That was an EGGstremely bad pun, Sally!

I am hopeful that I'll be there for at least some of this, although I think we may be going away. Will do my best.

Has it? Oops! That's not right. Damn sneaky pig!

Fixed.

Yeah, but now his wife is oatmeal!

To add to what Raggy said: 1) All major bugs in the dev copy of the code have been squished, except for one class library that has over 200 differences I need to check out. I doubt there's anything important but I need to make absolutely sure. So, what that means is that we should be able to give yo...

Yes. Yes I will

The person below me has a sexy butt

Hahaha, yeah you get over here girl, and we'll see who does what to whose butt

Wheeeee! I can't remember the last time I heard you on the radio. I can't wait

There you go people... Spiff loves money and doesn't care if she annoys people to get it, even if it's hundreds of people she annoys just for a buck or two! You heard it first right here

I'm probably joking

Speaking of which, I'd say there's an excellent chance of me doing a show at some point during the event. If I can remember how to use a microphone. It's just counting to two isn't it? TWO! TWO! ONE TWO! TWO!

I know what you can do, Spiff.. Something about those bloody popup ads on the wiki! Ughhhhhh!

You know I love you and all but DUDE!

Nuttin.. sup wit u?

I will definitely be there! Bells? Questionable. Hell, even clothes are unlikely. Whatever, I hope to see you there!

What he said. Except in the second-last paragraph, where he probably meant to say "Gobberwart and I", but I'm sure he knew that

Great post Ragazi, your black shirt is in the mail

Yep, that about covers it for this month. Great work, guys. Bill paid *phew*

Hey you! Yeah, you, reading this! Yeah, not the person behind you. You! Ok, have I got your attention now? I hope so. Here's the thing, right. You know that "Donate" link in the game? Yeah, you know how it gives you a "Token of Appreciation" which you can trade for funky stuff every now and then? We...

Pffft! Sally's on top. We all know Sally loves Dixon Cider Spider

Wait... what? Does that even make sense?

/me makes a mental note to get Munk to redirect www.secretsocietywars.com to www.paradoxthemusical.com. And send me all his code.

Muuaaahahahahahaaaaaa*cough*cough*cooooooouuugghhhhh*

LordCretin, you crack me up! Sorry there's been no earth-shattering post in the last couple of weeks. I had something planned, truly I did but then.. well, stuff happens. Long story short, I don't want to stop, but I need a few things to keep going, and to get things moving again, One, I need help w...

Thanks for talking it up, Sally. Now I have to try to be all interesting and shit. For now, some VERY quick answers to this thread... Cowboy: Development hasn't stopped completely, but it's so slow at the moment, it may as well have. Erosion looks fast by comparison. So does <insert name here for co...

Never mind, that was easy. I hadn't tried turning it off and back on again.

The hosting provider appears to have upgraded PHP on me without warning, and some critical functionality has unexpectedly changed. I'm working on it and it'll be back soon.

Indeed. Just because nothing's changed in the production game lately, doesn't mean I've got nothing to do. I don't see ANY good reason why this needs to be changed.

We considered that when we made it, and yes it's both possible and allowed, unless the "other player" is your multi, in which case you're probably just being a git. Regardless, remember that anything you do that prevents someone donating is probably a bad thing in the long run. We're hardly overrun ...

As soon as I have a date, I'll publish it. Right now... how long is a piece of string?

Birthday box has nothing to do with Beta... Could be today, tomorrow, next week or three weeks ago. Who knows?

One of the ideas mentioned in here has interested me greatly. If I told you which, I'd have to kill you.

What mack said. At the end of the day, if you're worthy of respect, your account will show a positive balance, so one inactive account's disrespect point won't make any difference.

Think about it. Florist Gump is not a major part of the game, so labelling every single item in the game based on what Florist Gump does with them just wouldn't make any sense. The only reason anyone is finding this in any way confusing (or "misleading" if you like) is because you're used to KoL-sty...

It's definitely working as intended, so not a "bug" as such, but I see what you're saying. I'll put it on the ever-growing list of things to look at.

Exactly

1. I think you mean technically.

2. You're wrong. What do you mean, we have no gifting function? What would you call attaching an item to a pmail and sending it to someone then? Just because we're not sticking something in a box, doesn't make it not a gift.

This isn't KoL.

It's Sparta.

I'll never tell.

No chance whatsoever.

Looks like the confirmation system we were using just isn't compatible with this version. Thought I checked that, but there you go. I've taken it out and set it back to the built-in one for the time-being so new users should be able to log in again. Let me know if any problems. If spam becomes an is...

Forums got updated recently - must've broken the confirmation system. I'll check it out shortly.

We have other plans for this, but thanks

Paradox is fine. Clear your browser cache maybe? Try turning it off and on again?

In inline chat, with fifty-plus people in chat, what would the benefit be of *having* the player list? Hence why I was considering removing it and just making inline chat very basic. Personally, I almost exclusively use popup chat, but that's because I don't actually play the game, at least not in p...

Yes, but is it bacon-wrapped?

Heh, I love the way you guys seem to think I have plans for everything, as if I know what I'm doing. Haven't you all worked out yet that I make this all up as I go along? That said... there will indeed be clans in the game, and they will have some sort of shared item arrangement (call it a Stash for...

"You might have someone's eye out" is an *EXTREMELY* common phrase, referring to the result of playing with sharp objects. Well, it is here, anyway. Chalk it up to more Aussie/Brit weirdness

But yes, there are 100% too many C's in the cold chisel description. I'll fix that.

The big difference is that chat is a live action thing, so as stuff happens, it gets stamped right in your face, by your computer. Everything else is stored on the server and retrieved later, so it can't be stamped by your computer (because it wasn't paying attention at the time). Changing chat to p...

In this case, I don't think so jupe. The specific reference pronounces the word as "senora", not "señora" (it's a "nor" sound not a "nyor" sound) so the tilde's unnecessary.

I'm probably wrong, though. I usually am

Heh, just remember that chat effects get added when the sender of the message creates their message (so that everyone sees the same thing), whereas the swear filter activates only when the viewer sees the message *if* the viewer has that option turned on.

Navigating all those "just"s, while amusing the hell out of me, is a bit tricky mate. I've actually already got a to-do item on the list involving implementing some sort of store advertising system, and a "wanted to buy" component is in there. The idea of putting something in the item description ha...

Anyone else think this should be changed, ie. should I change the chat system so that the timestamps show the times that messages were actually created on the server as opposed to the local time on your computer when the messages are displayed? The only real problem with doing so that I can think of...

I can't really see the point of combining items to make something that already drops readily in the game. As far as the pastry goes... patience my pet. All will become clear before beta. Well, clearer than it is now anyway. Pastry was never intended to be left lying around unused this long, and this...

You're on the right track, but the ARH doesn't replace anything. That's the game's inbuilt swear filter which is either on or off depending on the viewer's preferences.
