Latest, and my last memorial of the current Greats. Savelfuser Savelfuser had humble beginnings, started as an average fighter in the time when the great fighters ruled all. One day, or so the story goes, he was confronted by the Ancient Ghost, a spirit with a massive amount of knowledge. The Ancient Ghost joined the body of Savelfuser, and by this act Savel gained a spiritual purpose and the ability to heal those in need. With these two gifts, and the wisdom of the Ancient Ghost, he set out to gain followers. Over time, Savelfuser gathered a relatively large following of adepts, and later worshippers. Always helping those in need and spreading his religion, Savelfuser stayed in Loreroot most of this time. His religion rested in the supreme power of the Ancienet Ghost, and in helping all those that needed assistance. Over time, his following grew large enough that he was able to start an alliance, named Savelite’s Church. The Church was dedicated to the same things Savelfuser had been preaching for months. They were also dedicated to researching the ancient artifacts of the land, and uncovering them. They went on a search for Medusa’s Amulet, although unfortunately they did not find it, nor did any of the adventurers that attempted to help them. The Savelite’s Church was a peaceful religious alliance, although they made it known that if threatened they would not hesitate to retaliate. War, they said, was the bane of the world, preventing the transfer of knowledge and the growth of minds. In time, Savelfuser, like the ghost he was, began to fade. In his later days, Morquor began to take over the alliance, but in time Morquor faded as well. The Savelite’s Church lives on, a testament to the great ghost that spread his religion, teaching, and protection. Comments? Time to start on the notables Awi

This is what Mur was talked about what his new combat system that he never quite finished. Let me look for the link... http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/4308-new-combat-concept/page__p__33455__fromsearch__1&#entry33455 In that he talks about a new system that involves more than 1 v 1 action. Your version is a slightly more concrete type of implication of that idea, and I don't think it's what Mur has/had in mind. Awi

I think those medals should stay on our avatars, those are special. These would be a new page, like next to the PL, and show up in the right hand sidebar. This is where Mur says that, "a section within the [b]interface[/b] with medal looking items," Suggestion for how to add in new medals: Instead of letting just anybody add medals, because I don't envy the person who would have to check all those medals (and it might end up being you, and that would end badly), I think that it should be a silver cost or gold cost to create a medal. That will severely reduce the amount of input for the metals, and it makes sense. In fact, you can even have levels of medals (Gold medals cost 1 gold, large silver medals cost 2 silver, and big silver medals cost 5). Awi

Yeah.... there have been some 4 AM nights.... I definitely will join. Awi

I say no, because I love the drawing feel of the game. 3d would take away all of that. Edit: I wasn't the one who gave you negative rep. To prove it, I shall give you positive rep. Awi

And.... Phrog Phrog was an interesting and slightly bizarre character, and one who often went unnoticed. He was a characteristically cold man, always looking for warmth. When he talked with others, which wasn’t very often, it was when they needed assistance. His search for inner warmth inspired by the sight of SmartAlekRJ’s flying drachorn lead him to be carried to the Way of Cleansing and then burned alive, accidentally. His spirit wandered the land for a good deal of time, riding on the back of Perrobotillo and enjoying the sunshine given by Aqune, before being carried to the Drachorn’s layer. Once there, his spirit was reunited with the drachorns, and he gained the power to free the drachorns. Phrog’s quests were rather simple, and mostly had to do with fire. Phrog was obsessed with fire, reading about it, writing about it, and talking about it. Phrog was a close friend to SmartAlekRJ, perhaps because of his ability to give drachorns. When and why phrog disappeared is largely unknown. He was seen last at the Gates to Golemus, and it is possible that his spirit went searching for other sources of warmth. Maybe one day he will return to the land, eternally searching for warmth. On my list for greats: Savelfuser. Awi

