jakubhi

A couple days ago... give it a few more years for the 1,000,000!

I declare this contest closed.

Ledah has received his prize for the contest Of Heads - a coloured Water Elemental.

I count four total entries for the contest Of Tales:

chriselnenepr about chriselnenepr
Ledah about jakubhi
Fang about Fang
The Puppeteer about The Puppeteer

1. @chriselnenepr about chriselnenepr
 
A nice poem with alternating rhyme and with some depth to character, with an ominous conclusion which would make me want to read more from the writer in question.

2. @Ledah re: @jakubhi:
 
The bolded line, I believe, is the most amusing in the contest. I assume that this was added not by an artificial intelligence of sorts, given that the line in question is the only one in the entry which does not fit the rhyme.
The remainder of the entry reads well, and creates some depth to the character in question.
 
3. @Fang Archbane re: Fang Archbane

This reads as if a human wrote the entry in completion, and the story is the most engaging of the lot (although the other entries are constrained by the fact that they are poetry, and not prose.) It is difficult to compare the entry with the others for the aforementioned reasons.


4. @The Puppeteer re: The Puppeteer
From a strictly linguistic perspective, this rhyme is the easiest to read and to follow, and the perspective were one which it were easy to sympathise with.



It is difficult to choose a winner, but as the contest rewards will go to the top half of submissions (i.e. two entries), I will award the two prizes to jakubhi (for the most enjoyable read - note that Ledah wrote the entry, but the prize will go to the subject of the entry), and to chriselnenepr, for the most engaging.

Would the subjects (jakubhi and chriselnenepr) please kindly contact me to obtain this new coloured creature - a Water Elemental.

Upon the boughs of Raven Hold, I have - with permission from Mur - created scene with the aid of the mind of artifice. With Mur's permission, it is eponymously named.
Following its creation, I did issue a challenge to overcome the enchantment placed upon its entry, and @death ray is the first - without administrative power - to visit Aia's Retreat, having done so within two weeks.
For this I have granted him a wishpoint. I also confirm that at the time of this declaration, the method that he had used were still available to any who wish to visit - although further visitors will not receive a wishpoint reward for this feat, I maintain that observation of the scenery were also a reward in itself.

