Boulder Appreciation Topic

The "Who do you miss?" thread this brought it on. All you former boulderites post up your best, fondest, weirdest, whatever memories on the boulder. Feel free to include logs too.

I'll start out when I rerolled Arkons into Arkans and I was a level 3 sorcerer. Everyone beat up on me Hehe.

I remember that guy. He'd try to boil me, run, and when I killed him he'd try to report me.

I still say the AI war was the best ever.

Nothing will beat the AI War. Three hours of completely pwnage. Who else remembers.

- Arkans

[Axhinde]

A log would be most appreciated.

[Hulkein]

Hah, I remember that cul de sac v. Boulder fight. I wasn't even with the Cul De Sac crew, I just joined in for the fun and got spiked by Stunseed, lol.

I have some good logs on my old computer at home, none right now though, unfortunately.

[GSTamral]

eh. First it was the HS steps, then it was the dinghy. Then the merchant road. Then the hollowed tree. Then the Boulder. Now, its nowhere.

[Tsa`ah]

Sorry Wez ... had to comment.

I remember we had a fun night on the Boulder, I had just started playing after taking two years off, so my ranger, Rhayz was only like 12 or 14 at the time, but it was me, Harloch, Recoil, Emislity and I wanna say someone else all up against Geosain, Fralcon, Solkern and a couple others... I couldn't really do anything but it was a hell of a lot of fun.

The really sad part is I cut some of his casts out of the log I posted - because I thought 4 was enough to get the point through.

[Meth]

i always enjoyed acting like dumbasses in the shanty years ago, i dont think 2 minutes ever passed without someone dying there, until they made so ya cant hide, people stopped going then

[Parkbandit]

Originally posted by Meth

I'm sure most will agree with you.

Here, let me be the first one to introduce you to this:

[imported_Kranar]

The AI war was one of the funnest moments I've ever had in Gemstone!

As for the boulder, my only fun memories there were when it was first used as the dueling area after the dinghy became part of Landing jurisdiction. Zodier, Zanagan, myself, Ohr, and some other folks would do team duels; those were incredibly fun. We were allowed to move about, so the duel wasn't just confined to a single room and that made the duels far more strategic and lengthy.

The best thing about the AI War was that the leadership of both sides (myself and a few others on my side and Izalude, Ariond and the rest of his crew on the other side) actually had to talk to the GMs and Andraste sanctioned the whole entire thing. It was all cool by her. What made it even more interesting was when random people started showing up and you didn't know who was gonna get you and who wasn't. Pulse pounding moment indeed.

- Arkans

[imported_Kranar]

Hah, exactly. I remember it first being like the Black Fist vs. some other clan, and then once word got out, people came in from all over just killing whoever.

Yep, I lead the Black Fist. The other group was the Temple Knights and Knights of Luna or something (I had a fucking Alliance against me!!). It started out great. The group I lead split into three different groups and the PWNing started. After about 20 min of this other people started showing up and it became mass chaos. A few of the Empaths and Clerics that fogged right in got killed, but they soon set up a triage in the AI where people got raised, healed, and went out to fight some more. A whole three hours! That is until the other side surrendered to the Black Fist!! Man, I'd kill to do something like this again.

- Arkans

[Carl Spackler]

lets do it.

[Stunseed]

< I just joined in for the fun and got spiked by Stunseed, lol. >

One of the best spikes he's cast, too. :yes:

BTW, if I never did, sorry for blasting you there, I thought you had Nightvision try to fuck me up on purpose because you couldn't.

[Axhinde]

I'm game.

[Parkbandit]

I'd do it.

[AnticorRifling]

I'm in.

Well, we've got interest going. Okay, guys, this is what I propose. If you're seriously interested about anothr AI War U2U me your character's names.

Also, not everyone reads the boards, so if you have friends, ask them, and if they're down U2U me those names too. I'd say it would be a go if we could at least get 10-15 people on each side.

Also, if you want to help me orginize it, U2U me that as well.

