O.O indeed

:blink:  so very very wrong. if someone dosent like you muling then yes you can switch one more time to pick everything up and stop

So I'm very, very wrong and yet you agree with me? Hmm. Do you agree or disagree that as the rules are currently written, seven people can be in a game chatting and muling, and if another person enters the game and does not give explicit permission for them to continue, then the other seven people must stop muling (after one more char switch)?

For the second one.  mainly its magic sets rares gems and uniques.... a few normals get dragged in too ie  normal diadem for imbueing or 6 socket ethreal Zerker axe  :D    also if two people want the same item.. the lottery is set up i'm not going into that.  but i say yes to sailboats lottery  heh.

I'll quote the rules as written.

Principle 1: ANYTHING you pick up while playing with a party, except health or mana potions or gold, belongs to the party and MUST be dropped in town.

Principle 2: Do not sell anything without permission from the party.

At first I was guessing that you and I have different definitions of the word "anything". But since you are including normal, magic, set, rare & unique items along with gems - I'll assume runes were left out by accident - that's close enough to anything and everything for me. Could you please explain how I have misinterpreted the rules as written?

As to the lottery, I don't have an objection to it. But it's a mechanism that's only necessary in a larger community.

And the last point.... where the HELL did you get that idea?&nbsp; :blink:&nbsp; Trust me when i say we lag behind and go to town alot Town dumps happen every four miniutes&nbsp; < town dump is taking all those intresting magics&nbsp; rares and the such to town and dropping them for later sorting.

Again, from the rules as written:

Avoid making a special trip to town to ID items. The party makes periodic trips back to town for repairs and pots, try to use this time to ID items in town.

and alot of players lag back

If the pace of play is too fast [...], grab what you can during the brief break after combat, and when the party moves on - you move on with it.

If you say that, in reality, the games play a lot more loosely than this, I'll believe you. It's similar to the relationship between the California vehicle code and the speed of traffic on the freeway. Theory and practice, may differ.

Since this discussion is about a reaction to the written rules not the actual practice of the AB, I don't see much basis for your rant. And back in the days when I played in AB games and was really active in the forums, it was a stand up group. (CoffeeGrrl was still around, if that helps date me.) So I'm not trying to denigrate the Basin in any way. It's simply that as a player I like to take my time - to stop and smell the corpses.
