Kyphis the Bard

I play a lot of online games, but none of them compare to MD. I was surprised when in my first few days in the realm, I was already able to help younger players out. I was enthralled by the idea of player run quests (I even have a biggie in the works that is getting nearer completion). The idea that, if I applied myself, I could do almost anything within the game, is amazing. In any other game the only way to do that is be the creator. Mur, Thankyou. You do an amazing job. For a[n essentially] one man team (now two) to create something like this is insane, but not only that, you have kept it going for 5 years. That is an accomplishment to be proud of. I only hope we can continue to be good lab-rats for you

I am sure I am clicking the log out button and not the idle button because every time it brought me back into the game on this account I repeated the process around 10 times making sure I was actually hitting the log out button. Eventually it stopped and hasn't happened again to me since very early this morning [/quote] If you are on IE I have noticed this as well, it is related to cookies. Log out, clear cache, then go to log in and it will let you use the form to change accounts

But if its location wise, i would assume that location, will apply to all automatically. What would also be applied to that location is 0% pray power automatically also?. [/quote] If it was tied to a location, there would be no need to automatically set the prayer power, it would just be fighting as if tokens where never introduced. Also, I fail to see how having it tied to a location is abusable, since it would also applied to the person attacking as well as the one defending. If you are willing to enlighten me on this matter, No One, please PM me (since posting any such possible abuse would almost certainly be a spoiler)

I don't think Kitteh speaks either, but I haven't seen him in a while sadly...

[quote name='Keilerian' date='23 July 2010 - 07:27 AM' timestamp='1279830463' post='64380'] I am a writer and on another website I've been told by way too many people that words of beauty just flow from my mouth. I look forward to imparting some of that beauty here as well. [/quote] If you want to incorporate your penmanship into your character, drop me a line... I spend a fair amount of time at the Marble Dale Park If not... well, I hope to see you around the place

If this was going to be Hard Coded into locations, I'd suggest every location that was directly adjacent to a sanctuary. However, I suspect it would be far easier to simply add an option at ritual creation to have tokens on or off, with the default setting as on (for random rituals). While for the most part most people wouldn't use it (who wants to be weaker?) people like myself, who dislike tokens, and anyone wishing to participate in a Strategy based Tournament (rather than a Strength based one) would still use this a lot. I think that if this was available, there would be a lot more combat based quests. Another option is to have an honour/Experience reward for fighting without tokens, based on the number of tokens that would have been used where they not disabled. Since you can have almost 150 tokens in a ritual, I would suggest having the first 12 tokens have no bonus, and every token excluded after that have a 1/4% experience increase (it will cap at about +33%, if not exactly that), and an honour increase of 3 (capping at 396, currently). I think that that sort of incentive would encourage most players to not only disable them, but also get them. This way having tokens will be like using a burst: useful when you Really want to win, but otherwise making training easier.

If I KNEW there was going to be a new life, and another and another? I would do everything in my power to go as slow as possible. I am getting Married next Spring, and tomorrow my fiance and I are signing the papers to our new apartment. I may not have a job right now, but I have a well padded resume, and that is sure to change. I love my life, with all its ups and downs, and I love the woman I am going to marry to the end of the earth and beyond. I want to spend every second I can with her. [quote name='Burns' date='23 July 2010 - 05:22 AM' timestamp='1279822936' post='64370'] [b]slow down, a lot.[/b] 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, [b]do things slower[/b], more thoroughly, and probably find them more enjoyable, instead of trying it a bit and stopping once i learned how to. [b]Live fast[/b], love hard, die young! [/quote] >.>

[quote name='Keilerian' date='23 July 2010 - 06:38 AM' timestamp='1279827521' post='64375'] I could not find anything on the web about Angiens. [/quote] That is good, since Angiens are only existent within MD and we are not supposed to post things outside of the MD community like that (Spoilers and the such, I mean). We have an Archives, Forum, File Hosting, and Game (chat) site for anything we could need to discuss, going outside the game environment is entirely unnecessary.

We will miss you, Shara Come back soon Please I will have to try not to get infected with Wood Grubs again in the meantime [quote name='(Zl-eye-f)-nea' date='22 July 2010 - 08:56 AM' timestamp='1279749408' post='64325'] Sharasiesta...thats allowed Keep it real, I'll keep...er...the five fingered lady...company till you get back.

[quote name='Totenkopf' date='22 July 2010 - 02:22 AM' timestamp='1279725775' post='64302'] yeah, i just remembered i've been meaning to post about this too for a long time - since the drain principles thing messed up my principles and i lost darkness, my creats get from darksky 0 stats and lose 0 stats, which kinda defeats the purpose of the token - maybe it should be if you don't have darkness, then get stat increase and another stat decreased based on another principle (light?) or your highest/lowest other principle or something ps - maybe this should be moved to bug reports pps - is there any way of losing a principle completely in order to gain another? [/quote] Yes, it is in the announcements.

'Appy Birthday

The tokens have been missing from the replay for as long as they have been in play, far as I know. If you want to know what tokens your attacker used against you, you just have to read the log. (I know that in your example above, you where the attacker)

[quote name='The Phoenix' date='18 July 2010 - 03:31 PM' timestamp='1279427482' post='64108'] Name: The Phoenix Land: Marind Bell MP : 4 Edit: I just noticed that the fight rules now is with 0% pray power and no token so i withdrawing. I dont have any capable creatures for defense with 0% (and believe me,i really don't have ), and even spells allowed i also dont have any..,Based on the tournament system which is 1 on 1 and using best of 3 win count, then only 1 player will get a 2nd chance to do the attack initiative, and if you only will get that 2nd chance by lucky then i can't go with it,and i hope i dont missed any meaning of that system..Thank you. [/quote] In this regard, I would suggest that whoever has had the lower margin of winning should be the one to attack the second time. (also, what's with the bold after Pheonix's post?)

*chuckles* Thankyou Darigan, I will certainly try my best if you pick me I do so enjoy supporting quests

Keith Moon, Tarquinus, Sagewoman, Windy, Innocence, Pamplemousse, and Jester are the people I consider to be better judges of RP. I also like to think I am a decent judge of RP

[quote name='Blackwoodforest' date='16 July 2010 - 06:51 PM' timestamp='1279266697' post='63996'] Please be aware, making me start a wallpaper will cost you two silver in advance, which will be counted in the endprize. This is only a security fee if you change your mind. No pay back. [/quote] I think it highly appropriate if you are asking for any of the payment in advance, that you post an example of the sort of work you could do for us. The better the quality, the more likely you are to get business. How about showing us a Wallpaper you would use for yourself? [quote name='Blackwoodforest' date='16 July 2010 - 06:51 PM' timestamp='1279266697' post='63996'] If you are interested, please send me pm. [/quote] If you can show me something worth my while... maybe you will get a PM. Otherwise, no.

Happy Birthday Akasha

Thankyou My fiance and I are off to the local Schnitzel Hauss for dinner, and my mates all got together to help me have a good time as well See you all tomorrow, I'm... off, for the night

[quote name='Blackwoodforest' date='09 July 2010 - 05:22 PM' timestamp='1278656526' post='63692'] I faced this today as well. Grabed a torch, logged out, logged back in and now I cant click the clickable in the Wasp Tower interior. (itemdispatch) [/quote] The restriction is in fact meant to run until the end of the contest, regardless of if you still have the torch, so long as you picked one up. This issue is only a bug if the restrictions are in place AFTER the contest is officially ended.
