Q & A Index

LadyAce says, 'soooooo, who has a question?'
Spanish-Flea raises his hand.
LadyAce points at Spanish-Flea.
Spanish-Flea says, 'is huggy bear gonna be on to take questions/spamming
tonight?'
Sandra says, 'probably in a little bit'
Minotaur says, 'hrmm i know i need a question'
Spanish-Flea raises his hand.
Tah raises his hand.
Minotaur raises his hand.
Minotaur says, 'better get a raise in before i get back to far'
LadyAce points at Spanish-Flea.
Spanish-Flea says, 'after the obvious short term PK fixes, like changes to con
characters, and klein ac or whatnot, what long term balance changes are you
thinking about?'
Spanish-Flea says, 'particularily, when are creates not gonna blow?'
Sandra says, 'creates aren't really on the list of things we're worrying about
atm'
Sandra says, 'short and long term'
Spanish-Flea gasps in astonishment.
Tah says to Sandra, 'What is?'
Minotaur says, 'creates rule right now :P'
TheWatcher sighs loudly.
Spanish-Flea says, 'yeah man, you can just roll over other pkers with a
create'
LadyAce says, 'dex needs some help, we've talked about that....'
Sandra says, 'short term is dex, the headbutt thing'
Minotaur says, 'your stealin my question ladyace'
Spanish-Flea says, 'yes, but there are dex iron will changes coming'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Sandra says, 'long term is some new toys'
Trousers says, 'oh oh'
Trousers says, 'dex iron will you say'
Spanish-Flea says, 'how about some old create toys, like roots with a 3c word
in them?'
TheWatcher returns to being In Character.
Minotaur says, 'good deal!'
Sandra shakes her head in disagreement with Spanish-Flea.
Spanish-Flea gives Sandra permission to leave.
Minotaur laughs.
Sandra says, 'we're done toying wtih mages for a while, I believe :)'
LadyAce says, 'ok, that cover the question?'
Trousers says, 'i miss roots.'
Trousers whines.
Spanish-Flea says, 'if by cover you mean 'thats all you can take without
starting to vent' then yes'
LadyAce says, 'I'd like to move ahead if we can, yea'
Tah comforts Spanish-Flea.
LadyAce thanks Spanish-Flea heartily.
LadyAce points at Tah.
Tah says, 'erm, does anyone besides me think that -50 free ac from klein is a
bit, much?'
Santa-Claus shakes his head.
Minotaur says, 'nahh thats Kliens only perc'
Santa-Claus says, 'but then i'm from klein, and i'd have -10 ac without that
skill =p'
Jeffrey raises his hand.
Jeffrey sweeps Trillian into a romantic waltz - aren't they a striking couple?
Tah says, 'it's a huge leap from say, a create taran.'
Trillian ponders Kris Kringle's existence.
Tah says, 'or liman sniper.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'i think once templating comes in it might be a little more
even'
Sandra nods her agreement with Spanish-Flea.
Jeffrey snickers softly.
Spanish-Flea says, 'right now my made has more ac than my con/dex because his
eqhas way more ac'
Trousers says, 'key words there "once templating comes"'
Minotaur says to Spanish-Flea, 'thats pretend hehe.'
Tah says to Spanish-Flea, 'Mebbe.'
Trillian snaps her fingers. ATTITUDE!
Tah shrugs helplessly.
Spanish-Flea says, 'like old red boots are -15 ac, -5 ac on new boots'
Tah says, 'move on!'
LadyAce says, 'okay'
LadyAce points at Minotaur.
Minotaur says, 'well my question was are there going to be any changes to
Bowman to make them better or worse in the near future....'
Tah raises his hand.
Minotaur says, 'bowman/dex'
Trousers says, 'play with greek fire oil, maybe'
Sandra says, 'snipers in general have gotten some changes in the recent past
to help them out'
Trousers says, 'shoot body part!'
Tah says, 'yeah, the scan thing is too sweet.'
Trousers throws his head back and cackles gleefully!
Sandra nods her agreement with Trousers.
Sandra says, 'I don't think that they really need much more in the shooting
department'
Spanish-Flea says, 'the new sniper changes help, just not enough'
Trousers says, '"Shoot minotaur head"  "Minotaur looks really unhappy about
that.  You think you hit a vital organ."'
Trousers giggles.
Spanish-Flea says, 'minotaur doesnt need his head'
Minotaur says, 'yea but Bowman cant wear a weapon and gunman can :P'
Sandra says, 'other stuff, probably. But shoot is rather fun atm'
Minotaur says, 'i dont'
Sandra says, 'um'
Spanish-Flea bonks on Minotaur's head...hmmm...sounds hollow!
LadyAce chuckles politely.
Tah says, 'yeah, the verbage could be toned up for the new aims.'
Sigurd raises his hand.
Minotaur grins evilly.
Sandra says, 'a bowman can too wear a weapon'
Minotaur says, 'bah'
Spanish-Flea says, 'bows are all two handed, and a lot arent up to the new 8
stats thing'
Sandra says, 'yea, Huginn's gonna be fixing the aim things'
Trousers says, 'wel'
Sandra nods her agreement with Spanish-Flea.
Trousers says, 'well'
LadyAce says, 'idea the changes you think would be cool'
Trousers says, 'rigormortis has 5 one handed fairie bows'
Trousers ducks to the ground.
LadyAce says, 'then we can steal wording from you :)'
Spanish-Flea says, 'if they were all as cool as bows froma  kickass area like,
boston'
Jeffrey goes EEK! at Trillian in distress - isn't Trillian an awful person for
teasing?
Minotaur says, 'k just ignore me i just dont know anything hahah'
Sandra says, 'well, that's cool. Just odn't pay a lot for them ;)'
Trousers nods his agreement with Sandra.
Tah says to LadyAce, 'I'm a lowly mortal for a reason :p'
LadyAce says to Minotaur, 'I think the reason we're okay with Bows being
different than guns is that anyone can use a bow.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'taints are good, the thing about bows is that if you dont
taint they arent better damwise and the loading sucks'
Trousers nods his agreement with LadyAce.
Minotaur says, 'k'
Spanish-Flea says, 'plus if you're not a sniper anyway (95+ perc) the new bow
changes dont help'
Trousers says, 'and in all reality'
Sandra says, 'well'
LadyAce says to Minotaur, 'They're never going to be just-the-same. And taints
are a nice advantage.'
Trousers says, 'guns are going to hurt more than a gu'
Minotaur says, 'taint doesnt help a bit when you have to dip individual
arrows'
Trousers says, 'gun*'
Sandra says, 'they will help but not as much'
LadyAce says, 'dip a bunch in advance'
Tah says, 'i still don't get why two handed things can't be +10 net.'
Minotaur says, 'yea but there alot of rent'
Spanish-Flea says, 'bows dont explode :P'
Spanish-Flea says, 'although if they did hehe'
Sandra giggles.