I'd say the rules should be like the last AI War. Anything goes, just no killing the Empaths/Clerics that fog into the area on purpose, due to consent reasons. Let's get this started!!

- Arkans

[Sean]

Sounds like fun .. although deathsting would definitly slow things down.

It would, which is in a way a good thing. It will promote both sides to use some tactics instead of just running around killing each other.

- Arkans

So far, officially, we got Nazradin and myself. Please send U2U's to make it official. Makes orginizing it 300x easier.

- Arkans

[AnticorRifling]

If you just have a wizard that is willing he can set a pet to in town and gate folks to the NPC cleric, raise that way and no death's sting. Damn do I have to think of everything?

Arkans
Nazradin
Voldermort
Anticor
Gherlan/Rhayz

All those at U2U'd me so far. Not bad for the first hour of advertisement.

- Arkans

Just a quick bump before I go to bed. We still need a bit more people, so try asking around if you could!

- Arkans

[Sean]

I'd need a better indication of the time/scheduling for it. The next couple of weeks I'm pretty busy.

[Snapp]

Just read this thread and I'm still pissed about this:

Bhambi swings a diamond-edged black vultite falchion at Gerbill!
AS: +483 vs DS: +242 with AvD: +34 + d100 roll: +34 = +309
... and hits for 138 points of damage!
Massive blow smashes through ribs and drives Gerbill's heart out the back.

* Gerbill drops dead at your feet!

:( There's another good one where I remember having fun on here somewhere. I'll see if I can find it.

[Snapp]

Ah, here it is:
http://www.forum.gsplayers.com/viewthread.php?tid=4647
Good times.

I'm thinking of something around next weekend or a weekend after that. If there are other times people think are better, let me know as well. Here is an updated list:

Arkans
Nazradin
Voldermort
Anticor
Gherlan/Rhayz
Nalina
Syberus

If you have any questions concerns, just drop me a U2U or post it up here. Remember to ask some friends too, if you can. The more people involved the better it is.

- Arkans

Oh, before I forget. The time I was thinking would be in the evening EST. This will give people from the west coast a chance to join in. Once again, if you have any suggestions please post them or U2U me.

- Arkans

I remember years ago participating in something like this. We all met in I believe it was the ghost wolf area. Complete free for all killing, winner to recieve so much money. GM's stepped in and made us stop! They must have been having a slow day and needed something to do damn them.

[Caiylania]

I would, but at 32 I'd get slaughtered. ::shiver::

Just stand behind one of the big guys, when they get hit run like hell!

[Artha]

I'm going to make someone over 50 my bitch.

About characters that are lower level and have concerns. When I get enough members I am going to go and get everyone's level and create the teams based on that. Everyone will have someone to kill.

Also, the idea of a reward is not bad at all. I'd definatly like something like that involved for the winners. So remember, if you're a lower level don't be afraid to participate, there will always be someone for you to kill.

Plus, I bet us higher level guys will be too concerned with watching our own asses!

Maybe we can donate something? In my lockers are tons of weapons which I have no clue about. I would be willing to donate something, with some help from you weapon appraisers. Or hell I have a set of leathers I am enchanting right now that will be 6X. Doing them just because I had them laying around.

Donations would be an excellent idea. If you have anything you'd like to donate (weapons, gems, items, fluff, ANYTHING!) give me a U2U. I'll most likely be donating a nice piece of armor myself if there is enough interest in that as well.

This would mean that we would need to somehow determine a winner or something. All I know is I would like to keep the rules as they were back in the original AI War. Sort of an "Anything goes" type atmosphere. Here is an updated list, by the way. Keep the names coming!

Arkans

I know Psinet was down, and I haven't logged in to check if it is back up. That would be a good place to advertise as well, if someone has not already done so. If one of you knowledgeable weapon people can tell me what the hell some of these weapons are, then we can see if they will be good enough for a prize.

I think a duel till the last one standing would be pretty cool as well. We could do it in an age vs like age thing.

