CONTEST - The Carpenter's Dilema
from Oldshy on 11/12/2013 05:05 AM
Greetings, your majesty, King Tristanthimun! My name's Sam. I'm just a humble woodcutter, but I've decided to become a carpenter, and sell my wood inventions!
I don't get it; what is the point of your carpenter shop? What will you sell in this shop of yours? Wood carvings, chairs, tables- Yes, but anything of interest to players? What's the point of your shop - how will it contribute to the website, Sam? A chair can't help someone in a quest! I'm afraid I do not know the answer to that, sire. Then why should I allow you to open your shop? I do not know yet, sire. But maybe you do! Me??? No, you - the player! If I can't think of a way this shop will contribute to the game...maybe the players can! In fact, I shall hold a contest! If you think you know how my shop can contribute to the site, send me a PM on the pigeon port, telling me. Title it: "Sam's Contest". Not a bad idea! I will pick out some finalists - whom will each receive 100 XP - and then have users vote on who the winner is. If you win, then you will get 300 XP Tokens and have your idea turned into my shop!

Hey there. My name's Sam. I'm just a humble woodcutter, but since Ithnium's only carpenter recently passed away in that incident with the horse carriage, I've decided to become a carpenter, and sell my wood inventions!
My shop's not open yet, but it will be soon, hopefully! For more info, stop by this thread. Thanks for dropping by!

Healer Class
from Oldshy on 11/10/2013 04:45 AM
I hear you want to learn more about the healer class? Lucky for you, I just so happen to be healer class! Healing is very simple: simply pray to Eelore, the goddess of health, and specify that you're a healer, and who you wish to heal. You can't heal yourself, and healing ONLY covers diseases and poisons. But these things are made up for by the fact that you can trade your healing services for things, in the trading thread.

Ulaud's Challenge
from Oldshy on 11/10/2013 02:00 AM
*Strumming a lute, humming*
O, how I doubt thou can rhyme like me!
O, how I doubt one can mime like me!
O, what I crime that I work for free!
Who is a better bard? Nobody!
But! if you think you can rhyme like me...
And! if you think you can mime like me...
Ha! how I laugh! Still, I challenge thee!
If you succeed, you'll get 100 X.P.!
So come one, come all!
Short-fat, thin-tall!
Send me some messages by pigeon!
What fun! You'll fall!
I shall stand tall!
Send me a PM, for the game ith on! Hear ye! Hear ye! You can send a PM to any admin, titled exactly this: "Challenge Ulaud". In the message, write a four-line verse, all rhyming, and insulting Ulaud. (Think of this as a sort of a rap-battle.) There be only one rule: do not use any vulgar tongue. That will displease the gods, and 10 XP Tokens will be deducted from you if you use any curse words in your verses.
Sounds fun to me, but how do we know when someone wins? Wouldn't we just go back and forth forever? I'm glad you asked, my good sir! After each person has submitted three 4-line verses, the entire conversation will be posted in this thread. There, people can vote for whose verses they enjoyed better. The winner gets 100 XP Tokens!
A Wager With Death
from Oldshy on 11/10/2013 01:45 AMBren stands on a ladder...he's hanging a sign outside his shop. The sign reads, "Bren's Tailor Shop."
Hello down there, my roomy! Whatcha been up to of late? I'm just hanging this here sign for mah shop! Hummda-dum, dum...
Suddenly, the ladder starts to wobble... Whoah....WHOAAAAAHHH!
Bam! Bren lands hard on his head. A large dent is made in his skull.
He's rushed to the infirmorary...
He fell off a ladder, you say? Oh, dear! He hit his head very, very hard! I'm sorry to say this, but there's nothing I can do. He's...dying. Right now, he's still out cold, but we can't expect him to wake up again. I'm sorry, young ranger. I know he was your friend...
The lights flicker...
Oh no...it's happening!
Thunder strikes! The doors swing open, and in comes... Expirion!
Carrylum. Nice to see you. I'm looking forward to your death at sea, in six years! You're bluffing! You would never tell someone their death before it happens! That is true. But I will be there, ready to claim your soul! Just as I have come now to claim Bren's. Of course! You're here for Bren! Oui, madame...he has a date with the Beyond Realm!
This isn't right! You can't just stand here and watch Bren die...you have to do something. You open your mouth, and you are almost shocked yourself with what you say!
........you.....you wish to make a wager with me? For Bren's soul!? Ranger, it isn't healthy to meddle with this sort of thing. You are talking to the god of death right now! You're in over your head! Oh, no, Carry, I like the idea! A friendly game of "Pictionary!" Of course, that game won't be invented for several hundred more years from now, but seeing as I'm a god, I already know of it, and its rules. In fact, I often play it on the saturday game nights I have with Grappeline and Hydrox! What is this game you speak of!? It's simple! We can do it over pigeon port! Basically, I draw a picture of something - and it must be something related to RoR, like a character, or a part f the map, or something like that - and you try to guess what it is. Then, you draw a picture for me, and we go back and forth, until eventually, one of us loses.
This seems risky, but you might be up for it... If you win, Bren lives, and I give you 50 XP Tokens! But if I win, I get Bren's soul, and you'll have to buy it back, for 80 XP Tokens! Are you up for it? This isn't right, ranger! He's probably tricking you! Think about it. If you want Bren to live, and 50 XP Tokens, send me - or any admin - PM via pigeon port. Title it: "Pictionary w/ Death". I will start.
The decision is yours...will you go for it??
The First Game of Hangman
from Oldshy on 11/10/2013 01:21 AM
Why, that's it! I'm brilliant! You! Little boy! Me? Yes! Come here! I have just made a scientific breakthrough! What's that? Why, I have just invented the simplest, most fun game every to be played with just a quill and parchment! I call it "Hangman" If thou be making a mockery of the "hanging" sentence, then I would narry play a game with you, Wizard Willy!
Ash walks off... What shame...ah! But you, my ranger friend, and loyal customer! Might you wish to play "hangman" with me?
Willy appears to be refering to you... Tis a simple game, really. I think of a word. I tell you how many letters, and you try to guess the letters in it. Everytime you guess wrong, something happens...
1 wrong - The accused is presented
2 wrong - His hands are bound
3 wrong - A barrel is put down before him
4 wrong - The accused is asked to step up onto the barrel
5 wrong - The noose is put around the accused's neck
6 wrong - The barrel is kicked away! The accused is hung...you lose! If I win, you lose nothing. If you guess all the letters individually, you win nothing! But if somebody guesses the correct word, that person will be awarded 20 XP Tokens! Care to play?
Current Game I'm thinking of a word...right! Begin!
