Lagscension 2012.

The lag was probably caused mostly by the ~3000 hamsters that were trying to move every 0.5 seconds. ;)

So you're saying it'll be worse when 5000 kethuru mobs, 7000 astral mobs, and about 100 players are wandering about on astral.

...D:

Yeah, that was my reaction... 'how many Kethuru mobs will there be again?'

Not many after I farm do my part to save the world.

Why, they're gonna drop like 100 gold per now instead of millions.

See above post. :(

I really hope the shop-expander comes out today. It would be really nice for it to come out on a weekend day, when I'd have time to do all the work of setting things up after it's in; and really un-nice if it comes out on a weekday when I'm busy all day or travelling (all this coming week!), and then decay starts immediately thereafter.

Happened to be looking up some name meanings and was amused at the meanings and origins I found for Abeytu, Miakoda, Maylea, and Poloma. (No listings for Tokota or Nintoba though.) Abeytu's gender is also interesting. (I knew the Maylea one before this, but the others, I never happened to look up or notice.)

You're a goddamn patriot.

Please institute, elect someone to your GM that has "IP" as their initials.

What, so they're the TPIP? Text Processing in Python?

Perl.

I thought you were going for the childish joke (normal fare on the forums), making the leader of the I.S.H.I.T.K be I.P.

Elostian needs to learn what bemused actually means. That or the powerful God that seems to know everything needs to stop being so confused all the time.

He is simply confused by feelings of joy/amusement, clearly.

Though I've retired to this little farm and my days of adventure are over, I sometimes wonder if history will simply note that Avechna the Avenger was awoken and reformed the Nine Seals, driving Kethuru back into his prison for another age. True, the Basin of Life was saved that day, but who will remember the cost? The great powers of Gaudiguch, Hallifax, and Ackleberry Forest are already fading into legend. Gloriana is now known as the Glomdoring Forest and none who enter ever return. The Tainted in Magnagora are apparently breeding amongst themselves, calling their offspring the viscanti race. Yes, the cost was great indeed.

And in my darker hours I wonder if the cost has even yet been fully paid.

I love reading over the history of Lusternia. This is my second-favourite entry.

Gaudiguch's bards exude alcoholic vapor in sufficient quantities to make people drunk. Alcohol is highly flammable. Shouldn't they be walking fuel-air explosions?

Having a novice interview interrupted by a vengeance game. Great stuff.

That seems rantish. TO THE BAT CAVE.
