Huma says, 'ok frenchy go ahead' Huma pokes Frenchy with Kryptonite. Frenchy says, 'my question pertains to the events that transpired last night in the Dante's Inferno expansion.' Quagmire blinks. Huma says, 'k... I wasnt there' Huma says, 'but go ahead' Jeffrey giggles at Violet. Frenchy says, 'my roomate told me that there was some bugs apparently and they had to be cr'ed by Bart' Sandra shakes her head. Frenchy says, 'is that all cleared up now, or should we assume the area is still under construction?' Sandra says, 'they got stuck in the maze. I'm aware of it, just having trouble finding it' Trousers peers around intently. Jeffrey says, 'in limbo?' Sandra says, 'they didn't get cr'd out. They just got bart to fix the exit' Sandra nods her agreement with Jeffrey. Jeffrey nods solemnly. Frenchy says, 'is it something to be concerned about....with a group possibly heading in? could it pose a problem still?' Jeffrey says, 'we got stuck there a few weeks ago, there was literally no way back to the gates' Frenchy says, 'I'm just getting second hand information so...' Sandra says, 'nah it's not something to be concerned about. It's annoying, but not life threatening' Huma nods solemnly. Sandra says, 'but I am trying to fix it :)' Huma says, 'Sandra has been crushing bugs there like John Goodman from arachnaphobia' Somar says, 'and Sandra is the r0x0r when she really sets her mind to it!' Jeffrey snickers at Huma nastily. Sandra giggles. Frenchy says, 'no I know but will it work for us to be able to go into hell, I guess thats my main question.' Sandra says, 'oh sure' Huma says, 'yeah no forseeable problems with going to hell right now' Quagmire licks Haley. Sandra nods her agreement with Huma. LadyAce says, 'a lot of folks have been in and out of there, we're rescue you if that odd bug crops up again but we doubt it will!' Trousers says, 'and there were plenty of bugs too, eh?' Sandra says, 'one or two' Frenchy says, 'ok. my roomate just said that they had problems finding the boatman the second time. I guess it trapped Wren' Huma says, 'only a couple... hundred?' Trousers snickers at Huma nastily. Quagmire says, 'wren trap!' Sandra says, 'yea, it was in the limbo section' Frenchy says, 'then when he went to help wren it wouldn't let them to charon.' LadyAce says, 'it's down from 450 to about 300 atm :)' Frenchy nods solemnly. Huma says, 'oh I'm sorry not a couple hundred... severalhundred' Huma says, 'my bad' Sandra giggles. LadyAce says, 'Sandra's kicking butt!' Sandra says, 'osme of those are marked fixed already' Frenchy says, 'alright. I have one more unrelated question.' Huma says, 'but no really, any problems that appear are not anything we currently know about persay' Sandra says, 'it's actually much less' Huma says, 'we dont know about them, if you discover something maybe but so far its fine' Frenchy nods her agreement with Huma. Frenchy says, 'yeah the trans worked well' Frenchy claps for Sandra approvingly. Sandra smiles happily. Frenchy says, 'fast' Sandra says, 'I slowed them down slightly this week coz they were a little too fast. But its nothing near what it was' Huma nods solemnly. Huma says, 'what was the other quest?' Huma says, 'ion' Huma says, 'quest ion, its like this thing you do to get a free saturn' Huma says, 'not funny?' Sandra ruffles Huma's hair playfully. Somar shakes his head in disagreement with Huma. Violet groans loudly. Huma says, 'ok then' Jeffrey says to Huma, 'Jokes like that are bad PR.' Huma smirks. Huma says, 'no worse then somars BO' Frenchy says, 'just a clarification question about which immortals are doing what now, or all you all just becoming jacks?' Huma says to Frenchy, 'Did you have another question?' Somar says, 'our crazy referencing of every rock song released in the past two decades or so was MUCH funnier' Jeffrey says to Huma, 'True.' LadyAce says to Frenchy, 'Wizlist shows the breakdown.' Huma says, 'oh uh, well, we do what our wizbits say we do, but I guess we're all jack of all in a way right?' LadyAce smiles at Frenchy. Huma says, 'I dont think anythings changed, cept names' Huma says, 'structure wise =P' Huma peers around intently. Jeffrey chuckles politely. LadyAce says, 'well, maybe a little more than names.' LadyAce winks suggestively at Huma. Huma says, 'yes, PR has taken a nosedive' Huma says, 'other then that!' Quagmire says, 'what, ladyace still has a big P yanno' Huma laughs. Huma says, 'I hear somar has a Big C too' Somar says, 'and a very small b' Quagmire says, 'that's a media slant' Huma smirks. Quagmire says, 'he has a b of steel' Huma says, 'anyway' Huma says, 'next question!' Huma peers around intently. Huma says, 'no one else has raise the hand' Quagmire raises his hand.

