Kingdom of Loathing

[Prudence]

My name is Prudence, and I am a geek.

And that's why I love Kingdom of Loathing (http://www.kingdomofloathing.com) -- because who doesn't love an stick-figure RPG? Any time I get to equip a pair of mariachi pants I'm a happy camper.

[Prudence]

Oh my heck! I even get to use mojo points! It's a swanky RPG!

[Ghoulish Delight]

The two moons are named Ronald and Grimace. I love this game :D

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'm out of adventures for the day :(

Hey Pru, are you in a clan?

[Prudence]

Nope, not yet. I was thinking of forming my own, but I'm only level 3 right now. (zydeco rogue!) Interested?

[CoasterMatt]

Thank you Prudence... now I REALLY must get some sleep :)

[Ponine]

Oh Prudence.. not much got done on Friday. or saturday. And it's happily, all your fault.
Thank you!

[Prudence]

I live to distract!

[tracilicious]

Well, I've found a new obsession...How bout a LoT clan?

[Ghoulish Delight]

I've just hit level 4. Whoever hits 5 first, we'll start up a clan.

[tracilicious]

I'm still on 3. I wish I had unlimited turns per day. I wonder when it rolls over?

[Not Afraid]

I am NOT clicking that link nor signing up. Not gonna do it. Not gonna do it.

[Ghoulish Delight]

C'mooooon. You know you want a pair of Knob Gobblin pants!

[Not Afraid]

I always have. But, I'm not gonna get them. Nope. Think of the puppies!!!

[Ghoulish Delight]

I always have. But, I'm not gonna get them. Nope. Think of the puppies!!!I'm sure the puppies would love a dense meat stack!

Besides, the games got a wonderfully self-regulating addiction preventer built in.

[Prudence]

And the tongs! You know you want tongs!

I'm up to level 4 and I just need tires for my car.

[tracilicious]

I might be wrong, but I think you have to be level 7 before starting a clan. I've joined the Unlikely Ninja clan in the meantime. You get 500 meat a day, plus you can work out in the clan gym, plus access to loads of items. Oh, and 3 extra adventures a day. Then whenever one of us levels up high enough to start a clan, I can leave and have lots of meat and items to contribute to our clan. Feel free to follow the link to the clan in my profile (I'm tracilicious, as usual). The meat alone is worth it to me.

I don't totally understand the ascension and such yet. It's kind of confusing.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'm pretty sure it's level 5 to start a clan, I'll double check.

Yeah, that's the one thing about starting a clan...we need to get a bunch of stuff. A meat stash, a calander, and there was one other thing. The meat stash I think youg get jus by having enough meat. Don't know how to get the other items, we'll have to research.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Dang, level 7 it is. Alright, Unlikely Ninja, eh? Look for me, I'm BaconD.

[tracilicious]

Sweet. I was reading one of the forums about Epic weapons. I need to figure out how to make one, or at least get something stronger than a stick, as the rats at the tavern keep killing me.

The meat you get from a meat tree. I don't know where you get one of those. Maybe you get one just from starting a clan? I know you can farm for things too. If enough of us join a clan, we should have a stock of fairly sweet items by the time we start our own.

Everytime I think about Bacon Delight, it gets Afternoon Delight in my head. Sky rockets in flight...

[Ghoulish Delight]

LOL

Yeah, I think you have to grow a meat tree. And then, for members to get the 500 meat a day, the clan has to have 50,000 meat in stock. But we've got plenty of time to work those things out as it's going to take a while for any of us to hit level 7.

I applied to Unlikely Ninja, including the message board. Waiting for a response.

[Prudence]

I'm gonna go solo until I hit level 7. Look for me - ethelberga, with her mosquito, Bitey.

The Hidden Temple gets you lots of level up stuff, not so much food. Barrel full of Barrels can get you food and ointment, not so much leveling. Haunted pantry gets one food sometimes.

Make sure you get your tent for your campground!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Got a tent, got a car, got my mosquito. I've even managed to create a new weapon (combined a Spooky Shrunken Head wtih a Spooky Stick). But boy-howdy do bats kick my sorry butt still.

[tracilicious]

http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/viewtopic.php?t=16094&highlight=starting+clan

That's a pretty good thread about starting a clan. I applied to Unlikely Ninja last night, and just now got accepted to the forum.

I must be playing really badly. I don't have a car or a tent. I've seen the tents, where do I get a car? I've only been playing one day, so maybe I'm just not far enough.

I'm not sure how one can survive without being in a clan on the higher levels. I need lots of meat to buy stuff and I don't want to waste my adventures trying to get it. 500 free meat a day sounds good to me. Like I said though, I'm probably not a very good player. Did you get my in game message, Prudence? I'll send one to you too, GD, let me know if I'm doing it right.

[Prudence]

One of your quests from the council involves getting a car. I assume you visited the toot oriole? and are now getting missions from the council?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, like Prudence said, be sure you're visiting the council for missions. I think I'm moving a little quickly...when I've been doing quests, I'm barely scrping by, the monsters are kicking my butt. And I've received quest reward items that are too powerful for me to wear. So I think I'm supposed to have leveled up a bit more before charging into battle. But this seems to be working.

[tracilicious]

Yeah, I'm still on the rat thing. I've gotten several rat whiskers and appendixes, but they keep saying that the guy has a rat problem. Plus, in the beginning, I didn't visit the Oriole right away, because I was afraid there was some sort of secret something that I had to get before seeing him. Too much final fantasy I suppose.

[Prudence]

You have to collect a certain number of rat whiskers. You'll know when you're done.

[tracilicious]

Thanks! What am I supposed to do with Dr. Hobo's map? I equipped a scalpel, but I still fall in the wine.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I haven't figured that one out myself yet. It says something about needing something that can extend your reach...that's my only clue.

[tracilicious]

Gum on a string? I'm out of meat and adventures, so I can't test that.

