Arcanum

The way our development and testing pipelines work; anything for the Spring Fling event (where something like this would mostly likely get added) has already been finalized for this year. The event will begin after server maintenance on Tuesday, February 4th. 💗

You had me at snacks.

Hi everyone!👋 I'm working with the developers to sort out possible solutions to this, however, it will take some time. In the meantime, please be sure to report any player intentionally griefing directly to a GM so we can handle it appropriately. Keep in mind we do not share disciplinary actions taken with other players. 👍 A hidden status does not impact the GM team's ability to view or investigate players. So they are unable to skirt policies due to this. Feel free to report any player suspected of violating our multi-boxing policies and/or griefing, and we will review.

Not going to be pulling more data for this year's post, but mentally noted to include some of these on next year's!

I don't touch powers personally because, quite frankly, it's consistently a "no-win" department. However, I'll take this back to our devs and make sure the feedback gets heard!! As some others have mentioned, it's certainly not the first time hearing it. The holidays still have the team a bit scrambled/busy, and we're getting a few other priority items finalized, which I'm sure you'll be hearing about... Until then, feel free to keep brainstorming and I'll have the team review it for possibilities!

Another round, and another find! We all knew (as a book) I had to hide out in the Steel Canyon Library at some point. Congrats for finding me Mecro-mancer! Only one more day of my giveaway! Hope everyone's enjoying it as much as I am! 😄

I took a step back in time to Cimerora on Torchbearer today, and was discovered by Eclipsa! No doubt cheated using a locator spell! 😄 Can't wait to see whoever finds me, next!

Made a late night trip over to Indomitable, where naturally we had to hide out in a PvP zone. I thought I'd stump people tucked away behind some nuclear rockets, but @Nattuo managed to find me! Only a few days left! I hope to see you guys soon!

This is a bit late but made a stop on Reunion earlier today and was found by @Sir Mayhem! 😄 See you all at the next round!

@Cipher and I made our way to Everlasting this evening! We were hiding out in a cave behind a waterfall, and we still were immediately discovered! Congrats to @isawa koi for getting to us first. Thanks everyone for continuing to indulge me in my game. 😄

In a twist of holiday irony, I visited Torchbearer again this afternoon. I was found by @Dragonplank while waiting on the "Here be Dragons" badge! Guess it was meant to be!

I made my way back to Excelsior this evening, and was found by @SaxyGuitar! Naturally given the holiday season, I was hiding by the Sweet Tooth badge in Cap au Diable. Thanks everyone who played this round. Hope to see you guys again at the next one!

Hi everyone! So while we were hoping that by re-opening this thread, the conversation would continue in a productive and fruitful manner, it seems at this point we're just circling the same points and onto our usual shenanigans, so I'm closing this thread. The TL;DR for those who missed it, is that Homecoming is not currently adding memorial characters to the game (see Cipher's post here for more information on that). While there have been many discussions today for solutions to put options in player hands, it will require time and effort from the devs to implement some of the ideas. We ask for your patience while we explore all of the conversations discussed (because yes, we do read what's being posted). Thanks to everyone who proactively contributed to the conversation to help towards a resolution!

Hi everyone! So it seems this conversation has run it's course - it is circling the same topics, unproductive, and quite frankly just being used as a board to disagree and complain about one another. So I'm locking it. Thanks to anyone who contributed in any productive manner. As always, both the City Council and Game Masters are reviewing all of these messages to see what should be taken away and absorbed. We appreciate everyone who maintains the spirit of the server in their interactions.

So just to keep the convo and ideas productive (because yes, we are reviewing the possibility of all the ideas being shared) - gonna quote Cipher from the other thread. Whatever possibility or solution gets decided (and again as Cipher said, it is unlikely to be immediate), it would involve putting the tributes/memorials into the player's hands. So permanent map fixtures and plaques (which have been discussed before) are unlikely outside of base elements that players can create. Although I'm sure as everyone knows, anything relating to bases is - shall we say, less than ideal given how that entire code system works.
