I want a custom Demesne Watch message, so Nienla can see me traipsing in and out of her demesne in my care-free manner.

I want a custom uncitizen message:

readlog gaudiguch
Date > Being corrupt again, Kalin has kicked Xenthos from Gaudiguch. Elections shall commence shortly.'

Only problem with that is that it might encourage kicking!

It should be a custom welcome message instead.

Xenthos has brought Kalin into the shadowy, yet welcoming, embrace of the Glomdoring. There are no parties expected.

I don't actually know the message you get if someone trips a trap with a bell attached.

It's not really true, no. I followed that thread very carefully, even though I was quite new at the time (and still am, really) — the 1/3 refund people were tossing around was supposed to be an essence refund to persons losing their Ascendancy skillset and reverting to Demigod.


Yeah, the difference being that IRE is forcing you to lose Ascendancy from the endgame revamp. It isn't your fault, nor do I think it's really fair to incur that loss because the game mechanics unwillingly make you.

Doesn't mean we can't still bitch and moan and attempt to make it fair. All about grabbing it by the hair and punching it in the face a few times. Yea!

It's lousy. Like you go to buy your bagel at the bagel shop, and the lady gives you back gypsy change instead of the full amount. And then she takes your bagel away too(cults). But, of course, you can always buy another bagel if you're really hungry.

Just to be devil's advocate:

-It could be considered as payment for ascendancy OP skills while you had them
-Some vernals were raised who were not demis, thereby counteracting the free demi aspect of ascendancy
-The top ascendants and demis hunt just to hunt, and will continue to hunt just because we can get higher text numbers (See: Xenthos Rag Lendren Shuyin Krellan myself), and some of us have already hunted the equivalent of demi 2/3/4 times over. Yes, we have.
-People (such as myself) have lost tens of millions of essence due to bugs that I won't get back. I'm not crying constantly about it though.

I'm sorry but did that JERKFACE just diss (!) my want for a custom entrance/exit message? I also want an ambience message.

I will destroy you.

Point 3 counters point 2, and point 4 counters point 1. If the top ascendants have hunted demi 2/3/4 times over, why would they be penalized for ascending before demi? tongue.gif

If you've lost tens of millions of essence from bugs that you will never get back, why are they considering all this extra amount of essence as payment for ascendancy? Huh!?

Kalin is standing here surrounded by an aura of corruption.

Not quite, those were some random interjections anyhow. The third is the most important one. Those who get hurt the most are the ones who will keep hunting just because they want bigger text numbers.

Kalin enters from the west, the image of golden sovereigns are reflected in his eyes, and the stench of corruption follows him.

The wails of political victims sacrificed to his corruption follow Kalin as he departs to the east.

My zap will be:

Oppressing the freedom of Kante, a lightning charged voting ballot, already marked with Kalin's name, comes flying in from the heavens, striking him in the face.

What? The intelligent discussion that uses logic and reason? You're right, it did!
