Aethon

I was looking through the common item posts and announcements and read about how, at some stage, "recipes" could be created to make new items -- second tier, I guess you could call them. My idea is that the anvil (which is and isn't a clickable) at the Weaponsmiths could be used to automatically create such items. When the item recipe is accepted it would be added to a script in the clickable. This would then allow the user to select the recipe and have the item created instantly, should they have the required "ingredients". This means you could have more than one recipe for each item. So the same item could be created but out of different components, though base components should remain the same (imo). Alternatively, this could be only available to a select few who would then make the items for everyone else. This could be a suitable role for someone interested and, possibly, be a reason to reinstate the Crafters guild? I'm not sure what A25 is all about but perhaps it could be integrated into the system? This idea is open for suggestion and is only a foundation to something more. :) Feel free to discuss the pros/cons.

: Aethon looks around and takes in his surroundings Aethon: Hm. : Aethon takes out a notepad and begins to walk around. Aethon: I'll need a fire. One that burns hot and constant... Aethon: *thinks* I think I can remember the heat spell for long enough, but I should gather a jar, store heat and then channel it into a furnace of sorts. : Aethon writes down a few notes Aethon: So that'll be the furnace... *looks around again* Aethon: Hammer and anvil are...worn *inspects them* but will suffice. Aethon: *looks around* I'm going to need a mold.. Aethon: Will have to find some stone to create one. Aethon: Furnace, stone, metal, glass, hope stone....*mumbles* Aethon: Ah, will need a grind stone of some sort. Aethon: *closes his notebook* Guess I should get searching! : Aethon turns and wanders away, whistling to himself

Necrovion, Loreroot, Marinds Bell and Golemus are all lands of major conflict, where war and heated debates have and will regularly occur. They are the gate ways to reaching out further in MD. Loreroot connects to the back of Marinds bell, Necrovion connects (I believe) to the MDA and acts as a passage to backs of Marinds Bell and Loreroot, Golemus connects to the Laby, which connects to Archives which again connects to the backs of Loreroot and Marinds Bell and NML connects to all four lands. In fact, you could say that NML is the stage for war and the Archives is the stage for resolving (or sneak attacks if you were inclined.) As a place of neutral opinions and of learning, I wouldn't see a need for a fenths or recruitment are. It's a land where wars are fought with words rather than weapons. Side note: It makes sense that the KoB are existent as it's the most vulnerable land, imo. All other lands connect to it one way or another. In regards to fenths and recruitment areas not being in the tribunal, I'm not sure. I always imagine the place being a world of it's own, for some reason. One that floats close to MD but isn't quite part of it. (Silly I know, but it's odd.) Perhaps again the land doesn't require a show of force as it isn't an exactly "hostile" place. From the looks of it, also, it's a land more dedicated to preserving one person (The "Demon of the East) that protecting anyone else. The insane costs to enter the Dominion is one of the best defences around. Why need an offence when nearly no one can beat your defence? Side note: If I've gone off topic just say. I tend to say ideas as they come to my head, write them down and then later decipher them into something more legible. Most of this is merely ideas that have sprung to my head and could be worked on. That is not to say that they are at all correct, just merely points to consider! My point thought, though, is - Conflict.

I would be quite up for a heads contest! Would give me a reason to train my little creatures a bit more! :D Torch, I don't know much about I'm afraid, so it doesn't seem quite so appealing right now. (Unless someone could explain/clarify what it is?)

Morph was traded, topic may be closed. :)

In light of the above, I'd perhaps suggest a name change in lieu of the current? Perhaps something like "Create" or "Design" a Hell hound? It could draw (pardon the pun) in more people perhaps if they know it's not just a drawing quest, but one of creativity. Just a suggestion, considering this is going to be a permanent quest. :)

As from now on I shall be active basically every day. So I shall also place my name forward for this. Though I may be new, I am also very able -- at least I like to think so. Edit - I could do both twitter and facebook -- I have had lot's of experience managing (personal) social networking's.. Facebook and twitter should contain both "exclusive" information and also general information -- exclusive information would give others (mainly veteran/serious players) a reason to follow. I.e. Mur's posts of "Un-seen scene drawings".

Thank you Sy. Aeo has been given his Aramor. Mur's rewards were passed to me but unfortunately I am still dead. If those that, are able to, are willing to come to the graveyard then I shall pass the items. If, however, you are unable to, please let me know and I will try to arrange for them to make their way to you! Sorry for the delays in all of this again. Won't happen again! (I hope.)

