Verlyrus:

Welcome, Guest, to Archive E-189-L

Hey there, heroes!

This week in DragonFable, it's time for... a maze? Last week, the now homeless Zorbak sent you on a quest into the depths of Braughlmurk in search of some special dragon bones. You eventually found them- but also a mysterious pair known as Lock and Key!

After Key ran into some technical difficulties, you rose to your heroic station and volunteered to help- and immediately got sucked into Key's... head?

This week, you find yourself somewhere quite different.

[img]https://cms.dragonfable.com/df/images/ARCHIVEdn.png[/img]

Saving Key will require teamwork and communication. Will you be able to find your way to the cause of the instability before it's too late?

Find out in this week's special war event!

On Official War Threads:

War threads are not to debate what is strong or weak, good or evil. They are for people to discuss the war, rally together and encourage each other while battling war waves. That is the ONLY thing they are for. You can discuss war strategy for current and past wars in DF but do not argue the merits of real life wars. Any non-DF war discussion will be considered spam.

Mild role-playing is allowed in official war threads (such RPing isn't permitted anywhere else in DFGD) but it does not give license to troll, flame or break any other rules. Role-playing as a minion of Seppy/on the side of evil is by its very nature trollish and not really related to the game of DF since there is no "Evil Hero", do not do it. Poetry or a story from the prospective of someone on Seppy's side is allowed as a work of literature in the L&L Forum's "War Stories and Poetry" threads made specifically for for DF War related writing.

Short poems/songs/war cries (with a maximum length of 7 lines) are welcome in war threads (and nowhere else in DFGD). Do not only post your literature, participate in the discussion as well, within the same post. Longer written works about the war belong in L&L Forum's "War Stories and Poetry" thread. If you want to post links to your work in that thread in the official war thread you may, but make sure it's not the only thing in your post. Same goes for links to songs you listen to while fighting war waves. Feel free to share the songs but also participate in the War discussion and do not discuss the songs themselves or the artists, as they are not war related discussion. If you want to link any youtube videos for other players to listen to while warring, it must be able to meet the AE Forum requirements which is PG. To do this, simply use quietube. Here's how:
  • Link " http://quietube6.com/v.php/ " before the URL of the video you want to link.



  • Looks like we have our unlucky / lucky day war after all, heroes! Let's show them what we're made of. BATTLE ON!




    Rubioalto -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/20/2020 22:23:04)

    Time for war! (and also farm defender medals I guess.)

    Top of the Hour Wave Count Update

    We have defeated 8,206 waves since the war started, 8,206 waves since the war began about 50 minutes ago (I'm estimating?)

    Our current speed is 205 wpm .

    We currently don't have much more information than that, so! Let's pick up the pace and see if we can get to that first percent to know what we're dealing with!




    DemonicDarkwraith -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/20/2020 23:04:54)

    Those Murmurs are the worst huh.

    spoiler:

    Guess who I just find?




    The Jop -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/20/2020 23:26:22)

    Is anyone else concerned that the Leftovers are categorized as human?

    Our current speed is 280 wpm , 75 wpm faster than the last update.


    Still looking for that first percent, bug good work so far! And Job - I don't think I want to know!




    Kurtz96 -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 0:06:34)

    Are the warmonger badges for an individual war or across all wars?




    Alpha Centipede -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 0:08:04)

    A war, huh? Can't say I wasn't expecting this. Won't be warring much until Monday due to some commitments though, so... Battle On!(?)

    Edit: Played a couple waves, and man are those Murmurs annoying. I absolutely love the art and choice of music in this war though, makes me feel like I'm going through Exaltia all over again.




    jgamer -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 0:38:56)

    This is a pleasant surprise. Happy warmongering everyone!

    @Kurtz96 - are you referring to the badges in the Book of Lore? I don't believe the Warmonger ones have been coded yet, they're still set at "Coming Soon", but I know they're on Dove's and Verly's (very very long) list to get to eventually!

    Larger war, I see! Let's keep up the pace, skeleton crew!




    Flabagast -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 2:26:11)

    Well I'll be darned, this is a war!
    spoiler:

    I was expecting this to be a lot freakier, but that intro cutscene was just so fun.

    Theory time!

    SOoo based on the fact that these "flagella" are cells, I'm going to assume that what we're fighting is some sort of organic infection inside a machine, the machine being Key (dur). I suppose these "curators" act like white blood cells, attacking any entity they see as foreign. The murmurs I'm not sure about though. They seem to possess characteristics of both the infection and Key's infrastructure.

