I honestly can't believe people care this much about 17 year old elf sim. Like it literally is causing this guy to lose sleep at night.

YIKES

Wow, you are so right! I should also tell the NFL that American Football was invented in 1869 and they should stop acting like it's relevant. Way too many people have lost sleep over that game.

This is a virtual world pal. You need to learn the difference between real life and 1000 player pixelquest

I didn't realize I was speaking to a bot. I assumed you and every other player on this server existed in the real world.

This is a game that over a thousand actual people enjoy a day. Doesn't matter when Cheerios were invented, if you piss in the bowl everyone is eating from you are still being a jerk to a thousand different people.

It's just yet another frustrating 'we don't give a fuck' staff decision [You must be logged in to view images.

If Sirken has specifically said that nothing will happen, then we should all just kill Dain 50x a week <shrug>

When people start farming Dain on respawn then I think we can declare this a problem. Right now I don't see a problem.

I don't disagree with you. It's a hypothetical situation that has literally never played out. Failed ring wars have occured for these reasons:

CSG's very early first attempt on the war
Rampage + Taken getting to 3rd wave and failing
Taken + Forsaken + Asgard getting to 3rd wave and failing
Bregan De Aerth getting to 3rd wave and failing
Random guy purposefully failing to either sell a Ring 9 MQ

These are literally the only reasons the war has failed on P99. Not one of them has been done with the goal of spawning a Dain. They've all either been legitimate attempts at wars, or random dudes selling Ring 9 MQs who have no intent in killing the Dain.

Now... This could change if all of a sudden Sirken says it's totally cool to fail the war with the intent of spawning a Dain. I was in and out during his stream, I don't know what exactly he said when Nemce brought it up to him.

But for the time being... Yea it's really not a concern just a hypothetical problem.

I told him that it was previously stated on the forums that killing that dain on a failed ring war was an exploit. That killing ANY Dain was against the rules and since it refreshes the timer it means you cannot kill Dain at all legally on this server because of this. I asked him to allow for the Dains that are spawned on a failed ring war to be given the okay until it is fixed. It needs to be a legitimate attempt, obviously. I clarified that very clearly off stream. He promised to have it in writing.

PS: until it is in writing, I'd consider this just chit chat.

why does it "obviously" have to be a legit attempt? Who decides the legitimacy of the attempt? Who is going to police this legitimacy?

Hey, give us the same failcredit that you did the others. We made it a good ways into Wave 3, too. Kept it going 29 mins after it started before we succumbed...
