Temi states, "
Alright. Let's go ahead and get started. Do we have a volunteer to scribe? You just need to log the meeting and post it up on the forums for those who couldn't make it."

Zabris appears in a swirling mist. [OOC]

Taunya states, "
I can do it.

Temi declaims, "
Thanks Taunya!"


Azarial cheerfully distracts her brother-in-law playing mechwarrior online.



Temi states, "
Okay, so unfortunately Kin had some sort of cake-related emergency so she won't be able to join us for the meeting today, and I'll be running it in her place."

Taunya states, "
Sounds like the best kind of emergency to me."


Temi wonders, "
Agenda for today is 1) Staff updates, 2) Player Heartbeat, 3) Player Topics. Does anyone have any topics that they would like to get on the list to start us off?"

[OOC] Romeyo: "It's a party up in this OOC chat."

Temi has transferred Cada. [OOC]


Temi claims, "
Okay. So, no topics for now. But please let us know if you think of any while we're going through."

Taunya nods.



Temi states, "
Since I'm already talking, I'll start with my update."


Temi claims, "
Not a whole lot out of the ordinary - RPA, requests and such, but I did finish up the merge for economics, once Az had that converted over, so that was a full night of setting skill levels."

Temi has transferred Galen. [OOC]


Temi muses, "
So... Az?"

The Courier hands Zabris some mail.


Azarial states, "
Mostly bugs and what not."

Azarial says, "
I canlt think of anythign amazing or dramatic."
Taunya
claims to Temi and Azarial, "Good work on the merge. I'm digging it."


Azarial claims, "
Still waiting on praen's combat testing for the next round"


Cada claims, "
This new cloak thing looks rad."


Galen questions, "
New cloak thing?"


Temi says, "
Looks like we really need to process the changes still... I do think it's mainly bugs."


Azarial claims, "
Oh yes, the change to cloaks."


Temi states, "
Kin posted about it on.. I think the Announce board"


Temi states, "
Announce board 7."


Temi states, "
Basically, we are deprecating desc cloak for having it stored on the cloak itself instead."

Taunya questions, "
Will that be alterable outside of retooling?"


Temi claims, "
No, I don't believe so."


Temi muses, "
Okay, anything else from Az then?"


Azarial shrugs eloquently with more tail than shoulders.



Azarial says, "
The @desc_cloak is tool only atm this time"


Azarial trails off, "
There is the limited time option to convert things over as a request, but..."

Temi nods.

Eirian has lost link.


Temi says, "
We'll update you guys on that soon."

Eirian has reconnected.


Temi questions, "
Okay, Ismael?"

Ismael gives Temi the following:
( 17)a crumbling chocolate ship being surfed by a chocolate bear



Goodryke queries, "
Chocolate?"


Diana claims, "
Yes, cute chocolate, too cute to eat."


Ismael exclaims, "
Okay! So-- this week I took a bit of a hiatus but I have been working on assets. I was a bit burnt out but I'm back to my full energies now!"

Temi queries, "
Yay energies back! And monthly plot is in progress, I believe?"


Ismael claims, "
Ah-- yes! I did post some ideas. I'm looking forward to handling that with Praen."

Temi nods.


Temi says, "
Look for that in the upcoming week or so, provided no issues come up. Likely related to infrastructuer and or class relations."

Temi queries to Ismael, "Anything else you want to add now?"


Ismael says, "
Nope! Not much to report other than a few reqs."


Temi asks, "
Okay, Zabris?"


Zabris states, "
I am nearly done with the helpfile web app. You can start to use it at http://ti-legacy.com/help - Browsing and searching work, with a coupla quirks that I'm trying to fix. Also TODO: 1) convert mud color codes into web colors. 2) make See Also entries switch you to the corresponding helpfile. 3) update to the newer data set that Az provided with the helpfile names. 4) some additional accessibility testing."


Ismael claims, "
The helpfiles website is AWESOME, by the way."


Ismael claps for Zabris.



Zabris claims, "
Thanks, soon to be awesomer."


Temi claims, "
Yeah, big huzzahs for Zabris for getting these sorts of goodies in for us."


Ismael claims, "
I do have a quesiton about it."

Temi has transferred Asala. [OOC]

Temi gives a crumbling chocolate ship being surfed by a chocolate bear to Asala.


Ismael says, "
The searching functionality is awesome; do you have plans to let us search the content of helpfiles too? Could filters be a possible addition? I'm really hyped about how easy it is to browse helpfiles with that."


Ismael says, "
Like, not only titles but also what's in the helpfile."


Zabris says, "
It does search the content of helpfiles."


Ismael declaims, "
Ooooh. 10/10. Thank you for that!"


