ornament lies open, a yellow chalice depicted on one of the visible pages

cover-side, it bears a single 'E' and 'P', carefully laid into the surface of
the sugarwork binding, calling it out as the Erra Pater without making room
for quite that much text. A little loop of thread has been threaded through
one corner, allowing the whole ornament to hang as desired.

leave it with one guild with and another without. Ultimately, we felt that upstanding public
services wouldn't be available in the GH of criminals and terrorists - albeit we were unaware that
both had couriers, and a bit of discussion on that point made it clear that mail was too intrinsic
to RP coordination."

sorting for the auction hall... and then I just have to price everything and drop it off in the
auction hall, and prepare the new postings and put them up in the real estate boards. So none of

Maeve states, "I think so. In poking through help files, my understanding is that anything a guild
buys should be taxed if it exceeds their 11 room allotment. However, we struggle with private
ownership because we don't have strong tracking systems up top. It's highly manual on our side.

bit short"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "Yeah, auto-guilding is a way to get people seeking to play a certain type of character
around the wait of an inactive GL, then hopefully that puts them in a position to move them up and
give them higher roles or even leadership of the guild in extreme circumstances of inactivity."

Maeve says, "I think the lowest rank is an initiate-esque rank, then there's the ceremony for the

on a tell sent to me by a player in the know."

'Hey, I chose this guild and it's not working for me', we'd help."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "And the pbase on the whole would be unlikely to hold that against you unless you took
some major, dramatic and impactful action that made it feel less like a 'hey, I tried something that
didn't suit my playstyle, can I change it' and more like avoiding consequences of known RP."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "A tell: This does raise the question - if people app into the coverts and then leave
does that fall under the cyan 'do over' rules and is the expectation they respectfully handle any
secrets they learned during that time? If so, I can't recall off-hand if that's noted in a specific
helpfile. <-- It does raise the question, and it is a bit hard to answer. I would presume if it's
happening because of guild inactivity, though, that the player probably doesn't have any secrets to
worry about. If for other reasons, hmm."

AlleyGirl states, "I thought when someone app'd in, they're there. Because they got special
approval. It's play that, or not. It's different from purchasing in, because special applications

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl claims, "I've seen apps done by true new players, especially noble apps. But yeah,
liquidating out of that situation is the usual method - it's not a 'redo' sort of cyan thing."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)

when already captured."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "I think RP drops in a lot of places and a lot of ways, and it's disheartening when it
does. It can be as simple as spending an hour writing mail and no one responding to it, all the way
up to someone being warranted and dropping off the game until the coast is clear."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi wonders, "So, Maeve and I were discussing some ideas last week on adjustments for wrapping up,

something
"[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "A lot of our play is about interaction with others, and that comes with a level of
social responsibility that most games don't require."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "Okay, to Temi's point - what she and I were discussing last weekend."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "So, the general idea would be that we'd want to strongly encourage that people wrap-up
their RP and bring things to a conclusion, rather than just drop out idle. So, best choice is
people just finish their RP to its conclusion. Next best after that is people liquidate - getting
an actual ending, even if it's not the RPed out option we'd prefer. And to actively discourage
people just dropping out without handling something serious."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)

AlleyGirl nods.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Meiari queries, "I'm fine with the general structure of that, but what kind of timeline are we
looking at before liquidation?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "A few other things that we sort of agree on - that people who have "strong RP" with
someone have a right to seek wrap-up. Strong RP is a spouse, relative, or someone who has a strong
line of RP going like is holding someone in custody."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:fatigued P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor wonders, "Really quick question before i offer opinion, if staff have to puppet a character
for a death scene, does that player get the death reward XP?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert claims, "There's also a degree of interdependency. If you look at it in just a bilateral view
where X has to wrap up with Y and put a timer on that, you can create an issue where X might be
trying to contact Z to spin-off into a different direction with the story or character, but Z is not
being active in responding in a timely fashion for the wrap-up."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "To that point, I want to reduce the barriers to requesting a wrap-up as I understand
it currently costs 10 QP to do so."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "No real change on that. People can put in for a liquidation when they are ready for it.
Six weeks for a wrap-up."

[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "Yeah, one of my concerns would be someone who is in jail online every day for a week