Fyrd Argentus reluctantly admits to a misadventure in his youth, in which an entire bookshelf of storybooks was magically frozen.  They are finally, years later, starting to thaw out.  You are invited to join the recovery effort and see what treasures may unfold - Fyrd is too embarrassed to be seen by any Archivist there.  Just go to the MDA Log Room and check out the Frozen Storybook Shelf.
~~~~~
As an added incentive, first one to get to the end of book 1 also gets a colored creature.  (Save a screen shot.)

I believe it would be nice to have a few phrases in the chat, which we could use to better/more efficiently describe our emotions/opinions. 
Here is my list of proposed keywords which should trigger the phrase, along with the phrase itself. Instead of the PLAYER, imagine the name of the one using the phrase. 
As a side note, it may be a nice idea to use some other special symbol to surround them, other than the '*', so the trigger words are still usable in simple asterix descriptions. Maybe use double asterix for this? **nod**
 
nod - PLAYER nods in agreement.
greet - PLAYER greets everyone around.
shrug - PLAYER shrugs helplessly. 
yawn - PLAYER yawns loudly, looking tired. 
hey - PLAYER tries to catch everyones attention. 
sigh - PLAYER sighs silently.
hum - PLAYER hums a happy tune. 
sky - PLAYER observes the sky. 
sit - PLAYER sits down. 
listen - PLAYER listens intently with a focused expression.
idle - PLAYER stops paying attention to the surrounding, going idle.
headache - PLAYER gets a massive headache.
sleep - PLAYER lays down, eyes closed, quickly falling asleep. 
sorry - PLAYER sincerely apologises.
point - PLAYER points at something in the distance.
follow - PLAYER beckons others to follow. 
laugh - PLAYER laughs happily.
innocent - PLAYER smiles innocently.
silver - PLAYER throws a single silver coin high up into the air, then deftly catches it. 
 
There are also a few phrases which I am not sure if to use. Since I do not know the gender of the player, I went with they. 
stretch - PLAYER raises hands above their head in a mighty stretch.
shake - PLAYER shakes their head.
roll - PLAYER rolls their eyes.
tilt - PLAYER tilts their head to the side.
flex - PLAYER shows of their mighty muscles. 
 
I would be happy for any feedback:) (and thankful if anyone who is able to implement this does so. Still, it's only an idea. )

Hi all,
For those that don't know me, I'm Chewett. Before I start I will give a little bit about my background.
 
Who Is Chewett?
Now that is a question and a half! I imagine if you asked everyone you would get two to three responses per person, all different!
My background in MagicDuel is quite a long and varied one. I originally joined the community pre-game, where only the forum existed. We planned, debated, and discussed the game that was being built. I eventually was given "beta access" and began my journey in MagicDuel (I was the 40th player ID).
From there I built my role initially as a roleplayer, not really understanding the combat system. I participated in the Adventure Log and founded the Seekers of Enlightenment. Here I focussed on learning more about the game lore and understanding what really makes a realm. I have been in various secret (and not to secret groups), alongside running lands and communities within MagicDuel (e.g. GGG). Later I spent more time investigating the combat system and for a few years was among some of the top grinders in MD. I now understand the combat system much better and how it works but I still need to fully investigate how the new combat shard abilities work.
I also became an official bughunter within MD (earning my mechstar) eventually transitioning to a coder, and now am Mur's Menkyo Kaiden in coding, running, and moving the game forward. However that is less relevant to this post.
 
What are the "How to build a role" posts going to contain?
These are a series of posts that I have been working on for a few years now. Unfortunately I haven't gotten to what I was originally thinking would be the "end" and therefore I felt that I couldn't publish them. Talking with someone more recently I realised that even the first few posts would be very valuable so I should just go ahead and post them. This is the first one and I will look to finish up and post the remainders in the coming days and weeks.
If you have questions, comments, ideas, please post them below!
 
Who can have a Role in MagicDuel then?
Anyone! But it needs some work before you can truly start to have an impact.
 
First - Get an idea of your characters motivations
Before you can build your role, you need to have an idea of what motivates your character.
Is your character driven by revenge? Are they money motivated? Maybe they want to be the greatest fighter ever? Maybe they are a builder want to build "stuff"? Or maybe they are the greatest sorcerer of the decade and are learning all spells they can? Something else? As your role develops these will change, but you need to have an idea of where you currently are. These ideas will form some of the basis of your character. Maybe they have a feud with a famous character in MagicDuel and they want to bring them down, crush their friends, destroy their alliance, and burn their land. It wouldn't be the first time that would be someone’s ambition!
Having an initial idea of their motivation will give you an idea of who they are and how you should play them.
At this point you don't really need to worry about what they look like, their age, etc, thats all fluff really.
Summary: Work out what your character will be driven by and use this to reason why he is doing what he is doing.
 
Second - Past history
The character has come into their realm, but are they truly a new person? Many characters came here arriving shipwrecked, transported from out of their world, or simply appeared here one day not knowing how. Some characters will have an elaborate backstory which will form a major part of their character.
This area is really up to you but it lets you be creative. Typically your backstory will want to have some basis in MagicDuel (e.g. basing it on MD's physics, world, or lore) but you could come from a strange world or reality where things are much more different. By having a backstory that somewhat links in with the history or lore of MagicDuel will mean you can base more of your plans on that. However having a backstory that you cannot develop in MagicDuel can also be entirely acceptable. Your character will be able to easily develop with or without one so sometimes actually the past history does not matter.
Really here the decision is, how much should my character be affected by their past. If the answer is very little, then really you don't need much of a backstory!
You can spend as much or as little time here as you want. Some characters have written whole novels about their deeds in the "past life". You also don't need to know all of it at the start, memories that slowly surface can allow "adding" to your history over time.
A warning:  Having an extensive history and expecting players to A) know it and B) play along with it sometimes can put you at odds with them. Your history should be important to you but it might not be important to others! It is also easy to build a history that "did not happen" and expect to gain from it which is sometimes frustrating for people all around. Anything that happened "Before" MagicDuel is valuable and important, but you cannot expect riches and vast armies to manifest in MagicDuel just because you were a rich Tyrant. You will need to work on becoming rich in MagicDuel!
Summary: Sometimes less is more with history. You knowing your past can be useful to keep your character grounded (for example it might explain why the character refuses to fight) but should not be used as a "cheap ticket" to fame and fortune!
 
Third - Future Plans
Some might consider your past to be the least important, its the thing which you cannot change. However the future is something you most definitely have control over!
Based on your motivations your future plans might be very clear, or they might not yet have formed. Many characters take things day by day and just go with the flow. They don't necessarily have an overall plan or objective to achieve. Equally some of the most successful characters in MagicDuel have had a very specific plan as to where they want to take their role.
By having an objective it makes it relatively easy to focus on doing things to further that so I would typically recommend it. However whether that objective is well known or kept a secret to a very small group is going to be up to you (see later).
An objective can let you answer questions you will encounter in your day to day MagicDuel life. For example “How would my character feel about this” and “How would he react to this situation”. If your objective is to spread peace and love, then two players fighting each other would be something they might feel obliged to become involved with to solve and reach a resolution.
However as mentioned above, you don’t need an objective or any future plans. A lot of the time people come into MagicDuel and build an objective from the people around them. Your land, alliance, and friendship affiliation can be very useful here to drive your future plans. Maybe you can to join a group and work to further their future plans?
Summary: Having a plan is always useful to have a specific direction, but not having one doesn’t preclude you from doing great things!
 
Fourth - So who is your character?
Once you have gone over your motivations, past, and future plans you should start to have a view about your character. This is where you can start adding the flavour to them and this is typically what people really enjoy. It is important to have a well described character but their motivations, past, and future plans are key to a three dimensional character.
You must remember your character is a person like you or I, with their hopes, dreams, and terrible secrets (like some people liking K-pop or drinking tea without sugar).
This is where you typically will want to start adding a lot more descriptive elements. You will want to ask yourself questions like:
How tall are they Do they belong to a specific nation or group Do they have any specific markings on their body What clothes do they like to wear Are they literate, do they enjoy the more intellectual arts Maybe they are creative, and enjoy painting Maybe they just fight and that’s all they know! These are the things that I have described as “fluff” but are important so as to make your character your own. Luckily with the Magic in MagicDuel you can always change these through an accident or force of will! So its not super critical if you don’t like a decision you made down the line.
Summary: Having lofty ambitions is great but at the end of the day you may also need a hair colour and various other pieces of information about your character. At this point you should have a good idea about who “you” are.
 
Fifth - Working out their place in MagicDuel
So now you know who you are, but where do you fit into MagicDuel?
MagicDuel has a number of factions, lands, cliques, cabals, tyrants, lunatics, friends, and too many creatures to name. You are just one of these people but will fit into the wider game in some way.
This is actually a question you will keep wanting to ask yourself. As the world is shaped your character will grow, and the world itself will change. Many players have had many different roles over their time in MagicDuel so don’t feel like you have to pick a specific path.
As I mentioned before, if you aren’t sure where you fit in probably the first step is to work that out. Talking with people can let you know more about them and how they fit into MagicDuel. By learning you may find something you really don’t want to do, or maybe something will resonate with you and you will know instantly what your plans should be.