No, no ranking system. There are three categories, but there will be no "1st Great" or "2nd Great". All Legends are considered equal, all Greats are considered equal, and all notables are considered equal. With that, I present Nelya Setesh (Guy's was used as a framework, but it is written by me.) Nelya Setesh Nelya Setesh is most widely recognized as the leader and creator of the Guardians of the Root, the main alliance at one time in Loreroot. She was widely recognized as a charismatic ruler, and during her reign as leader of the Guardians of the Root there was never an attempted coup or instability as was seen in the days following her departure. Nelya was a nymph and lover of the woods of Loreroot, caring for it and protecting it whenever it needed someone. It is said that Nelya spoke the language of the forest, and heard it when it needed help. Nelya also was fluent in French. She preferred the woods to fighting, and as a result stayed for the most part out of the wars of the land during the fight between Guerrila Golemicarum and the Shades. She was a kind soul, and while preferring trees to people, she was known for having a good deal of politeness, never turning away someone that wanted to talk. She was also a lover of puzzles. She created a good deal of puzzles for others to solve, and they were infamously difficult. Of the three puzzles she created, only one person was able to solve all 3. She was also an artist, her puzzles brightened with vibrant color and beautiful script. As a lover of difficult problems, she came to the assistance of Bootes when he was attempting to solve the mystery of the Pillars of Harmony. As she grew older, Nelya ventured less and less out of Loreroot, until eventually she wasn’t seen again. In her absence, the Guardians of the Root lost their stability and their figure-head, and the power vacuum was filled by Raven, then Amoran, and finally Firsanthalas leads the Guardians of the Root. To date there has been no major upsets during Firsanthalas’s reign. Nelya was a charistmatic and calm leader whose legacy of devotion to the land of Loreroot will likely be emulated for years. Corrections? Awi This is Eden's memorial, written by Angurvadal. I haven't seen him in days, so I suppose I will add it for him. Eden was a quiet character that passed through the Realm of MagicDuel and quietly disappeared, the memories of his existence now ancient lore. Not known for his talkativeness (loquaciousness), Eden kept to mostly kept to himself. His character was only known to his friends. To the rest we was a restless beast tamer. Over time he acquired and trained many creatures of the land and constantly sought new creatures to add to his collection. His skill and knowledge of the creatures eventually led him to becoming a creature tester, working with Muratus del Mur to develop and bring in new ones. Eden's intense training and development of his creatures eventually paid off. Sacrificing some of his tamed beasts, he elevated his statistics to immense numbers. They even surpassed the statistics of Wodin. Eden quickly became a feared warrior. This increase shocked the community and spurred others to attempt to match his results, inspiring them by serving as example that they too could become great warriors through vigorous training. Though he had great statistics, Wodin was characteristically stronger than Eden, although each won fights against the other and different points. After this he joined the Loreroot Alliance as one of the protectors of the land. Eden's contribution is hard to determine as only Lands of Loreroot can speak for it, since many who worked with him have also left. Eden disappeared for mysterious reasons. His status is unknown: he may have quietly passed away, been taken by the creatures he always sought to tame, or ventured into unknown lands in search of even greater beasts and roams there to this day. Regardless, he is quietly remembered for his achievements. Corrections? Awi

So, I have some news. Upon further reflection, I came up with the idea (on the suggestion of Jester) that I have a few categories in the Book of Ancients: Legends - those that will always be remembered, the greatest players of MD. Greats - those that left an impact Notables - those that maybe are not "great," but deserve to be recognized. The Legends and Greats are almost done, with the exception of Phrog, NelyaSetesh, and Renavoid. However, the Notables I haven't even started. Who is first on my list? Savelfuser, Lightsage, phlegmtheorem, and all the others. Awi

That would be great, Mur. Thank you very much. Awi

They now work on all browsers! So you can close this, Chewett, thank you. Awi

I toyed with the idea of an i-frame (thank you shadowseeker) but I don't know how to use them that well... So... Awi

