Thanuk - you've made a presumption here.

Auril

Chaos is a time outside time. Nothing that happens then affects you long-term.

Consider it an interesting dream...

Auril

There will be two different events.

On December 25, the RP-Quest sphere will host a scavenger hunt. And on December 26th, Chaos Christmas will reign.

Look forward to seeing you there. :)

What inspired you to shape your character concept? Did you read of a character in a novel, or watch one in film, who stirred your imagination? Did you research your race and/or class, and choose to go with the stereotype or someone completely different? Was it based on your gear, or someone to fit i...

I like Eudora. No one makes email viruses for it.

Auril

Not sure if this helps, but I think the C=C bond is flat. It can't rotate, and is fixed in place, making the other links somewhat fixed as well.

Auril

Due to the equipment changes, some previously restrung items have changed significantly. With this in mind, we will be shifting restrings under the following guidelines: 1) It cannot be a charged item, such as a wand, staff or potion, or food. 2) The string will stay in the same item slot, i.e. if y...

The objective for RP rewards is to make a character more individual, more unique, and a bit special. To enhance what's already there, for the most part. It is important to remember that the gods on this mud work as a team. Although we're divided into spheres, we talk together about what we're doing,...

Well, I'm glad no one was upset when I burst into loud laughter over this...

What a cutie. :)

Remember to bring sturdy boots and your nice clothes.

That's 9 p.m. Eastern, btw.

Auril

What, you don't like that your horses were revamped?

Auril

You're right, I did not host any of those sessions, nor was I involved in the operation of them. None of the quests I have handled seemed chaotic to me, and none of the participants mentioned an inability to get a word in edgewise during any of the sessions I have run. I am sorry that you have had a...

Auril

Marforp, When I go looking for roleplayers, I check out who's got RP on. I spend a few minutes looking at what they're doing, what's going on around them, and come up with something to try to catch their attention. I give them a few minutes to notice, then move on. I need to focus on those with RP o...

Auril

Ask the lvl 17 Necromancer if he did something that was too big for him today... A lot of things are aimed for higher level people. When a disproportionate number of players are high level, unfortunately you get a similar percentage of (RP) up there too. We're trying to give everyone a chance and we...

Auril

I have a comment to add. While we're not going to dictate how you should roleplay, we do expect to see something other than the actions required for combat. Memorizing or praying for spells, bashing or kicking your prey, healing wounded party members or delivering damage to your target is not suffic...

Auril

Eilistraee and I will continue to run the campaign after the mud split, and we will be transferring with Shevarash and Cyric. We have not and will not go back against this decision. We do not know what Malar will be doing, aside from changing his mind to join Miax's mud - it is entirely possible tha...

Auril

Dark wrath.

Auril

Getting told "Thank you" every now and then.

Completing a big project of my choosing and having another one already planned - or even begun, waiting for me.

My family.

Auril

I liked that a lot.

Auril

Fruit flies. They mess up my wine-making.

Auril

There's a lot of talk about gods these days - who do you follow? When you say your prayers, who do you hope hears them - and who do you fear has heard them instead?

Come, give us more tools to use against you, dear pawns...

Auril

That's too bad, Kurtok. I always thought trolls would be cunning. They did manage to form their own society, unlike squirrels; and while they don't seem to do a lot in the way of higher math and physics, they're quick, capable of using many tools, etc. Ogres have a city too, even if there are appare...

Auril

"Does the RP-Q staff log on and look for those people then again? Yes. YES!" I'm sorry to refute you, Shar, but the truth of the matter is that when I can, I go through the list of everyone with RP on (unless they're in a zone), follow them, try to catch their attention, and if they react I run with...

Auril

Hey, when I saw someone issuing guidelines for how I should run quests, I got defensive too. I'd have rather seen something saying that not all RP will require zone groups, instead of You do not need a zone group to RP.

Too much yelling going on.

Auril

What specifically are you looking for in RP? Anything I can use. If you want to be insane, sure. If you want to claim to be the brother of the banker, you might end up going to supper with him sometime - but you had better be ready to follow through with it or tell him sorry but you have a prior eng...

Auril

You know what? I give up on this thread. Either that, or I give up on you. There are some damned good points in here, and a lot of garbage. Probably the worst of it all is taking one sample, one person, one event, and deciding that the one thing accurately describes everything else. When you choose ...

Auril

A thought about 'fairness.' People can get some really neat, nearly-unique gear by being among the best for zones and having a lot of exp so they can go get it. If they want prettier or more interesting things, people can write zones to set ansi however they want, and allow others to lead them or sa...

Auril

Let me add my voice in support to those from my sphere. Unless you are in the sphere, you will most likely not know the full extent of the changes we have endured. Most gods don't know. And I'm not about to inform you of everything that has changed - a good portion of it was problem-resolution, and ...

Auril

That's what she calls it. Who am I to argue?

Auril

Will miss you... Good luck.

Auril

What do you do when you're not botting? You talk. What keeps people coming back, why is Sojourn considered home to so many? The people. What happens if no one talks to anyone else because they're just bots? People leave, new people don't bother coming back. Why is our player base not as high as it o...

Auril

Glad you weren't on the highway where the crane came down.

Auril

It is a hard balance between giving enough clues and being too subtle. No one gets to be spoonfed. We're not shouting across the heavens as often, because that's not very role-play focused. We're learning the balance. Those who notice sooner will get in on things sooner, but we are working at it.

Auril

While participating in a god-run quest, please remember a few things. The mobs in the quest will be operated by no more than a few human beings sitting at computers, much the way you are operating your character. It is more beneficial to ask questions than to "ask <mob> <word>" and expect a rapid re...

Auril

I'm glad you showed up for the last one. I'd spent fifteen hours setting it up. Good thing I let people know it was going to happen.

When I have an income doing this sort of thing, I'll be glad to run a quest every week. Since that can't happen, do you still want to say leave out all restrings?

Auril

That sounds like a very poor echo of the threefold law...

What goes around comes around, she's in for a nasty surprise some day.

Auril

A challenge:

Choose a date and time, and see how many evils you can get on at once. Make sure you advertise.

Auril

All I can say is I'm impressed that you were willing to consider a different view, Llaaldara. It's rare.

What is the most beautiful place, on the mud or off, that you've seen?

What time do you plan to have your ceremony?

Auril

I'm glad to see times for when evils tend to play. It makes my job easier - and will probably make yours easier too. This was a great idea. Not only will your regular people have a clearer idea of who leads what when, the goodrace players who have the ability and courage to play evilraces will have ...

Auril

And if nothing else, it would add to your roleplay and give me something else to work with.

Be wary of the dreams you see in the smoke wraiths...

Auril

After the evilraces were unable to take up the quest, a party of goodraces arrived to deal with the threat to Conquered Village. In general, they did a very good job dealing with the opponents Malar presented to them - only the final battle needed a little tweaking. http://www.sojourn3.org/ubb/smile...
