Gaudiguch has done a better job of retaining players. That should answer it for you!



Well, a good chunk of that might be the fact that you can actually find your way in Gaudiguch without feeling like your head is going to explode.


I'm sure someday I'll figure out how to get around that place, but right now, I honestly can't go anywhere without using CHELP MAP and even then it's hit or miss. I don't even know how to get out of the city without using newbie portals. I think I'm going to cry when I lose them. laugh.gif

Gaudiguch also is the summer home of the drama llama. Pros and cons, man, pros and cons.

That's okay, I still haven't been able to figure it out either. I 'teleport nexus' within the city to find my way back.

And I just realized that Hallifax guardians don't have any ents (I don't consider the gems to be ents) =( When Continuum was released I thought having a pet icosahedron was going to be meh but now I really want one!

The drama llama is proof that people care about the city and its future!

It's a pretty cool guy if you're not the center of its attention.

Woot at correct usage of it's and its.

But Illuminati are...ugleh...although it has a damn nice set of utility-ish skills.

Then again, Researchers are mobile models of the gem solar system...fair trade!

Peculiar then that I've yet to see anyone quit the Institute. I must say that we've done a very good job in quickly establishing a guild advancement setup. It's not done yet, but you have something to work towards.

Not Institute. Illuminati. luvati or whatever is 200gp in the guild shop. Which hurts. So its 400 to even get my first real transformation up.

I'm going to help hammer the prices out to make them not so restrictive to def up every login or death, but I think the control we've established over the fleshpots is not only acceptable but outright required.

I'm not complaining about the control. Don't get me wrong. If it wasn't there then it would be a mad house. Its just that 200g is kind of painful when you're low-level.

I mean, bashing will usually pay for what you use to def up for it, but that initial hit to buy 10 or so can make you wince. At least the guild will make a fortune though. tongue.gif

What if some jerkface comes and buys out all the meat?

They find them on the shop logs and kick their ass.

My shop logs don't work. sad.gif


Not that I'm selling meat, but I saw that and felt the need to complain. laugh.gif

Yeah. checked the Institute shop, I think we might actually be underselling based on current prices, need to check other things though.
Ileein2010-07-01 04:08:51
Yeah, we're selling at 100 because we can (apparently) get cut gems at a bulk rate of 30 each, and each gem produces 3 facets, so each facet (which = 1 charged gem) comes to 10 gold. We sell in groups of 10, so each group is 100.

Come2Halli?

EDIT: The guildleaders and secretaries are nice enough to pay the price of mass harvesting gems with their own tears and blood without passing that onto the guild. tongue.gif

Let's cut back all gem supply and raise prices.
