TSoG / Ravinale Recruitment Mission
January 03, 2012, 12:47:42 PM
Quote from: Craig Stern[A] recruitment mission in Ravinale whose success will be affected by your reputation among the populace...

What factors do you guys think will contribute towards the Ravinale people joining the resistance? I drew up a quick list...

For Sure:

- Mission Four: Endings (Postive / Negative)

Most Likely:

- Achmed: Helping With Bandits (Neutral / Positive)
- Librarian: Retrieving Books (Negative / Neutral / Postive)

Maybe:

- Dayn: Money Problems (Negative / Neutral / Postive)
- Mahboob/Rayhana/Wadi: Family Issues (M: Negative / Neutral / Postive; R: Neutral; W: Negative / Neutral)
- Halam: Psy Hater (Negative / Neutral)
- Bartender: Property Damage (Negative / Neutral)
- Beggar - Ravinale Market: Cultist Beggar (Negative / Neutral / Postive)
- Mission Five: Defeated D'Kah (Neutral / Positive)

Unknown:

- Beggar - Ravinale Docks: Sleeping Beggar (???)

Any other idea on where "loyality" points could come from?

TSoG / Speculation On The Last Acolyte
November 08, 2011, 08:20:48 PM


Malekahin -> *Unknown* -> Hakim

I was thinking that judging by his clothes, the middle Acolyte seems to be a politician of some sort, which blends nicely with the preacher/judge combo.

Continuing on that note; the Judge seems to look forward and analyze future possiblities, which tailors towards Light-Based Abilities; and because only one option is left; the mystery man would be have Cyro based powers.

What do you guys think though, what occupation or role/affinity does this mystery Acolyte have?

TSoG / Telepathy Imagery?
September 15, 2011, 04:51:19 AM
We all know that Psy can communicate telepathically by being able to read the thoughts of others and transmit their own.

With that, do you then think it is possible for a Telepath to imagine an image or a picture in his/her head and then send it to however he/she is communicating with?

Quote from Newgrounds:

Quote
I got in a fight with some smartass demon who was pissed that I came in his so called house, there isn't even a bathroom for christ sakes. And then to make matters worse I obviously talked back to him because I don't back down to jerks and so he challenges me to a fight. I have no choice but to fight him and he beats living hell out of me. There was absolutely no way for me to run away from him so I just kind of stood there and hoped he would show mercy on me. Nope, he killed me.

Long story short I found no reason to save the game 5 minutes in and it came back to bite me on the ass, this game wasn't worth the load time and the 40 clicks for a decent attribute set. I have a small list of ways you can probably improve on the next game if you actually want to maybe try next time.

1. Make the character more 3d, even after 5 minutes i got tired of looking at my dudes head, lame.

2.Make it so you get around 400 attribute points to begin with, this way you know your a winner and you can kick smartass demons who don't know their place

3.Make it impossible to die. This is pretty important, mostly to people who don't want to start over.

4. Nudity

5. A really big sword, this is always a must in RPGs. Do you like FF7? yea, its because of the bad ass sword. Look into maybe recreating the buster sword.

6. I hate tutorials, and so does everyone else. Incorprate it into the game using some kind of reward system like in Fable.

7. Make all the enemies women and children, this market hasn't been exploited yet so its fresh for new ideas and games.

8.Turn it into a point and click adventure, I love those games!

9. Maybe make it fun? I'm having more fun critiquing this game than actually playing it.

10. Buffalo Chicken Snackers at KFC = Heaven,

In conclusion, you have a lot of work in order to make your game more fun than games like Superman 64. but I think you can do it. Just make sure this time you don't design it using MS paint and don't steal the story from that whole, you know, Star Wars franchise.

Thanks for your time,
Yours Truely,
Mr. Disappointed

Craig's Response:

QuoteI think I've figured out your problem: TRPG2 is substantially more fun if you don't take massive amounts of drugs before playing. If you were playing while sober, you might have noticed that the very first thing on the load game screen is an "AUTOSAVE SLOT." It's kind of hard to miss.

TSoG / Orb Transition From TRPG2 To TSoG
November 20, 2010, 09:56:05 PM
I been wondering this for a while, how did the orbs (which may or not have been in possession of the Hero of TRPG2) get from the places they were in TRPG2 (Orange Orb: Deeper Downs - Yellow Orb: Lake Alto to Orange Orb: Mahboob's Possession - Yellow Orb: Crypt 2). I personally think that the hero either hid them, as he saw their power and didn't want anyone else to have them, or he never found them at all. Forgive me if this as already been talked about, but I am curious.

