    How do you use the artefact upgrade tokens? They don't seem to be applied automatically when using the standard ARTEFACT <artefact> UPGRADE command.

    Also, who should I contact to make a case for having an in-game emote deleted?

    Msg tecton, if you upgrade an artie and it doesn't work he's been redeeming them for the 50 Bcredits.

    Is there any difference in prizes between a gold and platinum stocking? I know unhung gold stockings turn into platinum ones after the 25th. Platinum sounds like it has better stuff but that could be completely made up.

    Exactly the same. Only difference is what day they get revealed.

    @Sarapis thanks! Cause I don't have enough patience to let gold stockings turn to platinum.

    I sold a crated animal or two, but it shows in my Artefact list still..this is a bug right?

    Has anyone ever tried relocating furniture from an expanded ship cabin? It should be possible (or at least, no scroll or anything says it is -not- possible) but I am having quite a bit of trouble doing it. I already issued myself but I was wondering if anyone else has tried it before.

    And you won't understand the cause of your grief...

    I may be wrong but I was very much under the assumption that once furniture is placed, it is stuck there until it's decayed. I'm unsure if this has changed or not, but furniture on ships would be no different to furniture in normal houses.

    7.23.6 Furniture relocation
                | Furniture Returns and                             |
         7.23.5 < Repossessions                   Placing furniture > 7.23.7

    (See HELP FURNITURE, HELP FURNITURE SELECTION, HELP FURNITURE PRICING,
         HELP FURNITURE COMMANDS, HELP FURNITURE DECAY, HELP FURNITURE RETURNS,
         HELP FURNITURE PLACING)

    If you purchase an item of furniture, and you are still holding it in your possession, and have not dropped/placed it anywhere, then you may not ask for furniture relocation, but you may return it.
    (If your piece of furniture has already been placed, it may be returned/repossessed, except for beds.)
    Beds
    ----
    Beds may be relocated. Please refer to HELP BEDS for the details on how to accomplish this tricky process.

    Everything Else that Isn't a Bed
    --------------------------------
    Note the full information on whatever item you wish to move/relocate by using IH/INFOHERE. Get the name and number. For example, it might be chest213. Beds are an exception to this: they may not be relocated.
     
    Make sure that you are the owner of this piece, or that you are a qualified member of the org that owns it. For cities that's a position or aide. For Houses that's the House Leader and Office Holders. For orders that's anybody that can erect a shrine.
    Go to Fronck at the furniture showroom.
    REQUEST RELOCATION furniture-item-name-and-number
    Assuming you have enough gold to pay the relocation fee (5% of the original cost of the item, with a minimum of 5000 gold and a maximum of 25000).
    You will receive a token keyed to the item you wish to move.

    WARNING WARNING!
    ----------------
    If you are planning to destroy the room the furniture is in, DON'T DO IT YET! Relocate the furniture first. Then destroy the room it USED to be in. If you destroy a room with furniture in it, guess what happens to the furniture? It's destroyed and no longer relocatable.
    Go to the location to which you would like your item moved. Drop the token. That's all!

    Based on the above, and using the example chest in the file... REQUEST RELOCATION chest213 at Fronck in Delos. Then you must pay a fee, so have the gold out while trying to do it. I assume the next part means you drop the token where you want the item set, but I am not sure. Either that or it attaches the furniture... hrm. Anyways, if none of this works it could be a bug. You should definitely be able to relocate.

    Are the crayfish I've seen in some water environments new or something?

    I've been seeing a lot of new denizen animals pop up in places I've never seen before. It's actually really neat! iirc, there's a cute little porcupine in the siroccians now. Think I saw a new animal in Petra today too.

    Assassin is the bar in the city you're a member of. Champion is just wherever, I think.

    If that's all you plan to buy, the bonus stocking is double. So it's 2 fancy vs 7 regular. I don't know enough about relative values to advise, though.

    Will these new mining artefacts be for sale in the shops, or are they stocking exclusives?

    I have some questions concerning fishing and my confusion with some mechanics.

