The two sides of the quest are nearly identical, except that the quest giver is different (it should be obvious which one is which) and you hunt different critters during the quest. They're of more or less equivalent difficulty. The quest givers liv…
Just be sure to read all of the room descriptions very carefully. Once you know all the hiding spots you're pretty much golden; as I recall, the Mastermind (for either side) isn't terribly tricky, and like many Lusternia quest puzzles it's a …
Pshh, I'm in Washington, D.C. I stood on a hill and turned around slowly. Nothing but fireworks blooming from there to the horizon, in every direction. It was magnificent.
You just have to find your exercise, I find. I hate hate hate hate hate hate running, but hiking, cycling, or kayaking do it for me. I'm in the best shape I've ever been in this summer because cars are hell in DC, so I've been making do with …
Kruppe is great. I just got to Midnight Tides, and the total lack of connection to any previous characters is a drag. I would have put the books down if I didn't enjoy Tehol and Bugg so much.
In other news, Globglob, the Lusternia Institute of Blindingly Obvious Science has released a new report which states that people don't like to lose, and will do everything within reason to ensure they don't lose. We'll bring you more at eleven. …
See, again though, you're conflating IC and OOC attitudes. You can adopt a "I will do anything for my org" attitude for your character, but find bashing a serious drag as a player, and that's not a hypocritical attitude. Maybe you oppose the change…
Just like it's possible to play a complete douchebag while not being a terrible person IRL, it's also possible to play a super-patriot while not being willing to do literally anything for your org IRL. (I'd like to think that quite a lot of p…
Ah, crud, it ran off my buffer. It's something about a stream of butterflies drifting north from Gaudiguch and enveloping Hallifax in a storm of probability energy, and the Primary Generator generates a temporal shield to protect it.
On a happier note, I could have SWORN the Spheres lost all their facets when they died, instead of 10% or so. It's like a mildly terrible Christmas gift. I didn't actually want underwear, but it's nice to have!

I'm sure I'll feel differently the next time I barely contribute to a
raid on Vortex that successfully takes down all of the Fleshpots and
shows everyone that Hallifax isn't just a bunch of really good wr…
I'm really, incredibly frustrated right now. It's been a terrible day IRL and I honestly do not have the capacity right now. Sorry everyone. I'm checking out and going outside.
Mmhm. It was very sad for me for another reason-- I always watch Game of Thrones with my cat, but I'm off doing my internship, so I couldn't. No cat for me. in General DissatisfactionComment by IleeinJune 2014
I'm always super excited when I manage to script something extremely crude and basic but functional. In this case, I made a script, an alias, and a trigger, the combined effect of which is to keep me connected through nine timeout ticks, then kick m…
Munsia is suggesting, in Munsia's way, that the Northern Alliance suffers from a peculiar phenomenon whereby the "good guys" get a lesser quality of player, as observed in World of Warcraft. Which is of course terribly kind of her.
Mmhm. No point having a rift to guards unless the whole point is people accidentally transversing and dying. Having a rift two rooms outside of org territory is just as easy-- and just as safe.
I think I'll be using my quest goop + a little tiny bit extra to pick up a fesix briefcase so I can stop remaking my poor documents satchel every time it decays.
Portius is a scientist, which automatically means Ileein is likely to respect him. He's also done a lot to drive the growth of Hallifax's library. Librarians are some of Ileein's favorite people, too, so there's that. His science is appropriately Ha…
