't like Amoran attack.
Logan is specifically being derrogatory both about MD and about Mur....and anyone else that doesn't agree with him actually which seems rather hypocritical.
I'm going to say this once. This is not "unimportant" nor "silly" as certain people like to state. It's very important. It's the decision whether you stand by and let someone bad mouth something you love, or not.
Z -
I really couldn't agree more with what Ailith has just so aptly worded.
People go on about the player base of the game, pick on Mur about how people are "dropping like flies" or how people are "Bored" well frankly it's nobody's fault but our own if we feel that way. Don't try to blame Mur for it. It's his world yes - but all that world is, is a platform for us to work with. He then chips in and adds things to that platform to increase the ease of how we work with it or to increase material gain for us, which is great. One of the amazing things about MD is how open it is to your creativity, and it LIVES on it. It isn't just about being in game and role playing, it's also about what comes from the game into your bones. For me, it acts like a muse, it makes me want to draw, to play music, to role play and to do things to let all of the other players feel that feeling I feel. Like when you meet a really cool person, and they light a fire in you. Having said that, that does NOT mean you should mess about with the atual basic structure of the game at hand, Mur controls that basic structure so that that feeling doesn't stop existing. And you sit there moaning on about how he stifles you. It makes me sick the level you are going to to try to break something and someone who has done something great. If you don't like it just go away, but you can't can you, because the fact is it still pulls you in and you can't stand that it does.
Mur gave us THAT. He has handed us something absolutely phenomenal, and to sit there and moan on about how oh no he's losing people or oh no he's causing people to do this that and the other. Grow up. Now I hate telling people to Grow up, i'd prefer they grow down but when your comments are embryonic it's just ridiculous. First making up little conspiracy theories, then spreading them everywhere you can possibly put them, then when you actually have a chance to ask the man face to face about your "concerns" you run away and hide until it's too late and then you come back crying to mummy and causing a fuss.
Just stop it. It's dull. I'm not swallowing it, I doubt many others are. This little game is ridiculous, have you opinions, thats not a problem, but don't try to spread them about a fundamentalist knocking on my door. You go on and on and on about how he's trying to stifle you, but he's letting you spout this rubbish for all to see on HIS game, how is that stifling you in the slightest? Logic does not fit here. It's plain to see, and you, Logan, act so pious, but I know from personal experience how unpleasant you can really be, and this pre-meditated speech of yours you so happily lay out in public doesn't fool me.

Immerse yourself in fabled tales of dark rooms, battle, and friendship in this choose your own story style quest.
Begin on your chosen path of five, and where you end, depends on the choices you make along the way.
Unless advised to do so by the text, do not PM me, everything you need to work out how to move on is marked within the text unless otherwise stated and I will not be offering any help with this, part of the quest involves you working those things out.
If you see the below image, it means that your password is correct, but that there is something you need to do for the next story part to reveal itself to you. What you need to do is hinted at. Your characters' general statistics at any given time will affect whether the next story section opens when you input the password, or whether you get the following image. When you have got the correct requirements on your characters' statistics, the story will open with the password rather than seeing the below:
[img]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp238/zleiphneir/Quests/whatsnext.jpg[/img]
The correct levels of said statistics are not told to you...you'll just have to work out what it is that you need to change....for example....if your life force, your VE, were very low, it may be unwise to allow you into a battle scenario.... The statistics you must hit are different for each MP level. Some people may never even see the above image, it all depends on what options you take in the story in relation to your characters statistics (VE, VP, Explorer points, Experience, Age etc etc etc)
If you have questions before you start, ask me here....the rewards vary, all paths lead to knowledge. Once you finish, I will ask you a series of questions. What reward I offer you will depend on how you answer, and what questions I ask will depend on which path you ended up finishing on.
To do the quest, go to the [u]Book at the Clash of Ages[/u] and Type in the word "[b]Define[/b]"

[quote name='dst' post='33450' date='Jun 13 2009, 09:19 PM']As for suggestions: I like the riddle solving. Also we can make it with 2 directions: 1 week you provide the riddle and the next one the enemies come with a riddle.[/quote]
This is their thing not mine....but I like this suggestion.
Z -
"Hmm....I will never trust enemies no matter whether they solve a riddle or not...however...I like this. I like that it causes another battle...a battle of mind....enemies brains against Guardian's brains. Do not expect me to participate. I am far too slow for such affairs.
I will NEVER agree to let you harm Tree, whether you solve a riddle or not. You should know that by now....

