Bay 12 Games Forum

It's always fun just inteacting with each other there, as we're always teasing each other in a good natured manner and getting drunk.
We also tend to blame working poorly on sobriety.

One example, from the other night would be at the forges...

Deon: I feel as strong as an ox.
Zon: Ye smell like one, too.
Deon/Zon: *Laugh Heartily*

Of course, i saw on their forums that they think we're cute.
We probably didn't help that image when they fixed Monom's name to add a last name to him, and his mule complained about greedy dwarves not sharing the food to celebrate with. I called his mule lunch. We both drank heavily, blaming sobriety for hearing a mule speak.
The mule never did get any cookies.

Edit: Oh, Tinkering, you can make various golem types apparently.
Nothing says dwarven defence like a mechanical man beating your enemies to death!

I just hope i'm not the one who gets adopted!
I mean, they'd kill me just to stop 'my' cat having kittens and overrunning the place!

We need more dwarves!

Warriors, farmers, cooks, fishers!
Anything at all!
(just no nobles, or i'll ask Monom to install a floodgate before you can say "is that water i hear?")

Join us as dwarves!

Everyone's worryingly friendly there, so far my attempts to provoke a goblin had it seem to take a liking to me after threatening to bash Monom.

I'm clearly doing something wrong.

Food.. I've had bad experiences with shards where you have to eat every ten minutes without fail and drink every five, or you drop dead on the spot.

Well, i'm currently leaning towards a warrior or a smith. Or maybe a warrior-smith.

I'll wait for you to scout though, as a little more direction would allow for some of us to pick more helpful roles.

You know, this'll teach me to actually read the entire podst i'm quoting, as short as it was.

The shards i've seen, people just PK you for the hell of it, wait for your back to be turned, then bang, dead in one hit as they zip up, loot, leave. Pretty much a bunch of people who grief newbies. I figured 'hey, i'll keep trying' and a week later, i was still being oneshotted, and i'm pretty certain some of them used tracking to find me specifically, as i was getting killed by the same people several times when they already knew i had nothing left.

By carebear, i mean that there was no pvp on tram, outside of guild wars typically, people who were afraid to die went there. I've no objection to that kind of stuff if i have a fighting chance, but that was something i never had.

But hey, if the community can find a good place to play, i may consider joining in.

I've not had a chance to play the latest version lately, and see how much more's translated, but i'll do so soon™.

I found myself in the previous version, struggling to balance missions for platinum so i could fund my training, dungeon crawls to keep my rank high and arena battles to keep a decent rank there, too, so that the income i got from my ratings outweighed the tax i paid.

That however, is my own fault, as i kept looking for new and exciting dungeons to raid, hoping for artifacts, when i should have been running missions.

I'd say you should have him win and have that goblin assist with making the baron and baroness vanish.