Sandra says, 'they used to'
Santa-Claus returns to being In Character.
Sandra had a composite explode once.
Spanish-Flea says, 'bahaha'
Sandra giggles.
Spanish-Flea says, 'how about this'
Spanish-Flea says, 'heavier bows have a trade off'
Spanish-Flea says, 'stats for loading capacity'
Tah says to Sandra, 'No exploding pink plastic pieces?'
Sandra giggles.
LadyAce says, 'did we cover your question?'
Sandra says, 'was when I was a mort'
LadyAce raises her eyebrow at Minotaur.
Minotaur says, 'sure why not'
Minotaur grins evilly.
Spanish-Flea says, 'say, every 2 stats off gets you an extra loaded arrow'
Tah says to Sandra, 'You were a sniper?'
Sandra says, 'I was a taran'
Spanish-Flea says, 'so you can have a dispel and a blinding loaded'
Tah gasps at Sandra.
LadyAce says, 'let's move on, folks :)'
LadyAce says, 'the next question comes from Jeffrey'
Spanish-Flea says to Tah, 'dont matter what she was, she's old and creaky and
36k hours now.'
Tah nods his agreement with LadyAce.
Tah says to Spanish-Flea, 'True.'
LadyAce points at Jeffrey.
Sigurd nods solemnly.
Jeffrey says, 'okay well there's an area'
Jeffrey says, 'in one spot in this area there is housing available'
Jeffrey says, 'according to build'
Sandra says, 'I fixed it already'
Sandra giggles.
LadyAce giggles.
Sandra says, 'friday'
Sandra smiles happily.
Jeffrey ponders Sandra's existence.
LadyAce chuckles politely.
Jeffrey says to Sandra, 'Where is it?'
Sandra is that good.
Spanish-Flea says to Jeffrey, 'points more fingers please.'
Sandra says, 'paris'
Jeffrey snaps his fingers. ATTITUDE!
Spanish-Flea says to Jeffrey, 'without them i cant flame.'
Sandra giggles.
Jeffrey says to Sandra, 'You ARE good.'
Jeffrey giggles.
Sandra says, 'I saw the bug report and went and fixed it ;)'
Jeffrey says, 'what about astarte?'
Jeffrey says, 'I haven't seen nestor lately'
Sandra says, 'he's wasting away on WoW'
Sandra giggles.
Spanish-Flea says, 'what about astarte, it's a pushover for so much xp'
Jeffrey snickers softly.
Jeffrey says to Spanish-Flea, 'Have you been there since last friday?'
Spanish-Flea says to Jeffrey, 'no, did she suddenly get really really badass?'
Jeffrey says, 'she's buuuuuuuuggy'
Jeffrey says to Spanish-Flea, 'Imagine that one special she does.'
Spanish-Flea says to Jeffrey, 'oh, I used entrance and blind on her so maybe I
didnt notice :P'
Jeffrey says to Spanish-Flea, 'Now imagine it happening four times a round.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'bahaha'
LadyAce says, 'let's go ahead to tah since Sandra got that covered'
LadyAce points at Tah.
Tah says, 'kinda relates to my last question.'
Tah says, 'when are templates coming?'
Jeffrey says, 'errr she did?'
Minotaur says to Tah, 'never there fake but shh.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'when they coax rufus to forgo sleep'
LadyAce says, 'Rufus is on vacation!'
Spanish-Flea says, 'and live on a caffiene drip for a few weeks'
Sandra says, 'When Rufus gets some free time to finish them up. And, he's on
vacation this week'
LadyAce says, 'and he's doing nothing!'
Sandra giggles.
Spanish-Flea says, 'i hear 6 months'
LadyAce says, 'hard as it is to believe!'
Spanish-Flea says, 'that was the quote you gave me last time'
Minotaur says, 'there like skill trees'
Tah says to LadyAce, 'Ewww, Rufus is doing Nothing?'
Tah ducks to the ground.
Minotaur grins evilly.
Tah says, 'old ac gear is just, insane right now.'
Tah says, 'then throw old hit/dam gear on top.'
LadyAce says, 'we haven't been talkin about templates nearly as long as trees
:P'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Tah says, 'and it's just ugly, we NEED templates!'
LadyAce says, 'it's not the same, sirree!'
LadyAce giggles.
Minotaur says, 'sure it is'
LadyAce says, 'we're well aware that we need 'em.'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Tah nods his agreement with LadyAce.
Spanish-Flea says, 'we can go without skilltrees if the imms gave skill
redeems out a bit more'
Spanish-Flea raises his hand.
LadyAce says, 'but as far as I know, they've not been written'
Tah says, 'oh, speaking of redeems.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'without templating, old eq just becomes the new mud
currency'
Sandra says, 'yea, suckers'
TheWatcher sniffles quietly.
Tah says, 'had an older char redeem inspire, got no practice back.'
Minotaur says, 'nahh'
TheWatcher says, 'old eq'
Jeffrey says, 'old eq has been mud currency for 10 years :)'
LadyAce says, 'if that covers that question, we'll go on to Sigurd's question'
Spanish-Flea raises his hand.
Sigurd says, 'I was killing Kraken with Solei today,' you say exuberantly. 'We
had ONE rod with a twist. He wore it and fled when he was low. Then he gave
the rod to me, and I went down to hit the Kraken some more.'
Sigurd says, 'However, when I fledback up, the Kraken pulled HIM back down and
killed him. How come? I came down to help but died too of course.Stupid me.'
Kaige says, 'maybe he looked tastier?'
An aura of heavenly light appears above Kaige's head.
Sandra giggles.
Santa-Claus chortles with amusement.
Sigurd snuggles up to Kaige.
TheWatcher raises her hand.
LadyAce says, 'my guess is that he sets a flag to stick to one person'
Trillian returns to being In Character.
Sigurd says, 'it happened in the same pulse... and it really threw us off'
Minotaur raises his hand.
Sigurd twiddles with LadyAce's hair impishly.
Minotaur says, 'never mind i unraise my hand'
Jeffrey returns to being In Character.
Sigurd says, '..and?'
Spanish-Flea says, 'they're thinking'
Tah says to Sigurd, 'In the immortal words of sandra, contact that areas
builder, or the head builder.'
Tah ducks to the ground.
Sigurd says, 'ah'
Spanish-Flea says, 'that or theres is something killer funny that only imms
can see going on'
Sigurd grins evilly at Tah... Wonder what he's thinking...
Sandra says, 'I can say that it worked as intended'
LadyAce says, 'I'm hearing imm talk that it's acting as designed'
Kaige was checking the acts on the mob...
Sandra just looked.
Tah says to Sigurd, 'She actually said that to me, about greece.'
Kaige says, 'and I still say he looked tastier'
Sandra nods her agreement with Tah.
