Kiffin says, "I do want to end with some context." Elderakk says, "Trust me when I say things are going to pick up drastically." Kiffin points at Elderakk. Ghrif grumbles. Ghrif slings a small black vultite target shield over his shoulder. Haruk nods to Krystic. Ghrif put a blued and gilded vultite longsword in his iron-strapped case. Kiffin says, "He doesn't feed his family with what he does here." Kiffin points at Satyrah. Elderakk says, "Also not sure if ytou saw the event on the bulliten boards. Those sort of things will be done more also. We got a good responce from that." Lauran begins chuckling at Suroth. Kiffin says, "She doesn't feed her family either." Dwil nods to Elderakk. Kiffin says, "I make no money whatsoever from Gemstone." Kiffin says, "Where are here truly for you." Kiffin says, "We are..." Myke asks, "So when do we get to start hazing Satyrah?" Suroth asks, "you don't feed your family?" Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Suroth raises an eyebrow in Satyrah's direction. Myke hums distractedly to himself. Suroth says, "that's horrible" Krystic pokes Suroth in the ribs. Satyrah stares at Myke. Krystic says, "thats as lame as mykes comments" Krystic waves a hand at Suroth, dismissing him indifferently. Myke says, "Hey now" Dwil says, "you may beat him senseless, please" Myke says, "that was harsh.. on Suroth" Dwil nods to Satyrah. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Satyrah thumbs her sword of doom carefully. Kiffin says, "If you believe if Platinum you need to realize the context..." Myke hangs his head. Satyrah stares at Myke. Myke says, "Ack" Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Ekimeniso mutters elanthian-clue. Ekimeniso glances at Kiffin. Kiffin says, "That those who are responsible for, and care so much about Platinum are not your typical CS people." Anathema grins. Kiffin says, "We are volunteers." Krystic nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "You may argue that all you wish." Kiffin says, "But that just drives us off." Kiffin says, "None of us make any money from Plat." Kiffin says, "You want blunt, that is as blunt as it gets." Ghrif shifts his weight. Kimli grins. Kiffin says, "I'm sorry if you wanted blunt" Ekimeniso nods to Dwil. Sootic asks, "What are you sorry about?" Dwil says, "I think we can all handle blunt" Sootic looks rather confused. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Krystic says, "aint been nuttin too bad yet" Rubyjoy nods to Sootic. Krystic grins. Kimli says, "So far it hasn't been negative, why apologize" Myke stares at Dwil. Kimli nods to Krystic. Elderakk asks, "Who has the next question about events if any more are there?" Dwil says, "and I think most of us realize the extent of the work you all put into Plat, and that your volunteers" Dwil raises his hand. Enegue stands up. Suroth raises his hand. Enegue went through a double door. Elderakk nods to Dwil. Dwil says, "um...about the Krolvin again, a couple quick ones" Sootic says, "Be blunt, be honest. Discuss things with us and don't apoligize for it, but at the same time don't threaten us" Sootic chuckles. Elderakk nods to Dwil. Kiffin says, "I do apologize..." Krystic nods to Croaker. Rubyjoy says, "Kiffin, the thing is we are all passionate about this game, but don't all have the same opinions on what is best, we are going to disagree, but all of us know you are passionate about the game, and that's what matters" Kiffin says, "I have, in moments of weakness... made threats." Dwil asks, "each of you GM's own a town for the event correct? And all will be involved?" Krystic nods to Sot. Myke says, "Yeah, you guys seriously rule, and we do appreciate all you do. You make this place worth the hours of movie theatre ushering I put in to stay here." Myke nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "I apologize for them." Lauran gazes heavenward. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Lauran nods to Ghrif. Ghrif gazes heavenward. Ghrif grunts. Lauran points up. Elderakk says, "Ok the way it looks on the event we posted thats the way it looks, but we are all involved in the entire thing if you know what I mean. So yes specific places are placed with someone but nothing really goes forth without all of us discussing it." Dwil nods. Elderakk says, "Btw, I never appologize for squat. Sorry thats just me ;-) We all have different personalities and I got a rough one" Sootic raises his hand. Elderakk chuckles. Ghrif grins. Satyrah chuckles. Suroth looks over at Elderakk and shakes his head. Rubyjoy turns to Elderakk and cheers! Kiffin chuckles. Sylvyrvoice just left. Dwil asks, "one other question, any chance we might actually see Trantik in game?" Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Krystic grins at Elderakk. Dwil says, "I'd love to fight off bandits" Suroth says, "you appologized when you killed me with that nasty thing that feared once" Elderakk says, "He was here" Myke says, "We did" Elderakk smiles. Haruk groans. Dwil wails! Myke says, "You missed it" Myke begins chuckling at Dwil. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Dwil says, "ok, your gettin beat later Elderakk, good story on the boards, but I missed him in person" Dwil grumbles. Kiffin says, "Let me sum up my position then I'm done." Kiffin points at Satyrah. Ekimeniso says, "Kiffin i think you gms need to be more vocal with your feelings about things from time to time like you did here.. We get frustrated bout stuff we cant control so we run our mouths.. things we say that bother you shouldnt just go unanswered" You say, "Is he single? No one answered me." Kiffin points at Elderakk. Elderakk says, "He might not be gone for good. He took a likin to someone." Elderakk chuckles. Kiffin says, "This is your Platinum team." Dwil chuckles. Haruk glances at Rubyjoy. Ekimeniso points at Rubyjoy. You snap your fingers. Ekimeniso snickers. Myke says, "It's me in disguise. I'm Trantik." Kiffin says, "Work with us, and we'll work with you." Rubyjoy nods to Kiffin. Lauran says, "good motto" Margana came through a double door. Suroth raises his hand. Elderakk nods to Suroth. Kiffin says, "We all want this to be a great place." Terring came through a double door. Terring sits down. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Terring nods to Dwil. Terring joins Dwil's group. Kiffin says, "And on that note, I'm passing the floor to Elderakk." Margana joins Dwil's group. Suroth says, "you mentioned player run NPC's...what's the deal on that? I sent in an e-mail to ya Kiffin, didn't hear anything..." Krystic says, "we aint to that yet" Krystic pokes Suroth in the ribs. Suroth scratches his chin. Elderakk says, "What do you mean? Not sure I understand the question." Suroth says, "I didn't know what area that would fall under..." Suroth says, "how is that going to work..." Kiffin says, "I can answer that." Suroth says, "etc." Dwil seems to lose some dexterity. Sharrow says, "Just let Elderakk talk. Save questions till the end" Elderakk nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "You can't be an NPC if you don't get hired." Elderakk says, "ahh I see" Krystic nods to Sharrow. Kiffin says, "As an official roleplayer." Elderakk says, "yes players won't be NPC's" Elderakk nods. Suroth nods. Periam asks, "Is the free trial thing still going on?" Kiffin says, "We will give players the opportunity." Elderakk says, "but they will be able to have parts in everything, such as the council, and other things." Dwil rubs his chin thoughtfully. Kiffin says, "To hire into the position." Dwil raises his hand. Sot raises his hand. Kiffin says, "But there will be a selection process before we allow people have access to the backend commands." Suroth grins. Suroth exclaims, "of course!" Haruk glances at Suroth. Elderakk says, "Also, I strongly suggest that if you all want to add a little bit of RP on your own, to write up your own stories if you wish on the EVENTS bb's as well. As long as it doesn't interfere with the entire event you can make your own stories up, that would be great." Kiffin nods to Elderakk. Elderakk says, "And we may be able to draw into those stories as well somewhat." Myke asks, "Like that gladiatorial thing I mentioned?" Myke peers quizzically at Elderakk. Elderakk nods to Rubyjoy. Elderakk says, "If you have ideas definately send them to all 3 of the GM's" Elderakk nods. Maali just left. Myrliton stretches. Elderakk says, "Well the gladiator games are actually going to be coming, its one of this years events" Myke says, "No no not that" Elderakk says, "but with a twist, which we are discussing" Elderakk chuckles. Myke says, "The SL I was going to write up" Elderakk nods to Myke. Katti raises an eyebrow. Kiffin says, "Yep." Krystic says, "just do it" Krystic nods to Kiffin. Krystic babbles something unintelligible. Myke says, "Ah, ok." Sootic mutters toys. Krystic nods to Myrliton. Myke nods. Krystic stares off into space. Elderakk says, "oh that one" Elderakk chuckles. Myke nods. Myke taps a black chain tattoo. Myke says, "Erm" Myke taps a tattoo of ebon gladiatorial insignia on a circular field of white surrounded by curling black flames. Kiffin says, "Toy and non-toy gladiator games are coming to Platinum." There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Elderakk nods. Rubyjoy says, "Let me guess, that's your event in the dhu gillywack" Rubyjoy hums distractedly to herself. Elderakk grins. Llillith glances at something inside a seedy rat pelt cloak. Dwil begins chuckling at Rubyjoy. Myke says, "Shhhhhh" Myke pokes Rubyjoy in the ribs. Elderakk says, "ehhh cooould beeee.." Krystic grins at Dwil. Elderakk grins. Katti nods. Elderakk asks, "ok who has the next question?" Myrliton just left. Sootic raises his hand. Elderakk nods to Sootic. Sootic nods. Katti vigorously shakes her head. Sootic says, "In the past few months, we've had the krolvin as the main theme for the most part..." Elderakk nods to Sootic. Krystic smiles at Rubyjoy. Sootic says, "I was wondering why other unrelated events get started, but never finished..." Elderakk asks, "Like what?" >look [Moot Hall, Assembly Room] In this large assembly room meetings are convened to deal with the affairs of the town, and the locals hold their religious and social events. There is ample room for benches, long tables and other furnishings befitting special occasions. Sconces for torches, chandeliers holding many candles, and broad windows impart a warm, friendly glow of good fellowship to this space. You also see the Rayvynne disk, the Haruk disk, the Periam disk, a louvered door, a large plaque and a double door. Also in the room: Journeyman Ghrif, Terring who is