Return to Contents General questions 1. What is the purpose of this game? To get chicks. Seriously, though. The purpose is to slay Lamia. 2. How do I find Lamia? You can't. Well, sort of. You can't find him until you've reached a certain level. When you're at that level, it will be immediately obvious. 3. How do I increase my level? Send us money. No, don't send money - you increase your experience by fighting creatures in the woods. Once you've gotten enough experience, you can challenge your master in town. Well, you can send us money if you want (see PayPal link). 4. Why can't I beat my master? He's far too wily for the likes of you. Did you ask him if you have enough experience? Have you tried purchasing some armor or weapons in the town? 5. I used up all my turns. How do I get more? Send money. No, put your wallet away. There *are* a few ways to get an extra turn or two, but by and large you just have to wait for tomorrow. When a new day comes you'll have more energy. Don't bother asking us what those few ways are - some things are fun to find on your own. 6. When does a new day start? Right after the old one ends. 7. Arghhh, you guys are killing me with your smart answers - can't you just give me a straight answer? Nope. Well, okay, new days correspond with the clock in the town (can also be viewed from other places). When the clock strikes midnight, expect a new day to begin. The number of times a clock in RoDRPG strikes midnight per calendar day may vary by server. Beta server has 4 play days per calendar day, main server at LotGD.net has 2. Other servers depend on the admin. This server has 12 days per calendar day. 8. Something's gone wrong!!! How do I let you know? Send money. Better yet, send a petition. A petition should not say 'this doesn't work' or 'I'm broken' or 'I can't log in' or 'yo. Sup?' A petition *should* be very complete in describing *what* doesn't work. Please tell us what happened, what the error message is (copy and paste is your friend), when it occurred, and anything else that may be helpful. "I'm broken" is not helpful. "There are salmon flying out of my monitor when I log in" is much more descriptive as well as humorous, although there's not much we can do about it. In general, please be patient with these requests - many people play the game, and as long as the admin is swamped with 'yo - Sup?' petitions, it will take some time to sift through them. 9. What if all I have to say is 'yo - sup?'? If you don't have something nice (or useful, or interesting, or creative that adds to the general revelry of the game) to say, don't say anything. But if you do want to converse with someone, send them an email. 10. How do I use emotes? Type :, ::, or /me before your text. /npc will allow you emote without your name being visible. 11. What's an emote? Freshman AnObviousAnswer punches you in the gut. That's an emote. You can emote in town if you want to do an action rather than simply speaking. 12. How do you get colors in your name/title? Every new player, alts not included, can petition in for their colors, name and title, to be changed as a one time courtesy. After which donator points are required to change your name and or title. This can be done from the Lodge. Please see the color test box for all the free color codes. Additionally there are colors fades available for purchase with adequate donator points. They are listed below as followed: Rainbow ? Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Blood = Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Fire + Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Water ] Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Air | Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Earth [ Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Magic , Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Wolf { Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Vampire } Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Cappuccino . Long example: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. If you have used DP to unlock the faded text, and you want to use the faded text as your title or name color, you must petition in to have this done. In the petition, please include exactly how you want your title and or name to be spelled. Likewise, know this: If you want your title and or name changed back to the colors of your choice, you will also need to petition in to have the fade undone. If you attempt to change your colors yourself, once an a administrator has given you the faded text, you will receive an error message that says 'Your new name does not match your old name.' and your color code will not work. 13. Sup dOOd, iz it cool 2 uz common IM wurds in the village? Cuz u no, it's faster. R u down wit that? NO, for the love of Tatsel, use full words and good grammar, PLEASE! These are not words: U, R, Ur, Cya, K, Kay, d00d, L8tr, sup, na and anything else like that! 14. Does that Curious Looking Package have a purpose? Of course it does! It confuses newbies! Seriously, a wise man once said, "Good things come to those who wait." This should also be applied to the Package. But seriously, click it and find out. It will take you to an area where OOC (out of character) talk is allowed. 15. Wow, there are mounts AND familiars in the pet shoppe! Can I have one of each? (Oh for the love of... [we get this question a lot]) No! Not! Nix! Nada! You can only have one creature (or ride) at a time. Not two. Certainly not three. Four is right out. Five? You must be joking! Now all together now, HOW many companion creatures (or rides) can you have at a time? 16. Why not? Because we're assholes. Actually, the game's code just doesn't allow for that right now. It might in the next version, then again it might not. Please stop asking! 17. What's with the <CLAN> thingies before peoples' names? <CLAN> Clan Member ClanMember strikes you with the flat side of his weapon. "You dare claim ignorance of my clan's famous deeds? I am ClanMember, a member of the mighty clan CLAN, which is short for Completely Ludicrous And Nonsensical! We have performed many a deed after having planned it in the privacy of our Clan Hall. Our leaders and officers are among the mightiest in the land. Bolstered by the support of our friends and clanmates, we prevail!" 18. I am so confused! What is going on in the village square/Garden/Inn/etc.? A hubbub. The fact is that because there's so many people, there can be several conversations happening at once in any given area. Also, the thing to understand is that not all the comments are posted immediately, and that sometimes a person won't press the refresh or add button for several minutes, during which time more comments could have been said that the person missed while they were typing their own. Not to worry, though. Don't be shy, join in! Return to Contents |
