[quote name='Maebius' timestamp='1328409074' post='103472'] I kinda don't like this idea. Water is already horridly depleted in Marind Bell, and this would just give people even more reason to continue doing so. [/quote] Perhaps we could seriously increase the max amount of water available in certain areas? And, to be honest, how is it possible that so little water is available at a lake?

And perhaps a Purse Cutter, an item that allows you to take a single sc from someone. Note, this would be mentioned in chat. So you would have to be sneaky about it.

What about various different punishments depending on the amount of illegal items you have. So, you you have like, 200 Nightshade and get caught with it, you can even get sent to jail the moment you are marked with it. Like a triggered effect... Or is that to much?

What if it's made so that you cannot go past your AP max with water?

Sure. It could have the effect of just one more way people can expand on their role.

I recall Mur talking about some items that can get you jailed, and this is what I eventually started to think about... Hidden items are items that can only be viewed by you. These are items that can get you jailed if you are caught with them. It could be things like Nightshade or Nightshade Harvesting tools. Nightshade would be a resource that can be harvested in the underground, and if you DO deplete it, the message that says that you did still shows up. Also, when trading these items, it still says so in chat. This could kinda make a "black market" in MD. To counter these hidden items will be a search warrant. The search warrant will be a shared item with limited uses. If someone with a search warrant does find that another person has hidden items, they can "mark" the items, making them detectable by all players. This "marking" would go away after a certain period of time... Say, after the next shared tools reset.

What if water restored AP? It would be very little amounts though. Say, 1 water per AP and 1 mineral water for 3 AP. And we can choose how much water to drink. (As we can choose to stop drinking) So, If I wanted to drink say, 10 water, I would restore 10 AP.

Also, what if for every place DURING a war someone dies, there are bones left? Like one or two? This would leave a sort of battlefield memorial as most people cannot harvest bone. >> Edit: I also think that death during wartime should have some penalties. Maybe something like you are movelocked and attacklocked for the duration of the battle? Maybe you could be sent back to the GoE and locked there?

2 sc on Princess Katt! >: )

Hmm... Well the idea was to prevent non-citizens or soldiers from walking on the battle field... So... Maybe a cost? As it should be a danger to walk in the middle of a war zone. What about War Time Ally Stats? Like i.e TW gets there normal stat increase from being TW but in the times of war, they get even more.

I agree, but there are some lands that would like to keep the element of surprise. I just feel that this would strip them of that right. Also what if ONLY citizens and enemy soldiers were allowed inside a land that is at war? So, if for some reason GG Ally is attacking Loreroot (Again, completely random example...) Then anyone NOT part of the war is instantly removed. Note, this would not remove citizens of a land who choose not to get involved in the war, only those from other lands who have nothing to do with the battle.

Can we stay on the main topic please? So what if there are no kings? That just means that a LAND can't declare war on another LAND until such things are dealt with. The idea is that BOTH Land Leaders and Ally Leaders can use this ability/spell/item. Then, once Land Leaders are taken care of, they too would get this "feature". In addition, I'd like to say I support the idea of Spoils of War. Perhaps it could be done with Yrth's resource idea and maybe a small stealing from the enemy Vault? But I do understand if that can be a problem with Land's deciding to become raiders...

What if we make it to were the Leaders declare war on just a specific Ally, and then either side has the ability to add any citizen to their ally for the duration of the war? And then, have there be three ways to end the war. Either A, you run out of time... Say, 7 days and B you kill all enemy soldiers. And finally C, the opposing Ally surrenders. As for B, this could also lead to a draw if both sides lose the same amount of troops.

What if there was a spell to declare war? This spell would be available ONLY to Land Leaders(Kings? Council?) and to Military Ally Leaders. This spell would not cost any heat and could be an item instead. Like, maybe a saber of some sort? This spell/item could only be used at the gates of the enemy. And then any other Allys or lands that wish to get involved in the war can run to the gates and choose whether they are joining the attackers or the defenders. This could create a sort of system for warfare. Also, the Attackers could choose who specifically they are attacking while using the spell/item. Maybe this could also effect how easily the enemies enter said gates? Example- KoB decide that for some reason or anther they want to attack GG and any citizen in the lands. (Just a random example) Said leader of KoB would approach the Gates of Ages and declare war against Land GG. (Sorry this seems so illegible... I guess my mind is groggy from not being able to get on MD lately. ) Note- I have no idea about any future wars, this is just another random idea I had.

Welcome new one!

