Sandra points at Trousers. Trousers says, 'skip me :P' Sandra giggles. Sandra points at Lust. Galahad raises his hand. Lust says, 'oh' Chaykin chuckles politely. Chaykin looks at the welcome board. Lust says, 'so what's the story with so many imms going inactive at once' Chaykin reads message #44 on the welcome board. Chaykin says, 'ooh surprise' Sandra says, 'Kaige's post explains her stepping down truthfully' Hebe says, 'and others coming back.' Lust says, 'we're talking about staff changes :P' Sandra says, 'as for the others leaving' Tarah looks at the welcome board. Galahad pokes a fancy seat. Hebe looks at the welcome board. Hebe reads message #44 on the welcome board. Lenore looks at the welcome board. Lenore reads message #44 on the welcome board. Lenore gasps in astonishment. Quagmire looks at the welcome board. Quagmire reads message #44 on the welcome board. Sandra says, 'various disagreements between the staff have never been something that is a secret. People that work together for a long time on something they all value alot will fight for what they think is right' Sandra says, 'over time, those fights make ya tired' Vanion smiles happily. LadyAce nods her agreement with Sandra. Sandra says, 'I can't tell you specifically why they left, because I'm not them. But I can tell you generally that what I just said is the cause' Lust says, 'so what exactly were the issues that had you guys all so angry?' Lust peers around intently. Hebe raises her hand. Lust whistles innocently to herself. Vanion joins Galahad's group. Vanion says, 'wha?' Sandra says, 'we argued over lots of things :)' Lust says, 'okay! i'm done.' Lust salutes Sandra briskly. Why don't people obey YOU like that? Galahad says, 'Examples?' LadyAce says, 'there wasn't one big blowup or something' Sandra nods her agreement with LadyAce. Quagmire says, 'details! *pkill popcorn*' Sandra says, 'lots of little ones over time' Lust says, 'just one suggestion: merge pr/admin and coding/building. your staff isn't big enough for four departments now!' Sandra giggles. Quagmire says, 'they made do with like 6 imms to begin with' Vanion says, 'depends on how much certain people can handle responsibility wise' Quagmire says, 'they got at laest double that now' Vanion says, 'if everyone was the same i would agree, but it varies' Sandra says, 'ok, lets move on to other questions. I don't wanna get behind' Chaykin says, 'all of Legend's original creators are gone now, iirc'

______

Sandra points at Chaykin. Quagmire says, 'yeah, taking care if the areas that kaige maintains will be brutal' Vanion says, 'but the legend lives on...' Vanion smiles at Chaykin. Lust looks at the welcome board. Lust reads message #40 on the welcome board. Chaykin says to Sandra, 'Kaige's post mentions health problems, is she okay?' Hebe says, 'wasn't Rufus an original?' Vanion says, 'yea can we can a rl update on her?' Vanion says, 'er get' Chaykin says, 'Rufus wasn't original' Lust says, 'kaige said she'd be maintaining her areas though right?' Sandra says, 'Kaige has had problems with high blood pressure for some time. She is concentrating on getting that under better control, and we all hope that she is able to do that quickly' LadyAce says, 'we really will miss her' Sandra nods her agreement with Lust. Vanion says, 'no im talking more rl, the way it came off, is she seriously ill?' Chaykin nods his agreement with Sandra. Lenore nods solemnly.

Somar nods his agreement with Sandra. Vanion nods solemnly.

Galahad says, 'Are all the changes coming on monday a surprise or have some of the more mundane issues been addressed in the update' Sandra says, 'they're all a surprise :)' Galahad says, 'I'm talking about things like the stun, the retreat and so on' Lust says, 'and give out weekly progress reports on boards, like 'this immortal did this' ... please :p' Somar cheers for Huginn - huzzah! Lust says, 'yeah, it'll look like a 'i'm working and you're not' board, but i'm mostly interested in seeing what eveyon'es working on' Quagmire squeezes Huginn fondly. Hebe tickles Huginn. Lust says, 'if they're working' Galahad jumps in the air and slams a thunderous high-5 with Huginn! Lust shrugs philosophically. Lust says, 'i don't care, i'm just interested :P' Isam looks at the welcome board. Chaykin grins evilly at Huginn... Wonder what he's thinking... Isam reads message #44 on the welcome board. Sandra says, 'ask 'em! We like to brag' Lenore smiles at Huginn. Lust says, 'you're never vis' Lust says, 'well... some of you aren't' Trousers nods his agreement with Lust. Quagmire says, 'yes they are' Somar says, 'some of us work on secret stuff in underground bunkers far away from the prying eyes of civilization' Hebe says to Lust, 'She's been vis since kaige left.' Hebe snickers softly. Quagmire says, 'i've inferred sandra cant PK while she's vis at laest twice today' Lenore scuffles dirt onto Somar's shoes. Chaykin says to Somar, 'Which is exactly where board.c is best left.' Sandra giggles. Lust says to Hebe, 'EXCLUDING certain people of course :P' Lust says to Hebe, 'Pay attention.' Lust spanks Hebe playfully. Hebe bonks Lust on the head! Sandra says, 'we think that you will all enjoy the stuff that agoes in' Sandra says, 'we've sure worked hard on it!' Tarah looks at the welcome board. Quagmire says, 'skilltrees!' Chaykin says, 'is it Rufus's secret stuff?' Tarah reads message #44 on the welcome board.

