― Nhex, Friday, 5 August 2011 23:42 (fourteen years ago)
we're back
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Friday, 12 August 2011 03:09 (fourteen years ago)

― Mordy, Friday, 12 August 2011 03:10 (fourteen years ago)
no. still not yet.

Oh man grinding elements eats energy like a motherfucker
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Friday, 12 August 2011 05:47 (fourteen years ago)
I refuse to do grinding or mining or anything like that. I am strictly a making food and queuing for papers guy.

I am finally on this thing! And I've already died once, cz my phone rang just as I'd gone in into somewhere cold, and I didn't realise that even though I was only on the welcome screen the cold was draining my energy and mood. Bummer, cz I had an almost full set of both before that.

you'll have a full set when you get back; everybody refills daily.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Friday, 12 August 2011 12:08 (fourteen years ago)
Oh, that's good to know. Thanks!
Do I need a patch I can call my own to plant things, or can I plant things in public areas? I met a seed-seller but didn't know if there was any point buying any.
― the ascent of nyan (a passing spacecadet), Friday, 12 August 2011 12:15 (fourteen years ago)
best thing about this game atm is just figuring all that stuff out. take your time.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Friday, 12 August 2011 12:16 (fourteen years ago)
Fair enough!
― the ascent of nyan (a passing spacecadet), Friday, 12 August 2011 12:43 (fourteen years ago)
but on the pragmatic tip to answer your question: yes to all your questions.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Friday, 12 August 2011 13:06 (fourteen years ago)
little bored atm - started learning Teleportation V, won't be done until Monday, and I finished all my outstanding quests
― Nhex, Sunday, 14 August 2011 00:22 (fourteen years ago)
stop playing at work forks
― Nhex, Monday, 15 August 2011 17:48 (fourteen years ago)
called in sick today. am sick. am glitching.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Monday, 15 August 2011 18:08 (fourteen years ago)
Learned how to make awesome stew!
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Monday, 15 August 2011 18:10 (fourteen years ago)
Gonna give up my 740 Gregarious Towers apt. soon - if anyone wants it, let me know, we can set up a thing where I sell it and you can snatch it up right away.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 11:46 (fourteen years ago)
Nhex, have you worked on any of the street-building projects? They're kind of fun, but you've gotta be fairly high level to make an impact.
― the widening gyre (remy bean), Tuesday, 16 August 2011 11:48 (fourteen years ago)
Yeah, actually did one last night! yeah, its tough, you need level IV/level V skills of everything. The key it seems to is to prepare beforehand, getting lots of raw materials and food ready. Of course, I didn't come anywhere near the the Top 5, but it was still fun to see so many people come together and work on the same project at once.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 12:20 (fourteen years ago)
i'm about to try to buy one of those 50k aptmts.got a long way to go before i'm level iv/v skills on everything
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 16 August 2011 21:54 (fourteen years ago)
well, not everything at once - there are plenty of things you can do at low level - but the bulk of it, you need a specific level V skill to help, like Gardening V, Medition V, etc. if you have even one of those skills, it's worth getting in on it
― Nhex, Tuesday, 16 August 2011 22:12 (fourteen years ago)
meditation V? there's a meditation V?
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 August 2011 03:23 (fourteen years ago)
nope, just buggin
― Nhex, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 04:42 (fourteen years ago)
you got me excited!
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 August 2011 12:17 (fourteen years ago)
dudes i really love all the alchemy stuff in this game, making elements and compounds etc, def going to be my focus when it resets
history of the rook museum sequence gives some perspective on where the game is headed i think - everybody else already do that quest?
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Wednesday, 17 August 2011 17:00 (fourteen years ago)
yeah it was pretty cool
my favorite is still a split between the firefly whistling and the gwendoline quest
― Nhex, Wednesday, 17 August 2011 17:44 (fourteen years ago)
The Rook thing blew my gourd, excited for when this gets aggrohave not done gwendoline yet. I gather that the beta has content basically out to the point where you've maxed out all extant skills?I really want that big mcmansion.
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 August 2011 18:38 (fourteen years ago)
can I get in on this poxy fule group? my username is 'turd burglar'
― strongly recommend. unless you're a bitch (mayor jingleberries), Thursday, 18 August 2011 00:04 (fourteen years ago)
i think you have to friend one of us first in-game, then someone can invite you in
xp there do seem to be a bunch of skills arbitrarily stopped (the ones which require "The Impossible Achievement"
yeah, i was gonna go for a 30K house, but thought, wtf - might as well go for it all - 5 PATCHES, baby
― Nhex, Thursday, 18 August 2011 01:12 (fourteen years ago)
Is it incredibly sad that I've named all the animals in my back garden after favourite musicians?
― emil.y, Thursday, 18 August 2011 01:27 (fourteen years ago)
nah, that's pretty awesome. tbh just the fact that you have animals and a garden is pretty cool, all i have is some crappy rubies no one will buy.
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 18 August 2011 01:29 (fourteen years ago)
Donate them to the giants. You get a fair amount of XP and favour for the gems found while mining.
― emil.y, Thursday, 18 August 2011 01:32 (fourteen years ago)
Current test ends today - queue up that skill!
― Nhex, Thursday, 18 August 2011 11:55 (fourteen years ago)
when does the test end?
― DALEKS OF GOD (DJP), Thursday, 18 August 2011 13:30 (fourteen years ago)
(like how much time is left?)
― DALEKS OF GOD (DJP), Thursday, 18 August 2011 13:31 (fourteen years ago)
don't know, but last time it was noon PST
― Nhex, Thursday, 18 August 2011 14:48 (fourteen years ago)
Someone in the forums says about 5pm PDT, which seems to be based on this tweet:
playglitch Glitch, the gameOnly ~24 hours left in this test! We close Thursday afternoon-ish PST - there will be in-game notifications for the exact closing time.17 hours ago
so basically I dunno
I am away this weekend so I guess this is good timing (as long as I can get my current short skill learnt in time to queue up a long skill next)
― the ascent of nyan (a passing spacecadet), Thursday, 18 August 2011 14:55 (fourteen years ago)
thanks for the heads up. just queued animal kinship vii
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:31 (fourteen years ago)
ah crap, all of my skill trees are blocked by needing to spend emblems of whoever and i am at work and should be doing stuff :(
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:36 (fourteen years ago)
there's a greasemonkey script somewhere that'll allow you to cue-up 5-10 skills in advance
― a long time ago i used to be snush (remy bean), Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:37 (fourteen years ago)
oooooo dangerous
― I'm a nerd and nerdy things happened (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:37 (fourteen years ago)
i'm done playing this until it reopens. i don't want to exhaust everything fun to do.
― Mordy, Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:56 (fourteen years ago)
learned ez cooking 1 just because it was there
― I dream of vodka sandwich (jjjusten), Thursday, 18 August 2011 16:05 (fourteen years ago)
idk maybe i have too much faith in these dudes but i am pretty optimistic that they are going to roll out some fairly awesome stuff on the regular, so im going to keep cracking away - also this beta has def focused my ideas about what i would concentrate on in the next go around - def didnt need quite so much teleportation, def should have gone deep earlier on mining/refining/etc. i dont think cooking or gardening are ever going to really grab me tbh