[quote name='cryxus' post='33271' date='Jun 12 2009, 03:03 AM']i think i answered most of those problems in my post... and mine is definitely through tremendous arcane effort. As far as help i think people are overlooking someone... oh well, i s'pose technicly im not eligible, i just feel inclined to make sense of the use of principles in magic...[/quote]
Sorry Cryx, your thought process on principles is interesting but I have to tell you, you haven't answered nearly half of what needs to be discussed. As per my having to ask a load more questions of everyone. So far, overall including information that isnt in this thread- the best, most thought through answers have come from ShadowSeeker.
"Technically elidgible"....as I said right at the start: It really depends on how much you put in as to how much you get out. In honesty, this quest is more for people who like to analyse, and enjoy roleplay. It isn't designed for those who work on Carrot and Horse ideals. Perhaps this is where it falls down in general...disappointingly enough.

aldwin30: Bob i wish for you the gift of movement
aldwin30: The only worthy and needed improvement
aldwin30: Sight would certainly scar your visage and grace
aldwin30: You would see the world living in disgrace..
aldwin30: Speech will denyof your ambience and solitude
aldwin30: Which will certainly erase my will and fortitude..
aldwin30: Hearing shall give you nothing but pain and suffering
aldwin30: It gives your a plethora of memories not worth remembering...
aldwin30: With movement you could come with me to a better place..
aldwin30: A place away from this one...towards a kinder and gentler race... -
Great idea with the time travel, but a little over-complicated perhaps in this instance. Lets veer off that one for the moment, maybe we can discuss that as a concept somewhere, make a new thread for it, seems like an interesting discussion topic - but I’m not on board with it as an action for this quest. Same thing with Philosopher’s stone – I like how you think outside the Box Eigger
It looks like a lot of you feel that we should be burying the ashes in order for Bob to absorb them up again – is that what you all want to do? Or do you want to create this “paste”? or...both?
If imagination is a key to the final shape and structure, then we need to have a unified ideal of the look of the branch, so I will need people to agree on the look please. Just a little comment for those who may understand it....something is always easier to imagine when it is right in front of you....
It also appears to be important we work out the “identity” both of Bob and of the damage. Comments please?
If energy consumption is important and balance is important...how do you think we accommodate this in our actions?
Now I never said it had to happen fast...so accelerating time is not necessarily important, Time exists and doesn’t anyway....but do we feel we want speed? If so that’s a whole new ball game and we need to have a discussion about the meaning of time and how to use and abuse it.
Has it crossed anyone’s mind as to who we might have aide us? Who in the realm could offer us advice? And also...the fact that some people arn’t going to want to allow this to happen?
Storm makes an interesting point in the use of Transposition....
And I will say this again as no one has mentioned it.... Consider the use of a person with an appropriate aura in relation to the element principle.

[quote name='Akasha' post='33200' date='Jun 11 2009, 06:27 AM']I know , back then was also a Steve name for him? Or that is another tree?[/quote]
Originally Steve and Bob were the two names that people called him "live in realm" as it were....some people still call him Steve on rare occassions ^^ but I stick by what I said...Jonn came up with calling him Bob, if you want to know why you'll have to ask Jonn when he's around

SWORD SLASH
Hand, grip tight, with all your might
Spirit, hear my soul-fed plight
Wrap around so stealthily
For none could be what we can be
You, an exten-sion of me
LEADER SPIRIT:
Come orange and black, engulf me
May that sound rise, may that ocean become me
One mind, one spirit, the voice of unity
For my eyes are yours, yours to see
SEDUCTION
Charm of wide eyed child
Stealth of hidden leaf
Animated vision
Pull that beggars belief
Simplistic soft sensations
Induced Hallucinations
From wanted Fascinations
Imbued to your elations
To be more than was thought of
To be more than a wish
When they recall their Autumns
To remember only bliss
BLACK WATER
Slide in and enter like silence
Your fusion, the passion of violence
A coating, so viscous and sticky in one
Your own mind will make you what you will become
PROTECTION
Stalk and have me in your grasp
Such a feeling meant to last
I pull from you the fire you hold
And send it back one hundred fold -
[quote name='Chewett' post='33133' date='Jun 10 2009, 06:31 AM']Perhaps your sentence should say Bob was NOT named via a forum poll
The poll actually came out that we should call him Sage.[/quote]
heh heh heh.....ahem....ah yes...but when the "decision" was made (dubious ground this), Bob was the leader no? It is only subsequently that "Sage" pushed up over isn't it?...and I've heard all sorts of ridiculous things about Bob's name anyway....so I'm keeping it simple - forum Poll, and Jonn....or if we prefer, I'll just cite Jonn seeing as that's who named him Bob I prefer Jonn's story to the forum one anyway.

