  • It is a rare exception, but is valid.  There are some things that are intended to be able to accomplish when you just have the balance it consumes.
  • Someone has been consistently draining Leo daily, and just wiped Virgo out yesterday too.
  • (Quote) @Breandryn

    Fits right in with the previous conversation.

    Not... quite.  If you get rid of the dominators, you are supposed to empower the krokani.  If you empower them, the one you empowered poofs and it is replaced by another.  If dominators are around, once you kill the krokani it g…
  • (Quote) Games tend to have rules, and you're supposed to play them within those boundaries.  This one has a lot of leeway, but "roleplay" is one of the rules.  That is what rolepoints are for, they are a demerit system when someone is caught …
  • (Quote) I have a policy of not clicking disagree on posts and posting instead, but with this one, it's actually kind of hard.  That's just... not how this game works.  It explains why you go to OOC so quickly, but you know, that's one of the …
  • (Quote) We've named-and-shamed people who thought that it was in-character to spam the spit emote at people hundreds of times per second... just because it's in-character for the character doesn't mean it's a Good Thing.

    That said,…
  • (Quote) Depends on the *blix and the location.  For example, bubblixes will work fine on their associated bubble when you are indoors.  Most blixes have a "known plane" requirement (or associated bubble), some can't be used when higher than E…
  • Please flip on death (with the exception of janitor powers).
  • (Quote) As near as I can tell, when you are not scum you are your own worst enemy.
  • Infamous seems more apt, given the posts. :P
  • Tah'vrai is an actual thing where if they don't do it the forests die.  So.  Yeah.  Its fae-meaning is "Duty" / "Obligation" / etc. (since no Fae word has an actual literal translation, they are more concepts).  It is also a big part of why the fore…
  • (Quote) If you want to move on, the best way is to stop doing the things that cause forum conversations, not to beg people to stop talking about them when you do.  Because every time you do them, the conversation is going to continue.  If you don't…
  • (Quote) Er.  Didn't you post "I do what I want" just a few days back?
  • Squibbles, a small rex hamster scurries in from the down, chittering angrily.

  • (Quote) People have raided enemy territories to get suspect to drop before.  Enemy territory isn't the answer here, at least not player-org-enemy-territory.  Murder someone, raid to get suspect to drop (but since you auto-declared them, you c…
  • (Quote) In most zones (Sea of Despair / Inner Sea are notable exceptions), if you declare / attack someone, the suspect drops and they can 1) Kill you right then and there (no suspect because you declared them), and 2) Declare and kill you once mor…
  • (Quote) I didn't notice, because I actually uploaded a black square to my box the day they came out.  Maybe the forums just decided we needed picture-equity!
  • I thought briefly about whipping up a pile of paintings of trees and exhibiting them all around Hallifax.

    I decided not to.

    Such a griefer, I am.
  • (Quote) I never assumed it was you (you are the one making that inference here).  Your cube was still sitting at Glumki.  If I had assumed it was you, I would have murdered the thing (and you would have received a message that I did).  Doesn'…
  • (Quote) That is correct.  Also, enemies of Continuum will get insanity on Continuum whether or not the construct is up (the construct increases the rate).  Also-also, if enemied to both Night AND Moon, a person actually will get insanity in F…
  • (Quote) Yep, but this only works if someone did the quest to fill the well (which can only be started on the full moon).  The always-empty well makes a lot of things "technically possible" but not actually possible in fact the bulk of the tim…
  • Approximately 14 for Glom, but there is some downward pressure on that because if you gather more shadows too quickly it just poofs when you drop at the drums (no feather or shadow increase).  Yet the shadow is now gone and you have to wait for it t…
  • (Quote) No, that would be in reference to me asking why Hallifax puts up with this.  From my standpoint the question is still valid, though, since whatever they're doing doesn't seem to actually be putting a damper on it at all.
  • More unfortunate that Hallifax seems to be condoning all the stuff he's doing, since it is still ongoing.  "I do what I want" doesn't seem like a very Hallifaxian saying, for some reason.  Oh well.
  • You don't.  Only Ambassador and Trade can withdraw money from their ministries.  Others are supposed to have their funds used by their abilities (librarian by publishing books, power by summoning guards, etc).  Unfortunately, Culture also has a *sec…
  • Reason for why this is necessary, though-- with no Glomfolk around (Dylara had just logged off, Lysistrata not on, nobody says anything on any clans except Steingrim and Lavinya on Crux):

    Falmiis has been exsanguinated by Glumki Thorneye.…
  • It is all in General Reformation.  Maybe they are trying to reform us into more standard gamblers.  "Go to the casino!  Get off your little games!"
  • (Quote) That is a lot of guys to be married to.
  • That analogy seems a bit off, though.  It is more like having some barrels of gasoline.  Handy to have, sure.  You don't really want someone to steal them from you.  But you don't want to drink it, bathe in it, smell it, or even really look at it.  …
