I haven't seen any posts by Royce for a few days.

Either he's on vacation or maybe he's AWESOMENESS! Guy knows enough to work for STS anyway.

He's definitely NOT AWESOMENESS.
AWESOMENESS is a developer, someone that helps develop the game itself, not someone that has knowledge about the game. Just go with your first hunch, he's probably on vacation or taking a break or has some other issues.

It was a joke, but you generally do not use the word develop in the definition of the word developer. Appreciate the boldness for the emphasis though.

Hmm, he strangely disappeared around the US elections of November 4th. Maybe he is a politician and he lost. :)

Lol it doesnt matter who's leading it. America is down the same road. Slowly and slowly more and more control is going to the government (not a bad thing but also not good for economic and social growth). Politics is basic logic that is overcomplicated way too much. Keep it simple and America will be good :).

Well I wasn't with him in pl we were just pming about it. He sent last message was on november third around 4:00 saying that he was going to a movie and said he would be able to get on later that night. i messaged him back asking if 9:00 or so was ok and he didnt respond. messaged him again a few days later and still no response...

Went to the movies on the 3rd, and then strange disapearence... my theory is...
1. went to movies with his girlfriend
2. got a little tipsy afterwards and had a fabulous time
3. decided they wanted to get married right then
4. Plane to las vegas that night

This is perfect. Now I'll be able to ask him if drinks stack on top of one another or do we need to add a chaser to get the combo to work.

MY THEORY

Some rogue forum member(probally twinktastical) wanted to beat royce to the newbie helping

SO he gave royce a free thoth 50 plate (which was painted with battery acid)
then gave royce a blunt...
and now twink can help noobs BEFORE royce.

I just hope he is busy and nothing is wrong.

dirtball

11-11-2010, 04:33 PM

Perhaps he OD'd on PL and now he's running around the house slashing anything that moves.

Kidding, but looks like he has been on 11-9...unless it's just someone's alibi. "Last time I saw him he was playing PL on his Ipod."

Tailless

11-11-2010, 08:05 PM

maybe he was trying out the Beta and found a bug that makes the boss come to life and materialize in the real world.

11-11-2010, 08:33 PM

I honestly miss him... devs should send out one of those newsletters about 1.5 soon, capitalizing that they have nerfed the rush lol

Or say in the newsletter.. Royce come back to the forums and you will get to be a moderator..

He would be back before the email was sent.

I've read some of his posts and heard talk of him.. I feel like I came in just too late to be witness to this legendary bank of PL knowledge known as 'Royce'
maybe if enough noobs show up and ask questions he'll be drawn by unexplainable forces to reply..... HEY! I'm a noob!!! uh.............. how should I break up my remaining points after meeting str requirements into wis and dex on my pally??????!!!?! :DDD

Is he back yet?

Ellyidol

11-20-2010, 05:05 AM

Felt this thread worthy of revival. Still have't heard/seen anything from him. Hope he's okay, he helped me heaps when I started out and taught me as much.

Arterra

11-20-2010, 09:29 AM

he gave me a snipers scarab bow. of course, i soon after farmed a isis scarab bow so no biggie lol.

prepare the van. I'll hack the servers to find his last IP adress, Tastic you go and get us tranquilizers. While we're at it, grab Squirrely and bring him back on to the forums, slap Rarefew a few times and track down Furrawn and holybeanz through the gps i embedded in them.

I've got coffee, cola and Doritos for the road trip. Also a couple Blinkdog bloodhounds; they might come in handy if Royce tries to go multi-dimensional on us. And an ear-tag. Don't want trouble from any game agents.

Lmao! This is one reason why I love PL. You can do so anonymously..... You never know who you are really playing with. So it's all on gameplay.

good ole royce. he was always on the fourms, i think he went into hiding after he pissed off the russian mob. last time he made them mad they almost killed him, but settled for chopping off one of his toes.

Royce

11-20-2010, 02:30 PM

Hi guys. I appreciate the concern and speculation. I was taking a break (should have put that in my sig or something), and will be back as usual shortly. Would probably have been back sooner if I had known they nerfed the rush :D Anyway, I'm doing some catching up through the forums now, but if anyone wants to give me a rundown of of major topics I'd appreciate it ;)

Welcome back.

CanonicalKoi

11-20-2010, 02:40 PM

Rejoice! It's Royce!

Rush is nerfed, armor and skills stats have been changed. Mages are no longer dying like one-shot flies. Much happiness and many cries that the sky is falling. In other words, things have changed and the fora are as normal. ;)

Nice to have you back! Now the Blinkdogs are upset that they won't get their run. :( C'mon, boys! You can chase Arterra! :D

Lesrider

11-20-2010, 02:41 PM

Oh and they Nerfed everything, not just the rush. Ao3 bosses are mush now.

What's that? No, I don't know if Arterra tastes like bacon. Hmmmm? No, I don't think we need to build a pit-trap full of Heinz 57 sauce. Okay, the next one of you Blinkdogs that says, "Arf! Arf! Timmy fell down a well!" is going to get smacked with a rolled-up dictionary. It wasn't funny the first 200 times. Look, go find him, okay? Just shoo. I said shoo!

Whew, welcome back, as said above rush nerfed have to clear a percentage of mobs before boss spawns, stats and base health/strength change stats impact skills more, all weapons and armor nerfed, mobs adjusted.

Overall game is better and more fun.
