View Full Version : Slow down in the Foothills...?

Anyone know the reasoning behind this?

The air begins to thicken around you as you move, slowing your progress while the sensation of a hundred tiny bristles harmlessly brush across your body and motes of pale silver light briefly circle about you before fading.
Roundtime changed to 1 second.
Roundtime: 3 sec.

Running between Solhaven and Landing using my ever so trusty SF script and as I sat there watching I noticed two spots that did this, gave out this messaging. Is there some kind of storyline going on that's causing this?

I don't remember seeing it yesterday, but then again I may not have made the trip between towns yesterday. Just a couple of hops between Solhaven and FWI that I can recall.

Looks like it has something to do with the Witchful Thinking Storyline. Leafiara mentions the foothills in her summary from last night -

Thanks. I haven't really followed much of any story lines in the past year.

I hope I'm not infected. Apparently I am "The tainted one" but maybe its something different.

I think it's kinda hilarious that you're 'complaining' about what amounts to a four-second slowdown...

I mean honestly, at that timestamp and year there is an EXCELLENT chance I was online, and thus almost certainly complaining.

It's possible you were afk absorbing exp while taking a dump.

It's also possible you absorbing exp while taking a dump, but not afk, and there was no wifi yet.

I had a 56k modem is 1998. It was new. I made the jump from a 144. Blazing fast speeds.

You didn't run a Cat5 to your bathroom so you could pwn trolls while you droped a deuce?

Slacker.

I'd just take dumps at my desk like a real man.

Without a poop sock even.

It was really more like a TEN second slowdown -- two rooms with 3 sec RT plus a few seconds for go2 to restart. Time is money!