Huma says, 'ok' Huma pokes Quagmire with Kryptonite. Huma says, 'go ahead' Quagmire says, 'i've just gotta reiterate a complaint about player housing' Sandra says, 'hah! I found it' Quagmire says, 'phoenix and asterix have been idling like dicks behind two uberlocked doors for 8 hours now :P' Frenchy claps for Sandra approvingly. Quagmire says, 'is there any way that voiding in a house can expel?' Somar laughs. Huma smirks. Quagmire says, 'or ideally, a way for a PKer to actually pick the locks?' Huma says, 'I doubt it on the first part' Gho says to Quagmire, 'Reiterate keys.' Huma says, 'I'd personally like to see locks dumbed down a bit, we'll see what happens though' Quagmire says, 'huginn said he was looking at pick, or getting around to it' Gho says, 'well.' Huma says, 'gotta trust in Huginn' Huma says, 'in huginn we trust' Quagmire says, 'it's just frustrating to hunt and realize by the english channel they're sitting in that stupid house' LadyAce says, 'yea, it's a topic of discussion and thought right now' Huma nods his agreement with Quagmire. Gho says, 'even if you do downtone it, there'll just be more rooms with more doors.' Huma says, 'we're all sharpening our swords to tear eachother apart about it soon' Gho says, 'so limit housing to one lick :p' Frenchy says, 'that has always been a part of playerkill though.' LadyAce says, 'we have a lot of things in that category but you'll be seeing them by and by' Gho says, 'lock!' Quagmire says, 'i'd like the things faster' Horror pinches Cheap and you wonder what he will do back. TheWatcher says, 'its pick on cheap night!!! whooooo' Huma says, 'I dont have a queue' Cheap hugs Haley. Quagmire says, 'is there anyway we can not give rufus his 5 minutes of sunlight so he can code 20000 extra lines?' Huma says, 'so anyone who wants to start' Huma says, 'just raise your hand' Huma says, 'ok I have no one in the queue right now' Huma says, 'so if you have a question please raise your hand' TheWatcher raises her hand.

Huma says, 'ok go thewatcher' Huma pokes TheWatcher with Kryptonite. TheWatcher says, 'who owns somar, and I would like to offer 3 camels, 31 fish, and 2 half dead lizards for him :)' Huma says, 'well Huginn does' TheWatcher says, 'other than that.. nothing :)' Lorenzo looks at an icpali chair, boggled. Huma says, 'and I think Huginn wants to keep ahold' Somar says, 'I'm Huginn's slaveboy' Huma pets an icpali chair lovingly. Huma says, 'love the icpali chair' TheWatcher grumbles. Huma says, 'I dont even know what it is I'll be honest' TheWatcher whines. TheWatcher says, 'I never get a good little slave boy' Huma says, 'so, mudmail Huginn for prices on Somars' Huma says, 'other questions?' Somar says, 'you have to put all 3 camels through the eyes of needles before Huginn lets go, I'm sure' Rufus says, 'so what do I need 5 mins to code?' TheWatcher nods solemnly. Cheap says, 'whoever came up with the newbie q1 weapon thing, smart idea' Frenchy throws her head back and cackles gleefully! TheWatcher snickers at Somar nastily. LadyAce says, 'I forget who it was. Not me.' Cheap says, 'which imm gets the credit so I can cheer them?' Jeffrey says, 'they just found soft tissue inside the bone of a T-rex, they should combine it with somar's DNA to clone one' Huma looks up into the sky and ponders. LadyAce says, 'Huma's I think, or Sandra's' Huma says, 'I have been on everyone booty about improving newbie everything' Huma says, 'me or Sandra did it' Somar says, 'a lot of people were involved' Sandra nods her agreement with Huma. Cheap cheers for Huma - huzzah! Cheap cheers for Sandra - huzzah! Somar says, 'LadyAce drank a lot of caffeine and went on an area update