even with DML equipped by the end, doesn’t explain it… attack bouncethroughs take time regardless… (moreso before than now) elenaratelimit edited this message on 10/26/2008 2:37PM |

I’m with elena. not just because of the months of grinding and being behind you top 4 guys, it’s the retirement of that peen. why? there should be a way to combine the level cap and the highest cred. |

also imo they should retire the cred leaderboard peen and just give out a new peen for the people who hit 100 million cred |

That’s pretty much the only way things are going to make sense (and that new E-Peen exists btw). Awarding 2 E-Peen for the exact same thing is just silly. |

Actually it’s not fair to say it’s implemented without testing. I ran my balance bot on it many times and I tested the grinding from 10-25 myself.
The idea is to stick within 2 levels of yourself. You can’t grind against the forums that are much higher than you. With the community forums, you should always have a handful of forums within your pwning range at any given time.
If it’s taking more than 6 forum visits to level up, you are probably pwning the wrong forums. |

So people who have the cred peen shouldn’t get the 35 peen, or vice versa – which is why they should consolidate it into ONE then if they’re going to retire the cred one.
Not have two peens – for people who have the previous one, and now the new one… since it’s the ‘exact same thing’...
Then I guess I could tolerate it. |

Serious bugs are finally slowing down and I’m able to take some notes on the game.
The economy is a little out of whack now but it will be fixed. Basically Flezz shouldn’t be flowing as freely as it is.
In terms of end game content, we have plans to upgrade just about every end game feature we have in place (forumbuildr, domination, incit) and we have plans for a couple of new ones, too. We’re going to come up with some new hard to reach end game goals too.
Basically, like after E1 launched, very soon you will start to see many upgrades and new gameplay features here. In the meantime, please report everything you can think of that’s out of whack in the game. Even if it’s not broken per se, you can report it as a balance issue and we will get to it. We really need a lot of feedback to fix things. |

Or cheated more, right mr. 250 seconds on Faux News?
I’m pretty sure it’s possible to run Faux News in 5 minutes, without a DML, consistently, and beating LOTS of people without DMLs. And, funny enough, that happened ONLY on Faux News. I mean, if you were a good speedrunner, you’d be dominating ALL forums, amirite?
Also, I’m 100% sure you were able to outcred people like meeeeeeeee and scullyangel without a DML, when you were not known yet. Yeah we know you outcred these people who have DMLs (well, meeeeeeee did back when he got his E-Peen) fair and square without a DML and without being able to grind Faux News. Probably your PrayPal gave more cred for you? Log in to see images!
Yeah everyone who takes FW a little seriously and accuses you of cheating is doing it without reason.
http://www.forumwarz.com/discussions/view_post/251146 never forget.
—— I know this is not important anymore, but at least we all know the behavior of this good Forumwarz member. Probably we will never know for sure if he cheated on Faux or not (of course he did but he will never tell us), and there’s no guarantees he’ll cheat again to get his Flezz E-Peen.

So how’s it possible you got half that without scripting then?
But thanks for pontificating about how people should ‘try harder’ when they had to take an hour each day to do what you did in half the time… without any explanation as to how. |

elenaratelimit Posted: OK so with your question you earned the weirdest reply ever. 1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator? Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door. 2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator? Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. 3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend…. except one. Which animal does not attend? The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just put him in there. 4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage it? You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting. |

quang in all seriousness, I understand not wanting to give away your Secret Method but your evasion is even more curious than your speedrun times themselves. Now that Faux has been nerfed speedrunning it should be a moot point. What on other are you hoping to gain by this?
I mean, jesus. At least offer SOME reason. If you have to lie, **** it, LIE. But right now you’re just making yourself irrefutably guilty. |

I wasn’t trying to evade but I had a feeling that some people didn’t really want to know how I speedran it but how I scripted it. They think that it’s unfair when they had to put a lot of efforts into it while I needed none. That’s not true. You don’t know how happy I was when ep2 came and I didn’t have to grind that goddamn forum again. I feel that this topic is being driven the wrong way, so I’ll stop it here. Eventually I’ll write what I did with Faux to get that “cheater” speedrun time, but I’d say I’m more like the victim than I had actually gained any advantage from it. For those who still want some justice, here’s the tubmail I sent to Evil Trout. It doesn’t explain much in details, but basically that was what I did: If you try looking at my attack pattern you’ll see that I am using a strategy to make sure my strongest attacks (Poetry and Your Mom) are used whenever they are available. I even get myself well healed in preparation for attack combos (YM – Poetry – YM) so I need fewer turns to kill the threads. |

quang, I see where you are coming from at the beginning. You (according to your story) worked very hard at this and don’t like being accused of cheating. That much is understandable.
However, I don’t appreciate the implication that you have been victimized. If people are hostile and accusing you of cheating it is because you have gone weeks and months stoking that fire. You have withhold explanations seemingly for no reason other than to **** people off. It frankly blows my mind to imagine any scenario where this level of provocation was an accident. Maybe you found some secret, super-cool speedrun technique. Maybe you’re a dirty rotten no-good cheater. I have no proof. But regardless of which is true, you have all but encouraged your detractors on Flamebate to continue trolling you. Now you claim you did it because you didn’t believe they really wanted to know “how you speedran it but how you scripted it”. Bull. There are TONS of ways you could’ve scripted it. That’s not the point. How you could’ve scripted it was never the mystery. The mystery is how you did it “without cheating”, something you continue to withhold for no apparent reason. Yes. We want to know. We will put up a polite facade if that is what it takes for you to understand that we are serious. We do want to know how you did it.
No one respects the “magician’s secret” when the trick is the words “trust me!”
As for grinding Faux? You were never forced to do that. You managed to get the Cred e-peen out of it, and this was clearly a lot of work for you (whether you cheated or not). Good for you. Every e-peen you get is an e-peen you wont be whining “clbum balance” about, so I guess it all works out for us. But don’t talk like the “horrible burden” of grinding Faux made it so hard for you. Tough. That much has nothing to do with the people criticizing you, it has to do with your choice. I bumume your excuse is that you had to overcome the “clbum handicap” of being a Troll vs a leaderboard of Camwhores. But that late in the game, everyone knows DML Trolls ruled the leaderboards. And before Camwhores were on top, Emo Kids were gods-among-men at pwning (if not at flezz-collection). Every clbum has had a moment at the top, and you were there for the Age of Trolls. Now this thread is the first I’ve heard that you clawed your way to the top without a DML, and that much sounds like BS. Even if you weren’t cheating at all, how’d you get that much cred, that much flezz, and not buy a DML? Log in to see images!
Personally? I think you did use a script and slightly randomized some of the timing so it wouldn’t look like a script. That is the common way to avoid detection with scripts. As far as character defense, you’ve never given any of us reason to believe you aren’t cheating. Frankly, quang, you act like a guilty man, and the evidence is against you. CZ seems to trust you, and I usually trust their judgment. So maybe there is something they know that I don’t. Maybe you’re just That Good, and if that’s the case I’m sure everyone apologizes for treating you like this.
But I don’t think so. Orb edited this message on 10/27/2008 12:26AM |

Dude…that’s awesome. Is this intended for Forumbuildr, or Clbum avatar selection, or both? We could always use more ‘tars!
Let me just suggest that besides including the PD info and ensuring they’re the proper dimension, you also quickly adjust the brightness/contrast/colors to ensure that they’re easily identifiable at their small size. |
