    When I was a child, I met a guy by the name of Marion Morrison. Cool dude. He used to drink a full water glass of jack with just enough of water for "taste". He taught me a lot. One thing he said was:
    "Trust everyone, but brand yer cattle."

    Another thing he taught me was "A man can brag about the hand he holds - but it's only when he lays it on the table you know the truth."

    So, I generally believe people, but I do require them to show their hand, if they actually have one.

    Show your hand, braggot. I want to see the Key. Any fool can make one with all the Codexs you claim to have.

    You know you're plastered when you start talking to your beer.

    LOL Braggot (spelt "bragawd" where I'm from) is awesome stuff!

    I think you mean braggart matey. Thanks for the laugh though.

    Still, I'm waiting to see what Chilix does too, craft it and hand it in for 10kPED or risk it all on an instance....soo exciting!

    This is pretty uncool. Perhaps you have mistaken this forum for PCF. If you want to have a personal dispute with chilix you should take it to pm.

    I know naverith seems a bit rude and crude, but he has the just of it. This is stopping the story line right now since the golden key isn't crafted. Once it is, who knows what Ark Studios will come up with! :)

    I don't want another nice thread of storyline/contest like the Egg on Caly and such to go down the drain because no one tries anything with the stuff they get. We've had a lot of those over the last 10 years where stories just stopped short because someone found parts of the whole, but never got around to collect the whole thing or piece it together with others.

    It is a substancial amount of money in play on this so I do understand Chilix's reluctance to go forward, but I do agree that it has to happen at some point. That or pass on the puck to someone who wants to try... without being rediculous on pricing.

    My 2 cents.

    Cheers

    -Wolf

    You do realize that the golden door is currently disabled, right? So even if Chilix were to craft a golden key and use it instead of turning it over to Cyrus, he wouldn't be able to do so until the end of the month anyway. And I predict the PP update will be pushed to March anyway because of all the bug fixing MA has had to do on the avatar update.

    So why the rush?

    I think we should schedule a Golden Key crafting event so we can all see the results of the click(s) in real time and be there to congratulate.... or commiserate, depending on the outcome!

    Now that's actually a cool idea! Gathering around the crafter to see what comes out of it :) I'd try to be there if I'm not at work IRL :)

    Good comment + rep

    PS. Sorry about the 0 rep points added... I'm still too new to add rep it seems ;)

    Now that's a lot more clear. You failed the attempt... ouch, very costly. Hopefully the other 2 will succeed.

    Best of Luck and may Lootius grant you the key :)

    Ok, listen very carefully, I will say this ONLY once...Settle down folks.

    Posts have already had to be deleted as you can see. Regardless of how much of a valid point people have there is no need for insulting and profane language. You can get your point across without having to resort to such behaviour.

    Further examples will be deleted and people risk being banned. I'll also warn you all that even if you use nice language, if I can see you deliberately trying to incite other parties and aggravate people, you'll get the same treatment...The BanHammer doesn't discriminate...in fact it has a particular liking for lawyer-types that like to use clever wording to get away with bad behaviour.....so be warned.

    Now, on with the show!

    I say, run the Golden Instance and see what you get out of it! :) 1000 PEDS is nice, but unique items are better :)

    Cheers!

    Gratz! Glad you had the guts to try it! Now, if you want to run it, I'll be happy to help.

    If it was me, I'd take the peds (especially if I'd incurred some significant losses producing the key to begin with) and look at making a second key (if i have the materials required still available) to go run the instance as well.

    Just my 2pec
