Azarial wonders, "Anyone have any topics to raise?"
Azarial nods.
Azarial muses, "Anyone want to scrubem then? we'l get this show started"
Azarial claims, "Sribe, rather"
Zarryka has no topic. Nor does she know how to do the log.
Azarial states, "Right then. So it will be staff updates, state of the world, the any topics."
Steven says, "Was someone being a big turkey this week"
Azarial states, "I;ve been working on finishing cleaning up the crafting change; most of the issues should be resolved. otherwise minor typos and unremarkable code changes. trying to get back into the saddle after the drama earlier this year."
Azarial states, "Someone ahd requested turkey sandwiches if nothing else came up."
Azarial wonders, "Temi?"
Theodora says, "I've got the log if no one is doing it."
Temi says, "They asked for turkey sammiches last week"
Steven rofls
Mitch questions, "Drama earlier this year?"
Theodora muses, "Did it get fixed where items you don't have are highlighted again?"
Azarial says, "Car accidents, the flu, colds, etc, etc, etc."
Temi states, "I have been working on magecrafting standards, but currently I am at my parents for Easter"
Temi claims, "I did manage a very cute Easter egg hunt for the pups woth brightly colored squeaky balls, but I don't imagine that helps you all a lot"
Steven asks, "Do we have an april fools day event this year?"
Temi claims, "And that is about it for me."
Zarryka claims to Steven, "Everyone's going to live."
Azarial states, "No clue. I've been busy woth code and RL. spring break in kindergarden eats my time."
Temi claims, "Unlikely, unless Niamh is bored"
Temi claims, "I am not sure when I will be getting home"
Azarial states, "She might be; the boards have been pretty clear. she;s been handling those almost immediately."
Steven claims, "Shes pretty awesome about getting things done fast."
A flurry of fiery-colored leaves sweep across the area, rapidly coalescing into the winged shape of Niamh. [OOC]
Niamh waves.
Jardir places his right fist over his heart in salute.
Steven claims, "SPEAKETH HER NAME"
Steven says, "And she arrives."
Farra states, "Yeah I've been having a lot of problems getting Niamh to-- oh uh nm"
Steven claims, "Azarial was just talking about how you were probably bored because the boards have been empty via you."
Niamh grumbles.
Steven says, "And how we should send you tons of work."
Farra has lost link.
Niamh states, "Yeah, just like, somebody send in a request for a confusing 50+ room phome please."
Azarial queries, "How about a new olc?"
Zarryka says, "We were not totally planning on massive requests in the next 45 minutes. Nope, not at all."
Niamh claims to Azarial, "YES."
Azarial grins.
Azarial says, "I still need to get the platonic ideals written for the cfafting thing."
Azarial muses, "Do you have a report fr this week, or have the boards been barren enough you have nothing?"
Steven claims, "I could probably add another 10 rooms to my home."
Zarryka states to Niamh, "I once designed a 20+ room ship that made Takta's jaw drop."
Niamh states, "I can't think of a single thing outside the norm that I did this week... Building requests, typos, recommends, I think that might be it, and there weren't a plethora of those."
Niamh says, "Wasn't? Weren't? Whichever."
Niamh grins at Zarryka.
Temi states to Niamh, "They asked about april fools events, and I said probably not, but if so it would be because you were bored"
Steven muses to Niamh, "Do you have an april fools event planned or are you gonna be busy with family?"
Niamh states to Temi, "OoOoOooo"
Prisca declares, "Pyre the queen!"
Niamh states to Steven, "I might toss something together."
Steven says, "You do love pranks."
Niamh nods in agreement.
Zarryka trails off, "Pyre the GI! In their office....with the doors barricaded....."
Zarryka , moves about shiftily.
emote raises a hand.
Theodora raises a hand.
(This is an OOC room. Nothing counts for rpxp here.)
Azarial queries, "How has RP been this week?"
Niamh claims to Zarryka, "I think Theodora's about to swat you."
Steven states, "Excellent."
Steven says, "I have a new Proconsul."
Steven states, "Im super happy."
Niamh grins at Steven.
Niamh claims, "Nice."
Steven trails off, "Now I just need Reeves... to Reeve"
Mitch claims, "Fewer scenes than i would like but the ones i had are alright"
Niamh declaims, "It's Norrig!"
Norrig claims, "Sorry about that."
Norrig bows respectfully.
Theodora tries to suddenly act busy and not a lazy Bard.
Norrig looks left and right: "What's popping, heretics."
Steven claims, "Your mom."
Mitch muses, "Are there no Reeves right now?"
Azarial asks, "Anything bugging anyone taht staff needs to look at?"
Niamh states to Norrig, "My "tasker emoji" clicker-finger is tingling."
