Apparently FNW prefers coding over getting drunk and being stupid with fellow fratters.

Not that I'm complaining, being an emu addict :D

last night i tried to log into my server via minilogin... couldn't get in. after selecting my bard and entering the world, i got the loading screen. the loading bar finished, the splash screen disappeared and then my harddrive starting churning like mad. ctd. the sad part is that i didn't change a single thing.

Well, as a follow-up to a prior post of mine in this thread... I tried out Bards in the 0.6.4 release, and wow... you rock FNW. There is only one small issue and that's with a command that has been added just in one of the last 2 expansions, so it's not something I EXPECTED to see in the game, but it would be nice.

Melody was added, or more appropriately /melody. This allows the Bard to 'autotwist' as many songs as they desire. So, like /melody 1 2 3 4 would twist the first 4 spell slots. If you miss a note, are stunned, etc (anything that causes a fizzle-like effect) the twist stops completely and you would have to start it over. Currently on the 0.6.4 build that we are running, we can do a /melody, however all it does is start singing the first song in the list... My guess would be that there is supposed to be a pulse/response/something coming back from the server to signify that the client needs to begin singing the next song? Not sure.
