Can I come?

I'll even guard Kaln.

Dec 28th is a Thursday, not Friday. Did you mean Fri?

Previous post edited again ... I'm out :(

Jhorr

Just curious ... I'll definitely still playing. Just wonder what the forecast will be for our pbase.

Jhorr

Doh! Out of town company is coming again. Count me out, again :(

Jhorr

Did anyone hook up? :)

Adios a uno amigo verdadero de Toril....

Congratulations on your decision.

Warmest regards,
Jhorr (Toraza, etc.)

Anchors away! Tally-ho! Shiver me timbers! And all that stuff....

Don't forget your parrot.

Cheers, matey!

I like the idea of making the low end game more involved. I hope incorporating Feats in 2.0 will result in lowbie quests that require group play to achieve. In addition, adding quests to achieve certain levels could add a group play requirement to the low end game. Of course, the Achilles' heal to t...

Another Torilite comin through! Congrats!

Vikaz' idea might work. Take her hard drive out of her computer and configure it as a slave drive in another computer. When you boot up, go directly into the motherboard BIOS and look to see if her hard disk shows up. If so, continue to boot from the master (original) hard drive. When Windows appear...

If there were some way to SAVE the zone, I wouldn't care if the zone took 3 weeks. But, since we're limited to a single sitting I think 10-12 is the most I could ever do these days. Maybe 14-16 if I had the entire weekend off and my wife was out of town.

As a follow-up to Adriorn's poll, let's see how much do Toril players work and/or go to school per week. Understanding our audience might help tweaking the game to accomodate our lifestyles.

I agree with Gormal. DikuMUD is to graphical MMORPGs as Linux is to Microsoft. Think about it, there are many parallels: free admission, volunteer coders, not as user-friendly as a graphical interface, etc. For me, this MUD endorses the original philosophy of the Internet itself, as Linux does, rath...

Excellent, Smithers ... Exxxxcellent!

In an effort to help new players roll effective characters and increase their enjoyment of the game, I've created a thread on the New Player Help section. Please feel free to respond and expand this thread with your experience, opinions, and tips. http://www.torilmud.dyndns.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?...

Basic Tips: (1) Spending time rolling a character with good stats will increase your enjoyment of the game, since it will be a more powerful character. While you can roll a decent, playable character for most classes quite readily, be prepared to spend on the order of hours to roll a character with ...

Interesting results... This shows that the current Summer dropoff in MUD attendance isn't due to Summer vacation from college as it used to be. I suspect instead that people are taking vacations with family. Or, maybe their computers are aging as well and, now that family expenses have hit, they sim...

You just need to play an elf with 120 int.

I have an idea: Multiplay Mondays. Let us multilplay on Mondays (or some other day of the week) and compare MUD activity on that day with the other days of the week. I'd bet you see more stuff being done. It is true that activity generally slows in the summertime. This has happened every year since ...

Jhorr

Well, Inama proved manscorpion hive could be solo'd given enough time. Multi would just cut down the time required. So, what's the difference? Our player pool is more distilled now and the players that remain are in general terms more expert than before. If we could multi, we wouldn't have to abort ...

Jhorr

Marthammor,

Thanks for your interest and hard work.

Jhorr

Jhorr

Was really fun! We should do this more often and watch our numbers grow.

Frankly I'm not entirely sure I understand why multiplaying is illegal. The more chars one logs on, the higher is the risk of dying. If we offered multiplay routinely, I wonder if it would attract new players.

Jhorr

Neat.

Thanks!

Jhorr

No reason that cleric should have died unless they were wearing no EQ, had like 300 hps (and got crit'd to the max) in which case they deserve to die, especially if they are blaming someone else for his/her death due to their own stupidity and bad luck. At the very least s/he could have worded. It's...

Hamit group-says 'ross yer thingy charged yet?'

Jhorr

Why they would infect their youth with that crap is beyond me.

Of all Western culture to import, Disney is truly lowest common denominator.

Turji's the flaming holy flamberge of the effreeti is engulfed by flames as fire streaks out at Tiamat.

haha now that's old school

Jhorr

Doh nevermind, turns out my friend isn't interested after all...

Jhorr

Hey I have a friend who's interested ...

Jhorr

I'd like to thank Sarell for leading this and keeping us focused on what was a 17 hour trip. Nice job.

I'd also like to thank Eilistraee for helping us at the end.

Jhorr

Downgrade Gura. *nod me*

Jhorr

I like the class-specific EQ <worn on back> idea too.

*Cheers*

I leased a new 2004 BMW and I love it. My rationale? I wanted it and it's a dream to drive. Also, I wanted to buy a new car but I could only afford 1/2 a car. So I leased it with the thought that in 3 years I'd buy my own used BMW with my own driving history (accident-free, 750 miles per month or 75...

Jhorr

Damn, that was funny.

Except you can't turn a rhyme worth a goat.

My wife was like 'I'm outta here'.

Jhorr

For the price of 1 month of WOW, I could buy 3 tekka maki's .... UMMMM!

Jhorr

I rest my case.

Jhorr

Sorry I couldn't run this. I still have no internet at my new home.

Thanks again Yas for taking over. How did it go?

Cheers.

Jhorr

That was fun, we should do it more often especially since the pbase is down.

The only bad part was when we jumped the gun on yan-c-bin and I fled only 1 of my chars thinking I was safe only to see my poor cleric bite the dust in my other window. hahaha!!

Jhorr

What's a skill rogue

Sounds like mercenaries for hire....

Jhorr

And that is why bidding systems have to be made to ensure that only those with seniority get the gear, because lesser players have no right to it until they have proven themselves by completely mastering the "low end" game. The way it usually works out is that new players tend to do those "lesser" ...

Jhorr

Thrash landing? Bahahahaha...

Jhorr

That's a neat idea. Would be cool if it would check if your buddies alt char(s) too.

Jhorr

Hot damn, I'm gonna solo Hulburg. Sorry guys, group is closed.

Jhorr

It didn't take long for me to realize that if you hang around long enough in this game you'll get whatever EQ you want regardless of the bidding system, as long as it isn't grossly unfair. Therefore, the best reward in this game is achieving success at leading zones since there is no EQ without a le...

Jhorr

*bump*

Still some slots left but going fast. Sign up if you're interested.

Jhorr

In Tiamat, it's not clear what EQ loads until the end. So, how would someone who left early know what to bid on? Perhaps the following choice should be available to those who leave early: (1) keep your points earned and don't bid, or (2) spend your points on a non-first round bid of the leader's dis...
