Hometown Balance
Erato says, 'when are you going to fix skills, abilities, ect to actually make it worth it to be from some of the lesser used hometowns? like San Fran and fist fighting?'

Erato says, 'the damage done vs the stats you give up not being able to hold use a weapon just isnt worth using fist fighting'

Apocalypse says, 'though punching a mob to death does have its own merits'

Sandra says, 'well, when we get some people that have the time to code fixes and completely rewrite the fight system'

Erato says, 'and pure fighters, have become outclassed in hitting and use by other hometowns and jobs'

Sandra says, 'eh?'

Sandra says, 'I will say tho, fist fighting, with a buncha 2nd attack items is hilariously fun'

Apocalypse nods his agreement with Sandra.

Erato nods her agreement with Sandra.

Apocalypse says to Erato, 'i think you were a bit mistaken on that fighter thing though.'

Sandra says, 'but yea, right now we just don't have the coding staff'

Apocalypse says, 'kleiners get huge ac'

Sandra nods her agreement with Apocalypse.

Sandra says, 'pure fighters do just fine, really'

Apocalypse says, 'they arent underpowered compared to other hometowns'

Apocalypse flops about helplessly.

Erato says to Sandra, 'it's wonderful, and I have a lower level who I love to watch..but once you get up to a certain level your damage out put just doesnt match up and the job becomes impossible.'

Sandra says, 'well, a fist fighter is never really meant to be the one getting hit back. But as a utility char, they're great'

Sandra says, 'ask Carnegie :P'

Carnegie snickers softly.

Sandra giggles.

Carnegie says, 'Kinda scary, actually'


Steal Command
Sana says, 'is stealing from someone illegal or just advised against or what?'

Sandra says, 'illegal'

Sana says, 'how am i supposed to fight druids if i cant steal their stupid bag!'

Sandra says, 'don't let them run?'

Sana says, 'but corpses go to hell anyways right?!'

Sana says, 'so now steal can only have a strategic use, not a harassment use'

Sana says, 'boats and bags and etc, not like you can loot anymore?'

Sandra says, 'steal and ownership need to be completely rewritten. And we don't have the manpower to do it'

Sandra says, 'so for the forseeable future, steal is illegal in pk'

Sana says, 'whats the punishment?'

Sandra says, 'I'll remove your pfile'

Sana says, 'what if im the one being stolen from!'

Sandra says, 'I'll remove their pfile :P'


3v3 Tournament
Sana says, 'is that tournament nestor posted about in june gonna happen or not enough interest?'

Sandra says, 'the arena thingie?'

Sana says, 'oh i guess i totally misread that whole thing'

Sana says, 'i saw 3 vs 3 and stopped reading'

Apocalypse says, 'that was posted last year too'

Apocalypse flops about helplessly.

Apocalypse says, 'i think we did have a 3v3 tourney though'

Sana says, 'it says 09'

Sana says, '!!!'

Apocalypse says, 'was me, sap and uh.... reaver vs sadiste, sharkbait and... cinder i think'

Apocalypse says, 'we gave 'em a jolly good kicking'

Rump says, 'say what's the situation with thermopylae? Will we be seeing it in the near future, it seemed like such a good aea.'

Sana says, 'thats not a tournament that's a drive by'

Carnegie says to Rump, 'It's still in the works, but no ETA that I'm aware of. Not sure if Nestor's in window to answer or not.'

Rump says, 'right'


New Areas
Erato says, 'is there an ETA on the next area updates/additions/ect?'

Nestor raises an eyebrow inquiringly.

Nestor says, 'ETA?'

Sandra says, 'time frame'

Erato says, 'estimated time of arrival'

Straussy says, 'Speaking for myself, I am currently trying to work with my free time to get smaller stuff into the game. But no ETAs'

Sandra says, 'I have no ETA on Alexandria. I've got school, work, home, and lots of other bugs to fix'

Nestor says, 'Ys is 80% done, which means squat as the last 20% could take years :)'


Account Aliases
Sana says, 'ok so like how do account aliases work? am i expecting the wrong thing from them? I figured i could do junk like magic sink and etc as an account alias and not waste slots on each character'

Sana says, 'but i cant seem to get it to go, but i got the regular aliases going fine'

Sana zones out.

Sana says, 'or are they for switching characters fast or something'

Carnegie says, 'I, frankly, haven't the foggiest.'

Carnegie hangs his head.

Krista comforts Carnegie.

Straussy says, 'Lorenz question!'

Scythe says, 'they're exactly the same as normal aliases. just prepend "acct" to the command that sets/unsets them'

Sana says, 'i set one up but when i enter the alias command it doesnt do the action'

Sana mutters under her breath.

Erato says, 'and he's not here, of course'

Erato giggles.

Sana says, 'oh you know'

Sana says, 'the one i did make I left chant off the start, that might explain it'


Cookbook Change
Sana says, 'who transferred the cookbook from a board to a room effect item thingy?'

Sandra says, 'Autumn'


Item Limit In Housing
Scythe says, 'any particular good reason why individual house rooms cant have many items within bags?'

Sandra says, 'it still counts each individual item. so there's a limit of 50'

Sana says, 'all rooms have an item limit bag or not!'

Scythe says, 'i did say a "good" reason =p'

Sana says, 'hah i should be an imm'

Sandra says, 'good or not, it's the only one ;)'

Scythe says, 'from a flavor perspective, it's odd to me that i can carry a bag, but not be able to drop in a room'

Scythe says, 'any hope of getting that changed?'

Sandra says to Scythe, 'Not really. At least not in the short term.'

Scythe says to Sandra, 'you just dont want me to have all these strings!'

Sandra says, 'hoarder!'

Scythe says, 'damn straight'


Note Limits
Sana says, 'would it be possible to raise the 20 note limit per character? Cuz at least for me legend is 90% Q.Qing over old memories, and sana's memories are all full, i have to make a stupid homuncules every time i get mail'

Krista says, 'Oh yeah, I so agree'

Sana says, 'I started sending my mail to an alt and im waiting to get deleted for multiplay for it'

Sandra says, 'I don't remember why we put the limit on, to be honest. I'll have to check into it'

Xuvenia says to Sandra, 'Probably because people were carrying around hundreds of notes?'

Sandra says, 'probably'

Krista says, 'Why is paper so heavy anyhow?'

Scythe says, 'anything that makes pfiles larger and causes saving to lag more doesnt get my vote'

Sig flourishes grandly.

Sandra nods her agreement with Scythe.


3v3 Tourney Continued
aja says, 'did any one ask the question about the 3v3 pk that was being worked on?'

Sana says, 'hah! i told you it said 09'

Krista says, 'Ooo if so, I missed it'

Carnegie says, 'Posted On: Monday, April 21 2008, 12:05PM'

Carnegie says, 'The 09 in the board is from last reply'

Caja says, 'i recently saw a question about it'

Xuvenia says, 'yea, sana asked if he missed it'

Krista says, 'Aw lets just do it anyhow?'

Sana says, 'so i guess it's my fault for posting a reply'

Sana says, 'i thought it was funny that the day i came back to legend nestor made that post'

Carnegie says, 'Not saying no to future tourneys. Just saying that one isn't exactly relevant'

Carnegie says, 'We don't have one scheduled for the immediate future though.'

Nestor says, '3vs3 tourney means we need at least 9 guys in, not sure we have that'
