I would like to thank both Zephie and Stotic for the effort they put in the quest "War between Harabec and Arilin". Although it was a bit chaotic due to it being the first quest as such, it was definately entertaining and much appreciated.

In my own opinion.. a few hints for those that did not enjoy it:

1. Those who are going to gripe about the actions during a quest, stay away and don't ruin it for the rest of us.

2. If you don't like how staff runs an event, you can always hit "quit".

3. Cooperation and willingness to try new things is sometimes not a bad thing! lol.

Anyway, You both deserve a round of applause for this venture.. good job and thanks again.

Sincerely,
Amy of Draco

So, for the people who missed it, would somebody be so kind as to post a little summary of the event?

I'm not really one to complain bout some stuff, but I didn't even know it was close to starting when I logged on. I yelled asking if we could still enter, and got no responce. simple yes/no would have been nice at least, or maybe if it was listed in the /system log. (I got d/c'd 3 times so entering would have been pointless for me anyway :) )

Otherwise, nice to see everyone having fun outside of thier own clan rivalies. Big up's for the effort.

An emotion filled ride.

A whole range of emotions were felt this time around.

I was a little impatient as always. I am like the 5 year old waiting in the long line at the zoo.

Got a little angry about the lag and having to log back on 3 times.

Frustrated at party members from time to time for yacking while my 5K buffer cleared my screen over and over when I was trying to find targets.

After Natura, Harabec and the dungeons I have come to exspect alot from Mike and Jen. Thier imaginations seem endless. I don`t think either realize just how talented they really are.

And once again they have lived up to thier names of area devolopers. I would vote to get thier titles changed to Master Game Developers.

/me tips his hat.

Nice job.

and, yeah it's kinda hard to simply answer yes or no when we're teleporting 50 something people around and trying to make everyone else happy.

This was great. Even though I couldn't participate, I'm sure it was great. If this is any hint at things to come, I look forward to the future. ^__^

All I have to say is this.

Looking at my clock it is currently 3:52 pm GMT, it is the 24th. And the battle that was scheduled for 7:00 pm GMT is already done...

Dissappointing.

I must say this was a very enjoable quest even though i got killed. Zephie was a great General i guess the others were just better *shrug* thanks very much both of you.

Well, the survivors got a Medal of Triumph (though i was not among them)

The guy who ACTUALLY KILLED the Baroness got nothing extra, instead it was someone who pressed pickup macro the quickest...

Edit: Was good fun, despite lag and me dying to some archer dude :)

Thanks Stotic and Zephie!

Thanks Stotic and Zephie!

It was great to pull on Harabec colours, despite the fact that in a fit of lag madness i stumbled north alone into some not too friendly monsters who had free shots while my screen froze....

Excelent work to Zephie and Stotic, and specially Mike(Aeon) who got the kill but rudely had the item snatched from his grasps.

w00t Harabec guards in Arlin, very nice touch also!

Yes three cheers for Stotic and Zephie!!!!! It was a great war questy.

Oh and the dude who killed the Baroness gets to say that he killed her at least! Lot's of people put people they have killed in their profiles' but only he will have that one.

Dude, staf can't do anything about the lag, it's just how it is. I go on with a T1 connection at skool, and i still get lag sometimes. It's just how it is.

I must admit that quest was by far one of the most fun things I've ever done on Nightmist, appart from a few lag issues which couldn't be avoided it went very nicely. The idea was great it was obviously very well thought out and the staff who ran it deserve a really big thankyou for all their efforts.

So thankyou Zephie and Stotic for giving us this awesome quest :)

Thanks guys...kinda sucks that i dont get the special item for killing, but its true, i will have the recognition for actually getting the kill...

You killed Baroness_Cyssia.

I must say despite the lag (expected) this event was very fun indeed, and i hope to see more quests like this in the future. Perhaps the next 1 should have an alt limit though as suggested earlier since any lower lvl players who didnt know the way to harabec just joined up with arilin lol


But anyway TY Mike and Jen :)
