Re: Fade Candidate: January log, Kohaku and Raal perish

Sleepy Sorvitor is not the candidate to make dark side great again!

Re: Projectiles

Projectiles themselves aren't horrible - the fact that you can just buy an unlimited amount of them for the monopoly money that is WoTMUD gold crowns is pretty silly. Even sillier when you realize you can just sell equipment you find in FD barrel/Ram to get your money back. Just a poorly thought out...

Re: fireworks

I just wish game balance discussions and what is or isn't good in the game was a little less certain players knee jerk reactions to someone getting away who he thought shouldn't have. Most of us have been around long enough to have been on every side of these things, benefiting from them and gettin...

Re: fireworks

Hi viewers -- here's a game-within-the-game translation: Erulak takes a dig at his friends to make a wider point about an actual game issue. Sraeyn takes a dig at someone, to not really make a new point. Rig takes a dig at Sraeyn for taking a dig at someone, to also not really make a new point. Teve...

fireworks

It's 2023 - can we save us (and Yaerin/Rig) the embarrassment of fireworks acting as a get out of jail free card yet? People being launched across the WoTMUD equivalent of several hundred yards is not very immersive! Make them create one room where it's too thick and smokey to engage to use strategi...

I thought Moiraine just gated from 2R to TV.

Re: Not Rank 8 Zone sense

I think Arston is saying that gate and zone sense are superfluous to good smobbers because even with newbies in the group, they can always stay ahead. That was my takeaway too, but unlike Rig, I can read. Just think it's terrible reasoning. Why don't I just get characters at 1000 qps? We all know I...

Re: Not Rank 8 Zone sense

Got it - so gate isn't necessary to move groups large distances quickly. Don't see what the argument is then. Sorry these hordes of new players are such a burden to you, but I recommend not viewing them as burdens - maybe they'd be more comfortable just asking for "good people" to equip them if the...

Re: Rank 8 Zone Sense

DONT TELL ME THIS DOESNT HAPPEN BECAUSE IVE SEEN IT A THOUSAND TIMES. Eventually they get discouraged bc they feel like they are just being a burden in order to "lose" a bunch of times. How is this any different than "plz lead me around with gate, I am helpless and can't smob without it"? Are you l...
