Yeah copying isn't actually that hard. I'll just stick to this system, that one has its own problems.

Give dagger back.

Isn't there a monetary reward or something for posting the Merchant's Memo/Auction List thing?

I still want you to show me some quicktopic examples, if you can produce some. I don't mind you showing me automation tools and infact appreciate it, I would love to see this become an online browser game like neopets for example, with groups of players each forming a kingdom on an overworld. Different worlds would have different speed settings, and sandbox or linear modes...

Anyway I see automation as good, but I must weigh it with the conveniences of visibility in one place. If there are enough tools that you share to make it worth committing, then that could be fun, and there could definitely be sessions that are intentionally committed to them.

Yes. To be handled by you. *wink*

The king must appoint a tax collector for salaries and taxes to be collected.

Fine, since the rules are now apparently that I can't do ANYTHING and heal at the same time I guess I'll buy a beer... and drink it...

Tomorrow I'm going adventuring to B4, C4, and C3 before coming back to the kingdom, leaving at the first opening of the gate.

Did the bank transaction go through or do I have to post the "Bank D: money leather" thing specifically?

I may be late to close the bard contest, prizes may be awarded some time after the gate opens. Try not to set fire to the kingdom while I'm away, play nice!

I don't have a picture, but I do like Prosperitan. I had an idea for an icon that was a blade of grass or some plant with an axe and a pickaxe crossed behind it.

Whereas the Peacekeepers are a mysterious cult that try to surpress the Monster God, the Followers of Him (FoH) are an even darker cult deadset on bringing the Monster God to awake, and raise him into this dimension where he may wreak havoc. Think, dark blood cult, with arcane powers that come from the bloody runes they draw ( ;D Hail Nar'Sie)

The Prosperitans are long standing worshipper of the Prosperity God, they share sacred bonds with the Peacekeepers to keep balance in the world and to not allow the Monster God to grow to powerful. They worship in small shrines with multiple empty stories, and a pool of water deep underground that is believed to hold the essence of life and love, and nature, that new head priests and religious leaders get baptized in. They await the day their god comes in mortal form, to slay the Monster God when he is risen, and bring everlasting peace to the world. (And thus, they kinda rely on the FoH to achieve their goals too)


Your transaction will be processed as well as the weekly price report when the gate opens.


I handle the reward money? Does it come from the Kingdom Treasury? Does it come from nowhere? It's 5x the people who don't leave that day.... so is that like, everyone but me? That's about 8 people, so 40 gold?

Also when I try to copy from phone it gets rid of all the line breaks, so maybe I do have to UAE the htwins.net thing?

Also the edit thing is different from quicktopic.

The fifth day of King Grek's reign:
Aslandus was robbed for ten gold!
Squeegy was robbed for ten gold! The robber brought along a Smoke Bomb.

I thought I had a guard guarding me from being robbed, was that just for the day shift and doesn't even last for the night (The post said "tonight" so I would think it would at least last that long)? Also, how did they rob me of ten gold when I only had 3 left on my person (75 in the bank, 5 given to the guard, 7 spent on beer)?

Yes. My fault, Squeegy was given a lot of directions and PMs from myself and the Rabbit Foot bearer, you will be refunded.

Alright, this is what I'm looking for, based on the new instructions Squeegy:

(The time to open the gate is about 7am GMT, which is 1am PST. Perhaps you have the target time mixed up by 12 hours, you want to get it posted about 12 hours earlier. Question to everyone: Would players like if we did switch the times by 12 hours?)

(Once there is a clear time established, there will be dangers and penalties to the gate being late, open too late exposes the kingdom to night creatures, closed too late means less outside trade and profit to the merchant guild.)

GATE OPEN!

First Day of the Empty Throne of Dokimi
>The GuildMasters have yet to choose their new heir to the throne.
>The NPC Guard protected Aslandus from a robbery attempt. The culprit vanished in a cloud of smoke and was not identified. *
>I was robbed last night of ten gold! **
>Peradon and Aslandus were seen heading out this morning. (Aslandus didn't use the proper format, so you were within your bounds to detain him as you did, I did correct it for him though and told him it was fixed, and that he'd just needed to take care of it next time)

* (You should have been told this person had a smoke ball, but that will be a discussion I'll have with the Rabbit Foot bearer, again my fault for not being clearer to them)
** (You were told they brought a smoke ball in case you knew that the victim-you in this case, was protected. THEN they would flee with the item, otherwise they'd not be detected and not need it as they got away with the loot.

I want to emphasize my appreciation Squeegy, for taking on one of the hardest roles at this time while the game is still in development. I am confident we will continue to streamline, simplify and clarify this duty, and soon it will be in a more final and more clear to grasp the breathd of whats needed, rather than the current state where things are a bit more disorganized, though with this post, perhaps some light has been shed on what is needed, and with any questions needing to be asked, asked, things will run increasingly smoother from here on out.
