  • Does @Maylea ever sleep? Or does she always wait around on-call 24/7, so she can continue to correct typos and other minor errors within minutes?
  • (Quote) Good practice for that future game-wide Fate tournament you're totally gonna do, right?  o:)

    That pleasant, earthy smell that comes with rainfall, especially after a period of drought.
  • Even in way more super intensive RP games, OOC remains necessary. Perhaps paradoxically, the more intense the RP gets the more it fundamentally relies on OOC communication.

    Some of the best RP sessions I've ever had (in text games) were …
  • I just went to Glom for reasons that had nothing to do with treachery, backstabbery, deals in the dark, nor any of my other usual shenanigans.

    And it was good. in Lack of Raves VI: Rave Today, Tweet Tomorrow Comment by Riluna September 2017
  • (Quote) Except IRL if doctors can't figure something out they tend to outright dismiss stuff as being all in your head, rather than obsess about the mysterious puzzle you are. Never be afraid to seek out a second, third, or fourth opinion.
  • That's easier said than done, Minkahmet. Over the past couple years, I've definitely gotten the sense that IRE has all but given up on recruiting new people. It really seems more about milking the few who stay for as much as they can.

    Nu…
  • (Quote) Which is not mutually exclusive to the point that there were valid reasons people didn't feel invested enough to invest.
  • TIL rogues can still do org power quests. Neat!
  • India was a fun ride, even if it is perhaps a bit too easy.

    From a Rashtrakuta start, all of the Deccan Empire is easily consumed within a generation or two. I then had a choice marriage where my Punjabi wifey lived miles and miles away, …
  • Now I have a new forum to lurk! And consider contributing, but scarcely actually do.

    Pretty stoked about it, actually. Now I can see what all the fuss is about these stars, and why people mourn them so much!
  • (Quote) I was one of them, once. Interested, but overwhelmed. Wanting to get into the game, but not really being able to.
  • Right. Still catching up, lol.
  • There's a few mini quests scattered throughout the orgs that aren't real clearly connected with anything, and don't give much reward.

    A couple specific examples I have in Seren (just cause that's what I'm most familiar with) would be gat…
  • (Quote) With the added psychological benefit of "Yes! I have a discount!" starkly visual right there on the prices. I forget sometimes what shops it's active for me at.
  • (Quote)
    It definitely is complicated, lol. But the way it comes together is very much like a sort of literary orchestra. The end result is amazing!

    And speaking of endings, the final book is being released in about two weeks.…
  •    A letter was recently sent to you by way of a owl! Expect it soon! This message sponsored by the

    I. Love. This. So many QoL improvements since I last peeked in. I can't count the number of times …
  • (Quote) You'll be missed. :)
  • Pity, I feel like that should really be a thing, but I also wouldn't want to wish that project on anybody.
  • Tailors, do we have any way to view prestige/warmth levels before actually making an item?
  • I love this idea. I'm just curious what happens if I list something I'm willing to buy, and in forgetting I did that accidentally spend the credits somewhere else.

    It doesn't seem like my credits have been set aside in some kind of escro…

  • (Quote) I don't think it's worth getting worked up about. Honestly I get amused when I discover a string of revenge disagrees, especially if it's just caused by a bit of saltiness from an unrelated discussion.

    Forum flags themselve…
  • Somebody went and exploded all my guilds when I wasn't looking.

    I'm not exactly clear where we're supposed to go to sign up for the new faction thingamajigs. Enlighten me?
  • I am no longer a vulnerable adult! Legally, anyway.

    Spending so much time in hospitals and inpatient facilities was most definitely not how I imagined my thirties would go. But I'm out again, at least for as long as I can keep going on be…
  • I'm surrounded by people, but I'm still alone.
  • I just spent a couple weeks in the hospital. I have another visit coming.

    I have commitments here I cannot fulfill at this time. I will when I can.
  • If a current Elder were to splinter into shards again for whatever reason, do they become a new race instantly, or something that eventually happens over time?
  • (Quote) I've been inviting the third or fourth person on their line of succession. If all of them like their liege too much, I murder the head of state until they like me better. Give that guy a piece of land (so he's an actual vassal, not ju…
  • Thanks, @Yomoigu! Mind a follow up or two?

    (Quote) Is point 1 massive enough to be a priority over the constant bribes/feasts/hunts/etc. to keep…
  • (Quote) Pretty much anybody from the opposing alliance. Because inter-org RPs are hard, but awesome. And it's fairly rare for people to feel comfortable interacting with somebody that they disagree with.

    I just enjoy being frenemie…