[Prudence]

Whee! Kickin' bat boo-tay!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Gum on a string? I'm out of meat and adventures, so I can't test that.
Nope, I had one, didn't do squat.

[Prudence]

Buy a cool whip from the store. But I need an asparagus knife to finish the quest and the damn pantry won't give me one!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Crap, did I just use up all my adventures before 10AM?! What the hell am I going to do for the rest of the day? Work? Bleh.

Oh well. I copped out on the hobo quest and grabbed an asparagus knife from the clan stash. As for bats...well, I killed enough to get the necessary sonar biscuits (that is, after I used 3 in combat, not aware that I needed them to open the other chambers), but then the Boss Bat kicked my sorry butt. But I've since gotten a pair of bloody clown pants from the fun house, which was a significant upgrade from my knob gobblin pants (power 50 vs. 25), so I might give it another go.

[Ponine]

I'm down in a dungeon, and keep getting stuck on the fat ninja quest.... very frustrating.

[tracilicious]

I used up all my adventures by 11pm last night. :( On the bright side, I spent some time in clan chat and a higher level member gave me stuff I needed to make two new familiars. One helps with item drops and one raises stats. I've been using the item drop one for my car, but I have like 6 of everything except tires and rims. Bleh!

Also, donating $10 to the site gets you a Mr. accessory, which can be sold for $7 million meat. So I think the problem of where to get meat for the clan is solved. I don't mind donating when someone levels up.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, $10 is a small price to pay...

I got the volleyball, what familiar helps with item drops?

And, just a hint, the sweet rims can't be found in the Knoll. You've got to get them from somewhere else.

[Prudence]

I am so far behind. I spent some serious time levelling up at the temple and now I'm behind on the quests. Fun house? Where lies the fun house?

[tracilicious]

Darn it. I got the cool whip, and I had an asparagus knife, but I donated it to the clan for karma points yesterday and now they're all gone. If only someone would put one back.....;)

[tracilicious]

Yeah, $10 is a small price to pay...

Cook fairy gravy and and a Knob mushroom together with an EZ-bake. If you don't have the oven and can get the items from the can then send them to me and I'll cook it and send it back.

Thanks for the tip!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Darn it. I got the cool whip, and I had an asparagus knife, but I donated it to the clan for karma points yesterday and now they're all gone. If only someone would put one back.....;)D'oh! :( I took yours, and unfortunately you have to give it up for the quest. Once I get some adventures back, I'll head to the pantry and get you one.

I don't know what unlocked the "Fun" House, but all of a sudden, there it was on the Plains.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Cook fairy gravy and and a Knob mushroom together with an EZ-bake. If you don't have the oven and can get the items from the can then send them to me and I'll cook it and send it back.

Thanks for the tip!I'm out of both gravy and mushrooms. I've got the oven.

[Eliza Hodgkins 1812]

Holy crud, this is funny. I'm an accordian thief!

[tracilicious]

Try the clan stash. Careful, there are knoll and knob mushrooms. You need knob. Don't worry about the knife. I need to work off some booze anyways. I'll go get one tonight. Btw, sausage pizzas give you lots of adventures.

[Ghoulish Delight]

No gravy in the stash. I'll check for 'shrooms and pizzas (ramen's also good for adventures)

[Ghoulish Delight]

Ouch, 85 karma for the pizza. I'll just wait (don't want to get accused of looting just yet).

[Ghoulish Delight]

Don't know if y'all have stumbled across this yet, but if you get stuck and need help, this seems like a pretty thorough resource. KoL Wiki (http://thekolwiki.net/wiki/Main_Page)

[Ponine]

Also, donating $10 to the site gets you a Mr. accessory, which can be sold for $7 million meat. So I think the problem of where to get meat for the clan is solved. I don't mind donating when someone levels up.
now where did you hear this little tid bit o info?

[Ghoulish Delight]

now where did you hear this little tid bit o info?Click the "donate" link at the top. That's where it tells you that you get a Mr. Accessory for donating $10. I don't see where it says it's worth 7 mil. meat.

[tracilicious]

The clan forum in te making meat thread. Also, I ran into players that had more than $10 million meat last night. Seriously, the clan chat is a great place for info.

[Ponine]

I got my accessory.. that I'm cool with. He adds a ton 'o HP to you if you equip him. Who knows what else he'll do.

[Morrigoon]

You all suck... I just signed up as a seal clubber. But I don't have time right now to play, maybe tonight.

Love the "I (club) Seals" bumper sticker!

[tracilicious]

I got my accessory.. that I'm cool with. He adds a ton 'o HP to you if you equip him. Who knows what else he'll do.


Is it a familiar? What kind is it?

[tracilicious]

I'm such a dork, GD. There are like 39 asparagus knives in the clan stash. I was looking in my inventory dropdown. Sorry, my bad.

[Ghoulish Delight]

lol, cool.

I got past the Boos Bat, but only with the help of a Mr. A's Smile effect cast on me by someone from the clan.

[tracilicious]

Is anybody playing today? I'm not. I made the mistake of taking goofballs, so I had goofball withdrawl for 100 turns (which lowers your stats a ton, so I couldn't do any real adventures), so I ate lots of food and adventured in the lower levels to work it off. Then I drank lots and lots to get more adventures, which was also a mistake because I got too drunk to do anything. So now I have to wait until it resets tonight to play.

[Prudence]

I keep playing my turns at 8pm when it rolls over to the next day. So I'll be there in....1 hour and 57 minutes.

I'm still clanless (holding out for clan swank) so I'm not privy to these magical stashes. Although I did finally get an asparagus knife.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I played today. Our clan leader accidentally hit me with 5, count them 5, smiles of Mr. A, AND I just donated. So for another 150 or so turns, I've got +30 to all my stats!!! I killed the Goblin King (but don't have high enough stats to wear his crown yet). But it took most of my turns to just get the items I needed for that quest, so I didn't do much else. I need fairy gravy to continue the quest I'm on now, but the stupid Haiku Dungeon won't give it to me.

