Blackouts

Started by zeia, May 17, 2012, 02:54:02 AM

Please tell me I'm not the only one stupid enough to log on and attempt to contact someone without looking at current amount of stun.. to then realise, shit, I have 3.. and you blackout and have to sit there for ten minutes like.. I'm a douche.. >.< I swear it's happened several times to me now!
A staff member sends:
     "You can quit ooc - or if you want I can kill <character name>, that'd definitely reset it."

I've done in a couple times, though not since my first few weeks. One incident was particularly embarrassing/amusing, but it's too soon to talk about.

It's a relatively common occurance, really. I've seen it happen about once a fortnight or so of IRL time.

Vennant doesn't appear to age because he serves drinks at the speed of light. Now you know why there's no delay on the buy code in the Gaj.

Oh, I did the same all the time. Now I make sure to wait a few moments before quitting in order to be sure this wouldn't happen.

This tastes like ordinary meat.
There is nothing left now.

I've done this before.  With sponsored roles who really should know better.  :-\  I've Wayed myself out on everything from nobles to Lirathans due to some weird connection bugs, and the fact that sometimes for seemingly no reason, my commands don't get recognized by the MUD.

I pay really close attention to my stun because most of my characters totally judge characters who do it harsly. Especially important people and older people.
I've also used the blackouts on purpose and I'm sure many of us do.
Many times I've been below 3 and  stopped myself only to pray I don't get smacked upside the head!
I'm taking an indeterminate break from Armageddon for the foreseeable future and thereby am not available for mudsex.

Below 3? wtf. Never let that shit get below 70. Ever. No matter what you're doing. Especially climbing.

I don't climb, you don't take your stun down to hair raising danger levels. Don't hate. XOXOX

My Alienware keyboard lights up bright red when my health or stun points are below 50.
"When I was a fighting man, the kettle-drums they beat;
The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

I frequently end up with characters with like... 85 max stun, which then drops a bunch when in contact with someone.

It's awful.
All the world will be your enemy. When they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

Wow. I just won this thread.

It's late and I was distracted.

You cannot maintain your psionic contact.

Also, what is the point of the stop command if it doesn't remove your stack? -.-

And someone in the world has a very strong urge to go west.

100% more kanks too, amirite?

The arrow swift, the Gate is strong.

Hehe I do this often...never on purpose...the worst is when your flying...Though I haven't done that one in a few years. Nothing like waking up to a templar standing over you wondering why you fell out of the sky.  ;D
The sound of a thunderous explosion tears through the air and blasts waves of pressure ripple through the ground.

Looking northward, the rugged, stubble-bearded templar asks you, in sirihish:
     "Well... I think it worked...?"

Some people wont know you can do that. Might be best to edit.
