It's hard to say - there are plenty of days when I log in, play all my turns, and log out, without having seen a single other person in chat; but really it's been like that as long as I can remember. I had a lot of trouble with the IHOA event, it just didn't seem friendly to frequent retconners. It'...

Mana Yachanichu

Looks pretty cool, hope it works.

Estemmenosuchus: Hit It sheds crocodile tears. You are so distracted trying to give sympathy that you don't notice it bite you in the leg. It demands that you bow down before it, then headbutts you. Hey, who crowned it king anyways? It changes its name to "Sheen," and successfully protest...

I started doing heirloom runs as soon as they were introduced - mostly because they allow me to use my digitizer and multiversal call center without having to worry about pulls. So doing derby runs is just like doing normal runs for me, besides what I pull. Despite that, I've managed to get a non-gu...

Mana Yachanichu

Unless you restricted those.

In fact, my last several retcons, I did 5 pulls/day and naturally hyper, and I didn't play a turn until Day 3. I just pulled 5 items each in days 1 and 2. This change wouldn't have been any more than a minor convenience, in case I forgot to log in on day 2.

I got the goggles years ago while I was messing around to get the Lvl 50 badge - I don't even remember the fight, but there they are in my MM.

Mana Yachanichu

Ah I see. "Better chance to get what you want the more times you cast it" could mean several different things, so I am glad to see clarification.

Mana Yachanichu

It looks neat! I will get one!

You still use 1s and 0s? Luddite! I suppose you haven't even ever heard about neuron streaming!

Well, I didn't donate this month because I happened to have a surplus of silver stars, with which I got the IotM. I do plan to donate again once those run out, but I AM a poor starving (graduate) student, and TH and KoL are my only real entertainment expenses.

Mana Yachanichu

That sounds like a great idea.

Maybe they can introduce understudy equipment, which is made by crafting from the item that created them. Or something.

Mana Yachanichu

I can see almost no reason why you would have bought this thing for the suit since it's, as you alluded to, underwhelming, and that's regardless of the shirt this month. This item was clearly valuable for the cycle and that thing is still awesome. Well, I bought it for the suit since I had nothing ...

Mana Yachanichu

That wasn't necessarily the point of making this thread - which was that an IotM got made obsolete within two months, and would it be possible to buff it in any way?

Although I guess the answer to my question is "absolutely not". Okay, fine.

I don't see how. The jacket is completely better than the Suit, and the Cycle isn't all that useful as far as I can tell.

Mana Yachanichu

That doesn't mean that all of sudden it's useless and no one will ever want. I love my Vortex Cycle. I love it for its flavor, but for an IotM, it would be nice if I got more than 2 months before something completely better came along. I can't think of many circumstances where people would have thi...

Mana Yachanichu

Okay, so I bought the Vortex Cycle when it came out. For two reasons; one, I donate when I can because this is a great game and I want to support it. But also, because at that point I didn't have any shirt or pants IotMs, and the Vortex Suit would be useful. Well, fast forward a whole 2 months, and ...

Mana Yachanichu

I have 4 of one of the octotron fusion parts, and 1 each of 8 others. Given how few there are in the mall, I think it would be cool to have some sort of fusion transformer that "zaps" the parts. No creating new ones, so still one per ascension.

Mana Yachanichu

Well, let's see: Maso, Psion: get lucky, have the battle of the bands event in run. Use bandoliers and bandanas. Maso, Elemental: try and fail at level 11. Get really angry. Level to 12 to get the skill, turn in IOUs for bonus skill points, use that skill. (Don't even remember which one). Hope that ...

Mana Yachanichu

Aww, I don't get the Maso hate from the top . . . unless you have statistics that it makes people ragequit.

Mana Yachanichu

Ryme wrote:They're not really designed to be named on your retcon history page, besides the handful of named runs, which we thought might be popular paths.

So how popular IS Maso, then?

Mana Yachanichu

Any of the sidekicks, especially Fahrenheit 4-5.1

Maybe the GigaGuy cannon.

And the kilt.

Mana Yachanichu

Presumably it can;t be a copyrighted image, or however that works?

Mana Yachanichu

Huh, I must have misread the wiki at some point.

Mana Yachanichu

I thought a run needed a minimum of 1 mettle to allow you to perm a skill . . .

Mana Yachanichu

Oh, no, I know how to get the bonus mettle.

My question was, how do you do an otherwise mettle-free "trainee" run?

Mana Yachanichu

My huge, current mistake: Maso Psion run... I DO NOT advise this AT ALL . Heh, my Elemental was worse than my Psion Maso run by a lot . . . Accidentally started a trainee run, so realising that 1 mettle wasn't enough to perm a skill, I did the space station adventure to earn bonus mettle. How does ...

Consider the alternative, man . . .

Mana Yachanichu

Ooh, yes, that works.

Mana Yachanichu

Yeah, and then I can link it to here.

My character is a woman, and I would visualise her default class as gadgeteer . . . that's all I got.

Mana Yachanichu

I realize this is an old thread, but . . .

Would it be possible for someone to make a sig for me? I would use this on other sites to advertise the game, basically. If possible, it would have some sort of picture of my character; I don;t have any art right now in mind.

Thanks!

Mana Yachanichu

My very first *ouch, and I love it!

Mana Yachanichu

It's awesome - I really like the writing on it, and you can never have too many Sesame Street references.

Mana Yachanichu

So the variety of talismans in the game is great, but I am not sure that this does anything given how much of an issue it is to switch them - though I see the narrative justification for it. I think a skill that reduced the cost would be potentially interesting.

Mana Yachanichu

Welcome mara - I seem to remember you from KoL though I don't know if that was the forums or the actual game.

Mana Yachanichu

As a guy with the most laughable "beard" ever seen, I too support more beards in the game.

Mana Yachanichu

. . . which rather neatly eliminates the need for mall multis. Yay!

Mana Yachanichu

Well, a James Bond-esque character as the sidekick of a superhero - Batman came to mind first is all.

Mana Yachanichu

Looks good, although the idea of James Bond teaming up with Batman is a bit incongruous.

Mana Yachanichu

Well, clearly I should have been resting - the PP from the wigwam more than paid for using Trample against everyone, even the Mick went down in 4 rounds (2 successful hits and 2 misses with Rhino).

Thanks for the help, everyone!

Mana Yachanichu

I have been using the kid - I am sure a wolf would be better but I don't really have a source of PP. I suppose I can look harder for one though. And I will put my remaining skill points in Trample.