[tracilicious]

I've got some extra fairy gravy, GD. I'll send it over. Have you used any of the buff bots yet? I'm not sure what their spells do, so I haven't used them.

Come on, Pru, you know you want to join!

[tracilicious]

Oh! The barrel full of barrels is great now in case you haven't been there. I got loads of awesome items and only 2 or 3 blew up on me.

[tracilicious]

Here (http://suqur.shackspace.com/kol.html) is a site chock full of spoilers and tips, including recipes and such. If you like that kind of thing.

[tracilicious]

One step ahead as usual. Hey! It's oyster egg day! These things are great.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I wouldn't say "as usual". I JUST figured out how this whole skills thing works.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'll check the name of the one I used, but I know that sending 3 meat got an enchantment that increases item drops, 2 meat for increased meat drops.

[tracilicious]

Yeah, I'm not so good on the skills either. This bat cave is difficult. I'm using my fairy mushroom for item drops (did you make yours yet, GD?) I'm good on meat. Last night I asked a question in newbie chat and some nice millionaire gave me more than 30,000 meat. I like chat. I've never asked for anything, but I've gotten several nice gifts.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, I've got my gravy fairy. Tell me about it re: people giving you stuff. I almost have to refuse things just to keep it challenging!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Oh, and these eggs...best thing since sliced egg!

[tracilicious]

Yeah, I've got my gravy fairy. Tell me about it re: people giving you stuff. I almost have to refuse things just to keep it challenging!

No kidding. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I was starting to feel like I was cheating!

I've found out so far that the red eggs give you HP and the plastic eggs are for combat. I forget what the others do. I found out in clan chat. I'm definitely going to use mine and not try to get a full set as there's apparently no point. I LOVED the test you had to take to get into chat. It should be a prerequisite for any board. lol.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Lavander Stripe (from the bean bat cave) gives muscle and moxie. Lavander and something else, from Kobb Knobb outskirts gives mysticality and moxie.

I've been using them...but had too many and it won't let me use any more. I hope you get to keep them beyond today.

[Prudence]

Sometimes I hate being stubborn. Is chat only for clan members? I don't do chat much -- bad irc memories. I don't want to join a clan and then leave it and I *really* don't want to be turned down for membership. Oh well. I'll get to level 7 eventually.

[tracilicious]

You can go to newbie chat, Prudence. Clan chat is just for members. I don't think leaving is too big a deal. I contribute more to the clan stash than I take, and most clans are pretty big. They aren't going to miss a few members. Our clan accepts anybody that applies. If you don't want to though, I frequently go to newbie chat just to ask a question and then leave. There are like 700 people there at any given time, so don't worry about it.

Ponine and Coastermatt, are you guys still playing? (and anybody else from the beginning of the thread that I'm forgetting.)

[tracilicious]

Too bad you weren't fighting the boss bat on oyster day, GD. A lavender plastic oyster egg took him out in one shot.

[Ponine]

No, I'm still there.... lvl 3... moving along in the world.
Have my mosquito Spike, and a cottage.. and lets see.. eight eggs.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Too bad you weren't fighting the boss bat on oyster day, GD. A lavender plastic oyster egg took him out in one shot.
Where'd you pick up that one?

[tracilicious]

I don't exactly remember. Probably either the entrance to the bat cave or guano junction, as those are pretty much the only places I went before fighting him. I'm pretty sure it was the entrance.

How'd you get a cottage Ponine? I still just have my tent.

[Ghoulish Delight]

A cottage is cottage cheese combined with anticheese. Or, there's the barskin tent (which I have) which is Bar skin combined with wooden stakes.

[tracilicious]

Darn it, I've eaten so many cottage cheeses. I'll have to go get the ingredients. I had no idea these things were even out there. This is why I need spoiler pages. lol

But I did figure out how to get into the bugbear bakery. I was so proud of myself.

[Ponine]

How'd you get a cottage Ponine? I still just have my tent.
I bought it. :blush:

Do you need one? Or would buying you a cottage with my million meat and giving it to you be too much like cheating?
If you would like a cottage, let me know.

[Prudence]

I would like a cottage! I'm not above getting trinkets and more from LoTers! (look for ethelberga)

If I've got anything anyone wants/needs, let me know!

[Morrigoon]

Feh, I just acquired my first gum on a string....oh and a useless trinket, which, knowing the game design, will probably be useful in the future, no?

[Morrigoon]

Is there any reason to put stuff in the cupboard?

[Ponine]

I would like a cottage! I'm not above getting trinkets and more from LoTers! (look for ethelberga)

Check your messages. My buddy sent you one. He's the one with 6 million meat.

Feh, I just acquired my first gum on a string....oh and a useless trinket, which, knowing the game design, will probably be useful in the future, no? Yes, dont throw it out!

[Prudence]

Feh, I just acquired my first gum on a string....oh and a useless trinket, which, knowing the game design, will probably be useful in the future, no?

They can be traded for useful things! Have you done the toot oriole?

[Morrigoon]

Yeah.

Also got gum on a string and got stuff out of the grate (worthless trinket)

[Prudence]

Did you get your hermit permit?

[tracilicious]

I bought it. :blush:

Do you need one? Or would buying you a cottage with my million meat and giving it to you be too much like cheating?
If you would like a cottage, let me know.


Teehee, nothing is too much like cheating for me. Except perhaps actual cheating. I already bought the ingredients and made one, though. Thanks anyways. What I wish is that someone could make me both a master sauceror and a master pastamancer so that I could make Hell Ramen (which gives you 25 turns). But you can't so oh well.

If anybody needs items than feel free to post it here. I'll help if I've got something. We can think of it as our temporary LoT clan stash. Ponine are you in a clan yet? You seem to be doing very well in the game.

