  1. I've just sent pm /tell to williamweird and awaiting response, summon. I'm sure they have a system to sacc and summon repeat.
  2. Is this the OG Tamat? if so GREAT to see you back you been missed!!
  3. @Jibberishor @MissWilc or @Alyeska but the idea to trap ping eternally @Pingpong
  4. I"m unsure what has changed yet currently the WL and BL Beams aren't rendering, they had been showing up fine just a month or so ago. Currently Only the rift Beam is visible/renders. I've even try to twist avatar camera around as i've had to do once or twice to only be visible/ show at funny angles on chaos where it's normally fine.
  5. a flash back in hip hop , evoking image of dim light doorways of beeds, hyp n henn, heals and hair extenstions
  6. you are quite right in the thinking yet i'm hoping with the creativity and motivation the dev team of today has it can be overcome. we once had a checkbox on client to have uneven borders allowing for paved tiles to have a dithering effect of grass or dirt to fuse with the tile making it look like natural overgrown onto a paved tile. I loved this feature yet it went away when they instituted corner tiles. I was told this then resulted in the rigid straight "edged" look of paved tiles as the only option. perhaps they make a new graphic for the tile "skin' where there are 5 renditions of it, 1. straight line tile has path only in the middle with the left and right sides absorbing graphic of surrounding tile. 2. a right turn tile done in same manner 3. a left turn tile done in same manner , and 4. Y or Fork tile done is same manner 5 an intersection tile. if this is possible, right and left turn tiles would almost looked curved on the pave/path portion of the tile vs right angles we have currently
  7. I'd love a wurm picture of that, maybe we get painting, glass blowing and music instrument skills to play in some future time. LOVE this pic, it'd title it "The bleak life of a fisherman friend only to solitude"
  8. yes Lorrainej had massive amt of chickens, cows, horses of all colors, and unicorns. She was in a tough spot it's sorta like a a beautiful private spot where then new neighbors moved in and a somewhat rough neighborhood grew up around her in short and she was griefed to no end to drive her out and was also unfortunately victim to one of the largest griefer horse slayings to date where someone broke into pens and slayed all her horses for fun and lulz. I think all of that and back then broken mechanics weren't addressed in the efficient expedient way they are now..that she grew fatigued of wurm failing her via mechanics or staff to protect here from nefarious malcontents out to do her anguish. I do miss her in all her flair, color and quirky as well as her great heart and love of the digital pixal animals. Warm Fuzzies your way LorraineJ!
  9. I've mentioned this before and I"m quite sure others have on a few occasions as well but i'd really rally like to see mulch paths. IRL i'm somewhat a crunch granola tree huggying hippy with birkenstocks in that i love nature and prefer to do my marathon training on old logging trails and hiking trails in national parks vs the roads. It'd be a great use for woodscraps to make a mulch path with. Now what i have in mind is not a squired right angle type box tile of mulch. I miss when we had uneven borders feature where the gravel would fade as the grass in surrounding tile took over, giving it a very natural feel, not it all looks like an edger was used even on gravel, my go to nature trail. but i'd like a more narrow graphic on the tile when smudging of mud n grass worn areas that fluidly and symbiotically mesh with the surrounding tiles, perhaps the sides are somewhat opaque to take on the nature of the surrounding tiles so that we end up with a look of a toe path , small mulch hiking path that when turning corners isn't a right turn but a gentler curve Please please make mulch paths made from woodscrap. Really where i want to go with this is make a hiking trail that circumnavigates the entire outer edge of xanadu complete with point signs, benches, sleeping huts, where players can take a soul serching journey alone or with others along the mulch path into ravines and high slopes and mnt passes with fire side picknics.
  10. -1 omg please no, i had pushed for years to have karma porting village teleporting in pvp removed along with other aweful things like the 50% dr sotg. Though i miss some things like old epic maps, other things i don't want to ever revert to again. The pendulum has swung into too much magica type sorcery in pvp as it is where priesting is almost required to pvp meaninfullly. wizardry be gone please.
  11. Adding just a lil more to this as the location was already given, i believe this was once viremental's deed, it was quite magnificent and ahead of it's time, was a massive market that meandered through undulating terrain in a very authentic feel with market stalls tucked in little nooks and clusters, while having a commanding hotel, and smith shop. This area was framed by every colossus available then and a sight to behold. just north of that yet still in the shot i believe higher up in the top center of pic would have been lorrainej's deed a very wonderful wurmian very devouted to her animals and great to chat with. I once listed to terry pratchett book on digital audio with her while we wurmed, and she tought me about I Ching, a philopshical taxonomy with use of coins and hexogram readings to help guide ethical roadmaps within. That brought me back to a great memmory. This market also had like up and down paths into tunnels you'd go, a journy in it'self deep inside the rolling foothills, was a magic place when i started playing some 7 years ago
  12. -/+ Though it may seem gargantuan of a feat to get more players, in perspective it's easier to try to work on getting more players than to then adjust /scale valrei rewards to tailor to low pop. this is coming from someone that hasn't ever done enough missions to rank in the rewards so i'm used to being left out that way. Any changes i'd phone in would be mechanical issues like if missions fail to complete with diff deity/kingdom same time fo gets shafted...things in that nature i'd rather they take time with. i can see where a light drizzling of minor frag or lumps is ok to trickle down to the rest so it doesn't seem all for naught. I do understand your pain though..it's truly an achievement to get enough people on to kill a unique so where on freedom they are a boon, on epic currently a burden so your prize feels more like booby prize. Congratz regardless.