Steven states, "There are but we need guard types."
Norrig says to Azarial, "Hmm."
Steven states, "Axes display in equipment."
Azarial claims, "On the docket"
Niamh states to Steven, "Rofl."
Steven says, "I shall plug this til its off the docket."
Prisca states, "I've got something at Kin, but probably doesn't need mention here yet"
Norrig queries, "I believe I complain a lot lately. But could we address why missing recipe requirements aren't reddened anymore?"
Niamh pats the Justicar.
Azarial says, "Should be resolved"
Jardir declaims, "MORE KNIGHTS, TO KNIGHT!"
Bemhil says, "Regarding a forum post: Could we get a little more guidance on the differences between simple recipes and gourmet recipes? I know there is a good bit of grey area there, but it seems less worth it to invest in mastering cooking if simple dishes can be just as masterful."
Mitch asks, "I typo boarded a suggestion to some help files and got QP for it but as far as I can tell the suggestion wasn't actually implemented?"
Norrig claims to Bemhil, "They recover far more stamina."
Norrig states to Azarial, "Thanks."
Niamh says, "If it's gone and you got QP for it, it was done. It might not have been done in the precise way you suggested it, but if it's the one I recall, adjustments were made."
Steven states, "Would be neat if higher level cooking added an affect like well fed where you gain a slight boost to con or movement."
Temi says, "I like the idea in general, but it would take some effort"
Niamh asks of Mitch, "A seealso in a helpfile, I think?"
Safir states, "Gourmet recovers more stamina, as Norrig said. I'd like to see some leeway with gourmet, what might be gourmet cooking in Vavard and gourmet cooking in Charali is going to be very different. "
Mitch states, "Okeydoke, thanks Niamh"
Niamh nods at Mitch.
Azarial states, "Anyone else/"
Prisca claims, "I think it's funny that gourmet stuff provides more recovery, but when I go to a fancy restaurant in RL, all the dishes are dainty morsels that hardly do anything."
Zarryka questions to Steven, "Is that from FFXIV?"
Niamh says, "Culture has definitely changed from thin = poor."
Azarial nods at Niamh.
Steven says, "Could be. Never played it much Zarryka"
say I have a topic for when we get there.
Theodora states, "I have a topic for when we get there."
(This is an OOC room. Nothing counts for rpxp here.)
Azarial claims, "We can probably open with the topic, then, since no one else ha something shitting them."
Norrig states, "Hmm."
Azarial states, "And afaict no one else has offered a topic"
Norrig claims, "I have one."
Norrig raises his hand like a Good Boy (TM).
Temi questions, "Did I miss anything important there?"
Steven claims, "Attaboy"
Steven pets the freeman.
Azarial states, "Not too much, I think. jsut a comparrison to modern gourmet, and niamh commenting on the change from poor == thin"
Temi nods.
Norrig eyes Steven warily.
Steven gives a biscuit?
Steven queries, "Theodoooora. Whats your topic?"
Norrig narrows his eyes on Theodora: "Apprentice."
Theodora claims, "I'd like to bring forward the idea that the suggested updates or expansions to Scribe - IE, taking Artwork skill (like retooling does for other skills) or utilizes actual materials in some way be more heavily considered a quality of life thing. Case in point, I am preparing a ballet with scripts and will want to pass them about, and that it would cost IC silver for the OOC convenience of not needing to format and space et al (which can be a total pain) detracts from the joy of doing that. "
Norrig claims, "I did not understand that."
Norrig nods.
Steven says, "Scribe is rather expensive."
Norrig says, "Ah."
Azarial states, "Bookmaking is all by hand, and the costs reflect that."
Azarial states, "The printing press will not be invented"
Niamh ponders, "I think we went over the scribing thread from the forums at a Staff meeting and felt pretty positive about it, but needed to put it as a low-priority thing."
Steven states, "Maybe make it differentiate in cost based on number of pages"
Steven asks, "?"
say yeah, what I'm requesting is well, the priority be reconsidered I suppose
Theodora says, "Yeah, what I'm requesting is well, the priority be reconsidered I suppose"
Steven states, "I wouldnt mind seeing Troubs do play bills"
Niamh finishes her note.
Niamh states to Theodora, "Bumped it in talking points."
say that's the very thing I want to do, I brought that up in RP actually
Theodora says, "That's the very thing I want to do, I brought that up in RP actually"
Steven states, "Of course, could probably use a rather wealthy noble benefactor too."
Steven tips monocle.
Prisca says, "I'd definitely seek out PC scribes if I could get books copied for a bit less ICly."
Azarial claims, "Norrig, you had something"
Azarial wonders, "?"
Norrig states, "Yes."
