in the BBS there is a "scores" option and you can pick lord 1 to see the game status, but it doesnt explicitly show that

nope it doesn't. you don't need to Enter the game too when you select Lord 1, which doesn't make you go out of the Inn if you decide to quit. i guess there's nothing there that can tell you

btw common wisdom that i read from LoRD sites is that many people skip 10/11 and just camp at 9 until 10,000,000 experience and weapons/exp to beat turgon.

i just tried this. so. lol and im gonna go die a lot now.

but this is why it looks like i got super powerful super quick, i didn't really, i camped out a lot at 8/9. and PKs are the name of the game, you get exp quick by PKing.

When you first start they game it says "You've already played today". It won't say that when the day has been reset. Also, from the main town square if you "view stats" it'll tell you how many forest fights you've got left...

So is it always 4.5 hours we've got to wait between "days" in LoRD1?



I think I'll take up knitting while I wait.


Or maybe get into watching the weather channel - that seems like a good time.

i think it's 12 hour days

i think you should take up knitting, but you could probably knit and watch the weather channel at the same time

nah, i robbed the bank tho a few times, am a thief + catch a fairy in the forest, you can go to the bank and press "2" to release the fairy and she will know what's up, and unlock the vault and you walk out with a fairly-decent-for-your-level amount of dough

argh... it doesn't save the fairy you caught. i decided to attempt and failed miserably. another 1200 times two to stay in the Inn because the first time i withdrew it didnt save that amount to gold in hand!