Hebe says, 'don't tease us :p' Quagmire says, 'skilltrees!' Somar broke plenty of stuff himself. Lust says to Sandra, 'Just hope it's really fixed now.' Lust snickers softly. Sandman raises his hand. Somar says, 'I think I broke the dark lord with one of my changes.' Sandra giggles. Isam frowns at Somar. Galahad says to Somar, 'but Fionn is ok?' Isam says, 'bad somar!'

______

Sandra points at Hebe. Ghengis says, 'guppie' Somar says to Galahad, 'I sure am.' Hebe says, 'oh.' Galahad nods his agreement with Somar. Hebe says, 'can you explain how this vote is gonna work, i mean are dept head votes worth more than say, Somar's vote?' Hebe says to Somar, 'Not to pick on you ;)' Sandra says, 'yes they are weighted. And no, Rufus and I won't be voting :)' Chaykin says, 'Fionn could never actually exist again, there's too many imm rules now' Somar says to Hebe, 'I know I'm worthless ;)' LadyAce says, 'something-for every one in the update' Hebe nods her agreement with Sandman. Hebe points at Sandra. Lenore cheers for LadyAce - huzzah! Ghengis raises his hand. Hebe says, 'good enough for me ;)' Sandra smiles happily. Galahad says, 'Can we play 20 questions with the update?'

______

Sandra points at Ghengis. Quagmire nods his agreement with Galahad. Sandra says, 'no :)' Hebe says to Somar, 'You're my second fav imm tho!' Chaykin says, 'is it bigger than a breadbasket?' Somar says, 'you can play with each other' Somar says, 'but there's going to be no imm involvement ;)' Chaykin gasps in astonishment. Chaykin says, 'is it bigger than a breadtangle?' Chaykin ponders a breadtangle of pizza's existence. LadyAce giggles at Chaykin. Ghengis says, 'with a shift in head imp and so many imms going inactive (can only assume one side has left from the two sided battle) can we expect the mud to take on a new feel over the next year? head in a different direction?' Isam says, 'the mud heads in a direction?' Isam is completely boggled. Somar says to Isam, 'Northeasterly, mostly.' Sandra says, 'there will be a lot of things that we need to review. Whoever is the new imp(s), there is a big job ahead' Isam says to Somar, 'on the trade winds?' Sandra says, 'I wish I could say more than that, but right now, we're really just concentrating on the staff stuff' Ghengis nods solemnly. Quagmire says to Sandra, 'you're cloning marauder and putting him in every in, thats the update, isnt it.' Sandra giggles. Somar says to Quagmire, 'Damn, you pegged it.' Chaykin says, 'I would bet they prolly don't really know much about what will happen, a new imp hasn't been done in um...a decade :P' Somar says, 'errr.. I mean...' Hebe says to Quagmire, 'Hush, he's back now, doin't ruin it!' Sandra nods her agreement with Chaykin. Galahad says, 'Is it old clan halls?' Galahad ducks to the ground. Sandra says, 'other questions about this stuff?' Trousers looks at the welcome board. Trousers reads message #44 on the welcome board. Ghengis says, 'I just get the feeling, and my words are not right but that finally one side has won, now we see the results, but thats not really how I want to put it' Lust says, 'well, i wondered about kae actually, is she also having any sorts of health problems?' Huginn says, 'I don't think anyone was defeated' Sandra says, 'Kae went inactive when Cheyla did' Huginn says, 'that would be inaccurate' Ghengis says, 'no, and I did say those words were not right' Trousers says, 'Who's maintaining the inferno, now that kae is gone?' Huginn says, 'people come, people go..' Huginn says, 'and sometimes people with the same views and desires go at the same time' Huginn shrugs helplessly. Ghengis says, 'who can blame kae for leaving, so many people dumped on years of her work' Sandra says, 'right now, all of that stuff is on hold. We'll assign tasks once we have the staff all situated again' Lust says, 'i think you mean kae left with chco' Lust peers around intently. Sandra shakes her head. Lust says, 'cheyla left ages and ages ago?' Quagmire says to Ghengis, 'you speak like it wasnt deserved.' LadyAce says, 'everyone who left recently went inactive-not retired' Sandra says, 'Kae went inactive in October' Lust says, 'ahhhh' Hebe says, 'right when hell was finished?' Sandra nods solemnly. LadyAce says, 'some may opt to return' Ghengis says, 'legenders have a tendancy to be over brutal' Ghengis shrugs helplessly. Isam says, 'so if your zone gets critized...learn from it and change' Isam says, 'thats no reason to leave' Sandman still hasnt even seen inferno.. Tarah rolls her eyes heavenward. Isam says, 'so i doubt that was why' Galahad says to Ghengis, 'true, but Carthage didn't get bad reviews.' Lust says, 'administer psychological tests before imming anyone' Chaykin says, 'I think the reaction to inferno was a little savage :P' Lust says, 'don't want anymore crazies on staff' Lust peers around intently. Hebe says, 'inferno is kinda neat, actually.' Trousers says, 'yeah, Kae worked pretty hard on an area that's run about once every 2 months' Quagmire says, 'there are neat bits' Chaykin says to Galahad, 'Carthage didn't have the memory of an older area that it was replacing.' Hebe says, 'kae's sense of humour really shows in it.' Lenore nods her agreement with Chaykin. Quagmire says, 'the entire area is like a DT' Sandman says, 'someone really needs to take me on a run there..' Galahad says, 'I have to say 'Hell' as an area has a very interesting track record... if you think about it, the area of Hell was always a trouble-maker, befitting really' Talia nods her agreement with Sandman. Isam says, 'yes but' Talia says to Sandman, 'i havent been in either.' Santina returns to being In Character. Isam says, 'it is so time wasting' Hebe says to Sandman, 'It can be longish.' Quagmire says to Galahad, 'start more rhetoric and I backstab.' Chaykin says, 'I've been all the way through hell twice and it wasn't bad either time as long as you prepare' Isam says, 'lots of time doing absolutely nothing' Trousers says, 'especially if the second boatman bugs' Chaykin says, 'the second time I was in and out in like half an hour' Quagmire says to Chaykin, 'you didnt get a random agg mob flip on your and get killed.' Isam says to Chaykin, 'and you have a book to read irl.' Galahad says to Chaykin, 'that's impossible because the boat ride is half an hour.' Sandra says, 'other questions about the staff stuff?' Quagmire nods his agreement with Galahad. Isam nods his agreement with Galahad. Sandman says, 'no need to go bashin it im just sayin would be nice to see it dang ppl =p' Ghengis says, 'any new skills in the update?' Sandra says, 'not saying :)' Ghengis tugs on Sandra's sleeve imploringly. Sandra giggles. Ghengis pouts. Somar says, 'the details of the update are to be a surprise ;)' Chaykin raises his hand. Hebe says to Sandra, 'Yer mean.' Sandra says, 'surprises, all of it!' Somar nods his agreement with Sandra.