  13. know that bright feeling when you connect back up with an old friend or the light cheery spirit of you just got a raise at work or aced midterm exam...well this song took me back to summer time of air bath on fresh soapy skin, sea salt in the hair, flipflops, coconut oil in the air mixed with taffy and the giddy playful of cotton candy surficial ...anyone else remember this one and have top down, hand outreached catching swoops of air in undulating wave pattern, with other hand center console entwined playing pinky promise affection with passenger pinky
  14. i'd like the mind logic and tool belt to queue all these actions... or, you know how like when at the beach they'll have these dance arcade machines you try with friends for lulz, i'm thinking if you could key bind all these actions it'd create some hilarious dance moves for your fingers on the keyboard in this way.
  15. i'll send my lib over tomorrow after meeting in the morning, when we get close to rite time i have other bl priests i can link
  16. chaos map interms of new suggested hota mechanics in play atm parallel to traditional hota is about as much fun as it was to do hota on current elevation map ... boring vast nothingness giving the same psychological inspiration. I'd like to see chaos kept as a legacy server to hunt and archeology on with all being a no build area and perhaps a 10c toll to enter to support it's space, and make a new pvp map for freedom cluster the size of old elevation. As to epic cluster, if not scrapping it in entirety we really really need a new map for the current map is truly banal leaving little inspiration to race across a vast surface of mean +5,-5slope change. No choke points, no challenging terrain to surmount, nor areas for fun hidey holes and cuckery. The best part of old hota chaos was the death pit and the minute prospect someone may be there for you when the terrain puts you at odds with stamina and speed.
  17. Truly wonderful work there S & S. The gleam and shine and reflection of the amors look great!!! wanted to use the word fantastic yet didn't want to confuse and have someone say well no it's only rare. Amazing work and definitely nice eye candy. Thanks to Ayes, i've been alerted to a new type of armor i'd be interested in acquiring. wtb pulsating armor, pm in game, forums or discord.
  18. So like using a buttercup flower or dandelion flower to place under someone's chin and if it glows yellow is not a good indication if they like butter? Like bacon and butter and dogs...those are good benchmarks for me to measure by. Now with that out of the way, because chaos is a highly social component under a more intense environment to wage assault on others and participate in contest or mission for goals/rewards Think about personalities and expectations. Try to assess if the personalities of a group more align with yours yet if you don't know many players in any such kingdom, measuring that can be difficult for as mentioned above using skirmishes is a poor idea due to ubiquitous use of propaganda and trolling for sport as a word base. pvp. There are small truths in those threads but mostly to those in the know on chaos already, otherwise most of it is pure trash talk giving people very little helpful information. Be sure to make your expectations clear as well, invariably people go there with an unspoken idea of how it either should go or how a kingdom should accommodate you. If this wasn't made clear up front you can be let down and have chagrin, maybe blame them when they may have not known your specific needs and were merely playing in their style unbeknownst to a conflict of suitability. So also check yourself of what you expect to get out of the experience so that is not unrealistic and chaos is blamed for an experience you mapped in your head but not out to the group you joined. So the best thing you can do is self assessment first of where you are in the game skill wise and interest and what you expect out of pvp. Doing this increases your chance of a good experience dramatically regardless of what kingdom you chose. I have found chaos to be at times far more generous and familial with massive teamwork support, yet also at times to be loaded with selfish egos where only certain people rank and matter. So though it's a tough place it is also very much supportive as well. Be aware of this going into it. Aside, I encourage you to try again, and not stack all the eggs in one basket of experience. I've had both great and not so great experiences over the years. I highly encourage all to try it at least once, much as i say of spinach. Pvp servers are the fullest expression of wurm code intent for you get to use and experience all the options all the bells and whistles. It's not for all but you can't know until you try. And Like dating, one person does not shape how others will be nor the merits of it being flawed or unflawed. Over and out from the prosaic desk of spam linguistics.
  19. Well this looks like you'll be having some fun adventured. Love your siggy line. another funny thing, you sound like player shrimpiie, it's uncanny the similarity in talk style and sound. look forward to watching your adventures. The Memorial Gardens is a great idea.
  20. ok one more from the dusty ole treasure chest goodie box... ...maybe this is the song people hear right as they rage click quit on wurm client to take a year break..
  21. now switching gears as i have a wide breadth of music interest i had bumped into two mellow classics that are feel good chillax. I hope it brings back memories for others too hearing these again.
  22. Good new find, ty for the share, I liked "paris" by $Suicideboy$ has me think i'm in muh saggers and do rag on a sofa missing the legs, spring system busted, and covered in a rough tweed covering with ciggy burns. The room rounded out with a tilted overhead lampshade with an amber lightbulb, torn resin stained shade over duct tape patched window and the smell of wet dog as the base drones on in the smoke filled room taking nips of H & H , G'd out with some pop drop n clap side show. The true funny of it all is i couldn't be more wonder bread brady bunch boy scout yet that's the fun part about gaming and imagination..i can always dream.