[Morrigoon]

No, no hermit permit

[Prudence]

No, no hermit permit

Well, then buy yourself a hermit permit at the market! He'll be more than happy to take that worthless trinket off your hands.

[Ponine]

I am not in a clan yet. My other half could start one if he wanted, but he wants it to be the board clan since y'all turned me on to the game.
I'm only a level 4.

You made a cottage? How cool!!!!!
Dan is willing to start the Clan , but he doesnt want to lead it.

[Prudence]

I'd lead, but I'm still level 4.

[tracilicious]

Oyster egg spoilers (http://kol.thraeryn.org/eggs2.php)

I'm a level five, and I think GD might be too. I don't mind leading, but I'd rather have a board of directors type role. If I'm the first to level 7 than I don't mind starting one. If that happens than three or four of us can be in charge. Of what? I don't know. Probably just in case our clan eventually grows to larger than the LoT group.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I'm on the verge of level 6. Another couple days or so I should be at 7.

[tracilicious]

Awesome! I need to gain 3 muscle to get to level 6. I don't know how long that will take me. Three or four days? The nice thing about having some meat is being able to buy food for more adventures. The site is so stinking slow to load though. It's killing me.

[Disneyphile]

I signed up last night, but haven't had the chance to play yet.

Damn you all. This is just another thing for me to get addicted to. :p

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, the lag's been awful. If I could use another egg today, I'd already be level 6, but I've eaten my fill it seems. So tomorrow I'll hit 6. Considering how long I was at 5, getting to 7 might still take a while. I'm going to feel a little bad about ditching on the current clan. SeaSparkzz has been really really nice to me and I think she's been glad to see someone else on in the day when there's almost no activity...but I'll get over it ;)

[tracilicious]

I'll feel bad for the same reason. But not that bad. I never see you in clan chat. We must be on at alternate times. I've only been at five for a day, so I'm going to get as many muscle eggs as I can in the hopes of making it go more quickly. Hurry up and level up so we can get a clan going!

Disneyphile! Yay our little potential clan keeps growing. Michael started an account yesterday, but hasn't played yet. He'll join too I'm sure.

[Prudence]

I've got six eggs left what give muscle points. Anyone want to trade for moxie eggs?

[tracilicious]

I don't have any moxie eggs, but I'd gladly buy them from you. Cobb's knob is kicking my stick bootie. Name your price.

[Prudence]

I sent ya' two. If you've got anything to help me level up that would be swell. Food, preferably, as I'm apparently already drunk.

[tracilicious]

I'll see what I can get for ya. Careful with the drinking. If you drink too much you can't adventure worth a crap. A good thing to do is to drink all your alcohol after you run out of turns, or just before it resets. Your turns carry over, but the drunkenness doesn't.

[tracilicious]

Ok, check your messages.

[Prudence]

When I get drunk, I go for the barrels or the hidden temple.

[tracilicious]

Smart thinking with the barrels. Where is the hidden temple?

[tracilicious]

Woohoo!! I'm level six! Try Knob sausage chow mein. It gives 75 muscle points.

[Ghoulish Delight]

For the hidden temple, you need the Hidden Temple map, equip a cool whip, and have an asparagus knife in your inventory. Use the map, and that opens the temple which is in the forest.

[Prudence]

Actually, I think you need the map, the spooky sapling, and the fertilizer. The cool whip and the asparagus knife are for Dr. Hobo's quest.

[tracilicious]

I don't even have the map. Where did you find it?

[tracilicious]

You guys should try to get a meat maid. It's four extra turns per day if you have one. You need a meat engine, a skull (not the exact name, but I forget what it is), a curly wig, and a frilly skirt.

[Prudence]

Where do you get the skull? You get the map in the spooky forest.

[tracilicious]

I got it from someone in chat. It's a brainy skull. I have no idea how to find/make one other than to buy it from the mall or the flea market.

[Prudence]

Oooh! I'm level 5 now! I can use the mall!

Where do you get the pizzas? Do you bake them?

[Ghoulish Delight]

You need flat dough to make pizzas, but I think you can only do it if you've ascended. Traci and I get 'em from the clan.

I've been too busy to be on much today. Just long enough to get to level 6.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I want everyone to know that I'm breathlessly following this thread. All the names are hilarious. I can't wait until you guys have your own clan. :D

What'll you call it?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Loathing of Tomorrow?

[Disneyphile]

Nice!!! LOL!!!

I just discovered that I can play this at work, and still get my work done, since I have to run some database queries that take awhile. :D

Anyway, I'm at level 3 for now. Same screenname as here. I'll keep an eye out for the clan! :D

In the meantime, does anyone know a good place to find food?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Dude, I just breezed through the Deep Fat Friars quest. Got some awesome equpiment out of it (icy hot kitana which is power 90, hot ninja pants power 90, and golden arches which let me get evil food once a day) and major stat increases. I'm already half way to level 7!

[Prudence]

Do you have to finish the bat cave quest first before getting that one?

I'm finally up to level five, but I'm drunk so no more turns until 8pm PDT.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Don't know if you have to finish the bat quest, but I think you have to be level 6.

[Ponine]

you guys are gonna pass me up over the weekend. I wont get back till Monday.
Just dont forget me when you start the clan!!! :)
I have a maid... but not a meat maid.

[Ghoulish Delight]

This weekend is all about MA.

[Disneyphile]

Do the 40 adventures accumulate each day? So, like if I'm not on this weekend, I'll come back to 120 on Monday?

[Ponine]

Fair enough. But I was hoping to catch up to you GD!

Where do we stand on the clan talk? I know Tracilicuos was seeming to imply I should get it up and running but I dont have the levels yet.
GD, are you interested?

or should we just sit tight for now.... feelings?
Other than a clan name. :)

[Ponine]

Do the 40 adventures accumulate each day? So, like if I'm not on this weekend, I'll come back to 120 on Monday?
DP, do you have food?? Eat some food before 7 tonigoht and that will add to your adventures. But yes, they stack up.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I figure whoever hits 7 first should go ahead and get it started. I don't mind doing it, nor do I mind if someone else does it. Just post here before you do to make sure we don't do it twice.

