May 24, 2000 - Rumor of the
Hoary Mattekar Greetings Maggie! I am Morheru, a 24th level warrior on Frostfell. I saw your letter about snowmen possibly returning and hence, the possible return of the infamous Hoary Mattekar. If it does return, I can quickly say that I will be one of the first to start camping for the whole time it's back. But, an interesting little tid-bit reached my ear recently, concerning the location of this wondrous beast -- implying that it CAN STILL BE FOUND! I haven't look into this yet, but perhaps you can help shed some light on the subject. Mount Esper.....during a snow storm.....after forty kills of a certain creature....a Hoary is rumored to spawn.....only once....every forty kills.....during a snow storm.... Lemme know what you think! Morheru Hi Morheru -- I think it sounds like a great rumor, but just that: a rumor. Really, you've seen how long something stays a secret in AC -- about 2 minutes! If there really was a spawning hoary mattekar, that spot would be so camped the world would begin to tip from the weight in that corner! But, it's a nice rumor. I might post your letter and help spread it! Ha. - Maggie the Jackcat True, rumors are rumors. But, I want a matty robe so bad, I'm willing to try them all =) Morheru What can I say? The next several selections are included out of pure vanity! :-) Big thanks to all of you. May 24, 2000 - Fantastic Site!!!! I mean Wowie!! Yeah, I'm writing to say this has to be the best... THE BEST
SITE!! I mean it's great, I love the tourism guide, most other sites just give coords, you
also note what towns they're nearby. This site is fantastic, amazing, great
great great! Plus I love the comedy, the "dangerous fun" in hobbies
was hilarious, along with "Maggie's got this snowman by the balls" this is
just a fantastic site!! I LOVE IT!! May 24, 2000 - A Certain Coolness Just wanted to say I really enjoy your site; there's alot of
them out there but yours has a certain...shall we say...Coolness? to it. <G> Whenver
I need answers that um...have no questions I uh...come here... (Just kiddin!) I used your
instructions for the Atlan weps and now have a peerless Atlan sword! Thanks! May 24, 2000 - Your Site Is Awesome! Mags, May 24, 2000 - Go Maggie Go! Hello there Maggie, just want to let you know I love your AC web site. You are right! It is kick-ass fabulous =) I found your site today through Asheron's Tips, and I am shock how much useful stuff you got up there. Your little personal site got more to offer than all those big network sites. Heh heh maybe they are the one that should change their name to hobby site ^_~ Keep up the good work! Go Maggie...go Maggie...go.go......Maggie go! Valacard the Blood Knight of Thisledown May 17, 2000 - Frosty the Killer Snowman Returns! The following is an excerpt from a letter from Nandesu Ka. We were heavily in discussion about Mattie Coats. I don't know if the Snowmen were really out of the game or not, but they're certainly here now! Speaking of Bunny and odd things (the two seem to go
together) you'll *never* guess what he ran into this evening. Nandesu Ka
May 17, 2000 - Umbris Are Back! Umbris are back btw. Aazhian Hi Aazhian -- - Maggie the Jackcat May 17, 2000 - Correction on Dagger of Tikola The coordinates for the Folthid Cellar you have in the guide
for Dagger of Tikola are wrong: it's 53.7E,
not 57.3E.... Hi Angyr -- Thanks very much! It's just one more example of my poor tpying skills. I should put a disclaimer up! - Maggie the Jackcat May 17, 2000 - Dye Pools in the Dires Hiya again, People ask me all the time where particular stuff comes from, but I don't always know. I always say: Olthoi!! (But really, I have no idea!) One of the things I'm trying to do in the runway section is try to remember to ask people where they got their stuff. So far, the most common answer has been: "Traded for it!" which doesn't help me at all! If I get a good source for gold yoroi, I'll be sure to let you know. I checked into the dye pool in the dires thing. It's just a big fat lie, a made-up rumor, no such thing. Thanks for all your nice comments on the site! - Maggie the Jackcat May 17, 2000 - Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh And finally :) Game Name: many many names
