Corpses go *poof*

Postby Revenki » Wed Jul 18, 2001 7:35 am

I've had 5 corpses i had the hell pressed out of poof on me at 3w in wd and tonight i was dragging yet another corpse back to wd, had only moved it about 10 rooms from it's original location when mud crashed, when i came back my corpse was nowhere to be found.

Corpse number 6 disappears into the void....

*sigh*

Nods rev.. I posted about this also. It definately looks like when the mud crashes something gets screwed up with the pcorpses or the rot timers on them. Usually when the mud does a couple quick crashes, some corpses go poof. I'm down to 1 now.. grrr Image

Speaking of corpses rotting.... I think I've had 7 pressed up corpses rot on me so far. SEVEN! Two days ago, I even had a cleric do some additional pressing on my last two corpses 3w because I was paranoid... and they rotted last night. Its frustrating, the only thing I can do is smile and nod, saying "It's only a little ptime down the drain, nothing big". *smile* *nod*

Anyway here are some Hyldryn theories to pcorpse disappearance (work in progress).

1) There's a practical joker that while you're still consenting the guy from a grouping, a summon, or whatever, drags and hides a couple of your corpses in rarely visted rooms. (Maybe I should try that)
2) Maybe there's a maximum number of total pcorpses that can be on the mud. Hmmm, I should test this by dying 100 times in a row.

Revenki, according to logs, I don't see anything in regards to corpses decaying in the past three days. Did it happen before this?

Hyldren, here's yours. Let me know if this sounds right, or if presses were lost, or what you think.

Mon Jul 16 19:07:35 2001::corpse of Hyldryn decayed in room 3011.
Tue Jul 17 21:44:55 2001::corpse of Hyldryn decayed in room 3011.
Tue Jul 17 22:21:49 2001::corpse of Hyldryn decayed in room 3011.

That's in the last 3 days. Unlike Revenki who I don't see anything on. Were yours press'd a ton and they just decayed anyways?

Can you pull up a log of Revenki Dieing and compare that to the number of corpses that decayed in the last few days?

Yes pressed a ton, in fact I had Dornax press my corpses some more after the one on monday disappeared.

Also, I saw a startling coincedence... Those corpses on Tuesday decayed 35 minutes apart. My last 2 corpses which I bothered bringing to 3w were from a failed MS run where I died twice in about 30 minutes. Interesting huh?

Once again, i have had 3 corpses 3w decay within last week. After the first one, I was paranoid too. I had jensyth, zazure and dornax preserve the others to eternity and they still rotted. Last night before crash, revenki and kazibblie were dragging there corpses in waterdeep...after crash, no corpse. Seems something is wrong.

Okie Shev, thanks Image

Would -really- suck to lose the one corpse that I have left (unless that one at brimir's from a month ago is still there.. actually it should be considering how much I preserved it.. snicker).
