I mainly have not purchased a ticket yet because I don't know if I will have enough money for an airfare saved up in time for the convention, being on a students budget and all that stuff, plus having to fly from New Zealand (costs around $1600 loca…
Stuck with no internet access until january 4th, got paid this morning and went to the landlords office expecting to be able to top up my account only to find he left earlier than advertised originally.

Do like ^_^ I used to play the Alto Saxophone when I was younger - would still be playing it if I could afford to actually buy one (had to give it up when I left college since I was renting the instrument and could not afford t…
I have told maybe ONE person who a couple of my alts are. For reasons that have been stated (namely that it seems some people can't keep quiet), I will not tell ANYONE my alts unless I know I can implicitly trust them.
Sorry, that is what I meant, the gnomes. Never mind though, I misread the timestamp and saw the time was earlier in the afternoon. Makes sense with you getting 2 presents, keeping that in mind.
You quickly unwrap a sopping wet present, which sprays glittering silver
dust and cheerful confetti into the air, and excitedly pull a Great Rune of the Tobacconist from within.
That kind of repercussion is an EXTREMELY slippery slope though, especially if someone ends up getting maggotted when they were paying full attention to their tasks and doing their job (as has been mentioned earlier in the thread, killing another Ce…
Bleh, lucky sod. I'm still at <1% chance of getting an ultimate present, with my counter sitting at 33 presents (The nerf to presents also kicked in just as I was getting to the point where my ultimate counter would have started going upwards. …
Agree with the exponential increase. Prevents abuse at the higher end of the scale while also letting people who are missing that one piece they have been trying to get for MONTHS finally complete it.

One thing that kind of gets to me is how setting a target breaks a teleport - there has been a couple of times when I have started teleporting to someone, then someone designates a target over the clan aether, causing my trigger…

I've had that happen before - I just BARELY caught the bus in time, it was at the bus stop and the last couple of passengers were getting on when I arrived.
Get the place dusted for fingerprints ASAP - they are bound to have left some kind of trace of their presence. Also check with anyone within maybe a 3-4 house radius of your property, someone may have seen or heard something.
AFAIK Nexus is no longer supported by IRE now that the HTML5 version is available and is the default client that links in the website point to. Also don't forget that with the way the Nexus client is set up, it technically should no longer be able …

If they don't like it, they can miss out on participating. As you said, your ship - your rules. No reason the other people on the ship should be penalised because one person can't be buggered to pay attention to what they are …
With regards to foreign languages, I will admit I do like using latin - it is where I got the name Umbra Tenuitas (Illusion/Shadow of Serenity) from for my symbol. I agree that foreign languages should be used sparingly though, while it may sound l…

I'm SERIOUSLY hoping that is a bug. Feels a little wrong that you can pay RL money to build a curio that spits out free artifacts every so often.
(EDIT: Just looked at the announcement, it mentions "a coupl…
To be perfectly honest, one of my greatest gripes is that it requires 150 hours logged before one can contest - I know of people who have been interested in contesting for a vacant or dormant position, but before they could do so, they effectively n…
I've heard of a few people, I know a couple of people live in the Wellington and Christchurch regions and know of one other person that lives in the Auckland region, though I have not had a chance to meet them.
Personally I'm a teensy bit grumpy that it's another collection that requires RL money to get the curio pieces - I have a decent number of credits tucked away, but due to financial issues I simply can't warrant forking out the kind of money needed t…