Bumping this once more before I go to bed with an updated list. I'll be making announcements on Psinet as well. Keep spreading the word! This even will be a "definate go" when we get 20 interested people. I think 10 v 10 is needed to be true to the actual AI War.

Oh yeah, I'm also looking for another Team Captain. Drop me a line in U2U, Psinet Mail, or post it here if you are interested in leading the second group.

- Arkans

[Axhinde]

I'll be in Dallas from Thursday through Monday for turkey day. If this does happen to go down this weekend, Nazradin won't be able to make it.:(

Thanks for the heads up. Are there any other major conflicts? This could easily be reschedualed until after the Holidays.

- Arkans

[Carl Spackler]

Yeah, this weekend is bad, well for me thursday through saturday nights are bad, as i don't play on the weekends much. But obviously an event can't be scheduled around a single person.

[Parkbandit]

Well shit. I'm hunting Friday/Saturday.. but will be back by Saturday night to enjoy the carnage.

Count me in if it's Sat or Sun night. I'll U2U my character's name Arkans.. because I don't like people knowing I play Falgrin.

:D

lol

Okay, seems like a few people arn't keen on it being on the Turkey Day holiday. Fine by me. If I get a few more requests to move it up a week I'll do it. Here's the updated list.

Arkans
Nazradin
Voldermort
Anticor
Gherlan/Rhayz
Nalina
Syberus
Aone
Katya
Plo
Tijay
Caiylania
Augie
Tayre
Stunseed
Chica
Raulda
Drinin
Falgrin
Chivilrous (sp???)


BTW: I have one volunteer for a team captain. if anyone else is interested, drop me a line.

- Arkans

[Drew]

It's Chivalrous, like the word.

Awesome. We have the minimum number of willing participants. So, I'll be taking suggestions for a time for the next few days. More people are always welcome.

- Arkans

[Darnell]

I want in! roflmao....Seriously though, No matter how you pull this off...nothing will be as good as the original

D

You know it, Darnell. I wish I was there to see the look on everyone's face when you went and PWNED the ATK command.

- Arkans

[Darnell]

The look really wasn't anything special. You how in movies when someone gets beheaded, the last expression on their face freezes there? That's pretty much what it looked like, except the gestures I was making towards Izalude, those were interesting. Still can't believe he trusted me enough to let me in as a member of their little group. You still owe me to this day for acting like a fairy around them. I thought I was going to need to be committed during all that.

D

ROFL, the logs were priceless. I still can't believe he trust you, Padun, and Mackros. What a crew to trust, rofl.

- Arkans

Updated list. Please keep giving suggestions about good times/dates.

- Arkans


Arkans
Nazradin

[Darnell]

I'm still not on the list....wtf?

D

[Drew]

Add Kontii and Myiera to the list, a couple others are interested but want a date.

Just letting you guys know I havn't forgotten. Expect a comprehensive update sometime tomorrow as well with a semi-permanent time. After the update I will start to form teams!

- Arkans

Okay! This looks like this is the final list.

NOTE: I still AM accepting names!
NOTE 2: People can join in the fun at random! Keep it in the spirit of the original. It looks like Chivalrous will be the Team Captain for the other side as he was the only volunteer.

Now, I want to set the date for Saturday 10 PM EST. I'm now asking for everyone that CAN MAKE IT. To get me their levels ASAP so I can form teams and get this started! Sooner I get the levels to make up balanced teams the sooner we can get this show on the road!!!!

[IntegraC]

Any update on teams, etc. It's 2 days away, unless that changed.

I'm still waiting for people to submit levels. Unfortunately, I think I got about 5. Not nearly enough to make any sort of teams or continue with the event. It's up to everyone else now before I can continue.

- Arkans

[Carl Spackler]

Looks like this isn't occuring tonighit

[Miss X]

Aww, well I gave him my level! Was looking forward to killing everyone! ;)

[Drew]

Maybe some other time then.

Unfortunately not, I got a total of like 6 or 7 levels. Far shy of the 20 minimum I needed. Sorry guys :(

- Arkans

[Sean]

Alot of the level basing is pretty easy if you look at the people joined.