Let me try and explain. For every paper, RPC item, or something similar to that there is a byte limit. Bytes are characters, images, that sort of thing. Anything that you can see takes up bytes, which is the memory allotted on your drive. For the papers that byte limit occurs inside the actual coding page, so if you go over it, it just deletes the bottom part of your code. For RPC items, it doesn't delete the bottom part of your coding. Instead, it throws a fatal error telling you that you went over the byte limit. If you upload an image too large using the MD image upload, it lets you know right then and there that you have too many pixels. I believe the limit is around 400x400, but I'm a little iffy on that. There is no fatal error. Does that make sense? If you don't get it, don't worry about it. I'm fairly sure Mur does, and he's the only one that can do anything about it anyways. Awi

I'm back Awi

If any of you have passed by the scene north of the MDA gates, you might have noticed there is something new recording on the small plant to the right of the road. It is a log of all the stories told to the Oak. The only problem is that the coding only works for Firefox... and not for IE. The same presumably goes for the Book of Ancients at the Clash of Ages. Is there anybody out there savvy with their coding, and knows what the problem is? Please contact me. Thanks Awi

I would like a Q doc as well. ID: 95773 Playername: *Awiiya* I have one unused WP. Awi

Lately I have been having problems with memory allocation and being able to get enough space to put everything I have to say in papers and RPC items. Earlier with papers I hit the limit, and it deleted everything I added after a certain point. Seeing no way to get around it, I just split the document up into two (this is my K document, by the way. It is the reason I have alts in it). Yesterday I hit another limit, this one a lot more concrete. [attachment=1094:Picture 2.png] I'm fairly sure Mur already knows about it, because I'm fairly sure fatal errors are sent to him. However, would it be possible to up the memory allocation a bit, or give certain people more memory on their documents? I know of no one else who has ever hit the limit (with the exception of IAB, but only because he linked to lots of others pages, had a refresh, and other silliness). Thanks. Awi

Public works! Okay, that's all the bugs. A HUGE thank you! Awi

Thank you very much Mur. The root of the bug, as I discovered, was that if you join a K document group without first adding something to your K document (content and a title) then you would be invisible. So, maybe add an extra check that doesn't allow someone to join a K document group if they haven't first made a K document. As for the unable to read public K docs, that still is happening to me. I have no idea what is causing that one, but I know of no one who has a public K document that works. Awi

I'm going to say I wouldn't like it for one reason: I have bizarre taste in music, therefore whatever a normal person (or abnormal) would play I probably wouldn't like, so I wouldn't want to listen to a radio with music I don't like. The interview thing sounds cool... but who are you interviewing, and what do they have to say? Just seems like it will end up being that not many people, if any, want to be recorded and played aloud. I dunno, maybe it's just me. If you do get the interviews to work, then I would listen to them, and not the radio. Maybe a podcast? Awi

Both bugs are still a problem. Awi

Yes, I get this all the time whenever I move, fight, or do anything of the sort. Awi

Okay, here is my decision. I want to make absolutely sure that the people who get into the book deserve to be there. As a result, I will add no more people for the time being. This stands until someone sufficiently changes my mind on someone (Savel. Still waiting for the research that I couldn't find). I am not saying the book is complete; it is a constant work in progress. However, for the time being, that work of progress has no to-do list. Awi

The problem with that, Grido, is that is all he has done. You can list his achievements in one sentence. Awi

I am considering doing Stormrunner, and I considered doing Savelfuser. I may choose to not do Stormrunner if I don't find enough information, which is exactly what happened with Savelfuser. I already looked for information, found none that was factual, only a story. Therefore, I say no to Savelfuser, unless you prove me wrong with factual evidence of what Savelfuser did. I am absolute on this point. I have no idea who phlegmtheorem is, and this is the first I have heard of him. Why is he worthy? Awi

Of course they are subjective. I am the one writing them, therefore I have absolute say in who gets in it. Do you think I want to waste my time on something I don't think deserves to be written? You have to remember, I am not paid. All of what I do is voluntary. Fair enough Burns. I will put him on hold then. He also quit relatively recently, so he may still change his mind. I'll add Jonn to the list, and Perrobotillo. Awi