______

Sandra points at Chaykin. Ghengis says, 'come on, thats not giving us much' LadyAce bounces around. Chaykin says, 'is one of the surprises that the button in Carthage is finally fixed?' Chaykin ducks to the ground. Sandra giggles. Isam says, 'it is fixed already' Isam pats Chaykin on the head. Chaykin says, 'it crashed the mud as recently as 4 days ago' Ghengis says, 'just pre warn us, to save pracs is all :)' Lenore nods solemnly. Isam says, 'save pracs anyways...' Sandra says, 'it did? that's a new one. it's been workin' Galahad says, 'I was going to waste all my pracs on sunday' Hebe says to Ghengis, 'It's uh, 4 days.' Lenore says, 'i bugged it!' Ghengis says, 'work with me people' Chaykin says to Lenore, 'What day was it that you crashed with it?' Sandman says, 'well there goes any ideas i had til i see whats going on monday =p' Sandra says, 'ok, on to general questions. Got any?' Quagmire raises his hand.

______

Sandra points at Quagmire. Lenore says, 'err i don't remember' Trousers returns to being In Character. Lenore looks up into the sky and ponders. Quagmire says, 'ok, about new shoot' Quagmire says, 'just a few comments' Quagmire says, 'it's nice' Hebe looks at Quagmire and drools. Quagmire says, 'from my point of view' Hebe says to Quagmire, 'It still stuns alot.' Galahad raises his hand. Quagmire says, 'but i dont think it addresses something a lot of snipers still cant compete with' Quagmire says, 'which is being stuck in a room, either via a bash or a staggering headbutt' Quagmire says, 'the disorient worked well both times a fight a druid' Galahad says to Quagmire, 'have you lost since the changes?' Sana raises her hand. Quagmire slaps Sana. Sandman throws his head back and cackles gleefully! Talia peers at Sana, looking her up and down. Sana pokes Talia in the ribs. Talia attempts to prod Sana but Sana isn't about to go anywhere. Somar says to Sana, 'You're out of your element, donnie.' Ghengis says, 'ohh, the changes are you getting rid of pkok? wow :P' Huginn says, 'snipers getting pinned in a room is a problem' Quagmire says, 'it always has been, but i dont there there are too many ways out' Huginn says, 'but I don't have a magic bullet to change that' Huginn nods solemnly. Huginn says, 'hope your luck holds' Hebe says, 'shooting while bashed would uh, help.' Isam says, 'what' Isam says, 'are you people crazy' Hebe says, 'since you can shoot a gun while sitting.' Huginn shakes his head in disagreement. Isam says, 'snipers dont need help, they are good' Isam glares at nothing in particular. Somar says, 'just ask LA for a new gun ;) that'll help you out dramatically' Somar ducks to the ground. Hebe says to Isam, 'Till they get bashed.' Isam says to Hebe, '2 rounds, oh no.' Sandra laughs. Hebe hugs an oaken bow. Isam says to Hebe, 'you eat 2 rounds when you get a long backstab lag.' Quagmire nods his agreement with Somar. Sandra says, 'everyone is good until they get bashed ;)' Quagmire says, 'also' Quagmire says, 'on the sniper thing' Sana says, 'im good no matter what happens' Quagmire says, 'what happened to backstabs' Galahad says, 'Ya why didn't LA's 'gun' thing not make it to the expie bug things?' Quagmire says, 'just in general the paras dont last long at all' Galahad rolls his eyes, exasperated with Quagmire. Quagmire says, 'it's bs round bs (maybe another round)' Huginn says, 'the para length hasn't been changed' Galahad says, 'I keep telling you, it's all chance' Hebe says to Quagmire, 'I get like 5 on mobs.' Galahad says, 'Mobs get everything longer' Huginn nods solemnly. Quagmire says, 'mobs arent the problem, it's PK' Hebe nods solemnly. Huginn says, 'mobs take longer stuns' Quagmire says, 'although mobs with that headshot thing---priceless' LadyAce says, 'not enough noms for my bug!' LadyAce says, 'too bad for me!' Isam raises his hand. Chaykin says, 'I still cannot believe fastcommands got completely snubbed for coding awards' Galahad says to LadyAce, 'i did.' Huginn says, 'so the fix for the snipe bug will be going in' Hebe nods her agreement with Chaykin. Hebe nods her agreement with Chaykin. Hebe nods her agreement with Chaykin. Galahad says, 'that's it, the surprise is ruined' Hebe says to Chaykin, 'Playing a surgeon is actually bearable now.' Quagmire nods his agreement with Galahad. Somar comforts Huginn. Somar says to Huginn, 'How did you let them know about that?' Lust says, 'fix for snipe bug?' Lust peers around intently. LadyAce says, 'on tablt so I speak Ladyace table-lese sorry for so terseness' Trousers blinks at LadyAce. Talia peers at LadyAce, looking her up and down. Sandra says, 'did we answer the question?' Galahad says, 'SHe's speaking in tongues' Talia says, 'was that English?' Sandra says, 'she's on a tablet' Sandra says, 'in class' Sandra giggles. LadyAce says, 'yah!' Hebe nudges an oaken bow over a few inches. Talia says, 'ooh' Isam says to Talia, 'no, it was table-eese, didnt you see.' Isam says, 'although' Talia says, 'thanks for translating' Galahad says, 'table-less' Talia ponders her own existence - better keep an eye on her. Isam says, 'I can do better than that on a Pocket PC' Isam says, ':>' Talia says, 'sorry couldnt see thorugh all the mush to get to the table-eese' Sandra giggles. Sandra says, 'ok,lets move on then'

