First and foremost, the current season of Commerce is ending TOMORROW (Nov 1st). Don't be surprised if your buffs (speed, bank, etc), Huskies, Camels and Ships disappear from your mount list because you were only renting them for the season. Not sure how long seasons typically last, as we started this June 30th, I guess we'll find out. Anyway, please make sure to not buy any items that expire with the season like some items for Sayiv like the extension/expansion coupons. You'll have to get those again when the next season starts. More info in the link below.

Alright, since today is literally Halloween, the event that's ending this Thursday should be pretty obvious. We're saying farewell to the Moonlight Dreams Season 2 Event. I hope you were able to help Kristell, Brielle and Gillach throughout the event and get some nice prizes (and a good totem put together) while you were at it. You still have a few more days on this one so get those last quests done!

Balloon Festival: https://mabinogi.nexon.net/news/76634/updated-balloon-festival-returns

Alright, you guys probably saw that I put Commerce Season in the title too! That's because we're nearing the end of our very first Commerce Season (Imbolic)! The current season ends on Tuesday, November 1st! Bear in mind, after this point, all of your Seasonal Ducats will be turned into regular Ducats, so you have to start all over acquiring your riches, which should be a lot faster this time around since we're a little more familiar with the process! Make sure to trade in any Seasonal Ducats you want to with Sayiv before this season ends too! More details in the link below!

So, to those people still existent in this web space, I'm curious. How do you manage this dungeon of sporks and nightmares, and make a grinding experience easier?

Then I thought about doing this at Erinn (the name given to the world/universe within which Mabinogi is themed; not just the server-name)... then I «suddenly» realised... that the time-zones are the same everywhere. Dunbarton ? Tara ? Even if you sail/continent-warp all the way to Belvast or even further east all the way to whole entire other continent, like Iria, regardless of whether you are to its far-west at Solea or far-east like Filia or even further East, the time is still the same, the sun (and moon/s) is/are still in the same position/s (probably ?), then I was like... woah... perhaps this place might actually be flat...? O_O

I guess it is time again for yet another «fun» poll...!

1. Why is it happening? In databases you have types of objects called records. The individual pieces of information in them are called fields. A, real world, example of a record is a driver's licence. An individual instance of such a record is YOUR drivers licence. A field is, say, your first name. What do you do if you have two records that are identical but, nonetheless, are two separate instances of the record object; how do you tell them apart? They have to have a field or set of fields whose values are unique in the database. These are called Primary Keys. Your drivers licence I.D. number is it's primary key. In Mabinogi, the Primary Key was the name, of your character, pet, partner, fynni pet, and homestead, along with your server of residence: Mari, Ruairi, Tarlach, Alexina, Nao, and Erinn. So when the merges happened, Goku of Ruairi, and Goku of Tarlach, would both become Goku of Nao. To make the record unique, Nexon used the following kludge: they became Goku+Ruairi of Nao and Goku+Tarlach of Nao. They didn't include Alexina in that merge so when it was merged in, a couple three years later, after having not used the time to create a better solution, that business happened all over again. Some people didn't really care, most did.

2. What can be done to fix it? There have been several suggestions:
a. Create a Last Name field, so that first and last name must be unique. This would solve the problem but in terms of folks complaining would also just be kicking the can down the road. There can only be one Son/Goku. There's more leeway but eventually you have Sun1248/Goku. Essentially this is what we had before any merge but if we're visiting the Primary Key problem, we can do better.
b. since there's only one server then the server field is redundant. Why not hard code "Erinn" into the log-in server thus freeing up an already existing field for other use? There are two problems with this: the lesser one is that it would be a mess changing things around to turn an existing field into something else but the main problem is that there is NOT just one server left; there are two. The other is the testing server. So, the server field is not to be tampered with.
c. if a drivers licence has a unique ID number then why not make a field called, oh I don't know say, "I.D. Number" and write code to keep it unique. Why? Because they don't need to; there is already a field called record number. It starts at 1 and increments by 1 every time a new character is created and so is automatically unique. With the merge that created Nao, Nexon started with Mari, so they all kept their original record numbers. Next merged in was Ruairi, so their record numbers begin at the highest Mari record number +1, finally, Tarlach was put in at Mari+Ruairi+1. in the couple three years that Nao existed, natural-born Naowegians started incrementing at Mari+Ruairi+Tarlach+1. When the second merge happened, Alexina was merged into Nao, So all Naowegians kept their record numbers and Alexina started at Nao+1. Natural-born Erinnites began at Nao+Alexina+1. So these are already unique and will remain so until the field rolls over at 4,294,967,295.

3. How is using record number "doing better"? It allows for unlimited reuse of any name; we could all be Goku or Son Goku, if we wanted.

4. Okay, so the computer can tell different Goku's apart, how do I? By using record number. In game they could call it I.D. Number or maybe be cute and call it "Fone Number" or just use a single-character icon that looks like an old rotary telephone. Press-alt and it shows a character's Fone Number. In the chat log it gives the character's name and Fone Number. Notes sent have the character name and Fone Number. When trying to note or mail characters you just enter their Fone Number. this is just like the real world in the pre-speed-dial era. Unless, of course, they create a speed-dial feature.
