IIRC, LIVAN has a few levels in the GC which are safe havens, such as the dwarf city.
I usually play 0.50 but it's fun to try out the variants every once in a while. LIVAN and IVANT are both enjoyable and not too unbalanced although all the extra levels makes it a lot easier to get perfect equipment.
right.. I've been gone a while, sorry. Yes I'm in the states, Indiana to be exact. The domain expires exactly a month from today (Nov 27th). It is $21.76 to renew the domain for 2 years. I'm not sure what's the best way to do this. Short of giving you my goddady account and password, I don't think it's possible to transfer the domain to somebody else. It might just be easiest if you paypaled me the amount and then I processed it.
As for the actual running of the website, you should have administrator status now. Check to make sure you can login to the admin panel (link will appear at the bottom of every page), and just try things out. Let me know to make sure it works.
And last but not least for editing and uploading files, adding mods, etc. I should be able to give you a password that will allow you to log in through ftp, I'll let you know when I get that set up, hopefully by this weekend. (I am really busy so sorry if I get held up).
You can always email me at webbypssht at gmail dot com. If I disappear like this again or just forget to change something. That's also my paypal email if you decide to do that.
Yep, pretty dumb that shopkeepers can't see you when invisible - and yet when they're mad at you they still know where you are? I'm pretty sure that's true.
I am pretty sure a mine has spawned inside the gc shop for me as well, without there being an eddy. There have almost definitely been bear traps, would mines be any different?
Welcome Paul. I like the idea of advancing through the alphabet. I usually go with names of friends (Casella, Genovesi, etc), pets (Parangi, Herman), characters (Gandalf, Frodo, etc), or famous people (Gershwin, Ettore (Bugatti)).
We'd have to figure out how exactly to transfer everything. My actual hosting doesn't expire until march, just the domain expires in November. Domain itself is only about $8, hosting is about $100 per year. But since I'm going to keep my host for my other websites, I'll be paying for that anyway so I could still host it, somebody else would just have to manage the files and admin the forum.
