How about some Lusternia-specific ads? Stinky Achaea doesn't need any new players...

Wooo! More players means fuller cities means there is a faint glimmer of hope that the remaining orgs will be released within the next 4 years.

Unless they've let you back in under the condition that you tell no one...why do you care, o distant cousin of mine?

Because they are, in my opinion, Lusternia's last shot at r0XX0r new orgs. Oh, and I want to see Trill stop sucking. I always wanted to play one, but their stats are too not-unbalanced for my liking.

I've been helping out a number of the new players recently, and for a lot of them Lusternia is their very first mudding experience.

If I may make a few suggestions: in the tour, perhaps explain in a bit more detail how syntaxes and communications work. I've noticed a handful of newbies placing <> around all their commands, including the aetherwaves, and had to explain their purpose.

I always wanted to think Trill and Lucidian were both going to be getting a specialization for Hallifax. Mostly, because it sort of makes sense... in a weird, creepy sort of way. In the histories and from the behaviour I noticed in the mesa complex, it seemed like the two races had developed a sort of symbiosis, probably having something to do with Trillillial and Xyl being lovers.

I kind of noticed how the lucidians left a lot of the more emotional things to the Trill (i.e. war, art, among other things) and were more the deep-thinkers, philosophers and leaders themselves. I know, it probably wouldn't work that way, allowing both to specialize in the same city, but in my head I was imagining it would have Lucidian specialized with mage and guardian, but thinking about it more, that made it only one type of lucidian, and Trill had two options with mage and warrior. Not entirely fair or balanced, huh?

But I so want to see Aeromancer + Trill = DEATH. wub.gif

CODE
Trill

 o Special: Upon gaining the Aeromancy specialization a trill becomes a
   Windweaver Trill with statistics changing by -1 strength, -1 dexterity,
   and +2 intelligence. Trill warriors, upon gaining the (Whatever)
   specialization, will become Skyrender Trill, with statistics changing by
   +4 strength, +1 dexterity, +3 constitution, -3 intelligence, and +2 size.


CODE
Lucidian

 o Special: Upon gaining the (Guardian) specialization a lucidian becomes a
   Faceted Lucidian with statistics changing by -1 strength, -2 constitution,
   +4 intelligence, and -1 size. Should a Lucidian specialize in Aeromancy it
   will become a Shimmering Lucidian, with statistics changing by -1
   strength, -1 constitution, and +3 intelligence.

I'm a little nervous about the incoming influx of old ladies from that. tongue.gif

P.S. Please don't kill me if MSL is your homepage or something. I'm sure you're not old or anything...

Probably unlikely. A big reason for the creation of the Portal in the first place was to concentrate advertising costs by not having to have banners go to each game specifically, they could just be pointed to the IRE Portal where all four of the games could receive equal coverage.
Thorgal2005-09-10 07:26:02
Well, the advertising is already working, nice!

Also, Trill should get lvl1 faster balance, and Lucidian should get lvl1 faster equilibrium, that'd make both races actually useful for combat and bashing.

You guys weren't kidding about the "people who've never played a MUD before" though. wacko.gif
Ekard2005-09-10 07:57:12
Yea. it's realy works. Paladins never had so much new novices! I wonder how many of them will stay for longer?

I've always wanted to see Greg Dean (www.reallifecomics.com) do an Achaea/Iron Realms ad. Can just see Tony plotting to take over another world.. or something ShirtNinja-ish.

Looks like the guides will also be busy getting angry at some various names too...
Unknown2005-09-10 16:00:36
Stupid Paladins are getting all the novices because they're the only ones with a real normal name.

Nerf the Paladin's guild name!

Yes, nerf and. Call them Knights Templar. <3
