  • I like the alternate conflict suggestions. Sphere and Fleshpot raids are fun as an attacker but leave the attacked org with a lot of not very interesting cleanup. It'd be good to speed that up if the shield isn't going to fall or recovering it after…
  • I think my busy period at work is done. The annual publication is nearly complete, two of the vacancies I've had since April are filled and the last just needs to pass security checks, and I've got a plan to make sure everything runs more smoothly n…
  • I kill them in about ten blows with a wonderwand tuned to fire.

    I like this quest better than the last one. The balls were fun and sometimes really easy but I often seemed to log in after they'd all decayed so ended up with 18 days done. …
  • It doesn't seem so, I think they count as different artifacts. There's an ARTISHOP TRANSFORM but I couldn't use it for this (what is it for?)

  • Ah, then yes that'd be a handy suggestion.

  • Neat, thanks! I tried TOUCH (and push, stroke, lick etc.) but haven't found the right one. It's not in the help files so if anyone knows that'd be great.

  • When you get curios or ikons from presents or the Wheel it'd be more exciting if it revealed which ones you just got.

    Also, may be going down a rabbit hole but when you get presents with a potential org theme it could be nice to smartly m…

  • SAYTO does work so you just need to retrain yourself to always use it (I forget all the time).

    Or maybe write an alias that translates SAY TO into SAYTO? But that would block a few things you'd actually say... so something clever with m&a…

  • We've got a new IT system at work. 

    It has Office 365, uses an iPhone 6 for authentication, fingerprints on the laptop and phone, and no network cables. The whole office network is wifi now (~3000 people) and I keep losing connection tryi…
  • I liked when Batman's MegaZord hadoukened Popeye out of the Thunderdome.
  • One's the French president.
  • With two iron coins I got a doll of Gorgulu (15db) and a superior rune of psychic enhancement (300cr). Can't complain!
  • Aetherflares! I think my turret proficiency went from 3% to 8%. I'm a little less clueless and Enigma's Gambit had some smart tactics to learn from.
  • That's awful! Bad enough someone would do it but to upset your family and mess with your work is disgusting.
  • (Quote) Yes! It was 1am and I spent 20k goop rather than lose three hours I'd already done. Thank you too whoever gooped it because I'd have given up otherwise.

    I guess tips like needing undead influencing could go into the wiki or…
  • Finishing a quest:

    [Redacted] "hands you a generous sum of gold, flashing a charming smile." - Ha! The 'generous sum' was only 1,000 gold which wasn't a lot given the quest (Feyranti Heir) took me about 5 hours with all the resets ne…

  • The kouseki flower and lizard fireworks are awesome, especially the flower! I really like the guild folk from Gaudiguch - Sayma, Akuchi and Goon Kokra Moen.
  • 53 spins (+ the 5 coins from the Wheel):

    55,808 gold (5 spins)
    6 spins experience
    16 curios (10 spins)
    2 dolls
    7 days truefavour
    4 days lucky clover
    9 bound credits
    6 dingbats
    173 lessons (5 spins)<…
  • I survived work and made it to Easter! All publications got published, end of year assessments written, queries (mostly) on target with three people instead of five.

    And the next installment of Lemony Snickett is out today. in Real World Raves Comment by Dys March 2018
  • I like illuminati and have always found them fine against denizens for exploring and questing (though these days I have artifacts to help speed things up further). Increasing crits by raising your level and using golden cookie or crit food speeds th…
  • I pay £5,000 a year to travel 40 miles a day by train to get to work. A same day ticket from London to Cardiff is about £130, for 150 miles.
  • A shadowy tree on a crepuscular background, detailed with liminal and umbral shades.
  • Rave for the Gaudiguch celebration - processional, dance and monument! Thank you for all the work that went into it.
  • Yes. Mrak's interpretation makes sense. I'll bug it or ask Danquik to envoy it to see if it's intended.

    Since most attacks are a (% of target max + fixed amount) debuffs are already blunted.
  • I got stuck on the stone sarcophagus as clue three or four. After years of playing there are still loads of places I've never been to. If I'd not got stuck on that there were at least half a dozen I'd never have got, but I had fun helping people wit…
  • (Quote) They're all great but I love that Jester so much.
  • What do the bookbinding curios create, tints? Magic ink?
  • I finished the anniversary scavenger hunt!

    Also rave for Lusternia scavenger hunts in general, they're nicely written and fun. Even if it takes months to solve. in Lack of Raves VI: Rave Today, Tweet Tomorrow Comment by Dys January 2018
  • That's great, thank you!
  • We protect the elemental lords so they probably owe us some kind of mutual deal.