Hey, Maggie -- - Ned Cleversun, Level 34 Archer/Mage (Life, Item soon) Hello, Best of Vassals -- What a pleasure it was to see your name pop up in a Letter to Maggie! I will try to address your questions and concerns. 1) The letter stating you were level 33 was an older letter that I am just now getting up. I will make the necessary adjustments! Since I know you have now made Level 35 (Congratulations!! You will love having Item!), I will change the front page and remark that you are now FOURTEEN levels above me. But not for long. I am just inches away from leveling myself! 2) You loyalty level is on the What's New page, although I can move it to the Front page if you think that's better. I adjusted the number to 100 the other day. May I add that it was *several* days ago that I adjusted the total to 100. I've heard rumors that Danier's loyalty stat is 147! 3) I am going to have to BUY you a Matty Coat on eBay. It seems to be the only way! I've hinted and begged, but fame does have its limits! And noone is more deserving than you. I am ashamed of my terrible Patron skills! Must be that 34 Leadership stat; it's the only explanation. - Maggie the Jackcat May 10, 2000 - IM-pee-us or im-PIE-us Your site is awesome! An excellent use of html to do the pages, easy format, good info. The best part? There is information here that doesn't appear on any other site that I know of. So, well done! Now on to my question, and it's a small point to be sure: In the Abreviation and Pronunciation section, shouldn't you add Im-pie-us as pronunciation to the Impious Staff entry? Both entries are correct (at least according to Merriam-Webster and I know I've always used the 'pie' version personally....) One last thing, do you want more screenshots of item stats
for things you might not have? If so how would you like them submitted. Thanks for the compliments on the site! I like that sort of thing! :) Now about the abbreviation for Impious. Well... you're wrong! Believe me, I was as shocked as you were to find that I've been mispronouncing it all these years. I was certain (absolutely certain) that Im-pie-us was an alternative pronunciation. But, it's not. I checked my Webster's unabridged (the big enormous fat one), and then checked the mother of all dictionaries, the OED (Oxford English Dictionary). Im-pie-ous was not listed as an alternative. Is that amazing, or what?! I am very much a word person, so it was a blow to me, for sure. I am delicate! And yes, I'd love shots of things I don't have pics or stats for yet!! If you send screenshots, I prefer non-compressed .jpg format and sent to this email address (my other email address sometimes has trouble with larger files): Thanks! See you in the game! - Maggie the Jackcat May 7, 2000 - Cragstone Farms Catering This is easily the easiest-to-use, most appealing AC site
I've found. Nicely done!!! I'd even say that if I didn't have a question! Thanks for the compliments on the site! Glad
you like it. I believe this is the site you're looking for: - Maggie the Jackcat May 7, 2000 - Nexus Shadow Armor Hello... I am interested in any information you may have on the Nexus Gem. I would like to obtain the Nexus Armor but do not know how to go about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Argon of Frostfell Great page lass, I'm enjoying it very much. Question: where
do you find the nexxus gem and how does it all fit into the shadow armor quests? This was a popular question in the recent
email I've received, so I thought this would be good mail to get up in the Letters
section. The nexus gem was a one time only quest during the Thorns of the Hopeslayer
event. The random portals which kept appearing throughtout Dereth opened into the spires.
Once inside, people faced the Shadow Captains and were rewarded with pieces of keys. - Maggie the Jackcat May 1, 2000 - Where Do You Get That Armor? I was just wondering where like you got to take those
screenshots of those high al armor like al 484 bp. And I was also wondering where I get
high base al armor. I already have a mattie coat that's nice and light, but like where do
I get those good leggings. And uhh do you know where i could get a gold heume? Hi Scowl -- You get high based armor by growing big and strong, my young level 13 friend! Geez. My level 33 vassal doesn't even have a matty coat! Or you can get it by having a *very* generous patron. I get my screenshots from in-game, in general. I ask, "That sure is pretty. Can I try it on, just to see what it looks like?!" Then I ****** away! It helps to have friends in high places. Or people send me stuff. Or I pop onto Ebay to check out what the cool kids have for sale. Or I have my secondary character who has the high appraise skill cruise the shopping circuit. I'd like to be able to say I get it from hunting Olthoi all day long, but that would be a big fat lie! I've never even seen an Olthoi, except in pictures! - Maggie the Jackcat May 1, 2000 - Splitpea Hi Maggie, Hi Hired Sellout -- The Splitpea program can be found here: http://cc.xrgaming.net/taper/ It's pretty nifty! It actually uses your existing spell formulas to help you find the tapers for the higher level spells, or at least narrow them down. Hope that helps, and thanks for the compliments! - Maggie the Jackcat |
