Usurper Board

Not sure how many other people played Usurper on the x-bit BBS - I know there haven't been many recently. I saw a while back when I logged in that the Sysop decided to call it quits after caller #400,000. From what I gathered when I emailed him about it, I think he just got tired of it. Lately I've ...

On a board where I play advanced mode usurper on both versions .19f and .20d, I have found that there seems to be an odd bug that causes me to drop carrier while fighting the supreme being. I have found that the game will kick me out with the dropped carrier message either before I can even get in a...

Will there stil be \"official\" versions of usurper released after the source goes out? Or are you leaving it alone after this Jakob?

glad to see he announced this on the 7th, and not six days earlier or I wouldn't have been so sure of it really being the good news that I take it to be!

Hello I recently reached level 100 in a game I am playing. I found when I was level 99 (or lower), I could go to dungeon level 100 and fight dungeon monsters. However, now that I am level 100, dungeon level 100 sends me only to the supreme being. Has anyone else noticed this problem? I have never ac...

I've been playing .20d on x-bit.org. The sysop has been pretty good at kickstarting this whenevr this happens (just happened again today). I think it's related to him having set the \"penalty for dropped carrier\" to ON. It just seems that the dropped carrier connections are never timed ou...

I contacted the sysop, he corrected this problem. I assume he did what you suggested or something similar, but I don't know for sure. I also tried logging into that one and imprisoning the offending character (as I happen to be king in that game). I was unable to do that. I find it interesting that ...

Hello I have been playing on a usurper .20d game for a while now, and when I logged on today (jan 22nd), I noticed that the game has not advanced its date for the past couple days. When I read today's news, it says \"Happenings of 01-20-2006\". The BBS seems to have the correct time, AFAIK...

I'm wondering if there is a bug in the Indian wrestling function in the Uman Caves. I have seen before that a low level (less than 25) character has been able to defeat my stronger character (80) in Indian Wrestling, fairly consistently. When I looked at the other character, their strength was about...

Is there any chance of seeing the source code for usurper released to the public? I've heard that Jakob reads this forum occasionally, so I thought I'd offer the idea up here. I personally have some experience with C++ programming and would love to be able to contribute to the progress of this game....

I play on a board running .19d - advanced, and have noticed there are some players that have well over the 500 maximum potions that can be purchased through either a monk or the magic shop. How is this possible? The only time I have been over 500 is when I have found a chest of them in the dungeon -...

Are there any 'special' weapons available for purchase in the weapons store? By 'special', I mean weapons that add to a trait in any way other than just attack. I know that there are many of these that can be found in the dungeon - for example the cobra dagger that adds 100 hitpoints - but I do not ...

That was neat to see, I thank you for the time you put into your answer. If you get your alchemists up to high levels, please let me know. I am still searching for the poisons that I remember of days gone by. I have an alchemist of level 73, who is not dealing out damage the way I remember. Using th...

Thank you Lenny You largely told me what I expected to hear, which actually confuses me a bit more. I had neglected to say that everytime my characters find the wishing well, regardless of how I am playing them, I always have them wish for hitpoints. Now I just need to figure out how to get the pois...

Hello A friend of mine and I both have characters on a usurper team, both which were alchemists. One was a human, the other an elf. When both alchemists were level 50, there was a hp difference between the two of them that was well over 100. Up until level 50, both characters were using Akrappa as t...
