Tatty pontificates, "Loook at all us!"

Karrin states, "Ok! Let's get started."

Karrin claims, "OOC Chat Rules:

- Approach each topic with the mindset that each person is doing the best they can with the
knowledge they have, staff and player alike.
- Please avoid topics around current events. Nothing should be revealed in an OOC meeting that
others would prefer to find out in game ICly.
- This is not the correct forum for criticism of a specific player or a topic centered around one
player. If there are concerns about a specific player, please address that with staff privately.
- This is not the correct forum for bringing up policy violations. If there are instances of
perceived policy violations, please address that with staff privately."

Karrin asks, "Do I have someone who can log?"

InvestSouthside states, "Can if no one else wants"

Karrin queries, "Sounds good. Ok. How has RP been this week?"

Tatty states, "So good."

Lyse claims, "It's starting very well for me :)"

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to KindledFlames.

Sororitas states, "Was a good week."

KindledFlames says, "It's been busy"

cat says, "Very good, I got to do knight things and find people"

Prythe says, "As my first week, I have to say, it's been great so far."

Pippa states, "Yes, definitely busy"

Hibiscus states, "Enjoying it! People have been very welcoming."

Rosamund wanders into the vicinity. [login]

Freeman says, "I've had some very pivotal scenes, and had some people explicitly make time for that.
It was a ride, that's for sure."

Rosethorn wanders into the vicinity. [login]

Eeel says, "RP has been awesome, yeah. Lots to do, lots to talk about. My guild is popping off."

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Rosamund.

Lyse declares, "On that topic, I would like to thank everyone for the warm welcoming I have
received. You all have been fantastic, staff and player alike !"

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Rosethorn.

Rosamund declaims, "Lots of great RP! "

Tatty pontificates, "We're guild-y of being busy!"

Rosethorn holds a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas in her hand.

Temi states, "We were just talking about how RP's been this week"

Karrin queries, "I'm glad to hear it. Anyone have any topics for this week?"

Rosethorn opens up the beak of her little toy bluebird, letting out a mournful whistle on its
behalf.

Ikeala claims, "I have a clarification question on one of Lochan's updates."

Karrin says, "Alright, we can add that to the list."

Prythe says, "All of the ferrets in Rosa's fundraiser. Discuss."

Rosamund says, "#investsouthside"

InvestSouthside claims, "Heard my name"

Karrin claims, "Alrighty, so we have one. We'll go ahead and move along to staff updates, and if
anyone thinks of anything else in the meantime, they can send me a tell."

Karrin states, "Dorothy isn't here, but she came in and did several player build requests this week.
Lochan obviously did QUITE a lot of things. And, I'll let Temi speak for herself."

Temi nods in agreement.

Temi claims, "Not any big particular projects - we've kicked off the new seneschal's stuff, and
Brenier has a list of problems to see about figuring, and I've seen some of those starting to get
investigated. And I've got some plots on my plate I've been starting to see about."

Temi states, "So I think that's the main thing on me for now. I'll keep working on getting back to
you all on all of those - they are not forgotten, but I apologize for the delay in some of them."

Temi nods at Karrin.

Karrin has transferred Ysandre. [OOC]

Karrin claims, "I have been working, with the rest of the staff, on some Troubadour things - which I
am excited to work with when we get there. I've also been chasing Lochan around and testing things
with him. If you didn't hear, we had a big bug this morning - we had to revert back to yesterday. So
if you sent mail past the rollover, or board notes, you may have to redo those."

Temi has created a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas[5].

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Karrin.

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Ysandre.

Ikeala asks, "Will that also effect cnotes?"

Karrin states, "No idea, you'd have to look."

Temi says, "I think Lochan was saying the main effect is likely to be stuff on the ground after
midnight"

Karrin nods in agreement with Temi.

Karrin says, "I can see notes I sent this morning still up, so I think most things are good."

Scarry wanders into the vicinity. [login]

Scarry says, "Oh"

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Scarry.

Scarry states, "I forgor we have a meeting lol"

Ysandre questions, "Why do some people have different names/intros here? Is that just for fun?"

Karrin claims, "They set them."

Scarry claims, "Ooc title"

Ysandre says, "Nice thanks."

Karrin claims, "Ok. I think that's mostly all for staff."

Karrin queries to Ikeala, "Question on one of Lochan's updates?"

Scarry claims, "Excuse me can you do it all again I wasn't here."

Karrin states to Scarry, "Lucky for you, there will be... a -log-."

Scarry trails off, "But Karrin you know I can't read..."

Karrin says, "Oh, right. Damn these text games."

Freeman claims, "I was elected to lead, not to read"

Tatty questions, "I just write smut, I have to comprehend real words now..wait what? "

Tatty states, "I kid. I shush."

Scarry claims, "Anyway, since i wasn't for the pulse thing here I am just going to say it now :
AAAa, many newbies in my guild! Exciting, but a bit scared I frak up! Lots of RP, but council
meetings are hell for me."

Ikeala claims, "So I noted the comment about Invite now allowing use inside phomes and Guildhalls.
How will that interact with other Guildhall systems? And/or plots or policy."

Karrin states to Ikeala, "Only to PUBLIC rooms in guildhalls and phomes."

Karrin states, "So, specifically, rooms flagged public where people can typically get there anyway."

InvestSouthside queries, "So like the lounge in the merchants guildhall?"

Karrin says, "And, same rules. If you invite, no kidnapping, murdering, or maiming. Everyone must
get away."

Karrin says to InvestSouthside, "I don't think that's public."

Rosethorn states, "Probably more like the Entrance to the guild "

InvestSouthside maybe misremembers

Scarry queries, "So the physicians it would be triage and the entrance hall?"

Ikeala says, "Oh, yeah, this isn't a question for my Super Mansion of Magma Doom specifically. But
more in general, as will that allow folks to visit without folks being informed with the regular
pings on the channel, etc."

Karrin states, "Yep, lounge in the guildhall is not public. However, entrance to the guild is, yes."

Karrin declares to Scarry, "Yep!"

cat says, "I invite you into ahalin prison"

Karrin claims, "Order can use it at the altar."

Tatty declares, "A cat!"

Tatty shushes.

Temi says, "Or to your shop front rooms for your phome, etc."

Karrin says, "Right, if you've set your shopfronts as public."

Freeman claims, "I'm told being a problem opens a portal to Ahalin. But that might be a secret
entrance."

Karrin claims, "Now, it will also still work in all of the places it used to. Previous code
requested that phomes and guildhalls, all of them, were not allowed. All I did was ask Lochan to add
specifically public flagged rooms. Which, that is what Trogdor was so happy about on the OOC channel
yesterday when people were confused."

Karrin claims, "All rules and policies still apply."

Karrin says, "I honestly thought people would have more questions about us changing teaching for
guildskills more than this. But, definitely both intended to help the game."

Scarry states, "Well, I am not pinged when someone is in the madison triage or entrance hallway -
that comes when they notify the physicians specifically."

Karrin claims to Scarry, "Right, exactly."

Scarry wonders, "Also no, seems pretty reasonable as to how it is laid out?

Ysandre queries, "You changed teaching for guildskills? What does that mean exactly? "

Scarry claims, "Before it was 26 you needed to teach it. Now it is 37."

Karrin says, "For guildskills only."

Ysandre says, "Gotcha."

Scarry says, "Which means you can't buy, say, sword at 36 and propagate it around even as non-noble
non-knight."

Karrin states, "Meaning that someone can't come out of chargen ready and able to teach a
guildskill."

Karrin says to Scarry, "Precisely."

Scarry claims, "Incredibly reasonable change."

Lyse claims, "It makes sense to me too."

Temi states, "We thought so. Glad everyone seems to agree"

Karrin claims, "To get to 37, you'd have had to actually interacted with someone who -can- learn it
at that level, and then if you want to teach it, well. Code won't block it."

Karrin nods in agreement with Temi.

Scarry states, "I didn't know you only needed 26. If I knew, I would've asked why it isn't at least
37 lol."

Freeman claims, "Now you'll need to find a sneaksy traitor from the Guild to teach you secrits. "

Temi nods in agreement.

InvestSouthside devil's advocate just because, "Nope dislike." Huffs.

Karrin claims, "Sometimes they will teach it and it will be kosher and up front."

Scarry exclaims, "That's not devil's advocate!"

InvestSouthside hushes scarry.

Scarry is only silent when fed papaya.

