Rookery.

Only one thing to do to a bad pug.... pistol finger!

Jangling as if pulled on the end of a chain or a rope. Wasn't he all wobbly and such?

I saw that one. I realized what it was about and didn't go any farther. I started to feel ill when i watched the jangly fellow.

Hiya Fedor!

/e rushes in, slaps the TURBO button on Chefbot then rushes out.

Soooo sooo busy today. :\

You all be good!

There must be some sort of emnity between fleas and puppies maybe?

:P

It's not easy being green Peterbilt.

Welcoem Wyldnytes and everyone else.

/e peels a bandage off a wing.

Had to get poked and prodded to make sure I'm healthy and suffer the continuing mantra of every doctor, "Exercise more and eat healthier."

:P

So i went and had pizza this afternoon :O

/e sets out marmalade, hookahs, and tea and proceeds to hum a little poem about cabbages and kings....

Good Morning all!

Puppy wanted to go down the rabbit hole today so I thought we might try.

Don't be late! :P

Grats GhostLotus!

I get them downloaded directly into my neural cortex along with episodes of TruTV 'World's Dumbest Criminals.'

>.>

You know.... for balance.

/e hugs the puppy.

Pogo Darth Snidley is a brilliant name! :P

But baconcheeseburgers taste sooo good!

/e turns all red.

Garsh....Hiya DP!

Grae, did you lose a bet and have to post here?

The rikti sword I can see but that poor guy in the background fell on his BAT!

That REALLY had to hurt!

Morning willnova and demoncaller!

Ok so here's my very sketchy wireframe MMO idea written in a few mins while avoiding real work. :P

I agree Neko the simple Kill Foozle, Get X doodles has got to be dressed up a bit as its getting rather stale. I understand that its easy to program but its not very engaging.

Maybe something like this?

Ixo the Fighter is created and enters the world.
He joins the fighters guild. They hand him a sword and shield and a bit of armor and after a few intro quests to become familiar with the game system they say apprenticship is ready to begin and start offering jobs for him.

To start:

Light Caravan guard duty - An overprotective merchant wants to make sure his goods make it to the nearest town.

Contracted guard duty - A tavern owner needs someone in the shop all night for protection against a threat from nearest thieves guild.

Hired out - An intown temple needs help clearing out a sub-basement level which has collapsed.

Now in and of themselves nothing too fancy with these quests. However the potential for sub quests within each is present.

Ixo choses light caravan duty and starts off with merchant train, following a dotted line ala Indiana Jones until near a river, the caravan is attacked by brigands. Ixo and the other guards are on the offensive and either kill the thieves or fail to stop them from running off with the goods.

If they succeed they continue on with no more troubles. If they failed the quests opens up and either the merchants does or does not want his merchandise back. If he does, Ixo has the opportunity to pursue them to a nearby ruined church to take on the bandits on their home grounds and get the goods back.

Either the bandits are all killed or the goods are sneaked out but either way completes the sub mission.

The merchant is happy to have his stuff back but perhaps the game notes he find an odd statue amongst the goods returned which wasn't a part of his goods. The merchants grateful lets Ixo keep it and it spawns another quest to find out what it is.

It doesn't happen all the time like this, the caravan could instead be attacked by killer bees, could run into a horrid fog bank and have to plot their way out while worrying about strange creatures in the mists, a wounded man falls before the caravan and indicates his nearby town has been beseiged by a dragon, a fey creature casts a spell on the caravan and everyone but Ixo is affected turning into a chicken spawning a mini game where Ixo has to round up all the chickens before travelling onwards.

Now say Ixo doesn't mind PVP and says he'd be happy to have pvp in his mishes well about the same time that Ixo is getting his caravan duty mish, Rolf is getting a mish from the thieves guild to pinch Ixo's merchants goods. And when Ixo's ambush triggers, Rolf is asked to join up to help with ambush. His mish could be to sneak it back to town, take it to a nearby ruined church, but he might just find while rummaging through the merchants goods, a strange statue that he will need to take back to a fence.

Now Ixo gets back home after caravan duty and fighters guild gives him his share of the cash and he gets a good rep with them. After a few more mishes of similar level, Ixo has the opportunity to handle a mission for The Scarlet Eye, the private investigatory mish which will lead to an instanced dungeon, and may open up a position in The Scarlet Eye leading to a whole other sets of mish types to chose from.

Feel free to savage .... I whole-heartedly admit its a very rough idea.

What are you pondering Capn?

Are you enjoying Sacred 2? I got the demo and the controls seemed clunky but other wise looked fun.

I didn't see it but that was a mouthful.

/e wheels out a oxygen tank

Need air?

/e takes a puff and talks in a high squeeky voice.

OOPS! HELIUM!

/e squeeky helium voice, "GET THE MY MINIONS! MUAHAH AHAH AHAHA!"

Sounds good to me Emmi although can't guarantee I'll make it all the time.


Yah BP. AION looks really pretty but I hear its got forced pvp so I'm less than enthused about that.

Oh and good mornign to everyone else who came in, Bayani, Pulcinella, NekoAli, Oh So Wicked Wendy, Fedor, and everyone else that I can't remember but welcome just the same.

/e sets out lots of pamcakes for all WITH homemade maple syrup.

I believe Justice Girls is a very active group as well as Angry Angels for your female pixels.

Paragonian Knights have a few groups that are tailored to different origins like magic or tech.

I know there are others as well but those are the first that spring to mind.

Nice concepts and names for those chars too by the way.

Good Luck!

My grandma said she used to put a little Jack Daniels on our gums to make us quiet down.

I suspect it was more she drank all the rest and just didn't notice anymore.

:P

Morning Lightslinger and Warrior Brutus!

I once saw my traffic helicopter hit my airplane in the original SimCity. Set the whole block on fire.

Oh the Simanity!


So I'd say it was pretty sophisticated. :P

Jolt makes you hyper....uhm....MORE hyper. :P

Emgro, Mountain Dew has something called Throwback that is made with sugar instead of the soul wrenching body defiling corn syrup. If you wanted to try something different.

/e cracks open the tab on one with a fschiiii.

Fschiiiiii!

I love making that noise.

and hyper puppies wake people up very early..... >.>


Good early morning all! Morning puppy and Emgro!

I bet next thing you knew you woke up in a bathtub full of icewater with a note on the shower curtain saying they had stolen your kidneys right?
