...You posted in an ideas thread. We now take that as admission that the idea is feasible. You must now have it implemented. In a week.


Well, lets say it takes a bit longer than a week. What should we put on hold to code it? Envoy reports? Aethercraft specs? New skills? Nexus worlds? New archetypes? Or maybe we should just shelve any plans for Gaudiguch and Hallifax?

Yes... thank you for shutting up the OMG LOL UR LAME HALIFACKS N GADIGUCH R NEV4R COMING BACK LOL crowd.

More like omgwtfbbqwithsomelemonade crowd. They've been camping for years now hoping the cities would return.
Shirath2006-09-08 13:12:35
I haven't been camping for years... Only 11 IC ones. Ah well... Besides Cards, wouldn't a simple pair of Dice be a great addition? I read of some artifact Ivory Dice, but haven't been able to find anything about them... Besides, Dice shouldn't be Artifacts, they should be little cubes with Holes in 'm to throw on a table and play games with *sagenod*

Ever since Neerth made that book about Cipher (Game from Gaudiguch, supposedly), I've been looking for a pair of bloody dice which can't be found anywhere! Bleh!

Um.. huh? Everything in that post there is well known to anyone who reads the forums.


Nu uh! This is the first time a god has confirmed that they have actual plans for Hallifax and Gaudiguch, and that they are already making the new archetypes, rather than just contemplating them.
Gelo2006-09-10 10:26:28
Yeah. Before this, its just speculation. We could assume that the cities could have been gobbled up by whatever, or were destroyed in the process, or got stuck in time forever. But noooo. Nooooooowwwwe!
Shirath2006-09-10 20:20:19
Ah, whatever...

Speculations... Confirmations... Ponderations... All the same!!

I can't wait 'till they get it done *sagenod*

I'm afraid you're wrong on both counts. Hallifax and Gaudiguch have always been confirmed. The new archetypes have also been confirmed by Estarra on numerous occasions. Its always been a matter of playerbase.

They are in no conceivable way similar. One sometimes succeds the other, that does not make them identical.

If you would point me to places where the points raised in Estarra's post have been confirmed, I would be only too happy to revise my views on the subject.

*facepalm*

Do you really not understand me or do you don't WANT to understand me?
By posing Speculation, Confirmation and Ponderation (not even sure if that's a real word) as the same, I attempted using it as a figure of speech to dismiss the matter and continue the actual subject of this thread;

The Deck of Cards!

So, with this, I'd like to conclude the bickering about wether it had already or not yet been confirmed and continue gathering everyone's opinion on the Card Deck and what should and what shouldn't be able to be done with them...

No, I understand you, but I lost the "stop being an infuriatingly naggy little nitpick" button on my brain. It was a natural reaction, but I knew what you meant. Hey, I can relate "Two wrongs don't make a right" to mathematics when I'm nitpicking. tongue.gif

You obviously also lost the "admit you're wrong when someone whose been around the forums for a lot longer tells you something has been said" button.

And no, i'm not going to go searching through the forums. I know you're wrong, and most other people who have been here for near two years know that you're wrong. If you don't want to admit it, it's no sweat off my brow. However, it would be if I went and searched through the forum for every mention of the word Hallifax, Gaudiguch, or archetype.

And you just aren't worth it.

You seem to be continually missing one word in my posts. Plans. Plans plans plans plans plans plans plans. Estarra has just stated that the situation is not "Oh, we'll get around to all that when we have more players", it is "Okay, what should that be, how should this look, who'll do this...?" They are actively brainstorming what will happen with the Lost Cities. They may just have come up with it at some point and thought, "Oh, I'd better note that down for later", but they are real, tangible, plans.

Now, I am going to agree with Shirath and ask that we drop this, as it's not really going to get us anywhere unless we get hits from winning little arguments.

Shiri, or someone, fix the censor.gif title if this is going to be bumped, it's infuriating.
