He who must not be named
February 8, 2000
 
There are some who look at how fast He-who-must-not-be-named is leveling, and think "Man, I need to catch up. I'm not doing something right. He's just advancinmg so fast."
No.

What I am doing is work, not fun. The only reason I am advancing so fast is because I have already been

to Plateau Village
to Banderling Hill
to The Arena
to the bottom of the Folthid Cellar
to the beaches of Mayoi
to the Matty Cave
to Arwic Mines #2
to the Lug Cave
to the Mite Maze
to the portal storms of Qualab'ar

This is a game of exploration and fun - but I have already done all the things that my level can do that are amazing.
So He-who-must-not-be-named stands in one spot and levels. Day after day after day. Just to get back to the point I was, so I can start exploring again. No exploring, no adventuring, no fun.
Take your time. Enjoy the levels you are at and all the challenges that come with it.
ok
another word on He-who-must-not-be-named
Some do not know, so I feel I must explain
The name comes form the book Druss the Legend. Druss has many names The Slayer, The Sender, Captain of the Axe, Deathwalker, The Legend. All of them were taken.
The other thing is that I neeeded more anonyminity. The low level vassals things worked its way out very well, and those messages stopped almost entirely, so thank you.
But, well, Druss had made too many friends and published his name too much in the Magic community and once a night somoene would msg me and say "Is this Jamie Wakefield?" and I would be trapped for twenty minutes talking to someone I did not know. Of course, this didn't happen every night, but some nights it would happen three times. - so it all evened out.
Of course, the other thing is, some of these people would then add Druss to their frieds list, and I would end up getting msges from them randomly as they were bored.
It just got too much, and I just wanted to play the game again. And play it with friends that I know as The Source. It pained me to do it - but the frustration factor was amazing.
So I now have He-who-must-not-be-named.
And last but not least, I think it might be nice to have a real monarch lead the source, and will pledge Druss to anyone who can exceed him in level, is part of The Source, and The Source say is OK. to be monarch. Perhaps Mizu, Miko, Simone, Gar, etc etc etc can take turns being Monarch?

later
