The quest in question was this
https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/mon-of-the-dead-quest.242998/
Though it might have been a later thread that triggered the ban that created QQ, you’d have to double check.

At the time the QM was running other more prominent quests like
https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/witch-quest.232691/
https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/azula-quest.246137/
Probably some others too.

For more information i’d ask one of the QQ staff that was around from the beginning. They’re pretty chill people, if you explain what you are doing one of them will probably explain in detail.

>You'll find a fairly in-depth article on that history here by a veteran quester.
FWIW, that was me. :D

By the same token, I might be "vetean" but I'm also EXTREMELY out of the game. (Even though I technically finished a quest a week ago :V )

I wouldn't trust myself as a source very far beyond what I wrote in the essay. One thing that pushed me to write that essay was a desire to write down what I knew before I forgot it. I haven't really been keeping up with questing since 2014.

>>128777
I'm not sure if MSPFA died when I made the original chart, but it should definitely reflect it now.

Actually, remind me, what year did it die?


By the way, something that was mentioned in the replies to that essay was how Spacebattles had text-based proto-quests which actually predated Problem Sleuth, though they really failed to gain any traction. However, it might be worth mentioning since SB later turned into a huge text-questing site via cross-pollination from /tg/.
(Its "Roleplaying, Quests, & Story Debates" subforum has 8 million posts(!) However, only a portion of those are actual quests, because the forum owners hate quests and won't give them a subforum for some reason.

Seriously, it's nuts how big the community exploded despite actively hostile administration that keeps shoving it in corners.)

>>129003
SB administration just seems hostile in general. I guess they're used to it.

>>129003
The MSPA forum, which contained the Forum Adventure board, went down at the end of March 2016. However, the MSPFA site which was a seperate place that had the purpose of mirroring forum adventures, saw a huge increase in adventures being started there, even though there wasnt a way to send commands there. What started happening a lot was people hosted adventures there and used a discord server or the tumblr ask function or something else to get commands (theres a comment feature thats been added since then though). The Omegaupdate forum was also made as a stand-in when the MSPA forum died and it has a Forum Adventure board, but it sees way less use than MSPFA.
So basically, MSPA-inspired quests didn't exactly die when the MSPA forum closed, they just went through a big change. A lot of the older users went to Eagle Time or never returned afterwards, and I would consider Eagle Time distinct from MSPA stuff at this point.

>>129010
I finally found the time to read your history "quest".
Thanks for your research effort ten11, this was very informative.

If there's one criticism I'd have, it's that seeing the graphs of daily created adventures, I was more curious about daily *updated* adventures (or "active" adventures, i.e. recently updated ones)

>>135283

Really happy to hear that! I'm trying hard to avoid dumping too much information now, since I feel like I may be overwhelming readers with too much information.

>>135257
It's the internet - people will always be horny.

Anyway, enjoying the quest so far!
Always love me an air of mystery.

Hmm, Magnolia. I hear your work involves sleeping on the job? Or daydreams? Well I think I may have something for you.

It was hard to collect, but the tears of a Gullwark has a very wonderful fragrance of melatonin! This melatonin perfume bottle will do wonders for your... uh... presence!

I believe that covers everyone then! I hope to see you all next half-year!

I felt like trying this. It was hard because there was only one MAJOR influence for Team Port Echo (which is the obvious Teen Titans vibe). And each character represents an alien trope.

(From left to right): Teen Titans, District 9, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, Ratchet & Clank, Titan AE, HR Giger,Generic Sci-fi Tropes, and Hitchhiker's Guide.

Here's another one of these sorts of things I found on the interwebs.

>>96158
I was a bit surprised to find 16-bit DLLs in this archive. The images are easy enough to extract, but the string tables less so (Visual 2005 gives me mojibake), and the order of strings in it is a bit weird, especially when I don't know how to access the string tables' resource IDs with my hex editor.

...I know what could help me: Does anyone have a link to the documentation that says which string ID is supposed to mean what?

>>96168
Whoops no wait, I found it on the old app's thread ( >>/questdis/5059 )

>>95430
You can just play them natively here with no issues.

For getting the strings out with a hex editor, it's good to note that the strings are packed in groups of 16, and the index of the block id is 1/16th of the string id.

>>96195
I know they're packed in groups of 16, the part that confused me was that the last two "stripping" quotes (936 & 937) are apart from the others.
(plus the fact the string bundles are stored in reverse order)

But now that I got the list of string IDs and what they mean, all became clear.

I feel like, just to avoid confusion, I should point out that this thread is out of date.

A new thread was made for a new version, over at >>95526

it would have been cool, but given Evelyn weird vibes, so you could have chosen to split apart or stay together. If you'd stayed together i would have had to draw a more complicated character design for several panels but the fly me to the moon ending would have been the same.

Vlad can make for a good spinoff quest imo

Vlad is fine, mostly unaffected by the apocalypse and still struggling with his chronic illness of lycanthropy.

you're right, he would make a good spin off quest. it would be about monsters in the city with the cats as peripheral characters. if you're not careful i'll end up making it

Perhaps if you don't like the ideas, you could post something yourself? It's rather annoying to have ideas shot down (even stupid ones like this) with no alternative presented.

>>70729
I did, it was dissected point by point as being stupid and then I deleted it.

Also, I am the first guy who came up with the idea of summoning grigori. You heard it being discussed on IRC most likely? Thing is, you just said "summon X" without saying HOW to do so

Armas knows somebody that almost certainly knows what to say to scare the shit out of everybody here, has enough schadenfreude to do so, and can communicate mentally with him.

Unfortunately, it's Amen.

What happened to this quest? Has it fully transitioned into an irc-game, died, gone on hiatus, turned invisible? Are there any more interesting irc-logs?

Indefinite hiatus. So yeah, it's dead.

Some relevant patreon stuff. I wrote this to accompany a Luvi story I wrote that you can read here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/luvi-winning-of-48193798

The Ramble

The thing about Luvi is that in a different world she would the main character.



Originally when I was brainstorming for Rogue the story was going to be Luvi being kicked out of her hive and going on a quest to find a new hive. It was going to be a comedy, and be about the misadventures of a rogue trying to find the one in a million chance of the hive that's just right for her, growing along the way. Luvi still went on this quest in the current story but despite maturing she didn't grow. I do think there's a difference there.



I think Luvi will be revealed as an interesting foil to Mac since Suggestors seem to want her to stick around. But even more importantly, Luvi is very fun to plan developments for and I have a lot in store for her. Some will even be good, I promise.