[Prudence]

Then I guess I have a while to wait. :(

[Disneyphile]

Btw - there's a "Loathers of Tomorrow" clan already.

How about "Clan Swank"? :)

[Ghoulish Delight]

Adventure thru InnerLoathe?

[Disneyphile]

Loathing Thru InnerSwank

Lounge of Swanky Loathing

???

[tracilicious]

To make pizza you need a wad of dough (disguise yourself as a bugbear and buy one at the bakery) and a tomato. Then you can combine it with another ingredient for the topping, ie mushroom, sausage etc.

How bout Lounge Loathing?

[Prudence]

Adventure thru InnerLoathe?

ooh! me like!

[Disneyphile]

Or Adventure Thru InnerLoathing

(Makes it sound like we hate ourselves. LOL!)

How bout Lounge Loathing?Wad of dough? I thought it was flat dough. Wad of dough you can get in the Cobb's Knob Kitchen.

I used a wad of dough and it worked. Now I just need to know where to find some sausage.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Guess what...I'm level 7! *does a happy dance*

So once we pick a name, we'll be good to go.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Traci and I, being the only ones on this morning, made the executive decision. Say hello to "Swankers of Loathing"! Apply for membership (be sure to include a name I know you by if it's different than your KoL name) and we'll get this thing rolling.

[tracilicious]

Is it started GD? I'll go look.

[libraryvixen]

I'm a level 2. I hope to be level 3 soon. I'm the "Bookish Bombshell" on KoL.

[Prudence]

I've applied! (ethelberga.) Do you mind if my husband, bunny travolta, joins?

[wendybeth]

I applied too! (Wendolyn)

[libraryvixen]

Huzzah!! I am a Level 3!!

[tracilicious]

My husband, mdnsmash, also applied. I'm guessing it will be tomorrow before GD gets around to approving people.

[wendybeth]

Huzzah!! I am a Level 3!!

Me too!:D

[blueerica]

OK - folks - I've signed up as HoLoTta Bacon...

I'm trying to figure this whole thing out... OY! While everyone is away at Mouse Adventure!

[wendybeth]

Still don't exactly know what I'm doing, but I'm a level 4!

Edited to add: Damn you Prudence!!!

[Prudence]

Edited to add: Damn you Prudence!!!


:evil:

[blueerica]

Today is MEAT DAY!!

[wendybeth]

Lol! I look at some players meat (get your head out of the gutter) and I am astounded at the ginormous amounts.

I have meat envy.

[Prudence]

What the hell is meat day?

[CoasterMatt]

I'm UberBeavis, a level 4 Chord Horker...

[wendybeth]

What the hell is meat day?

I guess today is....I was lurking in Chat and they were all talking about it. That, and bragging about their meat piles.:rolleyes:

Hey, UberBeavis!:snap:Have you joined up with the Swankers?

[wendybeth]

I guess I got pasted on some frou-frou girly drinks, and now I'm making poor judgements in my Adventures.

I'm gonna go make some Clan deposits (no, not hurl matter) and give up until tomorrow when I will apparently sober up.

Who'd a thought 'Sump'm-Sump'ms' were so strong?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Okay, now that I'm back at work, I have time for this again :D

It looks like not everyone who's posted here has applied for the clan. If you need instructions how, let us know.

Traci's been bumped up to "Grooviest of Cats", so she's got full administrative power. And I see she's made some purchases (meat tree, muscle training). Hopefully we'll quickly accumulate the necessary meat (1 million I believe) for everyone to be getting the 500/day meat bonus. Plus we still need to purchase a calander to get the 3/day adventure bonus. Those are top priority. If you've got meat to spare, please spare. Once Ponine gets a chance to sign up, I believe she said her husband's well ahead of all of us in the game and should have lots of resources for us. Solid.

[Ponine]

All right, I'll go now. I'll apply.
The s.o. applied, he's Psuedo...
Get with the program GD, you'll have meat. :P

[Ghoulish Delight]

Done and done!

[Brigitte]

Well, thanks to you swanky people, now I have a new addiction. I'm Brigitte there too and I applied to your clan :)

Now if only I could figure out how to get unlimited adventures...I'm out already this morning :(

[Ghoulish Delight]

You're approved. And we're now rolling in meat (eeew). We've got a well stocked meat coffer, a calander (so there's a few extra adventures for you, Brigette), and a fully stocked gym. 10 members and growing, a respectable clan stash. Not bad, not bad at all.

[Brigitte]

Looks good, but I'm out of adventures for the day. What's the calendar? Is that something I'm missing?

[Ghoulish Delight]

The calandar is an item purchased for the clan. As of tomorrow, you'll be getting 3 extra adventures per day thanks to it.

Other than that, eat food and drink booze to get more adventures. Also, you'll eventually be able to get items that will get you extra adventures.

[wendybeth]

Just don't drink too m uch- you make poor choices, like sleeping with Gnolls.:blush:

[tracilicious]

Cool! Hey GD, how did you get a Mr. accesory?

[wendybeth]

I can't speak for GD, but I know that is one of the gifts you get for donating to the site. (Read that at the fansite).

Hey- cool gym! I worked out, studied, caught a few rays....feel much better. Still falling down drunk, but in good shape otherwise!

[Brigitte]

analog is my sister, btw, we drew her in as well ;)

[tracilicious]

I accepted her brigitte, disneyphile is in now too!

[Brigitte]

Thank you!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yup, I just forked over the $10 for the Mr. Accessory.

[wendybeth]

I tried, but the PayPal link isn't working. I'll try again later, when I sober up.:D

[Ghoulish Delight]

Wendy, I also hear you don't know how to get into clan chat. At the chat prompt just type "/join clan" (sans quotes, of course).

