Here are Fyrd's tokens. Ledah didn't have EG, KF, OB, SD, GB. Note about half the tokens didn't even show up at 100% - would have been zero but what about 99% slider....? Note Purple Fog in above test didn't work because he was alone. Anti-Freeze will be hard to test, as it does not show up here. Note possible bug on both BloodDrop 2 & 3 since 0% slider was only 1 initiative point vs. 25% slider on initiative giving 8-14 points. Ledah's is more clear - up then down. Further more on BD2 while 18.75% is 3/4 of 25%, the calculated Defense and Attack bonuses given are not right. 1133/1939 = 58%. 414/625 = 66% -- drops too much. Emerald Glare is wacky. Regen drop from 113 to 32.25 (only 28% left) and Defense drop 3303 to 2376.75 (72% not 75%). EG depends on the creature in opposing slot, so this is not a proper test. KF, OB, SD, GB. seem fine.

Mystery Quest Adventure Series
Fyrd Argentus replied to Fyrd Argentus's topic in Contests, Quests and Adventures
Mystery Quest: It has come to our attention that "Red Flyer" is also a brand name of a toy wagon. This was not intended to be a trademark infringement and is in fact not legally so since there is no possible way to be confused between the aforementioned product and what was meant: a red-colored piece of paper posted on a bulletinboard. Since so few have gone after a fun but easy wishpoint, however, we must assume there is more to this than logic. Happy Adventuring! -
No, losses is the plural of loss. Loses is the "3rd person present" form of the verb "to lose". Looses is 3rd person present of the verb loose which means release (where the adjective loose means "not tight"). So, the player looses his knators upon the enemy but loses the battle and thus increases his losses. Pronounced LOOOO-ses, LEW-zez, LAAAAW-ses

too many "rules" instead of "consequences".

I'll repeat something I said on another thread... I think it should be allowed, but I think you should lose alliance loyalty if you do, and something should stop you from going negative - either a mechanic or a threat of being kicked out of the alliance.
-
This tool description in Loreroot is all messed up. Chopped phrasing, repeat, etc. I don't know about other places that tool might be found.

I will auction off a $5 credit package for the highest number of any RP Items offered, minimum bid is 5 items since I can get that in the shop. Will take best bid in a month, or maybe earlier and repeat if I like what shows up. If you have some item that you think warrants special consideration, contact me directly.

Please close this post. If you need to exchange coins, I'll help if I can.
-
Thank you much, Mallos. I was in error, the gold notes say it's 15:1 also. I will hold off on selling my silver notes, for now, as I only have one of each and may need them as templates. I have something in the 40's of silver just now. In light of this information, I am revising my offers/bids: I will GIVE 15 silver for a gold. I will TAKE 15 silver for a gold. Anybody disagreeing with the 15:1 exchange rate would be well advised to take up my offer (one time only).
-
That doesn't actually meet my goal of establishing a market rate, and with less silver I'd be in a worse position to do that. What else can I do to help you with your need there? Surely your misdeed can't be that bad if you're posting about them here?
-
My ultimate goal here is to establish a fair-market-derived exchange rate silver vs gold, for my own nefarious and secret purposes. It used to be 17:1 but the gold notes {say 25:1 no, 15:1. Sorry, my old eyes tricked me}. Who knows what is fair now? I want to find out. So, for a limited time, I will offer to trade gold for silver, at a rate that will fluctuate depending on interest, until an agreed upon exchange rate is settled upon. I ask that anyone post a "bid" for what they're willing to exchange here. Of course feel free to trade directly, but if you do, please let me know the rate of exchange agreed upon. Accordingly, at this moment, I offer the following bids (one trade, then I change my own bids). If I hear nothing, I will narrow the offers.: I will GIVE 17 silver for a gold coin. I will TAKE 25 silver for a gold coin. Please post orders, counter-bids, comments, etc. in this thread. Cheers!

The food issue
Fyrd Argentus replied to Muratus del Mur's topic in WARVENTURE - Turn based PvP strategy game
I have not played this game but am a student of military history. Time scale of campaigning is typically far shorter than one planting season. Campaigning happened just at the time when the crops were vulnerable and armies sustained themselves by foraging. Food held at the end of a campaign was gathered and stored at strategic points that were fortified, and towns grew up around them. So my suggestion, each turn do production, then track what is foraged by moving armies, then store what is not taken by them at either a strategic point, or off-board as a score, for use in future turns. Unless of course you want to get into tracking logistical units and supply depots etc..... And yes you could artificially say your fields produce at the beginning of the opponent's turn. -
Who is familiar with www.Jigidi.com? You can upload a picture there and it turns it into a jigsaw puzzle (free). Wouldn't this be a cool element of a quest - go there and solve a specific jigsaw to get the clue to move forward in MD? Copyright issues look okay....

The Principles page refers to "Enthropy" with an H. All the tokens refer to "Entropy" with no H, which is a real thing in english thermodynamics. I always assumed this was a made-up word, or else Romanian, but now I think it's a typo. Let's be consistent. Probably other places....?

These rhymes were rotated out of the MOTO on scenes. Perhaps if they are good enough, some might be rotated back in for variety, or used elsewhere. Perhaps not.

