Yoshi

Welcome back, and I look forward to meeting you!

[2010-01-25 04:32:15 - Alpha 9] Usable items can now be configured to return to creator (or a predefined account) when they exhaust all their uses. The returned items will show info about the last owner, such as playername, location it was when last used, storage amount (if used), and time of return. I am not sure for what I could use all these, but maybe they are usefull for certain type of quests or recycleble items of some sort. To make things clear, all these features are new feature of the inventory items. They are not yet used on the current items (except a few for test). I will start to use these new features to enhance existing and fure items based on your suggestions (forum) and based on how i think best. [i][u][b]I am aiming to make items more common for more players and turn them into an essential part of the gameplay and not just collectibles.[/b][/u][/i] I believe they were originally meant to be only rare very special things but now they are going to be more common.

Yoshi, protector/escort/whatever I am now, is present

He picked out the black stone and looked it over again as the memories came flooding back. He was reminded of the time he was with her on the beach, sitting in the warm sand, laughing, and smiling. He remembered her smile, her hair, her legs. He remembered walking along the beach, hand in hand with her, watching the sunlight reflect off the water, listening to the sound of the waves. She stopped every so often to admire a rock, a shell, or some sea glass. He laughed as he remembered trying to skip a rock, and failing. She laughed too, then picked up a rock and skipped it. It went across the water perfectly as he counted how many times it bounced along. Each ripple getting larger yet fainter. She turned to him and smiled one of her perfect smiles. He almost melted. She picked up another rock, just for him. He was going to try to skip it, but he stopped. He turned to her, and without saying anything, to her surprise and delight, he kissed her lips. That was the first time he had kissed anyone, same with her. They stood there for what seemed like an eternity, yet they didn't seem to mind. They were in love. He pocketed the stone, forever to be a memory of his first kiss, with his first and only love. They noticed the sun was just beginning to set, and so they stood there hand in hand, holding each other tightly watching the sunset. Principle of Cyclicity: New love cycle has begun. Principle of Balance: He can't skip stones, she can. Element Principle: Water. Fire in their hearts. Principle of Enthropy: Ripples dissipated. Principle of Imagination: Love. Kissing for Eternity. The whole thing is a memory. Darkness Principle: Sunset. Principle of Light: The sun gleaming off the water. Principle of Syntropy: Their love will continue to grow exponentially. Time Principle: Time stood still when they kissed. Transposition Principle: Sea glass. Smooth stones through erosion. (Not 100% sure if this is what you wanted but enjoy it either way )

Yeah but then what about the people that have items based off of their roles? I don't think that would be fair to them... unless the weight would only apply to raw materials.

*joins in with the singing* Happy Birthday!

I like those ideas MB. As for the beer thing, there could be one item that's like an everlasting keg or something, and it makes it so that you automatically get a pint of beer in your invent, and then once you either consume or give that beer to someone, another one will appear. Or you could even go so far as having ten or so beer glasses, filled when in the same inventory with the keg, and once consumed you are left with only the glass, which you then should give back to the person with the keg, or if you choose to, can steal or take the glass with you.

I can't vote... where's the "Mr. Rogers in a bloodstained sweater"... guess I have to null my vote then.

Uhm... if you want to idle there and not have losses, just don't heal your crits...

It was enjoyable up until the cryptic crossword, at which point I spent an hour or two trying to solve it and my enjoyment faded

This was an excellent idea... although the only problem is that there will be those that will not be able to compete in the slightest. You know, I was going to bid all my crits, all the coins, basically the essence of me. I won't though. The creatures I have are way too special to me, more so than any collector creature offered.

RJ brought up a good point, what about our birthdays? Yeah sure, maybe not everyone that signs up should get a birthday if they leave within a week, but once you've been around for a year by AD count, then it can be added to the calendar. Almost as an achievement/congratulations for it.

Yes it would appear that Mr Mystery is another one that is using a regen rit. ~V~ ~L~ Player You lost Enemy lost Rounds Time IN X X Mr Mystery 0 -44987 10 04-01-2010 13:58:17 replay Two 7 AD people were hit with his regen rit. The one has confirmed it hasn't deterred them, the other I'm not so certain. I will be having a talk with Mr Mystery next time I see him.

[quote name='awiiya' date='30 December 2009 - 05:16 PM' timestamp='1262211388' post='51477'] This is good, Cutler, except I don't know people's ID. The only easy for me to find out is to look at a PM of theirs... and if I have a PM... I can just reply. It's useful for when you need to send a message to someone and don't know when or where to find them, but I sort of like the idea of a postmaster running all about the land looking for people. Ah well. Awi [/quote] That may be true but this was intended to be used for people to get into contact with quest makers. In the quest topic all they have to do is add their ID and voila, you now have their ID to contact them if for some other reason you cannot. The only thing I don't like is that there is two post offices. I know that since there is two, it creates competition, both posts enhancing themselves to beat the other, but wouldn't it be better if there was just one Post Office? This way you don't have to keep checking both places and have it at one central location. I'd suggest merging both scripts (Cutlers into Chewett's) cause I like the simplicity and clean cut feeling of Chewett's, yet I like the Motto of Cutlers. Also, maybe in the name field you can also be able to put in the ID's of others?

I have a couple problems. Why do you have to immortalize your creature? Why can't you just get a page every time you upgrade your crit? Also, when seeing another's pages, you should just see the picture and name of it. Not stats. The stats is the spoiler part.

Winners have been chosen! Quicker than I thought but that's OK! First place is Totenkopf with his Killer Tomatoes. Second place is Princ Rhaegar with his Wartime 7:02. And third is Burns with his Unemployed Rage. Winners, message me at the GoE and I will promptly send you your rewards. Thank you to all that participated. This can now be moved into offtopic or something, and continue to be used to post any funny captchas that everyone comes across in the future. Again, thank you to everyone that participated and I'm sure next time you will read and follow the rules more clearly!

You know how every place has the [Visits here: xxx] at the bottom? Well what if we had a [Time spent here: xx:xx:xx] as-well? It would show you how much time you have spent at that location. You could even go so far as to having a link where Wishpoints Top is, called "Game Stats" or something. This link would show you your personal top 5 location visits and your top 5 personal time spent locations. It could also have an overall top 5 locations/time spent for everyone. Idle time may or may not be counted. Besides the programming work/amount this might take, I think it would be an interesting addition either now, or in the future, once other more important things are dealt with. What do you think?

CONTEST HAS ENDED I feel slightly sad due to the lack of participation, and the lack of rule reading. Nevertheless, judges are now informed to start, well, judging. Good luck to you all.

24 hours left till this ends. Don't forget about the rules.

Oh... I think you have to use all lower case letters.

Can't believe I'm actually doing this -.-. First attempt was me trying to play guitar and sing it... that didn't work out too well. This was my first attempt and like... I just did it too see how I sounded... realized I didn't want to re-sing it. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2g0usT5uAY

It will bring down your personal experience to 0 no matter what, and keep you at the current MP level. But why would you use it when you haven't hit the max? Get the most for your wish so to speak
