I read 'guild' and I thought ''yea, there should be a guild just for that''. Just make a forum MEME guild.

Aelis- thoughts and prayers* Fixed

Remember Slotsh http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/17432-the-flying-barrel/? Well, he got in trouble again. As we all know, strange ladies lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a monarchy system...but they do exist. Slotsh prayed night and day in front of the Angien Lake for something. I don't know what that something was, but one day a 'thing' was washed ashore. It's a...a...a magical thing, as Slotsh found out. This object cannot be approached recklessly, as it bites - from the front, from the rear, and stabs with its horns from the middle. The bite is strong enough to break iron. Pushing it away is also a no go, because it apparently weighs at least a TON. Now if the new king finds out what happened, Slotsh is in for it. Your task is to aid the poor fool, by providing a mechanical solution. Remember, he is extremely weak at magic, but he has an impressive stash of junk - parts, metal scraps, wood, stone etc Just make sure that thing can be either thrown back into the lake, or hidden somewhere outside Marind Bell. Describe your idea, draw it (adding the year and MD), attach it to your post and send it to me (or post in this thread). You have to take into account the weight of the thing, the difficulty of approaching it and, if you plan on building something megalithic, where the materials can be found. Slosth has a small allowance, after all. This is 'the thing': Now, you have 2 weeks to end your entry, but it's gonna be worth it: a WP for best entry (if it meets quality check), anniversary barrens (if more participate, more will be distributed), spellstones (such as acousticremains), LR archers and maybe a drach...well, there are plenty of rewards, but it all depends on how many participate and how good your solutions are. Help Slotsh!

I recently found myself telling someone ''Learn from this experience; get in the right state of mind to deal with it, then remember this state of mind and apply it whenever you are in similar circumstances.'' This is, according to Mur, what creatures in MagicDuel are - states of mind to master and use. When you're dealing with kids, for example, you must have a certain approach; when you're going to work, you also 'set' yourself in a certain way (can't say this, can't say that, we smile here, we shout here etc). The task of this quest is to grab 3 MD creatures, explain in a few lines what state of mind (you think) they represent and then give examples where you have used such creatures (nothing too specific, of course). You can post it here or send it to me by forum PM; you have until the end of the anniversary. The reward will be... knowledge. There's a certain someone who will provide accurate ''canon'' information on a creature or two if you entry is deemed worthy. Good luck!

I think a simple tag shall suffice: MEMELORD 'nuff said

I think these memes make absolutely no sense to someone who hasn't played MD. Like, Ledah's memes about the old interface...just lol...but some outsider'd be like WTF??

Can I participate?

javascriptvoid? you could never click on the door, as there's nothing behind it (for now)...afaik

I don't think those who participated can vote? I liked Mago's frogtitute, Miq's baldness and Ailith's tuna. I also liked the random puns

There are players that have written on their personal page memorable feats (some have dated them as well). Although the journal page idea is appealing, I think it doesn't make sense to have a personal page and a journal page, since content will probably be the same at core. I'd like to see such a page somewhere, though.

I won't change to Chrome either, I'm with Mag.

It's hidden in a box with a clown's head on a spring. Probably.

I was going through a little book on Leonardo Da Vinci and found an interesting passage written by the man himself; it concerns water: I thought it a very good description - with the rhythms of poetry, yet thoroughly scientific; raising questions, adding various concepts, suggesting relationships with other elements. The four elements are also present in MD and I was thinking maybe the concept should be expanded? Is this ancient Greek system still intriguing or has become boring? How expansive is Leonardo's description? Could we write something as good for all of the elements? (I sure can't, but when you combine thoughts...) If there is a mild interest in this, we could make a small group and produce a paper.

Huehue, I found a funny article: It goes on and on...look for War on Death

I'd rather have my reward kept for your future quests, but if that is unsatisfactory, tell me and I shall pick one.

I wish you a warm welcome on behalf of all Marind Bell citizens, and I want to say I am equally excited we get a new member after such a long time. Feel free to come forth with initiatives and ideas, we'll discuss all of them and see what works and what doesn't. Once again, welcome!

If you want the buckets from Marind Bell capitol, you cannot have them, as they are restricted to MB citizens. The only buckets available for all are in MDA archives. In Loreroot there are tools that are restricted to citizens, but also items for everybody with enough loyalty; same for GG. The tools available for someone with no loyalty to anything are rather limited - and incentive to join a land; each land has some sort of monopoly over some resources.

The few times I asked something a LHO, they were fast, polite and helpful. However, I didn't want to ask them for help! I thought I should do it all on my own. You're also being told you have to discover things for yourself. Then, you get to know people and message them directly - or you get into a land/ally and solve your problems with the new companions. I didn't use the LHO system enough, and I probably wouldn't if I started out again. However, I don't really care how you name that group of friendly helpful players, or what kind of system it is - just make it

Where can we find you? and when

Nah, I think it's cool, because At this moment we have a free spot in the mechanics of MD for a group that does public service of some sort, that involves communication, respect to new players, and steady continous activity. I wish to re-establish this part of the mechanics, but i will do so only when i will see a good opportunity. I thought this is what this thread is about, actually - what group could replace the LHOs? Because there was a Public Council, and when I joined MD, it was dragging its feet as well. Any ideas?

Haven't seen the fenths, but it's like squishing the LHOs into a strange apparatus and grinding them like meat, probably.

I think I also felt (at the time) I wanted that avatar sooner; but I don't know if the extra time was a test for our patience. I explored the extra features branch first, partly because of the avi and other extras.

15 credits is not much.

Burning man? You mean the imp? There are a few possibilities, some including the possibility of a bug, but I doubt it? In any case, imps are cheap, get some for your main - or anniversary editions, which are a bit pricey.

Fav movies, eh? Too many to list? I like the quiet nature of Scent of green papaya, but I also like the rawness of Training day. I like the fun of Hidden fortress, but also the hopelessness of Ran. I like the scene at the border from Sicario, but I also like the scene filmed at the tatami level in Tokyo monogatari.
