Fyrd Argentus 433 Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 There are many facets to this game. You have to listen to your feelings and decide which appeals to you the most, then follow it as far as it will take you. If a second facet jumps up and grabs you, then so be it. My analysis of the different facets that might appeal to a player.... Fighting Creature Collecting Witty chatter with friends over cake and tea Puzzles and quests - solving and building them - this may take the "party game" approach or the programming/coding direction Team building/sports - alliances Political machinations - like the current brew-ha-ha over training techniques and the mp3/february debates Alliance/lands politics - power struggles and balance Creative writing of poems, songs, stories Dress-up, formal serious role-play, rituals Trying to get inside Mur's head, spiritual symbology Paying back to the game - a functional role like LHO, newspaper, etc. Trading - buying and selling stuff for profit Fighting for truth and justice if you think some group (like mp3's, for instance) is being mistreated. Land exploration - seeing if you can get into every corner of MD eventually Personal vendettas against people you think are evil or stupid Playing the part of Santa Claus/Easter Bunny/Tooth Fairy to give others joy What else have I missed? Debating just for fun (thanks Kafuuka) If you can find your heart, I and many others will help you figure out how to chase after it. Don't give up until you've considered and rejected everything on this list.... Kaya, Tarquinus, J-D and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seigheart 968 Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 My recent favourite is going through those fascinating Logs. I find it extremely entertaining to pour over them, and see what people are up to, what things they are doing, and who has what creatures now.

Grido 592 Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 Any particular reason this is in LS > Community Events? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fyrd Argentus 433 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) It started life as a response to some new player complaining that there was nothing to do. I moved it here last year, trying to build up a community events bulletin board, courtesy of Legend Speakers. That has obviously not reached critical mass for various reasons. Is there a better place for this advice? Edited June 14, 2012 by Fyrd Argentus Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fyrd Argentus 433 Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 You're welcome to copy my list, add to it comments of others, change it around, re-title, whatever, and repost wherever, official or unofficial, you'd like. I don't want to go backwards in my attempt to build up the Legend Speaker's publication kiosk, however, so leave this thread here. There have been enough slurs lately about alliances not doing anything. Phantom Orchid, Aelis, J-D and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
