Angkrag is where the Viscanti Noble Houses sent their decrepit and falling-apart lich lords to 'retire'.
I take that as a similar connection to the Celest-Paavik one I mentioned, but I still think that's nowhere near as strong a cultural connection as Gaudigugh-Dairuchi, or Hallifax-Talthos, or Ackleberry-Estelbar. That's not to say it's nothing.

Pretty sure they are competitor villages, if you mean in terms of feelings.
No, that is not what I meant. I acknowledge that in reference to their pairing over racial reasons, as opposed to anything comm related, which is where the importance in the distinction lies. Dairuchi and Talthos don't, in any way I've seen, compete for resources.

Arguably it's stronger than Talthos, which has been out of contact with the Basin of Life (excluding trade relations w/ the Observatory and Mesa) for half a millenia.
Angkrag, their children still live in Magnagora today.

I guess the moral of the story is 'when you're given lemons, don't ask Xenthos to make you lemonade'?
Nice.
Also Rika, I'm hearing pretty much the opposite of what you're saying; Glomdoring started off strong, held even through the middle, and started to fade at the end. However, given how villages work, that wouldn't have meant Seren would have won after two and a half hours... it just would have gone longer. They were just level 1 feelings.

What is considered an acceptable dress code in Hallifax? For example, in the lucidian concept art she is almost completely naked. Does that mean I can get away with showing some thigh?
Rika2010-10-26 22:59:50
Lucidians are rocks. I don't know about you, but if I see more rocks without clothes than with.

I am Mayor of Hallifax. And I approve this message.
But in seriousness, I think Hallifax could get away with some kind of sexy sci-fi and steampunk marriage. With a bit of high class Victorian nonsense thrown in.

If I recall correctly, the head researcher in the ruby labs is a smokin' hot lucidian chick. Phoebus could elaborate for you, but I'd recommend looking her over.

Serenwilde was even at worst, if not winning that revolt until the very end and I daresay that even with level 1 feelings for Glom, under the old system, Serenwilde should have got that in the two and a half hours we were ahead.
But...you weren't. I know that after Glom, Hallifax was a closer second than Serenwilde was until they tapered off in the end and it became mostly Glom/Seren with a scattering of Celest and Hallifax. Without tangible information to review right now though, I'd pretty much say you never were 'ahead' for 'two and a half hours' because it was a revolt that lasted a bit over two hours with Glomdoring leading it since the beginning.
And I could've sworn that, village feelings change or not, how villages work right now have been how they were before? Org x gets so and so points above org y before the village sways in favour of org x. Village feelings just now (relative use of the word 'now' here) started giving org x and org y ++ points at the beginning of the revolt according to their levels, but they'd still have to reach that margin between one another before the revolt ends.
Unless, of course, I misunderstand the functions of village revolts completely, but this hasn't changed, no?

Okay. I can get away with this outfit I'm designing then. Expect something -extra special- in artisanals this month.
Also just checked this lucidian in ruby lab. One word. Woah:
A tall and willowy lucidian, Ai'dayi Lars has a disturbingly sensual figure. Every curve seems perfectly crafted, as if her body itself were one of the famous crystal sculptures of the floating city of Hallifax. Lengths of woven and dyed cloth cover her arms as if they were the billowy sleeves of robes, though they end at her shoulders where they are attached to an almost harness-like, carnelian coloured crystal top. Form fitting yet apparently designed for protection, the top cuts off just below where one might expect her sternum to be. Covering the lower half of her form is a long flowing skirt of the same material as her sleeves, though her left side is in possession of a cut from mid-thigh down to the floor, revealing much of her smooth, vaguely rubescent crystal leg.

2 hours and 49 minutes is barely "a bit" over two hours. Glomdoring did start off a bit better, but after a couple of rounds, I'm pretty sure Serenwilde were ahead, at least when it came to who had more villagers.
I'm pretty sure they changed how revolts worked, because they said contested revolts should take longer than they used to. I think it used to be that points were accumulated and once you got enough points over another org, you win. Now, it's just a percentage of the points available. If a villager is under the influence of one org, they get the points, but once they become laidback, those points are removed from the org's total.

Xiel2010-10-26 23:38:24
I would say that you weren't ahead for 'two hour and a half hours' either because of the whole thing I already mentioned with Hallifax and whatnot. Clarification on revolts would be great though.