bender, too' Cheap says, 'there, ya both get it :)' Sandra giggles. Huma says, 'LA made it' Somar says, 'so she also deserves cheers' LadyAce says to Somar, 'Only to make ya look bad.' Somar whimpers to LadyAce. Huma says, 'but well sometimes, we throw out so many ideas on a daily basis' Huma says, 'its hard sometimes to tell who begins and ends where' Cheap says, 'area updates are cool, but newbies need work there and that is a step forward imho' LadyAce says, 'Rufus and Sandra kept me on track with making sure the proposal got formalized and passed around and approved and stuff' Frenchy raises her hand. Huma says, 'newbies need a lot of work' Jeffrey says, 'I think it's a great project' Huma says, 'I am rabidly running it down' Cheap nods his agreement with Huma.

Huma says, 'ok frenchy go ahead' Huma pokes Frenchy with Kryptonite. Sandra says, 'Ok, I fixed the limbo maze' Somar says, 'Huma's been very enthusiastic about the newbie ease subject for a looong time' Jeffrey cheers for Sandra - huzzah! Frenchy says, 'whats progress on new areas, and any projections when a new area could be implemented?' Huma says, 'weeeeel' Huma says, 'I'll let LA handle it because I'm not sure how much I can say' Huma says, 'definately things happening' LadyAce says, 'Two new areas: Tartarus and Black Forest' LadyAce says, 'one cool expansion: Pittsburgh' LadyAce says, 'those are the three seeing the most progress week to week' Huma nods solemnly. Jeffrey says, 'I've said it before' Somar says, 'she's gonna start telling me REAL soon to get my booty heavily in gear' Jeffrey says, 'nestor is like an area machine' LadyAce says, 'plus there's a lot of revising going on that you're seeing the updates on and such' Huma says, 'if I dont start really kickin butt on Tombstone soon I'm gonna incinerated' Frenchy says, 'will the pittsburgh expainsion be akin to the klein one?' LadyAce says, 'yea, wouldn't you like to be on my list of areas seeing weekly progress?' LadyAce bats her eyelashes at Huma. Jeffrey says to Huma, 'I'm your huckleberry.' Huma sniffs sadly. Huma nods his agreement with Jeffrey. Somar says to LadyAce, 'I wanna be on the list!' Sandra says, 'the pgh expansion is the steel mill' Huma says, 'prolly not no' LadyAce says, 'Pittsburgh expansion is more like, a new zone. Klien was a bunch of things.' Rufus says, 'it's very steel and millish' Sandra giggles. LadyAce says, 'Klein took ages, tho, and Sandra's not as slow as me.' Frenchy laughs. Somar says, 'and there may be some milling of steal' Huma says, 'millers and steelers' Huma says, 'will populate it' Jeffrey says to Somar, 'Will it be possible to steal the mill?' Huma says, 'quite possible' Somar says to Jeffrey, 'Only if you're very sneaky.' LadyAce chuckles politely. LadyAce says, 'you kids. what cut ups!' Huma says, 'although it will have to be steeled mill you steal' Somar says, 'or milled steel?' Frenchy says to Sandra, 'any thought of adding a football stadium?' Jeffrey slyly gets Sandra's new area! Somar says, 'perhaps you'd steal the milled steel?' Huma says, 'no no no cant get to that Somar' Huma says, 'to well guarded' Sandra shakes her head. Jeffrey says, 'will they offer a still meal?' LadyAce says, 'that answer your question tho?' Sandra says, 'the baseball game was the mother of all bitches to build. I ain't doing that again :P' Frenchy nods solemnly. Rufus says, 'actually it's an area that's an entire, game-based, rock solid support of Utilitarianism... yes, A Steel (John Stuart) Mill.' Jeffrey snickers at Sandra nastily. Huma smirks. Rufus says, 'and thanks for the lag on that terrible timing on that joke.' Somar comforts Rufus. Sandra giggles. Huma says, 'ok who