Maybe someone can help clarify this...

Quote
Using alts (that means dual log - playing with more than one character at time, even with two computers).

I already made the newbie mistake of playing two characters at once.  I recognize that it was a dumb move and should have checked the forums for rules to such an effect.  Izual was very polite in explaining the issue, so all was resolved without a real issue.

However, upon examining the rule a few times, I'm still scratching my chin.  I'm new to this game; brand new.  On one or two of my experiments, I've found some items out of pure luck, and acquired a fair amount of resources.  Would it be considered a violation of this rule to hand this stuff off to a friend PC and then have it handed back to a newly generated character?

The act would be, in short, "muling", which is fine in some games and bad in others.  It isn't mentioned verbatim in the rules, but as nice as Izual was, I'd prefer not to be teleported to the Chapel of Doom again; it was quite embarrassing!

Anyone able to clarify?

It is ok to have a friend hold your stuff for your other stuff to transfer it.

Another way is to stash your stuff in a well-hidden location and come back for it on the other char.

So alternate characters are allowed, and may have items exchanged between them if you can finagle it, you just can't log on with two of them simultaneously?  Is that correct?

I'm sure if you just politely break the rules one of the friendly admins will show you the place.

If I ever break the rules again I promise to take screenshots.  :P

Rule is : One character per player at a time, and waiting 10 minutes between each character connection. If you don't wait, we'll see it, and if you log several characters at once, we'll see it too ;p That's why having two computers doesn't bring any advantage (and it's fair).

Throwing formula is the same as basic ToHit formula.

I haven't done the calcul but I think you need more with 1PE (and even with 6).

Well with throwing max range is 15, so I guess he don't ask for one hex range.

Stupid question:
What will happen if I use a dynamite by setting timer on 1 sec on world map if I'm a member of party of 10 people? I'll die? We all will die?


Only you die, I guess.
Argh, my evil plan just failed.
