I was feeling bored and my mind drifted to this old topic for some reason. I guess it's related to the fact that I've been doing a lot of statistics work in Excel lately.

Though I don't really play on EFU anymore, I decided to incorporate the respawn bonus added a couple of months ago into my calculations and came up with the following graph:



Note that calculations are made on the basis that the respawn bonus is fully regained. Obviously, when you're on a dying streak, the total respawn penalty will still be higher than this (and, therefore, on average, probably still is).

As you can see, the point chosen for statistical reference in the initial argument is not much closer to the high range of level 8.

For the sake of argument, would you say that implementation of the respawn bonus has influenced the average character level, and, more specifically, where would you judge the average character level to be both now and before the implementation of the respawn bonus?

Just returned from 10 days at the Waterloo bicentennial, and have effectively completed all my coursework for the year.

Summer's on and I intend to return to EFU starting tomorrow.

I remember that in old EFU the town hall had a mechanical svirfneblin timekeeping device.

this gets a no vote because theres no crazy moustache turban guy

Throwing Axes are pretty much the strongest ranged weapon out there. Because they're a throwing weapon, the STR modifier is always added to damage, and you can use them together with a shield. I'm not 100% sure about this, but I believe they can also be targeted with magic weapon, unlike normal ranged weapons. So you have an easily enchantable, consistent damage output ranged weapon that requires no sacrifice of AC. Highly effective on fighters and other high-AC, high-STR classes. Their impracticality is justified.

Everything appears to be working properly now. Thank you, Talir!

DM Elmo tried setting me up with a special wage to solve this problem. I am also not receiving the special wage.

If someone could take another look at this I'd be much obliged. The money's important to me, because it allows me to give incentive to people to get involved with my PC's activities. Without money I can't really get much done.

Confirmed unable to be IG until next monday, unfortunately. Still available through the forums.

Out of the loop for a couple of days. I'm back on the forums on monday, not 100% sure about being IG, but regular service will resume monday after next.

Did you get a multiplayer CD key?

I think the entire practice of these relayed sendings often skirts the rules as it is. Making it freely available seems like a bad idea.

make a clerk again

Now to get rid of that pointless what's new page!

This is just a request for automation of something that requires exactly as much effort to set up for the player as adding a /c desc set macro to your quickbar for use in the same situation. There's no point.

Being a clerk is the most fun I've had in ages on EFU. I encourage everyone who thinks they could take the concept places to join up.
