Topics

Here i will bring attention to upcoming/planned events (note that Vorspires invasion was a suprise event, also i have no part at all in it, so dont ask me about it)

However, on to the topic, i will put up shedules to events (staff made, so not automatic duuh)
So everyone can plan their weekend in, i will try make it so it fits for everyone.

Also random polls etc i want answered will be put here aswell, its Noll's little corner by other means :3

Serenitys Library House will be put up for auction.
All the things inside now will be included in the sale itself.

Rules: The new owner will keep the houseplot as a library location, open for the public.
So it still serves as a helping spot for people looking for a rune etc.
(And you might think, i bhought it, and look, i can take all the runebooks to my other house in felucca house plot?.. well, these are the rules, you know em.. but the thing you should keep in mind, i remember em!)

Im not sure if this auction will be gold only, or not...
But add your thought aswell in a reply.
But ill start the bidding price at 100,000,000 Gold (100 million gold)

edit: reply here for your current offer, dont want to get flooded with pms and auto emails =P

edit2: you will keep everything in the house, just as long as it serves as a library for players, the rest you may do as you wishes for. The house itself contains sh**loads of bods, nets, sos etc and alot of other stuffs, i wont mention anything more about the content.

edit3: after a misunderstanding the current highest bid is now 100m gold.

Ok, even i as a none-playing staff member got ideas sometimes..

Started figuring out about xml spawners etc etc. (they are the one controlling the auto-pvp/pvm events)

This morning i had a little idea, but so far it wont be done in a great while.

BUT, i want to know if players would enjoy this idea and prob. not get bored of it quickly etc.
So vote how "cool" this idea is, and if the needs/wishes are there, it might be created ^^.

This is ofc. without talking to any of the devs and king kong himself, and even if all vote 10s it might not be done.. but hopefully will if it aces!

~Battle Royale~
a "PvP" automatic event, maybe once or twice a day, takes a maximum of 60 minutes to do.

A really huge area is needed, with different zones. I will explain this to those that havnt seen the movies, so all can understand.

-You will enter with only random clothings that offers no protection
-You will enter with only 1 random item that might help you survive
-This is a free-for-all event, pvp/survivor event, in prevention of letting people gang up, names,titles will be removed (temporary), everyone gets turned into a human male/female randomly, and you will not be able to speak/party or even guild chat. If possible you wont even be able to open up the other guys paperdoll.
-Everyone will look the same, have nothing for name, so hopefully it wont even show up in journal when you get near a person.
-Last man standing
-Hunger/thirst & Sleep will be a big role in this, also possible weather scenarios etc.
-Will take up to 1 hour or so, so a real long event (could possible take less time, but near 60min mark, a special trigger will make the last survivors finish it up)

***

example:
10 players playing it.
They all start at random places, with a random tool/weapon (not a 100/100 durability katana, but a very fragile or weak weapon, so everyone gets a chanse, even if someone gets a melee weapon, more examples of the random item will be furthur down.)

You will need to eat something each ~5 min, or you will slowly start dropping strength (makes you weaker and have less hp)
You will need to sleep for ~2-3min each 20 min. (you can decide to when you are going to sleep, sleeping to early might be a tactics of knocking out people while they are sleeping, but maybe req. an extra 10-20 seconds to "fall asleep"
Being tired drains your stamina, makes you sluggish and somewhat easily defeated, some of the things you do on the battlefield might fail in your hands, and damage you (your tired and trying to make a fire, you might burn your hands etc.)
Also when you sleep, to make it interesting, a big black gump, covers all your screen, with only a timer on.

The 10 players needs to survive, but also be the last man standing, and after set amount of time, 1 or more areazone(s) will be "purged" , random explosions(or instant kill) will occur during this time, in that particular areazone. (a warning message will go out for all)

Dropzones will also occur at random locations, pre-warned in a message to everyone playing. (could contain just food, maybe 1 bandage, or some other useful item.) (these moments are dangerous since all players would like that package, and gain the upper hand.)