Similarly maybe there is a group that you want to join but it doesn’t exist? Make your own group if you don’t agree with others! Convince people, recruit them, and if you get enough you can even end up forming your own alliance!
There isn’t really a good guide for this, you have to have a think about what you would like and go from there.
Once you have an idea of your place in MagicDuel you can start cementing that, and if you aren’t yet there, working towards it. Creating events, quests, ceremonies, meetings, or even just writing, drawing, etc around MagicDuel can cement your role. This is where roleplaying can really help by focussing on your character.
At this point its good to remind you that your character can and typically is a distinct person from you the player. However some players act as themselves.
Summary: Once you have an idea of who you are you can work out where you want to go and start working towards that. You can create events, quests, and various other things which will further cement your role, and place in MagicDuel.
Future
I'm going to go into these topics a little deeply in the future so please let me know if there are any ideas or comments you have, or if you would like to know more about anything in particular.
If there are typo’s or sentences that don’t make sense please say! I am hoping to publish this on the website in the future once people have read through it.

Thank you for your application Sajura.
Now, we have 3 Auditors. 
I will be closing the applications on Friday midnight. Anyone who is still thinking about being an Auditor, please apply before the midnight (the one from Friday to Saturday). 
After that, I will create a forum group for the Auditors and the auditing may start (Phase 0 ends, Phase 1 begins. The Overseer will soon provide more hints about the Phases.)

The Overseer for the Lighthouse reconstruction has arrived! You may find him near the lighthouse. 
The renovation is split into multiple Phases. The current Phase is 0. You may also learn the current Phase from the Overseer. 
In this Phase, we are looking for Auditors! Their role will be to take a look at the Lighthouse, check the faulty parts, make a list of resources and items which will be needed to be gathered and crafted for the reconstruction. (the Auditors are expected to cooperate and communicate between each other. I will create a forum group for this, or if someone has problems with using the forum, an alternative solution can be found.)
We are looking for a minimum of 2 Auditors (maximum of 5). Depending on the amount of public interest, we may take in additional auditors.
Each chosen Auditor will be rewarded a weather spell stone (storm) at the start of their job. Next, each one will receive a gold salary, this salary will depend on the quality of their work and their progress. There will be 2 salaries, one in the middle of the Auditing, the other at the end of the Auditing. There may (or may not) be further rewards, but they are still being discussed. 
How to apply for the position of an Auditor ? You may write your application here, or write ingame/forum pm to me. It would be nice if you could also drop one or two sentences why you want to be an Auditor.
If you have any questions, you may drop them here or send me a pm too. 
(There should also be an announcement about what I mentioned here)

Lashtal asked me to post the following:
"After 10 years of good sleep, the recurrent nightmare returns! Thanks to awesome coders (Fyrd Argentus and Valoryn) "A recurrent nightmare" is now available to experience yourself. It will bring you deep inside Necrovion and face to face with your subconscious. You will experience the same nightmare I had, its variations and its absurdity. You can start it at the Howling Gates, where a new floating orb appeared. The quest is not a race, so take your time and... sleep on it! Those who end it will be rewarded with a WP... plus something special."
If you have concerns about the content, contact Lashtal.  If you have concerns about bugs, contact Fyrd Argentus.

I spent all 10 of my research points but there are still plenty of mysteries. I saw that there were research points in wish shop. Is there another way to get more points ?

I am glad to see your application death ray, welcome as the second Auditor:)
With this, we have achieved the minimum number of Auditors. 
Of course, this application process is going to be open for a few more days for others to apply as there are still some seats left. I plan to wait for a week and then I will probably close the application process and the Auditors will be able to start working.  

Not a meme, but for the lighthouse enthusiasts among us: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/lighthouses-give-away-free-180982261/

To help propagate the Lighthouse reconstruction, I have decided to create a forum thread for Lighthouse memes! (no, I just had a bunch of memes in my mind and wanted to share).
I plan to make new posts from time to time here. ANYONE who has any memes about lighthouse/reconstruction/GG..., feel free to add yours:)

In the 17th year of the realm, there emerged a figure that was likely to become a character of MD legend.  They did not disappoint.
Aksel has extraordinary energy and insatiable curiosity, and this led to being launched into notoriety, just a year after arriving in the realm.  When Aksel learned of the Land Weapons, and the trail of bread crumbs that Mur had left, there was nothing for it but to try to ring Marind's Bell.
An unlikely collection of motley characters was recruited to fill out the numbers required for this adventure.  I, Fyrd Argentus, class clown, amateur musician, alchemical experimentalist, and tabloid journalist, was approached to join the venture.  I decided I could participate as a neutral observer, as long as I followed Aksel's remarkably complete plan, that included all the crazy rituals needed to activate the MB land weapon.
Other team members were Blackshade Rider, with an amazing talent for clashing with GM's that held his fate in their hands, Mallos, chronic malcontent with remarkably contrarian ideas about how to grind, and Fang Archbane, that elusive flamboyant sky rider that never seems to be where he is supposed to be.  As a special 6th member, recruited to observe the results from outside, was Jakubhi, who always seems to be in an opposite time zone.  We attempted to recruit Handy Pockets, but initially could not locate her on short notice, so we began the attempt, ironically enough, without a single Marind Bell citizen.
We five took our positions and commenced the rituals as instructed.  Four were successful, but one was not.  As part of the rituals, we could not leave our stations without bolloxing the works, so we called upon Jak to come inside MB and help, where he discovered that the fifth station had been mistakenly identified, quickly performed the ritual and we were in!  
Or rather, using the controls at Wind's Sanctuary, we had locked ourselves in.  The mistakenly identified 5th station turned out to be an unopened door to secret places in MB and we continued to have difficulty opening them.  We thought perhaps that our lack of citizenship was hampering us.  Thankfully, Kets was finally contacted at this point, and we opened the gates to let her in, to help.  Unfortunately, many others had been alerted to our efforts and slipped in through the briefly opened gate to see what was up.
That's when our team effort began to come unraveled.  Each team member chased after their best guess as to how to open secret places.  I myself found myself nodding off and slipping into another dimension, so I can't really relate the final findings - and wouldn't if I could.  After a few hours, the effects wore off and MB was back to normal.  All I can say is that future attempts will be made, with even more preparation.  Will it be to Marind Bell again, or some other land?  Only time will tell.

As below:
[06/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:I think players should be able to attack UP the MP chain, but still not down.
[06/05/23 22:29] Chewett:What happens about if they attack Ledah?
[06/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:MP3/4 should be made aware they can dump HS via Willow's shop, and gain it via Bug Gardens. Work either way, but...
[06/05/23 22:30] jakubhi:we put a warning sign on Ledah
[06/05/23 22:30] Fyrd Argentus:They'll learn to ask first. Heck, I only hit Aia 2-3 times before I learned.
[06/05/23 22:30] Ledah:That sounds reasonable
[06/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:I would enjoy making a labyrinthian ocean journey to get from GG to GWI and back again. The building of stuff on either end is optional.
[06/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:The sea monsters could be added to....
[06/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:... over time by any A25.
[06/05/23 22:33] jakubhi:I think the ocean route has a huge potential
[06/05/23 22:33] Fyrd Argentus:And we'd have to discuss what to exempt MP5 from on GWI.
[06/05/23 22:34] Fyrd Argentus:Actually, the movement over ocean could be somewhat randomized... hmm.
[06/05/23 22:35] jakubhi:The weather would be actually useful for something, other than collecting rain water
[06/05/23 22:35] Fyrd Argentus:I'd launch from the existing boat on GG - the lighthouse project is something else... a communication means, perhaps, or a way to view GWI map from there.
[06/05/23 22:35] jakubhi:and the possibility to add role tags like sailor and captain
[06/05/23 22:36] Fyrd Argentus:Revive the boat build on GWI...
[06/05/23 22:37] Aksel:you can get heat with garden?
[06/05/23 22:37] jakubhi:we would need to get people there first. There are.. 5 of us that can get there ? 6 ?
[06/05/23 22:37] Fyrd Argentus:You can get lots of things from the Bug Garden, Aksel.
[06/05/23 22:37] Fyrd Argentus:That's one.
[06/05/23 22:38] :Aksel passed Tormented Soul card to Fyrd Argentus
[06/05/23 22:38] Aksel:I figured that cards ain't my thing either
[06/05/23 22:38] Fyrd Argentus:So do you want 4 silver?
[06/05/23 22:39] Aksel:not really but alright
[06/05/23 22:39] jakubhi:would there be some public quest/task to revive the boat?
[06/05/23 22:44] Aksel:...
[06/05/23 22:46] jakubhi:...
[06/05/23 22:46] :Ledah sneezes
[06/05/23 22:46] jakubhi:bless you
[06/05/23 22:47] Ssclorp:Did you see that? Fyrd just got sucked up in a digital storm.
[06/05/23 22:47] Ledah:Thank you
[06/05/23 22:48] Ssclorp:Or was it ledah’s sneeze?
[06/05/23 22:48] jakubhi:are you going to translate us Fyrd's messages, Ssclorp?
[06/05/23 22:48] Aksel:soooo gibraltar is spanish, corsica is italian, malta is french... how did it all go wrong?
[06/05/23 22:49] Ssclorp:My translation devices are poor at best. Humidity too low.
[06/05/23 22:50] jakubhi:Anyway, I think we could agree that we should work on the sea journey between GWI and Mainland, with or without the lighthouse, yes ?
[06/05/23 22:50] :jakubhi looks at everyone present
[06/05/23 22:51] jakubhi: (I have 0 vitale Ledah, the next time you attack I will self-defense-smack-you)
[06/05/23 22:51] Ssclorp:Happy to help with the underwater parts
[06/05/23 22:52] jakubhi:..are there going to be underwater parts ?
[06/05/23 22:52] : Blackshade Rider rolled the die!
[06/05/23 22:52] : 5
[06/05/23 22:52] Ssclorp:Only if your boat sinks. I understand your technology is primitive.
[06/05/23 22:53] jakubhi:Well, a possible new way to die, I guess
[06/05/23 22:54] Aksel:life is overrated, death has honey
[06/05/23 22:54] jakubhi:I think there are endless posibilities what to include in the boat journey, new spells, tags, areas, labyrinth like paths. But
[06/05/23 22:54] jakubhi:what should we focus on at the start? What is the base of this project?
[06/05/23 22:55] : Obrac rolled the die!
[06/05/23 22:55] : 5
[06/05/23 22:55] jakubhi: (if it really happens, but let me assume for now)
[06/05/23 22:55] Chewett:One of the problems with this plan is the complexity however
[06/05/23 22:56] Ssclorp:Excuse me, I am drying out. This place is hot. Bye.
[06/05/23 22:57] :[Spell] whack Ledah
[06/05/23 22:57] jakubhi:Sorry. Could you explain the complexity a bit more ?