TSoG Wish List / Save File Options
October 30, 2010, 11:33:04 AM
I was just thinking to myself as I was looking over my saved files for TSoG, don't you think their should be more options with your save files. I mean, why can't we delete and copy files in most other RPGs. This would clear up the amount of save files on one's computer and possibly prevent the player from replaying the entire game when they are faced with a game changing decision. Do you agree with adding a delete and/or copy option to save file menu?

TSoG / Behind the Mask
October 22, 2010, 05:34:27 PM
Now that you can ask Griffin about Cygnus, we have learned that he wears a golden baby mask. Why does he wear it? What do you think is behind the mask?

Well I'm pretty sure it is not a fashion statement but he is trying to hide his face.  I personally think it is something else because as I said their no need to wear a mask if you don't need to hide something and besides why would a regular human hide its face to other people's (even if it is distorted).

Forum Games / The Two Academies
October 15, 2010, 09:48:32 PM
Hello Everyone. This is the newest RP on the forum: The Two Academies or TTA.

Back Story

[spoiler]
See this RP takes place 20 years after Shadow War. Now the first question is probably, which side won? Well both! See what happened was that as soon as the Hero killed Nelis, so much power was released it rewound time itself. It rewound to the time the Hero made his decision on whether to fight the Hero fought for or against the queen. However, the blast was so powerful it broke of the time line and created two separate realities. One time line, where the hero decided to remain loyal to the Shadowlings, while the other time line, is where the hero betrays the Shadowlings. Now you must also say that when the hero defeated Nelis the second time, it should have rewound time back to the choice, but here is the catch, the power released affected the other dimension instead of time. Now only time will tell what will happen to the two dimensions as the power released still lingers within both...

Side Note: Psy Academy was destroyed in the HL (Human's Lose or Dean Dead) dimension but 10 years after the war the Shadowlings rebuilt it and now they send the most powerful Psys in Cera Bella to it (no matter race) for training to become leaders of their armies. While in the SL (Shadowling's Lose or Nelis Dead) dimension Psy Academy is still accepting students (any race) into their halls for training of Psy abilities.

Here is something to help people understand if they don't: http://postimage.org/image/1xb13eah0/
[/spoiler]

Character Story

[spoiler]
Now with creating the character in this RP it is a little different. See you do create a normal character but that character will exist in both dimensions. Now here is the catch and where to have some fun with this, your character can (it doesn't have to) act differently because of the influence of Shadowlings or not, basically it is like creating two characters. You can control them separately and choice to alienate one of the other  

Now rules with the characters are no god moulding or powers. Your powers are set to being in your cape level: Red, Blue, and Black. However, no player is allowed to be a teacher or White Cape because of the amount of power they have and it is unfair to lower Capes. Also unless your character finds out about the other dimension, YOUR CHARACTER HAS NO INIDICATION THAT THE OTHER DIMENISION EXTISTS (I want to stress that point). Also limited character controls, don't do any to radical, and try to be a nice person (to other players) meaning don't kill them randomly. Other than that have fun, explore Psy Academy, read books, interact with NPCs, learn abilities, drink beer and gamble, get a girlfriend/boyfriend, go on trips to the Deeper Downs and Somnus, and skip classes (if you dare!).

The Wandering Shadow
[spoiler]Human's Lose Dimension

Name: The Shadow (he prefers not to tell people his real name, John.)
Race: Human
Class: Psy assasin, Black cape
Affinity: Shadow
Bio: John is the kind of person who would kill someone as soon as look at them. He works as a mercenary. He keeps a condescending, detached air around people. In battle he is ruthless and won't quit until the job is done...
He is an orphan (his parents were killed by Shadowlings) raised by man who trains people particularly to be assasins and mercenaries. This has been rather traumatizing. (Ben was killed when Psy Academy was overthrown)

[/spoiler]

Duskling
[spoiler]Shadowlings Lose:

Name: Frex
Race: Human
Class: Psy Fighter
Affinity: Fire
Skill: Higher than a Blue Cape, but not Black Cape.
Bio: Frex had a good life, for the most of it anyway, because the Shadow War had ended shortly before his sixteenth birthday, thus allowing him to hone his abilities at the Psy Academy in relative peace, making it much easier, but some front-end experience would've helped. He had a loving family which had supported him, and helped him in his studies. With their help, he surpassed the level of Blue Cape, but the Dean of the Academy had decided he was not yet fit to train as a Black Cape. Frex accepted the Dean's decision, but didn't feel he had much more to learn as a Blue Cape and was eager to ascend to the rank of Black Cape.
Equipment: His mind, and an old bow he uses to have fun or for practice.
Skills: Strong Pyro Blast, hardly developed Pyro Hail, and a moderate-leveled Mind Blast.


Humans Lose

Name: Frex
Race: Human
Class: Mercenary
Affinity: Cryo
Bio: Frex's life was miserable, for the most part, with the destruction of the Psy Academy a short time before his sixteenth birthday, he could only go to private, expensive, hidden Psy instructors. Though not much time was spent studying, but, if front-end experience helped, there was plenty of it, what with all the Shadowlings leaving no rock unturned looking for Psys. Shortly after the destruction of the Academy, Frex's family had been slaughtered by Shadowlings in a brutal and merciless fashion which had left them distracted enough to give Frex enough time to get away. With his family gone, Frex's emotions were fading as well, he had become hard, and realized the world for what it really was, a test, a test to see how well one can survive. Using the money he had been given in case his parents died and he was left on his own, Frex had found a private trainer by the name of Senz, who was proficient, and not too expensive. After many months of private tutoring, Frex had nearly perfected his Cryo Blast, his Mind Blast, and had just begun to show signs of being able to use Cryo Cross. After his training, he became a mercenary, and earned a living collecting gold for the destruction of Shadowling encampments, sentry posts, and sometimes some small fortresses. Even with his abilities, he still comes by and trains with Senz.
Equipment: His mind, a crossbow which he uses while sniping, and a dagger for close combat.
Skills: Strong Cryo Blast, strong Mind Blast, and barely developed Cryo Cross.

Name: Bob
Race: Human
Class: Psy Fighter
Affinity: Cyro
Skill: Has the skill of about a blue cape
Bio: Bob was raised far away from the Psy academy, and only learned of its existence recently.

Bob misses his family, and prefers to keep to himself for the most part. He doesn't make too many friends, but he is loyal to the ones he has. Once he gets to know someone, he can be very friendly.

Bio: Bob was raised far away from the Psy academy and Somnus, and only learned of its existence recently, in quite a dramatic fashion. His family was killed by a shadowling a few days after the first psy academy was destroyed. Bob managed to kill the shadowling with his mental powers and his father's knife. More shadowlings arrived, and considered killing him, but in the end decided to keep him alive due to his impressive abilities. As a result of his past experience, Bob is very distrustful, especially of shadowlings. However, he does realize that some are not as bad as others after hearing them debate on killing him. He spends most of his time in thought, analyzing his surroundings and making judgments about people. He doesn't make too many friends, but he is loyal to the ones he has. Bob misses his family very much, but suppresses the emotions to keep himself functional, and to not look weak to the shadowlings. He makes very few friends, if any, but is loyal to the people he considers friends, or respects.
Equipment: His mind, and a really sharp knife
Skills: Mind Blast, shadow resistance, dark shield, knife, stab. Working on shadow blast. Fairly stealthy, but not due to any psy abilities. Despite his limited ability, he is a capable fighter due to having really good survival instinct.

Shadoroq
[spoiler]
Shadowlings Lose Dimension:

Name: Noxus
Race: Shadowling
Class: Psy Fighter of skill comparable to a senior blue cape, but not quite a black cape
Affinity: Dark
Bio: Noxus is a very active and energetic young Shadowling with a taste for combat. He had been in the Shadowling Army since about 15 years after death of Queen Nelis. Though he enjoyed his career as a soldier, the Shadowling Republic had not been actively engaged in any conflict (outside of itself, that is) since the end of the Shadow War. Sick of the lack of opportunity for rank advancement (having been only a first lieutenant for years) and generally bored with life, he decides to seek out the Psy Academy to improve his skill. After all, they were accepting applicants of all races now.
Equipment: military grade weaponry, a set of bouncy balls he can't seem to stop fiddling with.
Skills: Mind blast, shadow blast, basic comprehension of shadow port, spear


