  1. With some inspiration from Mardi Gras, I'll be on hand with what will hopefully be a recurring presence at this and future impalongs: Auntie Sid's Traveling Dye Shoppe Very much looking forward to this... eggstravaganza!
  2. The 'ignore' mechanism built into the forum is probably the right solution for this. I have found it useful for filtering out the responses of individuals that have demonstrated time and again that they have almost nothing useful to add to a discussion.
  3. Some exciting new developments to announce here at the ol' Transmutation Hut: Better bulk pricing on transmutations - discounts now start with orders of 12. Create that nice 2x2 resource pit of clay, peat, and tar you always wanted for even less! New VIP discount for big transmutation projects - orders of 100 or more transmutations are now 50% off! Price discounts on many popular dyes - through practice, I've found more efficient ways of making many colors and can pass the savings on to you! Color catalog has been updated for 2024 - several new oranges and a few stunning blues have been added for your enjoyment! As always, a 'like' from me means 'order fulfilled' - saves wear and tear on the ol' forum thread while I spend more time at the bottom of the trusty ol' dye tub. Happy wurming one and all
  4. The only thing I wanted for Valentine's Day ... was your heart. ❤️
  5. The sheep look a little different for the Valentine's Day event... That's certainly one way to say.... "I love ewe!"
  6. I'm here with Fred the Wonder Chicken reporting on the latest rift sighting at K15 - due west of the Caldera scheduled to open ten hours from now. No easy ship access, so you'll be hoofing it in from a coast. An unusual spot, the ground is uncooperative with unrideable slopes in inconvenient places, so good luck rifters! Also, this Magranon Colossus has a chance to do the funniest thing ever:
  7. Well shoot, there goes my theory. I was wondering if some rendering simplifications were happening. Proseedda, what is the distance to that light source from that vantage point as measured through a spyglass? I'm guessing my vantage point is beyond the distance where the renderer begins to simplify things... ETA: spyglass tells me it's between 48m and 58m to each of those various spots. And I'm realizing things might be different depending on renderer settings, and even being above/below ground. I'll do more science to it and see what I find. White dye just changes the color of the light, but the nice side effect is that the human eye perceives it as 'brighter' due to the increased contrast. My understanding is that although the light source isn't actually any brighter, it just 'feels brighter' - and I use white dye on my lanterns for that reason. This will be something that I'll be testing out over the next few weeks as I have time to improve some hanging lamps and lanterns of various metals