[06/05/23 22:58] Chewett:The wcee
[06/05/23 23:00] jakubhi:wcee ?
[06/05/23 23:05] Chewett:Sorry, you end up with a laberinth type area which has a lot of complexity, scenes, but also not much replay value
[06/05/23 23:05] Chewett:When was the last time you went into the lab?
[06/05/23 23:06] Chewett:I like the idea, with some more prototyping we could consider reviewing it
[06/05/23 23:06] Chewett:But it does have some complexity associated with it
[06/05/23 23:08] jakubhi:I was hoping we could start with something simple, on which there would be the possibility to build up to make it more complex with time
[06/05/23 23:08] Chewett:Oh yeah we could certainly! So what would the start look like?
[06/05/23 23:09] jakubhi:Say, we create a simple journey at first. What are we working with, is there actually a scene with board ?
[06/05/23 23:09] : Else rolled the die!
[06/05/23 23:09] : 5
[06/05/23 23:09] jakubhi:I am not sure if there are any hidden things related to the board
[06/05/23 23:10] Chewett:A scene with board?
[06/05/23 23:10] jakubhi:From what I heard, there was a boat at GWI which is hidden and unused ?
[06/05/23 23:11] Chewett:I'm not sure about that
[06/05/23 23:11] Blackshade Rider:Would the scene in Golemus where the water mill thing is be a good start? I can't remember the scenes exact name
[06/05/23 23:12] jakubhi:I think we would need 3 new scenes at minimum. Start of journey, the journey with board on the ocean, the end of journey
[06/05/23 23:12] jakubhi:or ?
[06/05/23 23:12] Blackshade Rider:There was a boat on gateway that was rebuildable and could take you off gateway but not take you back
[06/05/23 23:14] Chewett:What I am really saying is, whats the point of it, what are we trying to achieve initially?
[06/05/23 23:14] jakubhi:Um, let me just spam the chat with a few points
[06/05/23 23:15] Blackshade Rider:Well the boat in this case can be used and both ways to leave Gateway and to get there.
[06/05/23 23:15] jakubhi:1) Firstly, a way for a single player to get to GWI, instead of the need to gather people, since with not many active right now, it is very, very hard
[06/05/23 23:16] Blackshade Rider:Both need to be rebuilt before being able to use the one to get to Gateway could be harder to build than the one that leaves Gateway
[06/05/23 23:16] Chewett:Let Jak speak BSR pelase
[06/05/23 23:16] Blackshade Rider:Sorry jak
[06/05/23 23:17] jakubhi: (no problem, I will just list it as I see it and we can change them as we see fit)
[06/05/23 23:18] jakubhi:2) a way for the older (not the newbies) players to exit the island, so they are not stuck there for some days
[06/05/23 23:20] jakubhi:2.5) I would imagine that this way, when newbie appears on the island, given enough time and effort, any player from mainland would be able to help them without having teleport items like me or Fyrd
[06/05/23 23:20] jakubhi:and without the need to log out, join as alt
[06/05/23 23:21] jakubhi:3) There could be rewards for completing the journeys, maybe a random chance for a chest with silver to appear during the journey.
[06/05/23 23:21] : Cavia collects 1 Rainwater
[06/05/23 23:22] jakubhi:which would motivate the people to do the journeys and actually visit the GWI more, other than check on the newbies
[06/05/23 23:23] jakubhi:4) this opens opportunities for future implementations, new resources like fish, fun activities at the boat. But this would be for the future after we see that the boat is actually being used ..
[06/05/23 23:24] jakubhi: (I imagine that there would be a minimum set time for the duration of the journey so it is not too easy, or there could be some fun way to navigate the ship..)
[06/05/23 23:24] jakubhi:but I think I mentioned all the base, immediate functions I imagine it would solve
[06/05/23 23:25] jakubhi:---end ---
[06/05/23 23:26] Chewett:I assume you know its pretty easy to leave the island as a older player right?
[06/05/23 23:26] jakubhi:actually, I think it is not so easy. Do you mean the door way ?
[06/05/23 23:33] jakubhi:Balloon wastes a lot of resources. Arena won't work for old ones. The door takes a lot of time, even more when you want to use it as exit more than once, because you need to progress thought the whole story
[06/05/23 23:33] Chewett:Thats true I guess
[06/05/23 23:35] :Else plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Ledah
[06/05/23 23:35] jakubhi:I imagine there would be a timer on the boat, like in the story, but it should be better than lots of small times like the story has
[06/05/23 23:35] jakubhi:*small timers
[06/05/23 23:36] Chewett:So whats the reason/intention for letting players come/go faster?
[06/05/23 23:36] Chewett:BSR you can obviously comment if you want to, you had some comments
[06/05/23 23:36] jakubhi: (anyone else who wants to say something, please do so too)
[06/05/23 23:40] :Else conquered Ledah and took all ☻432 heads.
[06/05/23 23:41] jakubhi:As for your question. Honestly, I think having a new exit for the old players from GWI is a secondary objective, with the way to ENTER the GWI being the main point of this whole thing
[06/05/23 23:41] Chewett:Ok, so whats the usefulness of being able to go there faster?
[06/05/23 23:41] jakubhi:Well, if they want to help the newbie, if we make it too slow, the newbie might just go idle while they get there ..
[06/05/23 23:42] jakubhi:also, we might not make it faster, we could give it a huge timer, hehe
[06/05/23 23:43] Chewett:Ok so the intention is to help newbies on the island by allowing people to visit easily?
[06/05/23 23:44] jakubhi:Not only, but yes. The intetion is for the players to be able to simply get there if they want to. Gathering 3 other people at current times.. is nearly impossible, so I would say, as of now, there is no way for a player to get there
[06/05/23 23:45] Chewett:Oddly that’s not been my experience, wbener
[06/05/23 23:45] Chewett:Whenever someone has asked to go to then island we have got people pretty fast
[06/05/23 23:46] Chewett:I like the idea of others ways to go over, but possibly we need fixes to the island because people don’t stay long enough to move from the first scene at times!
[06/05/23 23:47] jakubhi:Hmm. So, do you think the boat is good idea, but the island fixes take priority before thath ?
[06/05/23 23:48] Chewett:I think is the main intention is to get to the island quickly to help new people, I think it’s not going to help as much as other suggestions. Maybe we move the tutorial back to the mainland
[06/05/23 23:52] : Obrac rolled the die!
[06/05/23 23:52] : 2
[06/05/23 23:52] Chewett:I assume since BR isn't talking he doesn't have anything to say on your idea!
[06/05/23 23:52] jakubhi: *sighs* Well, the GWI could lose it's main point if the tutorial is moved. And I am not sure how much it would help if the tutorial went to mainland
[06/05/23 23:53] Blackshade Rider: (sorry I am driving atm. Trying to keep up mostly. I'll be home in about 45mims)
[06/05/23 23:53] Chewett:Oh god, bugger off if you are driving
[06/05/23 23:53] Chewett:Please don't kill yourself in a crash
[06/05/23 23:53] jakubhi: (safe travel)
[06/05/23 23:53] Chewett:Just turn MD off
[06/05/23 23:54] jakubhi:I think it would not help to move the tutorial to mainland much.
[06/05/23 23:55] jakubhi:the biggest plus would be that a player could check on on the newbie on the mainland. But that is what the boat is trying to solve
[06/05/23 23:55] Sunfire:it was here for years
[06/05/23 23:55] Chewett:I think it’s an idea but we would need to do a proper tutorial on the mainland
[06/05/23 23:56] jakubhi: (the game was losing the players before the tutorial moved to GWI)
[06/05/23 23:57] jakubhi:There is already stuff on GWI. The things we would need to build on mainland would be redudant. We would have two tutorials, one used and one unused
[06/05/23 23:58] Sunfire:theres stuff in the paper cabin
[06/05/23 23:58] jakubhi:building the boat would be a new feature for old players and might help upgrade the existing tutorial by having older players on the island
[06/05/23 23:59] jakubhi:...a wild thought, but, what about if we moved the story mode a bit? if the player started already in it
[06/05/23 23:59] Chewett:What I was more saying is that we can consider various options
[06/05/23 23:59] Chewett:The "problem" is that the story mode section is/was designed to be a "rare treat" which means going to the island should be tricky. But if we moved it, then possibly thats fine
[07/05/23 00:00] Chewett:I think having a way to travel to/from in different ways would be good
[07/05/23 00:01] jakubhi:well, there are many ways how and where to "move" the story mode, but, do you think it could help attract the people? Chew, Sunfire ?
[07/05/23 00:01] Chewett:IMO I would remake and "fix" the lighthouse as a big event, before the boat building
[07/05/23 00:01] Chewett:From my time on the island, Newbies "fail" at the first hurdle, and having more players around won't really help that IMO
[07/05/23 00:01] Chewett:The first part of the tutorial isn't as helpful as I would like, but I was told by a few people that the tutorial is "fine".
[07/05/23 00:01] Chewett:Thats not what my friends who are game devs said, but thats another thing entirely!
[07/05/23 00:02] Sunfire:most important thing is that we are a browser game and people like fancy colorful games
[07/05/23 00:03] Sunfire:we are quite niche
[07/05/23 00:03] jakubhi:not really. There are quite a lot pure text games with lot of players
[07/05/23 00:03] Chewett:Yeah so the original story really played into this
[07/05/23 00:03] Chewett:The current tutorial, less so
[07/05/23 00:03] Chewett:But you wanted to talk about the boat idea right?
[07/05/23 00:04] :Fyrd Argentus coughs, and speaks dust to leave from the bottom of the hole
[07/05/23 00:04] Fyrd Argentus:That was weird
[07/05/23 00:05] Fyrd Argentus:Blocking story mode is easy
[07/05/23 00:05] jakubhi:I think the lighthouse should be rebuild before the boat. But I believed the boat would help the GWI while lighthouse would not. I was trying to figure out, which should take priority to focus on
[07/05/23 00:05] Fyrd Argentus:Figuring out how to catch peoples interest early and hook them into the game is much harder
[07/05/23 00:06] :Fyrd Argentus coughs again
[07/05/23 00:07] Chewett:Yeah I think the boat won’t help GWI but that’s fair to disagree
[07/05/23 00:07] Fyrd Argentus:The boat will only help if vets use it to go help newbies.
[07/05/23 00:07] Fyrd Argentus:They could be doing that with alts, and are not.
[07/05/23 00:07] Fyrd Argentus:Mostly.
[07/05/23 00:07] jakubhi: *shrugs* I honestly don't really know. Do we want to create some polls? ask if they would use it ?
[07/05/23 00:07] Fyrd Argentus:That is why we have the doorbell...
[07/05/23 00:08] :Fyrd Argentus climbs out of the hole.
[07/05/23 00:08] Fyrd Argentus:That was so weird. Hope it doesn't happen again....
[07/05/23 00:08] :jakubhi pats the dust down from Fyrd
[07/05/23 00:09] :Fyrd Argentus passed Silver coin to Aksel
[07/05/23 00:09] :Fyrd Argentus passed Silver coin to Aksel
[07/05/23 00:09] Chewett:I think regardless of whether it helps GWI, it could be pretty cool
[07/05/23 00:09] :Fyrd Argentus passed Silver coin to Aksel
[07/05/23 00:09] :Fyrd Argentus passed Silver coin to Aksel
[07/05/23 00:10] :Fyrd Argentus feels a tugging, and starts to fade out again.
[07/05/23 00:10] jakubhi:As for both the boat and lighthouse, whichever we start with, I think it gives a chance to go public a bit, to present we still live. Maybe pin a post at the webpage about it
[07/05/23 00:10] Fyrd Argentus:Oh no! Later, all....!
[07/05/23 00:10] jakubhi: (later Fyrd)
[07/05/23 00:10] :Fyrd Argentus dissolves into silcon dust and disappears.
[07/05/23 00:12] Chewett:Later Fyrd!
[07/05/23 00:15] jakubhi:So, to sum it up, right now we agree that both boat and lighthouse are good idea, we just need to choose which to start with ?
[07/05/23 00:18] Sunfire:for us fossils, yes
[07/05/23 00:18] Chewett:Its a good idea to investigate further at least