else would like to ask a question?' Violet giggles. Huma says, 'please?' Huma says, 'if you dont ask questions I get hurt' Frenchy laughs. LadyAce says, 'questions about code or area changes?' Jeffrey says, 'what code changes?' LadyAce says, 'objections quibbles comments concerns conundrums?' LadyAce says, 'the invisible code changes of dooooom I say' Sandra says, 'dirty limericks?' Jeffrey snickers softly. Frenchy says, 'I have a question that is kind of unrelated to legend but thought I might ask it for the sake of generating interest?' Huma says, 'sure whatsup' Frenchy says, 'anyone here interested in joining a LegendMud exclusive rotiserie baseball league?' Frenchy says, 'i can set it up.' Talia blinks at Frenchy. Frenchy says, 'and it's free.' Rufus says, 'what is a rotiserie baseball league?' Somar says, 'you should've asked before.. I don't think we could have done legend exclusive, but our league only had eight people in it :P' Cheap says, 'code updates?' Cheap pokes Huginn in the ribs. Huma says, 'yeah seriously' Huma says, 'I woulda loved it' Somar says to Rufus, 'Fantasy sports.. basically, the players you draft get stats for your team based on how they do irl.' Huma says, 'I'm a baseball... just a baseball freak' Frenchy says, 'we can still do it' Somar says to Frenchy, 'We already had our draft though :(' Rufus says, 'ahh, rotiserie just sounds food related.' Jeffrey jumps in the air and slams a thunderous high-5 with Huma! Frenchy says, 'I can make us a new league. it's salary cap based.' Violet nods her agreement with Rufus. Huma says, 'I can probably name every starter on every team =P' Jeffrey has tickets to at least one game at Fenway this season. Somar looks at Jeffrey and drools. Frenchy says to Huma, 'me 2.' Huma bounces onto Jeffrey's lap. Huma says to Jeffrey, 'I wuv you.' Jeffrey giggles at Huma. Somar says to Jeffrey, 'If you're hard up for someone to bring to the game, let me know.' Huma says, 'ok anyone else have any other questions?' Huginn says to Cheap, 'Is that how you talk to people? All demanding? :-)' Somar says, 'Boston is damn far, but not too far to go to see a good game' Huma pushes Somar away from him. Jeffrey says to Somar, 'Hehe will do.' Huma says to Jeffrey, 'He talks crap about you.' LadyAce says to Frenchy, 'Sounds like you'd get some interest if you posted it.' Jeffrey nods his agreement with Somar. Talia says, 'yay tim for my boyfriend to go home' Cheap snickers softly. Jeffrey ponders Huma's existence. Rufus says, 'I know a baseball is round, and you swing a bat at it.' Talia bounces around. Rufus sighs loudly. Frenchy nods her agreement with LadyAce. Frenchy says, 'will do then.' Jeffrey comforts Rufus. LadyAce says to Rufus, 'Or rotate it, like a rotiserie!' Huma says, 'anyone else got any questions?' Cheap gets out his whip, cackling toward huginn, a strange gleam in his eye Frenchy says, 'ok I'll form the league and post the link later tonight.' Huma says, 'ok I'll pull this Q&A right over and end it if we dont have questions :)' Cheap says, 'well, I was waiting to see what code updates there were :)' Huma says, 'ok thats coo' Cheap says, 'I might have a question then :P' Huma says, 'then we'll just sit 'round for a couple then!' Huginn finishes writing on a postcard from Huginn. Cheap says, 'hunt lag reduced!' LadyAce says, 'is a nice chunk of changes' Huma says, 'blame Huginn and Sandra for that I think' LadyAce cheers for Huginn - huzzah! LadyAce cheers for Somar - huzzah! LadyAce cheers for Rufus - huzzah! LadyAce also cheers for Snapper in absentia! Huma says, 'Snapper is a bug killa' Huginn says, 'somar and snapper.. with some rufus' Lorenzo whistles