Passant the Weak

For the records, only the new part of the tribunal is tagged with Ap requirements and location names. The old part is blank, except a few spots after the Tribunal gate.

Happy birthday. Hope some sun will enlight your day!

I had the same problem as Duke, approximately at teh same time. No error message, just a non responsive website.

A few remarks/questions following the recent adjustments. 1. Thanks for fixing the tooltip details in the Tribunal. I would ask to fix it too for other locations that do not have it. Not necessarily with the name of the place you are about reach (e.g in the labyrinth) but at least with the number of AP (+viscosity) required. 2. It seems from what i read that "exploring" is closely associated in Mur's mind to "team work". I am a bit surprised with that. Did I get it wrong, or is that the real intention? Udagard suggested to correct this with a "personnal" viscosity, which makes sense in my eyes. Although the "personnal" viscosity, if acceptable, would have to be more like "number of times visited [i]in the last x days[/i]" rather than the brute "number of times in that location" 3. It is my feeling that the last change in the Tribunal makes some locations very hard to each for MP3s and MP4s. Either because they don't have all the knowledge for getting the needed Ap (which makes sense) or... because they would face an XP cap very fast while exploing those locations with appropiate team. (Correct me if i'm wrong on that). It's a matter of concern to me: should those locations be kept away from those kind of players who are willing to find the way but will face their own MP limitations too quickly? All in all, I like the change though!

Slightly related note: with teh viscosity being implemented, I'd now love to see the indication of AP (+ Viscosity) needed on each and every arrow. For a reason that I did not undersatnd (if any), some locations don't provide this information.

Happy birthday you and you!

Happy Birthday! May your MB subjects treat you well for that special occasion.

What? Are you dropping just when I join your worshipping crew? All the best in your new MP5 life, and thanks for everything.

I would have been attracted by those banners if they crossed my way. Fits well with what we discover after registrating. Oh and there is more from Necrovion! one small suggestion: make the "We never reset" a bit more visible (bold, bigger font?....). That is a definite difference that will, I think, get you the audience you are looking for.

I'd love the Volume control option. Just because I hear music and that beep is ... annoying.

I had to think a little bit before reacting to that breaking news. I think I am ready now. Sorry for the long post coming, but it is a complex issue that is raised here. ___________________________________ Preliminary note 1: I respect the decision whatever it is. However it must respect the Realm rules. In that regard, I understand that the Queen of Marind Bell has authority over the land of Marind Bell (including Angien shrine), but no authority over the Angiens themselves. I think the petition respects that, but we must carefully monitor things as they may evolve. [quote][size="1"]Ann. 1681 - [2010-11-26 21:34:14 - Stage 10] Clarifications regarding land authority of Kings Any land technically tagged (lower right corner of location page) as belonging to a Land, is under the authority of the ruler of that land. Any other role related to that location are subordonated to the rules of the land and the king, unless stated otherwise explicitly. Non-player characters do not subordinate under human leadership (Angiens, Shades), nor can Kings decide anything about them. These are to be considered non-human, land bound forces, non tame-able, with no authority over people or king but also not under any other authority. [/size][/quote] _________________________ I understand SoE were created to make research about Angiens and to worship them. [quote]An entire alliance was made with the whole purpose to try and contact the angiens, to understand them, to uphold the values and principles the angiens may brings to this realm, they even worshipped the angiens.[/quote] The AL also states that Angiens may help understand shades better. I am not old enough to know what happened since the discovery of the Angiens and the creation of SoE. I would love to be corrected if I am wrong, but what I feel after that petition is that SoE failed. This alliance did not manage to make Angiens respected. And as a consequence of their failure they decide that Angiens and their shrine shall not be visible anymore to anyone. It is one way to solve the problem. There might be other ways. And this part of the petition concerns me a bit: [quote]We hope to gain respect and help other seek a bit of knowledge as well as strengthen the land of Marind Bell.[/quote] I understand that SoE wants to gain respect by holding a "treasure" that is impossible to reach. I also understand that MB is using Angiens (by limiting access to their shrine) in a greedy way to get more strength. That makes me wonder about the Seekers of Enlightment and Marind's Bell. Are you seeking enlightment for yourself or to light the world by providing knowledge and diffusing positive values learned from Angiens? I think to "Spread The Word of Angiens" was a better way to achieve your purpose. A difficult one, granted. You are chosing the easy one that is to make "something" (if I may call Angiens "something") rare and inaccessible to give it a value. To me Angiens should not have a value because they are rare, but for what they represent. And I was expecting SoE to teach the world about what they represent. I hope I understand wrong. Respectfully. EDIT: spelling

Sorry if i was not clear; I meant i got teh $5 as a newbie here. But they won't give silver upfront: to get silver you need to dig up the shop much more than 5 times. I believe that was the point that was not sure above... although I am slightly offtopic.

I can confirm that no coin can be get with teh initial 5 free credits. Alt or not (my account is not an Alt and i never got to take coins but deep in teh shop).

Sharpwind, that is the same in all other games I have played (and there are a lot!). Oldies (some of them) have a feeling that they know the truth. Newbies (some of them) have the feeling that they have the great idea. And let me state my opinion straight, as a newbie here: MD is really a pleasure on that matter, because it does not happen very often! My suggestion: just ignore the Nay ones who don't justify their opposition. Or better, ask them to explain to you in simple words because you need their help to understand (usually efficient to help sort Trollish ones from trully opiniated ones). And if you still find your idea is good, stick on it and make it happen in the realm. I've seen someone taking roots, someone being given an alliance based on a dead tree (please don't tell Z I said that!), some be given roles in a council, etc... I have no idea how all this happened... except that they probably asked for nothing but sticked at their role/paying style/whatever. And if your idea is good, then a few players will catch it and support you. And if it is really good, then most of the players will join the gang.

OK Rumi, i should have a bit more time in the coming weeks. I will come back and suggests things for a second guild, based on your original ideas and what came up in the "Plant list" thread. Any guild you would prefer we start with?... Or i pick up what inspires me the most?

I did not check that when it happened. But given the time of my post, that is a possibility. I did check for the 2nd try and I was not at at change of hour (I mean for the succesful try).

I just tried with my remaining 10 Free credits. It worked fine: i got the extra AP. I had not cahnged anything in my conf except the browser was closed and re-opened... and that attempt was few hiours after the first one. I really have no idea how that problem could occur.

Hello! Waiting in a remote section since yesterday, where I do need AP, I have used Free Credits in that purpose but got none of the Temporary boost (AP, VE, ...). I do get the Free Credits and the link switch to grey, indicating they are seen as activated. I have made sure the counter would not trigger, and I have refreshed screen. I will try again in a couple hours when my next 10 Free Credits restore... but any idea before I try is welcome. PS. I have used the Free Credits yesterday with no problem on the same computer/configuration.

I think it's a good idea. From my own experience, there is not much trouble reaching each King (besides time zone); but setting up an official Court's Day would really fit well with RP. Also it would remind me of our ancient French kings who were doing that... until we cut their head.

happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday!

I voted yes but actually what i would like is being able to work on my rituals and check them at any time... even when I am in the Tribunal with no opponent that I could attack around me ! I suppose it has been proposed already, but was too lazy to check the forum.
