Can we breath new life into this rotten corpse. I put it to you that the precise figures are 51 and 76% respectively. LOL And we all know that heavily modified means new colours and the addition of 26 new races all with the exact same bonuses, the changing of the welcoming screen, editing the wiz list and the renaming of Midgaard to something fantasy sounding and lastly moving a few exits in the merc mud school and editing the newbie gear to have alternate colours to induce an epileptic episode in those predisposed with said affliction.

Yay for thread necromancy, to state that what matters is 50%, but actually 75%! :wink:

What?! Unless you've changed the default prompt you're definitely stock no matter what!

Sweet, I've changed my default prompt. I'm no longer stock!

in my opinion, you are no logner stock when you have rewritten over 50% of the original code, and added atleast 80% of it is your own code, otherwise yer a snippet-stock! ;)
or you write your own MUD, thats when yer truely original.

Is that Tax GST/VAT or some other consumption tax at a fixed rate, or is it some kind of marginal tax scale dependent on how many new races you have added, how many classes you have renamed and zones that have been re-arranged?

However, you can get a break to 47.3% and 55.8% if you roll your code into a CD, or other long-term archival investment.
How many more posts do we need to get an Epic drop?

But is it so much fun David, it is good to have something to giggle about between rounds on Combat Arms. There has been too much seriousness and now we need an outlet.

Well atleast Conner is getting into the spirit.
You know, as an aside, i have been wanting to make an Alt name on all the boards and announce that im making an Olympics Bejing 2008 mud and require staff for all positions. I think ROM would be the best choice of codebase to use for this as it lends itself to lots of race class combos. There would of course be 205 races, 1 for each nation competing, classes would be Athlete, Trainer, Coach, Official, Communist Party Official and the like, there would be heaps of skills and mini games, like sprinting and shot putt.
Anyone else have any ideas to contribute to this game to help make it non stock. LOL.

My Beijing 2008 MUD would have a fake fireworks display at login, and even though you think the output is coming from the MUD, it'll actually be coming from somewhere else. Furthermore, it'll certify that it has been around for 16 years, even though last year it was only 14. Not that this has any basis in reality… of course. :wink:

No, it's what you get when you read some random memory in your new ub0rh4xx spiffy snippet:
ch_printf( "Spiffy: %s" );
It's not a bug; it's non-stock!

Be careful about talking about anything politically sensitive, wouldn't want to see this thread locked before reaching 100 would we?

Congratulations on being the reason for this being locked, well done. Next time keep the trolling to yourself.