Arkans - I think you know this one
Nazradin - One of the older chars talks about OTF
Voldermort -
Anticor - 60ish Wizard
Gherlan/Rhayz -
Nalina - I think she posted earlier that she quit gs
Syberus - late 90s sorc
Aone -
Katya -
Plo - 60s wizard
Tijay - late 60 cleric
Caiylania - 30ish warrior
Augie -
Tayre - 60s empath, but again i think he said he quit
Stunseed - 50s ranger
Chica - 80s empath
Raulda - I'm pretty sure you know this one
Drinin - 70ish bard
Falgrin - 60s rogue i believe
Chivalrous
Meges
Marluxian

It's not exact or anything and you might have the levels or approx of some people I'm missing but it should atleast give you a start on splitting up teams. I think tonight would be a bust just because there doesn't seem to be too many active people about.

Generally guessing the levels isn't a problem. I also needed people to state their levels as sort of a confirmation whether through AIM, U2U, or on here.

- Arkans

[IntegraC]

Could also make it more fun based, by having the 2 team captains pick their own teams. Just an altertanive, since beyond the few people's levels you got, you won't get everyone's.

I mean it isn't really about who wins, it's about having some fun, and with the FoF thing, it's not like you can't have a big part of a team concentrate on one main problem on the other team.

[Nakiro]

I'm in!

lvl 100 empath

Tell you what, first person to get a team together and tell me about said team is it and we can go to fists.

- Arkans

[Brattt8525]

Arkans - I think you know this one team 2
Nazradin - One of the older chars talks about OTF team 1
Voldermort - team 2
Anticor - 60ish Wizard team 2
Gherlan/Rhayz -
Nalina - I think she posted earlier that she quit gs
Syberus - late 90s sorc team 1

Falgrin - 60s rogue i believe team 1
Chivalrous
Meges
Marluxian

[Brattt8525]

I know its rather skewed but at least I tried to divide ages up accordingly, we just need the ages of the last few and we are good to go?

[IntegraC]

How's this for teams? (Took out Tayre, Meges and Nalina based on statements that they didn't want to do the event/quit/put GS on hold)

Arkans – Team 1 Leader
Nakiro
Jullius
Arkans
Raulda
Drinin
Anticor
Doppelganger
Stunseed
Caiylania
Marluxian
Aone


Chivalrous – Team 2 Leader
Nazradin
Voldermort
Gherlan/Rhayz
Syberus
Katya
Plo
Tijay
Augie
Chica
Falgrin

[Caiylania]

I just get bounced around between teams. Le sigh.

[IntegraC]

Just noticed I added an extra member to Team 1..so feel free to move people around. Figured that's a rough draft you (Arkans) can go by.

[Drew]

We probably should split up Desorceri and Kylinarr and I told Desorceri he was on my team so put Kylinarr on team 1.

[AnticorRifling]

Any team that has Anticor on the roster has a kind of unfair advantage. :cool:

And as of about an hour ago I'm now lvl 57.

[Carl Spackler]

Yeah Gherlan is 50, I'll be playing him instead of Rhayz

The teams look good, just as long as everyone has at least an empath and cleric. How's this weekend for people?

- Arkans

[Drew]

Not 10PM again! Sometime earlier, there is plenty of stuff to do late at night and I don't want to stay home.

[Sean]

This weekend is good for me. Infact its better than last weekend.

[Drektor]

Is it too late to be on a team?

[Sean]

Yes, but mainly because you suck.:whistle:

[Myiera]

Ok i was trying to avoid posting but it looks like that isnt gonna happen. I am in if I can be. Level 51 possibly 52 by the time this happens.

[Myiera]

Oh yeah and I am an empath for anybody that dosent already know or dispise me. :: cackles madly ::

Friday or Sat?

- Arkans

[AnticorRifling]

Christmas play this weekend so I'm booked Fri, Sat, and Sun.

