I like jason's suggestions with the classical empire status.. that'd be cool.

[Tokzic]

Like I said, I really think we should have an election for leader. It may be just a title, but it's the title, right?

To be honest, I can see everyone who has mentioned a desire to be leader in the position. I haven't gone inactive once since I started, and from what I can tell, neither have the other candidates.

We could always do a Post Your Favourite Leader/Ranks Suggestion Omega Plz Let Live thread to seperate that from the trivial "I leveled up" and "have I screwed up my skills?" talk. In fact, unless there are no other suggestions, I say we do that right now.

[PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR]

I'm really liking this route...
Arbiter - Such a sweet sounding name too. I love it.
Imperator - Another name for Commander. These are people second in command.
Patrician - Part of the elite.
Plebian - Normal body of the government.
Peasant - Bottom class

These are extremely cool and have meaning behind them.

I really like all of them except Peasants/Serfs. Those aren't bad, but I think we could do better. The Greek Alphabet would also be cool, but I like where banditcom is heading with this more.

Now I'm kinda lost as to what the names mean exactly because I've skipped a lot on the last few pages, so I doubt that I'd be in this as of right now..

I just downloaded it and I'm playing it now. I've played it before though. It's fun.I'll post a screen shot soon enough.

[Tokzic]

Okay, so we here's what we've got so far:

People that Want to be Leader

Niikos
Banditcom/Pat
YingYangTwin

Possible Hierarchies

Alpha - Beta - Gamma - Omega - Subordinate (Tokzic)
Arbiter - Imperator - Patrician - Plebian - Peasant/Serf (Banditcom)
STFU In Chief - ROFLPWN General - ZOMGLOL Admiral - WTFBOMB Sergeant - LOLLERSKATES Private (Verrtucker)
AA - A - B - C - D (EB)
Leader - 1st Class - 2nd Class - 3rd Class - Newbie (Afro)
Oni - Heavy - Standard - Light - Beginner (EB again)
Admin - Moderator - Chat Mod - Normal User - Moogy (EB has lots of ideas)

Due date to nominate yourself for leader and/or put in hierarchy ideas and/or suggest other things that should be put to vote is Friday at 4pm EST, when the Big Maple Story Guild Vote topic will be made. Voting will last the weekend and end at 4pm EST. Every voter will vote for first and second choice in every catergory. Upon a tie in first choices, the one with the most second choices will win. Fair?

[banditcom]

Hell, why not have them be AA, A, B, C, D? That relates to FFR, makes sense, and is easy to remember.

How? Just in R2, and no one plays that. There are no AAAs, etc in the actual FFR game.

Other than me, I'd say Afrobean is the only person who is on more often (I don't count bandit because he's only REALLY on half the time that he's on =P).

In the end, it doesn't really matter because the leader doesn't really do anything, but I dunno. Having multiple people able to access the leader account seems a little bit.....no.

Actually, I personally play more than both you and Afro. And that's something I don't want to brag about...

And funny thing... You were all for me being a leader when you had believed that there was a 100 fame requirement (which it seems there isn't anymore).

I personally wouldn't want a leader who makes rash decisions like that.

[Verruckter]

Haha, It's funny you even put my suggestion since it wasen't really serious.

EDIT: Anyone else notice it wasen't just one update, but MANY updates coming soon?

You've waited.




You've asked for it.





And now...





...you're about to get it.





Big update>>>>>s<<<< coming soon...





Play hard.

[banditcom]

I'm close to sticking my character in my av as well.. rofl.. It's entertaining...

Pat and I are used to talking and discussing many aspects about the game. Only he and I will be playing on my guy from now on. Robby used to go on sometimes but I think he's going to focus on his character(s) and I think it's for the better.

I 100% trust both of them. And they know each other in real life, so there is no problem with Robby knowing my pass. Plus if one ever screwed me over, I know the other would go after them. But I have never had any worries about that.

You guys really don't understand how much work it takes to share an account. Oh, and recall that I threw FFR night together. Look how successful that was. So many people showed up.

And Noah, doesn't Adele know how to get into your account (and vice versa)?

[Squeek]

Guys, Falcon isn't doing so badly. If he maxes out MP Increase now, he's fine. Assuming he hasn't put any points into MP that is. The difference isn't exponential; it's numerical. The gap between his MP and your MP will always be the same once he has it maxed.

MP is totally useless for me anyway... I only have as much as I have for Magic Guard purposes. I try to avoid using Magic Guard as much as possible.

With regards to keys: There's no right or wrong way to use keys. It's your personal preference. My keyboard's media player controls prevent me from hotkeying Q, R, P, S, J, C, and B. If I use the other extra keys at the top of the keyboard, I don't even KNOW what those are hotkeyed to. I just know they are something. So, if I Pause/Play, Backtrack, Forwardtrack, Stop, Mute, Volume Up, or Volume Down, I hit one of those keys. Therefore, I cannot put anything on those keys. Imagine my surprise when I found out the last one - B. I had Mystic Door on that one. That was a fun skill to cast three times in a row.

And EB, my Magic Guard is as far away from every other of my hotkeys as possible: 8. I used to have it on the hyphen, but after I accidentally hit it twice, I put an end to that.

~Squeek

PS - Verr, even I know it's more than just Guilds. A friend of mine (and the highest-leveled person in the game) told me they put up the patch information (ftp://download.nexon.co.kr/maple/map...tice/00016.txt) for a while. He happened to see it before they took it down again. 80 items were in it. Now either he's playing a trick on his entire buddy list or we're getting 80 drops.

Obviously, more CS stuff as well. Maybe Ludi. DEFINITELY a new interface (and it looks awesome). Maybe gamefixes (critical in pink, etc)

O dam, new interface? Awesome!

