Amoran Kalamanira Kol got a reaction from dst in I would like to keep the Confused Santa Gift July 28, 2014

Since we speak on the subject of Morphs, while I quite understand that unreleased creatures are not supposed to be given so carelessly - I am finding this sudden urge for elder players in the realm to hoard the morph creatures completely unreasonable.

Sure, there are more of them, their rarity has decreased, but many many players were granted gifts- if you have extras why not put them toward quests instead so that younger players are given a chance to get something unique and interesting too?

I have removed my artwork from the Artisans Guild thread, if anyone would like to see my art, contact me via PM, Yahoo Instant Messenger, or by email.

I am still willing to do artwork for Quests and Profile pictures.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

Amoran Kalamanira Kol got a reaction from dst in New Ggg? October 1, 2013

Personally, I see nothing wrong with young mp5 gathering together in a difficult to reach location for an hour or two to train their creatures. So long as it doesn't break any rules regarding alts or otherwise, there should be absolutely no reason to go and destroy what they are doing.

I would like to ask the veteran mp5 to do something. Create an alt, train it to mp5, and see how well you do currently in the game. Many seem not to understand exactly how difficult it is to train as a new mp5, or how difficult it can be to even keep yourself balanced. You don't enter as a new mp5 with all of the fun toys such as drachorns or angiens, maybe not even booster creatures. You enter with basic creatures and perhaps a few shop creatures/shop abilities (depending on whether or not the young mp5 in question goes through a daily round of free credits) and are forced to face a group of experienced players who more often than not have tokens, who are constantly attacking you with big flashy creatures.

Sure, maybe the GGG system has caused problems in the past, but a group of players who are simply attempting to get to a level in which they can battle properly should not be a terrible issue.

I would suggest doing something like this only a couple times a week, for a limited amount of time, say.. two hours. That aside, I feel it is a good idea to have something like this occasionally.

The veterans of old certainly had to do it the difficult way, but keep in mind that it is more difficult to tread through the game now than it was in your time.

Amoran Kalamanira Kol got a reaction from dst in Regarding Magistra and the CoE July 20, 2013

I do not know who started this rumor, but I will say that I do not believe Magistra to have had any involvement with the takeover of our alliance. Please note that it is unfair to the player (Magistra) to have such rumors spead about her. She and I have had our bumps in game, but she has never sought to destroy the Eclipse.

Yrthilian, MD likely cannot ever be what it once was, but continues to evolve.

Poe, I hope you truly do not leave, but if you do I am certain that many would understand. You will certainly be missed by me.

Amoran Kalamanira Kol reacted to Phantom Orchid in Interim Dream Quest June 25, 2013

Interim Dream Quest - Part I

Phantom Orchid had a dream (or was it only an illusion?) in prison, and needs your help to find out what it means.
Unfortunately, right now she dreams she is a dream, and her dream (or was it only an illusion?) is all jumbled up.
Solve the Sweet dream, or some sort of nightmare? puzzle to begin your journey,
and be prepared to plunge yourself into the sea of the subconscious.

Where day becomes night, and night becomes day
Where there is madness, where there is confusion
Where lines and boundaries are blurred
And emotions are likely to run high.

Poe is effectively trapped and can offer no assistance at this Time.

(I will give at least 1 gold coin (if/when I get out of jail) to the first person who finishes part I. Not sure if the TKs are still running or whatnot, but this is open for sponsorship if anyone is feeling generous :) )

29.) It's not dangerous to smoke nightshade, magicduel is actually trying to thin the earth's population by poisoning kid's minds!

30.) The forum rep actually matters.

I wished I had been able to participate in this. Unfortunately I was not aware that this quest was going on until gonza contacted me. Lovely artwork from everyone, and I enjoyed seeing everyone's portrayal of the crimson blade pirates.

A fugitive! Look out!!!

An exchange with council:

[cquote]
Hello Phantom Orchid,

Your release date is based on the period of time you are expected to stay in jail, This therefore means since you have been escaping the release date is continually pushed back. The expected jail sentence was a month but since you escaped multiple times during that we still consider your jail term unfinished. Since it is well known that escaping jail risks more punishment then at the moment the jail sentence is still a month of continuous jail time.[/cquote]

Well known? I was not aware of this, and I have been an active player for 4+ years (I first stepped into the realm 1546
days ago). Escaping jail risks more punishment? You seem to be alluding to something above and beyond the established fugitive system. This is entirely unclear to me.

[cquote]

Mur's plans for you, in regards to porting you out knowing that you will be a fugitive, but that's part of the decision he has taken for the role and he accepts that you will be unable to complete your jail sentence if you wish to follow this route, so for the time being, having chosen the path with Mur, you shall remain a fugitive. If your circumstances change and we shall keep an eye on the time you spend in jail.[/cquote]

"Having chosen the path with Mur you shall remain a fugitive." I did not _choose_ for Mur to port me out periodically, and I have no idea why he does this. I had no choice in the matter, and would have stayed in jail and been done with the sentence (of a length I was unaware of until you replied to my message) and been done with it twice over by now.

