Stone Hammer disease?

Postby Shaderon » Mon Oct 17, 2005 4:29 pm

What is it with Stone Hammers today? Three of my characters lost them beyond repair, one of them hadn't long been repaired!

No, none of your characters lost hammers.
All of your travelling characters saw somebody else's hammer disintegrate.

It's probably those "hammermen" seen a couple of times.

Ah I see, I was sure that they had hammers before, I must have been wrong. Thanks....

Yea maybe it was the hammermen ;) .. it's quite ghostly hearing about someone elses Hammer disintegrating..

You guys are ridiculous.
It's an error, not a mass destruction of hammers.

I don't care what it is. All i know is all my travelling charys lost their hammers. Considering one of them had just been building a ship I can't really see what he built it with if he didn't have one.

I would guess that the bug was triggered by a hammer, somehow stuck where no hammer should be, rotting out of existance. Probably this means that all never-repaired stone hammers degraded away at exactly that moment. Which might explain some of this.

I think maybe these technical guys don't seem to know the full story. I got the message everyone got then got that bit after...

The Industriallist is probably right.. all never-repaired hammers disintegrate at the same time. One of my chars lost a hammer and she wasn't travelling...

Jur is right about The Industrialist being right :) The hammer visible to
all travellers was a one off issue , where a particular hammer had a corrupt location .

Expect another mass destruction in 2 weeks or so, this time with bone knives.