______

Sandra points at Sana. Galahad says, 'I was before sana' LadyAce says, 'handwriting recognition toes not know legend words-and this is stupidW indows too' Sandra says, 'doh you were' Sandra says to Sana, 'Hold on :)' Sandra points at Galahad. Sana says, 'my question was wasnt galahad first anyways' Sana says, 'well not really' Sandra giggles. Sana takes off, dashing east. Galahad says, 'ok, two parter' Sana stops, realizing she can't go that way. Galahad says, 'firstly, Does the gun still not affect the stun-chance' Galahad says, 'Because I know some people who can't stun in like 30 shots, not using the sure-shot' Galahad says, 'Is it just bad luck?' Somar needs to go! Somar gives a big hug to everyone in the room. Huginn nods solemnly. Galahad waves to Somar. Huginn says, 'it is' Sana pushes a pink tutu over pink leotards closer to Sandra. Sandra giggles at Sana. Tarah returns to being In Character. Huginn says, 'well let me rephrase..' Galahad nods solemnly. Huginn says, 'an accurate gun will help you get a better shot' Galahad nods solemnly. Huginn says, 'which can give you a better chance at a para' Sandman says, 'same with bows?' Huginn says, 'but its not an extreme shift' Huginn nods solemnly. Galahad says, 'you mean stun' Sana says, 'i have no idea whats being said but i just wanna throw in that i fought drow and he was shooting for 15 damage' Huginn says, 'anything with an accuracy rating' Galahad chuckles politely. Huginn says, 'yeah stun' Galahad says, 'Ok second thing' Lust says, 'taking applications for shooters who wanna test stun and gun accuracy later' Galahad says, 'I have tested shooting hand... it really won't work' Lust chortles with amusement. Lust says, 'nevermind' Galahad says, 'But if I were to shoot hand in a fight it won't shoot it out' Galahad says, 'even once in like 30 shots' Quagmire strokes the little sure-shot. Quagmire strokes Lust's ....*blush* Quagmire nods his agreement with Galahad. Sandra says, 'I think it's something we'll have to look into' Huginn looks up into the sky and ponders. Huginn says, 'yup' Huginn says, 'have to look at that one' Huginn says, 'might be an easy fix' Sandra smiles happily. Galahad nods his agreement with Huginn.

______

Sandra points at Sana. Sana says, 'climb+wall of stone=crap' Sana says, 'my question is' Trousers raises his hand. Huginn waits for it. Sana says, 'is anything being loocked into about dash making you able to dash in and out automatically to doge firestorms?' Galahad laughs. Isam laughs. Galahad says, 'That's be bad' Quagmire says to Sana, 'dex skill.' Sana says, 'if i can run that fdast dodging something puny like that should be no problem' Galahad says, 'bad-ass' Huginn says, 'no' Huginn says, 'next question?' Sana raises her hand. Sandra giggles. Trousers pokes himself in the ribs. Trousers raises his hand. Huginn says, 'next question that isn't sana' Isam says, 'i raised my hand a while back' Sandra giggles.

