The pen may be mighier than the sword but the shovel is mightier than the pen.

    Holy that would be nice, but yes I afraid it might broke the game's balance xD

    The dude in youtube have the link so I looked for it, but I got this one. Eh, at 0:30 to 0:34 of this video.
    Damn that crossbow from Van Hellsing surely would help me a lot as human archer xD

    Human's NOT ELVES actually do have an archery rapid fire skill, and the elves haven't stopped beaching about it either.

    As for that movie clip, you can see the bolts are heavy and fast and hit with a lot of force, but it is ambiguous how the machine is powered such that it allows rapid fire. Yes, you see them reload, but what powers it?

    Furthermore, I'll forgo discussions of obvious lack of quivers, that arrows always seem to be knocked, and these American soldiers, running around Fallujah in modern Iraq ... sorry medieval English lords running around the Holy Land, crimony even their armour looks like flak jackets, using bows inside buildings at close quarters and not swords, GAH! I mean it looks cool but gawd.

  • Jousting Finals

    2023 Apr 23
    The final had 10 and it can be found here.

    Slow log-in problems adversely effected turn-out but we still managed a four-rounder. Before June, of last year, I would register for the tournament then quit out immediately after it began. Since then I remain in the tournament but I don't control my characters and just let them auto-joust. This is the best I can do to be fair to my opponents and everyone else in the tournament while remaining in the tournament. The advantage of my characters participating is that it allows more characters to get farther into the tournament and more points, for the jousting shop, are awarded overall. So, until now that's about, say, 46 weeks. With two characters, that's around 92 matches. If I face an NPC then I actually do try because it's better for everyone if I can beat the NPC. Well, one of my characters finally auto-won against a non-NPC! So that's around a 1% chance to beat a real person by auto-jousting. Well, I mean unless they're a newbie or just really unlucky.

  • Prettier Homestead Cherry Blossom Trees

    I only have one Cherry Blossom tree on my homestead, by design, because there is a problem with the tree model. Since, any prop can be made to face four different directions, one of the tricks we do with homesteads is plunk trees down and rotate them by different amounts so that when viewed together they look like different trees. The problem with Cherry Blossom trees is that the Cherry Blossoms, blowing off the tree into the wind, blow in the same direction relative to the individual tree, so that when you plunk and differently rotate a bunch of them, the implied direction of the wind is all over the place. So you have to choose between consistent wind direction but cookie-cutter trees, or different trees but messed up wind. It would be nice if we could rotate "the wind" and the tree separately.

  • The first-year anniversary of Erinn is coming up.

    The final merge occurred mid-April last year. An event celebrating that might be fun.

  • Community Livestream - March Update Preview

    I like the retro-futuristic/atomic punk vibe. Further thoughts:
    1) Forgetful potions offered via the Tara Auction house is fantastic news for folks that have active Hero talents; two thumbs up, =b d=
    2) There was talk about taking screen shots "on the moon", the moon has been deleted for years, so I'll be firing up my Warp Imp after maintenance; fingers crossed,
    3) The female space helmet:

    Looks like a Soviet era helmet so, if I get one, I'll dye the trim on it, red,
    4) This shot:

    reminded me of this:
    5) From a lore point of view, these:

    may spark some conversation.
