Well, here's a capper for ya:
Carly Marno, who'd be writing this if not for the loop she's stuck herself in, has done something she shouldn't have done, and discovered a few things along the way.
1. If you bump up against a wall in explore.php enough times, eventually the map will flip (north is south, west is east).
2. While in this mode deep enough you can't be attacked.
3. While in this mode, you'll keep seeing "blocked" but you can still move; the result of this is that you can access all the listed towns and the two cities that aren't yet live.
4. Two of those cities have temples, but one, at least, has no god in it.
5. If you try and fight the god, you get stuck in a loop with no way out.

So there she is. Found out all sorts of handy-dandy stuff, even has the unreleased cities on her zip-zoom air list for quick reference when they go live, and can't say a word. I almost find it funny; I'm reporting it because it's huge though, and might need a fix.
Thanks for reading.

Okay, well, this is a cool bug. I'll figure out the solution later, for now I have reset her.

You can't be attacked because there's no mobs there. The cities are already in existence because that's just how I code. There's no gods because I have to make the mobs around the areas to base the gods off of first. The loop happens because this is a seemingly impossible thing to do, so why even code it?

I see that carly is either near the end or at it. Right now MonBre only has up to Cooridat because I want to populate the world with quests and tiles. There's not much to do in MonBre if there's no way to progress, but still a lot of people train on the wurms in cooridat or some will freeze their strongest monster and raise the others.

Thanks kindly for the fix, it's most appreciated. I'll stay away from the new stuff from here on out, and I hope no offense was taken either by what I did or by what Gregg said.
At this point, the only big thing left is how the heck to get a chimera...I've got no idea, and I'm quite curious. My evil monster's getting old, too, so I hope if he dies soon enough that I can train one of my others up nicely.
I have no quests left and no gods either, but I will still grind because that's just how I am. If nothing else it'll get me more bux and better drops.

I'm sure you are aware (with your play time) that I don't expect players to be at your position in 13 days of play. I'm still astounded people move as quickly as you, you're the fastest I've seen, on top of being blind... still I am glad that you enjoyed my game enough to get addicted to it.

There's gonna be two new quests tonight. Coding them now... yehaw.

Lol, yeah, I gave up trying to keep up with people after about a week or two. I killed two gods in one day, and I thought that was a lot XD

I did this precisely for this reason. I wanted to catch up to you...and the funny bit is that I was actually entirely MIA for a full four days in that two-week (more like twelve day) span, and I've taken it easy just lately.
No no, please please don't take it as a knock at your speed, I'm neither impuning nor challenging it. I just tend to move fast, is all, and when I learn how a game works, I tend to really go to town on it. Besides, the more I learn and faster I build, the more I might help later.

So will anyone tell me how to get a chimera? silly emoticon

Yes, I know this whole message isn't precisely helping squash or address any bugs, but...uh hey, look at that, a knock-knock joke!
Knock knock.
Who's there?
Amos.
Amos who?
Amos quito bit me!
...Ahem, and there we have the bug part of being on-topic. Don't mind me, I lack sleep.

Well, now you're up with the rest of us silly emoticon

I can't tell you how to get a chimera, because I don't even have one yet. I don't think anyone else will, either, because it's... A SECRET!

Also, Amos is the name of a character in this french book series I always used to read for school projects. His job was to keep the forces of good/evil in balance!

But yeah, quest and other things will be coming along every once in a while, so at least you can do those when they come in.

I cannot tell you how to get a chimera, but I can tell you that it depends on how long you play, or at least, if you are -trying- to get a chimera, how hard you are willing to play.
