    I was walking by in Icewynd when I came across this room...

    Before the Towering Statue of Talan.
    This location is flooded with shallow, crystal clear water. A blizzard rages through the locale. The Statue of Talan stands menacingly here. Waddling around aimlessly, a large duck-billed platypus cuts 
    a majestic figure, bedecked in a scintillating golden-brown pelage and stylish woven-reed saddle.
    You see exits leading south and up.

    And I was super confused at a player's name in a room description, when I looked at the statue...

    Standing two stories tall, this pale, marble-wrought statue is carved into the ivory likeness of Talan, dressed in robes. Upon the rectangular base of the statue is carved, 'In Memory of Talan, the Hero of Climanti' under which is a cylindrical hole.
    It weighs about 3000 pounds.
    The Statue of Talan is holding:
    Nothing.
    It has the following aliases: statue.

    I'm assuming this is a result of a quest completion, which I found to be suuuper cool.
    Yeah, it is. During the event, when Chade initially helped the Ice Angels, the statue was of him. Think Ixion and a few other people have had turns at that too.

  • Yep, icewynd quests, whoever does the saving/comdemning souls in climanti past (City of Climanti) gets the statue and room name alteration (and lore book and racial bonus).

    Some of the best quests in the game IMO, but prepare for a metric ton of work to get there.

    We also have the Gastronomists. :(
  • PLEASE

    Fain isn't here, we don't need to be wary about gods taking over other orgs anymore
  • Maybe I'm alone, but off my own experiences I don't think men are the only culprits of being embarrassingly forward and intimately inept.

    It's just funnier when a guy fails at doing it, so I guess you hear about it more.

    Ask any woman in LA who is on the dating scene. 

    Ask them how many unsolicited pictures of Mr. Wang they get. Expect answers in terabytes. 
  • Yeah, but the point is that there are also a lot of women who are over-eager to flash their sweater stretchers or request pics of the meatsword without prompt.

    Myself and some of my [much more] promiscuous friends have dozens of such stories.

    I think the important message is that some people [of both genders] should be way better at discerning consent. I don't want to see a random girls hotdog holster more than she wants to see my sausage slab.

    I could not agree more. 
  • Remember, only men tell raunchy jokes about genitals and text people pictures of their various bits. We're all horrible, really

    Nah, I've also seen "ladies" throwing pictures of their who-has around via text. Loose people be loose.

    Tonight amidst the mountaintops
    And endless starless night

  • Annnd... six weeks of late night revolts. Can we fix this, please? I mean, really. Other people would like to participate that don't live on the other side of the world and they keep happening around the same exact hours.

  • I think something is screwy with the RNG if they keep happening in the same 2-4 hour time span.

    Other people do participate. They cycle through timezones gradually, the same way they have for the past 10 years. 

    My tweet: Dracnari is pretty spiffy for a race. The extra bashing attack chance actually lets me permalink astral nodes again.

    It gets its own crit, and can fire on beast attacks as well as whip/staff. Sometimes I even oneshot mobs when the beast attack triggers the breath attack and I get a crit. 

    Also has some nice pk implications, if a bit unreliable.

    Can vouch for how unfun this can make things for otherwise unrelated parties. Makes a girl want to continue alting.

    Well how -you- doin'?
    Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

    I had two designs pass almost within an hour of their submission. Thanks @Charites, design approvers, and anyone else who had a hand in it.

    Hnnnnnng tension increasing. I did something a bit unorthodox in my design which I ran by them, now it's resubmitted and -should- presumably be ok but I'm not 100% sure and waiting for the yay or nay is killing me (because if it's another no I'll need to adjust and resubmit it -again- and the ticking clock looming over me is making me all nervous.)