    These gold soulthread looking things puzzle me too. Could they be related to the infection in some way? Are they what Lock and Key took from us last time we saw them at the Egg Hunt?




    HellsWolf666 -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 2:34:23)

    @Flabagast
    spoiler:

    if you look at the background it seems like the tissue like substance is inside the walls and under the floor rather than on top of it so it makes more sense if key is a combination of both organic and inorganic materials, this also explains the murmurs and we can assume that the reason they are attacking us is because key is broken.


    EDIT

    seems like we have 7M waves to beat




    Alpha Centipede -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 2:34:37)

    Well, I may or may not have spent too much time observing the Curators, but I do have this:

    spoiler:

    Seems like this is our war "progress bar"? I'm not too sure myself.




    Guchi -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 2:53:20)

    Finally! A war that I can participate well. Thanks to quarantine, I'll be at my home raging this war. For almost 13 years of my DF account, I only have been into a single war [:'(]




    Alpha Centipede -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 2:59:55)

    @Guchi: Welcome to the fray then! [:D]

    Top of the Hour Wave Count Update

    We have defeated 76,465 waves since the war started, 20,670 waves since the last update 60 minutes ago.

    Our current speed is 344 wpm , 69 wpm faster than the last update. At this speed it will take us 13 days 22 hours 57 minutes to defeat the remaining 6,923,535 waves.

    Next Milestone
    We are currently at 1 percent.To reach 25 percent, we need 1,673,535 more waves. At our current speed, this will take us 3 days 8 hours 57 minutes.

    Star's Unofficial Deadline:
    I challenge you all to finish this war in two weeks! To finish the war by Midnight (11:59pm) Server Time on Friday, April 3rd, we need a speed of 346 WPM.

    Our fastest speed for this war is 344 wpm and our fastest speed for all recorded wars is 6,786 wpm which was set in the Black Winter War of 2017.



    @HelllsWolf666 -
    spoiler:

    Actually, what the inside walls remind me of is what Book 3 Sepulchure looks like without the disguise/armor - the same shades and colors of the sweeps of muscle/organic armor thing. Which makes me wonder if the Shadowscythe has anything to do with the infection of Key...


    And looks like we're facing 7 million monsters to clear out of Key's head, whooo! I'm setting my unofficial deadline at the 2 week mark, but feel free to prove me wrong!




    Guchi -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 3:10:25)

    @Alpha: Thank you [:D] We can do this!

    @Starflame: Now that you mention it, it resembles something with Sepulchure and it has got to do with Shadowscythe. Book 3's main saga is now already involved with Shadowscythe so it makes sense that there's some relevance with Lock and Key being connected to it. This also adds some question or even an implication whether Key's malfunction has got to do with the artifact that Akanthus retrieved.

    @Guchi - Well, that would be *one* way to merge the story lines, but I'm really hoping Akanthus isn't involved here quite yet!

    And that's the last HWC from me for the night, fight on, Skeleton crew!




    Alpha Centipede -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 4:06:53)

    @Star: I can take over HWC.




    Flabagast -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 4:09:33)

    @Alpha Centipede
    The Curators' animations sure are mesmerising. Might be what the shadow of a rotating 4-dimensional tetrahedron looks like... And I think you're on to something concerning our "war metre". I didn't even consider the maze having an actual path to the centre.

    I hadn't considered that the fleshy stuff might be underneath the structure. It seems quite clear now that I see those missing floor tiles. You might be right about Key being both tech and tissue, HellsWolf.

    I don't know if it's Shadowscythe though... The colours don't look red enough to me. Those flagella are apparently cells, and I recall the Doom threadworms being classified as ???. Though I have been wrong before!




    Alpha Centipede -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 4:16:32)

    @Flabagast: Actually I think the Curators are just 4 stellated octahedra (three-dimensional hexagrams) rotating around the center with each orbit in the shape of a four-leaf clover, but I'm not sure whether I trust my observational skills or not.




    Dratomos -> RE: =DF= To War! Archive E-189-L (3/21/2020 4:50:45)

    Morning everyone, I was hoping if I would wake up for a war, but that was more like wishful thinking.[:D]
    spoiler:


    I did thought that maybe the war would be inside Lock's head, but it was done very well. Welcome Guest was a great introduction to this.

    And I'm thinking, since this is kind-of Friday the 13th war, was this done by Remthalas?

    ^ I see it now. Four of them, each of them a pair of tetrahedrons joined by the edges. You're right on the money. Very well observed!
