  • Basically, I end up feeling like a huge jerk, and yet, resentful too. I guess no one else sees it that way.
  • Sometimes I feel like I am accidentally posting in (bad) Russian... No, it is not that the wrong people might participate, it is that people who truly have zero interest in actually participating are "participating".  Some of the people we see most …
  • Hrm.  Okay.  I think we have misunderstood each other somehow.  I definitely want people to participate in shard falls, and in many ways, I am in the same boat, at least in the sense that if PK here were truly elitist, I would be excluded.  I do thi…
  • What part do you disagree with so strongly Caelya?  I mean, what would you like to see and why do you think active participation in shardfalls is so low lately?  
  • (Quote) I am so torn on this (and anything of a similar nature).  The problem is, we already have people at shard falls who really, truly, are there ONLY for the shards, and... often, not even for the shards per se, from what I've glean…
  • The wind picks up around you as the voice of Linslet reverberates, "I bet that Alekmapotamus thing does slightly less damage than Caelya."

    Hrm...

  • Ugh. Okay. I did not mean to imply that Khizan was doing anything other than stating fact... Sorry if I somehow did :( This is why sm…

  • Hrm.  I will attempt a tldr :(  Basically, cities and even sects offer meaningful enough (arguably necessary) benefits that they can be…

  • I didn't start playing my first IRE game (Achaea) until after Guilds had been changed in exactly this way (becoming Houses).  But interestingly, they continued to hold a surprising amount of sway over game life, and not necessarily in a good way.  A…

  • I'd posted similar concerns in the Remnants thread, and the only thing I'd add, that I sort of hinted at there, is that even raiding before the recent nerfs probably wouldn't be enough... especially since Antioch was probably the only org that could…

  • The worst part about it being called a "malus" as a blanket statement was the very unfortunate typos in the original help file, which made complete sense in the context of a "malus" in Remnants Comment by Jules February 2016
  • Not sure.  I've considered it... along with pooling them all in the city, which has potential benefits and pitfalls too.  The good thing about them all going to the city is, people are pretty much definitely going to be in a city if they are in an o…

  • Guilds do feel pretty vestigial right now, which I am really, really okay with.  The main reason I am ever in a guild in an IRE game is because it feeds free org credits into the game, and even if I dislike the people running my house/guild a fai…

    And this part was definitely true.  Even as someone on the ruling council, I wasn't part of the negotiations, or even privy to them, probably because really, the more people who know anything about wh…

  • I don't know Bellentine but I am more than willing to come run around with you on my terrible little RG... 
  • This event actually went as well as it possibly could have for Antioch, in terms of people (especially unartied people) not having to eat a malus at least.  So there is that.  It easily could have gone worse.  Stavenn, a city with some fighters…

  • Anette, the lag got bad maybe, a month or more so ago now? Not sure why. But it is not as frequent as you seem to be experiencing.  I recently (finally) installed a wifi range extender, and I am pleased with the results.  There is a lot of channel…

  • So, er, is Urzog going to maybe help with some Love Festival stuff?  He is a super romantic kind of guy who enjoys matchmaking, swimming in his pool, and making thoughtful gifts for the ladies he hasn't cut into pieces.  Yet.  I mean.  I would total…

  • Septus' boneyard looks the way it does because boneyards were completely new and no one knew even basic mechanics like, "do I get a notification when Jules tries to steal one of my bones and I am offline, and does it give me a name?".  The fact that…
  • I don't like having significant "real" costs for the targeted org in terms of making people spend credits to purchase guards, materials etc... I am against "real" consequences/costs of that sort almost categorically, and this is no exception (and a …

  • I sent you an e-mail.  What I will say publicly is:  if you guys do end up leaning towards making raiding something even Septus (leading some of the tankiest people in this game) can't really pull of, please, just commit and turn it off completely, …

  • Can we modify the Templar novice intro to do Devotion up to hands, Chivalry to weathering, and everything else in Weaponmastery?  That is what my circle considers optimum to start with.  Right now they are learning more Chivalry than our guys would …
  • I would, and have, several times, but if I keep a toe in Achaea at all, I need to hold onto my unbound credits at this point.  I am waiting to see whether forceboarding changes in a way that is more favorable to ship vs. ship combat (and very unfavo…