[wendybeth]

Thanks! I got my Mr. Accessory, just got to figure out what it's use is, if any. I borrowed a few items from the stash, but only things there are multiples of (to finish a quest) and I replaced them with needed items.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Equip your Mr. Accessory (it's an accessory...pretty clever eh?). It give a +15 bonus to all 3 stats.

[wendybeth]

Done! Tyvm!

This game is truly addicting,

Damn (bless) Prudence! She needs to have some sort of High Honorary Honor in the Clan for leading us to this accursed place. Or, we could just give her some meat paste......

[Prudence]

<applies back of hand to forehead>

And I don't even have admin status!

</woe is me>

But I did finally make a meat maid!

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, I just got me one of those maids myself!

You want clan admin status? Honestly, I don't see any reason not to make everyone here admins in the clan. I just figured most people didn't want to deal with it. No sense having options you'll never care to use. But like I said before, if you want it, let me know and I'll make it happen.

[tracilicious]

Do we have any rules as to admittance? I'd rather keep it posters or people connected to posters, personally. I think open membership would get tricky. Kind of like what we have going here at the LoT. That way we can all trust each other and not have many rules. If we let random people in then we'll have to worry about them raiding the stash for their own profit. Anyone disagree?

[Disneyphile]

I totally agree that the clan should be by invitation/previous connection only.

[Prudence]

I guess it doesn't matter any more. Apparently my character's "sick" and will die and I'll have to start over. Some ha-ha columbus day thrill. I'm so sick of that crap. Thank you so much KoL for teaching me a lesson about how much I suck. I should just hack up my body now and send each piece back to the country it "came from." It's all my fault. I stole land from the Indians, I enslaved the Africans, and I'm single-handedly responsible for every ethnic cleansing ever conducted. Whatever.

[Disneyphile]

What?!?!?!

[tracilicious]

Once again, I really really really don't believe anyone will die. Neither does any player I've ever encountered. I'll explain the plague for those of you who don't know about it.

On Columbus Day Jick (the creator of the game) sent out infected blankets to random players. Then people started coughing in chat. Now some people's text in chat has faded to grey. That's it. I've heard a theory (that I passed on to Prudence) that chat text of infected people might become temporarily invisible and chat will be difficult for a day (or whatever amount of time).

I really don't think anyone will die.

No one ever said anyone would die.

Relax.


btw...I'm sick too. And happy about it. It's a fun game.

[tracilicious]

I also don't think it is a slam on white people. Only a message about the ridiculousness of Columbus day. He didn't discover America, and he killed lots of Native Americans.

[libraryvixen]

I say, keep it exclusive (says the person with the LEAST amount of anything on the KoL)

[Prudence]

And this is why I swore I'd never play a MUD or anything like them ever again. Eventually the creator or the organizers or whomever decide that they need to make the game more fun for THEM, and they start messing with the player characters. And if they run the game, it's their prerogative to do that. And it's my prerogative to take my time elsewhere.

Some people in the forums said that people were turning invisible and that there was no remedy for it. Maybe there is a remedy. Maybe there isn't. I don't want to put a bunch of time into this only to have to restart so that this Jick person can get his jollies.

Been there, done that too many times to count.

[Prudence]

Also, the theory I've heard most often is that there's a perceived problem with people having multiple accounts, so they are killing off lots of characters to reduce the population.

Most often? You just found out about the plague an hour ago. I've been watching this for a week and I haven't heard that. All the really experienced players I've talked to aren't worried, and neither am I. I might be wrong. No big loss if I am. There are some things I'd like to do differently anyways.

There are a thousand people signing up a day. Killing off people isn't going to help them. They'd be back to the same in a week.

[tracilicious]

I just let my little brother in. He's mrdavebkr.

a) It's been more than an hour. b) I read lots of forums -- both site sponsored and not.

I guess lots of people think it's fun to restart. I don't. Whatever.

Do the admins want me to officially leave the clan?

[tracilicious]

No! I didn't mean it to sound like that, I just think that you're overreacting a bit. I don't want you to leave at all! Please stay!

[Ponine]

I just let my little brother in. He's mrdavebkr.
I jsut saw him... wondered who he was. ;)

I just told Bunny Travolta to tell Pru she could stay via KoL chat. I hadnt read this first so I had no idea why he was asking, but none the less... Pru... STAY! please.

[wendybeth]

Prudence, don't leave! Seriously, don't take this game so seriously. What we should do is help out our sick members- replenish their stuff asap if it does evaporate. Is it only chatters that get sick? If so, lets start a YM chat group instead.

[Prudence]

Look, I'm just trying to get out before I get more upset. If my character is now being killed off by the game creator for some ha-ha Columbus Day morality play, that's really going to piss me off and I am *damn* glad that I didn't donate today like I had planned. If that's how this Jick person wants to run his game, then it's his choice. But I don't like playing a game where my character will spontaneously be killed just because the creator feels like it. I realize that some people think that's all in fun and like starting over, but I'm not one of them.

[wendybeth]

Well, at least hang on until you know for sure that's the case, okay? They have a twisted sense of humor, no doubt, but I don't think it's that twisted...I hope.


I'm fighting a WereTaco.

Where's Nirvanaman when you need him?

[Gemini Cricket]

For some reason, I can't play KoL. It's really, really slow and then suddenly it just stops. It must be a Mac thing.
:(

[Ghoulish Delight]

It's probably not just you, GC. The geam gets really laggy at several points during the day.

Honestly, I'd hoped that since I was the one that first posted about it that I'd at least get admin status. But I suppose the traditional model is that only a few are "in charge," so to speak. Otherwise, too many chefs and all that. You got to level 7 first so it's your show. I'm going to create a new account and start over anyhow.

[Brigitte]

It can't be a Mac thing, I'm on a Mac and have had no problems, not even a lag. Maybe it's just too busy when you're there or something. What browser are you using?

