Interesting that some offensive spells are showing up - martial imagination etc

I think that's to fight in the oncoming Rook war.

hey forks, sorry to bug you on your birthday (and when you're doing me a favor!) but were you able to send an invite? i get the feeling everyone is making spinach cupcakes and i want to provide!
― future events are now current events (Z S), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 01:36 (twelve years ago) link
zs, you have to connect through facebook on the signup pagethen i can see you and add you
― generous doler out of lollies (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 12:18 (twelve years ago) link
i have you as a friend now, but it doesn't see you as wanting to join
and thanks for birthday wishes!
― generous doler out of lollies (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 12:19 (twelve years ago) link
oh, duh! that makes sense. alright, i'll try to get on later tonight then. thanks!

reconsidering my decision to try out a million different skills when the next reset happens - it's cool to try out stuff, but you end up having to carry so many different objects, and it's hard to get very far unless you really focus on stuff
like maybe next time i'll just do animal husbandry OR plants/soil, but not both. the cooking stuff spirals crazy out of control
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:35 (twelve years ago) link
the crops and animal stuff seems more suited to solo play than mining/bog harvesting/etc., it seems
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:36 (twelve years ago) link
once you get like eight or nine bigger bags and toolboxes, that problem goes away.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:44 (twelve years ago) link
i like being a cook
i also like just giving stuff away to random people. It's a good game for good karma.Has anyone died yet? I'm tempted to do it just to see what happens but I'm a little nervous about it. I hear you have to get out of hell?
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:45 (twelve years ago) link
I hear you have to get out of hell?
not until you give satan a beelzebub BLT!
this game is so built up in my mind that i'm confident i can make a beelzebub BLT
― future events are now current events (Z S), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:47 (twelve years ago) link
i almost died thanks to not paying any attention one day
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:48 (twelve years ago) link
Beelzebub BLT quest SOUNDS like something you'd find in this quest.ZS, go to the glitch page and "share on facebook" or whatever so i can add you already.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:54 (twelve years ago) link
i'm at work and the glitch page is blocked.
― future events are now current events (Z S), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:58 (twelve years ago) link
i've died a bunch of times, usually crafting something and not watching my energy meter. you end up in hell and have to squish grapes to get out. yup
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:59 (twelve years ago) link
apparently someone tagged the page as "potentially not tedious and bureaucratic", so it's automatically blocked
― future events are now current events (Z S), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 18:59 (twelve years ago) link
bummer. probably one of the lizard people from the office of bureaucracy.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
again, if peeps go to visit http://glitch.com/fb/ and are friends with me on fb i have 3 additional invites to hand out
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Wednesday, 3 August 2011 22:28 (twelve years ago) link
i just did the facebook thing, hopefully i'm showing up now
― future events are now current events (Z S), Thursday, 4 August 2011 03:15 (twelve years ago) link
wow do you have good timing! chk yer email or whatever
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Thursday, 4 August 2011 03:18 (twelve years ago) link
good lord this is addicting

welcome to our world
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 4 August 2011 04:20 (twelve years ago) link
ugh this game sounds horrible, sorry.
― Summer Slam! (Ste), Thursday, 4 August 2011 08:21 (twelve years ago) link
ur forgiven. now go in peace.
― Mordy, Thursday, 4 August 2011 12:10 (twelve years ago) link
mining and smelting and grinding and making elements holy crap this game
btw i am about to learn the teleport level where i can summon you against your will, but i promise to only do this to yall if i think it will be really funny it is essential to the game.
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Thursday, 4 August 2011 16:45 (twelve years ago) link
i have like a million quests to do but i just wanna mine and mine and mine
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 4 August 2011 16:52 (twelve years ago) link
i'm learning levitationand just got that attack thing
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 4 August 2011 16:54 (twelve years ago) link
I dunno if this is useful to any of you, but I've found wandering around the ancestral lands you get much better quality quoins (for instance, ~60xp over the usual ~6), so it's worth doing that at least once a day to stock up. Though the bandits can be annoying.
I'm still uncertain as to whether I'll be prepared to start over again come reset, but I've definitely been enjoying taking part so far. I want to start learning the engineering stuff but I'm too tempted by the attack skill.
― emil.y, Thursday, 4 August 2011 17:20 (twelve years ago) link
wait what there are bandits
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Thursday, 4 August 2011 17:22 (twelve years ago) link
i haven't even cooked anything yet! i'm gonna water the fuck out of a bunch of trees before i venture anywhere with bandits.
― future events are now current events (Z S), Thursday, 4 August 2011 17:25 (twelve years ago) link
There are bandits! They are cute little things, but they want your stuff. You can fairly easily outrun them or jump over them but I've been in places where four of them appear at once, and that makes it hard.
