We might be crashing, but really, compared to the last HRPT.. This is amazing. Where's all the lag? This is BEAUTIFUL!

lack of lag considering number of players=impressive

lack of information=boring

I have no idea what's happening--lots of people seem to be alluding that "something's happening" but no one's spilling the beans as to what.

I suppose as noob who's not in a cliche or a clan shouldn't expect to be included in the event, but I'd at least like to know what's going on.

I think you'll find out soon enough Guest. They wouldn't advertise it on TMS if it wasn't something involving most people ;)

Just keep your ears and eyes open. And possibly follow people :P

Don't worry about it.  Something will happen soon and everyone will know about it.  Generally the event 'starts' and a few people in the know start to orginize a response, and gather their forces.  It might also start at different places in different times.  Luir's outpost might already be a ball of fire while Allanak has seen nothing.  Don't worry.  I promise before the day is out, something is going to happen, and you are going to somehow be apart of it, even if it is just running around screaming and trying not to die.

Heh heh. I just realized that the who command has been disabled.

it's ironic. The mud can handle 131+ people emoting and walking. But it can't handle 131+ people typing who :P

a let down from the n00b perspective.  

I don't consider it the responsiblity of the admins to entertain me, but after five hours(!) of trying to find some sort of hook in which to join the story (or at least figure out more of what's going on) I've given up and left my character (who, according to score, I've been using for 24 hrs real playing time) to die in the desert.  

The people who did seem to know a little more about what was going on looked like they were having fun, so I'm guess this event is a successful one.

Anyway, chances are it's the last one I'll see.  I hate myself for whining, just venting a little cause I had high hopes for the entertainment value of this event.  I assume that the even more clueless noobs I saw ambling about were thinking something simliar.
Title: Hmm
Post by: Dakkon Black on November 02, 2003, 05:20:35 PM
Well, I can understand that this would suck if you had no idea where to go or what to do.

I dont think leaving him to die in the desert is a good call though. YOu should have travelled to a city. From what I understand you woulda found action at least somewhere.

I took the day off for this (and family, ok ok) , suffered the.. three, four crashes, died, and I just have to say, it was worth losing the $84 of pay for this.

I (heart) all of you.

The crashes were worth it.  The waiting was worth it and I love you all.

I feel bad for the other newbs who missed out though.  Cause this was like, whoa.

Whoa.

WHEE!

God damn it.  I just got back from my emergency and my neck of the world is utterly and completely empty.  Damn it.  I know I am missing something.

Guest, next time one of these rolls around, try to be closer to a population center.  And if you are in the population center, try to be somewhere that is a busy social gathering place.

I haven't been involved directly in anything whatsoever, but its been a blast just hearing all of the echoes.

Loot, loot, loot!

I'm not sure how people couldn't find the action, I just checked out the local rumors and zipped on over looking for a trail of corpses to follow. I knew I'd found the good stuff when I walked through three 'rooms' packed to the gills with dead bodies, each 'room' holding about 10-15 corpses each.

I just caught the tail end of the HRPT, but even that was good.

Good job all around.

I had a great time. Maybe because I found a way to get pulled into the action, but my char got to do some really neat stuff and watch the affects.  I

It was my first HRPT and I loved it.

Imms yall rock.

I died, so it sucked. Especially when you die from some uber PC walking around attacking people with no real emotes or reason or anything. Guess it was my hood.
