The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Thursday, January 4 2007 15:15 Profile #16 quote: Originally written by Emperor Tullegolar: The Mystic, and people like him, they're just cowards. Judge not, lest you be judged. Everyone chooses a side (or no side) for different reasons. For me, cowardice is not among them. I just don't like fighting outside of computer games, that's all. Be thankful you called me a coward in the virtual realm, for if it had been to my face, I'd eat you alive. :mad: quote: Originally written by Emperor Tullegolar: No matter who wins, they lose, because you will be found eventually, no matter how hard you try to hide. How little you know me. I can hide in plain sight, and have been known to move quickly and silently, despite the fact that I appear slow and awkward to most people. You may have passed me on the street, and would never be the wiser for it. Plus, "The Mystic" is an old nickname of mine, and not without reason. I'm mildly clairvoyant, and the trait runs in the family. Therefore, there's a good chance I'd be long gone before I'd be found. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

SubTerra levelpack 2006 in SubTerra

Got them. If they're not possible, I'll see what I can do to fix them, like I've been doing with the "Push-It" levelset (which I'm still working on), and post them on the other board. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

SubTerra levelpack 2006 in SubTerra
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, January 3 2007 22:04 Profile #4 I got the new pack, and congrats to the winners. By comparison, I'm surprised some of my levels made it into the pack at all. quote: Originally written by Zeviz: Radiant, could you also upload the 2001 levelpack. (The official version of SubTerra is missing it.) If I remember correctly, it's included as part of the 2002 pack. Also, by the end of 2007, I plan to submit enough levels to make a small pack of my own. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

War in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, January 3 2007 17:07 Profile #8 I don't really care for war, whether real of fictional. In the shaper/rebel war, I'd prefer to be an unaligned shaper, far from the fighting as possible. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

what did you name your characters, and why? in The Exile Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Friday, December 29 2006 07:25 Profile #38 In E1, I just call my characters A, B, C, D, E, and F. Not very imaginative, I know, but I'm not that big on giving out cool names. For E2, E3, and BoE, I just use the default names, even if I change a PC's race, traits, etc. It makes them easier for me to keep track of. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 26 2006 13:25 Profile #9 I'm no newbie, I already know all that (and more). I just find the game's religions a convenient way to get some spells. In other words, I merely exploit them to get some good stuff. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Really Hate those magical barriers? Come here! in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 26 2006 09:31 Profile #7 Here's what I like to do, as far as religion goes in the game (possible spoilers): First, I join the Anama after defeating both the slimes and roaches. Then, once I get as much as I can from them (especailly their spell knowledge), I quit. Then I join the Church of Divine Lucre to get everything they have to offer. Once all this is done, I finish off by buying fake Anama rings and robbing their temple. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Heusstes in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 26 2006 09:21 Profile #14 Someone could always write another GF game, where the Shapers return to Sucia Island to thoroughly explore it for whatever reason (hint, hint).

canisters in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Friday, December 22 2006 13:47 Profile #18 In G1, I'm a major canister junky; for the most part, you have to be in order to survive.

Help in The Avernum Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 19 2006 09:12 Profile #5 I forgot all about the lab, but then again, I probably don't do as much exploring as I should (I know, shame on me). With the major quests, I normally just get in, get on with it, get it over with, and get out. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Creation choice in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 19 2006 09:05 Profile #4 I don't use either creature unless I really, really, really have to. As I've posted on other threads, I prefer to work alone. When I do create a creature, I tend to favor Glaahks and (when I can make--and afford--them) Ur-Glaahks. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Will there ever be another level design contest? in SubTerra
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, December 13 2006 05:14 Profile #27 Sounds good to me if, as you pointed out, Radiant agrees to it. However, I think it would be easier to ask him in the other forum, I seriously doubt that he checks things here anymore. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Shaper uniforms? in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 12 2006 14:49 Profile #4 My guess is that there's only so many graphics that can be put with a game. Either that, or maybe mages and shapers are also part of some sort of religious cult or something. Who knows? -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Sunday, December 10 2006 14:53 Profile #25 I know it should. I've even altered the .ini files to tell the computer where I put everything in the zip file for the game, and still nothing.

where is sixus? in The Exile Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Saturday, December 9 2006 08:34 Profile #1 He's at the north end of one of the swamps on the western shoreline. I can't get more specific than that, because I haven't played E2 in a few years. However, I do remember this much: Try to go in through the back way, or he'll be gone by the time you get to him. And when you finally meet him, tell him that that lady sent you, and when he asks you if you're there to kill him, respond with, "If necessary", otherwise he'll commit suicide. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

in reply to the mystic in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Saturday, December 9 2006 08:15 Profile #3 quote: Originally written by opon mars: Mystic i have long thought about the canister effects. I know that modern statistics have shone that the alteration of genes in a living being destroyed some of the genetic material result in death or crippled the being in 100 °/° of chances but if magic restorded the genes canisters would actually enhance the genetic material therefore destroying some errors and making you able to live a bit more than your being was supposed to. Any way you can post your ideas wright under. I'm assuming you're responding to my statement about not knowing or caring about the length of a Shaper's lifespan; it's true, I don't. It seems to me that you've given this way more thought than I have. I, on the other hand, have long since given up trying to understand the logic of a game, and decided to accept it for what it truly is--a game. Twenty-odd years of PC and console gaming can do that. However, someone mentioned that in one ending for (I think) G2, it says, "you live for a very long time," which to me automatically implies several centuries. I can't confirm that with my copy of the game, since mine's not registered. quote: Originally written by Kelandon: I'm having trouble even finding which topic this is in reply to. Anyone know? My best guess is that it's in reply to this topic. EDIT: Added quote by, and response to, Kelandon.

More shapers? in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, December 6 2006 10:29 Profile #1 As far as I can tell, there are only 2 shapers on Sucia Island: you and Goettsch.

Exile 3 questions in The Exile Trilogy
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Wednesday, December 6 2006 06:10 Profile #5 1. There are a few places where you can augment (I forget at the moment), but it's just too expensive for my taste. If you do decide to augment, make sure the item gains something useful. 3. There's a also random item shop in Lorelei, and I think it's the cheapest. 4. I prefer the Lifesaver Amulet until my Luck skill is high. 5. I really don't use archery in E3, so I can't give you advice here. For me, all missile weapons are junk items, and get sold. 6. I use Nimble Gloves or Micah's Gloves for just about anyone. 7. That's what I do, especially since all my PCs are trained as both priests and mages. Mithral Chain Mail is pretty much my favorite armor. If I wear something encumbering, I lose not just some APs per turn in combat, but also the ability to cast mage spells. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Did you use the Geneforge? (spoilers for GF 1) in Geneforge Series
The Mystic Infiltrator Member # 7488	written Tuesday, December 5 2006 06:28 Profile #9 I rarely, if ever, use the Geneforge these days; I normally can get by just fine without it. Destroying the Geneforge is a given when I play, too. I prefer just to use canisters. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.