[Morrigoon]

Do you have to be a certain level to join a clan? I'm only level 2 as of this morning.

Also, I just acquired a bowl of cottage cheese. Isn't there something about making a cabin from that? And the bird on Mt. Noob told me to put his action figure together with meat paste... how on earth do I do that?

[tracilicious]

You need to be level 3 to join. Save your cottage cheese until you can join, there is some anti-cheese in the stash. Make some meat paste in your inventory, then select "combine stuff" to put the doll together. You should be level 3 soon, come join!

[Morrigoon]

How do I make meat paste in my inventory?

[wendybeth]

I finally figured out how to get rims for my car, but I have to wait until later (for more Adventures) to get the item. Then I have to figure out the order to build it....
We should have a wish list section at the Clan central for people that need certain items but can't find it in the stash. I have no idea what items I have others might need, so I've just been dumping any extra's into the stash.

Morri- get busy, girl, and jine up!:snap:Let me know if you need any items- I'd be happy to share any info or stuff I may have.

[wendybeth]

How do I make meat paste in my inventory?

In your inventory, click on 'Miscellaneous Items'- at the bottom of the page is the area where you make Meat Paste. It takes ten Meat to make Paste.

[tracilicious]

How do I make meat paste in my inventory?

Go to miscellaneous, scroll all the way down and you should see the option to make it. I had a hard time with that too. :)

[Prudence]

A caution: If you don't want to get the "grey plague," do not accept items from other players, participate in chat, or take items from the clan stash. Conversely, if you *want* the plague, all three of those behaviors should help you catch it.

[wendybeth]

Prudence, check out this thread if you want some more info on the Plague: Grey Plague (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/viewtopic.php?t=43384&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=1260).

I've read through a fair amount of it, and it seems the plague may not be the bad thing you think it is. At any rate, there are remedies. It's more of a mystery, and apparently things like this happen in the Kingdom. Keeps things interesting, and people on their toes.

[wendybeth]

Heh heh- a lot of people are trying to catch this thing.

Yes, but if you read more into the history of KoL goings-on you'll note that there's also a history of things that require lots of meat to fix or that otherwise make it impossible for newer players to continue on until the little diversion has ended. They're seen as fixes for unbalanced economies and proliferation of "multis." Look for "mafia" threads from 11/04, for one example.

Do I know what will happen now? Of course not. Maybe nothing will happen. Maybe my character will magically get better. Maybe the "cure" will be obtainable by people whose meat totals aren't in the millions. Or maybe not. I don't know. I do know that I can't chat any more, which makes it less fun for me. Some people think it makes things interesting. I think it makes things annoying when I have to keep restarting. Just my personal opinion.

[Prudence]

Heh heh- a lot of people are trying to catch this thing.

If you want it and don't yet have it, just let me know and I'll do my best to infect you.

[wendybeth]

Gee, thanks Prudence- mighty nice of you to offer, but just as I refuse to take my kid to Chicken Pox parties, I prefer to catch these things the old fashioned way: unknowingly.

I refuse to take any game so seriously that it would make me cranky if something happened. I know I'm new to it, it's been around a long while and I trust they'd like to keep it going. As it stands now, I like the sense of humor they have and I am going to wait until I have some more experience and knowledge of the game before I pass judgement.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Aaargh, I can't beat the flippin' Bonerdagon. I don't know what else to do. I'm wearing the lihc face, which gives spooky protection, and ate a lihc eye pie, which gives more spooky protection, and he STILL kicks me ass. Grrr.

[wendybeth]

There seems to be a 'cure' of sorts for the Grey Plague (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/viewtopic.php?t=43912).

[Ghoulish Delight]

Hmm, two questions. Where is the Doc Galaktik, and if I take this Cure, will I just get sick again? And how the heck do people get so much meat?!

[wendybeth]

As you ascend, you get more stuff, which you can sell for more meat. Also, the rewards get better.

The 'Cure' seems temporary, but there seem to be other cures as well. People are speculating as to whether a new quest will arise from the situation, which is probable.

And I just built a Bitchin' Meat Car!:snap:

[wendybeth]

Doc has a shop in the Market, I believe.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Perhaps we should, as a clan, work on getting enough of the cure for all of us before anyone takes it. That way we only have to take it once. Should reduce the risk of recurrance, as long as we don't hang out in public chat channels for a while.

[wendybeth]

I think ultimately everyone will get it- there are people in the Forum who got it when they weren't engaging in any 'risky' behavior. I thought the same thing regarding the Cure.

[Ponine]

I think that's a good idea. Is the Bonerdragon in the crypt? I can't get past the first part of it. Last I checked we're really close in stats, where did you get the equipment for it?

[Disneyphile]

Total mojo to KoL for this Disney reference:

As you tiptoe through the harem (which is a lot like tiptoeing through the tulips, but with better scenery), you see what looks like a hippopotamus wearing a tutu run across the corridor up ahead. You hurry down the hall and through the door the hippo went through.

You find yourself in a courtyard surrounded by columns. It's much more pleasant than that time you found yourself living in a shotgun shack. As you watch, dumbfounded, tutu-clad hippos perform a ballet with cape-wearing crocodiles. You watch for over an hour, just waiting to see one of the crocodiles get crushed or one of the hippos get noshed. Neither thing happens, but you do feel more cultured for having sat through an entire ballet.

You also resolve to lay off the herbal brownies.

:snap:

[Ghoulish Delight]

Heehee, yeah, loved that.

Traci, I probably had a Smile of Mr. A effect on me at the time that I cleared the first part . That plus the Mr. Accessory I have really makes me badass.

For the equpiment, the Lihc Face is dropped by the giant Lihc which is one of the mini-bosses in the first part of the Crypt. The Lihc Eye is dropped by a regular ol' Lihc in the Cemetary. Lihc Eye Pie = Lihc Eye + Pie Curst (pie crust being wad of dough + Gnollish pie tin).

