  • I'm a little confused that guilds aren't mentioned after also seeing the below, though perhaps it's in "other".
    (Quote) I guess as I was one of the players that was doing this. My experience was I taught the newbies in my guild, in part, so tha…
  • (Quote) Personally, it seems reasonable to expect that Celest and Mag would lead to whichever org they merged into being aligned with the immanidivnius and excoroperditio respectively, which in turn lends itself to a Dynara vs Magnora dynamic. In t…
  • Obviously have stopped playing for a long while but blame facebook for deciding to drop stuff in my feed. Not necessarily really going to be reflective of the current state but felt relevance is there.
    (Quote) This is one of those convos…
  • (Quote) It might happen sure, but it seems unlikely. People would be forgoing one of the other choices to have herbs and if it were happening then the skill would become less and less valuable to have so people may as well switch to something…

    Gold isn't the only thing in the economy though, it's not even the only currency. Essence is a currency to spend on character upgrades, esteem/corpses are convertible into a currency with divine essence, and daily credits on top…
  • (Quote) I think it's kinda that everything you can do in game that's not purely creative (writing/plays/designing/etc) benefits in some way from you being a demigod or even requires it on some level. (i.e you have to be a demi to actually cla…
  • I think it's a few issues at play really.

    1. The game wants you to get to demigod, that makes you want to get to demigod, levels are an impediment in the way of you getting to that carrot. But at the same time you're being given the …

    1. Unsurprisingly, Farella, I think you already know why :D but she is an amazing war hero that had a complicated life…
  • (Quote) Just to add to these reasons, also while a ban might lessen the number of people pursuing the route it wouldn't really stop it.

    Serenwilde, for example, still gets people here and there wanting to play illithoid but the ban…
  • Any chance run_function can be updated (or has been) to return values? It can be worked around but it'd just be really nice
  • (Quote) The google calendar really trivialised all of this for me, because you just see the event in your timezone so it takes out the conversion step plus you can sync it to get reminders. Seems like it'd be pretty neat for ascension as well…
  • (Quote) 1. Yes

    2. Not sure, though my issue is more keeping them following becuase they don't auto follow after deliveries.

    3. Yep
    One by one, the petals forming Enfys dance away from their form and off to the out, …
  • Partaking in the Fruit:

    A long one, but the Listeners invite the Wilde to visit the Barrowglade, learn about the Ancestors, and gain insight into how the Listeners piece together the past. With some first-hand experience.

  • Double but w/e.

    It doesn't seem to have been mentioned but you can also do something like this by delineating between point value tasks and required tasks.
    Basically, it's just a simple rule in the Listeners... If a task is required …
  • (Quote) For accessibility, outside possibly signets, everything a guild has to offer as far as emotes and demichoices go is currently available to you from the moment you sign up to a guild with the report 285 potentially changing it. But there's a…
  • The Listener progression is somewhat of a two parter.

    An introduction stage for gr1 and 2 where you do tasks to make sure you're in the right place by going through some guild lore and setting up some basic grounding.
    The second part…
  • I'm not sure this works towards what I've seen discussed?

    Rank locked rooms/etc are possible and there's the report noted for demichoices/etc which would address that side if it goes through. But the issue with them is that they can be qu…
  • (Quote)
    Particularly in the gaming space there are also so often arguments being made that are... implausible for players to talk to.
    Last round there was a decent amount of comments along the lines of "this would take too long to…
  • Some of her ambients ^_^

    Ginger Tailsnap pauses, lifting a small item from the room and stuffing it suddenly into her mouth. Her cheek pouches out with the added volume.

    "No, no, no," Ginger Tailsnap murmurs, taking something a…
  • (Quote) With Seralem and Wake seemed like it'd be a pretty natural. The enshrouding concept came from linking to the death aspect, kind of a different funeral shroud almost that wrapped the wearer in the promise of respite and awakening that …
  • (Quote) 1. I still really like Saran's Ae epithet from Elcryion (kept it up for like 16 years) even if no one else actually knows what it means.
    2. The certain faith that Serenwilde is right and all the other nations are wrong. I don't t…
  • (Quote) More impressive than silly really but if we look at Deepnight, it is(was?) a huge city and, in the end, it's really just a matter of what scale anyone is willing to build their manse out to and how they theme things.

    But a…
  • (Quote)
    Very late and appreciating that it's just a guess, but I don't think the system necessarily achieves that goal, particularly given we've seen Deepnight heh. Instead, it feels like it more limits what is considered a home. To the …
  • Just regarding the comments about finding out motivations, there's a real difference in relevance there.

    For me, where it was relevant to find out what those motivations were it was actually done and in my, albeit limited, experience tha…
  • (Quote) Just for clarity, some isn't necessarily within the confines of the event, but more the broader picture of Serenwilde to me? The morals and ethics that inform the forest, the Sowers prophecy merged with the Listeners cautionary tales …
  • (Quote) Early on I was wondering if this event might go down a route of Celest being the villains of the story or even the communes being pit against each other mostly because it's the Sea Spirit, and it could be pretty interesting to see stories w…
  • One thing I'd love to see personally is switching things up a little and having it so that manse owners can just have commands to set the terrain of rooms in their manse and flip the indoor/outdoor switch. The relevant miniatures could then become s…
  • Oh also, the part at the end where Saran thinks, all the players were encouraged to think about the goal of the ritual and what it might look like to them. So if people would like to share I might see if I can also edit that into the log.
  • (Quote) 1. I mean it's past now, but I would have liked to be there for the sea awakening. Particular with some of the stuff coming from it.

    2. Probably obvious but relaiming the scar for Serenwilde. Ideally it wouldn't fully heal …
  • (Quote) 1. Silverfire is pretty great, it's meditative to the user but looks like a display of power. Plus calling on Lisaera to judge people is fun heh.
    2. Probably has to be softsmile, just fits Saran
