I was born with a disease called being a good person. One of the symptoms is having a really hard time resisting the urge to help people, especially if their having fun depends on it. It really conflicts with all the peer pressure from my shady internet past to being a troll sometimes.

Like when my friends and I set up a server for Left4Dead and would screw with everyone who came in, I would always ruin their good time by breaking down into giggles and explaining how we did certain things to our intended victim and just joking around with them about it. They're all ALLYSON WE'RE TRYING TO BE TROLLS HERE and I'd be like "HEE HEE LOOK I'M FILLING THE SKYBOX WITH WITCHES! WOW THERE IS SO MUCH CRYING HAHA! HERE I'LL GIVE YOU NOCLIP COME PLAY WITH STUFF!"

Joke's on them. I made a lot of Steam friends that way. happy.gif

Your name is PHOEBUS. You have a variety of INTERESTS. You have been diagnosed with BEING A VERY AWESOME PERSON. You have a fondness for TROLLING people though it fills you with a PROFOUND SENSE OF GUILT AND JOY, and you are an ASPIRING ARTIST OF IMMEASURABLE TALENT. You also like to play GAMES sometimes.

This feels like an appropriate time to repost this:

A new way to advance within the Order! happydance.gif

Whooo, talked a new Nihilist into joining Fain's Order, showed her everything she needed to know and then baptised her. cheer.gif FINALLY, all those I tried it on before ended up ninja-joining another Order or stopped playing.

It's so nice to see an "Elder Stateswoman" around (Ialie).

I like how close they are to the Major house leader.

This seems an extraordinarily high a gain for 1 prestige win. Was it a bug?

Other stuff also contributed at the same time, it seems. I would not know if it is enough to be that high, still, but it was not just one prestige win going on.
Arel2011-05-15 04:17:22
I think Eve said prestige wins are 25k. Irillia also ticked a stage publication at the same time, but I'm not sure what that's worth.

Thank you for clarifying that, and to Llesvelt also. I still don't know what numbers to expect for all the various things (Has anyone compiled a list anywhere yet?) and that total just looked very large, but I suppose all is well, congrats!

Brief rave for being able to check messages on the website...maybe it a lot easier to see potions/poisons I had lost when my vials decayed.

House of Letters, too - library stuff is their shtick, and can only be given out to 3 houses (if you include theatre) every 24 RL days.

Prestige wins are 15k, as are play wins. Looking:

QUOTE
2011/05/15 02:31:44 - The House's eyes are raised as its honour improves:
Nihmriel's literary works have been published and drawn attention to the family.
2011/05/15 02:31:44 - The House's eyes are raised as its honour improves:
Irillia's dramatic works have finally hit the stages - encore! Encore!
2011/05/15 03:41:38 - The House's eyes are raised as its honour improves: our
family is known for their good breeding.


It looks like Irillia won the World Stage, it just didn't post for some reason.

So Shevat got +30k honour for the round winnings, not counting modifiers (+25% for scholarly gains, so they actually got 18750 for that, and +10% for play, so 16500, for a total of 35250.

As always, a break-out scholarly work and the most talked about stage production would bring any family into a competition!

Edit: Actually, Nihmriel's book was literary, so it's +15% instead of +25%, so 17250 + 16500 = 33750
Eventru2011-05-15 09:33:44
I thought I'd add a rave.

Kalikai and Mysrai finally found a Gaudiguchian bard! Now to just get him into the Basin of Life...
Calixa2011-05-15 10:24:55
Nice going Shevat. That's going to be fun to compete with when you guys get to Great House biggrin.gif