Norrig clears his throat: "Just a reminder to respect GL popularity when doing rumors and rumor promotes, unless it's a very specific thing that merits a particularly strong reaction. This isn't about me only, but I'm seeing it in most if not all GLs who get unfairly treated for good or ill."
Steven states, "I believe there was a policy addition about that recently"
Jardir , looks at guildleader, a sea of entrenched.
Steven wonders, "Wasnt there?"
Niamh states, "This is actually a part of rumor policy now, as of a week or so ago."
Norrig says, "Yes, but I still don't see it respected."
Niamh nods at Steven.
Norrig states, "Two weeks I think."
Steven questions, "Report the rumors we see that seem to go against the policy maybe, staff?"
Jardir wonders, "But what if the rumor is coming from someone just trying to stir up shit about a guildleader, rather than some background VNPC?"
Niamh nods at Steven.
Prisca says, "Be sure to report policy-breaking rumors so they can be reviewed"
Niamh nods at Prisca.
Norrig says to Jardir, "Then post a new rumor with yourself as the source."
Temi claims, "It doesn't necessarily have to be a profound action"
Norrig wonders to Temi, "Hm?"
Jardir asks, "Oh, is this just for responses to a rumor rather than the original one itself?"
Temi claims, "But it does need to be about specific events or topics"
Norrig states to Jardir, "Yes."
Norrig claims to Jardir, "Both."
Temi claims, "Not just general 'they suck'"
Norrig claims, "So don't accuse a GL of incompetence if he or she is Entrenched, and the opposite as well."
Theodora claims, "The difficulty is usually it's not the rumor itself, it's the comments, and a single comment can turn an otherwise fine rumor into a trash fire. Which is I why truly, truly I wished responses were numbered and individual ones could be reported rather than the rumor as a collective"
Norrig says to Theodora, "I agree completely."
Temi states, "But you can accuse an entrenched gl of patronizing the peacock"
Norrig nods at Temi.
Norrig tugs on his collar nervously.
Prisca claims, "Remember you're putting words into the mouth of NPCs when you post/reply to a rumor, so be sure it's in line with what it should be. It's not just your character's opinion that matters"
Steven says, "I dont see why some negative comments cant be made about an entrenched GL. Folks talk shit about even loved people."
Temi claims, "You can also report for the comments just describe what"
Prisca nods in agreement with Theodora.
Steven states, "Its when its excessive that it gets bad."
Norrig states to Steven, "Not when posting a rumor with npcs as the source
"Temi claims to Steven, "We are just requiring they be specific now"
Norrig nods.
Niamh says to Steven, "They can, but because it gets so excessive and detracts so completely from the point of fostering approval, they need to be about something specific if the GL is loved."
Steven questions, "So someone can still cause malcontent over me just because Im a great lord if say class relations are terrible yes?"
Norrig says, "Also, pay for your damn rumors or expect a Troubadour Sass Squad on your doorstep."
Steven says, "Cause I feel that would be appropriate. Things like that."
Norrig claims to Steven, "Maybe. But on account of being high society rather than Justiciar."
Niamh claims, "If it was "DOWN WITH THE RICH, DOWN WITH THE LORDS" yes. If it was "That guy is the worst Justiciar ever (has entrenched support)" no."
Steven states, "Goooooood"
Steven says, "Mhemm, carry on good sir."
Azarial states, "'do not anger a bard, for your name is silly and scans to 'greensleeves'.'"
Azarial questions, "Right then. anyone else?"
Niamh grins at Azarial.
Prisca questions, "Do we have an event today?"
Norrig exclaims, "No, but we could make one. Spring Awakening is coming!"
Prisca claims, "Oh right, the one I was thinking of is next week."
Azarial muses, "No other topics, then?"
Azarial claims, "We have a qurter of an hour left."
Niamh claims, "DANCE TIME"
Steven claims, "DANCE PARTY"
Norrig claims, "Hmm."
Zarryka claims to Norrig, "The Knight King will be riding a giant undead rabbit leading his army of zombie eggs."
Temi says, "Make sure you got your sammich "
Norrig thinks for a few moments: "Yes Zarr. Duly noted. I had something else to say..."
Niamh claims, "Mmmm."
Azarial nods at Norrig.
Norrig claims, "Hey I didn't get muh meeting item."
Steven states, "Its turkey sandwiches"
Steven states, "Nomnomnom"
Prisca claims, "Went to costco yesterday. picked up a party tray of BLT wraps to eat by myself."
Temi states, "I am on phone, so i just set them out"
Steven claims, "Beam me down scotty"
Zarryka readies her stabbing hand.
Mitch queries, "I gotta dip early, can someone beam me back down?"
Norrig shrugs: "Anyways. I can't remember so it's probably not that important?"
Azarial states, "Thanks for coming, then, and see you next week"
