Skippy 2466 Share Posted June 1, 2012 What do you mean by activity? Like, building activity, player activity...? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursolon 197 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Player activity in/around the building. In other words, the Witch is inactive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever 2648 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Yes, when I say watchtower, I don't necessarily mean sitting atop a tall structure and watching the area around it. The building will work as an outpost for the bannermen as well as an escape route. I don't mean watchtower. Since you stand unwavering in your entitlement (I can use this word too!), I suppose your 'claim' will have to go through. Neither of the out-of-character owners give consent, and the Witch most certainly will not either. She lives a quiet life, you see. Visitors come often, but she knows they'll never be able to break her seals. Who knows what foul magic may befall your character in this coming 'battle'. I also wonder just how you know of the contents of and under the tower without being shown by someone out-of-character. Makes me believe that this entire claim is motivated by out-of-character ambitions. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me believe that this entire claim is motivated by out-of-character ambitions. First off, do NOT take my quotes and edit them to your liking. Accusing me of meta gaming will get you nowhere. I have wandered the ruins and found a passage to the tower. I know the contents because I have been inside the tower through... A "side" door I won't elaborate on in the sake of keeping it a secret. Visitors never come, nor have I seen this witch in the time I have lived in the regions of guy_fields and statue_1 just outside the forest. Seventis came to this land nearly a month ago and I walk through that forest at least once a week. The tower is abandoned. I would like to speak to the one who plays the witch. Would you mind giving me their MC/Forum name? Or at least pointing them towards this thread... Now I wonder, without knowing the contents to the chests, due to the fact that I cannot open then, and considering this "witch" has no real power that isn't borderline powergaming, why would I be inclined OOCly to make this claim? We want the tower to create a set of tunnels connecting several landmarks in our lands. We also do not have the minas or materials to spare on building a new building somewhere. The tower isnt occupied and it already exists, exactly what we are looking for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ever 2648 Share Posted June 1, 2012 But your entire claim was for a watchtower. When I pointed out how bad a watchtower in this location would be, your promptly changed it from a watchtower. It's a watchtower that won't be used as a watchtower. Anyhoo, http://i.imgur.com/Gy6nf.png is abandoned too. Might want to conquer it. I haven't seen anyone come or go in a long time. I also wonder how that door was opened to you, seeing as it can only be opened from the inside. I'm just going to guess it was opened for you by the one who got glitched up into the tower. The owner, 'the witch' player, has already seen the thread. I already told you that she does not give her consent and she finds this claim 'bullying'. (Her words, not mine.) There'll be plenty of roleplay over this battle, no worries. I'm contacting loremasters as we speak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugarthecougar 57 Share Posted June 1, 2012 This is ridiculous how much resistance you are putting up to this. I've seen less resistance to warclaims on entire cities! The tower is right outside of the Duchy of Norjun and my character wants it. Is it so hard to believe that after living on my land for years IC that he would see this seemingly abandoned tower and decide he wants it? Not to mention the fact that Ursolon already mentioned our idea for an escape network and it's connection to the ruins. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nppeck 601 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I do believe that the picture you are showing is not anywhere close to Nojurn. The reason that your tower is being attacked is its location, namely inside the Dutchy of Nojurn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursolon 197 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 I made out to be a watchtower because I didn't want a ton of meta gaming over our escape tunnels. Looks like Skippy's already planning something. Splendid. Now you see you're going to lose the tower so you make smartass comments regarding our intentions. Can this witch not speak for herself? If she truly cares about losing the tower, she will voice her opinion herself. What do you mean you are contacting loremasters? I doubt your character would actually help defend this witch, if I am wrong, prove it to me. I want to hear from the real owner of the structure. I am tempted to lock this because I asked you to give us more information on the tower and instead, you decide to be a smartass. Don't let this fall into a flame war.

Not to mention the fact that Ursolon already mentioned our idea for an escape network and it's connection to the ruins. I'm not resisting. I'm just pointing out how illogical a tower in that location would be, not to mention that it's a server landmark. Just wait and see what the Witch has up her sleeve when her visitors come knocking. EDIT: SerahLove. PM her, she's the Witch, but I will be playing the Witch come the 5th. I'm contacting loremasters and writing up roleplay so that the Witch can defend her tower. She's not going to let some crazed (from her perspective) villagers run up and take her home without a fight. You can lock it for all you want, that's not going to change anything.

lugarthecougar 57 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Also, I don't know where the idea came from that we would be changing hoiw it looks.. We are going to keep it looking the same, I like how it looks. The most changes we will make is tunnels, which are underground and out of sight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most changes we will make is tunnels, which are underground and out of sight. Because, in its current state, it cannot function as a watchtower at all.

nppeck 601 Share Posted June 1, 2012 From what I understand, it would be a watchtower only in name. As in that would be what they would tell people what the tower is. Of course, it may have some other secret other than its purpose on the surface. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