seated, Margana, Katti who is seated, Ekimeniso who is seated, Lady Llillith who is seated, Lauran, Sootic who is seated, Lady Rayvynne who is seated, Kimli who is seated, Krystic, Journeyman Caretaker who is seated, Lady Anathema who is seated, GameMaster Elderakk, Dagiri who is seated, Lady Rubyjoy who is seated, GameMaster Kiffin, Sot, Lauren who is seated, Myke who is seated, GameMaster Satyrah, Suroth who is seated, Lord Dwil who is seated, Sharrow who is seated, Lord Haruk who is seated, Lord Periam, Lorrilyssa who is seated Obvious exits: none. Lorrilyssa just left. Sootic says, "The crazy stuff down in Solhaven with temporal worms and some cracking voice calling us outlanders" Suroth nods to Sootic. Suroth says, "tha trolls" Elderakk says, "Let me say this. Some invasions, the big troll one we had. And other events like the woman that came and got clothes. Those are individual seperate things that will simply happen at times. That doesn't mean that they will continue." Sootic says, "Like, that was straight out of the twilight zone" Myke asks, "The Wentoph invasion didn't serve a purpose did it?" Myke peers quizzically at Sootic. Suroth nods to Rubyjoy. Sootic says, "And about 20 minutes after we had a krolvin event" Rubyjoy raises her hand. Kiffin asks, "Doesn't everything have to serve an immediate purpose?" Kiffin asks, "Or not?" Caretaker stands up. Dwil says, "honestly, half the time I don't mind invasions not serving a purpose, I enjoy the intense fighting and bit of excitement they bring." Journeyman Caretaker went through a double door. Elderakk says, "Well I can say other GM's have thier own agenda's that are not pure platinum GM's they may come over here and do an event just cause they want to do an event. We encourage that in them." Sootic says, "No, it doesn't. I'm just wondering why we start on like 7 smaller storylines or events instead of focusing that energy to the krol" Krystic says, "no they dont" Rubyjoy asks, "I'm not sure if this is possible, but just a suggestion... Is there anyway we could get merchants to not visit the landing because they are afraid of the krolvin threat?" You say, "I suspect it is sometimes difficult to tell a one-shot event from an arc on occasion, and that's causing the consternation." Rubyjoy nods to you. Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Elderakk nods to you. Suroth nods to you. Kiffin asks, "In real life... do you know what fits into what when it happens?" Myke says, "Honestly, if you look around, the town isn't half as worried about the Krolvin as they probably should be considering just how *big* things are worked up to be" Suroth says, "plus I have a really short attention span" Sootic says, "It just seems kinda disorganized. Here let's talk to a minotaur, and twenty minutes later let's have some alien timetravelers invade solhaven" Krystic says, "nope" Krystic nods to Kiffin. Elderakk says, "exactly and we don't get notified ahead of time when an event is coming. Unless it is a long term event that will effect us in some way." Elderakk begins chuckling at Sootic. Sootic says, "Granted, it was really cool" Elderakk says, "well thats the way it works sometimes honestly. We don't have control over that. We want those Gm's to come in and do events, but they dont announce them every time. I have done many an event on a whim." Sootic says, "Piqued my interest, and then nothing happened with it" There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Sootic nods to Elderakk. Elderakk says, "My suggestion would be to go witht he flow." Sootic chuckles. Elderakk says, "at least for those type events." Rubyjoy says, "Some of the best events are the ones done on a whim" Suroth begins chuckling at Elderakk. Karmen came through a double door. Karmen sits down. Suroth asks, "but how do we know they are those type of events?" Elderakk says, "If you hear nothing, then all of a sudden space alians attack. Don't expect them to be back is what I would say." Elderakk chuckles. Suroth winks at Elderakk. Sootic laughs! Suroth nods. Periam asks, "Why do you have to know?" Karmen raises his hand. Elderakk says, "actually not knowing is more realistic." Suroth asks, "can we have Space Aliens attack?" Suroth raises an eyebrow in Elderakk's direction. Suroth raises an eyebrow in Kiffin's direction. Suroth raises an eyebrow in Satyrah's direction. Elderakk says, "no" Elderakk chuckles. Suroth snaps his fingers. Rubyjoy peers quizzically at Suroth. Krystic nods to Periam. Dwil pokes Suroth in the ribs. Krystic glances at Suroth. Myke asks, "He has three eyebrows?" Krystic says, "shutup" Elderakk says, "Ok another question? I gotta run soon." Rubyjoy says, "Please say no..." Ekimeniso says, "if something happens that really interests people then write a letter to the gms.. if they know its something interesting maybe they can expand on a one time theme" Krystic says, "gah" Sot raises his hand. Myke says, "Suroth's a unibrow.." Myke snickers. Elderakk says, "You know what." Krystic glances at Karmen. Dagiri just kissed Karmen. Karmen blinks. Dagiri babbles something unintelligible. Karmen giggles. Elderakk says, "If you see an event that you REALLY liked, PLEASE let us know on the BB's or in email so we can tell them hey they loved it! And more than likely they will expand on it." Elderakk nods. The powerful look leaves Anathema. Elderakk says, "if you don't say anything we won't know" Lauran just left. Suroth chuckles. Kiffin says, "One of the really great things about Platinum..." Rubyjoy says, "I don't think there are many events we don't like" Suroth says, "echo" Dwil says, "folks here are pretty good about posting on whether or not they liked something" Sot says, "Remember to read COMMMENTs" Elderakk says, "You know what I mean." Elderakk grins. Kiffin says, "And I might get myself in trouble with..." Kiffin says, "Saying that is..." Dwil leans forward. Kiffin says, "Ah nevermind." Kiffin whistles tunelessly to himself. Elderakk grins. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Elderakk pokes Kiffin in the ribs. Suroth says, "sonofa.." Sootic groans. Sootic chuckles. Kiffin says, "Okay..." Periam asks, "We all rock?" Ekimeniso says, "he was gonna say we all got big mouths and we use em alot" Periam ducks his head. Kiffin says, "Seriously..." Elderakk says, "Ok I can take one last question before I turn it over to Kiffin and Satyrah." Dwil says, "you can't do that, not saying after teasing us is a party foul." Myke says, "I rock a bit more than Krystic." Myke nods. Sot raises his hand. Kiffin says, "We can take alot more chances." Elderakk nods to Kiffin. Elderakk says, "definately" Kiffin says, "Then Prime can." Suroth nods to Kiffin. Rubyjoy says, "Much more leeway" Margana just left. Elderakk says, "I can say I hav ebeen here since before the shift. And I can also say that I have never had this much freedom to do things." Kiffin says, "We are trying to use that do our advantage." Suroth says, "ala droppin faenor Claids" Sootic nods to Suroth. Myke says, "I wanted that" Sootic says, "I told her not to give it back" Suroth nods to Sootic. Rubyjoy mutters under her breath. Kiffin says, "Speaking of Claids..." Terring chuckles. Kiffin says, "Nevermind." Kiffin coughs. Sootic says, "Sitting right next to her, not a thing I could do but cry" Myke says, "You cant have mine" Myke glowers darkly at Kiffin. Ghrif grunts. Elderakk says, "And we will make more errors, but go with the flow. i.e. Elderak talking when hes not supposed to" Myke removes a mithril claidhmore from in his black leather duster. Myke just kissed the claidhmore! Myke put a mithril claidhmore in his black leather duster. Suroth nods to Elderakk. Rubyjoy says, "Let's not talk about that, that's was a very hard decision" Sootic grins at Elderakk. Dwil chuckles. Kiffin says, "Ask questions of Elderak." Suroth says, "Elderakk sending in a 70th level undead thing during a Krolvin invasion" Sot says, "I have a question" Rubyjoy begins chuckling at Elderakk. Kiffin says, "Before he has to go." Elderakk waves a veil iron claidhmore around. Suroth nods. Elderakk whistles tunelessly to himself. Sootic points at Sot. Dagiri gasps. Suroth glances at Elderakk. Suroth groans. Sootic says, "He has good questiong" Myke stares at Elderakk. Terring blinks. Sootic says, "Questions" Sootic nods to Elderakk. >l elderakk You see Elderakk Atonas the Giantman Warlord. He appears to be in his 230's, has unkempt, long black hair, green eyes, and tanned skin. He is in good shape. He is wearing a vultite armband, some full plate, a massive axe sling, and a crystal amulet. Dagiri winks at Elderakk. Myke says, "I wonder if I could disarm him.." Dwil begins chuckling at Elderakk. Sootic looks over at Myke and shakes his head. Suroth says, "I have a question about Pitkin..." Rubyjoy says, "I know both you and Kiffin are relatively new GMs and I think we are going to give you some room to make errors" Elderakk snorts at Myke. Suroth asks, "is he still going to be an intergral part of the story line?" Kiffin asks, "Rubyjoy, may I be blunt?" Kiffin says, "I will whisper it if you want." Elderakk says, "Actually were not new" Elderakk grins. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Rubyjoy nods to Kiffin. Elderakk says, "You will have to wait and see Suroth, but I wouldn't count him out" Kiffin says, "Actually Elderak and Satyrah aren't new." Suroth nods to Elderakk. Elderakk nods to Sot. Suroth says, "good" Rubyjoy's jaw drops. Llillith removes a tiger incisor from in her weasel skin carryall. Kiffin says, "They are new to Platinu," Rubyjoy says, "Well nevermind that comment than" Llillith idly picks at a tiger incisor. Rubyjoy whistles tunelessly to herself. Elderakk chuckles. Terring chuckles. Periam says, "No leeway for you. Next." Dagiri grins. Sot says, "Alright I'll ask away. As you plan the krolvin storyline. Will you make it the exact way you plan it? Or will you be giving some leeway in it due to unexpected problems. I say this because in the past quests have changed directions often due to players." Satyrah says, "Mistakes as in we have more freedom here to try things we haven't tried before and we might goof occasionally" Sootic shakes his head at Rubyjoy and clucks his tongue. Sootic mutters worthlessruby. Satyrah says, "Lot of leeway on the story line with Krolvin" Suroth nods to Sootic. Sootic nods to Satyrah. Sot nods. Sootic says, "Have fun with it" Elderakk says, "Its planned. Its already planned out, but we will change where need be." Kiffin says, "The storyline is dependent of the results of the players." Sot says, "I say this because usually most of the time stuff never goes as planned" Satyrah nods to Elderakk. Sot nods to Kiffin. Sot says, "Excellent" Kiffin says, "The planning is flexible." Kiffin says, "We have things planned out." Elderakk says, "And thats whats great about Platinum and the way we run here. If Rubyjoy kills the main character off, we will make a new branch and continue on for example" Elderakk nods to Kiffin. Elderakk says, "exactly" Kiffin says, "But if you surprise me." Kiffin says, "Or Elderak." Kiffin says, "Or Satyrah." Kiffin says, "We'll deal with it." Rubyjoy raises her hand. Satyrah says, "Short of handing out scripts like a play, we can't keep complete control over the way the story line goes." Rubyjoy says, "I try to not kill of main characters" Kiffin says, "And not try to force an unnatural path." Rubyjoy mutters under her breath. Sot nods. Myke says, "I do, though." Elderakk says, "I just used it as an example." Myke raises his hand. