This is kind of the problem when players complain about having new stuff added. They see the light orb for houses and they think "What's the problem? Why not just take that and make it work for the entire world!? It's so simple!" and that's not a solution at all. Making the world darker is the simplest part of this entire idea. Many players don't think about the amount of depth and such that would truly need to go into even a "simple" idea to make it decent.

I mean I'm not calling players out for it(at least not in this thread). But it's annoying when players start to get negative about an idea and get their answers from conclusions like that.

I see what you mean there. Maybe my idea wasn't that good at all.
but did I complain? no i was just sharing an Idea!

Like I said simply proposing it is no problem, it's the players that whine and then assume it'd be easy because there's already a piece of furniture that makes the level dark.  

alright!

just wanted to throw this in to the night stalking idea. since its supposed to be geared toward pking why not make it so if you pk somebody at night you get a small portion of there gralets? like 5-10 or a small %. this could be limited to a certain pk area and/or certain nights.

I think a certain pk area at least or not at all, this would discourage pking a lot as people nowadays are so obsessed with keeping their gralats etc. Plus I don't want to be at a disadvantage for being richer than other people, which I'm sure many people can agree with this.

EDIT: My bad I was skimming through and accidently thought you said 5-10%. 5-10 gralats would definitely be more preferable than a small percentage, as even if it's 1%, I'd lose 630 gralats, and people like blueh etc would lose 2k gralats, which as stated before is being at a disadvantage for having more money.  

If there an event in night. :/ everyone will gathering middle of graalcity. If there pkers there...it must be a big trouble

Don't seizure and type.  

I just think it should be more dangerous at night, more baddies and more pking.  

Well, if there an events on night? Graalcity turn pk zone. There big trouble then

I am all for this idea. They should do it for at least a trail period and see how it goes. This might be made easier to do with an in game clock that can be seen on your player status screen. so say 6 am till 559 pm is day light then 6 pm till 559 am is night time if you wish to have an even 12 hour day and 12 hour night. It may be better to start with a larger 10-12hour periods and shorten the night time as needed.

few things to throw in:

1:open season for pkers with a few trade offs-mounts unusable at night-meaning you have to walk every where making things a little more dangerous, while morphed you cannot be hurt by swords and cannot block effectively making you a "saint". ships,air balloons, and lifts do not work at night so restricted travel to the smaller islands you can still unstuck me and get to the main land but you wont be able to go back.

2:make an rps club that's only open at night. make it so players have to beat a certain npc to gain access card to club. players can wager gralats against each other in a game of rps. add a rps win/lose stat to player stats. or just rps against npcs.

3:make some shops closed and a secret ones only open at night. a: "black market" that is unlocked by completing a quest. with new shopping options: A vender with a small set of 1-3 very rare items no longer available (holiday or other) that rotates weekly and at a higher cost than normal. Can trade a hat for a random hat back with different rarities. a vender with randomly rotating rare goods- hats,mounts,morphs. bomb/arrow packs at half the cost. B: thieves guild- a shop with rare goods(knife juggle) can be pkd inside the shop if killed inside the shop you lose 5-10g (its called the thieves guild for a reason)

4:buy a new ability-theft when u walk up to another play you press the theft button and steal 1-5 gralats from them, can only be used at night maybe only in certain areas. make AP stop at 1 when pking when you steal it goes to 0 and when on 0 AP you must pay 10 gralats to respawn. If player has 0 gralats they respawn in graal police station jail and must stay until the next day light period comes around or they can be "bailed" out of jail by another player for 100g. takes 1 hour of non pking or stealing to gain back the 1 AP or 30 mins at a church. while at 0 AP you are labeled a criminal as there should be an opposite of saint and cannot shop,change items,or ride a mount.

5:a night time only tower. when the clock strikes 6 pm and the world map goes dark a path to a hidden tower is opened up and made accessible to all players. At 559 the end of night time the current controlling guilds either A: kicked from the tower leaving it open to be conquered every night or B: the controlling guilds tower time is paused/frozen so no tower time is accumulated while the tower is closed off during the day and will resume at the begging of the next night time period with that guild still controlling it.

6:ghost hunting- same kind of deal as bug catching but with ghosts and maybe some kind of special item you have to get to be able to catch the ghosts. maybe turn them into somebody in dw who's house is locked during the day but open at night. gives set amount of gralats per ghost turned in and maybe get an item after turning in so many ghosts.

7ifferent sets of things at night-baddies,pets,bugs,ect.

fine print-none of these have to be done how i suggest them as they are just that suggestions and are changeable to fit in the world of graal classic.  

terrific idea if this does get implemented this kid should be rewarded heavily.  

me likey  

I havnt read everyones posts but would this meen since it would be 4 or 6 days faster than the real world, does that meen all he holidays come sooner and we have xmas 4 times a year ?  

Forgot about this lol. Wonder if we are any where closer to it being a reality???

And no holidays wouldnt cone faster it would just be like day time for 2 hours then 30mins-1hr of night time. Something like that. LOZ ocarnia of time is a great example of day/night time passage like this.