I didn't say GWI was finished, I said I hadn't the ability to go any further by myself. Still need tool images, riddles fix, 6 opening scenes addendums, anything else we decide is buggy like maybe the RP obelisk, and the hover texts. Warning taken, but what I've done is erasable by wiping my 17 clickies, and that one sentence on the sign. TestPilotA got the balloon to work. TestPilotB is hanging around hoping to learn to navigate it with assistance across the bay. My partner on this disappeared. There is currently no AP cost to operate clickies that do not relocate you, it seems. The hover text only activates if you lie and say there is an AP cost, and it shows all the land loyalty info and viscosity. This is a bug. What I want is hover text without AP formula when there is no AP cost. If a clickie really does need AP, then the bug or hack or whatever is preventing that - the AP cost is not actually taken, or so it seems. Mur agreed "A curious box" was no longer needed (newbies can't choose names with numbers in them anymore), so it was replaced by my wet cardboard box clickie. Changes needed before discussion of pushing for a grand opening are listed on line 1 above. Plus, some culture changes about how everyone should react to the "doorbell" functions, which are now triggered by the cardboard box clickie. We need people thinking about helping welcome & assimilate newbies. "Reassembling mental shards at MDA" I'm equating to getting your papers and filling them out, as an act of forming up your RPC/self image. I hadn't thought about the mis-match in language there. Need to consider if this is serious and worth changing a word or two on this, on GWI or MDA.

This thread duplicates one in private club, Quest Creators. I have written the attached code so that anybody with minimal or no coding experience (and access to clickie coding) can create quests that take advantage of clickies with keys. Let everybody else know how it works for you in this thread. Questions anybody? Happy to help customize, or add more generic features for future quest creators. Fyrd’s Generic Quest Code v2.docx

How do I view the spelldocs I have unlocked?
Fyrd Argentus replied to Else's question in How do I...
A "spelldoc" is simply "knowledge of a spell" as opposed to the actual magic that happens when a spell is cast. Unfortunately there is no physical "document" that shows the spell or explains exactly what happens. Search the forum for articles, or ask someone about that. If you go to the compass and select "Magic" from the whirly menu, then click on "Outer Circle" you will see a list of "spelldocs" you have (titles only). You must chose and enter the words or phrase you wish to use to activate each spell. Don't use this phrase in everyday chat. It also shows how many casts you have used, and may use maximum, each monthly reset cycle. You can also get an abbreviated version of this list as a reminder of your magic phrases directly, by scrolling down below the chat and clicking on "~Spells~". To cast a spell, you must have 300 or more heat, and type the chosen phrase followed by the exact name of your target, no punctuation. -
Mystery Quest Adventure Series
Fyrd Argentus replied to Fyrd Argentus's topic in Contests, Quests and Adventures
We have a first winner - Ledah took the wishpoint, and a bonus colored creature! I'm offering choice of a gold coin or colored creature (both if you get the bonus) for second place. Third place will be down to just one or the other. But the point is -- have fun! p.s. Anybody may propose a new storyline - a prize if yours is implemented. -
The scarab symbol on the right edge of the screen has two projections. The one to the left shows Vital Energy, the one to the right shows Winertia. Both are slider bars that show percentage of max in bright orange. Black numerals above the bars show current and max values. This is clear on a computer, I do not know about mobile interface.

Foot Race Challenge
Fyrd Argentus replied to Fyrd Argentus's topic in Contests, Quests and Adventures
Congratulations to Else, for going a full month without any further challenges. Winner and Grand Champion of the Foot Race Challenge! The record now stands at 3 minutes 8 seconds. That is certainly worth the wish point! -
Mystery Quest Adventure Series
Fyrd Argentus replied to Fyrd Argentus's topic in Contests, Quests and Adventures
Hear ye, hear ye! Fyrd and Ungod hereby wish to announce the grand opening of the first in a series of MYSTERY QUESTS. To begin the Mystery Quest, Episode 1, go LOOK (password) at “The Billboard Kiosk at Ash Arch” inside Loreroot then EXAMINE (password) “The Red Flyer”. Every clickie starts with LOOK, then gives a second password where choices open up. This quest is open to anybody able to get into Loreroot, but don’t repeat it with an alt, of course. A Wish Point will be awarded for the first to solve the basic anyone who solves the total quest, with an addition of a colored creature while supplies last if the bonus element is picked up. Contact Fyrd if you think you’ve won. Prizes will fall off with additional winners, but it will always be good for at least a pickle, and Should be great fun. This is not difficult, but should provide an entertaining story. Additional prizes: 1 pickle for each typo. 1 sc for each inconsistency found in the dialogs. WARNING: Clickies are temperamental under the new interface. After typing a password, you must hit the “Speak Words” button, not just a Return/Enter/Linefeed. When exiting a screen, hit “reset” then “close” (do not reset the LOOK password then go directly to the second password. Reset, close, reopen). If the bottom still shows an empty entry box (instead of an active password and a “reset” button) you’ll need to clear out and try again because the clickie won’t work right if it doesn’t show the current password. Sorry about all that. Additional episodes will be opened at sporadic intervals, starting with different colored flyers at the same location. We hope this will become a fixture on the PermaQuest list. Should you wish to write a mystery story episode using the same cast of characters, contact us. That can be considered a separate quest, with its own rewards! Good questing, and Good Luck!
