Hmm I wonder if there is a way to turn on "ignore user" for everyone at the same time. Yes, there must be. Its MySQL based and has a command window. Might take some fiddling but it would be possible. That would be funnier than banning someone, just turn on a blanket ignore to anything they put in. Whats the old word for it? Shunning? or Worfs discombooberation or whatever it was when they all turned their backs.

I think the word you are searching for is "ostracism" Gandelf. It came fom the Ancient Greece, than it migrated into Latin, and from there to other european Languages. And yes, it could be more fun than ignoring or banning, forum-wise.

It could be a bit hard to implement though, considering the fact that not all people accept cookies in their browsers, which you would likely need to implement such a feature. But the idea is interesting.

hmmm, I think we're just waiting for quantum to say he's into playing a bit of "let's all gang up on the peaceful Micts who never harmed anybody."

Malt, you should definitely play the vannish turn. Let's keep this really slow host schedule going too, pls.

Also, have you managed to gain control of the game yet? I need you to change the master pass or else Stormbinder will be able to snoop around my game, possibly causing trouble; which I fully expect him to do, frankly, since that is my opinion of his character.

He certainly has no legitimate reason whatsoever to keep control of the game.

Whats the old word for it? Shunning?

shunning is probably the most apt term, but there is that old phrase "sent to Coventry."

LOL. You are so funny Arcahe. You try so hard to insult somebody but just end up looking stupid every time.
Try to think about it for a second - even if I would have any interest of "snooping" around your turns, which of course I don't, how could I possibly affect the game which I am no longer part of?? It would require a direct cooperation and conspiracy between me and at least one in-game player against you.
You know, you remind me of Norfleet, he also loved to come up with ridiculious conspiracy theories, of how everybody is out to get him. Perhaps you should write him, ask if he needs a roomate in his undeground bunker.

Or do you suspect me to somehow alter your turns in such subtle and malicious way that you would not even notice that I did it?


To Maltrease: Got your email Malt, wrote you reply already. Glad that you are having good time on your vocation. About Throne game - I just disowned Vanheim nation on Mose's server. I am not sure if it have changed anything else though. I haven't found any other ways to "disown" the game. If you know of one, let me know and will be glad to do it. Personally I thought that you can already change whatever you want in the game, since I gave you the master password for it together with my own password. I could be wrong though, since I haven't played with this part of Mose's scripts before.

Iirc when you stop the game after it is stopped you can disown it .

Hmmm, is it so? Thanks Boron. That could explain why I haven't seen such option, since the game is currently running.


Well guys, if you want me to try to do it let me know. I don't want to meddle with stoping and restarting of this game that I am no longer part of, unless players will ask me to do it.

[Boron]

I am not sure though if there is an own-option then for other ppl as well .
So if you really want to do this or archeolopt wants you to do this seriously then it would be best to ask mose himself probably .

[Cainehill]

Just curious - is this game still running?

[archaeolept]

lol it was Last i looked

i had quite a few gems...

stormwhiner refused to ever give up ownership, so no one can stop it. hmmm, i guess maybe someone should email mose.