______

Sandra points at Isam. Isam says, 'alright' Sana raises her hand. Sana raises her hand. Isam says, 'stun' Sana pointedly ignores Huginn. Bit chilly in here, eh what? Isam says, 'any chance of changes to stun? there are 2 major reasons why using it is terrible right now' Isam says, 'first' Isam says, 'when it doesn't wfw, you get 1 stunned hit, then they wake up and attack, unlike headbutt, where you get a free round every single last time' Sana says, 'I heard satire made you immune to stun, look into that' Isam says, 'i have yet to see stun give just a free round' Isam says, 'second, wfws' Galahad raises his hand. Quagmire says to Isam, 'you're right cause mages need help.' Quagmire says to Isam, 'they're soo poor, deprived and underpoewred.' Isam says, 'right now, the lag on wfw is so bad that if you wfw you can't do anything, until the round after they wake up' Lust says, 'sounds like the exact thing we talked about last week' Lust giggles. Huginn nods solemnly. Isam says, 'so they get to bash, or headbutt, or flee, or whatever' Huginn says, 'that was the goal' Isam says, 'unlike headbutt' Huginn says, 'the wfw part' Isam says, 'headbutt daze is 2 rounds of lag, so a headbutter can 1- flee before you wake up, 2 - headbutt you again before you wake up' Quagmire says, 'if you put skills in, you've get the equivalent of a para change from a mage without the tick lag' Isam says, 'leading to potential chains of dazes that you cannot stop' Huginn says, 'yo can't headbutt while stunned' Sana says, 'as your waking up!' Sana says, 'you can spam it' Isam says, 'you don't understand' Galahad says, 'They are already stunned!' Isam says, 'wfw = can't do anything, they wake up do whateer' Huginn says, 'I do understand actually' Huginn nods solemnly. Isam says, 'daze = you unlag the same time they wake up' Huginn says, 'yup' Isam says, 'so' Sana says, 'he dont care! :p' Isam says, 'my suggestion' Huginn says, 'dazes are a lot more rare than wfw' Huginn says, 'and last longer' Isam says, 'so is there any chance of stun vs headbutt being changed?' Isam says to Quagmire, 'create has stun too.' Galahad says, 'may I add something' Isam says to Quagmire, 'so shut up.' Huginn says, 'yeah I have to do that change to headbutt' Galahad says, 'It was going to be my question but on the topic' Huginn says, 'to reduce stun based on large damage' Huginn says, 'other than that, no' LadyAce says to Isam, 'Be nice.' Quagmire says to LadyAce, 'shush :P' Isam says to LadyAce, 'heavens no!' Sana says, 'fight fight fight!' Quagmire says to Isam, 'make me.' Talia returns to being In Character. Galahad says, 'Is it, or is it not true that you can use skills during wfw now?' Isam says to Galahad, 'you cannot.' Lust nods her agreement with Sana. Galahad says, 'Wrong, Isam' Huginn says, 'not true' Galahad says, 'and I have proof' Isam says, 'Well' Isam says, 'ok' Isam says, 'you could not last time i tried' Galahad says, 'I WFWed 3 Klein guards and I kicked each of them before they woke up' LadyAce says, 'I can still spell glue:) Rude spam doesn't belong here' Trousers returns to being In Character. Galahad says, 'What do you say to that?' Huginn says, 'hmm well for mobs, might be possible' Isam says, 'ok well that helps make a decision, thanks' Galahad 1, Lies 0. Galahad ducks to the ground. Sandra says, 'did we answer it for you?' Galahad says, 'ya, i'm cool' Isam says, 'my question was answered' Sandra smiles happily.

______

Sandra points at Sana. Huginn says, 'well gotta go' Isam laughs. Huginn snickers softly. Sandra giggles. Chaykin waves to Huginn. Sana says, 'so, any thought being put into making just climb i mean just fly whore wlls?' Sana peers around intently. Lust waves to Huginn. Sana says, 'or raising the reqs on climb' Huginn says, 'no' Huginn says, 'next question?' Sana says, 'why?' Sana raises her hand. Sana says, 'why?' Huginn says, 'next question that isn't sana' Galahad raises his hand. Huginn says, 'ok kidding' Talia says, 'haha sana, you should have other people ask your questions for you' Sana says to Isam, 'say why.' Talia says, 'you just get shot down automatically' Huginn says, 'what I might do is raise the lag when you flee over a wall' Talia says, 'anywho gotta go' Talia says, 'later folks' Sandman hugs Talia. Lust says to Huginn, 'I like the sound of that.' Talia joins Galahad's group. Galahad hugs Talia. Static says, 'so its solely huginn's decision... what do other imms think?' Talia gives Galahad a great big smooch! Huginn says, 'but no I am not going to give you back your sure kill crap' Huginn says, 'you don't need it' Sana says, 'but i like having it!' Huginn shrugs in response to Sana's words. Sana says, 'besides anyone can get a fly vial' Sana says, 'thats not hard' Huginn says, 'and you can dispel it' Huginn says, 'good for you' Galahad says, 'HOW? WHERE?' Sana says, 'and right now anyone can learn climb, thats impossible for me' Quagmire says, 'FLY VIAL? OMFG!' Sandra says, 'I like the increased lag idea.' Isam says, 'blind = sure kill crap = vial fixable' Galahad wants a fly vial. Isam says, 'how is that different from walls' Lust peers at Quagmire, looking him up and down. Quagmire wants Lust, he needs her, he's got to have her! Galahad says, 'If I hear one more blind remark I'm slaying you all.' LadyAce has created a fly! Sana says, 'blind cheats' Galahad pokes a fly in the ribs. LadyAce has created a glass vial! Quagmire says, 'blind blind blind' Sana says, 'so what about the mana cost on wall' Quagmire says, 'steal skilltre sandra' Sandra giggles. LadyAce peers intently at a glass vial. Lenore snickers at LadyAce nastily. Sana says, 'its not realistic to assume a creates gonna premake everything then rest' Sana says, 'and if they do they get booed' LadyAce says, 'class over:)' Huginn laughs at Sana. Quagmire says, 'thats what you do in fights when you had wall dude' Sana says, 'and called a habeeb' Huginn says, 'oh yes. booing' Sandman says to Sandra, 'surprise monday should be all weapons can blind.' Huginn says, 'very effective' Isam says to Sana, 'thats standard create practice isn't it.' Sandman nods to himself. Quagmire says, 'you fled, made an army, made a wall in a 2 exit room, and waited' Sandman says to Sandra, 'then we can laugh at these ppl who hate it so.' Sana says, 'you know' Sandra giggles. Sana says, 'ive logged every fight sanas done' Ghengis returns to being In Character. Quagmire says, 'it's asnine, and it's the surest fire win in PK' Sana says, 'and theres maybe 6 like that' Sana says, 'out of 300' Sana says, 'you confuse me with arnic' Quagmire says, 'there isnt an easier win than two dispels and a wall' Quagmire says, 'there isnt a 3 skill combo that'd kick that much ass' Isam says to Quagmire, 'but its backed up by teh summons.' Huginn says, 'well again.. you don't need an instant kill method' Static returns to being In Character. Quagmire says, 'what she needs is roots' Sana says, 'but i dont need a 100% useless spell either' Galahad says, 'Do you consider snipe an instant kill method?' Sana says, 'the only person on this mud dumb enough to be able to get climb but not do so ios asterix' Huginn says, 'no not really.. she's pretty competitive' Hebe says to Sana, 'You've got lots of them. :p' Isam says to Sana, '90% of the spells are useless.' Sana says, 'so why dont we change wall of stone to asterix killer' Sana says, 'and put him in the helpfile too' Quagmire says, 'creates cant do damage or heal, it's great' Sana says, 'even I climb, god' Sana says, 'maybe' Sandra says, 'creates can do damage. I coded 2 of the spells!' Sana says, '....' Hebe nods her agreement with Sandman. Sana says, 'acid needs some work' Hebe points at Sandra. Quagmire says to Sandra, 'great, let's see flamestrike vs watery death.' Sandra says, 'flamestrike wasn't one of the skills I coded' Quagmire says, 'sana and I tested acid' Quagmire says, 'that has to be the funniest spell ever' Sandra says, 'acid hurts every room they go into. It's fine' Isam says, 'funniest in a bad way' Sana says, 'standing starving and acided quagmire still healed to full before it hit him' Quagmire says, 'it's like an immolate, but crapper' Quagmire says, 'actually i was moving around, it ticked' Quagmire says, 'giving creates major poison might be interesting' Hebe says, 'yeah, it seems to work on the tick, not on the move.' Sandra says, 'hm, yea it is tick. my bad' Huginn says, 'didn't really you were dying so much' Huginn says, 'or horror' Huginn says, 'sorry who did really well in that competition recently?' Huginn says, 'oh yeah.. horror' Galahad says, 'Horror' Quagmire says, 'it's 2 on 2' Quagmire says, 'that's different' Huginn says, 'not the tourney' Galahad says, 'the Pkill game' Huginn says, 'the one sandra ran' Huginn nods solemnly. Quagmire says, 'lemme see the kill list for that?' Quagmire says, 'i think it was all fighters' Huginn says, 'I hear you bitching, I just don't know why' Huginn says, 'oh right.. one type to kill everyone' Quagmire says, '....' Sandman snickers at Huginn nastily. Galahad raises his hand. Sana says, 'you mean kinda like head shots' Sana peers around intently.