[quote name='adiomino' post='33125' date='Jun 10 2009, 12:31 AM']Who named bob?
[color="purple"]Merged, please edit into your posts rather than making a new one - Grido[/color][/quote]
Bob was named via a forum Poll, which you can still find if you seek it out. Although in honesty I credit Jonn with naming him Bob. Zleiphneir doesn't call him Bob though, he calls him Tree, but I call him Bob
Where would your bugs live if there were no Trees Dst
Z -
Bob is the name that people have given to the Tree that stands on the path of Lonliness. People protect him for lots of different reasons, for each person, it is different...but our protection of him binds us. Some of us more than others. He is magnificent in every way.
For Zleiphneir (my character) and for me, the reasons are long and complicated...and perhaps not even I understand myself....but I will quote my papers for you to make a start...its a long read....but you asked....
[center]When you enter the world, you usually at least have you mother, or doctors, or an adopted family. You have someone around, or it’s simple, you don’t survive. As an adult, you don’t have such luxuries as those.
Unlike in the usual way...when we are born into THIS realm, the realm of MagicDuel, we are older than a baby and have nobody. Not a soul. We know no one and we know nothing. We are feeble, knowledgeless and often blind. We are, for want of a better word, a blank canvas. Alone, and unprotected.
When I walked this realm I found someone else who was like that, surrounded, but still alone. Damaged, and never fixed. Offering, but never being accepted. That someone, was Bob.
My affinity for Bob grew with each passing day, from the moment I saw him I loved him. He was my brother, my reflection, in fact, he was everyone’s reflection, perhaps they just didn’t realise that. I felt connected to Bob, and I would often stay with him a while here and there to just...be there. Words are all very well, but I always found the best thing someone can do when you are alone is sit beside you, and say nothing.
Astonishingly it appeared there were people who disliked this Tree, people who, for some unknown reason meant to harm him, meant to destroy him. This enraged me. It boiled my blood to see the hatrid they had not only of something so fragile and beautiful, but of themselves.
Bob is a respresentation of the life force of the very realm we inhabit, our first steps and our root. He is a mirror for each and every one of us, smashing a mirror in this instance won’t only bring you seven years bad luck, it destroys the image of you that stood within it. The feeling of sorrow for doing such a thing will haunt you forever, you may not even realise what that feeling is or why you feel that way.
I will not allow Bob to be harmed and I will not allow others to harm themselves by harming him.
Heed my words well, Bob is and will always be Guarded, whether it be by me or the many others who stand at my side for his cause.

[quote name='Burns' post='33081' date='Jun 9 2009, 08:21 AM']... you had that message twice, and i already wondered what that would be about XD
and then, Akasha is being bitchy sometimes, but almost never without a reason, so i'd like to hear what the other messages you sent her sound like...[/quote]
I also wondered about that myself, and I think Burns is correct; We are missing a lot of information and it seems very odd to me to post those messages on the forum. In addition to what Burns said about this particular thread of messages we are also missing other information, such as what has happened before with interactions. Also, saying you messaged her because she is an LHO seems a bit misleading to me when it's a personal question about a personal creature battle between yourself and Akasha, it isn't worded in an "Im asking an LHO a question" kind of way. I won't go on - the point is, something doesn't gel here.
[quote name='Yrthilian' post='33083' date='Jun 9 2009, 09:03 AM']I would suggest if you are not happy with how something is handeled then go
to the one in charge of the section.
For this particular issue you should have reported this to Grido as this is i beleve now
his responisablity.[/quote]
Quite right.
[quote name='Yrthilian' post='33083' date='Jun 9 2009, 09:03 AM']I have heard roumer that stuff like this is planed to get her into trouble. I can assure you of this if it is found to be true there will be big trouble.[/quote]
I just thought that was worth repeating, I won't comment, for now.

[quote name='Burns' post='33031' date='Jun 8 2009, 06:01 PM']and i'm missing, even though i always kill all guards when i pass by... oh well, Zlei wouldn't know as he's a constantly ally-less mp4 *hehe*[/quote]
You havent ever directly gone for Bob that's why you arn't on THIS list. It doesnt mean you arnt on any other lists I may or may not have....

I don't mind people RPing kids where BOTH parties agreed in advance that it would be part of BOTH of their story trails (which isnt that commun in actuality, usually one person decides and the other poor sap just goes along with it). I don't mind it, but I don't like it very much either, and as for birthing scenes, I just find the whole thing ridicuilous.

ed- for Ud - that poor sap sure isnt me. I dont go along with anything about my char i havent agreed to. Ever.
