  3. Put them in a no-creature illusion, probably with a little briskness boost, which can't be put to an end unless they leave their ally. btw, dst already provided the solution they can already take, and mostly just don't want. It's not like it was hard to keep out of fighting... if you really want. Imo, they don't need any help to do that.
  4. pretty much out of coins now, close please =)

    Archer Dmg

    yeah, no, i didn't check for the usual stuff before starting the topic... here's my 'check for bugs' protocol: things make sense? no different fights? no tokens involved? no (actually, just none that matter, but... well, no) luck? no ability used on target? no a sudden disturbance in the force? no reproduction impossible? no any question answered with yes? no => bug => report if the answer to the last question was yes, there wouldn't be a report i'd ask the same question first, though^^
  8. Send me offers any way you like, my funds are limited, but i think i might have just enough for at least one of those =D
  9. Since you are going on about me... I've actually asked Shadow, and repeatedly talked to him about the changes i made to that signpost in time. The major bits are copied from his rules, and whenever additions were made, or the order changed due to changing priorities, i've asked him either before changing and he wrote things himself, or i asked him to have a look at the sign and tell me if he wanted things another way. That project is totally not on my hands, it's just on my signpost because that way there's just one script running in it, which makes things look fancier and more signpost-ish =D

  11. Applying 100% of *Burns*'s energetic influence Applying 0% of Darigan's energetic influence *Burns*'s Dark Archer III does damage to all creature(s) of Darigan and: - Walking Tree receives 1280 damage and remains with 120 vitality *Burns*'s J.D. does damage to all creature(s) of Darigan and: - Walking Tree receives 1270 damage creature DIES! For reasons unknown, J.D. currently deals less damage than DA3. You guessed right, J.D. is a CA, and supposed to deal 'generally more' damage than DA3.
  12. Hail to No one! May No one live forever! Happy bday =)
  13. and apart from what the people ahead of me said, have a look at the time stamp on the first post
  14. I hate riddles without proper answer! *pouts* And i support Zleiphnir's thought, a pony would be cool =D Apart from that... even a size 0 observer needs something to observe with, so yeah, i see my size 0 eyes =))
  15. He, no benefit from closing ggg? You wish... People once again fight for getting better, and actually cooperate instead of bashing on idlers, and you say there's no gain? Probably not for you, because you now need to play to get better, instead of putting up a mouse-macro, if only in your head, to get better Balance is one of the targets of MD, of course everybody should want it, and quite obviously weaklings should NOT have it... I mean, do you get your diploma when you enlist to university, or after you're done? When balance is something you and me and everybody wants, the active will be there, and the inactive won't. Because it's supposed to be like that. And when you are playing inactvely, you won't have to bother about the people who actively play anymore, because they don't have a gain from attacking you, as simple as that. You won't beat them just like that, but they play against each other, and not against you, so who cares? As it is, active and strong people can choose to not be balanced without losing major benefits. Which puts them in a situation to attack anything at leisure, because they'll never get into honor issues, and THAT in turn pushes weak and less active people off balance and into skill damage. If balance was a state people wanted to be in, they couldn't afford to attack those far out of it (far meaning 200 losses, not 990). And if somebody gets more than 200 losses off balance, it's been done on purpose, and they deserve to suffer. They wouldn't be the first with that problem who overcome it.
  16. Happy B-Day! I want to hear more of your impromptu stories once both of us have more time again =)

    Xp Bug

    Good man, you think only me and shadow can give xp to people? I for once have never, ever, got any special ability from Mur, i only have publically available tools to work with. I'm good at what i'm doing, yes, because i've had a lot of time to try and get better, but it doesn't take an artist to draw a picture. Sure, the amateurs might not have the fine lines that make it a work of art, but the general picture is the same. Anybody you cross can do immensly annoying things to your account, and when you're playing more than one account, you can rest assured that people can and will find out, and concentrate their efforts on the account you care most for. Basically, anybody you ever annoyed can do something like that to you, there's no special power or strange ability in it. It's not nice, but if life was sweet, it'd be called candy.

