Just wait until you read all of the others. Mine are the worst in the set.

On the epic questing part:
-Make a bunch more quests than are actually required, and let people choose X of them to do for the epic so that they have a personalized experience. Maybe make them repeatable and have each one generate a seque… -
Random collection of if-there-was-infinite-development-resources things:
-Lots of room for customization artifacts here. Pay to customize your one shrine (Appearance or maybe even the message for offering), for example. I know that Portiu… -
Following the pattern of Portius being too lazy to go to shops and wanting artifacts to enable his laziness:

May REGISTER ACCOUNT at one shop, either aether or normal. Can they do ACCOUNT WARES and ACCOU… -
I don't think I understand why people say Hallifax is hard to navigate, actually. We have a fairly regular structure that you can learn and use to navigate. It was Serenwilde that drove me mad on navigation, simply because everything seemed to be pl…

You might get specifics from me later, but as a rule of thumb I'd say that you should err on the side of avoiding things which people can do with their skills. That'll help make sure they seem miraculous. Even if it'd be a miracle to most of the peo…

I did. The guy filled a deep fryer with whiskey and applied a lot of heat. There was a remarkably well contained fire.

Do you want to make everyone in the building hate you?
Have you always dreamed of making a whole dorm empty out into the snow?
Then you need drunk logic! With our patented blend of chemicals and general stupidity, you too can h… -
King of Dragon Pass is stealing my life from me again. If my publication rate drops, that is why.

I love it, and it needs to come straight out of Paranoia for the ranking.

(Quote) I think it's best to take most loboshigaru as being analogues to the Mongols or Huns, and the monastic ones as a specific offshoot culture. I guess under this scheme the Vassal Pack-Hallifax relationship becomes something vaguely like the…

Either make LIBRARY AUDIT PUBLISHING show your own library's books or (to keep that as just a list of things you can critique) add in a new LIBRARY AUDIT WHATEVER to look at your own publications under review.

As long as XP loss is totally gone, that's a great thing to do. I've heard that in this one it was only suspended for people who actually joined the event. Not positive if true since that's second hand, but don't do it that way if you make this a th…

I would, but letters decay and are thus a pain to keep in stock. Alternatively, give me a Gnomish Folder that preserves letters forever and give me my convenience that way.

Gnomish Tablet:
Can WRITE BOOK ON TABLET to be able to write anywhere without sitting down or using a desk. Bonus points if you can WRITE GNOMEMAIL to have it just spit on a letter on some generic design without us having to go find a let… -
War of the Arrows is amazing. Pretty sure it's only available in English with subtitles, but even with just those it was great.

I seem to remember reading that the urchins use "Nif's tits" as a general exclamation.
I've been known to use "By Cririk!" on occasion for Hallifax.

eeeeeeeeeeee
Very pleased.

Recent conversation leads me to believe that you all need to be told to watch Equilibrium. It's the best.
On that note, I'm scheduled to be drugged up to the point of uselessness in about two weeks. Please recommend martial arts movies.(Quote) It's in the to-edit pile, actually. It's not focused on this, but it does come up.
@Maligorn misleads you. Portius takes it as given that Hallifax maintains state-sponsored brothels, but not just for lower caste people and not just as a bread a…Can you get the honors for both sides of the Mucklemarsh quest, or do they replace each other?
He is accounted Voice of the Ages among literary writers.

Ok, now to seriously work out how to do stage things that involve managing people so I can get the last one in the …Not a pun on insatiable? You disappoint me.
Has to be Pythin. It has all of the traditional components, retains the first letter of my name, and since it sounds like "python" it ties into Apollonian Hallifax imagery.
I think we have to assume that the incest taboo is more or less universal in Lusternia simply because close relatives can't marry each other.

They're all equally descended from elder gods, after all.
