News - KoL Coldfront news Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:50:55 +0100 http://kol.coldfront.net/index.php/content/view/1856/43/ This month's offering from Mr. Store is a tasty treat for all your familiar friends. The Moveable Feast (thekolwiki/index.php/Moveable_feast), when equipped, not only adds the standard +5 to familiar weight, but also causes your familiar to occasionally do some combat damage. But wait--there's even more! You can feed your familiar a feast from the table, buffing him or her for an additional 10 pounds. The buff lasts for 20 turns, and can only be cast on a familiar once a day, but it can be cast on five different familiars each day. Beware though, that the buff is removed after rollover. Click on the link above for more details on this Thanksgiving (unless you're Canadian) themed offering, or go here (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/vb/showthread.php?t=177790) for the official forum discussion. News - Official Kol Updates Fri, 06 Nov 2009 22:55:39 +0100 http://kol.coldfront.net/index.php/content/view/1855/43/ Halloween festivities have arrived early to the Kingdom this year. Following directly on the heels of Arrrbor Day (thekolwiki/index.php/Arrrbor_Day)--and in the same location as The Arrrboretum (thekolwiki/index.php/The_Arrrboretum)--is The Shivering Timbers (thekolwiki/index.php/The_Shivering_Timbers). I'll not give away any spoilers, other than to say that there's a new outfit to be had, some nifty consumables, and a spooooky item (thekolwiki/index.php/Underworld_trunk) that might just become usable in a few days... For those not afraid of spoilers, the forum discussion thread can be found here (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com:8080/vb/showthread.php?t=177672), and the appropriate Wiki pages are linked above. News - Official Kol Updates Tue, 27 Oct 2009 16:37:18 +0100 http://kol.coldfront.net/index.php/content/view/1854/43/ There's an interesting discussion (http://forums.kingdomofloathing.com/vb/showthread.php?t=177556) afoot in the forums about how long the game is supposed to take to play on a daily basis. Admittedly, there are a bunch of details that I'm going to conveniently gloss over, but any thread that has a post that uses the words Opera and plate of dicks can't be all that bad, can it? Go join in the discussion/blowhardiness today. News - KoL Community News Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:39:27 +0100 http://kol.coldfront.net/index.php/content/view/1853/43/ You hate dolphins. You've always hated dolphins, since the day you entered the sea. The dolphins have always been there, stealing your stuff. Always. You've spent days and nights furiously racking your brain, wondering how to exact revenge upon these dolphins. Now, with the help of a dolphin whistle (thekolwiki/index.php/Dolphin_whistle), sold by Big Brother for a single sand dollar, you can finally pummel these rotten dolphin thieves (thekolwiki/index.php/Rotten_dolphin_thief). You've been waiting for this moment. The next time a dolphin steals your item drop underwater, you'll be ready. These dolphins will not know what hit them. Victory will be complete and final. Failure is no longer an option. News - Official Kol Updates Sun, 25 Oct 2009 22:21:00 +0100