Human's Lose Dimension:

Name: Noxus
Race: Shadowling
Class: Tactician
Affinity: Dark
Bio: Noxus is, or rather, was, a very active and energetic young Shadowling with a taste for combat. But that person died a long time ago. After being drafted into the Shadowling Imperial Army at an exceptionally early age just 10 years after the destruction of the Psy Academy, he was exposed to the ruthlessness of war for several years. Because of this he'd already taken to a magenta shade. He found his skill set more in military strategy than actual combat and found himself rising the ranks very quickly, attaining the rank of major in only 10 years. His most recent order was to the Psy Academy. He had little idea why he was needed there, but it was probably something to do with protecting the dean.
Equipment: military grade weaponry, a stress ball which he uses all too often.
Skills: Mind blast, Shadow blast, Feedback

[/spoiler]

Gath
[spoiler]
Shadowlings Lose Dimension:

Name: Ben Archid
Race: Human
Class: Psy Assassin (Black Cape)
Affinity: Shadow
Bio: Ben is one of the few Psy to have an affinity for shadow. He learned about it during one of his many trips to the 'Barracks' in Somnus, one of his favorite locations. He earned his black cape last year, and is looking to graduate this year. He's starting this semester late because he felt he needed some real experience, and Darkling, a friend of his, managed to get him a job with the Helenites.
Equipment: Himself. His mind is his only weapon.
Skills: A weak mind blast and mind shield, powerful shadow blast, and moderatly-powered Feedback. He's been working on Shadowporting in his spare time.


Humans Lose Dimension:

Name: Ben Archid
Race: Human
Class: Psy Fighter (Black Cape)
Affinity: Light
Bio: Ben is one of the best students at the academy, and is already being considered for leadership positions. He's starting the semester late because he was sent to join General Darkeye on a few missions against the spriggats. He enjoys strategic thought of any kind, and cares little about which side he's on. Some consider him a Shadowling Loyalist, and a traitor to the humans, but he has no preference either way.
Equipment: He has too much pride to be caught using anything but his mind.
Skills: A weak mind blast, medium mind shield, powerful light blast, and medium Feedback. He's trying to develop a light bomb, but hasn't succeeded yet.

TSoG / Invisible Box!?!
October 07, 2010, 07:17:37 PM
I found this invisible box in the south-west corner of the westerly building in the Ravinale. I don't know what is it, or why it is their, so here is the forum for people to discuss what they think it is.

Here you can find the image of my character trying to run into the box:http://postimage.org/image/1pgms8b6s/

TSoG Wish List / Character Themed Side-Quests
October 02, 2010, 04:59:55 PM
I don't know whether or not Craig planned this, but it seems that each character has their own problems. By problems, I mean that they have things outside the Resistance and Cult that is still bothering them. For example: Griffin still has problems with his parents. This idea is that over the course of the game, each character will their own problems solved by the Hero. Perhaps, he will get a special bonus afterwards. Some examples of these missions would be:

Griffin: Griffin and his parents aren't really talking to each other, The Hero and Griffin will have to go save Griffin's parents because the Cult abducts them. Once you save them, Griffin will make up with his parents and he will be only focused on the mission.

Rahel: Rahel had some trouble back in Rubat, so when Rahel and The Hero go to Rubat she will confront the guy she was supposed to marry. However, the clan could be mad at Rahel and want to apprehend her. This would not only be a cool mission but you could get closer to Rahel...

Arman: Arman just ran away from the order of the black rose, and we have already dealt with Al'al. It is possible that, Arman first side quest was his Character Themed Side-Quest but anything is possible. 

Set: Set doesn't have a Backbone, so there could be a mission where sets learns to stand up for himself and take a leadership role. This could involve a lot of things as devolping a backbone might aquire a lot of thing. 

Luca: Luca doesn't know much about her past, in one of the later missions Luca could remember what happened (or a fragment of it) and want to go search for it. This mission would probably involve a lot of sprits.

Malis: Malis might need help with her shipments of spices into Rainville until they are attacked by looters and maybe even shadowlings. Her shipments would arrive by boat so it could bring back everyone favourite boat battles?

