Quote:


Just noticed that the Broken Music Box is clearly working as intended!

An intern got bored for a couple hours = Best QoL update since they decided to stop fucking everyone over with Single Window Fighting.

Surest sign of micromanagement. The game improves x100 when the employees (or reasonable facsimiles thereof) are accidentally given decision power over what to do with their time.

It may also be an opportunity to make them better.

They are selling collectibles in store. 5 for 245tp.

I can forgive you for this.  Only because it’s fun watching the forum paladins acting like the people in this video:

Does "procrastinate" hurt? I heard they did that to a lot of young boy singers in the middle age and renessaince Italy... (And to Justin Bieber.)
Blue stuff: you cannot be who you claim to be since you are openly promoting an exploit, and at WarnerBros, only they can exploit people, not the other way around.

The Chronoscope buff only worked for 1:00 hour in quests (out of 4 total). Once it dropped below 3:00 hours, it would continue to work in public ONLY.
Personally, I'm glad it's gone because I felt like I was forced to rebuff every 1 hour.

I used to think it made a big difference. However, I'm far too lazy to be enslaved to my ship buffs again now that they last for multiple hours. So, I never actually went back to the ship to rebuff every hour and the difference between having this bug working and not became barely noticeable. Even when I would go back to my ship every hour to sell and repair, I still wouldn't hit the amenity bar on the way by because that meant having to wait a bit for all the buffs to repopulate on me and also because things like Lay On Hands uses would be 1 lower than their maximum until I rested. I know that doesn't seem like much either, but it offends my peculiar obsessiveness. And since we've already established that I'm lazy, it should go without saying (even though I'm saying it) that I'm too lazy to stand around and wait for a "rest" to happen on the guild ship's main deck.