[Brattt8525]

Friday or saturday evening is good for me. I am still trying to recover from not being on Arkans team though, I cried myself to sleep last night!

I know, I know, there will be many of broken hearted girls and many of sad guys too! Though, I must admit, I didn't make the teams!!!11111

Anyone can join whenever they want, if in doubt, just show up. I think we should meet up first upstairs in the Wayside Inn or at a table of some sort.

- Arkans

PS: FUK UR XM4Z PL43 KilLL D3LVS IN GS4

[IntegraC]

Can’t do Friday myself, but if that’s an issue with only me, no biggie. Unless it’s like after 10:30PM Friday, then I’d be good. Otherwise I’m good for Saturday night.

Arkans, as for the teams. If you wanna switch em up, go ahead. It was just a rough draft based on rough levels I had in mind for most of the people. I’m pretty sure we’ll have to re-team when most of the people meet up due to not all being able to make it.

True, true. Just throw out dates guys, when it comes to tomorrow, I think something more permanent will go into place. Remember that you can join mid fight too.

- Arkans

[DeV]

Saturday is perfect for me but if I'm in the minority on that, carry on without me!

[Carl Spackler]

Weekend nights are just really shitty for me.

[Methais]

AI war was awesome. I'd even log into GS for another.

A third party ambush of all of ya, that open as well?

:scared2:

[IntegraC]

So are we on for Saturday, or what's the plan, Arkans.

We can always do it on a weekday since most people who are on the list are on the weekdays anyway, whereas the weekends can be troublesome for others.

Let's meet up sometime Saturday. What time is good for you guys?

- Arkans

[IntegraC]

Evening works for me I think.

[Drew]

Saturday afternoon/early evening

[DeV]

Afternoon or evening

How's 9 PM?

- Arkans

[IntegraC]

Works for me.

Edit: I take it this is EST?

[Edited on 12-10-2004 by IntegraC]

Yup, EST.

- Arkans

[Sean]

saturday at 9 works for me

[DeV]

Good for me also.

[Carl Spackler]

You can take Gherlan off, won't be there tomorrow.

Okay, meeting place will be the upstairs area in Wayside. I'll announce it over OOC and all that before hand.

- Arkans

[Brattt8525]

Works for me as well.

[Drinin]

Saturday evening should be fine.

[C7L34N]

So, I guess no Third Party ambushes, eh? Tho I guess, as ya said, if one were to walk in and see the all the ruckus they could join.

A third side could make it quite interesting, no?

Must have missed my post.. Anyone third party can join in the fun. I want to keep this as close to the original as possible.

- Arkans

[C7L34N]

I did miss it, my bad. Understood as well.

9 PM EST tonight on the top floor of Wayside, please do not forget.

- Arkans

At Wayside, upstairs.. Right now. Hurry up.

- Arkans

[Artha]

T MINUS 15 MINUTES

HURRIEZ UPZ

- Arkans

[Artha]

YOU HAVE 3 MINUTES NOW

[Brattt8525]

Those who couldn't make it tonight missed out. We had alot of fun, and I now have a new respect for getting my ass handed to me by an empath! Thanks for the fun Nakiro, and Murp your a lazy moss hugging giant!

Thanks everyone, lets do this again soon.

[Syberus]

I'm not saying it wasn't fun.. but I don't think I'll ever get back the feeling that I used to have.

Few words...

It was fun. I had a blast and would do it again, but Syberus does have a point. It did not capture the atomsphere of the First AI War. Couple of reasons for this:

1. First AI War was about 5 times as big
2. The last one was one giant long round for 3 hours.
3. The first one really was a battle in a huge clan war
4. There were too many people with 50+ levels. The first AI War, people, at the highest, were 90 (GS III) terms.
5. The rounds went by WAY too fast. A single round would last about 30 seconds and then everyone had to recover.


That being said, by no means was it bad. There was some excitment running through the tunnels and looking for other characters, but the high level mechanics of Gemstone just don't always jive with the goal of something. One shot one kill with so few people just doesn't always work.

