Subj: The Forests of Faethorn

While Mother Night and Mother Moon both desire my allegiance, I will
continue to favor which one brings to me my Sceptre. Let it be known,
however, that the sceptre will not hold for longer than two consecutive
terms under either Night or Moon. If Faethorn is under the sway after
two consecutive terms, the sceptre shall break and I will claim my
neutrality once more.

Further, let it be known that the forests of Faethorn will herewith be
my personal sylvan forests. The nature of these forests cannot be
changed by the abomination magics of those called mages. For those
druids who wish to meld my sylvan forests, you will all be treated
equally and thus must make the sylvan forests sympathetic to the forests
you oversee.


YAY!!

Subj: Entering Special Portals

Those exits you ENTER through (archways, etc.) will act more like normal
exits in that you need balance, equilibrium, will hobble if only one leg
is usable, can't exit if both legs are crippled, will slip on ice, etc.



YAY!!

You can also LOOK THROUGH to see what's on the other
side.

This does not work for dimensional rifts.



YAY!!

Subj: Election #54022 Results

Alyssandra Ab'Sidhe has just replaced Great Chieftain Gwylifar llyrFarathan as
Guildmaster of Serenguard.


Boo!



So, yeah, thank you, Estarra! And you have my condolances, Serenguard.

<3 Estarra, I'm sorry Serenguard.

And, I bugged it, but given the tone of the announce posts, Pathtwist does *not* stop people from entering portals still.

Penned by my hand on the 2nd of Vestian, in the year 124 CE.

It means that Mages can't taint/flood

And now Hartstone has to forest it before being able to meld.

It also means that loyalty to Moon will break ever 2 years.

I'm just going to imagine you didn't post.

Because, really, you didn't.

Read the FIRST POST in this thread. I believe this has been covered!

EDIT: As in, Richter wasn't asking what the post meant. He's not blind/deaf/dumb/totally retarded.

He's asking why the hell you posted something already posted.

Part of my post got cut out, unfortunately. Dunno what happened.

Edit: And I didn't notice it until after I replied to Richter, since it just seemed like he was quoting that part of my post and going 'huh?'

Anyway, I think the sylvan forest thing is stupid, because we've proved in the past it doesn't actually give Hartstone an advantage. And it's sort of sad to see the Administration cave to a baseless complaint.

It was done simply so they no longer had to listen to Glomdoring whine and complain. Honestly, if it's so irrelevant, it doesn't matter that it's neutral, for that very reason.

However, for an RP sense, it just seems stupid to me. But, oh well. Live and let live.

I'm waiting for the upgrade to Celestia and Nil, I want statues and guards throughout the plane too.

Ever learned to say please, Daevos?

Glomdoring whining? I'm pretty sure it was the Seren bitching about me demesning up there. Pretty sure you were the ones bitching about the archways as well.

Edit: Oh yeah, Nil and Celestia should be impossible to demesne by anyone except the relevant mages.

But yes, the changes are nice, I'd like to see how they change the conflict overall, should be interesting to watch.

Yah, okay, we complained about you demesning up there, but we complained also for the archways to be removed, nothing else (I think).

Oh yeah, I forgot: Thanks for the changes! They are pretty good, although I'd have prefered archways to fade away into nothingness.

Well, if Celestia and Nil linked Celest and Magnagora, and the two of you had a battle that lasted FAR too long, they might give it constant changes as well.



It was like 70% serenwilde 30% glomdoring in the whining. I didn't see us asking for as many changes, I heard lots of serenwilders talking about jumping in and out of the archways and stuff.

But it has been Glomdoring since day one "bitching" about having to infest Faethorn, while we don't have to forceforest. Of course, once they infest, we have to force, so, it's a moot point. They've wasted a net of 81 power, 86 if they do Maeve's tree. GASP EGADS ZOMG.

As to Richter, I don't think it will change much if anything, I'm afraid.

It won't for a simple reason - Kaervas will just jog through and Terrain Marsu's demesne. The only think that will change is that there won't be raids when Marsu isn't around.

Not that you have Aquamancers available to terrain your own demesnes or anything.

Quite true. We do use Anisu. Note, I'm not complaining. I think it's stupid, and our demesne shouldn't be terrainable by mages, but I ignore it.

I find it amusing, though, that you terrain a tainted wasteland, and they knock the Aquamancers for allegedly projecting a taint illusion.

Each their own. Winning > RP, for some, I guess.

Serenwilde bitches about our bitching more than we actually bitch.

Or did I just blow your mind?
