    It’s sunday night TAG – what’s the ETA for Beta????????

    [quote=Tizzy;4941]So that’s with the profile update broken emails I emailed you about.

    When we moved the server where it is, behind a real firewall, we started getting DNS rebinding issues with the avatars because of how the system stores them.

    It’s been a pain in the butt that I can’t seem to fix.

    So, what you need to do is delete your avatar first in the “main site” user profile and then in your forum profile. Make sure both are blank.

    If you have trouble, I can do that.

    Then you go to gravatar.com (Globally Recognizable Avatar) and create a free account, add the email address that you use here (the one that had deliver issues a bit ago) and then upload the avatar you want and associate it with the email address.

    BTW if you don’t know about the email bouncing it’s probably because my personal email to you forwarding one of the bounce messages probably bounced, you may want to check to make sure your email address is correct/current in your account here.

    Thanks Tizzy

    I’ve done the Gravatar.com but and uploaded pic and linked it to my email address. What do I do next to make it appear in here?

    He must call the planes of humans the planes of meat. As in humans are meat?

    So how do demons get more powerful over time? Going from a second-order to a third-order as an example

    Well we know it’s possible for demons to get more powerful over time and increase what order demon they are.

    [quote=The Author Guy;4920]A ghoul is someone that is infected with antimus, and in order to survive, and not age and decay, ghouls have to eat live flesh (or very very fresh flesh)

    ghouls are alive but very sick. They are driven by ravening hunger for flesh (they can’t get enough from blood to satisfy their needs as they can’t process blood like a vampire)

    ghasts are ghoul “bosses” (in the game sense) they are ghouls that can mostly control their hunger, either because they are very old ghouls and have adapted and can better process animus when they eat, or various other possibilities, perhaps they were drain more and got close to being a vampire.

    a wight, is a zombie ghoul or ghast.

    Yes, will be filling this out/fleshing it out, so to speak.[/quote]

    Thank you x

    [quote=The Author Guy;4918]The problem with a Tizzy input is that no one at Mount Doom knows about the Dark Apostle, or not much, nor the Mind Reaver stuff that the wizard tizzdale was doing.

    [/quote]

    Hmm. Surely if Tizzy killed the dark apostle then he knows about the inter-planar ward thing and would really understand the danger and try to impart some information to the council – even of its a roundabout way not revealing his involvement. Which raises the question of when Tizzy is to be revealed????? Can’t wait for beta so can read from start to end x

    Oh great Tizzy I need you infinite wisdom. Why don’t I have an avatar picture? I uploaded one but doesn’t seem to be working!?!?!?!

    Good idea – I admit there were times I was thinking what the hell is a ghast?!?

    Also I felt like crying when I realized there was no more to read . . . Sob

    I was a bit surprised at Orcus’ son in the wedding scene. Everyone ‘sees’ Lord Tommus as Prcus mark 2 and yet the seem to treat Rupert as Rupert rather than Orcus’ son mark 2?

    [quote=The Author Guy;4898]You would have had to go back to that chapter and read it again being aware that it was there, so you didn’t miss it in mind numbing mode.

    I should have told people that it was there, and to explicitly read it…but I forgot.

    I wrote the new lines, specifically to setup the Wedding Party, and then completely, totally forgot that I had done so until I was reading through looking to see where I could foreshadow.

    If the guy the wrote the lines can’t remember he wrote them, how is someone re-reading for the umpteenth time going to know to look.[/quote]

    I missed that bit because you told us to start reading from chapter 139 lol

    I actually liked the Rede/Father scenes. Up until now the storm lords very much felt like a faceless enemy. Didn’t really connect with them. I think these scenes enhanced the plot given that we are heading to a big conflict with them. Also shouldn’t Tizzy have had some input at the meeting given that the ‘Wizard Tizzdale’ defeated the dark apostle.

    [quote=The Author Guy;4772]Actually, your second question is answered by Talarius & Edwyrd in Alpha 3. Tom explicitly chose a similar (so easy/doable) but different looking person, Tom didn’t want anyone recognizing Edwyrd

    Working on getting it out, but having font issues for PDF. Word itself is getting the bookmarks right, but has funky fonts, so trying to embed, but it’s locking up.

    my pdf program gets fonts right, but misses the book marks.

    [/quote]

    So are you doing Alpha 3 as pdf and word or sticking to pdf and epub. I remember you talking about different file formats

    Have you decided to go for two week releases then? Also the BIG QUESTION – when will we get the 1st beta i.e. to the end of the book?

    P.s Loving the idea of Talarius going over to Toms side but I can’t quite see how it’s going to happen. I know he’s started learning about the origins of demons etc and doutbing but seems like you’re realling going to need something to absolutely make up his mind. Maybe Ruiden asking Volund about demon making as per mention.

    Any way happy writing x
