"Order" is such a misleading word. For us, it usually means PIZZA PARTY WOOHOO!

Okay, let's see... let's just open up this envelope... and the one inside it... and the one inside it... and the - why is there a ball of hair and toenails in here?! Is... is that a lump of-?! Yiiiick... here we go. Aha! Finally, something USEFUL to hold a poll on!

Well, everyone, here's what we've got today. Lorika, once you get past all the hair... and... blech... is planning on updating the BIT with more specific information about mechanics in the roleplay, including planar travel and the different types of potion available.

So you all remember the rainbow gems that have acted as magical catalysts so far in the roleplay. First described by Fel upon stealing one from Panda's room, they have played an increasing role, particularly in teleportative magic.

Well... they need a name! Please let us know what YOU want the magical jewels to be called by choosing from the above selection of names Panda and Lorika belched forth from their cloaca! Or, if you think you can do better - which you probably can, judging from that feeble effort - do post your suggestions below!

Also - jewels or gems? Or something completely different?

That's all. See you later! I'd better go dispose of this... uuughh....

No use putting in funky names if they don't have sensible meaning, is what I always say.

lol ruma! cause it means shift but sounds mystical. (and it was my idea

Tiri=bright mir=jewel. Panda's knowledge of elvish astounds even him, yes it does.

Also, I think such gems need limitations. such as certain time uses, certain distance or mass that can be transported, etc.

Maybe then they could be given out like mod items 03o which would be cool for contests and stuff.

-just throwing it out there-

What Maddness have I started!!!!!!!!!!

When I took the amethyst I had originally just ment it to be like a focus that you use to help make using your powers easier! And even then only in the sence of the storyline, never in actually adding points to combat.. lol!

bah! it's so hard to decide for me! I'm stuck between Ruma, Shift, and making up one of my own...

...tirimir should become tirimirit, because then it's a palindrome without altering the meaning (unless 'it' means something in elvish?)

bleh, scratch that. Mabo chooses shift because ruma doesn't roll off the tongue as nicely

shift had taken the lead o3o I should do these kind of things more often! People are getting involved! XD

just remember Bapp...all ideas have a chance of being implemented...its a small chance, but you've always been a take-what-you-can person it seems... (right? sweatdrop )
[/serious]

...and when I say small, I'd like to write it as a percent...but it's so far past the decimal point that I'd flood the page with the whole number, even when written in scientific notation

Whoo!!! ( (86.9 x 10^6) - (44.9 x 10^6) ) /1 million FTW!

((tee hee...math be fun))