TSoG Wish List / The Golden Egg
September 19, 2010, 05:11:50 PM
The Golden Egg

Author's Notes:
[spoiler] I made this side quest from the topic Qudssi and Naj. I mentioned a magical chicken so here is he. His name is Buh'baque as suggested by Craig. This side-quest was made for fun and it doesn't really matter if it gets in or not. Now may I present: The Golden Egg [/spoiler]

Main Quest:
[spoiler] Kids these days, no respect for old people[spoiler]
If you go into the Ravinale slums you will find an old man in front of a door to a small shack.

1. Hey you sonny boy, do you think you could help an old man?
a. Sure, What is it? [Sends to 2]
b. I don't have time. [Exits Conversation]

2. Well, I lost my key to my house when I was in the Great Forest a week ago. I have too little money to get a ride there. Do you think you could get it for me?
a. Sure, why not [Sends to 3]
b. What's in it for me? [Sends to 4]
c. Can't help you sorry. [Exits Conversation]

3. Thank you, I will be in your dept forever!

4. Where's your manners sonny boy? You should help me, I'm an old man!

a. Sure, why not [Sends to 3]
b. What do you want again? [Sends to 2]
c. Go rot in a grave, old man [Exits Conversation]

When you go to the Great Forest, in the top right corner you can see a small key hidden behind a bush.

1.  (You see a small bronze key; it is probably the old man's)
a. (Pick it up)
b. (Leave it alone)

When you go back to the old man, a new set of dialogue options open.

1.  Sonny Boy your back, do you have the key or not?
a. Yes, here you go [Sends to 2]
b. (Lie) No I don't [Sends to 4]

2. Thank You, I don't have much money put you can have this as reward.
a. Yes please [Exits Conversation]
b. Oh no thank you, it was my pleasure [Sends to 3]

3. Oh my! I wish that all young people were like you sonny boy!

4. I might not have long to live and I don't to live the rest of it on the street corner!
a. I'll find it [Exits Conversation]

Endings:

4.a: Gives the same dialogue as before.

2.a: Gives you 500 gold

3.a: Gives +1 Personality

The screen then blacks and the old man moves to inside the house. If he is talk to again he says this. All dialogue endings lead to the repeat of the same dialogue

1. Well, if it isn't sonny boy! I am so thankful for getting me back into my house.
a. Your welcome! [Exits Conversation]
b. Is everything all right here? [Sends to 2]

2. Almost everything; except some chicken has roosted in my backyard!

b. Thank for the info. [Exits Conversation]

3. It doesn't really matter to me, sonny boy.
a. [Exits Conversation] [/spoiler]

The Psy Fighter vs. The Chicken
[spoiler]
If you go outside (there is a door near the back of the house) you are in some small garden (with a fence and a small pond). Once you go to the back of the yard you can find a chicken roosting on a box.

1. (It appears to be a regular chicken, sitting in a small nest).
a. (Attack the Chicken) [Sends to 2]
b. (Scan the Chicken) [Sends to 3 if aptitude is 15 or less, Sends to 4 if aptitude 16 or more]
c. (Leave the Chicken alone) [Exits Conversation]

2. (You ruffle the chicken's feather's feathers and it squawks. It looks it is it going to peck you to death)
a. (Defend Yourself) [Exits Conversation]

3. (It seems like a normal chicken. Its thoughts are clearly indicating that it is perfectly content on staying where it is. It doesn't mind your presence)
a. (Attack the Chicken) [Sends to 2]
b. (Leave the Chicken alone) [Exits Conversation]

4. (You scan the chicken and you're amazed. This chicken, while having normal chicken thoughts, has its own psy power. What is even more amazing is it suppressing it. It has also given itself a name: Buh'baque. This chicken doesn't seem like a normal chicken and you wonder whether bothering it is a good idea. You also find a huge energy source almost as great as the chicken's beneath it. You look down and notice some sort of golden egg!)  
a. (Attack the Chicken) [Sends to 2]
b. (Leave the Chicken alone) [Exits Conversation]
c. (Convince Buh'baque to leave) [Only appears if you have a aptitude of 21 or more] [Sends to 5]

5. (You struggle to convince Buh'baque to leave. You implant pictures of cold-weather coming but Buh'baque still doesn't leave. You struggle even harder and implant the picture of an ice storm coming. Suddenly, Buh'baque springs up and flies away.)
a. (Exits Conversation)

Endings:

1.a, 3.b, 4.b: Gives same dialogue as before.

