You level a maar crossbow at the fellow.

Fellow sees:
The dude with a crossbow levels a maar crossbow at you. If you move, he'll shoot.

Yes.

For some reason, the request reply links don't seem to work anymore. They only seem to link to a request review, but without reply option (or if there is, I haven't found it). It would be nifty if this was working again.

In the request history, you have to click the request (in the list) that you want to respond to, then click the magnifying glass icon that corresponds to a staff reply towards the bottom, then click "Reply".

However, if you log into the request tool first then click the link in the e-mail, you can skip all those steps.

Hope that helps.

It helped. I thought the magnifying glass was to view the reply in question, not to respond to it. The link sent in email didn't take me to the reply form anymore lately, only to the request itself.

Yes.

If he passes an agility-defense check:
aim crossbow fellow
You level a maar crossbow at the fellow, but he dives out of the way!
(combat ensues)

I could definitely get into that.

The tall, muscular man makes a strange sound as you drive an obsidian halfsword between his ribs.  Congratulations, you are now engaged to the tall, muscular man!

I tripped and Fale down my stairs. Drink milk and you'll grow Uaptal. I know this guy from the state of Tenneshi. This house will go up Borsail tomorrow. I gave my book to him Nenyuk it back again. I hired this guy golfing to Kadius around for a while.

QuoteThese footpads are made of a dark, but very soft, leather, that are worn
upon the feet, laced up to fit tightly around the mid shin.  They appear to
offer very little in protection, but they are padded so as to make a minimal
amount of noise.

I really wish people would stop assuming if someone wears footpads, that they are an assassin or thief or burglar.

Many NPCs all across both city-states wear footpads. And they are just good soft leather up-to-your shin boots.

I always pictured this, or at least close:
"Don't take life too seriously, nobody ever makes it out alive anyway."

Let me guess, your assassin or thief got called out for wearing footpads?

Nope. I never wear footpads for this reason.
I just think its a waste having a item no one ever wants to use for this reason.

So no need for the pop shot. I've been playing long enough not to post something like this if it was done ICly recently to me. Giving me away.
"Don't take life too seriously, nobody ever makes it out alive anyway."

Protip:  keep the footpads, the dark cloak, and the longknives in your pack until you need to use them.

More so common sense if you wanna use them. Not a protip.
The issue is its common sense on a OOC level not IC level.
Just a random thought of mine I had while bored. Spiraled a bit too much.


Back on topic:
Nothing at the moment. More a want to myself: Use tdesc more often BM0!
"Don't take life too seriously, nobody ever makes it out alive anyway."

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Tdesc for items. Srsly.

All those scraps of cloth (virtual scraps) and a tattered windcloak:

tdesc windcloak:

While the intact parts are in fairly good condition, the bottom cord or so is riddled with patches of ripped or otherwise missing fabric.

For certain mounts to perk up, and take notice of people moving a few rooms away. Like horses or dogs to IRL.


Right, Brytta?

He said "mounts."  Yes, I want this.
The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.
The heart is bold that looks on gold;
The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

That reminded me of another game I used to play, where certain characters could eventually get pet dogs. One of the things the dogs would do is start barking at anyone hiding in the room.

Hunting birds, Falcons, hawks so forth that pcs can buy in game as pets that when equipped increase a chance to see concealed beings. Cause they are trained hunters and have eyes like a Hawk, alerting with a squawk.

Yup. This sadly. Only reason I don't wanna see it.

More consistency with the haggle code.  It makes me want to jab my eyes out.

Quote
"Yes I will sell you X for the normal price that I usually sell it to you."

think Yay!

say Great.  I think I'd like a second one at the same price.

The shopkeeper yells in sirihish, "GET OUT OF MY SHOP YOU FUCKING MONSTER BEFORE I RIP YOUR INTESTINES OUT OF YOUR NOSE."

think Huh.  Well.  That's -one- way to run a business.

I especially enjoy it when they kick me out without giving any 'angry' warning message first. 

And as long as I'm wishing, could I please haggle for things in bulk?  When I have to buy 50 of X, it makes me want to jump off a cliff.