    It seems I am unable to cast my line below 70 feet, though before I went dormant for so long, I was certain I could get it much lower. Being unable to cast it any lower is making me lose fish sometimes near instantly when they do 1 strong tug. I am using 150 gold bait, which is Mudsuckers and Octopi.


    I asked around and 70 is apparently now the minium. I asked what is needed to make me land more catches, and I was told Trans survival, which I already have, and the fishing Trait, which I also already have. I was informed that the Strength stat may play a part in it, but some are saying it doesnt.


    My question is, how can I improve my fishing abilities moreso than I already currently have? Because if I have all that is possible...im not sure why im still losing fish so easily.

    A quick SEARCHNEWS ANNOUNCE FISHING brought up a list of fishing changes and updates. The second most recent post states (the most recent was just a bug fix)....

    ANNOUNCE NEWS #4004                                     (12/09/2013 at 17:43)  
    From   : Tecton, the Terraformer
    To     : Everyone
    Subject: Classlead updates for December 2013 - Part 2
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          We're pleased to continue our classlead changes from the most current 
    round! Without further ado, I present:
    ................
    General
    =======
          - Icon cutting and blunt penetration powers have been tweaked, bringing 
    them back into line.
          - Limb damage will now cure itself over time, provided they are kept away 
    from harm. This does not apply to broken limbs, just the damage leading up to a 
    break.
          - Strength no longer affects fishing chances, all adventurers are now on 
    an even keel.

    I hope that helps!

    @Tecton are you able to give a solid answer on what exactly affects fishing?

    I have seen so many different rumours about this. Obviously not strength now, but many people insist survival or more seafaring helps with deep sea, others insist it doesn't. It'd be really good to know for sure finally!

    HELP FISHING

    (Note: This is a shortened version of it with just certain parts taken out for clarification.)

    For casting:
    • This takes balance and the balance cost varies with racial advantages or disadvantages.
    • Shorter casts are a bit faster than medium, and medium a bit faster than long. Conversely, long casts carry a better chance of getting a stronger strike then medium, and medium have a better chance than short.
    For teasing the line:

    • Your chance of the teasing working decreases the further away from the ideal time you are. Remember that there IS potentially value in teasing the line after a small or medium strike, because it increases the chances that jerking the pole will hook the fish.
    • It's also worth noting that the higher your survival skill, the better you will be at teasing the line.
    • This takes balance and the balance cost varies with racial advantages or disadvantages.
    For jerk pole:

    • As with tease line, the further away from this ideal time you are, the less your chance for success will be. And, like tease line, the higher your survival skill is,
    • This takes balance and the balance cost varies with racial advantages or disadvantages.
    For reeling:

    • This will reel the fish in a distance determined by both your survival skill and the size of the fish. With some of the big fish, particularly sturgeons and giant salmon, you will have to get very lucky indeed to reel fast enough to stop these monster fish from running out your line and snapping it, so be warned.
    • The distance you reel varies somewhat with the size and fight of the fish.
    Other:

    • It's possible to fish out a room, but the fish will be replaced approximately every Achaean month.
    • It's not possible to fish out a deep sea location like it is on land, but areas may be over-fished which will result in the chance of catching fish being significantly lowered. Also, you will never be able to catch fish in some locations. Refer to HELP 23 and its related topics for more details.
    • SURVEY will let you know, in a freshwater or river room, if there are no fish, a few fish, or more than about ten fish available to catch in that room.

    Everyone is on an even keel with deep sea AND freshwater fishing. If you have deepseafishing, you are no better than anyone else. It is just based on how well you know how to use the techniques available to you, and your luck.

    You might also find some answers in the Archives of the Terraformer (http://forums.achaea.com/categories/archives-of-the-terraformer) in the Ask Your Producer threads... but I'm not feeling like going through all the pages right now. When in doubt you can always ISSUE yourself and ask a question if you're unsure. Can't always rely on other player answers, as you can see there were varying answers about the fishing and a lot of wrong information going around, like strength is NOT considered anymore.
