Honestly, I could care less what the title of the people I’m killing are but if it means more players are interested in playing IPY, then I’d like to see the idea florish.

Geez, Bird, this is going to be a real turkey shoot!

Visiting healers for resurrection should give positive spirituality.

Killing priests and healer NPCs should give negative spirituality.

If you have any religion based evil NPCs – templars or zealots or whatever, killing them could affect spirituality (either negative or positively)

Donating to wandering healers, a tithe – positive spirituality

Lockpicking – negative honesty

Buying cheap things from vendors – positive humility

Buying extremely expensive vendor items – negative humility

Slaying a rat – positive humility

Slaying a dragon – negative humility

I’ll see if I can think of a few more. The thing is the more complex we make our suggestions, the more work we make for potential coders and the longer it’ll take to get this system done… so keep em simple

2nd item, magic trap, untrap macro to exploit that mechanic.

certain actions need to be applied to certain specific “tiers” of “virtue reputation” as specified in the other thread.

for example, snooping from someone gives negative honesty from 0 to -1000 honesty. At -1000, snooping can no longer decrease that virtue. from -1000 to -2000 the virtue would be able to be decreased by attempted stealing. The “tiers” in which each ability is placed with have to be determined by the skill required to perform each action in order to scale accordingly.

This is how I picture this system anyway. This would make it so that the virtue would be a reflection of the person’s playstyle, and not the other way around. The idea is to get a system that is adequately tracked by how people already play the game. With that in mind:

Honesty negative:
snooping a blue
stealing from a blue
Trapping a container (with tinkering, not magic trap spell)
popping a container to break magic trap
casting incognito

more coming.

Honesty + Untrapping trapped chests [perventing damage upon someone instade of just not doing anything]

Beta 1 slot to the person who produces the best list.

(I almost said longest, but that may have been a bad idea).

If you want to believe it’ll never happen, that’s okay. If you want to believe it will, that’s okay too.

Silence is annoying, and the blogging amounts to a tease. I realize. Honestly, my blog should be about how I went out to dinner and there was a cockroach under the table, and the only thing you see regarding IPY should be a placeholder webpage if I want to be quiet and stealthy about things. But I did genuinely want to involve those that were most interested.

I also knew that the problem with that was going to be that people got pissed off eventually.

You’re not the first guy to get a bit angry, won’t be the last (REALLY won’t be the last).

But really… I’m very comfortable letting people think what they will at this point.

I think hype and wild promises are lame.
