Jubaris Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) I heard something about people that participate in organization of the quest agreeing with BFH that the quest (this specific one!) will last few days longer than the festival. If I were you, I wouldn't worry about the revival. Edited July 20, 2012 by Rhaegar Targaryen Quote
Tom Pouce Posted July 20, 2012 Author Report Posted July 20, 2012 If its all set with Fyrd , then ok Quote
Maebius Posted July 20, 2012 Report Posted July 20, 2012 It was my understanding that the three leaders of the teams were remaining dead until their teams work with to revive them. As mentioned above: "If any team find the five "Revivers" for their leader revival. The respective leader will get back to life on the same ceremony." However, none of the teams have yet found the five.. thus Valldore Nal, Fyrd, and I are still dead. Good luck though! Perhaps the three teams can coordinate efforts? (OOC: I'll be a bit idle this weekend, possibly. Camp preparation, as I'm one of the den leaders) Quote

Fyrd Argentus Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 For the record, I'm just as much in the dark as Tom. I'm too busy to care much about being dead just now. In the grand scheme of things, I'm sure I'll get revived eventually. Blink of the eye and all that.... BUT I think this is a really crappy way to run a festival. Who is ever going to sign up to be on a festival team again, let alone agree to lead one, if the expected result is that they will be singled out to be made "dead"? It's a secondary effect that said person is then unable to participate in the remaining 2/3 of the festival in a meaningful way. Quite a reward for trying to get a team to pull some quests together. I didn't even agree to be the leader of our team. I think Tom is a little concerned because he sort of tagged me as leader. No worries Tom, it'll all shake out in the end. Think of it as a rite of initiation or such. I'm touched that you are concerned - thanks. Quite ironic that my main activity the last month or so was an attempt to get a reliable public channel open for reviving the dead.... (Zl-eye-f)-nea, Menhir, Esmaralda and 3 others 5 1 Quote
Nimrodel Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Oh please tom.. Stop whining. They'll be back. you can alone solve the whole revivors Quest. Amber and Gonzi would've sufficed along with you to solve Z's quest. Rest of the revivors needed just one person each. Hell I was there solving four out of five. In your team, an inactive member was killed. In our team, the most active member was killed. Only five people in our team participated in the Quests. one was killed, one was online 'by chance', so we asked him to help us out, one was never a part of team quests, and the reamining two of us solved them. Not without help of course. I asked my friends to help me wherever it was needed. And BFH had provided the papers so that the players could move wherever they wanted by jumping to him. Val has moved along to a lot of places with that. Also, val wasnt our leader either. he took the role of the leader in the last moment when chewett declined to be one. TEam two's condition was worse. only four players in their team were Active. out of those four, one was killed, and one didnt really help with the team quests. I dont see darkraptor or ignus complaining here about maeb dying... Infact they were there were there solving all the Quests. and winning them. Its all dependant on your perception. You have two tools to fix a broken machine. Instead of being upset why the machine was broken or why you dont have a full set of tools, try to fix the broken stuff with what you have. (P.S. I have a job and a life as well.) Edited July 21, 2012 by Nimrodel Tom Pouce, Watcher, Sunfire and 3 others 4 2 Quote

