Title: Check It Out!
Post by Astrona on 04/27/03 at 14:59:13

Ok, I had two ideas, so I thought I'd come on here and post em up.

My First Idea:
I don't know, I tend to notice odd things. But isn't it sort of annoying when a large party comes in and out of your square all the time? I think it tends to make the screen, a bit rather, well messy! It'd be nice if it could say "A group arrives from the North." or "A party arrives from the North." instead. It's not like a major neccesary addition to the game, but I believe it would make things a bit nicer. Let me know what you think!

My Second Idea:
Anyone notice how roses tend to be a popular gift to give to your loved one on the game? I had spoken with JLH before about this idea, and I believe he seemed to like it. But I thought I'd get everyone elses opinion. I thought it would be nice to place a Flower Shop in Nightmist, with flowers picked from the "Grassy Meadow". The prices could depend on the type of flower and detail of the bouquet. I thought it would be a nice addition to the shops in Market Square, and also add on to the small amount of gift items that are affordable on the game. Let me know what you think!

The first idea, i don't like. It would make it more difficult to tell your clan who is there, as you would have to scroll down the list typing the name in individually, rather than just copying and pasting the list of names that comes up on your screen.

The second idea, i like. I think it would make quite a nice little addition to the game.

well the first idea is ok but here's a lil twist that would make it better :D

if a party enters a square make it say who arrived once.
then when it leave again make it say who left.
when the exact same party enters the same square you are on again within like let's say 30 secs. it shows the message
"a party just arrived from the east" or something :D

i like the second idea :D

I don't care for the first one. I'd rather know who exactly was in the party.

I love the second idea though. I want flowers.. but hey what girl doesn't?

I like the second idea, it'd be a nice addition and help with teh weddings, you can then throw the bouqet and get someone else married afterwards lol, forward with the flower shops, I could use a bouqet for someone..

I really don't like the first idea, its quicker just to look at the message 'blah, blah, blah just arrived from the north' than 'a party just arrived from the north' and have to look at the pictures/names.

adding flower shop idea.

Here's an idea for the flower shop. Well, something from what Astrona said anyways. If the flowers are picked from the grassy meadow, you should be able to find them there. So you could go out to the grassy meadow, do /examine on some squares and find some flowers which could then be sold back to the shop. Just another useless addition to the meadow, you know, like rabbit furs.

Good idea newb! There shouldn't be an overabundance of squares that flowers though. It should be scattered. Ya know what I mean? So they're a little bit harder to find. Someone had said something to me about a jewelry shop when he saw my post, but he didn't post it when I asked him to. Also a good idea I believe, but it maybe should be saved for later. Let new things come out gradually. I realize now that my first idea was a bit to buggy I guess. Heh, I was just annoyed at the moment by all the large parties running around and flooding my screen I guess. *shrug* Heh. Thanks for the support guys!
