See what happens when I voice my anger in the forums...Now we have a new message, possibly clue to ponder.

My best guesses are once the corrupted units return to Audrey she'll attack and it'll be swift and ruinous or the FT lied the whole time and I have to track her down and slaughter her to get the 3rd crafting research or another clue that'll show me how to find the research.

Where is the FT tonight and has anybody spotted corrupted units on the map walking back to Audrey?

What difference the new moon would make when the town is enshrouded in fog?
But the point is that something will now happen soon.
October 31st anyone?
All Hallows Eve.

Sorry to double post, but wanted to put the new message close to the old ones which Epidemic recently put together on page 5 of this thread. http://forum.illyriad.co.uk/player-tournament-dont-get-eaten_topic5767_page21.html is the original post.



An ashen-faced quartermaster reports in at Fry

Your quartermaster knocks quietly at the door of your study.

He looks perturbed, and you beckon him to speak.

"My liege... I don't know how to put this.

I know you entrusted us to protect those foul and corrupted tentacles deep within the city stores - a task we have not taken lightly.

However, my liege, they're... they're gone. Vanished."

He takes you to the stores to show you, and gestures to the once sturdy but now partially broken glass jars that held each tentacle in preserving fluid.

"See? They've been taken. We've searched the entire area, but it's been more difficult than expected to see anything at this late hour - the thief must've planned this for the New Moon tonight!"

The quartermaster continues to talk as you survey the area - but a sudden chill runs down your spine as you realise that the way the shattered fragments of glass have fallen would suggest that they were shattered from the inside of the jar.

"Anyway", says the quartermaster, "We'll continue our search through the night and at first light tomorrow, though, don't you worry - the entire guard is out looking for this foolish thief!"

You return to your study, deep in thought.

if i offered condolences, it was completely unintentional. if you were insulted by what i said...it's my assessment, you can disregard it if you like or read again what you posted and consider if it's really appropriate. i am mildly curious about the characteristics of "someone like me", but i suppose you'd better keep that to igm (for fear of the ban threats, etc...you know...).

no, that was the self-pitying part. i allow that you have sometimes been the victim of persecution. that doesn't excuse your tendency to paint yourself as one when you're not. it's not as though everyone else got the answer and you were left off the list. if you've already determined that the game makers haven't finished the mystery (as you state above), then you have no need of GM Rikoo's answer and have nothing to do until an announcement is made. if you haven't, then you're simply slinging accusations to provoke a response, which is pretty poor form. worse things have been said here, but if you're going to throw your tantrum in public then you invite the public to comment.

Then my question is:  What is happening with this quest?  Is it working properly and Epi et al have just not understood something or is is broken and going to be fixed?  Or broken and no fix planned?

All that is needed to satisfy most of us is a statement that the Quest is working properly.  Or its not and steps are being taken.  Or some other definite statement.

We have communicated. What he wants is more communication. Understandable, but getting off topic will only get his original thread locked. Again, if you have a complaint or want to ask a question, do it, but if any insults enter the mix (as his original post and others after contained) then the thread will be closed or the offense taken down.

And no, Epi, you are not constantly threatened with being banned. Don't be so dramatic. Stick to the topic and everything will be fine. :)

I do not agree with the way in which Epidemic phrased his complaint, but I completely agree with his anger.  Communication from the Dev's is all that is required but they fail at that minimal task.

perhaps not, but he does manage to say it in a particularly offensive and self-pitying fashion.

I guess one is considered offensive if one gets upset because one spends around 2 years trying to solve a mystery that the game makers haven't finished yet and haven't given an explanation why. I guess someone like you is used to that, but not I.

I guess I shouldn't be mad about being constantly threatened with being banned or having my messages deleted all the time or having petitions unanswered.
