Pain 1: Telling Murry about it that i couldnt do any work

[spoiler]

(email to Manuel Tanase)

im participating in a "dont go on the forum quest" for a wish point becuase i really want more wishpoints and therefore will have to forsake all of my forum work for many months.

 

Just telling you since i know you also have no work to do whatsoever so you could manage the forum.

 

Cool story bro.

Pain 2: Peace forum work delayed for 3 months

[spoiler]

(chat transcript)

lashtal: *nods to Peace* Kalimera

Chewett: Yo peace, the addition of the user to the necro forumns will have to wait

Chewett: until i finish with the "DO NOT GO ON THE FORUM" querst

Chewett: if you have issues please feel free to raise then with numerous felix or whatever his name is

*Peace*: That is accepted, Chewett.

Chewett: its appearntyly going to be at most 3 months

Chewett: which isnt going to be fun, but meh

Chewett: its a wishpoint, so clearly worth it? :))

*Peace*: Three months?

Chewett: yup

*Peace*: *chuckles.* Anything for a wishpoint, I guess.

Chewett: indeed, quite a lot of pain for you guys ofc...

DARK DEMON: *yawns* Not sure if this is worth Black Water

Syrian: we can be the proof of pain you need to win that WP then chew

to me (presumably Chewett)

 

I am nowhere near a computer right now...so he did a QUEST that asks you not to be on the forum? Like for how long? And how is even possible to check that..

I don't understand whats in his mind, is this a joke?

Ackshan is running it so you can talk to his if you want

Someone who wants a wishpoint for specifically not doing his work

Pain 4: The council are not amused

Re: No forum work until quest ended

Hello Chewett,

 

Good luck with the quest although we highly discourage such types of quests.

 

We can't stop the quest since no rules were broken but we encourage you and the community not to participate in it. The forum is a very important part of the gane and encouraging players to stay out of it is definitely not how we want things to run.

 

If you feel this quest is wrong, then don't encourage it (we feel the same way so we night think of adding new rules in order to prevent them - bit this is also up to the community and their feelings towards this type of quests).

 

 

Please keep us updated regarding your availability.

Pain 6: Felix asks me about my progress

[spoiler]

(chat transcript)

Chewett: (crappy)

Chewett: (harder to work with MD not being able to access forum)

Chewett: (can't actually talk with public properly, cant ask for opinions...)

Syrian: (more pain? :p)

Chewett: (features i want to discuss, are now being left for months because I cant actually discuess then, just means that the things get delayed further)

Chewett: (no skin off my back, just means you guys dont get input on features nor get features at all)

Syrian: (well done felix)

: lashtal passed Skin to Chewett

Numerius Felix: (ironically Chewett seems to be the only one participating...even the people who actually understand it aren't going the distance. 3 months is a lot...which is why I didn't ask it)

[/spoiler]

 

Pain 7: Update to council

[spoiler]

(another email through MD system) Message 1 of 543

Endless No Forum Quest

From bugs@magicduel.com

To contact@magicduel.com

Date Today 21:46

 

You requested that i update you as and when and i have recently been informed of the fact that the quest is actually meant to be endless and that it wont end until numerius deems there is a good enough submission. I did not know this when i started and would not have started the quest if i knew this.

 

He has stated that there wont be any judging for at least 3 months, this means i might be not reading or doing forum for much longer than the 3 months.

 

If you have any comments on my suggested action it would be useful. Mainly since i do not want to break my word on this quest and therefore will be unable to discuss some of the features I was discussing such as (blacked out phrase) which needs the publics view.  This means the (blacked out word) will need to be delayed for a while.

 

Thanks

Chewett

[spoiler]

 

Player Name to receive reward: Lord Tipu
Period of Trial: (3-04-13) - (7-04-13)
Proof of Pain:

From the time i joined MD Forum i have created this Epic eternal relationship with the forum mods. The Bond is soo strong that with just 4days of inactiveness i had felt severe pain. The Pain of not receiving any warning PMs from the mods. Yess thats right ..i can't sleep ..i can't poop and even i can't fart without reading their Awe inspiring lovely response for my posts.

Entry 3

[spoiler]Handy Pockets

Period of Trial: August 2012 to 6/16/13
Proof of Pain: Still recovering from pain

 

 

Could not remember my password, I missed out on so many things in MD.  I missed all the fun

:cool:

[/spoiler]

Entry 4

[spoiler]

Player Name to receive reward: Fang Archbane
 

Period of Trial: One second before you reading this, to the end of this. (time of posting: 17 June 2013 - 12:33 AM)

Proof of Pain: Shortly after starting this quest, i had a panic attack of epic proportions and had to quit it immediatly, only to return. As i could not bear to leave it for even a minute, i feel that my pain is the truest, strongest, most relatable pain that there is. The pain of a true MD Addict.

 

[/spoiler]

Entry 5

[spoiler]

I think I started on the 20th March and ended it until recently. I didn't keep track perfectly, so pardon me if the timing is wrong.

 

Player Name to receive reward: Shadowseeker
Period of Trial: (20.03.2013) - (16.06.2013)
Proof of Pain: There's not too much for this, just a few notes. I also did get demoted from being a forum mod after a very long time of being one. (And while this is partially due to me leaving the forums for a while, I did hand it a notice of future resignation a long long while ago. Just kept delaying it and lurking while doing some mod work.)

 

At some points I almost clicked on the links in the mood panel in MD too. And seeing the post your info there etc announcements ingame didn't really help either.

 

[spoiler]

25.03

I want to go see the day of fear analysis the most. I miss the forums, though I'd skip over things anyways.

26.03

Wanted to put my bookmark back to realize I wouldn't.

29.03

Realized I wanted to check on day of fear info. Curiosity about the ward, results, etc...can't go check.

05.04

Being unable to check on quests and the likes sucks.

14.04

MD Anniversary and I'm missing out on quests and everything....but I'm busy with other stuff too, can't be helped.

28.05

Been a while, less busy, but I feel like I don't really want to return to the forums anymore by now.

[/spoiler]

[/spoiler]

Entry 6

[spoiler]

 

player name: Rophs

Period of trial:may 30-jun 1

 

evidence of pain:

I cannot give any true evidence other than my word but I was constantly panicking that I might die in the DoM quest

[/spoiler]

Edited August 21, 201312 yr by Ackshan Bemunah

I have added a transcript of Chewett's Proof of Pain for those reluctant to download a pdf from storenow.

Though the results for Fang's entry were certainly unusual, it is not really appropriate to call it a "successful entry"...Therefore, he will not be receiving memory stones.

 

The rest of you will receive your six memory stones when I find you online.

 

 

LE: 6 =/= 5

It's east to choose ALL options. Nice poll!

Correct, that was how wishpoint selection was made.

 

This can now be closed.
