The Metric Satan

I'd just like to announce that the Metric Satan has reached 1297 USD, and I feel it is appropriate that it stabilizes at this value. I'm glad my player ID was not higher.

Re: March Podcast Thread

Personally, I would like to know, how did I beat the ZOMega ? I understand most of the ZOM skill mechanics, but I was doing zero damage no matter what I tried during the first several battles, until suddenly I wasn't. I know you're not outright going to tell us, so can I get one of the following ans...

Re: Minor bugs

Sorry I can't find a root cause analysis for this, but "/count star" returns "You don't have anything in your inventory that matches 'star'.", even though I clearly have things with star. For instance "/count silver star" works.

Re: State of the Game 2015

Addressing solely the part about a badge for finding bugs, there is an item gifted by the admins for finding bugs (either by finding lots of small bugs, or a seriously game breaking bug). It's rare to find those game breaking bugs now that the game has left beta, but bugs still happen.

Re: Kickstarter Ad Campaign

KS actually takes 5%, and the processor fees vary between 3 and 5%. These are also /usually/ tax free as they're an investment cost, but obviously consult a tax professional. But yes, you do need to account for around 10% going elsewhere.

I can understand that. I had assumed most current players would continue donating normally, so the kick starter would just be extra money for ads only. But I suppose if those new players from KS had lots of stars, it might be awhile before they donated normally.

Re: froggy madness

My only guess is that you go back in time, pop open a bunch of eggs, kill their respective voracious tadpoles, then go back to the future's past, and the reign is weaker. But I didn't have time to test that theory yesterday.

I'm confused. How are you seeing retcons listed on your character sheet? I can see your history by going to your character profile (not sheet), and clicking on the link next to retcon history. I don't see anything related to retcons at all on my own character sheet.