Zabris claims, "
Just still groups by category. Once you open the category it only shows files that still match your query."

Ismael nods at Zabris.


Temi trails off, "
Awesome. Thanks, Zabris! Anything else you want to update us on? (I don't imagine there was really time, but...)"


Zabris states, "
Nope."


Temi trails off, "
Okay. Looking at Xinoe's report..."

Feamanuslaewyn is idle.


Temi says, "
Looks like she's been fixing typos, doing requests and buildings, and cleaning up notes."


Ismael declares, "
A lot of building!"

Temi nods in agreement.


Temi states, "
Okay, then! So, player heartbeat. How has the game felt this week? How was RP? Anything itching at anybody we ought to know about? (No, that's okay, don't tell us about that rash.)"


Galen says, "
Uncontentious."


Goodryke claims, "
Interesting, a lot of learning curve that for sure"

Ismael smiles at Goodryke.

Taunya exclaims to Goodryke, "
Seems to be going well! I enjoyed our scenes"


Goodryke claims, "
I am also taking notes and once this guy is finally dead in a ditch, one way or another, I will do a long post with my suggestions how to make order less of a chore"


Temi questions, "
Sounds a bit.. light? Do we have less RP around this week or just a smaller turnout today? Everything feeling okay on the ground?"


Goodryke exclaims, "
As tehre is some ground that can be improved! ;)"


Temi states, "
Always plenty of places to improve almost anything! Always glad to hear about ideas."


Diana claims, "
Why must he be dead in a ditch? You never know, he could live a long happy full life. :d yeah, a little less rp for me, but nothing horendous."

Taunya claims, "
I've been a little busy with RL stuff. I've enjoyed what I've done this week though."

Goodryke questions to Diana, "Long living inquisitors?"


Diana claims, "
Yeah, you never know, could hapen."


Goodryke chuckles


Temi grins.


Temi questions, "
Any other topics folks want to let us know about? Problematic things or such?"


Diana says, "
No, it's been a problem free week for me."


Temi questions, "
Okay, well... has anyone thought of any player topics they want to get on the list?"

Taunya states, "
Maybe a few feature requests, if we just need to kill some time."


Eirian claims, "
No topics here, but I would like to thank folks for showing up at my ST event last weekend. It was fun and a good learning experience for me, too."

Eirian eats a crumbling chocolate ship being surfed by a chocolate bear.


Goodryke says, "
Nooo"


Temi queries, "
Okay, sure, Taunya, what's on your mind?"

Taunya says, "
Mundane snares/traps would be neat to have, since the mages got something like that."

Cada is idle.


Temi muses, "
I feel like something like that may have een discussed before, but don't know if it ever got any traction. What did you have in mind for it?"

Taunya says, "
Caltrops that do a little damage, a snare that could possibly trap animals when they walk into a room, reducing the damage they can do, and maybe something that will send an RP yell to adjacent rooms when someone enters. "


Temi queries, "
Could potentially be something that might get specced up. Is that something anyone feels should be a priority, or just an interesting thing?"


Goodryke wonders, "
Could be interesting for trapping people, catch them with a bear trap and then ransom for "caretaking" fee. Though how to balance it against player?"


Goodryke states, "
Unless you can set it to go off only against specific person somehow, otherwise that could lead to some odd trap shots"

Taunya states, "
I wouldn't suggest snares working against players, but the other two should."


Temi muses, "
I imagine targeting a certain person would only work for magical stuff, not anything mundane, since why wouldn't it go off for somebody else?"

Goodryke states to Temi, "In all honesty no idea, just thinking aloud"

Temi nods.


Temi claims, "
Yeah, me too."


Temi asks, "
Okay, did you have other suggestions, Taunya?"

Taunya claims, "
I'd like a way to do strike-through ansi code."


Azarial states, "
Pretty sure that is not supported by telnet."


Temi says, "
Probably not much we can do then."


Temi questions, "
Anything else?"

Taunya claims, "
Wouldn't work on all clients, no. That's all that comes to mind at the moment."


Temi questions, "
Anyone else have any ideas for anything they'd like to disscuss?"


Temi states, "
We have 10 minutes left, so if not, we could chat for 10 minutes, or I could send you all back 10 minutes early."

Galen is idle.
Feamanuslaewyn has left the game.

Ailu has gone AFK.

Galen is no longer idle.
Galen has returned from AFK.


Diana pokes the Galen



Temi says, "
Okay. I'll go ahead and send everyone back then, because sitting here for 10 minutes of silence does not sound super exciting."


Temi pontificates, "
Thanks all for coming!"

Ailu has returned from AFK.

Taunya waves!



Diana exclaims, "
Energize!"
