Lol I think it has been like 2 weeks since the last update. Don't mean to be pushy but they could at least tell us if they're almost finished, still have a lot of work, or anything.

I would also like it if they told us where they're heading with the game. I don't think they've answered if they're planning fixing the purity bug in wells, from what I understand that was the intention when they released the wells.

There is no "bug" involved with wells, purity just hasn't been added for them yet.

Who are you trying to fool here? You think no one here can do simple math? You say NOW that:

Etherdrifter wrote:I also, in a later post, clearly admit that up to 100 it is geometric in character, but over 100 it is ALMOST arithmetic. At no point do I claim it is arithmetic.


Implying that you were misunderstood, that your 'almost arithmetic' was never intended to imply that there was no diminishing return. And yet here is what you said:

Etherdrifter wrote:Actually the increase is almost arithmetic, so each point of phlegm is equally useful (within values obtainable by players).


You're making the statement that 'each point of phlegm is equally useful'. Meaning you are denying that there is, in fact, a diminishing return. You then falsified some statistics to support your statement:

Etherdrifter wrote:a titan with 400 stats is doing double damage to walls than a player with 100 stats. Every extra 100 is adding roughly 1/3.


The damage done at 100 is 31 points. Each 100 more phlegm up to 400 is not adding 1/3 of that. 13 points added between 100 and 200 is 30% more than 10. 8 points added between 300 and 400 is 20% less than 10. That's some significant error in your estimate, very rough indeed, and is clearly visible if you had shown the chart you claim to have made. I'm assuming that's why you chose not to.

Etherdrifter wrote:The sin function is also not linear, however we often approximate it as such within a certain range. I suggest, starting from the data values over 100 and less than 500, you do as I do and draw a line of best fit on your graph. You'll notice how remarkably close the linear line is to the actual graph.


I don't know why you're claiming the sine function is often approximated as a line. When is it ever aside from RMS, which makes no sense in this context?

Well, here's the graph, taken only to 500, which is about the highest you'll find on any server anyway. Notice how close the line is NOT to the actual graph, several points off in some cases.

Removed the posts concerning Kyoshox' problem with in-game purchases. Potjeh said earlier he'd look into it

We've given up on Salem and are re-focusing ourselves on Haven & Hearth. Don't expect updates for the next 3 weeks ++ because we intend to start World 7 on HnH in hopes of seeing the Salem population per server enter the single digits.

Oh and we replaced your fully functioning Salem servers with the old HnH servers making the game unplayable now and is the reason why you can expect server instability following the launch of World 7.


Fixed.

Devs stop updating, give no insight into when updates will commence.

Servers seemingly go to **** for no reason.

Devs start to work on HnH, a project they have not touched in years.

This is all too coincidental for me. This is either the death of Salem, or the beginning of something great for it, when and if a different group takes the reigns.