[07/05/23 00:18] jakubhi: (brb, switching to phone)
[07/05/23 00:18] Chewett:If we can solve some of hte issues
[07/05/23 00:19] Sunfire:for the noobs, we're unsure how to make the tutorial more playerfriendly while sticking to our style
[07/05/23 00:23] jakubhi:Well, we should not focus all our attention on newbies, I guess.
[07/05/23 00:26] jakubhi:I could post a few of my ideas how I imagine the lighthouse rebuilding could go, to get some ideas circling around on the forum
[07/05/23 00:27] jakubhi:Or, do you already have some concrete plans Chew?
[07/05/23 00:30] Chewett:for the lighthouse?
[07/05/23 00:31] jakubhi:Yes
[07/05/23 00:32] jakubhi:.. Maybe I should take a look into that old forum conversation
[07/05/23 00:34] Chewett:No real plans myself, apart from create something that is "Buildable" repair it as a community, then start building boats!
[07/05/23 00:36] :Aksel massattack
[07/05/23 00:36] :::::::: Aksel asks everyone to mass attack until death ::::::::
[07/05/23 00:38] jakubhi:Will you be sharing tonights conversation on the forum? Might be useful to get others into the picture
[07/05/23 00:38] Chewett:Yeah I can post it up
[07/05/23 00:38] jakubhi:Nice
[07/05/23 00:39] : Aksel rolled the die!
[07/05/23 00:39] : 5
[07/05/23 00:39] Aksel:hey those items throw me to mda
[07/05/23 00:40] jakubhi:Yes, some do, not sure if all
[07/05/23 00:40] Chewett:They do? Fyrd probably misconfigured them
[07/05/23 00:41] jakubhi: *laughs slightly* maybe it was easier to create it that way. It should not be a problem with the links being up
[07/05/23 00:41] Aksel:links have cooldown
[07/05/23 00:42] : Sunfire rolled the dice!
[07/05/23 00:42] : 5,3 > 8
[07/05/23 00:42] Chewett:Nah I think if the item is based there it needs to be changed to be based here. But I’m not sure how he created it
[07/05/23 00:43] jakubhi:Hmm. As for the lighthouse, I think a new post should be created on the forum about it
[07/05/23 00:43] jakubhi: (with a link to the post with thisbconversation)
[07/05/23 00:43] Aksel:Jacob, the lighthouse librarian
[07/05/23 00:44] Chewett:That sounds good, could you create it and I can post up the log pater
[07/05/23 00:44] Aksel:That reminds me of Lost
[07/05/23 00:44] Aksel:you know Jacob ends up dead
[07/05/23 00:44] jakubhi:I will create it, sure.
[07/05/23 00:44] Aksel:stick to the forest, it's safer that way
[07/05/23 00:44] jakubhi:And I hope I want die, Aksel
[07/05/23 00:45] jakubhi:I wont die*
[07/05/23 00:46] Aksel:your brother ends up killing you because he wants the Island for himself, and as you can see your lighthouse jeopardizes him
[07/05/23 00:46] Chewett:Any other comments or ideas for things?

Here is the pre-amble to the ceremony, as there was a request for capturing that too...

[05/05/23 18:09] :Blackshade Rider bows to Mur
[05/05/23 18:47] Muratus del Mur:hey, check this out: /help
[05/05/23 18:47] Muratus del Mur:minimalistic till i give it an actual page with more details
[05/05/23 18:48] :Muratus del Mur summary:: \n\nBased on the conversation, it appears that Muratus del Mur has created a help page with more details about a minimalistic topic.
[05/05/23 18:48] Blackshade Rider:I like it
[05/05/23 18:48] Muratus del Mur:kickass
[05/05/23 18:48] Blackshade Rider:I was thinking of making a "How Do I" post with chat commands
[05/05/23 18:49] Blackshade Rider:I haven't checked if ones been made
[05/05/23 18:49] Muratus del Mur:too difficult to focus ai just on the help topics, i heard rumors its possible but ...
[05/05/23 18:50] Muratus del Mur:we can point ot to thje help section
[05/05/23 18:50] Muratus del Mur:omg..i might now how to do this....arrggghhh
[05/05/23 18:50] Muratus del Mur:i am busy with somethign else now, and md is so tempting to work on
[05/05/23 18:51] Lazarus:What exactly are you working on with MD?
[05/05/23 18:51] Blackshade Rider: *smiles* I know you got this. Focus on what's more important right now. We are not going anywhere
[05/05/23 18:56] Muratus del Mur:ah sadly not md, work project ..stupid stuff, not fun like md 'work'
[05/05/23 18:56] Blackshade Rider:Does the Anni end today? Anyone know?
[05/05/23 18:56] Muratus del Mur:should so ..
[05/05/23 18:57] Blackshade Rider:@mur, work can be fun sometimes
[05/05/23 18:57] Blackshade Rider:Ok well if it ends today I'm going to put up warming on my quest. May not though as not one participant
[05/05/23 19:02] Muratus del Mur:its difficult tu runanything with so few ppl..
[05/05/23 19:03] Muratus del Mur:how could one increase the playerbase?
[05/05/23 19:03] :Muratus del Mur summary:: \n\nThe mistery is that Blackshade Rider is suggesting that they put up advertisements to attract more participants to the game.
[05/05/23 19:03] Muratus del Mur:lol
[05/05/23 19:04] :Blackshade Rider winks
[05/05/23 19:04] :Muratus del Mur summary:: \n\nOne potential solution to increasing the playerbase is to promote the game through online and offline channels. This could include social media campaigns, word-of-mouth marketing, and advertising in local newspapers and magazines. Additionally, offering incentives such as discounts, rewards, or exclusive content could also help to draw in new players. Finally, hosting special events or tournaments could also be a great way to attract new players and create a sense of community.
[05/05/23 19:05] Blackshade Rider:I am working on that one thing we spoke of in email. Getting a few beta testers not in MD already so I can have their honest opinions
[05/05/23 19:05] Muratus del Mur:oh well...the experimental chat command works fine , i will add it to the help
[05/05/23 19:07] Blackshade Rider:One I did have check it out, the biggest thing they stated that seemed to bother them was no NPCs they could fight or interact with and that the island needs a better tutorial as they claimed it was to confusing.
[05/05/23 19:08] Blackshade Rider:I was going to make an alt today to see everything that's changed on the island since I was last in MD
[05/05/23 19:09] Muratus del Mur:the answer to "what should i do next" is that this is an open world adventure....not a step by step game
[05/05/23 19:10] Blackshade Rider:I did state that. I also made it clear the game evolves around the player base and a single player can change the history of MD if they tried
[05/05/23 19:11] Blackshade Rider:But that was just one person.
[05/05/23 19:12] Blackshade Rider:However many others in the past have said similar about NPCs. So leads me to a question, is it possible to make the tiny men, empty armors ( those mp2s) a form of NPCs that mp3 and mp4s can attack to grind on when there are no others for them to attack to advance? Just a question if it's possible
[05/05/23 19:13] Muratus del Mur:what we need is agressive advertising, but i have no way i could do that. Propper advertising costs 100 time more than my income, and md is not even supporting its costs rn...so i can't do any advertising
[05/05/23 19:14] Muratus del Mur:yes its possible, there are a25 functions to initiate fight with the player, and other commands, but all this requires involvement, and rn i can not do it
[05/05/23 19:14] Blackshade Rider:I'll get some advertising going no problem. Most won't be paid but I'll see about some paid also.
[05/05/23 19:14] Blackshade Rider:Understandable
[05/05/23 19:14] Muratus del Mur:the splintered apparition quest that was supposed to use this fight thing was basically abandoned by a15, not even remember why
[05/05/23 19:15] Muratus del Mur:you got your affiliate account link yes?
[05/05/23 19:16] Blackshade Rider:Hmm. I'd give it a try. I heard of a splinter apparition quest but haven't tried it
[05/05/23 19:16] Muratus del Mur:you didnt reply to that email so i am not sure it reached you
[05/05/23 19:16] Muratus del Mur:its not available the quest, not finished for very long time..
[05/05/23 19:16] Lazarus:What's stopping you from delegating these tools to new people like Mallos to work on the quest?
[05/05/23 19:16] Blackshade Rider:Yes the one person I had check it out so far said it worked, as for letting them make an account and register.
[05/05/23 19:17] Muratus del Mur:gtg, work, cya
[05/05/23 19:17] Blackshade Rider:And sorry about not responding. Been busy busy. Today has been my only day of relaxing in a long while
[05/05/23 19:18] Blackshade Rider:Later Mur stay safe friend:)
[05/05/23 20:26] :Obrac muted Obrac and won't see any chat messages from this player during current session.
[05/05/23 20:26] :Obrac unmuted Obrac and can see all chat messages from this player.
[05/05/23 20:26] Obrac:ty Myr!
[05/05/23 20:46] Fyrd Argentus:Nice "O".
[05/05/23 20:46] Fyrd Argentus:BSR, you there?
[05/05/23 20:52] Blackshade Rider:Yes
[05/05/23 21:05] :Fyrd Argentus hands BSR a two-page note.
[05/05/23 21:05] Fyrd Argentus:About GWI and Splintered Apparition (forum)
[05/05/23 21:06] Aksel:what is splintered apparition?
[05/05/23 21:06] :jakubhi resists the urge to make a pun
[05/05/23 21:07] Fyrd Argentus:It is a massive and difficult quest that has literally been years in planning.
[05/05/23 21:07] Fyrd Argentus:Allusions are made, here and there, but it is not operating yet.
[05/05/23 21:07] Aksel:why not?
[05/05/23 21:07] Fyrd Argentus:And Jak, don't resist.
[05/05/23 21:07] :jakubhi has joined the resistance
[05/05/23 21:08] Fyrd Argentus:I fixed up the technical side, but it would require somebody with deeper knowledge of early history, and authority, than I have.
[05/05/23 21:08] Fyrd Argentus:Creation by committee problem.
[05/05/23 21:08] Fyrd Argentus:brb
[05/05/23 21:12] jakubhi:Fyrd, what are all the topics of today's event ?
[05/05/23 21:12] jakubhi:and when is it beginning ?
[05/05/23 21:16] Chewett:A good question! Let me know
[05/05/23 21:19] Fyrd Argentus:Actually, Jak I was hoping anybody with unfinished business would step forward (including Chewie with any awards) .
[05/05/23 21:19] Aksel:hey
[05/05/23 21:19] Chewett:I will be around later to do something possibly
[05/05/23 21:20] :Lazarus plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Else
[05/05/23 21:20] Fyrd Argentus:I've awarded prizes for my event (but could do more just for fun) and hope anybody else will wrap theirs up about now.
[05/05/23 21:20] Fyrd Argentus:We could all howl at the full moon together.
[05/05/23 21:20] :Lazarus plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Invie
[05/05/23 21:21] Fyrd Argentus:Would you like to formally gather and have me "say a few words" to commemorate the MD family etc? I could do that if there is interest.
[05/05/23 21:21] jakubhi: *looks through his single page* I think I am all wrapped up, but I don't know about others.
[05/05/23 21:21] Fyrd Argentus:Else proposed a tournament, but I don't know if anybody signed up.
[05/05/23 21:22] :jakubhi pokes Else for input
[05/05/23 21:22] Chewett:I will be around in about an hour to do medals if anyone is eligible for them.
[05/05/23 21:22] Chewett:Tournament won't happen I believe.
[05/05/23 21:22] Chewett:Sadly I didn't have time to organise everyone to make quests, and no one stepped up
[05/05/23 21:23] Chewett:Fyrd did good but otherwise it wasn't fun this year.
[05/05/23 21:23] jakubhi:sooo, 22:30 md time, medals, give or take
[05/05/23 21:23] Chewett:But that just shows that If I don't do it, no one will, so I guess that explains where I am with MD
[05/05/23 21:23] Aksel:what do medals do?
[05/05/23 21:23] jakubhi:they look shiny on your avatar
[05/05/23 21:24] Fyrd Argentus:okay, I will start running off at the mouth at 22:15. Chewie can take over when he's ready.
[05/05/23 21:25] Aksel:I don't have avatar
[05/05/23 21:25] Blackshade Rider:I might go ahead and close my quest. Not one entry but I can understand why
[05/05/23 21:25] :Else plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Lazarus
[05/05/23 21:25] Chewett:Why can you uderstand?
[05/05/23 21:26] jakubhi:Aia's quest should be considered anni quest too, or?
[05/05/23 21:26] :Lazarus plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Invie
[05/05/23 21:26] Aksel:just look at Chew, medals make him look like old retired general from all 4 world wars