Sold

I must apologise for my inactivity, matters in real life sadly called me away. I shall be reading all pm's and forum posts today and tomorrow and should hopefully be able to reply within the same timespan. I would like to quickly add that I took no sponsored rewards from anyone other than the ones that I already held. So please don't accuse me of stealing when I have done no such thing. In regards to the anniversary creature -- I have already messaged you other places asking if I sent it to you, you said no and now is when I am able to check. I completely understand your annoyance, but please understand that sometimes not everything works out the way it should -- for both parties involved. Edit: I have replied to all PM's. Could all those that are still waiting for rewards post here what they are still awaiting. Thank you.

Yes that would be correct! :) As for distribution, of course I will also be letting the sponsors know - but should the winner see the sponsor before I do/send them a message, then they can of course give them a nudge towards this topic if needed. :) I said this as I can't guarantee 100% activity for the next few days, so rather than people waiting on me again they can just carry on!

Congratulations to all the winners! Please give the sponsors of your prizes a nudge so that they may reward you! Thanks for taking part and sorry for the delays! :D

Sorry! I've been bogged under with finishing Uni deadlines and then preparing to come home! (Takes a lot more prep than you'd think! :() Which is part of the reason I tried to finish early! :P All judges have posted their scores and I am doing mine now! This should be ready either today or tomorrow the latest! Again, apologies to those that have been waiting! :)

Judging is now under way :)

Entries to be in by 23:59 ST tonight please! Thank you! :)

I forgot to mention a point about "fugitives" actually, now you mention breaking out. The Warden would be able to send these fugitives back, if caught, and increase their punishment. After all, if you broke out from prison then you'd have more consequences than just being sent back. It's only an idea though. :)

Perhaps you'd care to elaborate? :)

With the new "rules" (if that's the correct term to use) about respect and such I'd like to propose a new method of "punishment" or "law enforcement" for those cases where a "resolution" can't be given. The Warden A title that should make even the strongest of players tremble at it's speaking! This person would work alongside judges to make sure the fate or punishment of a player is carried out. The main purpose of "The Warden" would be to transport prisoners to and from the prison. Once there, The Warden oversees their stay and has "control" over them - like how dream weavers may have control over those they put into dreams. Behave badly, try to escape, throw abuse or generally upset/annoy The Warden, or anyone else, and you'll face the wrath. This could be a longer conviction, lowering of stats, etc. Behave well and show repentance then perhaps your life will be made easier and you'll be spared some time. The Warden (is the name and the big bold lettering scaring you yet?!) would have no say in the punishment of a "criminal" until they are in their domain. Small alterations to their time (a few days - a week) could be granted by The Warden but for larger alterations/punishments The Warden would have to confer with the judges. Obviously, as this role would be (what I assume to be) an "official" role there would need to be some monitoring involved to ensure The Warden was doing their job correctly. Like in all prisons The Warden would be given a little leeway as to how "rough" he can be with his inmates (*) but should also keep a level of dignity and respect. This idea would allow for real cases and punishments to be taken into consideration, enforcing the rules of "respect" through the public/judging body, rather than expecting Mur or Chewett to deal with all cases thus allowing them to concentrate on others matters. This is merely a brief description of the idea I've had in my head since the announcement and, as always, opinions are welcome. I would ask however that we try to keep ideas constructive and NO FLAMEWARS (I add this as it seems these "flamewars" spring up as randomly as spots on a pubescent teenager!) Beware "THE WARDEN" Thanks for reading, Aethon (*) Tongue in cheek joke!

Three days left to submit entries! Hope there are more on their way!

I don't know what I like more, you making your own birthday thread or then thanking yourself for it! :)) :)) Anyway, maligayang kaarawan! Have an awesome day sir and congratulations on living another year Here's to the hopes of many more! :)) ^_^

My questions is: Who will decide who is superior and who is inferior and what influences such a "tag"? Is it being known about? Being liked? Having power? I could say I was superior than someone in many ways, but I could be equally inferior in others. So what will make me stand as inferior or superior? From what I've seen in other's reactions on the forums (to other subjects) I, personally, believe this could cause quite a bit of contention; telling someone they are worth less than someone else - it's never a nice thing to be told... But anyway, I look forward to seeing this in action!...I think? :)

Nope. Never even seen them! :)) Edit: You can also see in the meeting of the roads I have no down arrow like everyone else has.

Currently I have been told there should be five NPC characters I should be able to fight. There are currently zero. [log=Loreroot Guards:] [/log] [log=Meeting of the roads:][/log] [log=Shop Guards][/log] Edit: This has been like this since I started. Not just since I went to MP4. :)
