You guys can take Darkspell: Shattered Legacies off the list as well. Also, 2 lines is a good idea

Topic: Forum Games / [Game Related] The Update and Announcement Thread!

Announcement: The next Darkspell game will be coming soon! I’m looking for an apprentice to help out and learn the trade, if anybody is interested. Please PM me for details.

Update: I’ve only seen 2 people (including myself) still using Darian’s Wulves. D:

Now do you get what I mean by saying “When people change their avatars, it seems to me as if they are a different person” ?

WHO ARE YOU?!

Oh god no.

So anyway, apprenticeships will probably end up crappy, since people will only “adopt” the cute, nice, intelligent little critters that would do well in the forum anyway. Nobody is going to take in the weird kid in as an apprentice, which makes it kind of useless.

And when we run out of those, that’s when the weird kids come in.

Also, the generations are general waves… I came here about 2 years ago, so I think I’m a second gen… a lot of us died out. 1st gens are generally people who were here during or right after the OT days, and third gens are the most recent, as new players have dried up a bit.

Speaking of apprenticeships, I’ma talk to my co-hosts about having one on the next Darkspell, after the mechanics are done.

kk I am gonna use this system from now on:

2 sub-warnings = 1 warning
2 warnings = 1 one-time ban
2 one-time bans = 1 two-time ban
2 two-times bans = 1 three-time ban
2 three-time bans = 1 half a year ban
2 half a year bans = 1 permanent ban

You will be given sub-warnings for offenses like ninja’ing me in a thread between my reserved posts, and other things like that. You will need the equivalent of 64 sub-warning to get a perma ban from my games, thus, you will only receive a perma when you’ve done something wrong a ton of times. This is a system I am going to probably keep until the end of my time on FGF. Thanks.

Time to get idiotic on Jask’s games.

Party time!

I do not support this apprenticeship idea. On first glance, it may seem nice and all, but, every mistake they make will not be blamed on them, it will only ruin a perfectly well made game, I’d rather have them play the game first, and if they’re doing good enough, and have a well understanding of the rules and other things, I would then make them my co-host so they too, could realize how hosting a game is before actually doing it, so their games could be better, the case is different in mafias, I’d rather make them play a couple mafias first before having them co-host, apprenticeship to first-timers will only ruin FGF. However, if your basic idea was to say what I just said, then I agree.

Then don’t allow apprentices on your games if you make any.

EDIT: If you guys would like, I can make a thread for people offering apprentice spots, or maybe the Masterthread can track them if theres enough support.

Topic: Forum Games / Master FGF Thread

Not sure if anybody’s still talking about this, but for the current MFGF thread, I think people running continuous games should still need to ask for approval for a second game. Even if we did stomp out the loophole of making ANOTHER continuous game, it would still encourage continuous games, which, while fun, generate a lot of spam and push other games to the bottom.

As another solution, we COULD have one public profile for continuous games… the Editor profile could even do this. They would, with permission, remake continuous game threads and credit the original user (It would essentially be his without taking a game slot.) and people could request continuous games. It could work on a rotational slot basis, depending on what people want, and how many requests there are. This would help to regulate said games, and allow people with an idea for a continuous game to still run an RP.

Of course, people can still make continuous games if they want, but a lot of people will probably go with the MFGF-hosted ones. Input?

Also, new topic to add to the que:

There have been many malicious people in FGF, trying to bring it down, and the number of integral or skilled people is drying up.

We need to do SOMETHING to keep it running, because one day, a whole new set of players will be here, and we need to be able to make sure THEY can learn.

So, we need something… the FGenaissance, or something. We need to actively teach newcomers how to treat fellow FGF members, and how to host games, and tutorials on the MFGF thread just WON’T DO IT!

We need to go deeper than words. We need to go into games themselves to teach, with action, outreach to newcomers and teach them how to act. Why not set up apprenticeships, let a newcomer co-host your game? (Every screw up they make is a learning experience, after all.)

This is a major problem, because if we, some of the original and second generation of FGF, don’t help our third-gens out, then FGF WILL DIE. So we need to outreach, support growth, and teach people how to play the way things were meant to be played.

And sure, every new group, player, and generation will bring new ideas, new twists, but there are still core values and rules, and newcomers need to learn different playstyles, different hoststyles, and, most importatnly, how to teach these things to the NEXT generation.

So, tell your friends, cousins, even random people in chat to join FGF if they seem nice enough. Because we need people to support us, and we need to teach newcomers how to FGF. And when one learns, they can teach more.

Well, things have been going slow. I’ve given BC and BS a bit of time to put in their input without my moderation, but that hasn’t happened.

But, for everyone who’s in a country that celebrates it, Happy Thanksgiving! I’ll be going somewhere, then to my weekend place early, so this will be my last post for a while.

P.S. It was also my birthday on the 17th. Blame Halo 4 for my inactivity.

Of course I am. If Developous’s mother dies, the only thing that keeps me from viciously mocking him is the fear that doing so may earn the ire of others in this community. I’d take delight in any chance to actually get through his thick skull and hurt him.

I really doubt you know anything about me, as we haven’t had any sort of interaction until recently.

Because there is apparently at least one person here in FGF who will stab you with a knife in real life if you don’t agree with him.

The community is only as nice as its meanest member. I’ve seen two newcomers trying to introduce themselves in this thread, both of which got harassed and told to leave.

That’s just awful. I we must address this. TO THE FGF COUNCIL!

Hey guys! Darkspell is going through some change and stuff right now, so anybody who has ideas about magic and stuff (Even if you’ve never even HEARD of Darkspell), it would be great if you would comment on your ideas here! Thanks!