[05/05/23 21:26] Else:Maybe next year, the anni is ending soon I believe : /
[05/05/23 21:26] jakubhi: ("Of Heads and Tales - Two Quests of the Eighteenth Anniversary")
[05/05/23 21:27] Blackshade Rider:It was pointed out quests like mine I have up currently are nice yes, but are not very encouraging for some that may not be creative ect. But was also told quests like the build your own rain collector were possibly better in the aspect you actually learn a life skill in RL
[05/05/23 21:28] Blackshade Rider:I actually agreed with the ones who pointed this out and I am planning a series of quests to try based on the feed back I had gotten
[05/05/23 21:29] jakubhi:Hmmm, wait, damn, were you people sending Chew lists of participants to get the plushies for your quests ?
[05/05/23 21:31] Blackshade Rider:No I didn't care about the plushies.
[05/05/23 21:31] jakubhi:No, I mean, the participants were supposed to get them
[05/05/23 21:31] jakubhi:for, participating
[05/05/23 21:32] Blackshade Rider:I've just always done something for the anni but this year have a lot going on and not as big community
[05/05/23 21:32] Blackshade Rider:Oh
[05/05/23 21:32] jakubhi:I may owe Aksel, Invie and Ledah some plushies ..
[05/05/23 21:33] jakubhi: *ponders* Ah, maybe I can ask Chew to give it to them during medal ceremony !
[05/05/23 21:33] Blackshade Rider:I think chew will be giving those plushies and in that case you may need to send list of participants. But I don't know so don't quote me on that lol
[05/05/23 21:35] :jakubhi goes to search the forum for the plushie post
[05/05/23 21:35] Aksel:is this the record number of people in scene?
[05/05/23 21:35] jakubhi:nope
[05/05/23 21:35] Else: [Ann. 5902 are we getting anni creatures during the medal ceremony? :D]
[05/05/23 21:35] Else: [Ann. 5902]
[05/05/23 21:35] Else:ups
[05/05/23 21:36] Blackshade Rider:I remember there used to be 50+ online players here at the gazebo at anytime
[05/05/23 21:38] :[Spell] petrify Ledah
[05/05/23 21:39] jakubhi:hey, no fighting, we are celebrating now
[05/05/23 21:39] jakubhi:sort of
[05/05/23 21:39] Blackshade Rider:I think the record for online players here at the gazebo is like 150 or something like that. I might be wrong. But in the early days MDs population was very active
[05/05/23 21:39] :[Spell] Hex Blackshade Rider
[05/05/23 21:39] jakubhi:also, I found the mention of the plushies for quest participants, every participants should get 5 plushies, it is in the News
[05/05/23 21:39] jakubhi: *pokes Ledah* what did I just say
[05/05/23 21:40] Blackshade Rider: quaaaaaaaac quaaaaaaaaac
[05/05/23 21:44] Fyrd Argentus:Interesting trying to decypher the triggers.
[05/05/23 21:44] Fyrd Argentus:Ledah attacklocked Else, but who toadspoke BSR?
[05/05/23 21:45] jakubhi:I think that was LEdah
[05/05/23 21:45] jakubhi:no idea about Else
[05/05/23 21:46] Chewett:Else keeps bugging Ledah, it’s how he rolls
[05/05/23 21:46] jakubhi:Chewwwww
[05/05/23 21:46] Chewett:Yes?
[05/05/23 21:46] jakubhi:I sent you a bit late message on forum
[05/05/23 21:47] :[Spell] petrify Ledah
[05/05/23 21:47] jakubhi:Everything is done and I just need for the participants to get their plushies..
[05/05/23 21:47] jakubhi:..alright, who did that
[05/05/23 21:47] Chewett:It’s else
[05/05/23 21:48] jakubhi: *pokes else with his staff* not, now
[05/05/23 21:48] Chewett:Most likely. People were complaining he was bullying Ledah before, I had to deal with a load of pms lol
[05/05/23 21:48] Else:Are you sure?
[05/05/23 21:48] jakubhi:please wait until after the medal ceremony
[05/05/23 21:49] jakubhi:..wait. I thought I was the one bullying ledah with attacklocks ?
[05/05/23 21:49] Chewett:Yes I am now 100% sure it’s you
[05/05/23 21:49] Chewett:I wonder if I can block spells, I think I can actually
[05/05/23 21:50] :[Spell] Stop it, or Else
[05/05/23 21:50] jakubhi:I think the "are you sure" was meant for my message, if you are replying to that, Chew
[05/05/23 21:50] Chewett:Maybe I need to do that to keep it a litttle more sane for an hour or so
[05/05/23 21:50] Else:why only me? :v
[05/05/23 21:50] Chewett:Right I need to head out, be back in probably an houe
[05/05/23 21:51] Else:everyone who casted a spell should be blocked as well o.O
[05/05/23 21:51] Chewett:I dunno, they were saying your bullying was dst level and you should be banned
[05/05/23 21:51] Chewett:But people say a lot
[05/05/23 21:51] :Blackshade Rider laughs a little
[05/05/23 21:51] Else:who are they? xD
[05/05/23 21:51] Chewett:Ah speak with Fyrd, I had a long chat with him
[05/05/23 21:52] Aksel:what's the point of wasting wps for spells that people don't let you use them?
[05/05/23 21:52] Aksel:mate, ask for a refund
[05/05/23 21:52] Chewett:Nothing is blocked for now
[05/05/23 21:52] Chewett:Just when I’m back and am doing things like medals don’t keep silencing each other
[05/05/23 21:52] Fyrd Argentus:Else and Ledah seem to have a feud going.
[05/05/23 21:52] Fyrd Argentus:I don't want to get involved.
[05/05/23 21:53] Blackshade Rider:Very rarely you can get a WP refund. It's extremely rare. I've only seen it happen a few times
[05/05/23 21:53] jakubhi: (replied)
[05/05/23 21:53] Lazarus:You two should sort it out in the Sunny Bedroom in private
[05/05/23 21:54] Sunfire:why am i ragged into this
[05/05/23 21:54] Sunfire:dragged
[05/05/23 21:54] :jakubhi starts coughing
[05/05/23 21:54] :[Spell] petrify Lazarus
[05/05/23 21:54] Chewett:You have seen them refunded? Didn’t know we did that apart from the keys which wasn’t really a refund lol
[05/05/23 21:55] Blackshade Rider:I don't know if they got the refund. I just remembered a few cases of people asking.
[05/05/23 21:55] Chewett:Later, enjoy the spells!
[05/05/23 21:56] jakubhi:later

[05/05/23 22:26] Fyrd Argentus:Okay, time to get this rolling.
[05/05/23 22:26] Fyrd Argentus:Ledah and Aksel, pick one RP item or spell stone as prize.
[05/05/23 22:26] Fyrd Argentus:Jak and BSR get two each.
[05/05/23 22:27] Ledah:I wouldn't mind an acousticremains stone
[05/05/23 22:27] :Fyrd Argentus springs up onto the GoE roof, catches his pockets on the eves and flips, landing on his back.
[05/05/23 22:27] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Oh no! itc282164terhc38mdi344omz454f77a!
[05/05/23 22:28] Lazarus:oh no.
[05/05/23 22:28] Fyrd Argentus:Anyway, we are here to celebrate the closing of the 18th anniversary festival of Magic Duel.
[05/05/23 22:28] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Dang! itc267482hsrhf41mdi942pik487h13t!
[05/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:We are happy to see many old faces, but sorry that we miss so many others.
[05/05/23 22:29] Ledah:He is quick
[05/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Drat! itc269087vohsc76mdi845rhz676p88l!
[05/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:But don't be sad, we will see them all again.
[05/05/23 22:29] Fyrd Argentus:Sometime, I am sure.
[05/05/23 22:29] Chewett:Or we won’t
[05/05/23 22:30] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Crud! itc269096krvoz35mdi388mmw576p84k!
[05/05/23 22:30] Fyrd Argentus:But we need to look to the positive. See how many new friends we have found...
[05/05/23 22:30] Fyrd Argentus:Aksel.
[05/05/23 22:30] Aksel:Small star fragments
[05/05/23 22:30] Fyrd Argentus:Jongema
[05/05/23 22:31] :Fyrd Argentus passed Small star fragments to Aksel
[05/05/23 22:31] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Jiminy christmas! itc269095xaukf88mdi499qek472p34z!
[05/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:And there are old friends that appear to have returned to us for the long haul...
[05/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:Obrac and Blackshade Rider.
[05/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:SHOUTS: Drat! itc269094yummy72mdi249sdn563l13c!
[05/05/23 22:32] Fyrd Argentus:Oh well, jsut silver.
[05/05/23 22:32] Aksel:thanks
[05/05/23 22:32] Blackshade Rider:I took 2
[05/05/23 22:33] Fyrd Argentus:So, let's raise our glasses to friends, here and absent.
[05/05/23 22:33] :jakubhi took two too..
[05/05/23 22:33] :jakubhi raises an orange juice
[05/05/23 22:33] :Chewett raises a pint of sherry
[05/05/23 22:33] Fyrd Argentus:Let's drink to those here, and remember those absent, fondly.
[05/05/23 22:33] :Blackshade Rider raises a glass of a strange black liquid
[05/05/23 22:34] :Ledah downs the cider
[05/05/23 22:34] Fyrd Argentus: *tries to grip his pockets.* ITC283612MABLN90MDI922HUL713F85A
[05/05/23 22:34] :Lazarus
[05/05/23 22:34] Fyrd Argentus:And Chewett is here now. So, I suspect he has a few words to say again.
[05/05/23 22:34] Fyrd Argentus:So I'm going to...
[05/05/23 22:34] :jakubhi claps
[05/05/23 22:35] Fyrd Argentus:Oh my aching backside! ITC281864MMOXP74MDI871OMT981F17L
[05/05/23 22:35] Chewett:Alas I am not yet ready, Fyrd may have been a little premature!
[05/05/23 22:35] Fyrd Argentus:I'd better get down off this roof and sew up my pockets before I'm broke.
[05/05/23 22:35] :Fyrd Argentus pauses at the edge of the roof.
[05/05/23 22:36] :jakubhi brings a ladder
[05/05/23 22:36] :Fyrd Argentus wraps some black yarn around his midriff, sealing off his pockets.
[05/05/23 22:36] Fyrd Argentus:Hmm, well then.
[05/05/23 22:36] Fyrd Argentus:Any idea how long you'll need, Chewie?
[05/05/23 22:36] Chewett: (I’m on mobile out and about atm sorry)
[05/05/23 22:37] Ledah:Enough time to make a cuppa
[05/05/23 22:37] Blackshade Rider:Ok anyone up for a small riddle event?
[05/05/23 22:37] :Fyrd Argentus leans over the edge of roof, grips the eves, and flips off, hitting his head on Jak's ladder.
[05/05/23 22:37] :jakubhi googles what is cuppa
[05/05/23 22:37] :Fyrd Argentus slides down into a lump, then does a sommersault and springs to his feet.
[05/05/23 22:37] Fyrd Argentus:Thanks Jak!
[05/05/23 22:38] Fyrd Argentus:Yes, I'm in. But first.....
[05/05/23 22:38] :jakubhi sighs and takes the ladder away
[05/05/23 22:38] :Fyrd Argentus slips behind a bush to relieve himself.
[05/05/23 22:38] :Blackshade Rider laughs
[05/05/23 22:38] jakubhi:now, I am glad you went down from the Gazebo first
[05/05/23 22:39] Fyrd Argentus:That would have been rude.
[05/05/23 22:40] Blackshade Rider: *looks at jakubhi* cuppa is a tea or coffee if I'm not mistaken
[05/05/23 22:40] Fyrd Argentus:"cup of"
[05/05/23 22:40] jakubhi:ah
[05/05/23 22:40] Blackshade Rider:Yes a "cup of"
[05/05/23 22:41] Fyrd Argentus:You can get coffee and free booze at the Cafe beside the Maple.
[05/05/23 22:41] :Blackshade Rider laughs
[05/05/23 22:41] Fyrd Argentus:The former counteracting the latter.
[05/05/23 22:41] Blackshade Rider:I drink maybe 20 cuppas a day
[05/05/23 22:41] Fyrd Argentus:I presume you all know where that is... but too far to run for now...
[05/05/23 22:42] Fyrd Argentus:And Mur gets distressed when I leave empty bottles lying around his realm, so I will refrain....
[05/05/23 22:42] Blackshade Rider:I asked for coffee forever that was useable it's nice to see it's finally been done
[05/05/23 22:42] Blackshade Rider:I saw some coffee on the way to MDA
[05/05/23 22:42] :Fyrd Argentus passed Bottle of Bushies Wine to Blackshade Rider
[05/05/23 22:42] Fyrd Argentus:Here, have a drink on me.
[05/05/23 22:43] :Fyrd Argentus passed Bottle of Bushies Wine to jakubhi
[05/05/23 22:43] jakubhi:ohh, I am going to store this for someone, I only drink on Christmas eve with family
[05/05/23 22:43] Blackshade Rider: Riase ...hic ... aa ...hic ... tsoat ...hic ...
[05/05/23 22:44] Fyrd Argentus:Anybody else?
[05/05/23 22:44] :Lazarus plunders ☻2 heads by attacking Miq
[05/05/23 22:44] : *sriaes his gssla*
[05/05/23 22:44] Fyrd Argentus:Yes, BSR, you found the place. I'm trying to start a little impromptu theatre troop based there.
[05/05/23 22:44] Blackshade Rider: To 18 ...hic ... yrs of this rleam
[05/05/23 22:45] Fyrd Argentus:I've only been blessed to be here for 5 of those years.... off and on.
[05/05/23 22:45] jakubhi:now is the first official time you can actually drink here, since md wasn't adult before !
