Macrocheck

Post by Diamond »

I just got a strange macrocheck...
Well, macrocheck loves me, I even got 2 macrochecks in a period of 5 minutes while I was RPing...
This one, came just before a saving, I answered it after the saving and I didn't get the standart answer "Thank you for answering correctly yadda yadda".
Do I miss something?
Did I enter wrong numbers and didn't have a second chance?
Well, if it is the second I hope it's not a reason to loose skill... Maybe a reason to buy glasses. :D
A man once told Buddha, "I want happiness."
Buddha replied, "First, remove I" That's Ego.
Then remove "want". That's desire.
And now all you're left with is Happiness.

If your answer is incorrect, you should get a message that says so and then you get another macro check gump with a different number. You've got something like 5(?) tries.

I'm not sure what happened in your case, but I wouldn't be too worried. If it came right before saving there's no way for it to drop your skills, as it needs to be up for 5 minutes without and answer to do so, and you need to still be using the skill after those 5 minutes :)

As long as you don't get notified that you failed a MC you should be relatively safe. :)

Thank you all!
I just didn't get the notification that I succeded and got worried.
Now I am sure that macrocheck is trolling me... :lol:

If you didn't get a message that says you entered it successfully I would say a GM probably checked you.

And just now I failed a macrocheck while I wasn't even online... :D
All I got when I logged in was a gump saying that I failed.

The other day I diyed because I got macrochecked while running away from a phase spider...
What's wrong with this script?

GM's can see from logs if you logged out or disconnected during a macrocheck. If that happens, it shouldn't drop your skills.

Well, this time I logged off, went to make a coffee, logged in and saw the gump.
Maybe I got the gump cause I didn't log off in a safe place, so my char stayied online?

The other day I was just running away from the phase spider. :shock:
