Maebius Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Hello all. I figured it's been what, a year now, since I had my last Monthly Madness. So I'll start things over again with a very simple little quest. Bigger and better ones to come next month. What: A small writing quest. Nothing too fancy. Where: The Fish fountain in Marinds Bell. (the fish-clickable itself) When: Starting now, just before dark of moon, and lasting until the Light returns to it. (approx Feb 12th) How: Tell the fish 'Madness' to begin. Why: All participants will have thir names put in my Hat, and drawn by the sprogling (video proof as last time). Many different rewards. Coins, Spellstones, crits, and anything a sponsor may wish to include. Enjoy! (and thanks to my lovely friend Gort Hedera for adding the code for me there ;) ) nadrolski, Eagle Eye, Sir Blut and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acrisius Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 I wrote something in the text field, but when I clicked the "submit entry" button the page jumped or "scrolled" back in the beginning. There was no "we've received your entry" or any confirmation telling me that my entry was submitted. When I closed the pop up and opened it again, my text was still in the box. Did you receive my entry? Intrigue and Ungod 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 I will have to check on the clickie tomorrow (work/life today will keep me offline) but I've heard one other report of odd browser behavior happening, yet the submission stayed valid and saved. Thanks for the report on potential issues though. I'll confirm current entries ASAP! Intrigue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petty dodds Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 hm. i didn't have this issue but then it makes me wonder - Hey Maebius - how many entries do you have so far then? I can resend if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted February 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Looks like all entries are being recorded correctly. Not sure why some browsers are acting wonky, but all your entries are visible to me. I wil post them at the end of the time. :) Intrigue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted February 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Quest closed! (I miscalculated the timing, and it apparently locked a couple days ago rather than yesterday) I'll be trying to grab my camera and film the results drawing this weekend. I will also post all the submissions hopefully tonight or tomorrow morning. (local time, not server). Excellent results! You'll love them. ...soon! ;) petty dodds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted February 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Ok, here we go. The submissions.... in no particular order... results of prizes will be added in a few hours when the sprogling childe is available to pull names from my hat. :) [log='The Submissions:'] 1) "From Sage's keep to Mur's Dominion On the move, wandering around Underground to Vale of Oblivion Not hearing the familiar sound 'T is only when entering Loreroot A land i know tree by tree I perk my ears and it lifts my mood Now i can hear my family"2) Flames of the soul lost in verses Out of the blue, out of lies Unheard truths where is truth is useless Nest of shadows where fear is mine Tickling from within with touch of steel Another defeat, one more remorse Instead of victory that we need Nothing but battles are always close...3) Frantically i paced to and fro, the grains of sand dropping in slow motion Ominously the clouds gathered off in the distance Unknown memories remind me of things yet to come Nervously wringing hands fail to soothe my frayed senses Torment now my lone companion taunting me with irony Awaking with a start i rise to my feet unsteadily I gaze into the mirror at the gaunt reflection that cannot be me Nodding wearily i now travel east to find a resolution to this dream X4) From one unsuccessful newbie this awful incantation notes."5) The tingle within From the beginning to the end, Onward taught and backwards said, Under Mur's chaotic reign Nothing's lost and nothing's gained. Tell them all to sing this song As Magicduel grows on strong. Inside our hearts this realm lives on... Never forgotten, never gone. "6) Marind’s Fountain. ---- Fatigue from walking, Outside the carnival. Under the shade of trees, Near the old gates. Top of the marble stairs. A quick gulp. Imagining a forgotten girl. Now it’s time for a nap.7) For principles, darkenss is special. Only sound matters, not sight. Unnatural this might seem to some. Nothing, and everything. Terribly lonely, enclosed. Abandoned by the light. Illuminated individuals lose themselves. Nothing comes back out....8) From out of stone the numerals cry Out out, then to the gates did fly. Upon the stone a stair began Now down and down the walk of man To the place where life begins Air and water fire, then spins Into the path of bridges, Run! Never to see the setting sun."9) Fighting off the endless slime, Our resolve, always divine, Under pressure, lost in time, Never lose your spine... Tricky shades dimming the light, Angiens fleeing from out plight, Infiltrators left and right, Never lose the fight..."10) Five warriors walked towards the woods. One had a parchment that said no good. Unholy words, a letter written in blood. Now the forest of Loreroot was near. Today they'd deliver the message of fear. All of the forest will be theirs to share In the capitol they said the words: Now leave this land or die on our swords!" 11) Flourishing Entropy on the Loreroot's Hill Ongoingness of Life Surprisingly Endless Thrill Utopy had Always Been Here, Inside and Near Necrovion's Meditative Calmness for it... Dissolves the Fear Through Crude Golemus Letter Forest A Competition's Held of Who's Mind is Boldest Inoculation Through Enlightened Marind's Womb Narrowed Path Leads on to... Equally Enlightened Tomb"12) New beginnings From somewhere far away, I came unto this land. Others met have traveled also, some walking hand in hand. United by a mystery, yet we walk this realm alone. Never to return to what we once had called our home. Telling tales and fighting warriors, proving our simple worth. Aging naught, but learning much, and embracing this rebirth. In our smiles and in our sorrows, the realm is here to care. Never knowing what tomorrow holds, for this land we all do share."13) "Fire, Obviously hot, ready to cook, burn and melt Under its flames, a secret agenda Not surprisingly, an agent of entropy That spreads its flames And tends everything to disorder In a bid for chaos Not caring for the world of order14) Fond of riddles and of quests (Only not today), Under water willows rests None other than...Maeb. Time is passing - as he sleeps, Angiens patrol Marind. In his dreams, Maebius meets Nine (9!) gorgeous young girls ready to obey his every command!!! ill let the rest of the dream to your imagination, Maeb :-)"15) For many years it seems to me that Our society shrinks away from each other. Ubietous in nature, communities distant. Not inclined to travel the realm Unless quest related. Assuming this can be reconciled In realistic time, a breath of New life for MagicDuel, Community for All"[/log] Intrigue and petty dodds 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