[05/05/23 22:45] Fyrd Argentus:But yes! *raises his mulled wine.*
[05/05/23 22:46] Blackshade Rider: (ahtt scene is very ctrteueld ...hic ... in my onoipni. Mhgit II ssguegt aa scnee off to the sdie ...hic ... wtih aa pciinc lkie tblae to help dceettulr taht scnee)
[05/05/23 22:46] Fyrd Argentus:Well, drunken-ness is not encourage, but it sure is funny.
[05/05/23 22:46] Fyrd Argentus:Actually, watching this may be good lesson for the youth.
[05/05/23 22:46] jakubhi:... define youth
[05/05/23 22:46] Blackshade Rider: Gaert I'm aa bad emlapex. I'm the only one dnruk rghit now
[05/05/23 22:46] Fyrd Argentus:ctrteueld?
[05/05/23 22:47] :jakubhi laughs
[05/05/23 22:47] Fyrd Argentus:Cluttered?
[05/05/23 22:47] : *ptus dwon the wnie bltote*
[05/05/23 22:47] Fyrd Argentus:I did make the garden scene off to the side....
[05/05/23 22:47] Blackshade Rider: Yes taht
[05/05/23 22:47] Fyrd Argentus:I kind of like it that way....
[05/05/23 22:48] Fyrd Argentus:Needs to be built up, like this spot here.
[05/05/23 22:48] Fyrd Argentus:It's a sanctuary for theatre-minded types.
[05/05/23 22:48] Fyrd Argentus:Those not desiring to grind....
[05/05/23 22:48] Fyrd Argentus:... unlike here.
[05/05/23 22:48] Blackshade Rider: II bvlieee trhee is aa teahetr in the east
[05/05/23 22:48] Fyrd Argentus:But again, we need bodies to make it all work at the same time.
[05/05/23 22:49] Blackshade Rider: II mhgit be worng
[05/05/23 22:49] Fyrd Argentus:Not formal, impromptu.
[05/05/23 22:49] Fyrd Argentus:For lessons, experiments, fun.
[05/05/23 22:49] Fyrd Argentus:Open to all.
[05/05/23 22:49] Fyrd Argentus:And games. Definitely games.
[05/05/23 22:49] Fyrd Argentus:But, Mohammed must go to the mountain, as it were...
[05/05/23 22:50] Fyrd Argentus:I have plans for that game table...
[05/05/23 22:50] jakubhi:I think I am missing some reference here
[05/05/23 22:50] Fyrd Argentus:And possibly the stool...
[05/05/23 22:50] Blackshade Rider: Fryd drink with me and Stava
[05/05/23 22:50] Chewett:Ten minute warning
[05/05/23 22:50] Fyrd Argentus:The Cafe next to the maple?
[05/05/23 22:50] Fyrd Argentus: (thanks, Chewie)
[05/05/23 22:51] Chewett: (Depending how fast the wify drives lol)
[05/05/23 22:51] Fyrd Argentus:Or the bit about M going to the mountain, since the mountain won't come to him.
[05/05/23 22:51] Fyrd Argentus: (no sweat)
[05/05/23 22:51] jakubhi: (safe driving )
[05/05/23 22:51] Blackshade Rider: Oh Stava ins't drnuk ayornme
[05/05/23 22:51] jakubhi:the M
[05/05/23 22:52] Fyrd Argentus:It's a famous saying, but I really don't know the context very well.
[05/05/23 22:52] Fyrd Argentus:Islam.
[05/05/23 22:52] jakubhi:something like "we need to make this work with what we have" ?
[05/05/23 22:52] Fyrd Argentus:No matter how important a person is, the earth/mountain will not obey them.
[05/05/23 22:53] Fyrd Argentus:So since the people are here, I must bring the games here.
[05/05/23 22:53] jakubhi: ( https://i.pinimg.com/originals/45/e0/aa/45e0aa4dc5bbd187d37ebc5fd7ccfce5.jpg )
[05/05/23 22:54] Aksel:do pms go puff?
[05/05/23 22:54] Blackshade Rider: Puff?
[05/05/23 22:55] Fyrd Argentus:No... but they get buried...
[05/05/23 22:55] Blackshade Rider: Pms in game do deappisar aetfr aa whlie
[05/05/23 22:55] Aksel:so if I dig I will find pm from long time ago?
[05/05/23 22:55] Aksel:they don't ever get purged?
[05/05/23 22:55] Aksel:what time frame?
[05/05/23 22:56] Blackshade Rider: On frmuos no. Not form what II can tlel
[05/05/23 22:56] Aksel:ingame
[05/05/23 22:56] jakubhi:I dont think you can dig, you just won't find them anymoe
[05/05/23 22:56] Blackshade Rider: In game II thnik the time frmae is aa motnh or two I'm not srue
[05/05/23 22:56] Fyrd Argentus:I find some ancient ones in my deep queue ingame.
[05/05/23 22:56] Aksel:I managed to pull 6 month old
[05/05/23 22:56] Fyrd Argentus:But they're buried under others and you can't scroll that deep.
[05/05/23 22:56] Aksel:I wonder if I can go deeper?
[05/05/23 22:57] Fyrd Argentus:If you have categories, you can sometime find them.
[05/05/23 22:57] jakubhi:I think there is no time limit, just amount limit
[05/05/23 22:57] Chewett:They get deleted after a year I believe
[05/05/23 22:57] Aksel:I mean.... I just want to be able to eventually pull them
[05/05/23 22:57] Chewett:Forum is kept forever
[05/05/23 22:57] Chewett:Well until all participants delete it
[05/05/23 22:58] Aksel:okay managed to dig one from 10 months ago
[05/05/23 22:58] jakubhi: (just found 1 year and 3 days old msg)
[05/05/23 22:58] Aksel:so I should back them up if I don't want to lose them right?
[05/05/23 22:58] Chewett:That’s possibly because the deletion hasn’t run recently Jak
[05/05/23 22:58] :jakubhi nods
[05/05/23 22:58] Aksel:damn son, that's a lot of work
[05/05/23 22:58] Fyrd Argentus:My brain is getting old. Chewie generally knows best.
[05/05/23 22:59] Fyrd Argentus: (Something to be said for using the forum, Aksel....)
[05/05/23 22:59] Aksel:luckly I'm still younger than a year so that means all is still here
[05/05/23 23:00] Aksel:each use of forum means a moment that you are not in game which you would otherwise be in
[05/05/23 23:00] Fyrd Argentus:Ah, but the game encompasses the forum....
[05/05/23 23:01] Aksel:ultimately it's distancing the player out
[05/05/23 23:01] Aksel:no
[05/05/23 23:01] Aksel:forum encompasses the game
[05/05/23 23:01] Aksel:game is integral to forum, forum ain't integral to game
[05/05/23 23:02] Lazarus:That's where MD started ironically enough
[05/05/23 23:02] Aksel:ship started in shipyard
[05/05/23 23:02] Aksel:keeping it in there defeats it's purpose
[05/05/23 23:02] jakubhi:so, the forum was first? I imagine it was the old forum, not this one
[05/05/23 23:03] Aksel:you don't want your ship going into shipyard all the time, now don't you?
[05/05/23 23:03] Fyrd Argentus:Aksel, it's a bulletin board for trades, contests, etc.
[05/05/23 23:03] Fyrd Argentus:Publication of stories of interest.
[05/05/23 23:04] Blackshade Rider:It doesn't have to be used
[05/05/23 23:05] Fyrd Argentus:No, but it enhances the game.
[05/05/23 23:05] jakubhi:well, you need the shipyard for the ship to get the cargo *grins*
[05/05/23 23:05] Blackshade Rider:To a degree
[05/05/23 23:06] jakubhi:it is not easy to share a large message to everyone ingame, like quest announcements
[05/05/23 23:07] Fyrd Argentus:Nor is it fair, due to timezone differences, to neglect speaking with others...
[05/05/23 23:07] Blackshade Rider:My thing is that there should be a constant online NPC like players that mp3 and mp4 can attack to grind on, like the old mp2s used to be found in Golemus and necro
[05/05/23 23:07] Aksel:it's a crutch
[05/05/23 23:07] Fyrd Argentus:So you're a purist, of sorts.
[05/05/23 23:08] Blackshade Rider:They were able to attack them but if they won the fight it would disappear forever supposedly
[05/05/23 23:08] Aksel:new more integrated ways are bound to evolve inside the game, it's just evolution yet didn't catch up
[05/05/23 23:08] Lazarus:Nobody wants to put their ship in the shipyard all the time, but if it's broken that's where it will go
[05/05/23 23:08] Lazarus:AKA bug reports + publications/discussions etc
[05/05/23 23:08] Aksel:exactly
[05/05/23 23:08] Lazarus:It's an integral part of MD
[05/05/23 23:09] Fyrd Argentus:So, there is a billboard by the Well of Fortune.
[05/05/23 23:09] Lazarus:Occasional drama
[05/05/23 23:09] Fyrd Argentus:Do you think it should be reworked to be a realm-wide place for anybody to post anything they want?
[05/05/23 23:09] jakubhi:how can one write on the billboard? just interested
[05/05/23 23:09] Aksel:being necessary doesn't mean it' integral
[05/05/23 23:09] Fyrd Argentus:MDScript or A25 Tools
[05/05/23 23:10] Fyrd Argentus:But if you have neither, A25 could accept and regurgitate bulletins.
[05/05/23 23:10] Chewett:Originally the billboard was meant to be a location to post and complete quests but we moved that to the scroll
[05/05/23 23:10] Blackshade Rider:And MDScript requires multiple wps to unlock it's full potential
[05/05/23 23:10] jakubhi:well, it is worth thinking about, not a bad idea to have a place to "post" things ingame
[05/05/23 23:10] Aksel:I do think there should be ways inside game that pertain to game which would satisfy the needs of play
[05/05/23 23:10] Chewett:MDscriot can be given freely to anyone who asks
[05/05/23 23:11] Chewett:It can also create something that you don’t need mdscriot to use, see the post office
[05/05/23 23:11] Aksel:in other words, I believe that game/play related things should be in game and happen ingame
[05/05/23 23:11] Fyrd Argentus:It would not be a hard A25 project either.
[05/05/23 23:11] :jakubhi would be able to break everything by trying to implement things
[05/05/23 23:11] Aksel:forum is more a place of a metagame
[05/05/23 23:11] Fyrd Argentus:Then there is the Moodpanel....
[05/05/23 23:12] Blackshade Rider:So the WP I used to unlock the ability to use MDScript was wasted when I could had just asked for it freely?
[05/05/23 23:12] jakubhi:eh *shakes his head slightly* moodpanel is not the same
[05/05/23 23:12] Fyrd Argentus:... where you give links to internet docs...
[05/05/23 23:12] Fyrd Argentus:.. that explain rules, etc.
[05/05/23 23:12] :jakubhi goes to grab something sweet
[05/05/23 23:12] Aksel:if you do something pertaining to game interactions and role evoltuions as well as happenings, it should be done inside game not on forums, forums is an outside administative place
[05/05/23 23:13] Blackshade Rider:That's messed up
[05/05/23 23:13] Fyrd Argentus:Chewett, we don't have a post office, do we?
[05/05/23 23:13] Aksel:so yes purist in a way
[05/05/23 23:14] Lazarus:MD is not like PS games where it's self contained with built in playstore etc. This is a browser game with mechanics unlike any other
[05/05/23 23:14] Lazarus:Interactions and game evolutions happens in-game. See adventure logs
[05/05/23 23:14] Aksel:what is PS?
[05/05/23 23:14] Lazarus:Playstation
[05/05/23 23:14] Aksel:don't know never had one
[05/05/23 23:15] Chewett:We did have a post office, it was entirely in MD script. People could leave messages for others
[05/05/23 23:15] Chewett:It was pretty cool
[05/05/23 23:15] Chewett:iMO
[05/05/23 23:15] Chewett:We actually had two at one point lol
[05/05/23 23:15] Aksel:sounds cool
[05/05/23 23:15] Fyrd Argentus:What happened to it?
[05/05/23 23:15] Fyrd Argentus:them?
[05/05/23 23:15] Chewett:Mur banned it and rewarded the creators lol
[05/05/23 23:16] Aksel:why?
[05/05/23 23:16] Blackshade Rider:So if MDScript can be given freely if asked why is it in the WP shop still?
[05/05/23 23:16] Fyrd Argentus:GM's can do whatever they want, BSR.
[05/05/23 23:16] Chewett:There was an announcement
[05/05/23 23:16] :Blackshade Rider mumbles
[05/05/23 23:16] Chewett:Sorry on phone but I shall have a look when back
[05/05/23 23:16] Chewett:Search for post office and see if it comes up
[05/05/23 23:17] Chewett:Can someone post it up if they find it?
[05/05/23 23:17] :jakubhi goes to open all the annis and crash his notebook
[05/05/23 23:17] Aksel:I wanted to create a personal library of sorts for others to see, could it be done in mdscript
[05/05/23 23:18] Ivorak: [Ann. 1495]
[05/05/23 23:18] Blackshade Rider:And here I was using WP on MDScript. *Shakes his head* such a waste
[05/05/23 23:18] Chewett:That’s the one
[05/05/23 23:18] Chewett:The good old days
[05/05/23 23:18] Chewett:He didn’t ban me lll
[05/05/23 23:18] Chewett:Lol
[05/05/23 23:18] Lazarus:Astral plane? As in Cutler's astral plane?
[05/05/23 23:19] Chewett:Were there any others?
[05/05/23 23:19] Lazarus:No clue
[05/05/23 23:20] Aksel:But yes, I mean, what is the purpose of scripting something that already exists in the main interface, I say rule against alternate realities are valid and healthy
[05/05/23 23:21] Chewett:We can rewrite rules as needed, if they make sense
[05/05/23 23:21] Chewett:I need to finish this but I should be there in about fifteen minutes yall
[05/05/23 23:21] Chewett:I have a piece to say on this
