  • So, someone pointed out that there's an ancient religion mod. It even has an event based on Julian the Apostate, who was the coolest of all emperors. This appealed to my interests. It is amazing. I haven't even done Greek pagans yet. Only druids. Bu…
  • Please suggest mods or obscure starts. My general preference is for lots of little countries clustered together with a couple mediums mixed in, but I'm pretty flexible. Wales is a personal favorite, but I can only do it so often.
  • To the best of my knowledge, with the understanding that this is observation and deduction, and not accounting for bugs:

    There are five stages in the lifecycle of a book. Technically six if you count getting critiqued, but that's rare, an…
  • Would appreciate the description for the mechanical spurs from Pinky if anyone has it handy.
  • I had a hard time finding the start of the Clarramore Gardens quest because I ran into the miniquest there first. Someone had to point me to the correct start point.

    Highwater was briefly hard to figure out at the point where you have to …

    Other good options for novices who ask for quests:

    Golden Salmon-requires bashing elemental
    Estelbar and Stewartsville-basic influence/finding stuff and a logic puzzle.
    Clarramore Swans(?)-I think no combat …
  • I love that you are doing this.

    Maybe add ikons to the Fink and Gnome quests in Newton? I'm not sure if any of the sets are great fits, but it'd be a good way to introduce them to new people.

    Both sides of Mornhai should probab…
  • I saved most of the contest for your disgust and/or pleasure. There were some later entries but I didn't save them.

    The divine voice of Ianir the Anomaly reverberates powerfully, "I find Myself to be bored. As usua…
  • (Quote) Assuming I haven't gone senile:

    Spriggans spawn as part of doing Cimtri's side of the quest. Should be two at each of the halcyon trees in the first part of the ethereal area. But the quest looks really broken right now, s…
  • Not sure if I'm being blind or this just isn't documented, but are we allowed to change nouns on aethergoop skins?

  • I have so, so many questions about bardics. Like, are you planning on making bardics happen every two game years, or making prestige happen every real month? Are you keeping it as the librarian picking two entries, or changing prestige to allow anyo…
  • (Quote) There are two.

    Trill side is this: He aided the trill servants of Irshaw Heights in bringing inspiration to their masters.
    Bear side is this: He helped Piera Irshaw investigate the drugging of the tae'dae by their tril…
  • (Quote) I think this is a bigger problem. I still like them as collection items, so I do get on the rankings when I think about it in case I can get a new one. But I feel somewhat like the best gestalt and action each turn is always the same,…
  • Is the Void that the gods fled into at the end of the Elder Wars the same thing as Aetherspace?
  • A method acting monkey:

    Can assign stage roles to it like a player.

    Order monkey backstage blah to make it do that stage command.

    Please, make it practical to do plays with big casts and cut down on actor herding.
  • Current growth sort of works. I'm not sure that it works exactly as intended, but it functions. It does go up in response to books getting approved, but not always immediately after approval. I'm not sure what triggers it. I think that it's best to …

    This one depends a lot on how the mod rules lie detectors to work. If immunity works as always reading as truth, then it's great. On the other hand, if it works as "I am town" coming up as true but can ping other lies, then they…
  • In the context of gnomes being assholes, but the Gnafia being more polite and thus less assholish of the two groups. The comparison is totally apt.
  • I am outrageously pleased with this newspost, by the way. Excellent update, @Charites.

    You forgot their spelling. Definitely have to mock their excessive vowels and whatnot. It's important.

    First: This is a great update. Curios just became way less of a pain.

    Second: Is listing a single curio counted as a piece or a set for the fee?
  • Today I upgraded Ubuntu and only needed an hour to fix all the problems. I feel like I'm making progress in my panicked googling skills.
  • Lore Q&A appeals to me, especially about those things like the Nature Wars that get obscure references but not much focus. It'd also be neat to see you guys go through developing a quest or an area on camera, to see how it works.
  • Now I'm wondering if Sylandra's investigation came from her targeting Zitto, or Zitto targeting her.

    Red and black tent is identifying Zitto as fire nation pretty hard (the look like town power evidently does not protect from that.) and …
  • And essentially inevitable, since  totally kill immune Toph has very little reason not to reveal on day one, confirm herself through obvious day power, and start acting as an investigator. Which ensures that Aang knows who to target, although Toph c…
  • Huh, so there really was a nightkill immune lie detector who could more or less confirm himself as team avatar on public fluff. I assumed he was taking 'immune to firebending' as immune to all scum nightkills.

    Also, could we actually hav…
  • I believe that the Mafia is in favor of ending it.
  • Ambassador for the Mafia: We're discussing if we would like to continue or not internally. Please keep this in mind and give us time to reach a conclusion. Thank you.
  • (Quote) Mali thought it might be the First World, but I was under the impression that referred only to Prime. I might be wrong.
  • Is there a specific Lusternian term for referring to all planes, including material?
