Hovering in sixth for most of Knowledge and completely derping out on certain questions I knew (like the Roark and Hyringex Collar ones) was kinda disappointing. But overall, I did a lot better than I thought I would. Not sure how to feel.

Haha, when I typed in ELFENEHOALA I felt like I'd just put all my money into a slot machine and was pulling the lever. I wasn't sure if I had that E in the right place. suspicious.gif

Yeah, I pulled the Elfen(e)hoala mistake too. Also, I totally forgot about Dionamus in the "which Vernals were Merians" question - but in my defence, does anybody give a crap about any of the Vernals except Urlach, Kiakoda and Tzaraziko?

Sort of a combo rant/rave, so it goes here. I'm really excited that I've learned enough coding to almost completely automate all of my aetherhunting, (minus piloting, I still fly manually), but now, unless I'm the one piloting, I'm just as bored as if I'm standing at the Matrix. Good time to work on guild stuff, I guess.

I just code more stuff or have a movie playing on my second monitor. Or I browse the forums and other sites, though I do agree aetherhunting is pretty boring, really I find all forms of experience gaining ie: hunting, influencing, ahunting pretty boring, one of the reasons I'm not demi yet.

Yeah, I'm only doing it so much right now because I accidentally got a 75% experience bonus from an achievement, so I might as well.

Hey, hey, hey! I was merely helping out and telling people to use what they already have!

Possibly the reason why making things for gr10+ only can be an issue. It's cool, but if few people ever actually achieve the rank it will become rather dusty and unused.
Siam2011-01-30 08:25:25
I think it's something that was intended to make people want to do guild stuff and earn guild favors to get to higher guild ranks.

I was told that it's part of certain rituals, but at least one of them has been moved. Also stuff is undocumented so there are things whose functions are no longer remembered.
Sylphas2011-01-30 08:37:38
The only coded ritual I know of is the cleansing ritual. I was going to try to change it to be more freeform, but it got stalled.

There are two cleansing rituals that I know of and neither mentions an altar...

I remember being told that it was supposed to be a secret, and that it was something passed only by word of mouth. I think it was a non-official rite of passage when I got to see it.

gotta say though, it doesn't really make it an incentive to gain ranks if no one knows about it tongue.gif

I know I found out about how to get in there myself after Lisaera freaked me out about not knowing my own guildhall... and then I asked Aramel about it and she showed me (since I wasn't GR10 at the time).

And Saran, ask me / Sylphas about it IG if you want to know.

Edit: Siam's a traitor, don't believe anything he says!

It's not so much knowing, it's more that it's becoming annoying when I'm sending Saran down the ritualist path and finding out that there are more things that would be cool to use that he can't

edit: also with the level of "secrecy" surrounding it, it couldn't be used the way that I want it to without destroying that.
Sylphas2011-01-30 09:12:48
I really meant to make a pamphlet on this stuff to give to people, or at least keep in the library so we had a record of what we could do.

Cleansing ritual that I know of doesn't use the altar, just the ritual items in the avatar rooms. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it's an area wide message, I think, which is cool.