Sandra giggles at Kaige.
LadyAce nods her agreement with Kaige.
Sandra says, 'yea, tastier sounds good'
Santa-Claus says, 'he's a surgeon. less pointy parts.'
Sigurd says, 'does anyone agree that that sounds completely bogus?'
Spanish-Flea says, 'it's just immspeak'
Minotaur was already playing, and has reconnected.
Minotaur raises his hand.
Spanish-Flea says, 'kraken is doubleplusgood'
Tah says to Sigurd, 'I kinda like it ;)'
Sandra says, 'it's been that way for a while'
Sigurd says, 'the rod is supposed to enable flee...'
Sandra says, 'um'
Sandra says, 'no'
Sandra says, 'we fixed that bug a while ago'
Spanish-Flea says, 'you have two choices now, say 'ok' or say 'thats #$(#)$)#$
 it should be ''
Sandra giggles at Spanish-Flea.
Kaige says, 'something with big sucky tentacles might make that kinda hard
even if it did'
Sigurd smiles at Spanish-Flea.
Santa-Claus drinks from a fine china teapot.
Sandra says, 'you can do the quest safely. But you can't use it to kill the
kraken safely :)'
Trousers looks up into the sky and ponders.
Trousers returns to being In Character.
Sigurd says, 'but once you have fled..you are no longer a combattant'
Sandra says, 'you're still hated'
Sigurd says, 'you shouldnt get killed from that ...'
Tah says to Sigurd, 'Tell that to the vampire.'
Kaige says, 'doesn't mean the mob doesn't recognize things about you'
Sandra says, 'sure you should!'
Spanish-Flea says, 'just tell sandra her mother was a hampster and her father
smelled of elderberries'
TheWatcher says, 'smelt'
Sigurd says to Spanish-Flea, 'go away.'
Spanish-Flea says, 'it'll be more entertaining than trying to milk info'
Sandra says, 'and I wear combat boots to bed'
Sandra bounces onto Spanish-Flea's lap.
Tah giggles at TheWatcher.
Sigurd says, 'but if we both had rods.... we would both be safe?'
TheWatcher growls at Tah. Better leave before the fighting starts!
Spanish-Flea says, 'yes, shee'''s a lumberjack and she's ok!'
Tah pinches TheWatcher and you wonder what she will do back.
Sandra says, 'You cando the quest safely. But you can not use that quest to
kill the kraken safely.'
Santa-Claus says to Sigurd, 'probably not, since they said they fixed that bug
a while back.'
Sandra says, 'in other words'
Sandra says, 'don't do that :)'
Sigurd grumbles.
LadyAce says, 'I think we've covered this one!'
Sigurd hates imm answers like those....
Spanish-Flea says, 'methinks they didnt like all those pesky mages using an
army and watery deatht o solo the kraken'
An aura of heavenly light appears above Spanish-Flea's head.
Sigurd nods his agreement with LadyAce.
Sigurd says, 'oh and proize string machine?'
Sigurd says, 'update soon?'
Santa-Claus looks at the welcome board.
Sandra says, 'after the holiday'
Santa-Claus reads message #39 on the welcome board.
Sigurd says, 'okies'
Spanish-Flea says to Sigurd, 'consider yourself lucky, if they'd waved the
'explore' flag i woulda been with you biting their butts.'
LadyAce points at Spanish-Flea.
Sandra smiles happily.
Spanish-Flea says, 'ok, two questions'
Spanish-Flea says, 'one, kastina--goddess of earth and sky and mud, says that
fishing is broken'
Sandra says, 'it is'
Sandra says, 'Somar fixed it'
Spanish-Flea says, 'shoot smart?'
Sandra nods solemnly.
Santa-Claus snickers softly.
Sandra giggles.
LadyAce says, 'but, talk about a wack thing to have broke, eh?'
Spanish-Flea says, 'two, she who knows all also asked when tumble will be
fixed'
Minotaur says, 'fixed it so it dont work?'
Sandra says, 'what's wrong with tumble?'
Minotaur says, 'tumble doesnt ever go off'
Kaige says to Sandra, 'Same thing as far as I've seen in the bug logs... "it
doesn't work"'
Spanish-Flea says, 'apparently she who sees all and hears all says it doesnt
go off enough, and finds it too random for her divine tastes'
Tah says, 'i tumbled today at 80 dex'
Sandra says, 'oh'
Tah says, 'almost fel out of my chair'
Spanish-Flea says, 'particularily against bash'
Static has returned from the void.
Minotaur says, 'i have 93 dex and i havnt tumbled in a long time'
Spanish-Flea says, 'i've had 65 dex con/str tumble bashes and stuns with
regularity'
Santa-Claus also thinks that bash doesn't work, particularly against tumble =p
Tah says to Spanish-Flea, 'Karma ;)'
Sandra says, 'well, don't know of anything broken about it. But we can surely
throw Somar at it'
Sandra says, 'I like throwing SOmar.'
Sandra says, 'its fun'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Spanish-Flea says, 'shooting him roasting me a filet, and giving it to me is
funner'
LadyAce says, 'let's go ahead to Minotaur's question, TheWatcher's was
cancelled :)'
LadyAce points at Minotaur.
Minotaur says, 'why can you taint Gun ammo but it doesnt do anything? is it
going to be doing something in the future?'
Tah says to Sandra, 'Wouldn't it be funner to shoot him from your bow?'
Spanish-Flea laughs.
Spanish-Flea says, 'oh god'
Spanish-Flea says to Minotaur, 'think about a CLIP of blinding bullets.'
Sandra says, 'coz it's funny to have people think it'll work'
Santa-Claus says, 'cyanide tipped cop-killing bullets!'
TheWatcher cheers for Spanish-Flea - huzzah!
Tah says, 'kinda like chant from london :p'
LadyAce says, 'I don't think I've heard of bullets being tainted as a tactic,
historically I mean'
Minotaur says, 'yea i mean are there new herbs going in to be able to tip
bullets with or something like that?'
LadyAce says, 'not in the 1950s and before anyway :)'
Sandra says, 'it's that way because ammo is ammo is ammo, as far as the code
knows'
Minotaur says, 'k'
Minotaur says, 'just wondered'
Minotaur says, 'it just seemed weird'
LadyAce sticks with "not historicalicious" :)
Sandra says, 'one day we should probably split that up a little better :)'
Minotaur nods solemnly.
Minotaur says, 'well you could put a worm in a bullet and it should eat the
guy from the inside out like poison :P'
LadyAce says, 'do other folks have questions?'
Santa-Claus raises his hand.
Static says, 'ooo i have a question that will likely offend a portion of the
room'
Tah says, 'oh'
Static raises his hand.
Tah raises his hand.
Minotaur says, 'good!'
LadyAce points at Santa-Claus.
