First of all, Merry Christmas council/bugs... You really know how to time things... Anyway, anyone bothered sending Fang a reminder before jailing him? It sounds like a big part of the problem here is miscommunication. Even Fang wouldn't be stupid enough to think he would be able to get away with holding back such massive amounts, right?

I knew it, it's the end of the world after all! P.s. Got the same problem.

Thanks Mya, and thanks all!

Happy birthday Fang!

Happy Birthday!

Hmmm let's see... Following: SAO Magi Zetsuen no Tempest Bakuman (No, not bakugan. Bakuman.) Jormungand Sakuraso Btoom Trying to keep up with Psycho pass Robotics note K Recently watched: Darker than black Fate zero Looks like Crunchyroll nowadays allows non Americans as well, so I guess it's time to step over. Also the reason I'm watching so many anime at once is that we simply have the best season we've had in ages.

Hmmm... I would finish some of the amazing features MD has/had, but aren't implemented properly yet: clues, spell docs, principles, AL, land loyalty (loyalty, not score), balancing fighting/stats (anyone can beat anyone), add a bunch of cauldron recipes, balance viscosity, new MP6, next chapter for the story, new start, bring back Torch competition (perhaps combined with LL?), significance of dead... and many more lost treasures of MD. Sounds like a lot? Yeah, so many things seemingly forgotten, but I'll into a bit more detail to work out the possibly most important part of it. Inner Magic: The idea is fairly simple. First we will need a number of extra clues. By unlocking a number of these clues you will be able to obtain spell docs. This is where things get interesting. Using a cauldron like system, taking principles and/or resources instead of just resources, we will be able to make rituals to actually cast these inner magic spells. This fairly simple (at least coding wise, as most things already exist, the actual writing of the clues and rituals is a lot more work) change should be able to bring back the spark of magic and bring back life to the clues, spell docs and principles, and expands a little on the cauldron.

It's cold outside, but even at the Drywater Temple the heat of the holiday season can still be felt. [img]http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/7386/mdchristmas2012atdrywat.jpg[/img] Snowman and scene are from MD, the rest is home made

Land Loyalty is no good reason to get citizenship, lowering viscosity even less so. If you want to organize another journey through the east, however, I would be more than willing to help out by lowering visc and perhaps providing tea to keep us warm through the cold winter days out in the east. p.s.

MD elections aren't all that complicated. You havea person or group of persons (Mur/council) who have the power to make the decisions. That group has an opinion, but keeps that oppinion to themselfes until all votes have been casted. Then they look if there are any arguments strong enough to change their opinion. If not they'll stick to it. This time public oppinion seemed to slightly favor Zen, but not enough to change their mind. Like I said in my eyes both are able to do the job well (although I was slightly disappointed to see the age limit for new TKs disappear) so the differences were purely circumstantial and therefore not enough to change their oppinion.

[quote name='The 7th Scroll' timestamp='1354737411' post='127515'] After the merging, the world will come into a new phase, they will call it the "Magic Duearth" in which Mur, along with the Illuminati's and the tribes from Apocalypto will take control over the world, resurrecting corpse after corpse and enslaving mankind using Adolf Hitler's toothbrush. The Chickens won't cross the road anymore, everyone will be able to speak in Braille and Hieroglyphs, the Mayans will summon King Kong to end the Alien colonization of the moon using tampons. [/quote] Earth XII to be exactly, assuming the merging with the 'real' world is enough of a change to start the next stage 168) This topic is made for the soul purpose of allowing veterans to share spoilers without breaking the no spoilers rule.

I admit I had forgotten to check if all the rewards had been given out for the skull contest, however I haven't heard a thing regarding this from either Seigheart, Zen or Fang. I didn't know there was a problem until council contacted me about it.