[05/05/23 23:23] jakubhi: *whispers* nobody pass the wine to Chew, or we will have MD completely rewritten by tomorrow morning
[05/05/23 23:24] :Blackshade Rider pills his cloak over himself
[05/05/23 23:25] Chewett:Be merry while you wait
[05/05/23 23:26] jakubhi:ha, Fyrd, I found one of your ancient posts
[05/05/23 23:26] :Blackshade Rider pokes his head out his cloak
[05/05/23 23:27] Blackshade Rider:I'm always hungry, I must always be fed. The finger I touch, will soon be red. What am I?
[05/05/23 23:28] Fyrd Argentus:Thorn?
[05/05/23 23:28] Ledah:Pfft, fire
[05/05/23 23:28] Fyrd Argentus:Mosquito?
[05/05/23 23:28] Blackshade Rider:Good guess, but no.
[05/05/23 23:29] Blackshade Rider:Ledah got it
[05/05/23 23:30] Blackshade Rider:Here's another
[05/05/23 23:30] Blackshade Rider:But harder
[05/05/23 23:30] Ivorak:I should probably rename this, because I haven't verified that everything on the list is actually allowed, but here are some things one could do if one was bored: https://miscellaneum.wordpress.com/2022/08/04/things-youre-allowed-to-do-in-magicduel/
[05/05/23 23:30] Blackshade Rider:I am taken from a mine and shut up in a wooden case, from which I am never released, and yet I am used by almost every person. What am I?
[05/05/23 23:31] jakubhi:mattress ?
[05/05/23 23:32] Blackshade Rider:Good guess but no
[05/05/23 23:32] jakubhi:pencil !
[05/05/23 23:32] Fyrd Argentus:clever
[05/05/23 23:33] jakubhi:and well, graphite inside the wood ?
[05/05/23 23:33] Blackshade Rider:More specifically pencil lead, but yes
[05/05/23 23:33] jakubhi:I just looked around my table and saw the pencils, otherwise I would not get it, good one *grins*
[05/05/23 23:35] Blackshade Rider:Ok easy one.
[05/05/23 23:36] Chewett:Right
[05/05/23 23:36] Blackshade Rider:I can be made, I can be told, I can be cracked. What am I
[05/05/23 23:36] Chewett:A joke
[05/05/23 23:36] Blackshade Rider:Yes chew.
[05/05/23 23:36] Chewett:But I wouldn't say you are a joke, regardless of what others say!
[05/05/23 23:36] Chewett:Good evening one and all
[05/05/23 23:37] Blackshade Rider: *looks in his book* I know I got a really good one here somewhere
[05/05/23 23:37] Chewett:I first wish to thank Fyrd and others for entertaining us, and suggesting this event
[05/05/23 23:37] Fyrd Argentus:happy to, my pleasure
[05/05/23 23:37] Chewett:I wasn't really sure what we should do, and his suggestion was a good one that also met up well with my availability.
[05/05/23 23:39] Blackshade Rider: *closes his book* I'll continue in a few when chew is done
[05/05/23 23:39] Chewett:But here we are
...

The event began at GoE
[05/05/23 23:39] Chewett:But here we are
[05/05/23 23:39] Chewett:Somewhat more than eighteen days, but who can really count anyway
[05/05/23 23:40] Chewett:Its great, as Fyrd said, to see our little group of friends reappear each year
[05/05/23 23:40] Chewett:Unfortunately this number was much smaller than last year. Typically I send out a yearly message to all my old friends to see how they are doing
[05/05/23 23:40] Chewett:Normally I send 2-300 of these... it takes a while to write them!
[05/05/23 23:42] Chewett:Alas this year I just didn't have the time, and I do profusely apologise for this
[05/05/23 23:42] Chewett:But regardless it is wonderful to see you all here
[05/05/23 23:43] Chewett:Time, as you know for many of us, is short
[05/05/23 23:43] Chewett:Many of our friends are no longer with us, some more permanently than others
[05/05/23 23:43] Chewett:I, as I always do, spent the first day or two of the festival with Cutler
Everyone was teleported to Cutlers Statue
[05/05/23 23:44] Chewett:Here I find it peaceful
[05/05/23 23:44] Chewett:Over the festivities I like to remember back our various friends
[05/05/23 23:45] Chewett:Equally, I like to spend time talking with those who came to visit too
[05/05/23 23:46] Chewett:But enough about the past
[05/05/23 23:46] Chewett:The future? Well what is the future really?
[05/05/23 23:46] :Blackshade Rider sits and listens
Everyone was teleported to Kanty's Vacation House
[05/05/23 23:47] Chewett:Really, the future is just the same as the past
[05/05/23 23:47] Chewett:Its just that, really, deep down, some people have forgotten what that is
[05/05/23 23:47] Chewett:What did actually make MD special?
[05/05/23 23:47] Chewett:Does it still exist now?
[05/05/23 23:48] Chewett:The world moves, does MD?
[05/05/23 23:48] Blackshade Rider:Absolutely
[05/05/23 23:48] Chewett:Some would say it does
[05/05/23 23:48] Chewett:Some would say it doesn't
[05/05/23 23:49] Chewett:I think a lot of the same problems we had, are still present
[05/05/23 23:49] Chewett:But those are the problems that made MD great, the people
Everyone was teleported to Champions Dome

[05/05/23 23:50] Chewett:So really then, to answer my question, what is the future?
[05/05/23 23:51] Chewett:We are the future really, its pretty simple
[05/05/23 23:52] Chewett:During times when we turned off advertising, and had minimal players, then the few that stood up to do things really made an impact
[05/05/23 23:53] Chewett:We ran custom "Dungeons and Dragons" style RP sessions, and so the AL began
[05/05/23 23:53] Chewett:But these personalities really pushed forward the lore of MagicDuel.
[05/05/23 23:53] Chewett:As we gained more tools within MD, we forgot that at the heart of the game, its about people, and what they do, say, and wish for.
[05/05/23 23:54] Chewett:Its easy to think that MD is "just a fighting game" which for some it is true, and thats perfectly fine. But at its core its not really that
[05/05/23 23:54] Chewett:The people drive MagicDuel, and they will always drive MagicDuel.
[05/05/23 23:54] Chewett:Now at times, people have clashed with Mur, they have driven things in ways that he has not wanted it, and he has pruned those branches
[05/05/23 23:55] Chewett:Cutler and myself both were told to remove some of our designs, that is fine for it is his decision.
[05/05/23 23:55] Chewett:But from that, more beauty was created, partnerships were struck, eventually both Cutler and myself started to work closely with Mur
[05/05/23 23:56] Chewett:More recently we have players like Aia and Fyrd all working towards new and different things, being given some license to create
[05/05/23 23:56] Chewett:Again sometimes these creations were pruned, tweaked, but all towards trying to grow towards a goal.
[05/05/23 23:57] Chewett:Within my profession, there is a saying about game developers and why games get stuck, lost, forgotten, etc.
[05/05/23 23:57] Chewett:They say, if you are a AAA game dev, your game will get stuck because of bureaucracy. You just can't get agreement so nothing happens
[05/05/23 23:58] Chewett:So clearly Indie is the way to go!
[05/05/23 23:58] Chewett:They also say, that if you are an Indie, typically your game will get stuck because of depression/life/etc and you become too embarrassed to work on it.
[05/05/23 23:58] Chewett:So clearly AAA studio's are the way to go!
[05/05/23 23:58] Chewett:While I think most can agree the quality of Magicduel is AAA
[05/05/23 23:59] Fyrd Argentus: (Shades of Princess Bride here....)
[05/05/23 23:59] Chewett:You might be surprised to know that we don't actually have a team of a hundred tiny men
[05/05/23 23:59] Chewett: (Fyrd Learned as ever )
[06/05/23 00:00] Chewett:Only a few people actively develop the code for MD, and only a few people actively work on A25 currently.
[06/05/23 00:00] Chewett:We would love that to be more, and thats where I start my offer
Everyone was teleported to Necro
06/05/23 00:01] Chewett:... and thats where I start my offer
[06/05/23 00:02] Chewett:In such a realm where we are small again, people must step up if they want things to happen
[06/05/23 00:02] Chewett:However, the other thing that people must be aware of, is that we all have other lives...
[06/05/23 00:02] Chewett:It is shocking to think, but Fyrd is not just the Pickle Meister!
[06/05/23 00:02] Chewett:I heard he dabbled in illicit alchemy in far off lands
[06/05/23 00:02] Chewett:It is a secret that I must reveal, but I believe he has a dark past
[06/05/23 00:03] Chewett:Don't let him hear!
[06/05/23 00:03] Chewett:Luckily I believe he is somewhat deaf
[06/05/23 00:03] Fyrd Argentus:No, just forgetful.
[06/05/23 00:03] Chewett:Drat!
[06/05/23 00:03] Chewett:I think I am in for it!
[06/05/23 00:03] Fyrd Argentus:And I have dabbled in everything I could...
[06/05/23 00:03] Chewett:If I wake up dead, or dead up wake, you know it was him!
[06/05/23 00:04] Fyrd Argentus:... embrace life...
[06/05/23 00:04] :jakubhi looks at lashtal, then back at the Land he is standing on, then back at lashtal
[06/05/23 00:04] Chewett:Don't tell lashtal either!
[06/05/23 00:04] Chewett:Just pretend we are in a meadow
[06/05/23 00:04] Chewett:It will fool him!
[06/05/23 00:05] :Blackshade Rider hides jakubhi under his cloak
[06/05/23 00:05] Chewett:But, as I was saying...
[06/05/23 00:05] Chewett:People are people, especially when they are peopling in other realms
[06/05/23 00:05] Chewett:But it means that when they come to these realms, we must be kind.
[06/05/23 00:05] Chewett:To a degree...
[06/05/23 00:06] Chewett:Unfortunately I must admit that when I came to prepare for the final items of this festival, I had to deal with a tirade of abuse, the likes of which I haven't really ever heard in MD directed at me
[06/05/23 00:07] Chewett:This, did somewhat put a damper on my mood, alongside dealing with that, which meant that really I wasn't able to dedicate the time I wanted to.
[06/05/23 00:07] Fyrd Argentus:
[06/05/23 00:07] Chewett:I just didn't feel like I wanted too, it was somewhat spoilt.
[06/05/23 00:07] Chewett:Now, I tell you this, not to complain, but to point out
[06/05/23 00:07] Chewett:We all here, are people and really if someone is trying to work towards something in MD, we need to encourage them/
[06/05/23 00:07] Chewett:Unfortunately, combined with that quite abrasive series of encounters, I have had very little time over the past year
[06/05/23 00:08] Chewett:My company is making redundancies, and we have some very critical projects going to some very big companies that need work!
[06/05/23 00:08] Chewett:My past year has been manic to say the least....
[06/05/23 00:08] Chewett:And it continues, and that combined with the unfortunate incident before the birthday it meant that really the birthday did not meet what I wanted it to be
[06/05/23 00:08] Chewett:But, we have a plan.
[06/05/23 00:09] Chewett:I have had a good chat with Fyrd and a few others and I plan to organise some of the things that I missed later on in the year!
[06/05/23 00:09] Chewett:A mid birthday, birthday!
[06/05/23 00:09] Chewett:But what this has shown is that, if I am not around to organise it, barring a few people putting in a massive amount of work like Mr Fyrd here, it won't happen.
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:So there is where I ask two things, again.
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:People need to be kinder
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:And people need to, if they want things to change, start proposing changes, and working out ideas
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:Many things can be done by each of you
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:Nowadays most things don't need actual coding
[06/05/23 00:10] Chewett:A25 can do many wonderous things
[06/05/23 00:11] Chewett:So here is my message to you!
[06/05/23 00:11] Chewett:Be kind!
[06/05/23 00:11] Chewett:Be inventive!
[06/05/23 00:11] Chewett:And I love you all my friends
[06/05/23 00:11] Fyrd Argentus: (Well, that's kind of coding.... sort of...)
[06/05/23 00:12] Fyrd Argentus:We do appreciate you too, Chewie.
[06/05/23 00:12] Aksel:hmm
[06/05/23 00:12] Chewett:Oopsie
[06/05/23 00:12] :jakubhi agrees with Fyrd
[06/05/23 00:12] Fyrd Argentus:Love, yes, but is not easy for some.
[06/05/23 00:12] :Blackshade Rider also agrees with Fyrd

Fyrd for quest and event making. Ledah for his readiness to create chaos whenever there is an opportunity.