[banditcom]

I know it's preference. And I knew that about your keyboard. But, rofl @ the mystic door. XD

And, I was going to comment on Falcon as well. He's doing ok. He won't have as much MP but he'll be fine. :S Like Squeek said, if it concerned points that could have been put into int, then yea..

The MSEA interface is pretty cool.. I like it, especially how the buddy/party/guild list is set-up. I'm excited for the critical patch. I'm HOPING for cool pets like a mini-cargo, etc, along with item pouch.

[Afrobean]

First of all, there are many days where I am quite literally on for the majority of the waking day. That means somewhere around 8 hours. And I can't idle like some people, so if I'm on, I'm actually on (well I do afk from time to time, but I'm back before my red bean soup wears off and I die). In fact, if I didn't have school, I'd probably play about 8 hours everyday. Well... until the exp began to slow down a lot, then I'd probably only play like 4 hours per day. Yea, I'm a loser. What're you gonna do about it? I would get out and have fun with my friends, but all my I really do with my friends is skateboard and winter+wetness=no skating.

Secondly, I agree with Noah. I'd rather not have a shared account as the leader.

Thirdly:

Oh, and recall that I threw FFR night together. Look how successful that was. So many people showed up.

Actually, that was a bit of a failure to be honest. It would have been better if it had just been 6 of us in one party. Not only that, but we didn't have MM timed, and most of us wanted to see rog, but a few people who would be key to actually trying to fight the rog decided to stay behind at macis. In short, it was crowded and not as planned out as something with that many people should have been.

Fourthly:

And Noah, doesn't Adele know how to get into your account (and vice versa)?

It's a completely different thing if you know the person in real life and the only playing of each others characters takes place in the other person's presence or at their house or something like that.

Fifthly, honestly, I have no interest in being the leader outside of the title. Maybe what we should do is make an account called "FFRleader" or something, and make that the leader. That would eliminate any bickering. If not something like that, though, I would prefer myself or noah to be leader, and actually, Oni as leader wouldn't bother me either.

Sixthly, actually, whoever is running the voting thing, add me in there for leader. I'd like to see how well of a chance I have, even though it'll probably end up being someone else.

Seventhly, (LOL WHERE I AM GETTING THIS CRAP) I'd be glad if they would add the criticals and the glove hand. That would be great. Level 80 items I don't care about really, but if anything, it would lower the gear I'll be buying in about 14 levels, right? That'd be cool I guess, but I've said it before and I'll say it again: I want people outta coolies, so what I'm really interested in is ludi.

[ghost_of_eb]

And Noah, doesn't Adele know how to get into your account (and vice versa)?

Yeah, but I know her IRL and can track her down. Also, her knowing how to get into my MS account also means she knows how to get into my school account and she could do much worse things than just mess up my MS characters or screw with the guild. I'd rather not be leader, because then people would bug me, I was just saying that whoever is on and available the most should do it. You definitely qualify there, if you and Pat are included in online time. However, I'd say that as far as per person goes, Chris prolly spends the most time, with me coming in second. We're all pretty close, though.

And the reason I was sort of against you doing it is because I know Robby and Pat have both done, well, bad things with your account. When you first started sharing and Pat kept being retarded about trades, plus the tobis or whatever that Robby found and took. If there is a 100 fame req, you'll have to lead, and if you're sure we can all trust Robby and Pat then it's probably for the best, but I'm just being cautious. I tend to be cautious about everything. =P

About falcon: I still think he should restart. Plenty of people would replay the first 18 levels just for 200 or so more max MP. He'll prolly disagree with it now, but later he'll look back and wish he had restarted now so that he'd only have 18 levels to make up for.

Maybe Ludi.

If he's seen the whole log, why say maybe? Did he say the changelog included Ludi?

EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to mention it, but seeing Afro's post reminded me. Don't put FFR Night on your list of things that makes you qualified. That kinda sucked. The (quite disappointing) level 50 party was more fun than that, and that was mostly/all thanks to me and Chris.

Secondly, I agree with Noah. I'd rather not have a shared account as the leader.

You guys were fine with it before.

Actually, that was a bit of a failure to be honest. It would have been better if it had just been 6 of us in one party. Not only that, but we didn't have MM timed, and most of us wanted to see rog, but a few people who would be key to actually trying to fight the rog decided to stay behind at macis. In short, it was crowded and not as planned out as something with that many people should have been.

Want to know WHY it didn't work out exactly to plan? None of you LISTEN. You all wanted to do your own way. I made up an itinerary. None of you listened. You wouldn't listen to Pat. You wouldn't listen to me. You wouldn't listen to each other. So I said screw it and went with people who did listen and did want to do the things on the list, like Maci hunt.

It's a completely different thing if you know the person in real life and the only playing of each others characters takes place in the other person's presence or at their house or something like that.

It's still a shared account. Period. We don't know them in person. So how is it different in regards to others feel? Stop being a hypocrite again. You were somehow fine that Vash played on Kamoa's and was training him, yet it's somehow wrong for Pat and I to share one since we don't know each other in person. Does it matter? No. I trust him 100%, whether he was here or not. Even if I knew him in person, he could still fuck me over as much as knowing him online. Nothing I could do about it.

You're treating it as if I'm sharing it with someone who doesn't know anything about the site...

Whatever. I figured you and Noah would go this route again. It's only a matter of time.

Watch Noah be leader and kick people out of the guild for saying a racist joke.. hahaha

Yeah, but I know her IRL and can track her down.

See the thing is, Robby knows Pat IRL and vice-versa. Plus I know another 2 guys that know both of them IRL...


I just want someone who will LISTEN to everyone in the guild... And I really feel that neither you nor Afro will do that.
