the game has been live for a short while as the early adopters were helping test and stuff in yospos IRC

the other two games Lord 2 and 3 will be reset to clean slatetonight at 6MDT, lord 1 tho gonna keep the grip of people who've already been on it

luckily there's no slaughter mode or anything, tougher players cant kill lower players etc.

killing people around your level is the only way to really advance in level efficiently. forest fightings not going to do it. this isnt to you bsd boys but to everyone else trying to level up to the point the game gets more fun

-----------------------------------------------
ANOTHER NOTE FOR NEW LORD JOINEES INTO THE GAME
-----------------------------------------------

Just be careful about leveling up as soon as
you can, keep mind to keep your weapons and
your ARMOR up before you do, it might take a
couple days of play to really get in a strong
point to advance, but dont advance weakly.

Especially when you hit 8/9/10.

ya. hotel stays are there so that you can't get popped by anyone being a jerk, it's worth it and as you get up past the very first couple levels the price doesnt really go up, so it becomes nearly meaninglessly cheap to do.

I still can't connect even though my settings match those posted earlier, though I am still trying to connect from my university. I wonder if they block telnet or something.

well, you can't block "telnet" per-se, its about the most basic form of network communication that exists. just a open socket practically.

but they can block ports, not sure why they would not let you out on 219 but .. . you are using port 219 and not the default of 23, right?

okay lets see if you can get out on port 219 at all,

i just put up a dumb daemon on port 219 that just echos back text and pastes it to me

so start > run > cmd or open terminal.app if on a mac, then type

telnet yospos.net 219

and then A) see if it connects and B) if it echos back what you babble into it

like this:



and report back... (PS nobody else try this the daemon will bind to you and isnt multithreaded its like 5 lines of python so leave it for tusen takk)

well someone connected and typed "hey rear end in a top hat"

i relaunched the daemon, it's up for a connection again now, since it was someone else that got it first, cna you try just one more time?

if you get the same thing then ya you're just hopelessly hosed unless you can open the port with your network admin

i stayed in the Inn on the main screen (400 gold) and i just logged in and said i was killed. what's the deal? isn't that supposed to protect you?

if you did, then it was only by someone near your level who bribed the innkeeper like mentioned a few times itt and by jonny above.

it protects you from getting swept though by someone levels above you however, so it's at least a fair fight, just don't level up too quickly, i can't reinforce enough the power of sticking at a level longer than it takes to get to beat the master at turgens, he is deceptively easy and beating him does not mean you're ready for the next level forest NPCs and other players on that level.
