  1. Thanks for the links, I was actually unaware of some changes made due to being inactive :))

    What do you mean by one sided activity? I'd imagine with more targets, combat oriented people would stay logged in more, which would encourage other folks to participate too. I approximate a 20% online people increase (from 10 to 12, nice magical number, MD apostoles)

     

  2. I think it was introduced originally to avoid abuses such as ally members using 'jump to leader' to a remote location and then they get to train for stats which would threaten the balance of power in the world as we knew it :D But people could drop the badge and then train, it was just abuse with extra steps.

    Since MD is in a period where everything is changing and reconsidered in a more practicle way, perhaps this issue could be revisited... For me personally, it would be okay for ally members to be able to attack each other.

  3. By sacrificing creatures (some are better than others) at the altar. The more wins they have, higher the stats. 

    If they have tokens or creature shards, your stat reward is multiplied. 

     

    You can also increase stats by spending credits in the Shop, when you buy stats modifiers. 

  4. Every medal signifies some accomplishment, and they are mostly distributed manually. So, you need to achieve medal prerequisites for an admin to consider whether he should give you a medal or not. 

    Most often, medals are received during the birthday festival. 

  5. My first forum interaction was in February 2009 responding to Sagewoman's wall posting where she demanded I update my profile :D

    And then I responded to Gargant's topic which asked people how did players get their username, after which I immediately started posting on 'new ideas' for MD (kinda funny, didn't start to grow roots yet but I'm sharing how I got my name and how can the game get better :D

  6. You're right, there's a big difference.

    Though I'm not convinced the blatant copying you mention is that all-encompassing and mainstream, some of the specific pieces you mentioned seemed more inspired by rather than copied (samurai jack for instance), but maybe I'm wrong. 

     

    Just to clarify, I'm not defending Hollywood, I just like try to add more perspectives to the table: so what if we have copied movies? If we are not aware of the original, in our perspective we are seeing something new? 

    If people weren't seeing them as new they wouldn't watch and such movies wouldn't bring money and Hollywood wouldn't shoot them. So it's not a waste, as long as it's a copy of a good movie :D

    The important thing at the end of the day, if you enjoyed a copy-movie, is not to idealize people behind it, but that should be the case with anything,people are never perfect, geniuses that are wonderful human beings etc, there's always some uncanny detail lying somewhere. 

    I liked Samurai Jack, I don't necessarily think it's the most brillitant piece made by unbelievably creative and original people