Santa-Claus says, 'I've been counting bashes that I hit vs. bashes that I
miss, and also bashes that hit me vs. bashes that miss me (all strictly
mobkill, I don't PK), and I've either had the worst luck ever or bash is
broken.'
Static says, 'ive experienced that too'
Santa-Claus missed 71 bashes out of 100, and then 68 out of 100, while being
hit with 87 out of 100
Static says, 'missing 60 or 70% at 98 str'
Sandra says, 'we've heard some problems with bash in that the higher str seems
to land less. Huginn is digging around trying to find the problem, but isn't
having any luck so far'
Tah says to Santa-Claus, 'Try kick ;)'
Tah says, 'it's worse!'
Santa-Claus says to Tah, 'thanks, I'll do that as soon as I want to suck.'
Tah says to Santa-Claus, 'Dex isn't so bad, really.'
Sandra says, 'hopefully we'll find it sooner rather than later'
LadyAce says, 'shall we go ahead on to Static?'
Minotaur says, 'oh yea i cant hit a thing with kick'
Minotaur says, 'course i got 93dex and it makes sense'
Santa-Claus says to Sandra, 'that pretty much answered my question, which was
gonna 'have other people been reporting this'.'
Santa-Claus says, 'so, thanks =)'
Sandra smiles happily.
LadyAce points at Static.
Static says, 'yo whats up with allowing dead descs but not elves... is a
zombie walking around any easier to believe then an elf?'
Sandra says, 'which?'
Static says, 'does it hurt immersion any less?'
Minotaur says, 'i agree'
Santa-Claus says, 'yeah, I want elves!'
Santa-Claus punches |10several overworked and underfed elves - what's his
problem?
Sandra giggles.
Tah says, 'prolly referring to lenore.'
LadyAce says, 'Lenore's desc is realllly old'
LadyAce says, 'wouldn't be allowed now'
Sandra says, 'ah, that's a really old desc, that's why'
Sandra nods her agreement with LadyAce.
Static says, 'oh... guess that makes it ok then :P'
LadyAce says, 'well, we tend to grandfather descs'
LadyAce says, 'people get their RPs linked into them and so on'
Tah says, 'stings have changed lots too.'
Static says, 'you can cut down on a lot of that by outlawing rp'
LadyAce says, 'mostly they've gotten more formalized over time'
Minotaur nods his agreement with Static.
LadyAce says, 'same with descs in a lot of ways'
Tah nods his agreement with LadyAce.
LadyAce says, 'things that used to be very discretionary become rules-based,
and someone's old discretion will always fall to the wrong side of the line'
LadyAce points at Tah.
Tah says, 'i don't know the rule now, but i t used to be an imm judgement
call, meaning diff imms would allow diff things, too.'
LadyAce jets afk to get food real quciklike
Tah says, 'how much thought, by various builders, is being put into higher ac,
0 stat eq?'
Tah nudges Sandra.
Santa-Claus returns to being In Character.
Sandra says, 'there is a limit on AC for eq based on slot, and material type.
So even without stat, it has limits'
Tah says, 'well, one would assume.'
Sandra says, 'it's no different with or without stats tho'
Tah says, 'that, less stats would mean the top end of the scale.'
Minotaur says, 'thats the problem you assume'
Sandra says, 'so may as well slap some stat on it :)'
Sandra says, 'that make sense?'
Tah says, 'and what're those limits, per stat? :p'
Tah says, 'er, slot.'
LadyAce says, 'they vary by the slot and the material'
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Sandra says, 'it's a big old chart thing'
Tah says, 'in other words, stop asking and move on ;)'
LadyAce says, 'kinda complicated really'
Kaige nods her agreement with Tah.
Spanish-Flea says, 'it's sandraese'
Static raises his hand.
Sandra giggles.
Tah giggles at Kaige.
Spanish-Flea says, 'the next step is to load her bow'
Sandra says, 'it's already loaded!'
Spanish-Flea says, 'and fire a warning shot, but shooting an imm instead of
you'
LadyAce points at Static.
Sandra says, 'hit you with my candy cane'
Static says, 'hey ladyace, any plans to change the gma shroud so it doesnt
scrap all the time?'
LadyAce looks up into the sky and ponders.
Static says, 'and i know its cuz all str hitters are usually killing him, but
still...'
Static says, 'since material change ive been on prolly 30 AT runs... and its
not scraped once'
LadyAce says, 'I'm willing to look at it, but it's not on my list to do
tomorrow'
Tah says to Static, 'That's kinda sad in itself.'
LadyAce says, 'it IS cloth after all'
Static says to Tah, 'What...'
Tah says to Static, '30 at runs.'
Spanish-Flea says to LadyAce, 'true, but it's stupid to get 5 con hitters,
spend 45 minutes in a run area, then run into a mob just for the shroud?'
Static says to Tah, 'That in 4 months since a change ive been on 30 AT runs?
or that i remembered the 1 time the shroud survived.'
LadyAce says, 'Sandra just gave me a good suggestion on how to change it
without much head-scratching'
Spanish-Flea says to LadyAce, 'if the razor greaves were cloth you might start
hearing similar complaints :P'
LadyAce says, 'so maybe I'll upgrade its spot on my list!'
Minotaur says, 'make it a different material?'
LadyAce says, 'cuz she rules'
LadyAce struts, hoping to get Sandra's attention.
Static says, 'could make him not wear it'
Minotaur says, 'well what is it'
Static says, 'like the horse collar'
Sandra giggles.
Kaige says, 'could beat on him iwth something else too'
Minotaur says, 'tell us the great idea'
LadyAce canna
Static says, 'yea... well i dont see myself leading an AT group with all con
and dex hitters anytime soon'
Static says, 'so...'
Spanish-Flea says, 'yes, that is just what we need, another east side PD'
Minotaur laughs.
Minotaur says, 'yea'
Minotaur raises his hand.
LadyAce says, 'anyway, I'll take a peek :)'
LadyAce points at Minotaur.
Minotaur says, 'since the North Side PD changes it really sucks and doesnt get
ran alot is that gonna be changed ever?'
Minotaur grins evilly.
Trillian raises her hand.
Tah says, 'con hitters don't hit any worse than they ever did, and dex prolly
hits the bet it has in some time. str is just overpowering.'
Sandra says, 'that'd be up to Rufus, who isnt' here atm'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Minotaur says, 'cuz people just die there now heeh'
Tah says, 'in rufus' mind, that's a good thing ;)'
Minotaur says, 'not if people dont run it'
Minotaur says, 'run areas that never ever get fully ran are kinda useless'
Tah says to Minotaur, 'You have to run it for certain things.'
Sigurd leaves east.
Tah says, 'no one runs sl, but it's still the best area on the mud, imo.'
Tah shrugs helplessly.
