While we're asking questions, I have just one: What's the purpose of the bonfires?
#36300433267 03/28/2008 18:47:22 Re:Kill Smith - Rec 3/27, Syn 3/31, Vec 4/1
While the bonfire question is pertinent and intriguing, can I suggest to Rarebit not to turn everyone in an area into Smiths? I wouldn't mind it if the Smithlings or the Virus itself turned people they're attacking into Smithies but the other night we were turned by way of admin disguise so we weren't flagged and we couldn't infect anyone else... besides... some ladies might have been put off by added... equipment, note how the killshot was by a male....

Which is another point, why don't spawned smithlings (not mission Smithies) infect people? Or do they and they just avoided little old lvl 18 ViniaR?

You know what... I'm gonna say what I've been saying for like 2 years ever since I crashed just before I killed the assassin. Make those rewards for everyone. You need to create balance and as it stands now, you only have people complaining.

You need to make the really uber items so people can get them but they need to be lucky to get them. Like lets say have a really powerful npc spawn randomly once a day in the game in a different spot. Whoever gets the loot on this npc will get a token. 50 tokens and they can trade for a uber item. Then for events all you need to do is just make it so whoever wins the event gets their names on these forums and in the record books. Those that win events often will get their whole faction a cool reward like if zion wins a few events a few times in a row then they would get to team up 1 day outa the month with a LE charactor and you know have em be on their team all day doing whatever. Pvping, mining. You know how cool it would be right? To have your orgs charactor on your team helping you pwn in pvp?

Special rewards should be given but not to any one player it should be given to the org and those that want the really elite items should get it if they work really hard to do so. Now I'm sorry but that is my two cents and yea...

It's gonna happen, sooner or later the devs will see that org wide reward is much better. Players in the same org don't need to fight each other for the last kill in an event it should be the whole org is the winner and they all get rewarded with something cool. Give the ability to get the uber items that people have won in events but make them harder to get then most would even try. That way the uber players that really want those items can get them if they work hard and everyone else can just keep complaining like they will always do. But if you add org wide rewards to that you get balance and that is what the matrix needs more then anything.

Teh Two has spoken. That is all. =P

Hmm...to delay the death on Vector, Rare should make like four level 85's or so that must be killed before the level 100 even appears. Kinda like how the Assassin had to be killed on all servers to ultimately die.
#36300433514 03/29/2008 13:01:31 Re:Kill Smith - Rec 3/27, Syn 3/31, Vec 4/1
geez, people complaining about rewards is annoying, go do it elsewhere.  So Smith is a Fanatic Self Improver?  Makes sense I guess.  Looking forward to Monday!

Edit: Ouch, I just realized this is at 2:00 pm...which is 12:00 for me.  I have class from like 10:00 to 1:00 and then 2:00 to 3:00...I think I'm going to go vomit and cry.  I don't know why but I really thought the event was going to be later than this.  I knew it was earlier than typical event time, but not this early

Edit Part 2: I just realized that this is actually like 4:00 for me, which is great!  I really almost gave myself a heart attack.  I need to figure out those "numbers" that people keep talking about.

Oh, based on things this person has said to me ingame and general attitude towards us, I would say someone was trying to use a double negative to appear that way? Anyway, I shouldn't help derail this thread... I'm sure that will happen after the next smith attack SMILEY

I might try to kill smith on Syntax with my level 2, after someone power leveling from Yasa!

How long did it take to get him on Recursion?  I'm producing for our news show today for an hour after the event starts.  Hopefully it's still going on.
#36300434121 03/31/2008 09:37:18 Re:Kill Smith - Rec 3/27, Syn 3/31, Vec 4/1
It lasted about 34/36 minutes tops.
#36300434124 03/31/2008 09:46:55 Re:Kill Smith - Rec 3/27, Syn 3/31, Vec 4/1
Operator msg ~5:05, people scrambling to find him, finally found at ~5:20, was dead by 5:40 on my clock. Rare's said he is gonna try a few things today to make it last longer, though, so we'll see.

Looking forward to this.

But yeah!  He really is, and he doesn't get enough recognition... so I'm really happy he got this. SMILEY<img src=

It lasted a pretty good while.  I wasn't looking at time but I'd guess around 45 mins or so, maybe give or take 10.

Grats to Grod, but you should have waited like 10 more seconds for me to watch him die!

It was a fun event, and I got a few hits on him and il'd him.  I still don't understand those bonfires though.

#36300434293 03/31/2008 16:05:45 Re:Kill Smith - Rec 3/27, Syn 3/31, Vec 4/1

Event was basically, Rarebit trying desperately to jump around to prolong the event, even spawn a lot of npcs which although were deadly, imo there were so many people there that they held the aggro and not me, then finally I think he just gave up around 25% health. When it got down to the wire though my heart was pumping! :p Logic Cannon just didn't go through fast enough, still, Grod won it so that's good enough for me.
