| diana_coman: | server is back up with a hot-patch applied; sorry for all those crashes | [02:27] |
| diana_coman: | kindly note that a craft/build that is started is better left to finish as it is; messing with it and esp adding other items in the container before it finishes is on player's own risk | [02:37] |
| diana_coman: | moreover, /unstick has been extended to act basically as an interrupt (of crafting/building/exploring/whatever) as well should you really decide you want that | [02:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | a that\'s nice | [03:05] |

| danielpbarron: | heh i looted enough of these things to scoot my way right up to 100 rank | [14:49] |
| danielpbarron: | probably not even a bad move to do that | [14:49] |
| danielpbarron: | oh wait | [14:50] |
| mircea_popescu: | for srs. | [14:50] |
| danielpbarron: | that's books | [14:50] |

| danielpbarron: | #2 this month | [15:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | wd! | [15:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | ima look in a sec see what wine's like. | [15:10] |
| danielpbarron: | this next one's bundle is worth 936594 so prolly gonna be at least a 1mn pop | [15:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | my position is being assaultsieged! | [15:15] |
| Birdman: | wanna buy some beans mr. p? | [15:16] |
| Birdman: | danielpbarron you in town to get thise tokens? | [15:20] |
| danielpbarron: | ya | [15:21] |
| danielpbarron: | actually no | [15:21] |
| danielpbarron: | maybe trading while it's crafting is what's been crashing the server | [15:21] |
| danielpbarron: | better just wait | [15:21] |
| danielpbarron: | prolly another hour or two | [15:21] |
| Birdman: | kk | [15:21] |
| danielpbarron: | you gonna bid on this skill item?? you can't all have that skill already | [15:22] |
| Birdman: | lol | [15:22] |
| Birdman: | 350k on the lj item | [15:22] |
| danielpbarron: | AUCTION 1 ABMBS, q 133. 350k heard Birdman . ETA tomorrow 14:00 EDT | [15:23] |
| danielpbarron: | for any noobs watching, this skill makes it so the "lumber" that you harvest while gathering/building comes out a higher quality. it's like a modifier on the building skill although it's listed under gathering | [15:25] |
| danielpbarron: | 250k was the base value adjusted for quality, believe it or not! | [15:30] |
| Birdman: | LOL got one full level of farming from that remark | [15:40] |
| danielpbarron: | that's it?? | [15:40] |
| Birdman: | mmmmmhm | [15:40] |
| danielpbarron: | i got 2 building and 2 sortage from my remark flotsam | [15:40] |
| Birdman: | and one building level.. | [15:40] |
| danielpbarron: | made sure both were at lowest before i started | [15:41] |
| Birdman: | theres definitely some sort of threshold for starting to gain exp past one level | [15:41] |
| danielpbarron: | i always only get 1 rank up in sacrifice | [15:41] |
| Birdman: | no way the exp from that somehow managed to give me 1/2 a building level and one full farming | [15:41] |
| danielpbarron: | it's based on output not input, there's that | [15:42] |
| Birdman: | either its enough to give you two from that single craft, or it halts at one maybe | [15:42] |
| Birdman: | i've noticed the same thing with ords, too | [15:42] |
| Birdman: | then again this was a worse than normal remark i think | [15:43] |
| diana_coman: | danielpbarron> it's based on output not input, there's that <- how can you tell? | [15:43] |
| danielpbarron: | more stuff comes out, more exp gained | [15:43] |
| diana_coman: | I thought more stuff in -> more stuff out, too | [15:43] |
| danielpbarron: | and it comes in all jerky, like it's getting each boost from each different pile of loot that appears in container | [15:43] |
| Birdman: | you would think lol but thats not a guarantee | [15:44] |
| diana_coman: | not a guarantee, no; just related | [15:44] |
| Birdman: | yeah i've seen that, bar jerks forwards a few times while you are getting loots | [15:44] |
| danielpbarron: | probably had something to do with the multiple message issue that was recently fixed | [15:44] |
| diana_coman: | stares at the bar | [15:44] |
| danielpbarron: | maybe the jerkyness went away with that fix. i haven't watched it recently | [15:45] |
| Birdman: | no, its still there | [15:46] |
| Birdman: | least i thought i saw it yesterday | [15:46] |
| danielpbarron: | anyway, maybe that's why i got 2 ranks and you got 1. maybe my flotsam remark was a bigger pop | [15:46] |
| Birdman: | yeah and mine didnt pass whatever necessary threshold to start giving two levels of expo | [15:46] |
| Birdman: | say you are a sliver away from ranking up building and you build not a small but an ord, i think if you go to town and train you will noticed theres no exp towards your next rank | [15:47] |
| Birdman: | idk where that exp might go, maybe output value in loot or something | [15:47] |
| danielpbarron: | exp has no value | [15:47] |
| Birdman: | yeah so its just lost | [15:48] |
| danielpbarron: | the thing with no value is lost | [15:48] |
| Birdman: | value is subjective and im not the game | [15:48] |
| Birdman: | obviously i would rather level 1000 building than level 1 | [15:48] |
| danielpbarron: | i guess whatever exp is valued at relates to what \% markup actual things go for | [15:49] |
| Birdman: | not to mention skill items have value to the game | [15:49] |
| danielpbarron: | the item itself has value besides that one use | [15:49] |
| Birdman: | are all skill items ingredients ? | [15:49] |
| danielpbarron: | most are so far, so i think it's safe to assume yes probably | [15:50] |
| Birdman: | huh, maybe everything we know of so far is an ingredient to something | [15:50] |
| danielpbarron: | something tells me the train-at-npc thing goes away, and instead you have to read a book to activate getting points to the next rank | [15:51] |
| Birdman: | the bar seems smooth now, probably was the messages | [15:51] |
| Birdman: | AUCTION: 14955 bb q153 STARTING BID 9mn ETA 24 hours | [16:04] |
| Birdman: | thinking my policy is gonna be something like no rares under 200\% | [16:19] |