______

Sandra points at Galahad. Galahad nibbles on a fly's ear. Sana returns to being In Character. Huginn says, 'head shots recently?' Hebe raises her hand. Hebe nods her agreement with Huginn. Quagmire says to Sandra, 'immolate the fly so it's a *fire*fly? :P' Galahad says, 'I have a question about paralyze' Sandra giggles. Galahad says, 'Does it last depending on damage?' Huginn says, 'head shots recently?' Hebe says to Huginn, 'I switched from a q4 bow to a q5 bow, there's a HUGE Swing.' Hebe says to Huginn, 'This week.' Quagmire purrs contentedly, happy to have the little sure-shot. Huginn says, 'not in the code there isn't' Hebe says to Huginn, 'In stuns ;)' Galahad nods his agreement with Huginn. Hebe says to Huginn, 'I had one stunning headshot before the switch.'

______

Sandra points at Hebe. Hebe says to Huginn, 'Now i get at least 25%.' Hebe says to Sandra, 'It was the q5 bow thing.' Sandra says, 'ah ok' Sandra says, 'ok other questions?' Huginn says, 'you get a stun 1 out of 4 shots' Hebe says to Huginn, 'Guessing, yes.' Hebe says to Huginn, 'I'll document it if you like.' Huginn says, 'that seems bad' Galahad raises his hand. Huginn says, '?' Galahad has somewhat more of a real question now. Hebe says to Huginn, 'I didn't say it was overpowered.' Sandra nods her agreement with Galahad. Quagmire launches himself across the room and tackles Haley to the ground! Quagmire says, 'woo!' Lust says to Haley, 'Wow, an imm that walks places.' Lust gasps in astonishment. Hebe says to Huginn, 'I said the diff between quality is enormous, for stun.' Quagmire says, 'Haley's current invis level is [WizInvis 51 (Aura)].' Haley giggles. Hebe falls to her knees and worships Haley's existence. Haley always does a 'goto ooc' then walks west;) Huginn says, 'its different in how well you hit' Lust says, 'ahhh' Lenore runs in circles around Haley, squealing loudly. Huginn says, 'which effects your chance to stun' Quagmire goes EEK! at Haley in distress - isn't Haley an awful person for teasing? Huginn says, 'thought I said that part' Hebe says to Huginn, '0 to 25% better?' Sana says, 'bah, time to tform for my ride home, someone ask something catastrophic for me' Hebe says, 'it makes like, one gun and one bow worth using, that's my complaint.' Sana returns to being In Character. Huginn says, 'if you never get into the "great shot" range then yeah getting there would make a difference' Sandra says, 'I'd like to point out that the bow you're using' Sandra says, 'isn't what you think :)' Hebe says to Sandra, 'I'm going by what armslore says.' Sandra says, 'what was the other bow?' Hebe says, 'ody.' Sandra says, 'ah' Berek raises his hand. Galahad begins to twitch nervously. Sandman says to Sandra, 'the oaken i thought was best in game =p' Hebe says, 'which i assume, by armlore, is q4.' Sandra shakes her head in disagreement with Sandman. Lenore gets a distracted look on her face. Sandman says to Sandra, 'lies!' Hebe says, 'or next to highest quality, oaken being highest..' Hebe says, 'whatever the Q :p' Berek returns to being In Character. Isam says, 'i only know of 1 q5 bow'