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Myke says, "Every now and then I toss a wrench into the gears to make sure the GMs are on their toes." Myke glances at Rubyjoy. Dwil asks, "thats good, so basically our characters can react as they would, and the story will build around our reactions somewhat?" Sootic says, "And one day you shall be smitten by lightening" Sootic nods to Myke. Karmen gasps. Periam smiles at Rubyjoy. Myke says, "Been there, done that" Elderakk says, "I must go folks. I just wanted to thank you all for allowing me to work here and I hope to continue to be an asset to you . And thats about as nice as I will get with you bums Satyrah says, "Main storyline will stay" Myke peers quizzically at Sootic. You wave to Elderakk. Sootic snorts at Elderakk. Krystic says, "myke, stuff it" Suroth laughs! Dagiri pokes Elderakk in the ribs. Krystic says, "please" Dwil says, "take care Elderakk" Ghrif turns towards Elderakk and renders a sharp hand salute. Anathema waves to Elderakk. Suroth waves to Elderakk. Krystic waves to Elderakk. Sootic grins. Terring waves to Elderakk. Sootic says, "Thanks" Rayvynne waves to Elderakk. Sharrow waves to Elderakk. Satyrah says, "Bye Elderakk" Periam bows to Elderakk. Rubyjoy says, "I think it was Aldrek who said at Simucon last year... No matter how much you plan an event, you can never come up with the outcome that we turn it into" Terring nods to Rubyjoy. Elderakk says, "All yours Satyrah and Kiffin, I gotta run." Satyrah nods. Katti waves. Satyrah says, "Exactly" Terring says, "Especoially here in Platinum" Kiffin waves to Elderakk. Elderakk turns towards Kiffin and renders a sharp hand salute. Rubyjoy waves to Elderakk. Elderakk waves. Karmen waves to Elderakk. Elderakk turns towards Satyrah and renders a sharp hand salute. Suroth says, "drop that Veil Iron Claid in my harn" Elderakk just left. Suroth says, "harness..." Ekimeniso bites Suroth! Suroth snaps his fingers. Sootic asks, "In your barn?" Dwil begins chuckling at Sootic. Karmen asks, "Yarn?" Suroth groans. Krystic gazes heavenward. Sootic says, "Sheep boy" Karmen blinks. Karmen blinks. Sootic gives Suroth a little prod between the shoulder blades. Haruk says, "Shush" Dagiri smirks. Rubyjoy laughs! Krystic asks, "are we just blathering here? or are we having a meeting?" Krystic mutters under his breath. Kiffin says, "Let's talk the direction of Platinum and SimuCon." Satyrah asks, "Does anyone have any questions for me?" Suroth nods. Krystic nods to Kiffin. (Dagiri blathers at Krystic.) Ekimeniso raises his hand. Satyrah goes to hide. Krystic thumps Dagiri! Satyrah ducks her head. Rubyjoy grins. Dwil just tickled Satyrah. Dagiri mumbles something that you don't quite catch. You ask, "Nightmare or stun?" Kiffin grins. Rubyjoy nods to Satyrah. Dwil returns to normal color. Krystic says, "stun" Krystic nods to you. Kiffin just tickled Satyrah. Dwil pokes you in the ribs. Rubyjoy says, "Of course I do" You take a tiny sip of your rich dark cocoa, warming your lips and making sure it isn't too hot to drink. Kiffin says, "Satyrah rocks." Ekimeniso asks, "Satyrah do you have access to Krashs supply of tangerine ale and do you take bribes?" Dwil says, "course she does, she is a wizard" Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Krystic gazes heavenward. Ekimeniso glances at Satyrah. Rubyjoy asks, "Are you enjoying it here so far?" Krystic mutters under his breath. Satyrah says, "After Kiffin is done" Satyrah grins. You applaud Satyrah. Katti shifts her weight. Kiffin says, "Lemme talk SimuCon." Rubyjoy nods to Kiffin. Krystic says, "lets try and stay to the topic at hand before another gm has to leave and we learn nothing" Periam grumbles. Katti drools. Dwil nods to Kiffin. Krystic mumbles something that you don't quite catch. Ghrif stares off into space. Kiffin says, "SimuCon there will be two seminars." Kiffin says, "Both presented by me." Kiffin glances at Dwil. Dwil asks, "wha?" Ekimeniso points at Dwil. Ekimeniso says, "he did it" Dwil says, "I'll be there to lau...er applaud you" Kiffin says, "One will focus on the state of Platinum." Katti nods. Katti nods. Kiffin says, "The other will work on the Platinum storyline 2002." Kiffin says, "You all who attend will help create the storyline for the next year." Katti drools. Ghrif grins. Krystic grins at Kiffin. Ghrif asks, "how much it cost?" Rubyjoy says, "We are in trouble then" Ghrif stares off into space. Ghrif says, "Simucon..." Dwil says, "sounds good" Satyrah says, "Exciting story line too" Kiffin says, "Oh, except for Dwil." Krystic rubs Rayvynne gently. Ekimeniso glances at Dagiri. Kiffin says, "He's not allowed to participate." Kiffin coughs. Ghrif chuckles. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Dagiri grins. Karmen just left. Kiffin just tickled Dwil. Karmen just arrived. Periam says, "And you shall be thinking of ways to entertain those of us who will show up the year after." Periam nods. Dwil says, "bah" Myke says, "I wish I could.. now I really feel like I'm missing out yet another year" Myke chuckles. Dwil asks, "thats just not fair! Who else will die all the time during the event?" Katti rubs Myke gently. Terring nods to Suroth. Kiffin says, "Heck, I will even buy during Platinum happy hour." Ghrif throws his head back and howls! Suroth cackles! Dwil exclaims, "woo hoo!" Suroth says, "I am so there" Terring grins. Satyrah grins. Dwil nods to Suroth. Krystic grins at Kiffin. Karmen throws his head back and howls! Kimli glances at Kiffin. Rubyjoy asks, "You do realise how much we drink... right?" Ghrif says, "remember you said that" Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Kimli says, "That's not a good idea" Ghrif nods to Kiffin. Sootic asks, "Does it last for a whole hour?" Dagiri grins at Rubyjoy. Krystic says, "i dont drink" Kimli grins at Kiffin. Krystic stares off into space. Sootic peers quizzically at Kiffin. Kiffin says, "Rubyjoy, I've met you." Kiffin nods. Myke says, "Heck I'd come but I just know i'd be the only sober one" Myke chuckles. Karmen giggles. Myke grumbles. Katti grins. Rubyjoy frowns. Periam asks, "Happy thirty seconds is what you are thinking?" Periam raises an eyebrow in Sootic's direction. Krystic says, "Joys a lightweight" Kiffin grins. Sootic says, "Cause if it does, you might have to take out an equity loan" Krystic whistles tunelessly to himself. Rubyjoy gawks at Krystic. Krystic ducks his head. Krystic giggles. Sootic looks over at Krystic and shakes his head. Dwil says, "thirty seconds is plenty if the shots are all lined up" Krystic winks at Sootic. Kiffin says, "There is a point/" Karmen whines. Terring nods to Dwil. Myke says, "Yeah right, just as soon as you all don't know what's-what I'd be just as bad as the rest of you" Myke snickers. Kiffin says, "I've been to a VegasCon, and SimuCon." You ask, "Isn't Plat Happy Hour from Wednesday to Sunday?" Dwil grins at you. Rubyjoy says, "Back on subject" Ghrif laughs! Karmen nods to you. Rubyjoy coughs. Terring chuckles. Kiffin says, "Both times as a player." Ghrif shifts his weight. Rubyjoy says, "We all know we are all alcholics" Katti grins at you. Kiffin says, "I've barhopped with Dwil." Karmen throws his head back and howls! Dwil throws his head back and howls! Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Ekimeniso rubs Kiffin gently. Krystic says, "you didnt drink with me" Myke says, "We all know the Huntress Clan are.. just look at their last names" Krystic groans at Kiffin. Myke chuckles. Katti says, "have bar will travel" Krystic mutters tootired. Kiffin says, "And crashed with the Vegas crowd." Rubyjoy nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "And had dinner with Krystic and his room mate." Sootic exclaims, "He fell asleep during the movie!" Sootic flails his arms about. Sootic mutters lightweight. Kiffin says, "And Kenstill." Rubyjoy laughs! Krystic nods to Kiffin. Sootic grins. Myke says, "I'd actually look forward to meeting most of you" Kiffin says, "There is a point to this." Krystic says, "hey I did also" Krystic nods to Sootic. Myke says, "Ruby scares me though." Myke cowers away from Rubyjoy! Suroth nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "We are a community." Anathema says, "He even had breakfast with me." Anathema whistles tunelessly to herself. Anathema laughs! Terring chuckles. Terring stands up. Sootic says, "With good reason" Terring waves. Sootic nods to Myke. Terring went through a louvered door. Karmen nods to Myke. Myke nods to Sootic. Rubyjoy says, "I am a scary person" Krystic grins at Sootic. Krystic chuckles. Rubyjoy waggles her fingers mystically at Myke. How nice. Terring came through a louvered door. Terring blushes a glowing shade of red. Terring went through a double door. Kiffin says, "As much as we bicker." Karmen cowers away from Rubyjoy! Karmen whines. Periam says, "Even if some of us are... currently watching the sun rise." Myke says, "I'm shy, untill I get used to ya" Krystic rubs Periam gently. Myke nods to Dwil. Kiffin says, "I don't want to be anywhere else." Dwil nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "Elderak doesn't want to be anywhere else." Krystic says, "me neither" Suroth nods. Suroth says, "and boy do we bicker..." Kiffin says, "Satyrah, I'm thinking, doesn't want to be anywhere else." Dwil snaps his fingers. Suroth grins. Myke says, "Anyone else having "Cheers" flashbacks. Where everybody knows your na-a-me" Satyrah grins. Dwil says, "means she doesn't wanna come to my home and talk about...wizardly things" Dwil glances at Satyrah. Ekimeniso says, "Satyrah wants ot be at my house" Krystic gazes heavenward. Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Ekimeniso winks at Satyrah. Suroth gazes heavenward. Dwil says, "beat ye" Satyrah pokes Ekimeniso in the ribs. Kiffin says, "Heh, Myke, toss me a beer and i'll agree with you." Rubyjoy peers quizzically at Dwil. Dwil pokes Ekimeniso in the ribs. Suroth says, "poor Satyra" Myke says, "I wanna be where the people are, and something-something um the same.." Suroth says, "h" Krystic grins at Kiffin. Rubyjoy says, "She's new, give her a few weeks before you harass her" Satyrah pokes Dwil in the ribs. Suroth nods to Rubyjoy. Sootic grins. Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Kiffin says, "I know I've gone overboard at times." Rubyjoy asks, "Who hasn't?" Ekimeniso says, "She is sylvan and she has booze in her hand... we love her" Sootic raises his hand. Sootic nods to Rubyjoy. Suroth begins chuckling at Ekimeniso. Dwil says, "she is a wizard, thats all I need to know" Kiffin says, "You guys are a tough crowd." Sootic nods to Kiffin. Dwil nods to Kiffin. Dwil says, "we are" Myke says, "I sure am." Myke leans forward and rests his chin in his hand, a thoughtful expression on his face. Kiffin says, "But I wouldn't want to answer to anyone else." Haruk says, "Not to be a downer or anything, but your excluding a lot of people with this conversation, those of us who have never meet any of you guys in person before" Dagiri nods to Haruk. Satyrah says, "Good challenge. People who WANT to roleplay" Kiffin says, "Haruk, I don't mean to at all." Periam just hugged Haruk. Sootic's getting the Stone cold stunner at Simucon." Haruk says, "that was more directed at the people who got us on the topic" Kiffin says, "I'm sorry if that's the message you took away." Haruk rolls his eyes. Haruk says, "dont take it that way, id love to meet you all, but it wont happen for a couple more years" Suroth squints at Haruk. Sootic nods to Haruk. Dwil says, "go rob a gas station, you might make it to St. Louis" Myke says, "Haruk, I'm in the same boat" Suroth says, "I don't know if I want to meet you..." Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Kiffin says, "I guess my point was misinterpreted." Kiffin says, "It doesn't matter if you meet me in person." Periam asks, "So what's the next topic?" Myke says, "I have to settle for empty threats via AIM for the apartment-sharing cronies. They're all going down." Kiffin says, "Or Elderak, or Satyrah." Suroth nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "Anytime we're around, we generally are available to chat." Satyrah nods. Satyrah says, "Also available through email" There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Kiffin nods to Satyrah. Satyrah says, "Plat is different in this respect as well" Sootic asks, "Can I say something on that topic?" Sootic peers quizzically at Kiffin. Haruk says, "im just trying to get the conversation to shift to something more general" Satyrah says, "We can afford to spend time talking to you" Kiffin says, "Yeah." Kiffin nods to Sootic. Rubyjoy whispers to the group, "To the "hive"" Krystic mutters buzzzzzz. Sootic says, "I know you welcome feedback, and like to keep the channels of communication open between players and GMs, which is good." Krystic leans on Rubyjoy. Haruk nods to Sot. Sootic says, "Because we're all learning how to better interact with eachother all the time..." Krystic nods to Dwil. Krystic cowers away from Dwil! Sootic says, "But is there a way to make yourself available without showing up in the park? Don't get me wrong, it's great that you're available, just a bit odd when I walk in and you're sitting there" Sootic chuckles. Dagiri grins. Kiffin asks, "E-mail?" Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Kiffin says, "We can set up a time." Periam leaves Dwil's group. Krystic leans on Rubyjoy. Sootic nods. Kiffin says, "I am going to be blubnt." Sootic says, "That, and asking for people on the net" Sootic chuckles. Dwil says, "Several times if when I've seen a GM online, I've reported to say hello or whatever, and they usually respond" Kiffin says, "Blunt as well." Ekimeniso nods to Kiffin. Sootic says, "Maybe it's just me" Sootic shrugs. Sootic nods to Dwil. Dwil says, "even had nice chats with a few of em doin that" Periam says, "Yes, and now you are on twenty of their "lists"" Kiffin says, "I have been amazed at what I've learned from conversations with people." Periam says, "No wonder you die so much." Periam snickers. Dagiri grins. Kiffin says, "That is a good thing." Sootic nods to Kiffin. Kimli says, "I think he just means not sitting in the park as GM Kiffin" Kimli asks, "Is that close?" Kimli raises an eyebrow in Sootic's direction. Ghrif nods. Sootic nods to Kimli. Kiffin chuckles. Rubyjoy nods to Kimli. Kimli says, "We like available" Sootic says, "Or like earlier, when you asked for Jura on the net" Kimli grins at Kiffin. Kiffin asks, "How many times have I popped in on people?" Rubyjoy says, "Like if we get new players... maybe make an announcement, not come into the park" You say, "It turned out I was innocent." Ghrif says, "dozens" Dagiri scoffs. Ghrif stares off into space. Dwil says, "a few on me" Sootic says, "Oh, the walkabouts are fun. It's on a more personal level, and I can deal with that" Kimli snickers. Krystic gasps. Sootic chuckles. Katti sniffs. Anathema snickers. Lauren just left. Lauren just arrived. Suroth says, "Kiffin never pops in on me" Katti asks, "walkabouts?" Suroth says, "I feel so sad" Kiffin snorts at Suroth. Katti just tickled Dwil. Sootic says, "That's just because you're a tool" Rubyjoy says, "I enjoy when you pop in, but in public places sometimes it hinders roleplay a little" Sootic whistles tunelessly to himself. Ghrif says, "they send sheep fer you Suroth" Kiffin says, "I have logs, Suroth." Suroth chuckles. Karmen says, "tool..." Karmen babbles something unintelligible. Krystic nods to Sootic. Krystic grins. Sootic grins at Suroth. Katti scratches her head. Katti mutters confused. Ghrif says, "you tend to pop in on dead people a lot" Ghrif squints at Kiffin. Ekimeniso says, "thats just to gloat Ghrif" Kiffin says, "Well, erm." Ghrif nods to Ekimeniso. Ghrif chuckles. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Kimli just tickled Katti. Katti giggles. Krystic just tickled Karmen. Krystic stares off into space. Krystic just tickled Katti. Karmen pokes Krystic in the ribs. Krystic grins at Karmen. Suroth blinks at Karmen. Karmen throws his head back and howls! Lauren just left. Karmen glances at Suroth. Dwil says, "I've had Kiffin join in on the dead Dwil insults a few times..." Dwil says, "ok, lots of times" Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Kiffin chuckles. Ghrif chuckles. Rayvynne chuckles. Krystic asks, "are we still talking bout events?" Suroth scratches his chin. Kiffin exclaims, "Hey, you rock!" Krystic gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Llillith asks, "insults?" Krystic grins. Llillith asks, "insults?" Kimli says, "I thought you fixed that diing stuff" Dwil grins. Sootic grins. Kimli glances at Dwil. Kiffin says, "Events." Dwil laughs! Krystic nods to Kiffin. Llillith says, "I have you know....they're making a legend of ye, Dwil" Katti whispers to the group, "well at least I gots help when I dies now" Kimli says, "die.." Krystic says, "we git sidetracked easily" Krystic chuckles. Kimli mutters under her breath. Dwil says, "actually, you all must admit, I'm doin better" Kiffin says, "There are 35 scheduled events in Platinum for the remainder of the year." Ghrif nods to Dwil. Dagiri grins. Ekimeniso says, "Kiffin kinda what Sootic was talking about , maybe you need an alter ego.. I liked having the ongoing confrontations with the fairy" Sootic says, "Have more fun with them, try not to take it personally if someone has a problem with them" Sootic exclaims, "Yah!" Kiffin says, "Unannounced events are not included." Sootic nods to Ekimeniso. Rubyjoy says, "Sort of like what Xiri had" Dwil rubs his chin thoughtfully. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Katti beams happily at Rubyjoy! Dwil says, "good call Eki" Rubyjoy says, "I don't know how to respond to Kiffin, or how I know him..." Dwil says, "you'd make a really neat Orc Kiffin" Anathema ducks her head. Sharrow just left. Ghrif begins chuckling at Dwil. Anathema blinks. Llillith says, "hmm, if you think falling on a spear and piercing your right eye and frontal lobe is better than being kicked in the head by a warhorse....then ayup..yer doing great, Dwil" Krystic nods to Dwil. Krystic nods to Suroth. Dwil just tickled Llillith. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Rubyjoy asks, "Do you kind of understand what we are saying Kiffin?" Dwil says, "be nice, I went all the way to Pinefar for you" Dwil grins at Llillith. Karmen hiccups! Dwil rubs his chin thoughtfully. Anathema asks, "Since they don't get one that isn't going to make our items less special is it? Some Gm's will still work hard on coming up with unique items?" Satyrah grins. Myke says, "Erm, I gotta run soon" Llillith says, "Dwil dear, if I didn't care so much, I wouldn't bother with the digs" Dwil just hugged Llillith. Sootic joins Dwil's group. Dagiri nods. Satyrah says, "I know I have some really cool stuff for an auction" Anathema beams happily at Satyrah! Rubyjoy beams happily at Satyrah! Kiffin says, "That reminds me." Rubyjoy says, "She knows how to make us happy already, how neat" Dwil asks, "pardon me my dear Lady, did you say you were for Auction?" Dwil glances at Satyrah. Kiffin says, "Prime isn't getting an auction this year." Dwil exclaims, "I have 10k!" Karmen beams happily at Satyrah! Kimli says, "A waraxe made of eonake...that's what I dream of" Dwil ducks his head. Sootic throws his head back and howls! Suroth throws his head back and howls! Krystic nods to Kiffin. Krystic grins. Suroth applauds Kiffin. Satyrah snorts at Dwil. Rayvynne cackles! Dwil winks at Satyrah. Suroth says, "that'll show those bast..er.." Ekimeniso asks, "you lost that waraxe Kimli?" Suroth whistles tunelessly to himself. Kimli nods to Ekimeniso. Karmen whines. Myke says, "I'm still waiting on my defender claidh" Myke drools. Krystic glances at Suroth. Ghrif stares at Dwil. Krystic gazes heavenward. Sootic says, "You should auction off custom multi-roomed player homes" Myke says, "My 1x/10x defender claidh.." Rayvynne says, "Napping a wee moment" Rayvynne blushes a delicate shade of pink. Anathema says, "I just wand a storm cloud to follow me getting everyone wet like the tidal pools" Anathema giggles. Krystic just gave Rayvynne a smooch. Ghrif nods to Dwil. Rubyjoy says, "Train in polearms" Rubyjoy nods to Myke. Kiffin says, "Wait for the "Warrior's" Story, Myke." Kiffin smirks. Kimli grins at Anathema. Myke stares at Kiffin. Suroth glances at Kiffin. Katti stands up. Kimli says, "That would be so messy" Katti curtsies. Kimli glances at Anathema. Kimli giggles. (Myke clenches Kiffin's face in his hands.) Llillith says, "aye....I just want a two room hovel in the sewers" Katti says, "fill me in gang" Anathema nods to Kimli. Anathema grins. Katti waves. Myke says, "Dont tease me, I will wet myself." Krystic waves to Katti. Sootic stares off into space. Katti went through a louvered door. Ghrif turns to Dwil and cheers! Suroth exclaims, "tease him!" Katti came through a louvered door. Rubyjoy says, "I don't want to know about that" Katti blushes a florid shade of deep crimson. Myke says, "That claidhmore would.. " Rubyjoy says, "At all" Myke drools. Katti exclaims, "I always do that!" Myke begins to twitch. Katti mutters closet. Ekimeniso says, "Kiffin i personally really liked the items that had a history to them.. all the stuff was great, but having em sung to and getting a story was really nice" Sootic whispers to the group, "i'm rather disturbed now" Myke says, "Dream blade." Katti went through a double door. Llillith licks a tiger incisor. Rubyjoy nods to Ekimeniso. Anathema nods to Ekimeniso. Myke says, "Well anyhow, I beter go" Krystic raises an eyebrow in Sootic's direction. Rubyjoy says, "The more roleplay items, the better" Karmen nods to Ekimeniso. Myke nods to Rubyjoy. Sootic chuckles. Haruk lets out a cheer! Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Anathema nods to Rubyjoy. Haruk says, "Opps" Krystic nods to Sootic. Haruk glances at Myke. Kiffin says, "We will have a full blown auction in Plat." Karmen nods to Rubyjoy. Myke says, "Look at the last Auction" There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Anathema throws her head back and howls! Suroth nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "Prime will not have it." Anathema snickers. Dwil says, "least now we won't have to worry about already knowing what the items do" Myke says, "I chose a flute for Rilee over some awesome armor that'd have made Myke's life alot easier" Myke chuckles. Rubyjoy asks, "Isn't prime going to be pretty upset about that?" Krystic says, "thats ok, they got ebons gate and the jugg" Sootic asks, "Are new folks going to be able to participate and get auction items as well?" Krystic shrugs. Dwil asks, "another question about the auction, is it gonna be only one item per person again?" Kiffin asks, "Is that a definitive statement?" Krystic nods to Myke. Rubyjoy says, "Per account probably" Anathema says, "Make sure you put it all over their boards like the help for youngins here so they can be jealous and maybe join up." Krystic says, "smart choice" Ekimeniso says, "And even tho i like to rub it in whenever I can... lets try to avoid the same kind of problem that occurred with Kylins 6 million silver bundle of acantha" Rubyjoy looks over at Anathema and shakes her head. Rubyjoy pokes Anathema in the ribs. Myke says, "yeah, I was happy to find the fox" Myke nods to Krystic. Krystic bites Anathema! Anathema snaps her fingers. Sootic asks, "Or will the account have to be up for X number of months before they can get an item?" Kiffin says, "oops, I'm about to be blunt." Dwil says, "be blunt" Anathema chuckles. Dwil nods to Kiffin. Kiffin asks, "Any tender ears?" Sootic chuckles. Suroth looks over at Kiffin and shakes his head. Sootic points at Myke. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Dwil points at Myke. Dagiri hums distractedly to himself. Dwil nods to Sootic. Anathema says, "Just Rubyjoys" Dwil grins. Karmen shakes his head. Myke says, "Oh you are both getting the STone Cold stunner" Myke says, "I will own you both." Myke gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Sootic says, "You own nothing" Kiffin says, "I don't give a damn about Prime." Krystic asks, "werent you leaving?" Sootic chuckles. Krystic cocks his head at Myke. Krystic grins at Kiffin. Sootic cackles! Myke bites Krystic! Krystic applauds. Karmen throws his head back and howls! Sootic applauds Kiffin. Dagiri grins. Periam asks, "Erm... shh?" Myke throws his head back and howls! Dwil exclaims, "woo hoo!" Sootic says, "Me neither" Ekimeniso says, "join the club" Suroth nods to Kiffin. Myke exclaims, "Prime sucks!" Sootic exclaims, "To the hounds with it!" The silvery luminescence fades from around Anathema. Dwil exclaims, "hey Kiffin, you rock!" Myke says, "Anyhow. Poof." Rubyjoy says, "I don't either, but I hear whining sometimes when GMs make statements..." Sot says, "If we liked prime we wouldn't be here" Anathema chuckles. Llillith says, "the only Prime I wanna hear about is some juicy rare Prime rib" Sootic nods to Dwil. Rubyjoy says, "Just comes natural" Sootic grins. (Suroth laughs in Primes general direction) (Myke gestures and utters a phrase of magic.) (Myke gestures.) Myke says, "Poof" Myke just left. Kiffin asks, "You want me to be blunt?" Sootic nods to Kiffin. Rubyjoy lets out a cheer! Karmen nods. Ekimeniso nods to Kiffin. Karmen nods. Karmen nods. Suroth nods to Kiffin. Sootic removes an ora-spiked morning star from in his long black cloak. Rayvynne nods. Sootic shows Kiffin his morning star. Ghrif says, "no" Ghrif coughs. Sootic says, "Like that" Sootic put an ora-spiked morning star in his long black cloak. Ghrif says, "err...yes" Rubyjoy says, "Not this time Kiffin, just the last 30x you asked" Rubyjoy whistles tunelessly to herself. Kiffin says, "Being a Platinum GM isn't like any other position." Ekimeniso says, "if you dont quit asking and just be blunt i think i shall throttle you" Sootic nods to Suroth. Dwil asks, "isn't that a bit blunt Eki?" Dwil ducks his head. Ekimeniso bites Dwil! Rayvynne groans. Rubyjoy says, "It's a very tough position I'd assume" Kiffin says, "Many GMs don't want to deal with Platinum." Dagiri says, "heh" Rubyjoy nods to Kiffin. Ghrif says, "weaklings" Sootic says, "Oh yah, a bunch of rp extremists like us" Ghrif stares off into space. Sootic chuckles. Periam says, "Because they are icky poopeyheads." Periam stares off into space. Krystic says, "I really think you should put a time length on gittin into the auction...ive seen instances of items being sold..silvers being sold here lately...i can see people opening accounts just to git items and then letting them go after selling or transfering their item to someone else" Rubyjoy nods to Periam. Ekimeniso says, "they scared of us" Kiffin says, "And the bottom line, is they can't be made to care." Suroth nods to Kiffin. Rayvynne nods to Suroth. Karmen nods to Krystic. Rayvynne gibbers incoherently. Rayvynne nods to Krystic. Rubyjoy says, "So you have to constantly reinforce our needs" Satyrah nods. Dwil asks, "why is it other GM's seem to....hate us?" Kiffin says, "Not me." Ekimeniso says, "lets invade Prime.. kill em all and take their stuff" Karmen says, "because we're better...." Karmen nods to Dwil. Satyrah says, "Not hate" Rubyjoy says, "Because they know I play plat" Dwil says, "even Kylin is overmatched in Prime Eki" You ask, "We're spastically bitter?" Dwil says, "otherwise, I'd say lets go" Satyrah says, "It is more work, more thought needs to go into what we do here" Ghrif grins at Ekimeniso. Ghrif nods. Periam says, "Better, bitter, same thing." Satyrah says, "And it is more time intensive" Suroth nods to Satyrah. Kiffin says, "The point I want to make is you got Elderak" Dwil says, "and of course, we are a picky bunch" Suroth nods to Dwil. Kiffin says, "And you got Satyrah" Krystic says, "thats the main point, alot say spoiled" Satyrah says, "Prime is a bit easier because many of the people there don't care about RP" Krystic grins at Dwil. Krystic says, "most" Kiffin says, "And god forbid you got me." Krystic nods to Satyrah. Krystic chuckles. Krystic cowers away from Kiffin! Llillith says, "oh, I just love that idea...transport the whole kit an kaboodle of us into Prime Landing, set a timer for 5 minutes, let us run amok and then beam us back before the constable gets a hold of Rubyjoy" Sootic grins. Dagiri grins. Satyrah laughs! Sootic nods to Llillith. Suroth begins chuckling at Llillith. Sootic says, "Stellar idea" Dwil beams happily at Llillith! Dwil says, "good call" Rubyjoy grins at Llillith. Dagiri says, "Plat invasion of Prime" Dagiri grins. Rubyjoy says, "I have the constable paid off" Rubyjoy waves her hand in a dismissive gesture. Suroth gazes heavenward. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Krystic says, "cept they'd waste us in two seconds" Krystic gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Llillith says, "not there you don't" Rubyjoy says, "I don't think so" Periam asks, "Have we covered all the topics for the meeting yet, Kiffin?" Kiffin says, "Elderak and Satyrah are truly awesome GMs." Rubyjoy says, "You are all goofy" Suroth nods to Kiffin. Sootic crosses his eyes. Sootic nods to Rubyjoy. Karmen exclaims, "You could give us war machines!" Kiffin says, "They are just as weird as the rest of us." Rubyjoy says, "I've really like what I've seen of Elderakk so far and am very impressed with him" Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Suroth nods. Satyrah grins. Krystic says, "i like Elderakk also" Sootic says, "Even though he hates us all" Suroth says, "I dig Elderakk" Sootic nods to Rubyjoy. Lord Hubris came through a double door. Kiffin says, "I don't claim to be perfect." Dwil nods to Hubris in greeting. Ekimeniso asks, "Kiffin i have a question about the actual game mechanics as far as changes that get made and things.. we keep getting told that monster tweaks have to be the same here as there.. that the two places have to be kept equal as far as game mechanics, but events requiring programming and other work we dont get cause they say it wont "work " here.. how come we gotta put up with Prime monster tweaks but other good stuff leaves us out?" Periam asks, "Hubris is here... motion to commence group hug?" Sootic falls over. Hubris says, "Interesting comment to come in on." Hubris joins Dwil's group. Kiffin says, "In fact, I'd consider myself rather prickly." Sootic grins at Kiffin. Llillith says, "well, we could be outfitted with 600x armor that has 200x spell defenses for the trip" Krystic says, "excellent question" Krystic nods to Ekimeniso. Karmen nods to Llillith. Krystic says, "been wondering that myself for awhile now" Sootic sits up. Bryleah came through a double door. Ekimeniso says, "I am getting tired of getting stuck with Primes crappy changes that dont make sense here" Hubris put a veniom-hilted silvery mithril claidhmore in his leather weapon harness. Seleya came through a double door. Seleya sits down. Rayvynne says, "That, I admit, does irk me" Krystic says, "but then