Cherries seem to be the bottleneck more than the rest. 5 per pie and I think they come from extensions?

We're sitting on roughly 20k cherries, the bottleneck is Pie Crusts.

Even if everyone had full sets of superior Blues, that only goes so far against timers. Then there's spells which requires mana (don't get me started about lovely loving Magic and terrible terrible loving Mana) and people being around that can cast it or you being far enough along in Magic that you can cast the requisite skill. Or you can use Cherry Pies that work anywhere and for any task.

So it looks like we're invested too heavily in gathering food for our fat asses. Not enough high level production factories.

We're [fat] goons and you're wondering why we're more concerned about getting a bunch of food?

I think a problem (I guess?) is that some people look at what tools we have, what materials we have, and then ask "what do we need?" and the answer is usually "uhhh, logs I guess?/Always need logs". And there's not really encouragement for people to train the production skills since we've started getting into the "Gotta get pinks/superiors" mindset, so we want to have the highest skill level players making everything.

As for fishing, fishing loving sucks and is terrible. Grumpy needs to overhaul fishing, or at least give it a good impartial once over and make some improvements. Its unfortunate that a lot of mana food comes out of it.

Holiday event is up:

Grumpy
Decorative Stockings - It's that time of year again! Decorative stockings can now be found throughout the world while doing any action, killing any scary monster or cute cuddly critter. You will be able to find the stockings throughout the holiday season. There will be a followup post specifying when the event will end. Happy Holidays!

Someone else can give better advice about what we should be doing to maximize the benefit here.

Do tasks that are as close to 20/15 timer while running as close to 400%RD as possible, for the duration of the event. Pine Cones are a good low level thing. As always, you can ask in guild for guidance.

BS is another game that is similar. Don't confuse the above for amar, an actually good game.

Let's not go telling lies now, Amar is still a pretty bad game. Though more from the pubbie crowd, than the game itself.

pixaal posted:

Can we not bot Amar, Grumpy has actual good logs and many people already think goons are a bunch of cheaters. It also means all the XP you get is now in the guild and kind of devalues everything people playing legit have done.

If that's not what that is ignore me.

I think that's for Broken Shield, the thing that oldskool and Meowth have been trying to destroy for the last couple weeks.

CoffeeQaddaffi
Mar 20, 2009
Battered Shield (I'm pretty sure its Battered Shield) is a much, much, much worse Amaranthine in what amounts to Alpha that is hopelessly open. Meowth has been working on a method to crash the server with no signature, using java script or something. Oldskool figured out that he could dupe items and he and someone else crashed the server because how big they hit an integer overflow (oldskool and one other person got banned, the entire goon guild was dismantled).

Stay far, far away.

21:58:16 From MadSanta : do you know goose Goose?
21:58:41 To MadSanta : Yes
21:59:02 From MadSanta : hes been whispering me some crazy stuff and I need to know if it's true
21:59:12 To MadSanta : As much as anyone can really know anyone else
22:00:00 To MadSanta : I might be able to help
22:00:25 From MadSanta : does your leader really have people sign contracts, force people to stay in guild from legal resons, and do some crazy scary stuff just to keep his guild?
22:02:31 From MadSanta : ?
22:02:35 To MadSanta : No, not to my knowledge. He just helps people out irl sometimes, that's all.
22:03:06 From MadSanta : well you should here the stuff goose Goose is claiming he's done
22:03:12 To MadSanta : But I'm ok financially, so I might not see stuff
22:03:43 From MadSanta : just be weary of any contracts that appear ok
22:04:42 To MadSanta : That's really not a nice thing to say about anybody, even online. What kinds of things was Goose saying?
22:05:04 From MadSanta : should I send you the whisper messages?
22:05:34 From MadSanta : ill send a message with it to you
22:05:49 To MadSanta : sure
22:07:21 MadSanta sent you a message.
22:09:12 To MadSanta : Huh, this is some pretty serious stuff. I'm gonna have to ask Xerol about this.
22:09:28 From MadSanta : uhmm that might be a bad idea
22:09:44 From MadSanta : just sayinf
22:10:32 From MadSanta : i would ask around a bit first then if nothing comes up we can confront Goose
22:11:32 To MadSanta : I just don't see where any of this is coming from. Xerol has been nothing but above board with me. This is some scary stuff, if true.
22:12:16 From MadSanta : yah that's why I wanted to make sure that it wasn't true
22:13:37 From MadSanta : the thang that scared me the most was apparently paying if grumpy
22:14:36 From MadSanta : so I'm on the part of deciding weather to turn him in or not
22:15:27 To MadSanta : Turn him in to who though?
22:16:03 From MadSanta : gms or grumpy
22:16:11 From MadSanta : but that's why I'm deciding
22:16:33 From MadSanta : because if he paid grumps of I will be banned
22:16:37 To MadSanta : If Xerol has bought off Grumpy, then you really don't want to rock the boat
22:16:46 From MadSanta : yah
22:17:06 From MadSanta : would the gems know though. They could confront grumps
22:17:15 From MadSanta : GM's
22:23:28 From MadSanta : im getting someone else's opinion
22:25:49 From MadSanta : hey just messaged me
22:26:04 To MadSanta : uh oh
22:26:08 From MadSanta : he
22:26:18 From MadSanta : i told him I would stop :rolleyes:
22:26:19 To MadSanta : He's been asking about it in Guild too
22:26:44 From MadSanta : all he could do is ignore me :lol:
22:28:00 To MadSanta : Look, we're not really sure what he does for the government, or really which one. He's implied that some of the long term offline people are never coming back, but nothing more than that
22:28:22 From MadSanta : o god
22:28:30 To MadSanta : So I would cool it and forget about it.

like I said Grumpy has a really terrible, unfun, draconian, and inaccurate definition. imo this is not automation; he can ruin the game all he wants, I don't care.

Somehow he has convinced most of the players that copy-pasting the page is fine however, I don't get it.

If you don't like it, quit. Its amazing that goons (and others on the internet, granted) don't seem to acknowledge that they can just quit a game if they don't like it.