And I have even been back to jail a dozen times trying to serve my sentence like a good prisoner. Despite the belligerent suppositions of dst/no one, I was not pissing on, around, or even near anyone (or everyone). Sorry, but water sports just ain't my thing.

[cquote]

However we will consider reducing your jail time if you explain how you escaped jail. We are interested to see what methods you used.[/cquote]

Jail is not new for me. I helped test the toxicodendrite creature there. When I was there before, I could escape via two different methods. Now, neither method works anymore, and I know of absolutely no way to escape (neither does anyone I have asked about it) due to new changes. So if I explain, which you already know - and for the sake of appeasing your curiosity - that Mur teleports me out periodically for reasons unknown, you will consider reducing my jail time? This logic is absolutely astounding.

I did not choose to become a fugitive... I'm just playing the cards dealt to me. Although I am beginning to question the integrity of the dealer.

Amoran Kalamanira Kol reacted to Phantom Orchid in "Outing" of Alts June 11, 2013

In the vein of being a vet - they should know better and be a little more respectful/considerate. I personally hate when someone tells me who is an alt of who - it taints my character's unique perspective of the others' unique character and interactions, whether "I" like it or not.

It is just one other way that the magical experiences of this realm get squashed, in my experience.

Amoran Kalamanira Kol reacted to Kyphis the Bard in A really really annoying layout shift on menu expand June 10, 2013

Just because it isn't well done doesn't mean it isn't a good idea :P

Although personally I am in agreement, the way it shifts is very annoying. Good idea, needs refinement (I especially hate when I load the page and am looking at the mood panel (or any other page), only to have it start rising up the screen while I am looking it because the thing is closing. Worst is mouseover pages like Active Vets.)

Amoran Kalamanira Kol reacted to Phantom Orchid in Nightfall at the Oak Fort June 8, 2013

Nightfall at the Oak Fort

The air was stiff within the cold, dank walls of the prison cell, yet, she was surrounded by many familiar characters. It was one of those dreams, a swirling wall of shades from which there is no respite, in which she becomes haunted, consumed almost by the ghosts of forgotten memories. She tries to counter this by cultivating memories rich, like gardens, from the compost of experience; however, this is a dream in which she feels totally out of control as if forced to ride in the passenger seat of her own mind.

The walls dripped silent echoes, a peculiarity not lost by her, as she fades in and out of consciousness. In one moment of brief lucidity she pulls her hair back and looks up from the bench to the familiar scrawl “Crazy Mike wuz here” etched into the stone wall. She reaches up and begins to trace the indelible marks with her finger when suddenly she is struck by a sky-splitting sound and falls to the floor.

She finds herself standing in front of the Oak Fort.

: Phantom Orchid approaches the Fort
: Phantom Orchid sits among the gnarled roots, slowly, and then stretches out her weary legs
: Phantom Orchid pauses, then takes a deep breath
: Phantom Orchid inhales, then slowly exhales and smiles as a crow perches itself on a branch above her head
: Phantom Orchid centers herself in the present, worlds away from dank jail walls, sharp tongues, and broken dreams
: Phantom Orchid opens her Book of Dreams

She dreams. The shades return, but, interestingly enough, this Time none of them glance her way. She feels her pendant glow dark against her chest and, quickly, she curls into a ball against the base of the Accursed Growth as darkness engulfs her. It feels like a mirage. Some clarity, a few details, but whatever focus of attention exists vanishes as soon as it comes. She does not know this Time why she is here, and it perturbs her. So she waits.

After waiting for what seems like years, she sees her. She is crossing an abyss, and then she suddenly, fleetingly, remembers that this is why she’s been waiting. A stomachful of butterflies, a fast-paced heartbeat, a thief in the night.

“Ready?” she asks after a brief hug.
“Yes.” She answered. She has been ready ever since she had met that small girl with the three candles.
“Do you want to know where we are going?” she asks.
“No. It matters not so long as it’s this way.”

: Phantom Orchid closes her book of dreams
: nadrolski collects water
: nadrolski collects treebark
: Phantom Orchid wiggles her toes into the topsoil and feels her pendant glow warm against her chest
: nadrolski high fives lady Phantom Orchid
: Phantom Orchid blinks, then high fives the boss
: Phantom Orchid looks around, zealously, then returns her gaze to nadrolski
Phantom Orchid: Do you
: Phantom Orchid pauses
Phantom Orchid: *raises her arms* See that?

: Phantom Orchid thinks about how quiet it feels
: Phantom Orchid takes off her clothes, runs, and dives into the lake
: Phantom Orchid splashes around ecstatically
: nadrolski quietly enjoys NATURE
: nadrolski collects treebark