Temi nods at trogdor.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Meiari claims, "I agree with Trogdor. That's an appropriate consequence imo"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert claims, "Big ups to all the ambient messaging in jail btw."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Sparkles says, "I think there's also been the issue that folks will block liquidations in the hope
of getting the 'preferred' ending but that won't actually force someone to keep playing."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says to InvestSouthside, "Yes, right now they'd get the system mandated XP based on the type
of death, which is hard coded."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi nods at Sparkles.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi claims, "That's also something we want to adjust"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at trogdor.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor questions, "As far as liquidation goes, how does one get a notice that one plans to
liquidate? it never seems to work for me"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "It is physically impossible for us to make someone RP if they don't want to, just to
be clear. We can request, incentivize, etc, but anyone can disconnect from the game at any time and
refuse to participate. "
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor claims, "And there have been a few times where my antics have been thwarted because of it
:,("
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve queries to trogdor, "Yeah, I noticed that the posts that go to the boards about liquidation
requests are to Staff as opposed to to the pbase in general. I think that might be a bug?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor claims, "Not if we all pitch in and hire private investigators"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "There's an option in autolist for liquidation announcements"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor says, "Yeah, i have that turned on but i still don't see it"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi claims, "There may be a bug then"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor says, "Yeah, i have `'autoliq'` turned on"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Sparkles says, "You can check liquidate list as part of the things you check when you login in the
mean time."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at Sparkles.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "I think it should be more proactive and wider-alerted to the pbase on the whole."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "So maybe autoliq should default on if nothing else."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Sparkles states, "That said, I think generally when someone gets to the point they are going to
liquidate, forcing anything else does not from all I've seen lead to a good outcome for anyone."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Eeel muses, "How do you check liquidation announcements?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says to Eeel, "There's a liquidation list, I think"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl claims, "I don't know, I've seen people liquidate to avoid."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl says, "So, stopping that seems right."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert wonders, "Wouldn't autoliq also kind of have to tell you who it is by how you have them
remembered or it might be random people you can't ID?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "So, part of the proposal was adding a new contested option for liquidations. No change
in standard liquidations - if no one objects, you can just liquidate. If someone does and you
hadn't realized it, you can certainly just go back to working it out before you leave. But if
someone did block it and you didn't want to RP it out, you could instead take a contested
liquidation. Staff do the rolls to determine if you are able to get away, and if you are, we post a
nice closure for them with 'ran off to Tubor' or whatever. And if you fail the rolls, the people
blocking instead get to determine what happens."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "Then we at least get the conclusion decided, since we can't actually make liquidating
people play"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor trails off, "Oh, that's not a bad situation, Temi... with perhaps a reward for the person if
they stick around"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert wonders, "Isn't the reward the Death XP ?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi nods.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "Another part of the proposal is to make liquidation the better option - if you just
disappear, after a period of time, if a player requests a wrap-up, you just get wrapped up, no XP
return, etc."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor asks, "I don't think you get death xp on a liquidation? just a return of XP?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi nods at Maeve.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "If no one requests wrap up, you can just return."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert asks, "But is "sticking around" not not liquidating, so you would get the XP?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl claims, "You do get death xp if you liquidate."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Sparkles muses, "Would it be using the current rules for wrapping up absent folks or something
simpler?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says to trogdor, "I think you get standard death XP on liquidation - ie, you don't get 100%
return the way you do for big event deaths."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi states, "If you go through with the RP, there's extra bonuses for executions and such"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl claims, "It's your rec level percentage times your death xp, that's what you get."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at Temi.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Trogdor says, "Yeah, that's what i mean, thanks Maeve"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi states, "Though I think a lot of time, people who liquidate wouldn't have ended up dead"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at AlleyGirl.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert says, "Special kills like pyre is + 30 percent extra, overcap possible, yeah."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Valora stands up.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Valora begins to descend.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Valora leaves down.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl states, "Most liquidations I see are people who are dropping a character for whatever
reason. Sometimes long-long time characters."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi says, "But yeah, if we have a way for people to proactively wrap-up without making them player
through scenes they can't handle, we could feel less bad about being pretty harsh with people who
just up and disappear on RP as soon as they see someone after them"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "We're at the end of our time, so let me summarize my understanding of where we are:
- Players support people staff puppet to a death scene getting no RPxp
- Players support broader announcements for liquidations
- Players support contested liquidations = removal of the character, but a dice roll chance of
successful fleeing and regular RPxp return"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Meiari nods
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at Temi.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
AlleyGirl states, "All sounds fine with me. Though I think fleeing shouldn't be an option for those
in captivity if they aren't willing to RP it."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at AlleyGirl.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "I think that means staff dice outcomes need to fit the scenario the player is in."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "Oh, I wanted to eliminate needing QP to request a wrap up or contest a liquidation."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi states, "Die in a prison brawl instead of getting away."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi grins.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Otbert muses, "Mh, well, there is big charts for the dice odds for prison escapes and such, but they
also depend on the captors being able to RP with the captive to strengthen their side for example.
Maybe captors just get their RP bonuses by default then?"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve claims, "I think it puts a barrier in the way of people who are our existing pbase dealing
with a semi-shitty situation in favor of someone who isn't upholding their side of the RP"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "Okay, we should wrap up for today. Thank you for participating and giving us your
thoughts and perspectives."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Meiari claims, "Thank you <3"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi states, "But yeah, we can account for prison liquidations in the final version"
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Temi nods.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Sparkles waves.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "We'll work on fixing up liquidation and wrap-up policy to match this pattern."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve nods at Temi.
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve says, "And we'll keep the protections that currently exist for people who are trying to get RP
while in prison but are struggling to get RP."
[RPXP Gain: none] [HP:perfect MV:weary P:walk] (hooded)(bathed)
Maeve states, "Okay, retransing shortly."