2.a: Sends to Battle 1.A

5.a: The screen blackens and the chicken is gone leaving the golden egg behind.

After Battle 1.A

Buh'baque is on the ground twitching and suddenly, Buh'baque gets back up and flies back to the box (Briefly showing the golden egg). Buh'baque envelops in a black light and the light dissipates. Buh'baque is now black and has black flames spouting from its wing tips. Buh'baque then starts ca-cawing (Audio) and the screen scrolls to the left of you. The screen stops at the fence and four chickens land on the fence. The screen scrolls over to the other side of the backyard, and four more chickens land on that fence. The screen scrolls back to you and you say

1.  This isn't good...
a. [Exits Conversation]

The screen then scrolls back to Buh'baque and he screams: "Buh'baque!" (A chicken call, not his name) (Audio)

This starts battle 1.B

After you finish battle 1.B, you see Buh'baque lying on the ground and he turns white again. He then gets up and flies away.

When you move over to the box you can now click the golden egg.

1. (It appears to be a golden egg, but at a closer inspection it is actually something else. You sense great power coming from it.)
a. (Pick it Up) [Sends to 2]
b. (Leave it alone) [Exits Conversation]

2. (You pick it up and feel and wonderful sensation. You feel as though your body is healthy. You look at your arms and you are astounded. The cuts and brushes from your previous battles are quickly healing and soon nothing is left.)
a. Weird (Exits Conversation)

If you go talk to the man again he says (Note this only happens once):

1. I saw what happened with you, sonny boy, and that chicken. I'm glad I didn't try to get rid of it.
a. It would have torn you apart [Sends to 2]

2. (He smiles) I might be an old man but I still have some fighting spirit in me.
a. Okay, whatever you say [Exits Conversation]

If you talk to him again after that he says:

1. Well, if it isn't sonny boy! I am so thankful for getting me back into my house.
a. Your welcome! [Exits Conversation]
b. Is everything all right here? [Sends to 2]

2. Yep thanks for asking.
a. [Exits Conversation] [/spoiler] [/spoiler]

TSoG Wish List / New Tile Ideas
September 19, 2010, 04:35:04 PM
In this forum you can post some of your own Tile (for Map-Maker) Ideas. Please give a brief description of the tile, if it has any special qualities (I.E: Only flying units can traverse over it, nothing can pass on it). Also, explain why it would be necessary or needed in TSoG. The Top rated tiles will get added to the Formulated Tile Ideas (Which I am asking Ert or KZ to make if this forum become big).

Here are some ideas to get this forum started:

Boat Tiles:

Many people enjoyed the boat battles in TRPG2 (I know I did), so it would be only natural to add them to the tile set. Most people know what they look like what for those that don't, they are wooden tiles that have edge tiles to connect to the water (Un-traversable by non-flying units), a main cabin area (Un-traversable by anything), and some wood in the middle (Traversable by everything). 

Snow and Rock Tiles:

There must be areas in the near future of TSoG that will be in a colder climate. The same goes with Rock/Mountainous areas. The snow tiles would include trees/bushes, paths, ice, and rock adds on to enhance. Rock tiles could have rocks, sand, and snow to enhance the battlefield. The tiles would be like regular tiles (Traversable by everything) expect in the place of trees, rocks, and what not.

Water to Forest Tiles:

The Water tiles only connect to land via sand tiles. It makes it weird when you are trying to do a forest map and want to add water for a little stream and you need to add a sand to water tile to add the water. However with this tile, you can mix water and the forest without having to add in the sand tiles (for a small stream). The tiles would in the sand to water formations and they would be un-traversable by non-flying units.

TSoG / Qudssi and Naj
September 11, 2010, 05:34:18 PM
Craig has introduced two new playable characters: Qudssi and Naj. Here is the fourm where you suggest what they are (Race) and they are going be (Class).

Naj: It sounds like a Shadowling or Spriggat name. Personally I think it is going to be a Shadowling with some sort of different ability: I.E: (Niven). The Spriggat could eitehr be a black or yellow/light spriggat.

Qudssi: I think it is going to be either a Gelf (They can have names) or some sort of Golem. The Gelf having animals and other things. The Golem would be like Flint mixed maybe with Dorgon.