LadyAce says, 'if you sent him a nice & thoughtful note with your ideas, I
think that he'd listen when he has time'
Minotaur says, 'well they dont run it for a reason'
Static says, 'crusades is the best area on the mud'
Minotaur says, 'k'
Minotaur says, 'yea it is'
Spanish-Flea says, 'crusades are where the pimps ahve their bling bling
mansions'
Minotaur says, 'who built that?'
Tah says, 'how's testing going on sl2?'
Minotaur says, 'they should alot more areas'
Static points at LadyAce.
Jeffrey says, 'you guys are just kissing up to ladyace'
Jeffrey snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'why did LadyAce build cruasades?'
Tah nods his agreement with Minotaur.
Static says, 'cuz she liked the period?'
Jeffrey projects an aura of heavenly light above Minotaur's head.
Minotaur says, 'well good deal'
LadyAce says, 'yea, I'm going to have to say something rude, so I'll get told
I'm the worst imm ever'
Sandra says, 'we haven't finished SL2 testing yet unforunately. Hopefully
after theholiday'
Sandra says, 'we're abouthalf done'
Sandra says, 'Ruf's done well inventing new ways for you all to die'
Minotaur says, 'can i test it?'
Minotaur says, 'he has he really has'
Jeffrey says, 'SL2: Judgment Day'
Tah says to Sandra, 'Awww, Rufus told me we'd have it for a chirstmas present
:('
Sandra says, 'when it goes in, sure ;)'
Minotaur grins evilly.
LadyAce says, 'even better -- when it's done, you can die in it :)'
Sandra says, 'he got really busy with work for a bit, so it put us behind'
Tah nods his agreement with Sandra.
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Sandra says, 'it's way fun tho. he does good puzzles'
LadyAce nods her agreement with Sandra.
LadyAce nods her agreement with Sandra.
LadyAce nods her agreement with Sandra.
LadyAce says, 'and it needed almost NO typo fixes'
LadyAce says, 'so it should be very clean when that time comes'
Tah says to Sandra, 'Yeah, that's why i like the orig.'
Minotaur says, 'thats amazing'
Sandra nods her agreement with LadyAce.
Spanish-Flea returns to being In Character.
LadyAce says, 'and I looked hard!'
Static waves happily.
LadyAce says, 'alright, let's move along!'
LadyAce points at Trillian.
Tah heard about the sl2 testers getting slughtered.
Tah giggles.
Trillian says, 'ok this might be a stupid question...but if you use an
add-a-color on unstrung eq does it make it a string?'
LadyAce loves to be slaughtered.
Minotaur says, 'everyones gone but me!'
Trillian says, 'coupon that is'
Minotaur says, 'and trillian and tah'
LadyAce says, 'it doesn't make it a mundane'
Trillian says, 'err'
Trillian says, 'so it scraps?'
Trillian says, 'and all that?'
Sandra looks up into the sky and ponders.
Trillian says, 'and the color goes poof?'
Sandra says, 'one sec'
LadyAce says, 'hrm, that I don't know actually'
Sandra has created a cloak of sunlight!
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Minotaur says, 'make it blue'
Jeffrey snickers softly.
Tah says, 'good question.'
Sandra says, 'it should save it'
Minotaur pets a cloak of midnight lovingly.
Kaige says, 'since the imm probably uses the string command on it, I'd say
yes, it becomes strung (gets that flag added to it from the command unless
it's a zip)'
Sandra absentmindedly toys with a |11cloak of sunlight9, her lucky charm.
Sandra nods her agreement with Kaige.
Crank says, 'could you make razor greaves for a mundane?'
Sandra says, 'that's wht I was checkin'
Crank snickers softly.
Sandra eats a |11cloak of sunlight.
Trillian nods solemnly.
Trillian says, 'ok thanks!'
Minotaur says, 'well eating it doesnt help does it'
Trillian curtseys gracefully.
Sandra says, 'it was tasty'
Tah says to Crank, 'Don't think so.'
Crank says, 'feeeeh'
Trillian says, 'mmm yellow'
LadyAce says, 'the color shouldn't be lost'
Crank says, 'they did it for me before:P'
Trillian ponders her own existence - better keep an eye on her.
Jeffrey snickers softly.
LadyAce says, 'so, who else has questions?'
Crank raises his hand.
Jeffrey waves happily.
Jeffrey returns to being In Character.
LadyAce points at Crank.
Crank says, 'can an item be created for a mundane, or do you have to have it?'
Minotaur says, 'have to have it'
Tah snickers softly.
Crank says, 'i had a broken rum bottle made for me a few years ago'
Sandra says, 'you have to have it :)'
Trillian returns to being In Character.
Crank nods solemnly.
Minotaur says, 'even i knew that i should be an immortal'
Minotaur flexes his bulging, impressive muscles.
Crank says, 'wow you sound like trousers'
Sandra has created a broken rum bottle!
Crank snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'could i ever LOP since im a mob?'
Sandra eats a broken rum bottle.
Crank nibbles on Sandra's ear.
Sandra giggles.
Crank chuckles politely.
LadyAce says, 'if it's impossible for you to get, but it's eligible for
mundane, we can figure out the item you mean, though'
Crank looks up into the sky and ponders.
Crank nods solemnly.
Crank says, 'thats what i figured'
Tah says, 'hmm.'
Tah says, 'define, impossible.'
Crank says, 'greaves'
Crank slaps Tah.
Tah says, 'imppossible, alone?'
LadyAce says, '"on an immortal mob, for example"'
Crank says, 'aha'
Minotaur says, 'bah i gotta go'
LadyAce says, 'anyone else?'
LadyAce smiles happily.
Minotaur says, 'if i wanna lop could i cuz im a mob?'
Minotaur grins evilly.
Chu-LiuXiang bows before Tah.
Minotaur says, 'any thoughts?'
LadyAce says, 'if a mob steals your name, it's not YOUR fault'
LadyAce says, 'if that's what you mean'
Tah says, 'dam gear, hit gear, it's everywhere.'
Chu-LiuXiang peers at himself myopically.
Minotaur says, 'umm ok'
Sandra says, 'a mob having that name means nothing'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'well yes, but I also have 98str and 81dex'
Chu-LiuXiang chuckles politely.
Minotaur says, 'ok good deal'
Tah raises his hand.
Minotaur waves happily.
Minotaur returns to being In Character.
LadyAce points at Tah.
Tah says, 'huginn would slap me for this, but he's not here.'
Sandra says, 'I'll slap you for him'
Tah says, 'any plans to change how hit/dam shows in attributes?'
Tah waits to be slapped.
Sandra says, 'it's not high on the list of things taht need done'
Tah hugs Sandra.
Tah hugs Kaige.
Tah hugs LadyAce.
Tah slaps Kris Kringle.
Tah leaves east.
Sandra giggles.
Minotaur says, 'umm am i the only one here?'