[cquote] Fang Archbane's punishment comes as a result of multiple infractions whilst he was the TK leader. When he was initially promoted, he stated that he knew the rules Mur had installed for the TKs, which we reissued to him anyway so that they were clear. He was told several times not to do certain things, but he disregarded the rules we laid out and did them anyway. He was told NEVER to use the treasury for personal items, and we even warned him that if he put any of his belongings (creatures, items etc.) inside, those would then be considered TK stock. He used the treasury to store 13 creatures, once they were stored he unlocked the Full Glow achievement and then took the creatures back out. For this we have decided to null his achievement and we have taken 3 creatures from him - those creatures have been stored where they belong: in the treasury. It should be noted that after the event, when questioned regarding this, he claimed he was testing whether or not he could get the Full Glow achievement if he deposited all of his non-maxed creatures into the treasury, we considered this an invalid reasoning for his actions. He awarded 1 WP directly to Seigheart for the Pumpkin Carving Contest although it was never announced that the TKs would sponsor the quest with the WP. When asked, he said he awarded the WP because ZenTao asked him. ZenTao's reason was that the anonymous sponsor was unable to award the WP so he turned to TKs. Fang Archbane also awarded ZenTao a WP for the Colourful Skulls contest although samon and phantasm (Caretakers alliance) announced that they would be sponsoring the quest with the WP. The stated reason for this action was that ZenTao wanted to use the WP to get out of skill damage and couldn't wait for samon. This last action took place after Fang had resigned as TK Leader. As per the rules, a TK should never (except when asked by Mur/Council or for forum posts/threads) directly award a WP but rather codes for them. Fang ignored this rule and has recently activated all the codes we have provided him. Except for the 2 used codes, we have now invalidated them. For this we have chosen to jail him for 1 week. There have been additional mistakes we have dealt with whilst working with Fang, but we have chosen to disregard them for now. MD Council [/cquote]

Happy Birthday!

I vote for Zen Tao. I have no doubt both Lightsage and Zen Tao would be able to do a good job as head of the TKs. Zen Tao because her experience as a TK and because she has shown to be responsible and several more reasons, Lightsage because he has been in MD for a long time, is eager to help as an LHO, etc. They both have their advantages, read the previous posts if you want to know the details. In the end I think both would probably do an equally good job. What Zen lacks in experience of MD she makes up with experience as a TK and vice versa. Still there are several reasons I think Zen Tao as head for the TKs would be better for MD than Lightsage, slightly unrelated to their ability to do the job. The first and most important one being that Zen Tao already is a member of the TKs, has been involved for a long time without any complains I know of and deserves recognition for that. If she doesn't get the recognition she deserves that can be seen as demotivating not just for Zen, but also for others thinking of helping out. The second reason might seem a bit less obvious, but I'll try to explain it as good as possible. Lightsage is a veteran. Being a veteran gives several advantages up to the point that to someone new it might seem like there is no way for someone who didn't start at least four years ago it's impossible to work himself up to a rank of importance. That's one of the reasons TK applicants should have less than 365 days to be able to apply. Having the TK leader as a non-veteran (As Zen is far from new) will be a motivation for other players. P.s. If Lightsage runs for president he would get myy vote, everything better than what we have now

Could you elaborate a bit on the "welfare of this community" part? Also I you don't happen to consider yourself poor, do you? Just asking

Hapy Birthday Zen!

Happy birthday!

Welcome Aelis, I'm glad to have you with us.

I do find it offensive towards the Tribunal and it's citizens though, imagine me naming your front garden Plains of Everlasting Stench. At least I think it should fall in the "similar" category and it doesn't fit with the suggested uses. It's a bit of a grey area, but I prefer to see it removed/reset. Edit: Unless there is a good reason it's called like this, in which I probably still won't like it, but there is no real problem.

Happy Birthday!

Welcome to MD Then I'll say the same to you as to your sister, if you need help feel free to ask me. Also do I see the birth of an MD vegetarians club? If so count me in

Welcome to MD! Glad to see you're having fun. If you need any help feel free to ask me ^^ I should usually be somewhere around the Paper Cabin or the Gazebo of Equilibrium. I only fear that I'm terrible at introductions so I can't really help you with what to say here. Samon

Posting in name of: [color=#2A2A2A][size=3][bugs][/size][/color] aka Crash Test Dummy [quote]I am currently looking for an assistant to help organise various jobs that the public will perform for MagicDuel. The idea is that i would give them jobs and they would organise people to perform those jobs and be the person who would organise these jobs. Any issues the people performing the jobs have would come to my assistant who would try to help them resolve them, my assistant would also keep track of what jobs are need doing, find new people to perform them if people run out of time to help, and various other tasks. The ability to organise things, idleing in a public location or being active on the forum would be useful. please post here stating your playername, active days, and any comments/reasons why you want to do this or why you would be good doing this.