Was it fun? Fuck yeah! Was it the same as the first AI War? Nope, and I doubt it ever will be. It's almost as comparing it to apples and oranges. Two very different animals.

Maybe the next time we could do like a quest. It was mentioned a kidnapping, clues to find them etc.

[Caiylania]

I'm sorry I missed it. Couldn't seem to hang in there, I was so friggen tired by then. Glad you all had fun!

We can do a quest of sorts, but let's face it. Gemstone mechanics are really not supporting this type of action.

Tell, (Arkans would be the bad guy, most likely), if Arkans had to kipnapp somebody why wouldn't he just throw out mindjolts, grab them and fog away?

If Katya was trying to save the person, why wouldn't she just blast Arkans out of his boots without thinking twice? In a situation like this it become really "What side has the most levels." Completely relying on the ACT command seems a little weird and unrealistic (even though it is fair for all people). "OH SHIT I GOT MAD SKILLZ BUT KANT BUT WONT UZ THEM 4 SUM REEZON".

- Arkans

[Brattt8525]

Ok you have a point, I ended up feeling bad about blasting people last night. The idea of getting together is cool though, breaks up things and its nice doing group things. Maybe a thought would be a weekly hunt for the PC'ers. I am up for leading a group to wherever fits the group age wise. Hunting parties are fun and a great way to make friends. I still would love to brainstorm some kind of quest.

No reason to feel bad for blasting people, that was the name of the game.

The group hunt I'd have to stay out of, nothing interests me less than hunting monsters that I can't learn from.

Perhaps, people were right. The higher level you get the more uneventful shit is in GS.

- Arkans

[DeV]

Maybe we can do like-level duels of some sort. Teams could be picked as evenly as possible based on levels and then you have to duel against the player closest in level to you on the opposite team.
Something to think about.

That would definatly work. That sounds something similiar to "Let's revive the boulder", damn that would rock!

I would like to get my rogue up for some duels. How about tonight, anyone game to start the boulder up with some duels?

I'm always in the Landing, so I'll partake, observe duels.

I've never dueled at the boulder but wouldn't mind doing it.

Bratt, your Rogue would fucking pwninate me, go pick on someone your own size. :P

Personally I have characters that are 7, 13, 26, 27, 49, 53, and 100. So I am game to drag any of them out depending on who wants to duel. Duelling is new to me, I need pointers on how to cheat in the best possible ways!

Reviving the boulder would be such a sweet idea. It would be at least some entertainment around the Landing and a break from hunt/rest.

I'm in for some dueling, my currently active characters are 37, 27 and 20. Let me know when it's going down. I'll probably bring the 27 wizard.

[Syberus]

I'd definetly come and observe and whatnot, but even dueling past 50 is kind of... who gets off the first cast.

[YancyDC]

I've never, in all my years of GS, dueled, so I'd like to try. I have a 16 and a 21 rogue. Should I just show up? Judging from all the PvP I read about when lurking these boards, I also seem to have missed out by only getting killed once, and that was by accident.

Both characters are in Mule, but I'll bring em down. They also both suck. :(

Axhinde and Stunseed had a great duel not too long ago. Ax was 52 and Stun was 48, I think.

What characters?

[Sean]

your guys duel lasted so long because you both tanked and limited your attack methods IE: no spike no voln fu.

[Solkern]

Arkans remember the All out rumble we had on the Boulder long ass time ago, I've got some many damn memories of that place it hurts my head

[Solkern]

I could break out a list of fucking boulder killing sprees we've all had I got a file like 2 mb big hahahahaha

[allen]

:socool: Now instead of bumping a 4 months old thread with a statement, show us some damn bloodshed.

[Solkern]

in case you haven't noticed i haven't posted in like 2 years

[allen]

I didn't, but what's that got to do with you re-opening an old thread, no disrespect, just wanted to see some blood! I'm gonna make a new thread anyway, don't think it's convenient to have to go to the 7th page on this one..
