You are about a year late, it's 2007 now.

Wow, they should've just called that update "We read BG." It is also now most apparent that Toth is a fucking douche.

The problem with analogies is that they're analogies.

Take the following analogy of how TCP/IP works.

Imagine that there's a Movie studio that wants a New York actor. They hire him and ask him to die cross country, to insure they get the right person they ask for a head shot. The actor gets into a car wreck and is terribly disfigured during the drive. When he arrives the actor doesn't look like his head shot. The Movie studio is upset by this and calls his agent in New York, whom replies that it's not a problem b/c he's sending a clone to Hollywood now.

Is that a fair representation of how TCP/IP works? Yes. Does it make any sense? No.

[Nystul]

THE INTERNET IS A SERIES OF TUBES!!!

[Tordall]

God it would be awesome if it was. I could ask it to send me beer.

[TsingTao]

Ask away, there's lots to choose from.

(for the sake of amusement, I suggest scrolling through every server on that list)

Get your reraise gorgets and hairpins while they're still cheap. Sushi is going to spike temporarily too.

We've gotten Nid/Faf/KB/Khim/Cerb this week, all were still in our time. I saw this coming.

Dumb.

'Temppho' on Phoenix, 'Tempuni' on Unicorn. Quite funny.

Wonder what he/they will do next?

[Epical]

Cerberus doesn't have bad coral prices:

Not that I see how nerfing recipes from Rusty items prevents people from fishing or otherwise obtaining coral? Is it because there's now less incentive for a (group of) RMT to do so?

"Tempcer" is on Cerberus.

I am speculating that the adjusted catch rate in Labyrinth of Onzozo is related to RMT Coral Frags. They could have adjusted rusties, but it seems much more likely to me that they adjusted frags.

We were discussing this on my LS forums, and a member compiled a list. I didn't post it originally because it was long, but since everyone is posting the ones on their server anyway, here goes ...

Alexander: Coraale
Asura: Casun
Bahamut: Corabah
Bismark: Corabis
Caitsith: Tempcai
Carbuncle: Tempcar
Cerberus: Tempcer
Diabolos: Tempdia
Fairy: Tempfai
Fenrir: Corafen
Garuda: Coragar
Gilgamesh: Tempgil
Hades: Temphads
Ifrit: Coraifr
Kujata: Tempkuj
Lakshmi: Coralak
Leviathan: Templev
Midgarsormr: Tempmid
Odin: Coraodi
Pandemonium: Corapan
Pheonix: Temppho
Quetzalcoatl: Tempque
Ragnarok: Corarag
Ramuh: Coraram
Remora: Corarem
Seraph: Coraser
Shiva: Corashi
Siren: (Appears to be no RMT related to the Cora's)
Sylph: Corasyl
Titan: (Appears to be no RMT related to the Cora's)
Unicorn: Tempuni
Valefor: Coraval

I don't know but I think what you are supposed to be noticing is that on each server, someone named "tempxxx" is buying loads of coral. Tempfai on fairy, tempcer on cerberus, tempcar on carbuncle, tempdia on diabalos....see the pattern? they made a mule on every server to buy up coral and make RR pins or some shit I don't know.

Not per se, however most of the zones mentioned are also the primary coral fragment zones that fishbots hang out at.

Edit: I phail at quote boxes. Second attempt GO!

Same thing with Coraxxx. Probably the same RMT group.