Sandra points at Chu-LiuXiang.
Minotaur nods solemnly.
Sandra says, 'he'shere!'
Minotaur says, 'umm'
Minotaur says, 'lemme think i got a question here'
Minotaur says, 'oh yea umm if is permaing somebody against the rules?'
Minotaur says, 'just checkin before i do anything rash'
Sandra says, 'in pk?'
Minotaur says, 'yea'
Sandra says, 'it's not illegal, not advised, but not illegal'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I think you just aren't allowed to er'
Minotaur says, 'so if i perma somebody im good to go?'
Minotaur says, 'er?'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'have your benefit as the number one reason meaning'
Kaige says, 'hope they don't have friends that are bigger than you and don't
get all pissed off and return the favor'
Chu-LiuXiang looks up into the sky and ponders.
Kaige shrugs philosophically.
Sandra says, 'yea'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I was permaing larnoc at his willing request with a pile
of textbooks'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'and that got stopped'
Chu-LiuXiang sniffs sadly.
Sandra giggles.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'because it got me xp'
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
Sandra nods her agreement with Chu-LiuXiang.
Minotaur says, 'well i mean if i just didnt like somebody i dont mean for xp
hehe'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'however if you hate someone's face and are doing it for
the sheer joy of it'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I think it's alright'
Chu-LiuXiang isn't sure how they tell though...
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Sandra says, 'you have to watch for harassment as well. I will come down on
you hard for it if it's proven'
Konsekai raises his hand.
Lorenzo tries to guess the topic.
Minotaur says, 'what would be harassment?'
Minotaur says, 'if your permaing somebody'
Sandra says, 'carrying your ooc problems into the game and across chars'
LadyAce says, 'perma'ing someone because you don't like them is probably not
going to be seen as a good reason by other people'
Sandra nods her agreement with LadyAce.
Chu-LiuXiang looks up into the sky and ponders.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'isn't that usually the reason?'
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
Minotaur says to LadyAce, 'but its ok to do.'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'well barring textbooks'
Sandra says, 'it's a fine line'
Minotaur nods solemnly.
LadyAce says, 'it's ok, but it might well get you into more trouble than you
want'
Konsekai says to Minotaur, 'Yeah, but that person's buds are gonna hurt you,
most likely.'
LadyAce says, 'revenge is a bitch, and all'
Minotaur says, 'yea course'
Konsekai gasps in astonishment.
Sandra says, 'if you dislike the person oocly, you should probably not go
there'
Minotaur says to Sandra, 'but if your doing it because you dont like that char
its fine right?'
Sandra says, 'well'
Minotaur says, 'or just dont know the char and are angry?'
Sandra says, 'it's not illegal. I wouldn't say it's fine :)'
Lorenzo ponders Minotaur's existence.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'is that before or after you know the "char"'s alts?'
Chu-LiuXiang chuckles politely.
Lorenzo says to Minotaur, 'if you don't like them that much, it it really
worth so much trouble?'
Minotaur says, 'its no trouble'
Minotaur says, 'not if they keep comin on'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Sandra says, 'personally I find it more fun to kill them daily and let them
heall rather than perma them and lose outon all the fun'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'besides if you perma them they'll just pop up again like
groundhogs'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'what you can do is kill them once or twice every time they
log on'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Sandra nods her agreement with Chu-LiuXiang.
Minotaur says, 'well thats harder'
LadyAce says, 'you can ruin your own fun if you're not careful'
Minotaur says, 'well lets just say hypothetically'
Minotaur says, 'if i were to perma a GM to start a PK war'
Minotaur says, 'is that ok?'
Minotaur scuffles his feet around in the dirt.
LadyAce says, 'you might not start a pk war that way'
Sandra says, 'I've seen better ways to start a war'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'er that probably falls under the as long as it's not
harrassment. if you WANT to perma a GM to start a pk war, I think that's legal
if'
Chu-LiuXiang peers around intently.
Lorenzo grins evilly at Sandra... Wonder what he's thinking...
Minotaur says, 'k'
LadyAce says, 'it sounds like a good way for every pker in the mud to hate
you, and wipe you out of existence'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'not exactly approved of by these two big people'
Chu-LiuXiang ducks to the ground.
Minotaur snickers softly.
Sandra giggles.
Minotaur says, 'yea i suppose'
Konsekai says to Minotaur, 'So basically you're saying you wanna perma pants,
sana, or dharma?'
Chu-LiuXiang rolls around on the ground with laughter.
Minotaur nods solemnly.
LadyAce says, 'start a pk war by killing someone in a mean way and teasing
them'
Sandra says, 'hehe'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'make sure you do it with class in that case!'
Minotaur says, 'well pants doesnt count and i wont ever attack dharma'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'perma sana with a dancing sword type blow-up doll'
Chu-LiuXiang grins evilly.
Konsekai says, 'pants doesnt count?'
Minotaur says, 'nahh'
Konsekai says, 'howso?'
Minotaur says, 'because he dont'
Minotaur says, 'cuz hes my GM'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'well'
Konsekai chuckles politely.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'that would be a funny war'
LadyAce says, 'the other thing is'
Chu-LiuXiang grins evilly.
Minotaur says, 'thats just suicidal'
LadyAce says, 'threatening perma is a frequent justification for perma'
Sandra says, 'that doesn't mean anything, I killed my Gm'
Sandra giggles.
Minotaur says, 'course'
Minotaur laughs at Sandra.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'well some gms are more'
LadyAce says, 'so spraying threats around is more likely to get you perma'd by
everyone :P'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'er'
Minotaur says, 'yea but ya didnt perma them'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'understanding... than others'
Minotaur says, 'im not threatning'
Minotaur says, 'im just askin'
Minotaur says, 'i know you guys could own me :P'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I think she's trying to point out that'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'if you want to perma someone don't TELL them'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I'm going to  perma you!'
Minotaur says, 'just makin sure for the future when i know how to pk hehehe'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'just do it (and the haleybop comet will take you away)'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'yea course'
LadyAce says, 'pk works on a give and take'
LadyAce says, 'people who violate the give and take will end up perma'd,
eventually'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'not always though'
LadyAce says, 'you need enemies as much as you need friends'
Chu-LiuXiang ducks under LadyAce.
Minotaur says, 'course they will unless there really good at hideing'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'they either end up perma'd or survive long enough to grow
up'
An aura of heavenly light appears above Chu-LiuXiang's head.
Minotaur says, 'so what yer sayin is Permaing somebody will almost definetly
get you permaed but its not against the rules unless its for an ooc reason?'
LadyAce says, 'righto'
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Sandra says, 'right'
LadyAce says, 'AND we're hoping to convince you to do something that's good
for pk, rather than something that hurts it'
Sandra says, 'yea'
Minotaur says, 'oh course im not tryin to kill pk or anything'
LadyAce says, 'IF what you want to do is help make PK more active, perma is
the worst way to try to do it'
Sandra says, 'make sure you think hard on it. And that you're willing to risk
your char for it'
Minotaur nods solemnly.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'oh a tip!'