______

Sandra points at Galahad. Hebe says to Isam, 'Which is?' Quagmire returns to being In Character. Galahad says, 'Ok not sure how many people are gonna like this' Lust returns to being In Character. Galahad says, 'Even though I really do hate to bitch about stuff, but I feel this is fair game' Galahad says, 'The Sastram as a weapon... it's like it has gone from an in-spec item, to a grossly out of spec item' Galahad says, 'It has been lowered 3.5 K rent' Galahad says, 'raised from Q4 to Q5' Hebe chortles with amusement. Galahad says, 'Meanwhile maintaining the 40hp spell and the curse on it' Sandra says, 'some time ago, yes' Galahad says, 'both of which go off frequently' Chaykin says, 'well 10k rent was never reasonable on a q4 weapon :P' Hebe convinced Rufus to change the Sastram. Isam says, 'people used the q4 version' Galahad says, 'Are you kidding' Sandra says, 'it is still in spec' Isam says, 'i thought it was good even' Galahad says, 'ya, but it hit much worse' Sandman nods his agreement with Isam. Isam says, 'now is just unbeleivablygoodformostpeople' Sandman says, 'i used it as q4..' Galahad says, 'I know people used it, but there was a price' Galahad says, 'it didn't hit as hard' Galahad says, 'Now it is actually the BEST weapon I can think of' Hebe says to Galahad, 'That depends alot on the chartype.' Galahad says, 'Lower rent than most other popular weapons and with super specials' Isam says to Galahad, 'it has some small failing.' Quagmire says to Isam, 'yeah, thats about all it has.' Isam says, 'i mean' Isam says, 'well' Isam says, 'one weakness' Galahad says, 'Let me put it this way, there is no reason to pick any other STR weapon over it' Quagmire says to Isam, 'it has that extra little attack.' Isam nods his agreement with Quagmire. Hebe says to Galahad, 'That's so untrue.' Galahad says, 'Nah... headbut is still powerful' Isam says to Galahad, 'i still prefer the trident for mobkill, thats it though.' Quagmire says to Isam, 'that's only bad if you're stunning, or against someone with rof :P' Sandman looks up into the sky and ponders. Galahad says, 'Would the imms like to comment on how an item can be so powerful?' Sandra says, 'since Rufus isn't here, you should probably drop him a note about your concern or put it on idea' Sandra says, 'it is in spec, so I don't really have any comments on it' Isam says, 'why aren't the other in-spec items as good then?' Hebe says, 'imo, this game is all about hit/dam now. which is only available in certain slots.' Isam chuckles politely. Galahad says, 'KZ eq is in-spec but it's a lot harder to get' Quagmire says, 'who remembers when brines went to 1500 rent for a week' Hebe says, 'making, IMO, the SSS still the best str weapons. :p' Sandman says to Hebe, 'fraegra is nice.' Hebe says to Sandman, 'As is nuada's.' Sandman grins evilly. Sandman nods solemnly. Sandman says to Hebe, 'star sword!' Sandman throws his head back and cackles gleefully! Galahad says, 'ya, but that's room blind' Isam says to Hebe, 'only the out of spec ones, i'd rather use a better sword and get damroll elsewhere.' Galahad says, 'and not 5 stats' Hebe says, 'just because everyone is doing it doesn't make it best.' Hebe shrugs helplessly. Galahad says, 'and rents more' Galahad says to Hebe, 'actually, it does.' Sandra says, 'ok' Sandra says, 'look' Sandra says, 'first' Sandra says, 'the spell doesn't do 40 damage' Sandra says, 'at most, it does 15' Galahad shakes his head. Sandra says, 'yes' Sandman says, 'sets to sitting = good' Sandra nods her agreement with Sandman. Galahad says, 'If I kick, shoot or anything' Sandman says, 'is what mainly does the damage ppl speak of' Galahad says, 'and it guests' Sandra says, 'it's in the CODE that it does only so much' Galahad says, 'gusts' Hebe says to Sandman, 'So use the sl axe.' Galahad says, 'they don't have to bash' Sandman says to Hebe, 'its 2 handed..' Sandman sighs loudly. Sandra says, 'the problem you have is that it sits you down' Sandra says, 'sits the victim, I should say' Hebe says to Sandman, 'Meaning you have to lose a horn.' Hebe says, 'or a luckstone.' Sandra says, 'spells from weapons do not do full damage' Hebe shrugs helplessly. Sandman says to Hebe, 'meaning i cant use a 2handed something else =p' Sandra says, '10-15, that's it' Huma slowly fades into existence. Hebe snickers at Sandman nastily. Hebe tickles Huma. Isam says, 'eh' Huma says, 'hola' Hebe says to Huma, 'TPIR!' Sandra says, 'sorry to burst bubbles :)' Isam says, 'i'm pretty sure we figured 30 damage for atleast one spell' Sandra says, 'that's all the damage you get' Berek raises his hand. Isam says, 'is that wrong?' Galahad says to Sandman, 'sTill, any other item with 2 spells usually has some gross minus to it.' Sandra says, 'they don't do full damage' Galahad says, 'meant to be for sandra' Sandman says, 'curse makes you or mob 3 agg sets you to sitting = mega more damage output in the round for you' Isam says, '50% damage? any way to know it?' Sandra says, 'not 50% either' Sandra says to Sandman, 'I'm aware :)00.' Sandman says, 'thats why it seems so kickass' Quagmire reads a small piece of paper from Rufus. Quagmire junks a small piece of paper from Rufus. Galahad says, 'Also the really low rent and the upping of the quality all make things insane' Sandman says, 'im tryin to explain your side!' Sandman winks suggestively at Sandra. Sandman is a sandra clone... nod self. Sandra says, 'I suggest dropping Rufus a note with your concerns. It's his to change or not :) But by specs, it's not out' Galahad chuckles politely. Sandman says, 'long live bows and ignite!' Galahad says, 'Ya, kinda like perdurable wasn't outta specs' Sandman nods to himself. Galahad ducks to the ground. Hebe says to Sandman, 'Long live mobs that taint!' Berek says, 'it wasnt, the rest of the mud was' Hebe says to Sandra, 'Speaking of taint.' Hebe says to Sandra, 'You told me you could taint an entire quiver, you lied!' Sandra says, 'I don't remember the problem with the perdurable' Sandra says, 'no, you can't taint an entire quiver' Sandra says, 'never said you could' Huma says, 'perdurable seems fine, its awessome and buried far away' Hebe says to Sandra, 'You did too. :p' Sandra says, 'you can ignite an entire quiver' Huginn laughs. Galahad says, 'it used to be bad' Sandra says, 'you taint arrows' Sandman says to Sandra, 'you can with a lot of vials =p' Sandman snickers softly. Galahad says, 'actually you need individual arrows' Isam says, 'well perdurable was changed, so i asume it was out of spec' Sandra says, 'I don't remember what it was' Sandman says, 'it had 15 ac on it i heard' Galahad shakes his head. Sandman looks up into the sky and ponders. Hebe says to Galahad, 'I've learned :p' Sandra says, 'ah' Sandra says, 'no it wasn't out of spec with that' Sandman says, 'was that it?' Isam says, 'yes it had -15 AC' Galahad says, 'See not outta spec' Galahad says, 'But ridiculous' Sandra says, 'Galahad' Quagmire says, 'a fighter's wet dream' Berek says, 'are we still doing the raise/point portion of this or is this the blab out your problems all at once if you want to, portion?' Sandra says, 'for the third time' Sandman says, 'holy cow not out of spec for having ac!? i want that one!' Huma says, 'well the problem with sastram is its not even hard to get =P' Sandra says, 'send Rufus a note :)' Galahad says, 'It's Karma stat was outta spec' Sandra nods her agreement with Berek. Galahad nods his agreement with Sandra. Galahad says, 'I will' Sandra smiles happily.