Tils the end, when around 50? minutes has gone, remaining players can only exists in 1 zone, and must kill each other, or there is a draw and noone wins (everyone is killed) at the 60 min mark

Some items might be gathered in the wild, a few animals might spawn, there could be fresh and saltwater available to players, drinking salt water might hurt you a bit.
(Since you wont have any real tools at all, a gump containing "Pick resources, drink, commit suicide,sleep and possible other commands)

*****

The random items?
(everyone starts with normal cloths, and maybe 1 ration of food)
Well i only thought of a few:

-a granade (medium-high damage, one shot only)
-a blowgun containing 1 to a few shots (depending on damage, and chanses of hitting)
-a bottle/vial of poison (being to able to instant? kill someone in their sleep, or poison a small fresh water lake, for medium damage to players that drinks it.)
-one or a few bandages
-extra rations of food (perhaps enough to finish the whole ordeal)
-a fishing rod
-a weak club/weapon, wont last long, but prob. long enough to kill someone, just a bit better damage then fist-melee
-a big rock (throw for low-medium damage, or used to instant kill a sleeping player (smash their heads in))
-a vibration-sensor alarm clock (will warn/wake up players that are sleeping when another player is coming near)
-a trap device (place out one or a few traps, that will do medium damage and stun players, possible self-trigger)
-a camo-sleeping bag, be hidden when you sleep(other players might still stumble upon the exact spot you are sleeping, and you will be revealed, but also awake)


The list could be made really long, and some items might not bring you that super amount of upper-hand, but its all about tactics sometimes.

If possible, skills and stats will be different during the time of the event. So its a fair event for everyone)
Spectators in form of ghosts wont be allowed (when you die, you will be teleported and alive, and you wont know what happends in the zones (to lessen the chanse of ganging up).
Still possible to wrestle players, and perhaps a chanse of strangling a sleeping player to death, but somewhat low chanse and the sleeping player still can fight back if it fails (recently had food, and well slept increases the chanses of instant killing a sleeping player with no special item, but maybe a max 40%?, but this all is still in the idea stage)

Rewards:? Well, there might be a timed reward, everyone gets a battleroyale coin each 10 min (given after event), and winner gets more(could be turned in for deco items or something?, perhaps a piece of armor/weapon is rewarded each week/month to top survivor.)

You may add ideas to this, since i just thought about this today.
But vote if this seems to be a fun addon to this server, and vote depending on how much you would like this to be added, and if you would compete alot in it)

'Nuff said..

With the help of Xeen, i might get that badass event started faster, but i dunno when!
A quick poll for players, even tho i kinda guess what the answer will be =P

You report a exploit to me, every exploit is worth some points (according to me, depending on what type of bosses etc u can exploit there and etc etc)

What you should report:
-Practicly safe spots/completly safe spots (teleport to a safe spot, or into a very narrow corner, guarded by pet for example)
-ways of obtaining items/gold/equiptment that was not meant to be gathered that way?
-Ways of exploiting ingame commands for example.

How you should report it:
If you can, show me ingame. Otherwise as detailed as u can, hopefully a printscreen, since explaining about a area could be impossible with just text.
Pm on forums, or page ingame.. dont want to be spammed with alot of pms ingame ^^,

edit2: You should prob. PM me these exploits first on the forums, due to i cant be online all the time, and first come, first serve should be able to work here. As in you are the first one to report the same exploit, and u get those points.

Edit3: PM'ing me ingame about exploits will most likely result in a negative point =P


What you could get from this?

Well, depends on how long my leash can be set for this, but im thinking about either a sash..
Who wouldnt want a sash with a special color, saying "Thanks for being the biggest snitch"
Or something like that.
Perhaps a remade metalshield, turned into a lantern. I dont know? Who knows? Will we see when its done? Probably!

How do i know who won?/how do i win?
Well, basicly u could say, the more exploits, the better the ranking.. But that would be unfair for those
who shows me only easy bosses, or areas u barely gain something from using the exploit.
Keep in mind, that worthless exploits will not be rewarded, but i judge whats worthless or not ^^,
If you do complain over my rating, i can add negative numbers, heck even imaginary numbers if that rocks your world.

Edit: The Ranking points is the only think that i will take accountance for, a draw will result in a competition ingame, and dont worry.. it wont be about who wins a pvp fight etc :3
The number of exploits is only shown, so players can see mostly for fun, how many exploits that person has handed in. (And get a clue why certain areas cant be exploited anymore and who should get that ass-whoppin from your monster beaten body!)

------------Ranking so far-----------
1.Catman (19 points, 3 exploits)
2.d35tr0y (7 points, 1 exploit)

Honorable mentions to a anon. exploit teller. (otherwise somewhere around 21 points, 3 exploits)

NollKoll here, just wanted to introduce myself to some of them who havnt met me ingame yet.
Since alot of people mix me up with konstantine, i can say that im not konstantine.

Im a brand new GM on this server(have not been a player on this server)

I have known vorspire along time, from he were a annoying little player that took a liking to me killing him with the GM kill command and jailing him.

My skills in UO is a bit rusty, so please bear with me the upcoming weeks/months tils i get up-to-date with the new stuff uo has implemented, hopefully im able to help you as much as i can.

On a side note, i take a very little interest in asskissers and beggers, those could get a straight ticket to jail.
