  1. [quote name='Muratus del Mur' timestamp='1298637000' post='79587'] Ever saw the sun? In MD i mean...you see its light, but how can you say there is a sun if you don.t see it? You associate with what you know same way like a night butterfly confuses a lightbulb with the sun. [/quote] Ah, but we are sentient, so we can say: We declare the source of this light a Sun. And as such eligible for consideration when talking about suns (or a specific sun). As to my answer to the question if it is a sun in our universe, I'd say: Because it didn't die yet.
  2. I will answer your question with a question: Why are there no donkeys?! Now seriously: Symbolism of a sphere to counter the cube, perhaps?
  3. I don't know, I always thought that it should be temporary stat bonuses for the highest ranking and the lowest ranking land in each competition... So for instance, if Loreroot wins, all Lorerootians get their land bonus doubled for two weeks... Same happens for the land that finishes last. And let's say the land that is closest to 0 gets it as well... Or only the land closest to 0... Maybe that would make more people participate and maybe even out the odds. And you could still give the permanent reward thing to the land with the most score.
  4. Well, Mur forbade alts... So the 30 active people divided in two teams?
  5. Ok, read it... I recently thought about wars and their efficiency in the control of human population... The inducing of chaos might be intentional in some cases, but mostly it comes in spontaniously... Too much people, not enough food, financial breakdown, hunger, discontent, war. Disease also spreads faster in high populated areas, due to the nature of it... Now, there is the conspiracy theory part, but I don't want to get into that. I thought about other things considering balance, but I think I'll sleep on it and make a large coherent post tomorrow rather than blurting nonsense now. Also, since I referenced Adams, here's a nice lecture he held, which is in essence a lecture on balance. (very smart and funny, as well) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZG8HBuDjgc
  6. The thing that bothers me with TC: Where are those rewardsies, Mur?! Where?! I wants them! I wants the preciousssss rewardsiesssss! (It wasn't Neverwinter Nights, because I don't recall any armor costing more than a hundred thousand gold pieces, if even that)
  7. One question: If I apply for team Bunny, can I still get a chance to burn Metal Bunnies testicles? That's all the fun for me in all of the festivals I've been so far... And I've been to one. The one Bunny himself hosted. Eagerly awaiting a reply, Ravenstrider, the BTB... Edit: For all of you naughty ones, BTB is not Bunny Testicle Burner, it's Bunny Team Bishop... We need titles in order for this to work...
  8. I want to share some of my fancy thoughts on balance as well... can't let Mur catch all the glory, can we now? Seeing balance as a mid way point between opposites is somewhat simplifying it. The Balance is made of smaller balances which together in turn represent chaos which is balanced with the ultimate balance... Um, think of it like this: Movement of electrons around the core of an atom is chaotic, yet follows a specific statistical pattern, and the core and the electrons are balanced due to the electrical forces that act between the electrons and protons. If an electron leaves, the atom seeks the balance, by drawing in electrons near it, and it forms all sorts of interesting things. (molecules, crystal networks, etc.) Now, those interesting things in term create life, the universe and everything else. (Who said 42?! ) Life, the universe and everything else in term create a whole bigger mess of things and unbalance other things and it all, in the bundle with space, time, antimatter and what not creates the big bloody mess I like to refer as chaos. Now, it all seems chaotic to us, but all those things tugging on each other, working towards the small balances represent The Balance in Chaos... The Balance, as I see it is the thing that most people see as God, Creator or Cow... Balance = God. Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen. That's all from me. *bows* Edit: (Four pages?! Don't you know it's 3 am?! *sighs* Fine, I'll read it... But really, this shameless self promoting... tsk tsk tsk ) Edit2: Now I know why the starting value for some of the achievements is one... and some other starting values in MD.
  9. [quote name='Kay Ingild' timestamp='1298314935' post='79229'] I liked the idea of the open book... Here's my attempt: [attachment=2594:book-tree-small.png] [/quote] Look guys, I'm sitting on my brothers grave! (Sorry, couldn't help it... Great work btw, love the book... Tree could be a bit better)
  10. Well, I'd say: Team Bunnies Team Squirrels Leaders... Hm, we should pick two new mp3s to lead the teams, just for fun...
  11. Resizing it with Gimp is much more productive than resizing in Paint.
  12. And another one... Lack of sleep inspires me, it seems. [attachment=2583:assassin.jpg] Oh, a little sketch I've done just for fun... Might never be turned into an avy... [attachment=2604:zombz.jpg] Pirate zombie type of thing, I guess.
  13. Thank you for the comments... I'm trying to draw new poses, but it isn't working out for now. :/ I'm suffering from insomnia and this is the result: [attachment=2581:cursedwarriorsoulsteal.jpg]
  14. How is buying a crafted item different from buying a Windy? As I recall, a couple of topics were made a while ago selling GG drach or Windy, depending on what the buyer wanted... Anyway, there's a problem here: What if Jester awards the WP to you before you notify him that he should instead give it to person XY? Other than that, it's bending the rules, not really braking them, imo... If Sasha were to award a WP to someone for that someone to make her an item, that would be abuse. It's a fine line...
  15. @dragonrider: Ugh... I kinda picked up shading by watching at avys Glor did and posted on forums... His style suits me... i don't know what advice I could give x.x @Maebius: I'd be happy to draw an avatar for you... New one, avy for sasha... [attachment=2571:sasha.jpg] My next avy... [attachment=2572:Newavy.jpg]
  16. I gave it a shot... Not completely done, but if I get picked I'll finish it up... 6 am atm, don't have the strength. [attachment=2568:awi.jpg] Oh, and I drew this one before... [attachment=2569:rootsdroop.jpg]
  17. I wanted quantity, but I found what I was looking for. Mods, please close the topic.
  18. @Fyrd: I'm sorry, but I was aiming for something with at least 5 tokens. @Phear: How much would you want for that pimp?
  19. He's looking down. Edit: another one... [attachment=2567:cultist.jpg]
  20. I shall never do other poses! *laughs maniacally* Couple of new ones. [attachment=2565:MrNo6.jpg] [attachment=2566:ranger.jpg]
  21. The name of the topic says it all. I am offering coins. Amount of tokens is more important than the token usefulness. The more, the better.
  22. Everything that spoils the game experience is a spoiler. Things I don't consider a spoiler: Interface information (How do I transfer creatures?), some basic information regarding the mechanics (Various things from how much ap does it take to recruit the No Mands Land/MB creatures, to the fact that one can drop exp squishing things at an altar... Both of these are available to players, but not everyone takes the time to memorize everything in the game and I think sharing this information isn't going to ruin anyones game experience, if something, it will help ease some of the beginner frustration) Things I consider a spoiler: Giving away solutions to the puzzles/guard fights, showing lands to new players who haven't in some way earned it, giving them information like stats on higher levels of creatures or age and upgrade costs in higher levels... In short,if you spoil any or all of the things that leave you with a sense of minor or major achievement when you do them...)
  23. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9OvhdPu_48 Mwahahahaha. Happy birthday.