Sandra points at Berek. Berek says, 'ok say the thing i dont like about barney is this, he suckss' Berek says, 'and tpilet paper burns' Berek says, 'oh' Hebe says to Berek, 'This is the slay/glue berek portion.' Berek says, 'ok, i was walking into a room to fight a create the other day who had wall of thorns and it said blahblah is here with thorns' Berek says, 'then i was walking into fight some hippie tart who had rof and it said noooothing' Berek says, 'is this the imms liberal bias for cause mages in the media again or what?' Quagmire laughs. Sandra giggles. Sandra says, 'bug it' Huma thought it had a message. Hebe nods her agreement with Huma. Isam thought so too. Berek says, 'well maybe the hippie is just special' Sandra says, 'I thought it said that 'soandso is here surrounded bya ring of fire'' Galahad returns to being In Character. Isam says, 'so and so is here surround by rings of fire' Hebe nods her agreement with Sandra. Hebe returns to being In Character. Berek says, 'well someone whos cause come rof somewhere' Berek says, 'and we see' Sandman returns to being In Character. Berek says, 'but it didnt' Berek says, 'in fact' Berek says, 'why dont sandra just rof! ;p' Berek stares off into space. Isam says, 'force sandra chant vina agni vayu ex' Sandra says, 'can't chant here :)' Berek says, 'what even imms?' Sandra says, 'so seems like it's on the list to get fixed' Sandra says, 'ok other last minute questions?' Berek looks up into the sky and ponders. Quagmire raises his hand. Berek raises his hand.

______

Sandra points at Quagmire. Quagmire says, 'any plans to change the repop rate on marauder?' Quagmire says, 'he FINALLY repopped' Huginn says, 'quick someone kill him' Sandra says, 'yea, I increased it. Now he'll only repop during business hours' Lenore snickers softly. Huginn says, 'he's worth A LOT of experience' Huginn winks suggestively. Berek says, 'god the marauder thing is so cliche!' Berek raises his hand. Sandra points at Berek. Quagmire says to Huginn, 'actually he's accepting one of my snipers :P' Quagmire says to Huginn, 'unless he rejected me :(' Huginn laughs. Berek says, 'any plans to change the repop time on riptide? its been years' Sandra giggles. Berek says, 'speaking of him actually' Berek says, 'i have a theoretical question about surgeon bots' Quagmire returns to being In Character. Berek says, 'say i make a surgeon bot and im at my keyboard' Berek says, 'but i go to the bathroom' Berek says, 'and um' Berek says, 'nevermind' Quagmire raises his hand. Quagmire peers around intently. Quagmire says, 'bah' Quagmire returns to being In Character. Sandra says to Berek, 'You're responsible for your char.' Sandra says, 'ok last call' Chaykin says, 'I'm spent!' Sandra giggles. Sandra says, 'ok, lets close up'
