- (Eleusian Ranger Techs): Savira says, "Most of the hard stuff seem to have this built in code like: If adventurer_hitting_me = "Sarathai" then send("terminate and selfdestruct")."
- Makarios says, "Serve well and perish."
- Xaden says, "Xaden confirmed scrub 2017."

@Farrah: "AESI GO AWAY YOU'RE TOO STUPID AND UGLY
me: qq
(actually I was on my phone and you had enough as it was but meh!)
Bad Aesi.
No Aesi, that's a bad Aesi
NO AESI, THIS IS MY POT PIE.
Sorry...
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
I felt really bad about this.
My "something is up" senses are tingling.
Edit: By the way, no one has, so I certainly will: The cubes that were snuck into our inventories at the end of the event are super duper neat. I really love the idea of storing memories of an important event in history like that. It's such a cool idea and translated really well.
That love soon might end You are unbreaking
And be known in its aching Though quaking
Shown in this shaking Though crazy
Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
I don't know if this is the correct forum for this, but I wanted to extend a thank you to basically everyone I've played with; there are some excellent people who play this game and truly make Achaea a game worth participating in. Tesha, Antonius, Dunn, Kross, Saibel, Mithridates, Gibbi, and many others.
I played Achaea previously, I think 10 years ago now!, but stopped because I was young, stubborn, and stupid and brought upon myself a lot of unwanted attention (while seeking attention... teenage me was super dumb). At the time I didn't know what the term was, but now I know I had been doxxed and no longer felt safe playing Achaea. I began playing a separate IRE game and had what I felt was a pretty successful career there, but the game's direction didn't leave much to be desired, the population had been steadily declining, I was upset by a 'big' decision and felt I had no reason to stay, and so I decided to try out Achaea again but with a lot more caution than before. I am happy to say that my experience was very different, everyone was friendly, and it was very fun for me. Playing some puns on the forums has definitely been a favorite highlight; somehow surviving Jarrod and Dunn in the "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IM DOING" fiasco; moving from Mhaldor to Targossas and the repercussions thereof, it's been a great experience and getting to know people and even see how some older characters have changed has been overwhelmingly positive.
But life calls, between work, school, and the hours of practice it takes for my olympic lifting/crossfit competitions, and other hobbies (like, cuddling my two cats and eating whole pints of ice cream in one sitting), I've found that I don't have the energy to continue a lasting relationship with Achaea... um... obviously because I've been dormant for like 2 years and some change now....
I try drop in and say hey on occasion but it's at all hours usually. I hope everyone is doing well! Thanks everyone for being awesome and a good community. From what I read I think Achaea is going in a great direction. I am excited for Starmourn as well and might check it out when it's been a bit established! See you guys on the flip side.

The shakes go away! In fact, I still get them, my heart still pumps fighting, group not so much, but dueling oh man!
a player kill in Achaea is by far one of the most satisfying experiences, like Call of Duty has nothing on it. Your system verse another player's and you've both spent RL YEARS building, tweaking, scrapping, remaking! OH THE HUMANITY!
Not to mention that the situations are SO DIVERSE! You can't expect really the same thing every time! It's dynamic!
I will say that I hate being ganked, but war is war, and that's awesome that it's a viable thing as it allows the full aspect of combat to be real.
Hunting a player for a bounty is like, literally a lion stalking a gazelle, it's ridiculously awesome and awesome that people have made that thing as open as possible on a text game!
I had recently started to date a nice girl and she wanted to try achaea, and it totally made me remember JUST HOW FREAKING HARD the learning curve of this game is, I mean the poor girl just sits there hunting with decay the whole time (apo) and next thing I know she's level 50 with 100 credits and couldn't even respond to a tell! I had to teach her, it was kinda cute but you guys know me, it's annoying and I have a short temper, but I like her so I'm patient! In any consolation it made me a little more lax against other nubs, because truthfully it's a harddd game to play!
So the next time you're getting owned by someone, remember that literally 90% of the people in your life wouldn't be able to even hold the interest to make it as far as you did!
props to hunters and rp'ers too just cuz.
xoxoxo
I know he helps a ton of other people with their own mudlet/scripting struggles. So a huge rave to him for his endless patience and a big thanks when I know not enough comes at him for it.
