Hmm, The short version is i'm blue, 3 apples tall, and enjoy my time by expanding my skill set and knowledge in atitd, along with doing what I can to help Egypt grow.
 
  
−
The slightly longer version is I played a little bit of tale1 and 2 while I was very noobish to the game, to where my big project was getting enough wood to make a simple brick rack.
+
    Not really sure where to start. I been playing since tale 1,2,3, part of 4 and now i'm back for Tale 7. What keeps ATITD one of my favorite games is the unique community. I been playing MMO's among other types of games most my life and ATITD has the most kind and helpful community in any game i seen, along with the amazing players there tons too do. Love exploring new skills, building complex stuff, helping Egypt grow so to speak by finding what we need and doing what i can too provide it.

But after I came back near the beginning of Tale3 and found a guild that was like a family too me ( Horus Tears ) They helped me grow and taught me about the deeper mechanics of the desert.

Q2. As some specific examples, would you consider any of the following playstyles as worthy of DP intervention? Obelisk queue violation, bonfiring of a clay patches to prevent others from building, using large quantities of alts to rig elections, mentorship advancement, or other test passes?
−
Now I take the opportunity I get to help anyone I can, especially those new too the game. I figure if I can show them what the game is really about then they are more likely to enjoy themselves.
+
This is a tricky subject. But all of these are game mechanics and seem to be fully supported by the staff and the community. So I really do not see these are worthy events of intervention. Whats a worthy event too me would be purposely building wood planes around someones CP and after numerous attempts to communicate with the offendent to remove them, and proves unsuccessful I would intervene in what way I can, avoiding harsher punishments as long as i am able.

I trust a good portion of the current DP's to where even if I felt strongly towards taking higher actions I would still go with the majority of others, Its when people act alone in situations like these that cause the drama, Egypt isn't build by just 1 persons idea or willingness, but from the community as a whole. Of course I would state my opinion and bring all facts I know about the situations too the others, but alas its the majority vote I would go with.

'''Q4. How's your progress in other Leadership tests?'''

'''Q4. Many activities in Egypt are PvP oriented/ highly competitive. Recently some issues have been discussed in ET regarding Test of Retired Pirates. Please explain how you approach these sorts of tests and if as a player you use any method to improve your outcome like having alts/mules voting in other rounds to enhance your pass chance. Do you push/campaign your guilds to vote for you and or forming test/rounds alliances or salt rounds with players that have already passed.
+
My current focus is on Body and Arch test mainly at the moment. After i get some important ones too me out the way i'm gonna broaden myself more to the group activity ones. So the short answer is not too well, I don't even think I've done the principle to most of the leadership ones.

Ahh Test of the retired pirates. The biggest drama making test ( In my opinion ) we have. Personally I love the test, it shows a lot about a person intelligence and problem solving skills into short little rounds ( When there played the way the test intended ) Now I do not however condone how some may use alts and slaves to further themselves in these test, or do I believe in having 'pacts' with other players that carry over to other rounds. I personally like to lay all my words and ideas into the main chat of the test, and not to talk behind the captains or anyone else backs.

I host/run many small events along Egypt. From digs, cement stirs, gravel smashing, marble pulling and a few others I cant recall along with running a guild called SeedQuests. SeedQuests main goal is to provide Egypt with new herb growing spots ( Places to grow all your herb seeds you been collecting ) And currently we are working on a new aqueduct pump and 35+ Towers to go along with it.I help lead others in teaching them how to plot lands for herb spots along with gathering resources to build the pump. And just like we did with the last tower line, we are letting those who need to pass the principle build them for us.

Ahhh leadership. There always around in large groups.

Along with teaching new players to help grow the community. My next project along these lines are to organize a dig for the mats needed in cement for research. currently getting chariot repair 2 up and running then off to the explosive labs for gravel.

Now this question alone fits my motto of "Helping Egypt Grow". Since I started in this tale ( had to take a few months break since the start of it due too real life events....I got engaged, woot!) I look for what Egypt was most lacking and try and fill that hole to further the growth and economy of Egypt, I saw there wasn't anyone selling glass products anymore ( Dist coils, wine glasses, Etc) So I spent a ton of time and research into developing new ways to make higher quality products with my ability to practice enhanced by the kind people giving me glass to practice with, I in turn paid their generosity forward by donating my practice glassware to research, along with offering my skills free to any research project., I went out and got the moss 7L was struggling with, I help new players in the game get settled and teach them about the mechanics and activity's, I Run a guild called SeedQuests and bring new seed growing spots to Egypt though them. There a lot I do to help Egypt just like most players do, and that is why I love the community so much here.

In Earlier tales I would of been against them, but as I grown more into ATITD I learned the game has also grown into the use of macros and I fully believe in the rules they use. Without being able to mass produce most amenities we use, the economy and many test in ATITD would crash. Especially before we had ways to mass produce many things with our new fancy research. having to make paint 1 DB at a time, or planting veggies before we had the pyramid and aquaduct bonuses, Egypt needs macros to help run the game.

Griefing is in every game on the internet but unlike most games out there, its a lot more easier to spot in ATITD. I personally see griefing as building on other lands to block them from expanding to growing there plot of land Or even taking from public chest and donation Warehouses, of course there those who just don't know better and will most the time return the stuff if you just explain yourself.