[Ponine]

Oh I know. I'm just venting.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to derail a good vent. Vent away my good man.

So... I became level three this morning during some pre-commute adventuring. Now, how do I join?

[Ghoulish Delight]

By the way, I'm considering starting up a second character. Mostly because it means twice the adventurin' a day...I don't think I quite have the patience or capacity to do the fancy things that many players do with their "multis". I just wanted to get a consensus, can anyone think of a reason to not allow us members to have multiple characters in the clan? Since we all know each other (or are at most once removed from knowing each other), I think it goes without saying that no one here would abuse the clan stash. As I see it, the more characters, the more opportunity to ADD to the stash. Anyone think of something I'm missing?

Can't do it now though... I won't play from work.

I've been meaning to ask the same thing. I was thinking about getting a multi just to cook for the clan. I don't mind, but every pizza I make costs two adventures.

[Prudence]

Do you have a chef-in-the-box? That takes away the adventuring cost. I'm working on the bartender-in-the-box.

I appreciate your cooking!:snap: I really haven't got that angle figured out yet- do I need the Easycook oven? I finally smithed something, and built my meat car. I've got like four or five quests going, so I need to just hunker down and do each one, rather than going all over the place like I have been.:rolleyes:

I like the idea of multi's- why not? Let me know what you decide.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Oooh, I knew of no such thing. Goodness, now I wish I hadn't wasted all those lihc eyes on lihc eye pies that got me nowhere.


edit: errr, nix that. Was thinking of something else. It's the disembodied brains that I need. I've got tons of smart skulls, need to brains for a brainy skull.

[wendybeth]

I've got a brain I'm not using yet- lol. Want it?

[Ghoulish Delight]

I've got a brain I'm not using yet- lol. Want it?
Naw, keep it. I'll come up with one soon enough. There are other ingredients I need anyway.

Naw, keep it. I'll come up with one soon enough. There are other ingredients I need anyway.

I've got lots of stuff I can't figure out a use for yet- post what you need and if I got it it's yours. I've a ways to go before I'm dealing with what you are now.

[tracilicious]

Do you have a chef-in-the-box? That takes away the adventuring cost. I'm working on the bartender-in-the-box.

I don't. That's a good idea. But the multi could also use it's money to buy ingredients. Each sausage pizza also costs 300 meat to get ingredients for. I could get it a toaster and make toast everyday, and some evil golden arches, plus I could make it a sauceror or a pastamancer so that eventually we could have hell ramen.

Yeah, you do need the oven. I haven't smithed anything yet. I'm not sure what to smith.

[Prudence]

I was thinking of making a pastamancer character since we seem to not have as many of them.

For brains: I've had more luck in Farnsworthy's Tower than in the cemetery getting brains. I need brains and smart skull to complete my bartender-in-the-box. I've already got another nothing-in-the-box and beer goggles.

I definitely suggest making the chef-in-the-box a priority for anyone that doesn't have one yet.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Yeah, I don't think I've ever gotten brains in the Cemetary, only the tower. And usually pretty easily in the tower. I need that plus a box and I'll be good to go on the chef. Then it's on the bartender.

[wendybeth]

I'm a Pastamancer!:D I don't know why, as i don't especially like pasta, but there you have it.

Traci- I smithed a meat helmet- not sure what it's good for, though.

[Ponine]

Okay GD.. I took your advice and went to the Town Council.. see the spoiler box.

We've received word that the owner of the Typical Tavern, in the Distant Woods, is having a bit of a rat problem. I'm sure he'd reward you if you took care of it for him.

The Council requires another task of you, Adventurer. You must slay the Boss Bat. He can be found in the deepest part of the Bat Hole, in the Nearby Plains. Slay him, and return to us with proof of your conquest.

We've gotten word, Adventurer, that the Knob Goblins, who normally keep to themselves over at Cobb's Knob, are planning a major military action against Seaside Town.

We need for you to go deep into the Knob, and nip this problem in the bud, so to speak, by neutralizing the Goblin King.

We've marked your map with the location of the secret entrance that will allow you to go inside the Knob. Many Bothans died to... oh, wait, never mind. That was something else.

Recently, an aura of extreme Spookiness has begun to emanate from within the Cyrpt, near the Misspelled Cemetary. We fear that some horrible monster has taken up residence there, and begun to rile up the local undead.

Would you be so good as to investigate?

You look like you need a vacation, Adventurer. Down at the Shore, they have a wide variety of relaxing trips available. Unfortunately, it's pretty far away, so you'll need a car to get there.

Also unfortunately, there are no more car dealers left in the Kingdom since that Pork Elf Wizard came through here a few years ago. You'll have to build your own car. You should be able to find almost all of the parts for it down at Degrassi Knoll. It's in the Nearby Plains.

We have received news that might be of interest to you, Adventurer. In the Dark and Dank and Sinister Cave, deep beneath the Big Mountains, our agents have detected the presence of a dangerous foe: The Spirit of New Wave.

Gee.... NOW y'all tell me............... :rolleyes:

lol! You've got yourself some catching up to do. On the bright side, you'll be acquiring a whole lot of stats, items, and meat in the process.

Gee.... NOW y'all tell me............... To be fair, the Toot Oriole told ya'. :p

Wendy -

Here's the answer:
You need to equip a Cool Whip and have an Asparagus Knife in your inventory.

Or, here's a hint:
This quest is a spoof on Indiana Jones. ;)

How dumb am I? I JUST noticed that it's "Cyrpt" not "Crypt". Duh.

Nay nay... the Toot Oriole told me to see the council, I did.
I did that first quest. What no one ever told me was that I should go back!

I created March Hare the pastamancer -- primarily with the hope of being able to chat without infecting people, at least until my other character has reached a level of being able to reach the area where the (temporary) cure lives.

Another clan is doing trick or treating. You can send one message a day to: Aflubadubdub

and that message should read:
Trick or Meat

and you will get a gift.
I got a goat.