Nimrodel Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 Err... Clearly.. you totally miss the point. Its a quest genius. So there is a very very easy alternative. That is to Solve the quest. Why beg for help from others when you can easily do it by yourself? The whole Point of the quest was to inculcate team spirit in the team. Not to win it. The only reason I spent my nights sleepless was to make sure that I solve the quest and just so that Val could come alive. Have you done that? I have travelled to the east in search of revivors and stayed there fo a whole day just so that I could find a revivor. Did you do that? All the time I could've spent in studying or training in MD or having fun talking at GoE or making tea or helping a friend gain wins or Spending quality time with my RL friends, or catching up on my novel, or going out for a movie, or catching up on my sleep, I spared it for a quest. Did you do that? Do you think BFH is so stupid as to just kill off the leaders and not revive them at all? The only reason he didnt state this clearly is people wouldnt even bother to solve the quest thinking that 'Ah.. Its just a matter of three days. The leaders will get revived anyway.' Shows how less the people are concerned about their team leader. Many people were busy in the quests in the summer fest and not every revivor in the Quest could log on at the times we wanted them to. Hence the post and the postponing. ITs very simple you know. YOU need to put in an effort to solve the quest. You need to use you resources even if their limited because you have a sane mind and your mind is your greatest resource. All your posts simply say that 'Oh people of MD! I cant help revive my Leader back by myself! Because BFH was a ***** By killing the leaders! PLease do the reviving work for me! Oh poor me, I dont have active team members as well! Oh Poor me! I cant solve anagrams! Oh poor Fyrd! He cant move at all and participate at all! Please help us because we cannot do our work by ourselves' That is whining. PS: If increasing the font size and changing the colour of the font to red could make what is untrue true, MD would be a different game. INstead of spending all that time in colouring and making your post look big, you could've spent it in trying to solve Z's anagramsor trying to finish off the quest. Just proves my point.

You are exaggerating... Totally. First anything is to be expected on MagicDuel. People kill for fun. This event I gave up a turn out of the Kill and shown all a great way on how to use Kill on MagicDuel, Killing just for fun? or perhaps give a turn out to dead and unlock a quest (For both leader quests and serial killer one) Your dead implies teamwork. implies getting involved, implies using the tools I gave you. Perhaps you could communicate with me You know me well my friend and you know I always try to make possible any requests. [quote name='Fyrd Argentus' timestamp='1342835932' post='117848'] It's a secondary effect that said person is then unable to participate in the remaining 2/3 of the festival in a meaningful way. Quite a reward for trying to get a team to pull some quests together. [/quote] That's not correct. I gave you an important tool. You the 3 team leaders have one of my pass papers, which allow you to jump to me any second. The only leader who actually exploded the possibilities was Val. He asked me several times: "Could you please go to X and Y location?" I did it. The purpose of the item was exactly for allowing movement and continuity on your team quests. Yes with a little bit difficulty, but still a fairly decent option since I was most of the time online and any of you have direct access to me.

Quite ironic that my main activity the last month or so was an attempt to get a reliable public channel open for reviving the dead.... [/quote] Teams were requested multiple, MANY, times to pick up a leader. The first day of the Festival I summoned all team members who signed up. A representative of each team was selected and asked who was their leader. Your name was the one mentioned for your team. I assumed you previously agreed that because this was a requirement told even on the sign up sheet. That's actually not my problem, but perhaps show some communication problems inside your team. Which it's why this sort of quests are important. Communication is essential and teamwork requires it. If your team solve the quest you actually demonstrate an effort was done. The revival is not impossible and the quest I think is one of the easiest I ever organized with simple clues A team should be able to easy solve it. The longer it takes depends on how you communicate and do teamwork Side note: ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN DURING MY EVENTS, do not expect me to stay with the same routines. That will be just boring.

Fyrd Argentus Posted July 23, 2012 Report Posted July 23, 2012 Yes, I exagerate to get my point across. My point was, I am more concerned about the lesson others will draw than about the dead-ness itself. Perhaps I did let a little bitterness creep in and what I said was not helpful to my own cause. I was trying to support my team-mate, Tom, by explaining why he was posting as he did. Even though he is newest to MD, and lacks the experience in "politically correct" posting (hence needing some defense), Tom has been the most active solver on the team. He and AmberRune have been great. Yes, mobility/death has not been my limitation on activity during this festival. As I said, I didn't want to be leader as I knew I had other commitments outside the realm. Mostly I helped organize quests. If Tom or Amber had been picked by the grim reaper, it would have been very grim indeed.... Tom Pouce 1 Quote