Lorenzo says, 'and the way people think of you as a player'
LadyAce says, 'then don't perma someone unless you and the rest of the mud
agree they're a menace'
Minotaur says, 'k'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'don't declare 'war' on a clan just because it has two
active members and you think they're wimps... without ever having fought both
of them'
Minotaur laughs.
Sandra giggles.
Sandra nods her agreement with Chu-LiuXiang.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'because in that case, don't whine if the 'dark horse'
comes and kills you EVERY time you show up'
Chu-LiuXiang snickers softly.
Minotaur laughs.
Sandra says, 'it's coooooooooold in here'
Minotaur says, 'make a fire'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'you're in the north pole cooking up evil, what do you
expect'
Chu-LiuXiang attempts to prod Sandra but Sandra isn't about to go anywhere.
Lorenzo says to Kris Kringle, 'turn up the heat!'
Sandra says, 'I can't, I don't have fire logs yet :)'
Minotaur waves his hands and creates some pine logs.
LadyAce says, 'yea, and wars against clans that don't have many active members
won't be good for pk either :P'
Minotaur says, 'well what is good for pk'
Konsekai says, 'grendels has some active members'
Minotaur says, 'Grendels are posers'
LadyAce says, 'being active with other people who are active'
Minotaur says, 'k eheh'
LadyAce says, 'starting rivalries'
Konsekai says, 'Whereas LoJ has like, 2 active members'
Konsekai says, 'underworld has like 4'
Minotaur says, 'loj does have only 2 actives hehe'
Minotaur says, 'underworld has 5'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'see, rivalry already'
Chu-LiuXiang ducks to the ground.
Minotaur says, 'grendels has about 4'
Konsekai says, 'pants, you, raist, ast...'
Konsekai says, 'arnic, right'
LadyAce says, 'giving people reasons to kill you (not PERMA you), and having
reasons to kill them'
Minotaur says, 'umm Anu'
Konsekai says, 'anu isn't active'
Minotaur says, 'k'
Konsekai says, 'this was his first time online in like a month'
LadyAce says, 'taking a side, believing in something, behaving with some honor
and with some bloodthirstyness'
Minotaur says, 'why cant i used coupons i steal in pk'
Minotaur says, 'i should be able to'
Konsekai says, 'Because that would be horribly gay, beyond all belief'
Minotaur says, 'no it wouldnt'
Konsekai says, 'and you'd get raped inside out'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'because rowane would become a coupon distributor'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'do you know he keeps forgetting to put his coupons in
bags?'
LadyAce says, 'steal isn't a coupon factory, it's a way to get people
interacting with each other'
Minotaur says, 'people can steal my weapon and drop it in the water and it
sinks i wanna be able to use there coupons when im pissed off'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'and then he runs away from people after they steal them
for fun and try to return them'
Chu-LiuXiang sniffs sadly.
Konsekai says, 'coupons are a LOT different than a weapon'
Minotaur says, 'but permaing is the only way to use there coupons is what im
gettin at'
Minotaur says, 'yea they are hehe'
LadyAce says, 'earn your own darn coupons :P'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'er you want to perma people to use their coupons?'
Konsekai nods his agreement with LadyAce.
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
Minotaur says, 'but i suck at games'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'it's easier to just buy them!'
Sandra says, 'that's gotta be the dumbest reason I've ever heard. Sorry :)'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'and it makes more people happy'
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
Lorenzo looks at Minotaur, boggled.
Minotaur laughs.
Sandra says, 'I should give you a prize for that'
Minotaur says, 'ya should'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'a coupon!'
Minotaur rolls around on the ground with laughter.
Lorenzo says to Minotaur, 'you want to perma someone so you can use stolen
items?'
LadyAce says, 'oh boy'
Minotaur nods his agreement with Lorenzo.
Minotaur laughs.
Lorenzo says, 'I fear for the future of mankind'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'well that's not exactly harrassment is it? wow that guy
has cool stuff'Minotaur snickers softly.
LadyAce says, 'that's not a good reason.'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I want to perma him for it'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'that's quite reasonable'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
Minotaur says, 'well its a good reason'
Minotaur ducks to the ground.
Axis says, 'did I miss anything?'
Sandra says, 'if I had  a lame weanie post title, it'd be all your s;)'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'definitely character based, what can I say'
Chu-LiuXiang grins evilly.
Sandra giggles.
Minotaur snickers softly.
Sandra ruffles Minotaur's hair playfully.
Konsekai says, 'haha, my stomach just gurgled and it freaked my dog out'
Axis flexes his bulging, impressive muscles.
Minotaur says, 'take lorenzo and his parrot for example'
Lorenzo says to Minotaur, 'hello.'
Minotaur says, 'i could only use it if he were permanently dead'
Minotaur says, 'i wouldnt do that cuz lorenzos cool but just sayin'
Lorenzo laughs.
Lorenzo poses attractively and models a |2squawking |10g|2r|10e|2e|10n
|2parrot.
LadyAce says, 'the right way to get a coupon is to earn it or buy it'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'um just bear in mind'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'people with coupons on their pkillers OR strings'
Minotaur says, 'but the easiet way is to perma somebody'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'can usually defend them'
Chu-LiuXiang chortles with amusement.
LadyAce says, 'you can earn money, you can make typo reports, and you can
write for the LT, don't have to be good at games'
Lorenzo says, 'you wouldn't want it anyway, it's made of old parrot feathers,
so can't be mended'
Minotaur says, 'hrmm write for LT aye?'
Minotaur says, 'you get stuff for that?'
Sandra says, 'token'
Lorenzo says to Minotaur, 'pink tokens.'
Minotaur says, 'good deal'
Minotaur says, 'ill have to do that'
Minotaur laughs.
Minotaur says, 'hrmm now what to write'
Minotaur laughs.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'or you could just earn money and bid on auction'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'coupons do come up'
Minotaur says, 'i cant earn money'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'why not?'
Minotaur says, 'because i suck hehehe'
Minotaur says, 'really i do'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'earning money is a LOT'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'easier than permaing someone'
Chu-LiuXiang ducks to the ground.
Minotaur says, 'no its not'
Sandra nods her agreement with Chu-LiuXiang.
Chu-LiuXiang says, '(unwillingly)'
Sandra says, 'yes it is'
Minotaur says, 'not in the slightest bit easier'
Lorenzo says, 'well, the side-effects are a lot easier on your corpse'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Chu-LiuXiang chortles at Lorenzo's feeble witticism.
Minotaur says, 'true very true'
Minotaur says, 'well ill just write for LT'
Minotaur says, 'get me 5 tokens today!'
