Q. How do I get more turns? A. Every night at roughly 11:10 Eastern time, the game goes into a period called "rollover." At this time the game is closed to players, while it is updated for the new day. When you log back in after rollover, you'll have more turns as well as having your tolerance for caffeine reset. Q. How do I "go to work"? A. You don't. That's just code for "you've played as much as the game allows you to play in one day." If you wait for rollover (see the question just above this one), it will become the next day in Twilight, and you'll have more time to play. Q. How do I "sleep"? A. You don't. That's just code for "you have used up your allotted time for the day." Caffeine may help, if you haven't already had too much of it. Otherwise, if you wait for rollover (see the question two above this one), it will become the next day in Twilight, and you'll have more time to play. Q. What is rollover? Or, why does the game say it's in maintenance? A. Rollover is our term for a time period when we briefly lock the game in order to perform backups, update characters for the next day, and stuff like that. It should only last a few minutes, and then you'll be able to log in again. Q. Why don't I get money from my day job? A. Because you're also not paying for rent, utilities, groceries, and all kinds of other stuff a normal person would pay for. It is assumed the two balance each other out. Q. I can adventure in Porcelain Bay without equipment. Is this a bug?' A. Probably not. There are at least a couple of ways you can get to the Bay without rental gear; one of them doesn't require equipment at all, and should make sense if you think about it for a minute. Q. I'm not regenerating HP/PP the way I think I should. Is this a bug? A. Possibly, but probably not. There are a number of reasons why you may be gaining or losing extra PP. Check all of your skills and effects. If you really think this is a bug, please include all items, skills, and effects when you report it. Q. Who made this game? A. The in-game name is Ryme (#1). You might also want to look at www.quirkz.com the website for Quirkz Media, the company that owns the game. Q. Where is Mick? I can't figure out what to do for that quest. I can't find him. A. The journal entry about Mick is merely a teaser about future content. It lets you know what will be coming in the future, but there's nothing to do for now. If this still isn't clear, click the word "wait" in the journal. Q. I have tried everything with the password at the sewers but nothing worked! I think that there is a bug here ... it HAS to be broken! A. Nope, it's not broken. It's just tricksy. There's more to it than following the simple formula. Q. I just gained a level but I did not get a skill. A. Because the game is still in Beta testing, there's still some missing content. This is part of it. Q. Some items don't have pictures or descriptions. A. Because the game is still in Beta testing, there's still some missing content. This is part of it. Q. I keep losing every fight! What should I do? A. No matter what your strength, there is at least one area designed to match your abilities. Play there until you are tougher and can move to more difficult zones. Gaining levels is the most effective way to get tougher, but consider different combinations of equipment and different combat tactics, too. Q. I am poor... Where can I ask for chips? A. Begging--asking someone to give you money--is not allowed in the forums or in the game. To get more chips, play the game. Earn chips by adventuring and defeating foes, or by selling items.