appreciatively. Somar says, 'Snapper was a MACHINE' Huginn says, 'I just did the hunt lag and something else' Huginn shrugs helplessly. Huma raises an eyebrow inquiringly. Somar did only a couple of the things here.. Snapper absolutely went on a bender. Huginn nods his agreement with Somar. Cheap says, 'some good things in the area and code update' Huginn nods solemnly. Sandra says, 'yea, we've been kickin butt' Rufus says, 'I gotta blast =)' Cheap nods solemnly. Sandra is proud of everyone. Rufus waves happily. Huma says, 'yeah, seriously, tons of stuff going on' Cheap says, 'the atmosphere here is great by the way, so easy going now' Cheap says, 'a 180 turn around comparitive to when I played' Cheap says, 'kudos to the staff' Sandra thanks Cheap heartily. Cheap laughs. Huginn giggles. Sandra giggles. Cheap says, 'I heard that' Cheap winks suggestively at Huginn. Huginn knocks Cheap over and flops all over him. Somar says, 'I think they may have been talking about me though' Somar looks at Sandra and shudders. Cheap says, 'ohh, hehe' Somar looks at Huginn and shudders. Huma says, 'Somar is making crazy claims like he invented the question mark' Huginn says, 'but he forgot to trademark it!' Somar says, 'and the internet' Sandra says, 'and I'm gonna tattoo one on his forehead' Cheap says, 'any changes coming up that you guys care to talk about? stuff that is not top secret?' Jeffrey says, 'as a child did he make meat helmets?' Huma says, 'well then... questions about code, or anything else?' Huma nods his agreement with Jeffrey. Huma says to Jeffrey, 'Why yes he did.' Jeffrey says, 'and marry a 15-year-old prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet?' Somar says, 'that's a lie' Huma says, 'yes sir' Somar says, 'she was 16' Sandra says, 'we have a LOT of things we are working on. but I can't give any details yet because they're not all fleshed out/approved, etc' Sandra says, 'but stay tuned. You won't be disappointed' Huma says, 'yeah' Huginn says, 'I'm changing some sniper damage' Huginn flops about helplessly. Spanish-Flea says, 'really?' Spanish-Flea says, 'where, when how what why' Huginn says, 'no kidding' Huginn says, 'yes really' Cheap says, 'cool' Cheap says, 'well trump is giving hell, and this is the only time I watch the show' Cheap snickers softly. Huma says, '# of changes that we are talking about... its totally sweet' Sandra giggles. Cheap waves happily. Huma says, '#'s and types' Jeffrey says, 'no fair, everyone is ahead of me' Sandra nods her agreement with Huma. Huma says, 'oh its awesome, you guys will be so happy I think' Huma says, 'maybe not happy' Huma says, 'but the game will be better!' Jeffrey snickers at Huma nastily. LadyAce says, 'they'll be happy!' Sandra says, 'also, be sure to post your thoughts on my forum post under the Discussion forum!' Huginn says, 'happy!' Sandra wants ideas! Huma says, 'and yeah' Huma says, 'give us more ideas' Somar says, 'you should be happy! We had nothing more than sharpened sticks to fight each other with' Somar says, 'and we LIKED it' Huma says, 'we are all really dullards' Violet snickers softly. Sandra says, 'and the punch social' Spanish-Flea punches Sandra in the face - better stand back! Huma says, 'I didnt know what SL was until yesterday' Somar says, 'oh, you were lucky to have socials' Huma says, 'I thought everyone really liked salted lentil soup' Sandra giggles. Huma says, 'so no more questions?' Somar says, 'anyone? anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?' Sandra cheers for Somar - huzzah! Huma says, 'ok then I think I might call an end if we have nothing more to say' Kryptonite thuds as Huma attempts to bounce it - what a klutz.