they cant port over Ebons gate" Krystic nods to Ekimeniso. Rayvynne exclaims, "Like the change to bind!" Rayvynne's face turns slightly pale. Rubyjoy says, "We do have a way of filtering out over-powered items, but seriously... we don't really need them" Bryleah says, "amen, Eki" Seleya nods to Dwil. Seleya joins Dwil's group. Rayvynne says, "I can't exactly heal alot for learning, nor do I care to." Rayvynne blushes a delicate shade of pink. Bryleah joins Dwil's group. Ghrif pulls Rayvynne to her feet. Krystic just gave Rayvynne a smooch. Krystic nods to Rayvynne. Ghrif just tried to pull Rayvynne towards him! Kiffin nods to Dagiri. Ghrif stares off into space. Bryleah nods to Rayvynne. Bryleah nods to Rayvynne. Ghrif hums distractedly to himself. Dagiri waves. Rayvynne says, "That bind change hurts a whallop, but I know you can't do anything about it Kiffin." Rayvynne sighs. Dagiri stands up. Dagiri went through a double door. Ekimeniso says, "We get told well just hunt in groups.. works fine for 600 people ingame, but we lucky sometimes to have 10" Bryleah says, "I just resorted to not bind.. it's no longer a practical spell." Rayvynne nods to Ekimeniso. Dwil nods to Ekimeniso. Kiffin says, "I won't asked it I can be blunt, so I'll say we are tied to Prime." Rubyjoy says, "The new multi-opps changes..." Periam says, "Yes, groups are hard to find here." Periam sighs. Sootic says, "I just want more toys" Periam nods to Rubyjoy. Suroth nods to Periam. Suroth nods to Rubyjoy. Dwil says, "I remember when Plat first opened, we had 130 folks in most of the time" Krystic nods to Sootic. Dwil says, "I miss that" Sootic tosses his tall black top hat high into the air. It plummets back down and strikes him squarely on the head, bouncing up into the air once, then rolling over and landing on his head again. Sootic smile as if he planned that all along. Ghrif gawks at Dwil. Suroth says, "it's really gonna suck...the new multi-ops stuff" Periam says, "I got very... nervous when I read about them." Satyrah nods to Dwil. Rubyjoy asks, "I don't see that as a big problem though, how often do hunting areas truely swarm?" Ekimeniso says, "I dont mind being tied to prime as long as we are treated equally" Kiffin says, "Dwil, you know I remember that as well." Rayvynne peers quizzically at Suroth. Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Dwil grins at Kiffin. Bryleah says, "warcats swarm all the time" Rayvynne asks, "Uhm what multi ops stuff?" Sot says, "I have logs with 200ish people" Bryleah gibbers incoherently. Dwil says, "I liked that" Periam says, "Don't ask." Bryleah says, "but that's the only place I know of" Periam grins at Rayvynne. Rubyjoy says, "Which means we could have an up on prime because with the lack of people in a hunting area, it's a lack of gen rate" Krystic says, "yer ds will drop with more than one critter in a room" Krystic nods. Rayvynne's face turns slightly pale. Ghrif says, "bah" Rubyjoy says, "AS too" Dwil nods to Sot. Sootic says, "Figures, invasions, wasps, sheru, golems" Sootic nods to Rubyjoy. Dwil says, "I remember that during peak times as well" Sot says, "I'd like us to have some more people." Bryleah says, "In prime.. even in Liches.. you get 1 lich.. even if there's 10 people." Bryleah chuckles. Dwil says, "I'd say our number one disadvantage in Plat is the population" Bryleah says, "gen rate is worse here" Dwil says, "the changes hurt, yes, but the small population hurts more" Sot nods to Dwil. Periam asks, "I asked before, Kiffin... is the free trial program thing still going on?" Kiffin says, "Periam, it is being evaluated." Rayvynne says, "Servants swarm, thats for certain" Rubyjoy says, "Good question" Rayvynne mutters dead. Bryleah says, "and the roa'ters in varunar.. that still seems silly for here." Sot says, "I'd like us to focus on getting more people here." Dwil says, "I think if we could just get a 150 people in during peak times, maybe 70 or so during slow times, Plat would be a lot different" Kiffin just gave Satyrah a smooch. Rayvynne nods to Sot. Rubyjoy asks, "Will we be evaluated about our opinion on it?" Suroth nods to Dwil. Satyrah just gave Kiffin a smooch. Suroth nods to Sot. Krystic rubs his chin thoughtfully. Ghrif nods to Dwil. Satyrah says, "Got to go all" Krystic waves to Satyrah. Sot says, "I'd almost be satisfied with just 50 Dwil" Rubyjoy waves to Satyrah. Ekimeniso waves to Satyrah. Rayvynne waves to Satyrah. Dwil asks, "where is my smooch!?" Krystic nods to Sot. Satyrah says, "Feel free to holler at me if you want to talk" Krystic says, "aye" Dwil glances at Satyrah. Anathema waves to Satyrah. Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Satyrah glances at Dwil. Ghrif waves to Satyrah. Dwil just hugged Satyrah. Hubris says, "Clerics and healers would be as well." Dwil says, "welcome aboard" Ghrif turns towards Satyrah and renders a sharp hand salute. Hubris nods to Sot. Rubyjoy says, "Nice meeting you" Dwil grins. Satyrah grins. Sootic grins. Ekimeniso just gave Dwil a smooch. Satyrah just hugged Dwil. Ghrif chuckles. Dwil pokes Ekimeniso in the ribs. Dwil grumbles. You wave to Satyrah. Satyrah says, "Nice to meet you all" Krystic's face turns slightly pale. Sootic laughs! Satyrah waves. Sootic waves to Satyrah. Kimli waves to Satyrah. Satyrah gestures and a shaft of scintillating light from somewhere above pierces the ceiling and engulfs her. When the light recedes Satyrah is no longer there. Dwil exclaims, "I'm gonna have to go die after this meeting, to clean off your germs!" Dwil squints at Ekimeniso. Ghrif laughs! Bryleah begins chuckling at Dwil. Ekimeniso says, "step outside.. I help ya with that too" Anathema asks, "Why wait?" Ekimeniso nods. Seleya chuckles. Dwil grins. Sot asks, "I know prime is linked to plat but maybe that is why we don't have that many people?" Ekimeniso nods to Sot. Krystic says, "good point" Krystic nods to Sot. Kiffin says, "I have to ask..." Rayvynne says, "yup" Kiffin says, "After so many time asking tonight..." Krystic says, "you may" Dwil says, "again, our population is the biggest drawback to Plat" Ghrif leans forward. Krystic nods to Kiffin. You say, "Yes, you can be blunt." Kiffin says, "Do you want me to be blunt..." Suroth exclaims, "Be Blunt!" Rayvynne exclaims, "Yes be clunt!" Dwil says, "I've seen folks come and go because there aren't enough folks" Ghrif says, "be blunt" Rayvynne exclaims, "er blunt too!" Rayvynne flails her arms about. Krystic grins at Rayvynne. Ghrif says, "clunt too" Ekimeniso exclaims, "quit asking!" Suroth chuckles. Ghrif stares off into space. Ekimeniso exclaims, "just do it!" Hubris says, "I always prefer honesty." Dwil says, "we can handle it" Hubris says, "Period." Bryleah says, "I think the primary reason people don't come is the cost.. and the fact they have to start with nothing." Sootic says, "Indeed" Sootic nods to Hubris. Dwil says, "look at Eki, the poster child for Nike" Ghrif nods to Bryleah. Dwil coughs. Krystic just tickled Dwil. Rubyjoy says, "Also they have to give up there old characters" Sootic pokes Dwil in the ribs. Bryleah says, "People in prime are spoiled with 3-5 accounts." Rubyjoy says, "It's not easy to start over" Dwil nods to Rubyjoy. Bryleah chuckles. Suroth nods to Rubyjoy. Karmen nods. Bryleah nods to Rubyjoy. Suroth says, "that it isn't" Krystic says, "its not that bad" Krystic grins. Rayvynne says, "Actually, I've gotten to 'fix' Rayvynne here" Rayvynne chuckles. * Raefril returns home from a hard day of adventuring. Krystic nods to Rayvynne. Bryleah leans on Rayvynne. Ghrif stares off into space. Dwil grins at Rayvynne. Sot says, "We'd need some radical things done to plat to attract attention here." Periam says, "Yeah it is. It's not starting over that's tricky." Periam nods. Rubyjoy says, "Well of course all of us could start over" Rayvynne says, "This incarnation is much better." Rubyjoy says, "We've all done it" Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Bryleah says, "Everything I learned in 6 years is standing right here." Bryleah nods to Rayvynne. Dwil says, "seriously though, I can remember several folks who have told me there just aren't enough people here. They get bored and lonely" Ghrif grins. Kiffin says, "Look around." Krystic gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Ghrif gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Dwil says, "its hard coming from 1000 folks to 30 or 40" Sootic surveys the area. Suroth nods to Dwil. Suroth says, "I concur...more folks would be better" Kiffin says, "Look at everyone to the left and right of you." Rayvynne says, "I have heard that a lot." Krystic says, "its super nice" Periam exclaims, "Dwil is not people, Kiffin. We want people! We want people!" Periam ducks his head. Krystic grins at Dwil. Ekimeniso says, "I hear more complaints about not being able to overhunt as much and as easy as they could in prime from alot of new players" Ghrif says, "20 or 30" Suroth says, "just from the sittin in the park by yourself perspective" Rayvynne says, "That it's too empty." Dwil says, "bah" Ghrif nods to Dwil. Bryleah says, "I sort of like the quiet, Dwil.. would like to see the population double though." Anathema glances at Rubyjoy. Kiffin says, "Look inside yourself." Anathema glances at Krystic. Krystic nods to Bryleah. Dwil nods to Bryleah. Krystic grins at Anathema. Haruk groans. Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Hubris frowns. Krystic gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Rubyjoy grins at Krystic. Dwil says, "I don't want a lot, like I said, maybe 150 during peak times" (Karmen opens his mouth and attempts to see down his throat.) Kiffin says, "And think how ist is for a truly new person to our lands." Suroth scratches his chin. Kiffin says, "This isn't the fault of you plaers." Rayvynne says, "It was wonderful for me." Suroth nods to Kiffin. Ghrif says, "and me" Rayvynne shrugs. Dwil says, "its hard" Bryleah asks, "Like her?" Suroth says, "I had a blast" Krystic asks, "by truly do you mean new to gemstone..or new to plat?" Bryleah points at Seleya. Kiffin says, "This is more my fault than I can imagine." Rayvynne says, "Everyone was fantastic to me." Seleya blushes a florid shade of deep crimson. Krystic scratches his head. Seleya fidgets. Karmen says, "If their good rpers then they'll be fine..." Krystic nods to Karmen. Krystic says, "yup" Dwil says, "plain and simple, its a challenge." Kiffin says, "I feel I have failed you all." Rubyjoy nods to Karmen. Suroth blinks at Kiffin. Anathema waves a hand at Kiffin, dismissing him indifferently. Sootic says, "And you got no welcome compared to what they gave a year and a half ago" Bryleah says, "Kiffin.." Sootic nods to Rayvynne. Dwil scowls at Kiffin. Periam says, "Stop saying that." Dwil says, "have not" Dwil grumbles. Bryleah says, "That's not true." Rubyjoy asks, "Kiffin, didn't we talk about this?" Anathema nods to Rubyjoy. Krystic says, "i got a great welcome" Krystic shrugs. Bryleah says, "The failure happened before you ever got here." Suroth scratches his chin. Sootic says, "Matt, just lighten up a bit. Try things out, see what works, have fun with it." Suroth says, "Croaker gave me 100,000 silvers" Katti came through a double door. Katti sits down. Ghrif chuckles. Rubyjoy says, "You don't have the power to fail us all, because platinum is made up of the people who play it, no one person has that much power" Katti joins Dwil's group. Bryleah says, "Fixing it will be a challenge, this is true. And it won't happen immediately." Ekimeniso says, "Kiffin you cant make people want to come here... to many people these days are looking for the hack and slash aspect of games and dont give a rats arse about roleplaying" Periam says, "Croaker never gave me 100,000 silver." Kiffin says, "I'm a hard case." Sootic says, "It's when we start taking things all seriously that problems really arise" Suroth says, "you're not a warrior" Suroth nods to Periam. Rubyjoy says, "You need confidence" Kiffin says, "I take everything personally." Rayvynne says, "I swear I had about 15 raven items inside a week." Rayvynne chuckles. Krystic groans at Kiffin. Rayvynne leans on Krystic. Sootic says, "Try and work on that" Sootic grins at Kiffin. Krystic grins at Rayvynne. Krystic nods. Krystic chuckles. Dwil says, "that you do" Rayvynne taps a pair of soft leather boots trimmed with raven feathers. Krystic just gave Rayvynne a smooch. Anathema chuckles. Bryleah says, "consider yerself licked." Krystic beams happily at Rayvynne! Bryleah nods to Kiffin. Bryleah says, "since I can't lick ya" Krystic just hugged Rayvynne. Krystic grins. Sootic says, "From the beginning of time, players have demanded the world of GMs" Ghrif chuckles. Rubyjoy says, "People will get mad at you, it doesn't mean we think you failed us" Dwil says, "I remember when I first met Kiffin/Matt, I called him short....I felt horrible. I thought he was going to throttle me" Krystic says, "he is short" Sootic says, "You just get to decide how much of it to give" Krystic grins at Dwil. Krystic ducks his head. (Bryleah throttles Dwil.) Kiffin chuckles. Bryleah nods. Llillith says, "well, Croaker may have given you 100K, Suroth.....but I gave you something even more valuable...a reputation" Dwil just tickled Bryleah. Krystic winks at Kiffin. Bryleah just gave Dwil a smooch. Rubyjoy says, "I personally don't want to make a post on the boards and be afraid because I think you will quit when I have a valid concern in my mind" Llillith mutters pink. Ghrif grins. Suroth groans at Llillith. Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Suroth shows Llillith his engraved button. Karmen nods to Rubyjoy. Kiffin says, "Although I am passionate, at the same time I am not." Krystic says, "I think Matt is past that" Rubyjoy says, "It's not fair to us" Krystic says, "I hope" Bryleah says, "I don't blame you. Believe me." Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Bryleah says, "Put it this way.. they don't want me at Simucon." Bryleah chuckles. Kiffin says, "Joy, you know I don't get paid." Bryleah says, "I'd get thrown out." Rubyjoy says, "I know you don't" Rubyjoy says, "And I know you are here because you want to be" Kiffin says, "Whatever I say about why I do this.." Ekimeniso says, "i have to admit, i saw a recent article about online games and i saw Gemstone and that Cyber thing Simu does mentioned and i got upset because Plat wasnt mentioned.. just about every game the article talked about wasnt geared toward RP. just killing stuff" Kiffin says, "Is my mood." Kiffin says, "And I am moody." Rubyjoy chuckles. Rubyjoy mutters pms. Kiffin says, "I apologize to you all for that." Krystic cowers away from Rubyjoy! Rubyjoy ducks slightly and covers her head with her arms. Krystic grins at Kiffin. Rubyjoy exclaims, "Joke!" Bryleah exclaims, "Caffeine!" Karmen grins at Dwil. Rayvynne rubs Kiffin gently. Sootic says, "Here, I'll go pinch her for you" Sootic nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "Most of you have had dealings with Rhett." Kimli rubs her chin thoughtfully. Kimli nods. Rubyjoy says, "The reason it upsets me is because I do like you" Dwil says, "Kiffin, no one doubts your dedication. Especially not those of us who know your characters here. Many of the concerns brought to you on the boards are the same ones we had before you were Guru." Krystic says, "pansy rogue" Krystic nods to Kiffin. Krystic whistles tunelessly to himself. Krystic ducks his head. Llillith says, "I say if Matt says he sorry for being himself one more time, we coat him in honey and drag him thru the ant tunnels" Kiffin just tickled Llillith. Ekimeniso asks, "Kiffin our best draw is our roleplay.. is there any way to promote that in Simus advertising.. that Palt exists for Rpers?" Karmen says, "I don't think that would be ver nice" Bryleah says, "I know where to buy ants." Rubyjoy says, "You just have to know that when people are passionate about the same things, opinions will vary" Bryleah nods. Kiffin says, "There is a serious side to this, however." Kiffin says, "Which is I did almost quit." A pained expression crosses Rayvynne's face. Bryleah frowns. Krystic squints at Kiffin. Rayvynne just tried to pull Kiffin towards her! Karmen says, "If people are looking around to kill stuff they can find it..." Rayvynne exclaims, "Don't leave us!" Sootic says, "Past tense" Bryleah says, "Not allowed. Nope nope nope." Krystic nods to Sootic. Rubyjoy says, "Let him finish with why" Sootic chuckles. Kiffin says, "My personal reasons, some of you know them, but I am not going to quit." Kiffin says, "But I did come close." Kiffin says, "And that did effect you all." Hubris asks, "Personal reasons that have nothing to do with the game?" Kiffin says, "And I am sorry about that." Bryleah says, "Admittedly I was gone for the last few months.. but what I have heard about you while I was away was positive... part of what influenced me to return." Karmen says, "That's because we like you" Kiffin says, "No Jay, it's because my grandmother was dying." Rubyjoy says, "No need to apologise" A pained expression crosses Rayvynne's face. Hubris says, "Sorry to hear it Matt." Dwil cringes. Rayvynne rubs Kiffin gently. Krystic mumbles something that you don't quite catch. Dwil rubs Kiffin gently. Krystic sighs. Bryleah rubs Kiffin gently. Dwil says, "thats rough" Rubyjoy rubs Kiffin gently. Suroth sighs. Krystic says, "yesterday was a year ago to the day my grandma died, I feel ya" Krystic just hugged Kiffin. Suroth says, "you should feel no guilt for that at all matt" Rubyjoy just tried to pull Krystic towards her! Suroth says, "I don't think ANYONE could fault you for it" Krystic smiles at Rubyjoy. Bryleah says, "yeah.. my mom just died a year ago" Krystic just gave Rubyjoy a smooch. Bryleah frowns. Krystic rubs Bryleah gently. Dwil says, "my Grams just got put into a nursing home." Rayvynne rubs Bryleah gently. Dwil rubs Bryleah gently. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Krystic rubs Dwil gently. Dwil says, "I'm sorry." Bryleah says, "and gramma the month before" Dwil glances at Bryleah. Krystic groans. Dwil says, "that is really rough" Rubyjoy says, "Of course you will put your priorities in order every once and awhile, and something as sad as that will do that to a person" Dwil just hugged Bryleah. Kiffin says, "I don't mean to make that an issue." Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Rayvynne rubs Bryleah gently. Bryleah just hugged Dwil. Krystic says, "yes it will" Rubyjoy says, "Heck, Adam got a job, and didn't want to play gemstone for awhile" Krystic says, "we know, but what we are saying is we all understand" Sootic raises his fist defiantly. Rubyjoy says, "And that's extremely minimal" Dwil says, "you know us Kiffin, mention something and off we go...." Krystic nods to Kiffin. Kiffin says, "But its amazing how important this place is." Sootic nods to Kiffin. Zyphine came through a double door. Krystic says, "helped me survive a divorce" Krystic chuckles. Krystic gazes in wonder at his surroundings. Bryleah says, "I think it's safe to say all of us are passionate about Plat." Zyphine sits down. Rubyjoy just tried to pull Krystic towards her! Kiffin says, "And how important it becomes to have context." Krystic grins at Rubyjoy. Sootic says, "It's a great place that we can get together, but don't put it before yourself" Karmen bites Zyphine! Krystic says, "meeting people like Joy and John and Adam" Krystic chuckles. Thenjhar came through a double door. Krystic just hugged Rubyjoy. Kiffin nods to Ekimeniso. Krystic just hugged Sootic. Karmen whines. Rubyjoy just hugged Krystic. Sootic just hugged Krystic. Karmen asks, "what about me?" Sootic grins. Karmen giggles. Krystic just hugged Karmen. Kiffin says, "I am prickly." Zyphine put some cactacae spine in her blue lace cloak. Krystic nods to Karmen. Sootic says, "You haven't visited us yet" Sootic nods to Karmen. Kiffin says, "I take things hard." Zyphine put a basket-hilted imflass longsword in her blue lace cloak. Krystic begins chuckling at Sootic. Bryleah asks, "As cuddly and snuggly as a porcupine with shingles?" Kiffin says, "I do not react well to criticism." Dwil says, "ooh, while I have everyone here, I just wanted to say I missed all of you so much during my break. It is amazing how important this place is. I knew I missed it, but didn't know how much till I found you all again." Dwil whistles tunelessly to himself. Bryleah glances at Kiffin. Sootic mutters meeooow. Kiffin says, "But I love Platinu,." Bryleah grins slowly. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Zyphine just hugged Dwil. Krystic grins at Sootic. Krystic whistles tunelessly to himself. Krystic sniffs. Suroth says, "I missed you too Dwil" Suroth sniffs. Krystic coughs. Kiffin says, "I hope you all keep that in mind." Dwil says, "bah" Suroth just hugged Dwil. Suroth breaks out in a silly grin. Ekimeniso asks, "you were gone?" Rayvynne says, "I felt the same way when I was gone" Ekimeniso glances at Dwil. Sootic nods to Kiffin. Dwil just hugged Zyphine. Bryleah says, "I think I was away while you were, Dwil." Katti begins chuckling at Ekimeniso. Krystic rubs Rayvynne gently. Dwil exclaims, "ok, thats what I get for gettin mushy!" Dwil sticks out his tongue. Kimli says, "Me too.." Rubyjoy says, "I don't think many people take well to criticism" Sootic says, "And hopefully, we can work on getting you a tough skin" Rayvynne says, "I was really upset about the Maerinoc thing, but in the end I had to come back..." Kimli says, "It's good to be back" Kimli nods to Rayvynne. Krystic says, "and we're glad yer back" Krystic smiles at Rayvynne. Krystic nods. Karmen just tickled Kimli. Rayvynne blushes a delicate shade of pink. Kiffin says, "Yeah." Zyphine sniffs. