So does the game offer any other goals other than levelling up? I'll probably stick with it because I like pointless things, and I like pointless things that don't seem to take up all my processing power, but I'm curious. The manual lists 8 quests, three of which are finished, three of which I've found and accepted and two of which are in areas in different bits of the map. Is that an exhaustive list, or am I going to be presented with more that are hidden until I've gotten more levels or taken a boat from the bay?

Assuming you'd just be able to fail a captcha as many times as you want is stupid, but so is expecting people to be watching the chat on an idle game at all times.

Doublepost with a question, do timers just go down naturally as you level? I'm reading the mining manual page and it looks like a pick can get you -8 and other gear can get you -7. A lot of that can't be equipped until you're really deep in anyway. Mana regen doesn't seem to be anywhere near high enough to keep buffs up. People are talking about 20s timers and here I am with 50 seconds on everything, wondering how you're supposed to get there.

I don't think it's that they hate new players so much as they just hate people upsetting their applecart. More than anything else, it just seems like they're upset we're questioning them and their game.

In about 4000 exp, I hit mining 30 and can slow down on the salt rock surplus. What are our mining needs? Nickel or Volundr, or something else we need lower down? Keep beelining for exp for higher level things?

We're still two million xp from 50th. None of the people in that space apart from ATF are growing particularly fast, so probably a couple of weeks.

Goons are dumb. In their defence, the admin is also pretty dumb, as are the pubbies and the game itself.

Rule of thumb, as with most things, is probably "if you have to ask, maybe don't?"

You can run it in the background while raiding or whatever for more efficient MMO itch scratching.

10:28:08 From Charles Bukowski : did I sell you snail bucks at aeon bay, 1.8 months ago around 2pm central time Does the game track these trades itself, or is he keeping a trade spreadsheet that divides months up decimally?

Moose_Knuck posted:That was a sweet haul of snail gear, gents. I feel lost now, though, without the hunt for rainbow snails. Are these sweet saved up random drop bonuses worth spending for golden eggs, or should I just keep them until the next event? Those timer bonuses are going straight to chopping the woods There's a few things with good random drops, it kind of depends what you're doing. Try to use at least a few of them if you're getting full. No point in letting them get capped and wasting pubbie gifts.

Festive boots are pretty difficult to get at this point. The cheapest in shops are 2 sparklies for 30k and then 5 normal ones for 50k. We're out in storage. Basically, unless someone bought up a big pile when they were cheap I don't think they're really an option, at least for new players and probably for most of the rest of us.

Chronos blacklisted us back during the cone shenanigans in april. He is a good example of the fun and friendly long time players this game has.

The other thing is that cherry pies disappear pretty quickly a lot of the time. Taking 10 seconds off for an hour is 15 pies. A single person could very easily use several hundred in a day. In a guild of 61 actives, they're not going to last long.

bmoon posted:Amar goons XP v0.6.1 My salt rock timer is 20 and xp per action is 24. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that mean I'll get an action every 21 seconds, for 171 ish actions an hour and 4.1k xp per hour? I assume I've cocked up using the spreadsheet somewhere? Also, gently caress this game's xp curve literally no-one needs any more salt, why is it by far the best thing to mine?

Oh yeah, salt's definitely the best. We don't have 80k of the stuff for nothing.

RabbitWizard posted:Counting down to 0 adds a second. So a 20 timer action takes 21 seconds. That's what I said? The issue was that the spreadsheet was reporting a little over half the XP I ought to get given I was getting 24 xp every 21 seconds. I wanted to know if I was using the spreadsheets wrong or if the calculation was busted.

I'm guessing grumpy looked at the logs, realised he was just attention seeking and moved on. I don't know why they don't just ban him for being a poo poo though.

Yeah, but there's such a thing as discretion and judgement - that quite clearly wasn't actually spam or anything remotely offensive. He shut down a perfectly reasonable conversation between two players by enforcing a (frankly really stupid) rule about little technicalities, and he was hostile about it - he never said what rule was broken, even when asked, and took the time to threaten further bans rather than leaving it. It's not like he's running a legal system or a 400 person irc room, he could afford half a minute to read up and decide whether a mute was going to accomplish anything at all. Surely the point of rules is to make the chat a friendlier and more fun place to be - Virtus not only solved precisely no problems with that mute, he actively made the chat less welcoming. Like, we talk a whole lot about how terrible the roleplayers and the bitter vets are at making the game better for new people, but the people running the drat thing should not be the ones chasing regular talk away.

Goons have a terrible habit of being better than everyone else at video games, and being extra smug about it.

I think plus duration buffs are applied at the end? I usually queue up my buffs then spend the first 20 seconds chugging my cider and switching to my sparkly outfit.
