All I'm saying is a hero's pack is not worth the effort required to win that contest.

Here's an example of the captcha system they implemented to deter bots Edit - Please note the Financial Manager guild bonus quests have the captcha as well. If you fail the captcha you lose one quest turn in. Hy_C fucked around with this message at 20:14 on Jul 29, 2014 |

I was trying to explain that to someone and they kept mentioning how they had set up a captcha bypass program before. I thought he meant writing a program for it and not some textbypass.exe double click. This is actually a lot more difficult to program something to get around and at best the bots can force it 1 in 56 tries. The only thing that would make it easy is if it had a stock set of pictures to pull from.

1 in 28 actually. Clicking the same one twice fails so you have 8-n for each picture, starting at 1.

Ahaha didn't know about clicking on a thing twice would fail you, also yah, I went two far.

I was saying making a sufficiently accurate Captcha breaker for this purpose would not be a difficult/impossible task and you kept telling me to actually look at it. Just because it's different doesn't mean it's (more) secure, no reason to be obtuse about it Ihki fucked around with this message at 02:37 on Jul 30, 2014 |

If you fail the captcha Hello.jpeg appears on the screen and it's calls you a human being in Chinese. Lutherince explained it in mumble

Are those rotating 3d objects?
|
# ? Jul 30, 2014 05:25 |

As far as we can tell, yah. Stationary but each time you do it they are rotated in a different direction. Plenty of humans have so far failed it and if you do it for a guild quest that rewards unbound, a worthless quest for most, you use up a quest for the day. We have had several issues where goats and horses are rotated such that it is hard to figure out which is the right one. Same thing with the pug dog and some other unnameable beast. It is a pretty good captcha. Bots will still get into instances but it is so slow that most stay open. The new event also happens in a pvp zone with no penalties so bots can't do that place without dieing.

Swordsman online is a free to play, open pvp game from Perfect World Beijing. It is set in a fantastical chinese setting based on The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber wuxia setting. Some regard it as a polished, far more enjoyable version of the similar game Age of Wushu. Here are some samples of the gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2kXkygBztM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLQ22aF_SS4 How to play with goons Download Arc here http://games.arcgames.com/en/ Download the game via arc. First you have to be on the server US East Claymore. You can not be on the other US east server or any other server. You will need to be level 20 then you can apply to the guild “GoonTangClan”. You just open up the guild list, find us, and apply. Since we don't know if you are a goon or not let us know your name in this thread. Otherwise you might be niggerstomper59 who just applied. Game wiki http://swordsman.gamepedia.com/Swordsman_Wiki Features: Intriguing class system https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbzC99q-hFM Sheep based PvP Respectfully draws on the Deep well of Chinese culture and heritage for inspiration Flying Mounts Glorious Character creator Deep and Rich Cash Shop Graffiti system foe painting the town red (red colour not included) Goon Testimonials: "School costumes (Girls) : Most sensible - Splendor Most sexy - S&M Most knickers showing - Zephyr Best hats - 5Venoms" - Aleksander noted upskirt expert "The grind is more heinous than I thought, and after the event last night and seeing how gems are blowing up on Lash, I can see the p2w at the end of the tunnel. I find the arenas very fun, and like the idea of being in a tournament, but that can only carry things so far, Add to that my fiance bitching me out last night about gaming too much." - Haroshia Goon Tang Clan head diplomat New Goons: You must reach lvl 20 before applying to the guild, also it is best to stay online and pm a goon to accept you, after posting your in game name in this thread. The quickest way to level is to quest until lvl 15 then solo the first dungeon after turning on your double xp buff (top of screen beige EXP button next to LV number). You should also enter a tutor number. Hit escape key, and choose tutor button far left, and paste a code into the box for tutor. This gives you a box of goodies every 10 levels. Tutor codes HyC's: 23070000000131088460 whoopy: 23070000000212000844 At level 50 players can pick up students and provide them with daily experience and a 15% experience buff for 30 minutes. The buff can be applied by the master all day long, and if the master is not doing it the student can ask for it a limited number of times. So when you join the guild ask for mentors and start using that bonus xp. Diplomacy: "In 2 days Zhou will discuss getting us into their alliance. Hopefully that stops people from being tards." - Haroshia Goontang CLan diplomat.

It's a bit bare bones and mostly copy and pasted from this thread. If someone wants to tinker with it feel free. People wanted a new thread for launch, which was today. If anyone has any suggestions feel free.

Pay me and BERGfu royalties. Also take off the class chart because we made it to gently caress with other "people". Last thing we need is new goons ranting about how there is no monkey canyon instance secret entrance. Edit: Fixed some terrible images.

The grind is more heinous than I thought, and after the event last night and seeing how gems are blowing up on Lash, I can see the p2w at the end of the tunnel. I find the arenas very fun, and like the idea of being in a tournament, but that can only carry things so far. Add to that my fiance bitching me out last night about gaming too much, and I've decided I'm going to take a brief break. I may come back if when I think about it the game seems worth coming back to, but for now feel free to demote me down to member and give somebody else Wushu goon leadership.