LadyAce shakes her head.
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'shake?'
LadyAce says, 'I just can't believe it :) it's really not the way to get
coupies'
LadyAce ruffles Minotaur's hair playfully.
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'but its a smart goat thinkin way to go about it'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I think you should write an LT article about the pros and
cons about permaing people for coupons'
Sandra says, 'not so much'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'that would be great!'
Sandra giggles.
Chu-LiuXiang is serious.
Minotaur says, 'ok i will'
Chu-LiuXiang cheers for Minotaur - huzzah!
Lorenzo says to Minotaur, 'i'll grant that it's clever, but I'm not sure about
smart.'
Minotaur says, 'ill write 5 and get me 5 tokens for the machine'
Lorenzo grins evilly.
Minotaur says, 'ok clever'
Kaige says, 'be sure to write it in character if you want a token for it'
Minotaur says, 'ok'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'ah. editorial ooc types don't get tokens?'
Chu-LiuXiang is just asking.
Kaige says, 'pretty much. yeah.'
Lorenzo says, 'it's for rp pieces, right?'
Chu-LiuXiang nods solemnly.
Minotaur says, 'how many articles can i write per LT?'
Kaige says, 'rp and pk write ups'
Lorenzo says, 'ah, right'
Kaige says to Minotaur, 'I try to limit it to one per alt.'
Minotaur says, 'ahh'
Minotaur says, 'darn'
Minotaur snickers softly.
Minotaur says, 'so a token a week?'
Konsekai raises his hand.
Lorenzo says, 'five weeks, five tokens, five alts, 25 prizes'
Minotaur laughs.
Konsekai stomps around.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'and enough writing to make your head explode'
Konsekai says, 'can we move on? :P'
Minotaur says, 'but i only got 1 other alt and hes lvl 7 heheh'
Axis says, 'and a lot more wrist cramps :p'
Minotaur says, 'so i cant do 5 a week :P'
LadyAce says, 'let's get Konsekai's question :)'
LadyAce points at Konsekai.
Minotaur says, 'ok Konsekai!'
Lorenzo snickers softly.
Konsekai says, 'yes.  Why doesnt the midwife in romania sell bandaids?  I
mean.. she's a midwife an all.'
Minotaur says, 'ahh good question'
Axis nods his agreement with Konsekai.
Minotaur says, 'she really should'
Axis give idea points to Konsekai
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'they're going to chirp "idea" all in a row'
Chu-LiuXiang ducks to the ground.
Konsekai says, 'Romania is my favorite area.  I hate walking to klein to get
bandaids :P'
Axis nods his agreement with Chu-LiuXiang.
Kaige says to Chu-LiuXiang, 'Nope.'
Minotaur says, 'you dont have to go to klien'
Chu-LiuXiang sniffs sadly at Kaige.
Minotaur laughs.
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'no chirping?'
Kaige says, 'there's a very good reason for it... has somethign to do with
supply and demand'
Konsekai says, 'who sells them, then?'
Minotaur raises his hand.
Konsekai says, 'But she's a midwife!'
Konsekai says, 'she should sell bandaids!'
Minotaur says, 'umm the weaver sells em'
Kaige says, 'yup, so I imagine that she'd be demanding them quite a bit'
Konsekai says, 'wait, when was there a weaver in romania'
Minotaur says, 'dang it i forgot my question lemme think'
Konsekai grumbles.
Konsekai returns to being In Character.
Minotaur says, 'gimme a sec it was a really really good question'
Minotaur says, 'bah i cant remember dern'
LadyAce says, 'but you don't get coupons for good questions!'
Minotaur says, 'oh yea i know'
Minotaur says, 'yea i know'
Chu-LiuXiang snorts with laughter.
Minotaur says, 'umm should bandage be known by everybody'
Chu-LiuXiang blinks.
Minotaur says, 'i mean its bandage who doesnt know how to bandage'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I don't'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'if you were bleeding to death'
Kaige says, 'the people who chose not to?'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'on my floor'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I'd uh'
Minotaur says, 'if you bleeding to death use a turnicut'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'I'd probably do silly things like stuff you with a pillow'
Chu-LiuXiang says, '(honestly)'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'ah, but I don't know how to make tourniquets'
Minotaur says, 'or turnikit or whatever'
Chu-LiuXiang says, '(truly)'
Minotaur says, 'yes you do'
Chu-LiuXiang shakes his head.
Chu-LiuXiang has no idea.
Minotaur says, 'ok well slapping a peice of cloth on blood isnt obvious?'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'hm it's not quite as simple as that is it?'
Minotaur says, 'cuz thats generally what it does isnt it'
Chu-LiuXiang really doesn't know.
Minotaur says, 'yes it is'
Minotaur says, 'you tie a peice of cloth on the wound'
LadyAce says, 'it's not like you cut yourself shaving'
Minotaur says, 'i know'
LadyAce says, 'someone stabbed you with a knife and it's gushing'
Minotaur says, 'yea'
Minotaur says, 'but you use cloth bandages for it'
Sandra says, 'slapping a cloth on there wouldn't quite do the trick alone'
Minotaur says, 'ok well its not bandageing then its first aid :P'
Minotaur ducks to the ground.
Konsekai says, 'Mino, there's no weaver in romania.'
Minotaur says, 'theres one IN TARA'
Chu-LiuXiang says, 'he was talking about romania'
Chu-LiuXiang ponders Minotaur's existence.
Minotaur says, 'go to the falcon in maybe they sell em i dunno'
Konsekai says, 'romania is in medi, you tool'
LadyAce says, 'alright, anyone else have questions?'
Minotaur says, 'oh'
Minotaur laughs.
Minotaur says, 'thought you ment roman brition'
Minotaur laughs.
Minotaur says, 'ahh romania hahah'
Konsekai says, 'dope.'
Konsekai whaps Minotaur across the back of the head - your ears ring in
sympathy.
Kaige says, 'the reason you get 4 practs at level 1 instead of just one, is so
you can pick which skills your character starts out with --- not everyone
might choose bandaging'
Kaige shrugs philosophically.
Konsekai says, 'Can i continue mine?'
Konsekai says, 'i still have a beef with no bandaids in romania'
Minotaur says, 'k'
LadyAce says to Konsekai, 'Sorry :) continue!'
Konsekai says, 'It's just a pain'
Konsekai says, 'because it's a great area for idling/healing, but if you're
bleeding'
Konsekai says, 'and have lowbie moves, klien is far away'
LadyAce says, 'makebandage is handy for times like that'
Minotaur says, 'it is'
Minotaur says, 'i have that skill it owns'
Kaige says, 'sounds like a good reason to a) know how to make your own, b)
know someone who makes their own and c) carry some with you.'
Konsekai says, 'not everyone can learn makebandage'
Minotaur pets a roll of bandages lovingly.
