Vacation As I mentioned a while back, I finally got a bit of vacation. Two weeks off from work. I hoped to get spells done during that time, but that was not...
So my girlfriend "Tinkerbelle" was lost in the desert and my lvl 15 DelFuego swordsman was on his way to save her by killing the mean old Tiger. She pops up...
It has always been a part of the game and the punishment is right. I have killed my own characters many times because the target moves from the area just as I...
Laughing, sorry, really, I shouldn't laugh. I hit myself a few times before. I think it's built in the game that if you kill someone a lot lower level, you...
... Ouch. There should be a sign as you leave town: "Typing Shortcuts Kill. Type the full name, or accept the blame!" ... That's not a glitch. A little while...
... Why not pick character (and alt) names that do not start with the same letters as monsters. Any monster names start with Q, anyone? -- Robert "Exile In...
I was going to echo this very sentiment.. at this point it's like locking the barn door after the horse got away, so to speak.. but when I was a novice player...
Well thanks for responding. Thanks for the advice on what to type. Tinkerbelle was on the menu when I was wacking the tiger, she just popped up out of no where...
Hi, So, if one gets caught with the demon lord, how does one get out? Is he something that can be killed? What's the scoop on him? Thanks. Warm regards, ...
If you are a mage, you have to cast an "area of effect" type spell - you know, the type that hits everything in the room (including yourself) - over and over...
I assume your talking the deamon lord at the back of the lava lake. If so you kill all the imps that he sends your way, and 1 swing at him and he will give you...
Hi, Someone was playing after a while that knew how I could get out. I was afraid to hit the demon lord because I hit the giant snake many years ago and it...
Yeah, well, I wasn't smart and got my fire mage to fight them, and she got even less smart! *grin* So, now, she has to make up one level. It's a good thing...
9/11 It's been six years since thousands were killed in the World Trade Center attacks. Please take a moment to remember those who were lost and those who were...
Exile, you can't really pay 25k to restore levels, can you? were you just joking? Hmm, that would be kind of cool if it were true. *grin* Warm regards, ...
... A resurrection in the D&D game can cost that much, or more. A party member is slain, so you drag them back to town. Pay a priest a large "donation" for...
... Time to go get lost again in the Colossal Cave and its maze of twisty little passages, all alike... -- Robert "Exile In Paradise" Murphey Oh Dad! We're ALL...
Ha ha, wish I had a check for 25K. No, I thought you meant you can go back to town and offer 25 K to the church and get resurrected. I killed two of my...
Oh, not that anyone cares, grin, but I didn't hit them, I just didn't drink potions when I should have. I made the same mistake twice in 24 hours. That is...
... That's how it works in D&D, and it crossed my mind to add something like that to the on-line. I am still pondering how to do this in the tabletop game, and...
That would be really cool. Your table top game is like a card game, of sorts? That might not be accessible to me, probably, since it would be in print. I...
... Sort of. Its a book with rules and data for a group of people to sit around and share a story with, playing the role of adventurers in the Elemental...
If anyone wondered, I am not dead yet. This past weekend, despite the bureaucrazy's best efforts, I managed to complete my big work project for the year. This...
Hi, I noticed this evening that I cannot connect to Xroads. Is anyone else experiencing problems with that? Is the Telnet server down? Thanks. Warm regards,...
Hi, The server rebooted last night I mistakenly had another program starting before Xroads that was using the same network port. Everything is all fixed now,...
Howdy everyone! 2007 has been a great year for Crossroads, and I just wanted to take a few minutes to catch everyone up on where we are and where we're heading...
Q4 Implosion You know, I hate writing these parts where I say "sorry you haven't heard from me for months, because _insert excuse here_". Fourth quarter for...