Back from my weekend. Time to get back to work, but I have AC, Halo 4, this, and a book report competing for time, so I might be a bit slow.

“Shit…”.
I begin to run up the cliff path to the city gate.
“Run! Run! We cannot face this scourge! You must go first, I can catch up to you! Just go!”.

[But I personally like Minn, and perhaps they both changed after that.]

[See above point for 2]

[True]

Roslang
“Well then, this city’s gate that we leave through is on a cliff…”
I run through the gate, with Annelise’s horse following me of it’s own accord. I jump off, and land safely on the ground about 40 ft below.
“And that, my friend, is one of my abilities!”
(We’ll present ourselves with the choice to fight the horde or free the slaves.)

(Not at all. Just do it in about 4 hours, if you wouldn’t mind, I have a fundraiser to go to with my difficulttoobtanium golf club.)

Roslang
“The farmer I obtained this from walked away richer than he has ever been. A little gold goes a long way to multiplying farming produce.”.
I look into Annelise’s eyes. “Do not think it makes you any weaker to be afraid. We all fear things, and bravery is not to be without fear. It is to do thing even though you are afraid to do it. Now, shall we be off?”.

I try not to have such, but most would scream how hard is is to change me.

… let’s hope I am not put into one of my more nefarious situations where I want to but cannot change.

Dev, let me reason with you as simply as humanly possible.

1. You obviously have a problem with the laws here. It is your intent not to be affected by them. It is our intent to keep the laws. Therefore, the only path to keep both our intents is for you to leave.

2. Your abuse of the laws makes them affect you more. It is your intent to make RP’s, and it is our intent for you to answer for your lawbreaking. You cannot make games for about 2 months now, so the best way for both of our intents to prevail is for you to leave and go to another FGF.

3. It is your intent for what you believe to be absolute truths to be followed. It is our intent that what the community has deemed absolute truths, which oppose yours, are followed. As thus, the only way for both our truths to be absolute is for you to leave.

Roslang
“I grant this title not to myself. It was given to me due to Poniar, Pheonix of Terina, Duvana of Roslang. He is what gives me much of my power, and my fire is strong because of it. My lightning, however, was at birth. As for resting, I was serious about carrying you. I did not choose to have my food in Alberon due to taste. Alberon has a fantastic property of preservation. What I have ordered will outlast our dead bodies should we fail.”.
I get up, my cape bellowing about me with my speed.
“We leave when you are finished. I shall be outside, and we shall choose your mode of travel… although I may have a solution to travel that will not fatigue me.”.

I leave the bar, and step onto the streets. The evening throng of people leaving for the long road ahead is scarce. I spot a man on a black charger, with tattered clothes, and his head held high. I approach him, and hail for his horse to stop.
“Eh? Well, dear boy, what business do you have with a poor old farmer like me?”.
I draw one of my swords, noticing his right hand reaching downward.
“I advise you do not cross swords with me, as I do not intend ill to come of you tonight. However, I offer you my cape, and 20 golden coins for your horse. He will be used for a good cause.”.
“And what, my dear boy, is that cause, if I am not out of place asking?”.
I look around to make sure no Empire guards are near before speaking. “I intend to free the slaves of the Convoy of Berian, and my partner cannot match pace with me without a horse.”.
The man dismounts, and I hand him 20 gold coins. I begin to remove my cape, but he stops me.
“Any man who will face Berian Grimsabre should not need to pay for a horse with the clothes off his back. That cape is a part of you, son, and nobody should go into battle without some card of call.”.
“Thank you, sir. I, Roslang Freewalker, am in your debt.”.
The man begins to walk toward the gate. “Your debt must only be repaid by wishing me well on the road. Fare the well, Freewalker! May the Pheonix speed your travels!”.

“He already has,” I say to myself, as I hitch the horse outside the tavern. A midnight black charger, one worthy of my pace. “I name thee Darkflame.”.

And stupid where I stand. They cannot even accept a CLEAR example why the rule is abusive in the first place. The INTENT matters in the fist place with this situation – BUT NO: you JUST make excuses and refuse to see the truth in the matter.

I defied BECAUSE the law is too abusive. Who cares about YOUR sense of enjoyment, let alone quality over quantity. My actions speak for themselves. You would do anything for the sake of QUALITY…. even if it destroys enjoyment in the first place. Your definitely the fools here where I stand.

Boy was I wrong about coming back – you haven’t learned a thing. Infact, I suspect you dont even care.
Soo… here comes that game again. INTENTIONALLY defying the law. Condemn me for all I care, but know that all your efforts to change me are in vain thus far, and punishment will only make me even more an enemy of your beliefs – where it matters the most.

Dev, you’re deluding yourself. If you don’t enjoy thing here, just leave, because the rest of us do, which is why we’re still here. The rule will not be repealed.

“Well then, glad to have you on my side.”.
I take her gold from the counter, and replace it with my own.
“Alberon, on me.” I hand the woman back her gold.
“My name is Roslang Freewalker, protector of the impoverished and defender of freedoms. Would you prefer we travel together, or shall I depart? I have certain… talents that make travel faster. What would take both of us a day and a half would take me about half a day. Or, of course, I can always carry you, but you may have a heart attack from what I do.”.

If by “considerably less fun” you mean “considerably less exploitable”, then yes, I suppose things do become considerably less fun when I reach them.]

By making and documenting mechanics that destroy these loopholes, we don’t need to deal with them later.

[Why don’t you just ban Minnakht instead of this]

[He’s the problem anyway, and he’s not likely to play given the new mechanics and his Darkspell history]

Knoob, you have a really bad habit of assuming the worst of people. These new mechanics will be put up to the public before we launch, and they can post their argument on it.