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Bryleah asks, "I take it I don't wanna know what Maerinoc thing?" Sootic says, "Redux for complaining, as it were" Krystic nods to Bryleah. Sootic looks over at Bryleah and shakes his head. Ekimeniso nods to Bryleah. Kiffin says, "You know, we can make this a really cool place." Rubyjoy says, "A lot of people won't look at where people are comming from when they criticize, and just get defensive" Bryleah groans. Karmen nods to Kiffin. Rayvynne says, "And I'm really sorry about that Kiffin, because I kinda screwed you over by leaving." Dwil nods to Kiffin. Rayvynne blushes a delicate shade of pink. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Dwil says, "ayup" Bryleah says, "someone can tell me in ims later." Krystic just tickled Rayvynne. Sootic says, "Read the boards, should be about a thousand messages" Sootic chuckles. Krystic says, "I think group hugs are about to break out" Kimli asks, "want to know what I learned while I was gone?" Krystic chuckles. Bryleah says, "Mine dont go back that far." Kimli nods to Krystic. Ekimeniso asks, "to read?" Dwil glances at Krystic. Dwil just hugged Krystic. Ekimeniso peers quizzically at Kimli. Dwil ducks his head. Sootic nods to Ekimeniso. Rubyjoy looks over at Kimli and shakes her head. Rubyjoy ducks her head. Sootic says, "Actually, yes" Krystic asks, "how to set the clock on yer vcr?" Kiffin says, "Okay. Events" Krystic grins at Kimli. Krystic ducks his head. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Krystic grins. Bryleah begins chuckling at Krystic. Dwil nods to Kiffin. Krystic just gave Kimli a smooch. Krystic giggles. Kimli says, "I figured out how to have fun again and that you add the special stuff but it's me that makes my fun" Llillith says, "now, if this town would just get a decent cheese merchant, I would be in heaven" Ekimeniso just gave Kimli a smooch. Dwil says, "back on track" Haruk exclaims, "Leave poor Kimli alone!" Haruk just tried to pull Kimli towards him! Kiffin says, "There will be six Krolvin events." Kimli shrugs. Dwil just gave Kimli a smooch. Kimli just gave Kiffin a smooch. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Anathema says, "They don't need events, give us events" Bryleah nods to Kiffin. Anathema nods. Suroth asks, "was this afternoon a Krolvin event?" Kiffin says, "There will be a platinum auction and gladiator games." Karmen throws his head back and howls! Kiffin says, "Prime is not getting an auction." Kimli just gave Dwil a smooch. Rayvynne beams happily at Kiffin! Bryleah asks, "Umm.. like.. whenabouts will said auction be?" Kimli leans on Dwil. Kimli snickers. Bryleah asks, "and will it be token and silver?" Ralley came through a double door. Kiffin asks, "June, July?" Ralley smiles. Krystic says, "right around simucon i think" Ralley sits down. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Rubyjoy asks, "That soon?" Krystic nods to Rubyjoy. Krystic groans. Rubyjoy asks, "That soon after the dhu gillywack?" Bryleah says, "Okay.. cause I wanted to know to have silvers." Bryleah chuckles. Rubyjoy groans. Periam asks, "Any more details on the... what did you call it? Roleplayers something thingy?" Bryleah says, "Okay.. can I ask this Kiffin..." Rayvynne says, "Thats what I was thinking" Rayvynne chuckles. Kiffin says, "Elven nations will open in Platinum." Katti just left. Rayvynne lets out a cheer! Katti just arrived. Haruk says, "This summer is gonna kick ass" Haruk coughs. Hubris asks, "Will it be silvers or tokens for the auction?" Sot says, "I think we're gonna get bombarded with a lot of stuff come elven nations" Bryleah asks, "are we allowed to consolidate our characters accounts to bid?" Katti says, "ouch" Katti sniffs. Kiffin says, "Ebons Gate will open in Platinum." Katti joins Dwil's group. Llillith says, "I think a neat twist to the glad games would be like the ROman games.....put players in with critters.....each level gets tougher....would be different and allow folks to see different tactics in action too" There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Anathema asks, "Guilds soon?" Kiffin says, "Guilds will open as one event." Kiffin nods to Anathema. Anathema nods to Llillith. Rayvynne grins at Llillith. Ekimeniso says, "Kiffin about guilds..." Sootic says, "I vote that rangers should not get partial redux" Sootic whistles tunelessly to himself. Karmen says, "What guilds? Karmen go read boards..." Ekimeniso asks, "are we talking guilds like warriors and rogues or just profession specific buildings?" Krystic nods to Sootic. Llillith says, "I'll bet on anything that faces Dwil" Ralley begins chuckling at Sootic. Haruk says, "Its just a test Kiffin, we're seening how well you can multi-task by answering a slew of totally different questions" Haruk rolls his eyes. Rayvynne asks, "Empaths are finally getting a guild, yes?" Bryleah chuckles. Rayvynne raises an eyebrow. Bryleah blinks. Sootic nods to Haruk. Dwil bites Llillith! Dwil grumbles. Bryleah says, "I want a mage guild." Bryleah nods. Bryleah sashays about with a content look on her face. Rayvynne begins chuckling at Bryleah. Dwil just tickled Bryleah. Ekimeniso says, "I want a brothel inspector guild" Ralley says, "All the guild skill type things other than Warrior and Rogue are to be implemented via the Artisan's project I'd thought" Sootic says, "Cept your guild skills are your spells" Sootic chuckles. Kiffin chuckles. Dwil laughs! Hubris rolls his eyes. Kiffin says, "Okay, the roleplayers associations." Krystic says, "wont work here" Kimli asks, "Will I finally complete a knitting project?" Anathema asks, "Profession based quests too for the guilds right?" Krystic nods to Kiffin. Krystic rubs Rayvynne gently. Katti nods to Rayvynne. Kimli nods to Rayvynne. Kiffin says, "The idea is..." Kiffin says, "People will be able to play NPCs." Ralley grins. Sootic says, "Neat" Bryleah grins at Kiffin. Bryleah says, "sounds like fun" Karmen says, "oooohh...." Bryleah says, "sign me up" Karmen grins evilly. Kiffin says, "There are caveats." Rubyjoy says, "Sounds like a lot of fun" There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Rubyjoy crosses her eyes. Karmen says, "caveats? I don't know what that is..." Rayvynne leans on Krystic. Krystic grins at Rayvynne. Rubyjoy begins chuckling at Karmen. Kiffin says, "There has to be a hiring process." Bryleah says, "Such as being killed by Rubyjoy" Bryleah grins slowly. Rubyjoy says, "Adam just said the same thing" Rubyjoy points at Sootic. Karmen says, "hehe" Karmen giggles. Llillith says, "means no killing Dwil just because you can do it" Dwil sticks out his tongue. Bryleah says, "I'm kidding you know." Ekimeniso says, "I wanna nominate Jay/Hubris for a roleplayer association... he comes up with the most awesome ideas" Rubyjoy says, "Yes, eventually you will all know what it is like to be killed by Rubyjoy, but give me sometime" Kiffin says, "If there are commands granted, we have to have confidence they won't be abused." Cheyd came through a double door. Hubris glances at Ekimeniso. Hubris swoons. Cheyd smiles. Cheyd exclaims in Elven, "Here we all are!" Sootic says, "Stipulations, qualifications, and/or warnings" Karmen giggles. Rayvynne nods to Kiffin. Krystic nods to Kiffin. Rubyjoy says, "I just wish Jay would come out into public sometimes" Kiffin says, "But the goal is, to habe people plaing roles." Rubyjoy stares at Hubris. Hubris stands up. Karmen nods. Cheyd joins Dwil's group. Suroth gasps. (Hubris dusts himself off.) Karmen says, "That'd be cool" Karmen joins Dwil's group. Kimli says, "That sounds like fun" Krystic says, "meaning sharing of accounts would need to end if you were involved with it" Anathema nods. Dwil asks, "so rather than waste GM time, a player can run the NPC?" Kiffin asks, "Honestly, Jeff?" Krystic nods to Kiffin. Sootic says, "Which we're working towards now" Kiffin says, "Yes." Rayvynne says, "I would think so." Sootic nods to Krystic. Rayvynne nods to Kiffin. Suroth scratches his chin. Rubyjoy says, "He's right, and we do share accounts to much" Haruk asks, "well at least he didnt ask bluntly?" Karmen nods. Karmen nods. Hubris says, "Amen sister." Suroth nods. Kiffin chuckles. Dwil says, "a question about that one Kiffin...." Suroth nods to Dwil. Kiffin says, "I'm sorry... but..." Krystic says, "theres no way Kiffin can trust someone to run an npc.....if three other people have access to that account" Rayvynne says, "The sharing accounts is a symptom of the population problem though" Dwil asks, "my brother plays a character on my account, but not Dwil, and I don't play his, so I would be out?" Suroth nods to Rayvynne. Kiffin asks, "If I don't know WHO I am giving access to, why should I?" Karmen asks, "Why are you letting them on that account if you don't trust them?" Ralley says, "What if the NPC aren't necessarily tied to player accounts." Krystic nods to Kiffin. Suroth nods to Kiffin. Rubyjoy says, "I personally am going to break my habit of account sharing" Krystic says, "you shouldnt" Anathema chuckles. Suroth nods to Ralley. There is a faint beating from the troll heart inside the pendant worn by Krystic. Ralley asks, "Could they be set up as seperate accounts?" Sootic says, "There has to be a certain level of trust" Sootic nods to Kiffin. Suroth nods to Llillith. Bryleah says, "some people wouldn't be able to play if they weren't playing on someone else's account." Katti scratches her head. Suroth cackles! Krystic nods to Bryleah. Krystic says, "very true" Katti nods. Katti nods. Haruk says, "Thats how i started, i was playing on Belas account for a good while" Kiffin says, "There are secrets that have to be maintained." Bryleah says, "I'm not going to name names, though." Sootic says, "Which is why we're seperating the accounts with billing and access" Sootic nods to Bryleah. Dwil nods to Kiffin.

Krystic chuckles. Suroth chuckles. Krystic says, "im guilty more than most" Rubyjoy says, "No real fear of death, what fun is that" Llillith says, "abuse problem with that, Eki...that would allow the player running the NPC to log their character on as well" Bryleah says, "the password could be changed after the event to prevent account sharing."
