    skilldam stat

    i wouldnt call skilldamage stat like Eon has the biggest problem currently, since you (Eon) are pretty much the only one left with it and your days of training are mostly left behind you i've seen. (unless you'd decide to return to your old habits since i dont see an actual BHC taking place any time soon)

    fair fights against lower MPs:

    MP3:
    i believe this would be the answer to the risk discussed before (VP and VE) however i dont believe letting the mp3s fight at 100% of their stats even would give them a fair chance due to creature limitations and the low amount of stats on mp3 (with an exception of players like MRF but those are very rare) so people with bad intentions can always do harm, what you'd need is some common sense, however that is hard to code :P

    MP4:
    MP4 can join alliances and in doing so they can be freely attacked by allied mp5s, if we were to impose a fair fight system to mp4 it would create an inequality between the allied mp4s and the unallieds which i would argue is not how things are supposed to be, so i'd say no to the fair fight system against MP4. you could argue to also add the fair fight system to the allied mp4s but in my eyes that would go against the idea of an alliance

    statdamage from 1k losses

    i think this was a necessary fix to give some bottom of the losses but experienced fighters will make sure they wont make that number of losses if they use the excess losses system.  

    arena

    i can live with the arena scenes since then the young onse know the risk if they go there. however i would only accept it if said area was not monitored or controlled by some rules like fang wants to do with his MB training spot. it would positively affect player interaction since they'd need to agree on a training method (while leaving the option for having a role that doesnt go by any rules for instance) and will encourage them to experiment more and not just do some rubber duck training getting "free stats" while knowing nothing about how the combat system works (you can still see that with some fossils from the old GGG days).

  2. The Town crier - What would you use it for?

    Posted

    on that note you could link it to the announcement board at no mans land, i remember there being some ideas to put quests and events upthere, perhaps give people the oppertunity to post new notes on the board (announce real time events or so)

    you could link it to the renewed questpage too to shout if a new quest is launched or about to conclude

    as for locating landmembers i'd also say that is overpowered and frankly unnecessary, there are other tools in the md shop to easier track someone if you decide you dont want to cast a locate spell.

  6. Who was the first person that ever helped you in the game?

    in Offtopic

    Posted

    the first person to actively help me in my first days was Fyrd Argentus. i joined about the same age (16-17) so he helped me to see the realm in small understandable steps. As for an LHO, the one that helped me most back then was BFH lightning.  And according to my papers The phoenix helped me out too back then, but unfortunately i can't remember him. after that i've had a variety of mentors (Shem, Nim, ...)whom im very thankful for what they did, for i wouldnt be here now it it wasnt for them

    alright, i've received all your lists so now we can go to the final round (with some delay, sorry for that).

    we have witnessed how good you can master your creatures in forming an ultimate ritual. but now comes the real challenge... how well can you fight with creatures that are not your own!

    for this round you will need to fight with creatures that are not in your possesion. you can use any (legal) means to fulfill that condition. Start bribing, buying, hiring, recruiting, casting, or any other alternative. (to clarify, you can use any creature , i'll check the IDs from the log with the list you sent me, and these numbers are not allowed to match)

    you have 7 days to prepare for this round, come the 28th each contestant must have his "new" collection ready and be able to beat his opponent. (so until  the 28th 23:59:59)

    the rules for these fights:

    everything is allowed: stats, tokens, spells, items, ... (as long as your opponent can fight)

    good luck, and may the best fighter win!

    very well, a man of principles 
    hard to find sometimes so i'll respect it tho regret not being able to see you two give your best in this round

    this leaves us with the final round

    we have seen our competitors putting their wits and creatures to their maximum capacity, trying to form a winning ritual under circumstances that are often not very favourable. I have tested your skill and adaptability and i am glad of how well you managed, however... there can only be one winner.

    to prepare for this round i kindly ask the contestants to forward me a list of the creature IDs they have currently in their possesion (can be found on the bottom of the creaturepage)

    fighting for gold:

    Lintara
    Jubaris

    fighting for bronze:

    Lashtal
    MRAlyon

    thank you all for posting your numbers.
    these numbers were devided following a 2-2-2-2 sytem, starting with two numbers of your own.

    this gives the following lists:

    Lash 1, 3, 17, 30, 11, 13, 26, 9

    Lin 4, 15, 5, 7, 12, 28, 17, 19

    MRA 2, 10, 8, 12, 25, 27, 23, 28

    Juba 3, 7, 15, 24, 13, 14, 28, 29

    as you know to each number represents a creature following my list (available upon request) so here are the creature selections for each contestant:

    Lashtal: bird, tree, sharptear, rusty, rein, lr archer, BP archer, angien

    Lintara: UP, seed, tainted angien, root warrior, nutcracker, lr archer, joker (colored and uncolored), aramor

    MRAlyon: water being, SW, santa, root warrior, GG drach, darkling, barren soul, aramor

    Jubaris: tree, tainted angien, rein, pimped grasan, nutcracker, elemental, aramor, anniv aramor 

    (ofc you can use other levels of the creatures listed here, i wont write those all or i'd be busy for a day and i dont know them all by heart :p)

    quick recap: max 2 freezes, max slider for 1K att (yes for some it will mean statless, why i chose 1k and not 10k), max 5 tokens in total

    good luck

    you will use 4 numbers from the 8 you post, the other 4 are for your contestant, and vice versa.
    so each pair will have chosen 4 numbers for themselves, and 4 for the other, but they just dont know which numbers will go to themself and which to the other yet.

    the numbers you post will be split following a fixed sequence that is the same for all contestants but i will not disclose it yet untill all numbers are posted

    since you can still choose to gamble to doublepost a number or not (which could result in lesser available options for ritualbuilding for either you or your adversary).

    so for example 

    lashtal posted: 1,3,5,7,11,13,17,19

    Lin posted: 4; 15; 27; 30; 12; 28; 26; 9.

    lets say first 4 are yours, the other go to the other this would result in:

    Lashtal: 1,3,5,7, 12; 28; 26; 9

    Lin: 4; 15; 27; 30; 11,13,17,19

    and no double numbers so both contestants have 8 creatures with which they can build their rit.

    the first round has been finished!

    these are our victors:

    Jubaris
    Lashtal
    MRAlyon
    Lintara

    Round 2:

    For round two i would need you all to post 8 numbers between 1 and 31.
    these numbers represent the creatures you can choose to create your ritual, 4 will be for you, 4 for your opponent (so you get 8 numbers to choose from, 4 from you, 4 from the other) there is a chance there will be double numbers or even triple ones if you post a number twice, which means you'll have less creatures to choose from. do you dare to gamble to doublepost numbers, it can help you or work against you...

    In this round you can use your slider until you have 1K attack, armor, magic, land and ally (or any other bonuses) included, you can use maximum 5 tokens in this round

    our new pairs, decided by the dice:

    Lashtal
    Lintara

    Jubaris
    MRAlyon

    good luck

    (list can be provided after the round upon request)

    the new deadline might have been too short notice since many didnt manage to make it

    since any deadline on relative short notice will be hard to make for all of us I'll be forced to follow MRA's advise

    the pairs will need to find eachother and complete the fights on their own time
    i will need a full log of the fights pmed to me, i'll look at them only if one of the parties disputes the outcome and after each round to see the rules of the round were followed.

    if you named your creatures something give me an overview which name is what

    So without further delay, here is the rule of the first round:

    players will use 6 creatures of a different family of which only 3 can be colored (so max 3 black and white, max 3 colored, you can use less than 6 creats ofc) and 3 lands must be represented by a creature (premium creatures count as from a land if they are a colored version of a normal one) at least one of the minimum three (from the lands) must be colored

    the fight will be performed statless, tokenless, comboless,...

    If you fail to submit a full squad to the guidelines you can only use those that follow the description. if you fail to submit a squat at all you can use jokers as it is their nature, but if there is a rule about color they must adhere to this as well

    the more the merrier, i will post the pairings in a bit
    ill add myself to the list so we're at 8 competitors which makes for easier matching
    but like last year i wave any possible rewards in case i win the tournament
    i openly state here that i have no unfair advantage since i'll only make the combatrules on the day of the tournament (and i dont have the time to experiment all sorts of rits)

    if anyone has an issue with me joining please state so here and we'll figure something out

    @MRAlyon the idea is that you only learn about the round's rule as you're about to start it
    if i post them already some will have half a day if not more to test and improve their rits.
    this is more a test of adabtability, so posting the rules would be contra productive and unfair to some who are active and will have less time to experiment

    can everyone make tomorrow 22ST?