[color=#333333][size=2] I hate you!” screamed Joey. It was another fight with his dad. Joey slammed the door and sat alone in his room again. He was so angry, but he couldn’t even remember why they were fighting. It didn’t matter; his dad always blamed him for everything. Joey could feel his hands tremble as anger raged through his very essence. He lay there, on his bed, feeling a horrifying mixture of anger and loneliness.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] The next morning during school, it was just another day. Except, today, Tom was especially mean. Tom was the school bully and was mean to everyone. But he was especially mean to Joey. Joey was walking alone in the hallways as always when he saw Tom walking in the opposite direction; right towards Joey. Right as Joey passed Tom, Tom reached over and grabbed his books, dropping them all over the ground. Tom and his friends just laughed, leaving Joey to pick his books back up. Joey didn’t really let it get to him. This was normal. Joey picked up his books, filing his papers back to where they belonged, and kept on walking.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] This is when he saw her for the first time. It was only for a moment, but she was still beautiful. He didn’t know who she was, but he suddenly felt his stomach curl into a thousand knots. Joey just looked back down at the ground and kept on walking. He knew he could never speak to her. Finally Joey got to his locker with his heart beating five times faster. Just as he began to spin the dial to open his locker, he was suddenly shoved forward; against his locker. He turned around only to see Tom’s wicked grin. “What’s the matter loser can’t open a stupid locker?” he asked. Joey just turned around and went back to opening his locker. Tom just laughed and walked off… this time.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] Come lunch time, Joey sat at his usual spot and his usual table, far away from anyone else. But that girl from the halls walked up to him with her tray of food. “Can I sit here?” She asked sweetly. Joey swallowed and replied nervously “Sure.” She smiled and sat down in front of him. “Hi, I’m Sarah” she said. Joey made a faint, nervous smile and said “I’m Joey”. Joey could feel his heart beat so fast, he was afraid it would hop out onto the table. The rest of lunch was silent as they sat there eating. The bell rang, and Joey glanced down at his tray. When he looked back up, she was gone.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] The next day was almost the same; she came and sat down in front of him during lunch. But this time, they talked for what seemed like hours. Joey couldn’t help himself, he just kept talking. But she didn’t seem to care, she just listened and smiled. Days went by and Joey felt happier than ever. Then, one day she stopped him. “Do you…" she hesitated "maybe want to go out with me?”. Joey paused, feeling as if time had frozen. He made a faint smile and replied “Sure.” For about a week, they spent time together in whatever way they could.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] Then one day, Tom was being especially abusive during school. Joey was walking Sarah to her class when Tom came by, walking as if he was the king of the world. Tom stopped and just to push Joey, spilling his books all over the floor. But this time, Joey got angry. “He won’t stop unless you do something” Sarah whispered. It made sense to Joey. Joey balled up his fists and struck Tom in the check. He felt so relieved! Joey swung again, then again. Feeling relief with each strike. Tom was so surprised he didn’t even have time to react. Blow after blow, Joey swung. Then he landed a blow right on his jaw, hearing a sickening crackle as he struck. Then the school cop showed up and took Joey by the arms, leading him away from the gathered crowd. Joey didn’t even realize others had begun to gather. But he couldn’t find Sarah.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] By the time Joey got home, the school had already called his dad. Joey walks into the house with a smile on his face, not even noticing the burning on his knuckles. “Fighting in school?” said his dad “Really?” Then, the fight broke out. Joey yelling about how justified he was while his dad yelling back, saying that it didn’t matter. Joey got angrier and walked out of the house. He got into his car and drove off. Then, on the side of the road, he stopped. He buried his eyes into his hands, resting his elbows on the steering wheel.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] He must have fallen asleep, because when he looked back up, it was dark. He started the car again to drive home. Surprise ripped through his chest when he seen Sarah was in the car with him. “We need to talk” she said. She began to talk, not making much sense to him. All he could understand was that they could no longer see each other. At first, Joey felt sorrow. But then, rage. He began to yell at her. A fight broke out, both of them screaming at each other. Joey’s anger roared through his body, enough to give him a headache. Finally he slammed on the accelerator, speeding the car out of control. Lost and angry, he drove with unrelenting speed. A curve in the road was dead a head, with a drop that could not be denied. Joey didn’t stop, and suddenly the car launched off the road, bouncing like a rubber ball.[/size][/color] [color=#333333][size=2] The next night police report was written. It revealed that a teen male drove off the road, slamming into a nearby tree, killing its only occupant.[/size][/color] This is a story I have written a little while ago. I was thinking of making a quest to see who can completely analyze it and determine who represnts what and so forth... But, I didn't feel like it.

Ha! I thought this was a common thing! I have been getting it since... *can't remember when*.

Maybe a sort of snake? Those are found in desert like areas and are well known for their venom... But that would greatly increase the idea of initial damage.

Congratz!

I guess I beat him to the punch.

I'll get it done "soon".

My Knator ate my homework.