    Xp Bug

    You think i'd disclose secret stuff just because you have no clue? I can do 1m in one go, this process can be repeated as often as i wish. And i'm not the worst thing to happen to somebody. I could do that while you are offline, in a sanctuary, on day of tranquility, or in another location than me. As long as my victim has at least a single stupid creature, i can. And i bet other people can, too. Of course, without any traces you could ever find. That's how evil MD is when you are on the wrong side of the force.
  19. There's Lost Puppy, too! Or... Dinnah, as some call him

    Xp Bug

    Some people can attack you without you being attackable, and any jerk can force xp on your person without giving any to your creatures And i have seen considerably lower stats on many mp5, don't worry about that... if you have brains, you don't need brawns xD
  21. slow down, a lot. As it is, i firmly believe that this one life is all i got, and i want to do all kinds of things that sound funny and interesting just because i wouldn't want to get old and say myself 'hell, i never snorkled with sharks, i didn't ride a Monster at 180 mph, i never learned to surf etc.'. If there was more than this lifetime, i'd take it easy, do things slower, more thoroughly, and probably find them more enjoyable, instead of trying it a bit and stopping once i learned how to. Live fast, love hard, die young!

    Rp Judges

    Oh, how i love offtopicness... but what i love even more are the stupid characters that put all kinds of magical stuff, evil darkness, badass background and whatnot on their papers, and then help little crying babies, or even joke around with the selfproclaimed demon hunters and the like. And to spice things up a bit, they are incapable of casting any spells at all when asked to show their powers. Judge people not by their papers, they never stick to them. And if you try to judge them, don't let them know they are being judged.
  23. no, it doesn't, because it gives a bonus to people who are out of balance. if balance was a state people wanted, they'd get a lot of negative honor for attacking you when you're just meager 100 losses off balance, and you wouldn't need to worry about the veterans attacking you anymore. the point is not that newbies should have a chance against vets, but that vets have an incentive to stay balanced and leave the off-balanced newbies alone.
  24. pokepoke! [quote name='Burns' date='03 February 2010 - 10:56 PM' timestamp='1265230603' post='53783'] new input to get my reputation lowered: Both balance and tokens screw our combats, and not just a bit imo. Balance is not attractive, and tokens overpowered. So, i suggest to combine them to probably solve both. In my head, it'd make sense in that way: All tokens are set to work with just 50% of their power by default. By being in balance you can improve your tokens to get full power, steps to and from balance working just like the bonus reward. e.g. perfect balance makes +50% on token power, summing up to full present power, 1 battle away from perfection makes +47,5%, etc. As added bonus, you lower the opponent's token power by up to 50% by being balanced. Same system as above, -50%, -47,5%... Figures base on present full power, which is assumed to stay the same and the base for all %-calculations. Example of how things work together: >Perfect balance against off-balance: tokens of perfect balance work with full power (50% normal plus 50% balance bonus [-the part they lose for being attacker in case]), tokens of off-balance work with 0% power (50%-50%) >off-balance vs. off balance: both sides have 50%, no boni for nobody >balanced vs. balanced: both sides work on 50%, each gets 50%+50%-50% (normal plus bonus minus opponents bonus) >perfect balance vs. 10 battles off: perfect has 50%+50%-25%=75%, 10 off has 50%+25%-50%=25% token power Sounds evil, doesn't it? I like that... Why that way? Because for any normal player, it doesn't make much of a difference if their tokens give them full bonus or half, the difference is not _that_ much, and they still could pick if balance pays or not for them personally. But if people want to play in the highest class with their fully tokened crit-boost rits, they have to play balanced, and therefore leave the newbies alone when they can't afford the honor-loss anymore. And if they don't get balanced, well, then anybody who is can make their tokens practically disappear for their fights. This is not nice, and a lot of people will hate it, but if one of my weird ideas still makes sense after i read what i wrote, it's definitely worth being posted xD [/quote]
