23 Runeword Search Thread

Cherokee said:
ok folks, this is just a non-functional prototype screen (not hooked up to a database or anything), but give it a quick look and let me know what you think. Right now, this is just an example for a single item type's 2os grid.

It looks/works best in IE 5.5 or higher (gives you nice rune name highlighting to lessen the chances of clicking in the wrong box), but is also functional in Firefox. I haven't tried Opera, Konquerer, Netscape, Mozilla, or older IE browsers.

Everyone, but most especially Wathombe - Please let me know if you think it's worth using an interface like this to store the tested combinations in a database.

I think this is sweet man! It would make inputting more interactive. I am sure that you would be able to program it to confirm or delete runewords (for example, if someone misclicked). I would hesitate however, in giving everyone access. (then again, I am just paranoid). :surprise:

Testing Update:

I have TONS of runes on a mule, so will be testing tonight!
 
who needs orbs for testing, cuz i know that we needed like 300 more to finishe the mini-goal of pul pul, i have like 7 or 8 since last night and they are starting to get in the way, message me as *alphaomega4444 and we will meet up

What realm are you on? If it is East Sc, I'll take them off of your hands now.

Thanks again, Alpha

then i found out i cant host it with what i usually use (not allowed .xls files, pshhhh) what a waste
 
Looks like rushing on USEast is done before it got started. Even after offering to Andariel-rush everyones mules quickly all night long I got no takers, and considering what effort I had to go through to get Shocker's rush going and only a few characters made it into nightmare due to it I don't think rushing is going to happen on this realm in the forseeable future.

As for cows, they're going as well as Baaling, which is rarely-if-ever. We've had a few people show up for one or two but that was some time ago and nothing since. Although I can herd cows a lot easier solo (and without a merc) there are barely any drops, and what drops there are aren't the very runes/socketables we need most times.

I doubt I can name seven other RuST USEast players regularly online these days, and a lot of those names that are in the forum member list don't ever come online. DarkTrillarian is always in Starcraft or something, and several players have just plain quit. USWest is doing far better, oddly. Seems you had the practices going before the big influx of new members, so you've had a lot more success at getting full cow games going.

I honestly think only three things are even keeping me playing this game: nothing else to do, trying to accomplish at least some of the things I set out to do (having fun got dropped a long time ago) and this runeword hunt. After ladder season two I'm not sure if I'll even want to play this game any more, especially with not much chance of RuST members forming a real clan or anything and trying to get that first L99 together.

Anyway, I'm going to be looking for other things to do to occupy my time until I either find a job or die. Not sure which I'm looking forward to more. I'll keep an eye on the thread and see if things change. Remember, I still have plenty of skillers sitting around, if people need them let me know.
 
i know what you mean, my blizz sorc is almost ready for hell cows, but it doesnt even matter even more cause there are never any east cow games, i have been working on an item find barb (wont be able to kill the cows but that extra 50%drops is gonna be sweet) he is getting close to ready to go to hell cows too, but once again, it wont matter unless ppl start playing
 
axe i finished my classic rusher shes good to go i also go mulit cdkeys also wit a follow bot now i play in the morning i will rush or u rush whatever i play around 5am to 2 pm and ill also cow tooo
 
The app is working pretty well, actually storing all of the tested combinations in a database and all that. I've not yet put a username/password requirement on it, as I want people here to feel free to play with it for a bit and give thoughts/suggestions.

If people like it, I'll leave it up to wathombe if he wants to switch over or not.

It's barely workable in 800x600 (tip: hit F11 for a fullscreen mode), but it looks pretty good in 1024x768 and 1280x1024. I can worry about prettying it up later if the effort seems justified. I'll also worry about putting it on a real hosting provider later if that seems necessary.

Feel free to play around everyone... I will clean out the database of any garbage entries before a decision to go live with it for real.
 
uswest, contact me for free items. seriously im offering a full mule of free items if people need them. im jammed full now and i need room.
 
excellent job cher0kee, that is super-leet.

also, i am looking for a hell rush (usually i believe ppl who give up there forge for a rush are crazy) but i would not mind at all giving my forge to one of you since it will go to Hunt (or let me keep it, it will still go to the Hunt) pure-cold sorc is having much difficulty getting anywhere at all

also cher0kee, if u want to cow sometime (i hear that your sorc is exceptionally good at it : ) i would like to see how benefitial this itemfinding barb of mine is. i figure than an 60% of the drops could = really big payouts in less time, so call me *alphaomega4444 if you want to try it

edit: evilspork, if you have anything that a orb/blizz sorc can use, i would love to have it, she has levels but no items : /
 
AlphaOmega4 Are you on USWest? If so what is your accnt? I can rush you anytime if you are on west. My accnt is Munster1.

Cherokee Looking great so far. I am really looking forward to using this to track tests, it will be much more accessible to a wider audience, which I hope will lead to a better retention of players and an increase in recruits (both donors and testers). Would it be possible to make a cell that has been completely tested have a red highlight?

Ax2grind stick with it....need people like you around here :)