Karrin has transferred Mercy. [OOC]

Karrin claims, "Anyway, give Lochan lots of love, please. He's been working really hard the last few
days to go through the list of bugs, etc. He's been making lots of changes. Biggest projects were
for me, admittedly, but also many bugs."

Temi gives a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas to Mercy.

Scarry states, "Lochan is a trooper, we all know. Many kudos to the spaghetti robot."

Lyse states, "Lochan is obviously very courageous to dive in that codebase."

Temi claims, "And he went through a lot of stress to restore all the objects on the ground when they
disappeared this morning, figuring you guys wanted your objects still"

Temi nods in agreement.

Ysandre cheers for Lochlan.

Hibiscus declares, "Thank you very much, Lochan!"

Sororitas claims, "It's a dirty dangerous job and I appreciate Lochan for doing it."

Karrin claims, "Yes, that."

Temi trails off, "Though he did say removing all those objects sped up performance a bunch..."

Karrin questions, "Ok! Any more topics/questions?"

Temi grins.

Prythe is idle.

Scarry claims, "Thanks for the corpse, Karrin."

Scarry says, "I will treat it tenderly."

Karrin trails off to Scarry, "OH NO! I might have to recreate that...."

Karrin claims to Scarry, "But, I will."

Ikeala asks, "Wait, are we giving out free corpses?"

HIEROPHANT trails off, "Well, if big piles of items are an issue, we could make all those misc
animal parts sausage-able..."

Karrin says, "Since apparently someone historically probably accidentally buried the corpse for
physician teaching, I made them a new corpse today. But... I will need to redo."

Lyse declaims, "We appreciated the performance gain earlier, indeed!"

Scarry says, "Yeah we had a demo corpse but apparently at some point we did a squirrel, buried and
forgot it."

cat says, "Who wants to donate their body to science"

HIEROPHANT states, "Oh no. That's how you get squirrel trees."

Eeel claims, "NO one told us it was meant to be a demo corpse so I probably just assumed it was an
unknown body"

Karrin chuckles.

Eeel claims, "So I'm sure I said 'omg we need to bury this corpse it's been here forever'"

Karrin says, "All good. Will fix again."

Tatty states, "Eeel..do you often bury corpses."

Tatty leans in curiously.

Eeel claims, "All the time yes it's part of my job"

Karrin claims to Tatty, "Uh... yeah. Yeah, he does."

Tatty squints

Karrin says, "Ok! If there's no more topics, I can shoosh you back to the grid. If you wind up
somewhere funny, ping me, and tell me where you want to be, and I'll send you there."

Temi states, "Might need to tool it up nicely with splayed out ribs and all that fun demo stuff"

Scarry states, "FUn fact : He buried actually zero corpses."

Scarry states, "He just tells ME to."

Scarry claims, "Because I am the one who is able bodied."

Karrin states, "I had it tooled quickly, I can let Temi tool it for maximum realism, though."

Temi queries, "Delegation is the same thing as doing, right?"

Freeman will delegate the mischief.

Eeel states, "LOL Ok I scarry I often get someone else to do it because my char is not able bodied,
but I HAVE actually codedly done it a couple of times and emoted saying I got some virtual orderly
to do it"

Karrin states to Temi, "I just also made sure to embalm it, so it wouldn't decay. And I did notake,
so it couldn't run away and be buried again."

Prythe is no longer idle.

Eeel states, "Embalmed bodies DO eventually decay I believe"

Prythe has returned from AFK.

Eeel says, "It just takes a long time depending on your skill"

Scarry claims, "We'll just get Prythe as the new display body. No worries."

Eeel states, "LOL"

Karrin claims, "That works. Kill the newb."

Karrin claims, "ANYWAY, back to grid you go. Enjoy your jailbird"

Karrin trails off, "Sending you back in 3....."

Rosethorn stops using a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas.

Hibiscus puts a plump little plush bluejay dressed in burlap jail pajamas in a fashionable silk
satchel in greens with white butterflies.

Karrin trails off, "2..... get your snide remarks in now..."

Eeel says, "NO WHEN IM NOT HERE I STOP EXISTING"

Scarry states, "Karrin is great! I love her."

Karrin says, "1...... Dawwwww."

Hibiscus pontificates, "Thanks for everything!"

Capitalism pontificates, "Poof!"
