  • Maybe if they're not in newton and are below level 20, a message: The Newton Quest calls you! Type NEWTON to begin.
  • I agree it shouldn't be overly strong. However, I like the concept of village feelings, i.e., doing things in villages during non-revolt periods will sway how they'll feel towards your org when the revolt happens. It gives motivation for orgs to kee…
  • Regarding Vengeance, I really am not on board with changing it. I'm really not on board with making PK on prime any easier or less costly than it is. We could look at xp costs off-prime but, again, they are there for a reason (if no one remembers) b…
  • Carriage ride (stand at a Nexus and get a quick ride to any village on Prime).

    Only to villages your city/commune controls? Really don't think this would be used unless the cost is so low as to …

  • Aetherspace guide (pay a gnomish aethercrew to quickly and automatically take you to an aetherdock. Limited to Prime only, perhaps?).

    Not crazy about that.

    Aether crews for hire…

  • Hrm, I can't seem to post the rest of my post!
  • Blessings bought with gold.

    Regarding blessings, I'm dubious about adding more buffs outside of karma. However, inspired by an idea on another thread, what if karma &#…

  • Regarding blessings, I'm dubious about adding more buffs outside of karma. However, inspired by an idea on another thread, what if karma blessings cost gold as well as karma? In other words, for each point of karma you need, you must also pay 5,000 …
  • Regarding conflict, as I mentioned before, it is incredibly difficult to design and implement a conflict system that is fair, doesn't give 'winning' orgs a big advantage (and still be meaningful) nor depress a 'losing' org. It's funny how we can loo…

  • (Quote) ROFL! That's what I meant! *ahem*
  • Lessons for credits are not an option for us. Feel free to contact IRE on that one!
  • Where is your cake shop? I'd love to order one of your cakes one day!
  • (Quote) Praying to a god and otherwise contacting them RP wise is a good start. However, if you can show a true commitment to the project rp-wise, that would go a long way. Start a clan devoted to the project, write a treatise about it,…
  • (Quote) Don't you think newbies are overwhelmed already that libraries and stages may just make them even more overwhelmed? Just asking!
  • (Quote) I guess the thing is that we aren't aware of what "elements are considered dysfunctional" unless people tell us, which is one reason I start these threads every so often and recall we went through an enormously long process of h…
  • (Quote) I completely agree about focus on new players! Again, I don't want a long newbie intro (frankly I wouldn't mind getting rid of it completely) but maybe we could extend the Newton entry level to 30.

    I'd be interested …
  • (Quote) I'm not sure what you mean by "sprucing up" what we already have! That's a bit overly general to understand. Feel free to give particulars!

    Regarding impale lines (or any other lines), you should start a separate thr…
  • (Quote) As Zvoltz said, the perception that we are focusing on something like ikons or curios as the expense of other development is really not true. That said, I would be interested in knowing what conflict mechanics we could improve u…
  • (Quote) Well, some things would be pretty unlikely in an RP sense (e.g., turning the Ebonglom Wyrdling into a furrikin). However, we would certainly be open to player initiatives to have some big goals. Keep in mind, though, that if it …
  • (Quote) Glad to hear from a new player! We do have Wild Nodes every 2 weeks which is a regular event for fighters. I'm not really sure a betting system would work well (players could just make bets outside any system if they really want…
  • So what's in those threads, what's your favorite (and doable) gold sink ideas?
  • Feel free to offer suggestions for gold sinks! We're always looking for them!
  • You didn't set this up as a Q&A!
  • Lottery curios don't include quest curios, sorry. Player's choice is magic item, dmp, buff or travel.
  • I added the influence runes!
  • Ok, I created the World Library, put some of the subcategories in it and got rid of a few categories. What do you guys think?
  • FYI, I don't think there's a way to confine access to orgs, though we could have org groups for everyone (just they'd be completely public).

    I like the idea of a World Library section!
  • It's the picture of Gaudiguch from the website, which I took into Photoshop and chopped it up and recreated.

    The original pic is by the same artist that did all our org a…

  • (Quote) OMG, I read that as "breast enhancement pills" and spent a few moments trying to figure out what we had in Lusternia that this could refer to!
  • Unfortunately, we don't have much flexibility so there won't be multiple themes that you can choose from. Sorry!
