Yes. The only hints of Tully's accent will be "Ye" and "boyo". I won't use anything else since accents don't make sense when writing.

It definatly sounds interesting. One thing to try to get more entries is to ask everyone (well, everyone that won't kill Tully on sight) who's interested to contact you with requests of people to add. While Tully may not be around for too long, others have much longer memories and probably wouldn't mind if you interviewed them about themselves or someone from history long gone.

Of course, though, nothing OOC. Nothing from the forums, IMs, chat, Wiki, ext. I'm sure SOMEONE still alive can give you some good dirt on Guido, though.

Actually, don't put "ye" and "boyo" in there. I can't recall ever seeing dwarven writing with "ye" in it. Don't people with accents usually write normally? Like Daganev?

Well, first off Richter, he's writing in common, not dwarfish.

The only thing about ye and boyo is the former is an archaic version of "you", the latter is just his nickname for person, sort of like "fergetaboutit". Archaic terms can be used in literature--just open up a King James Bible or read some high school shakespeare. I always liked Elmister's writings Ed Greenwood would use, that was the "Ye" inspiration. I'll try to only pepper people with the boyo part though.

What I probably will do is write a score or more biographies, then have the tome submitted to Nok, then I will keep expanding it after it's been reviewed etc., assuming that's allowed. I want to make it something like the Elder Wars book where people start looking forward to updates, etc.

As far as OOC--I understand--although I did think the quotes thread could be explained as rumours some of the denziens hear and then tell you. Heck, somebody messaged me about "still gonna write that book", and I don't think I ever mentioned it in game.

Wait, you're gonna add ooc stuff in the book?

And after a year, we don't have HELP FAMOUSPLAYERS?

I think what we need to do is have the admins send a short message to each person they think was heavilly influencial or popular over the last year, have that person message back a short description of what they think should be included, and then have the admins write what they think about that person from a historical point of view, taking into account the things the person said about themselves.

This would allow for a (somewhat/mostly) unbiased group to add people to this, and it would also allow a player to maybe get something critical to them, that the gods don't know about, in the helpfile.

No, I didn't say I would add OOC, I just thought the quotes thread counted as possible "in game" stuff, since you were making that public to the player base.

I would hate for something I said in quotes to be in a book in-game. Usually the contents of that thred is the stupid stuff that we say.

Aww.. you don't want a joke book or a funny pages? hehe I think it would be funny to have something like that in a book, but not as part of the book that Phred's proposing here.

I do like the idea of this book too, put Kayde in it.

Provided said quote is on a place Phred could have listen to...
I mean, if I say a joke by somebody on raezon orders said over the order aether... I think Raezon would be angry at anybody disclosing that kind of order stuff, or that person being publically shown to be in said order (Divine chosen just because it's misterious. Not because being in his order is only for tainted beings and tends to bring problems to the members )

"She serves Lord Lacostian as I believe the leader of her order, thus the title Mystericon. I believe she is the right hand of Lacostian in the Basin as Marina Whytetower is the left hand as an Oracle, at least from what little I know of her. Although sometimes I wonder if even she knows as much as she says she knows."

*sniffle*

I was refering to Ialie, not you.

I was wondering just how much Lacostian revealed to Ialie before he started his project.

Oh. Tully.

It sounds like a good idea, although Tully would have to actually travel round the basin to meet more people he wants to put in it. You don't have to put too sensitive information in it, maybe focus on the personality and facts available to the public.

Hate this idea. Hate hate hate it to death . I'd much rather we, as characters, produce something like this ourselves. As Tully is trying to.

See...I'm not ALWAYS mean to you.

*pout*

I demand a spot in famousplayers.

Guido = No mortal has ever tried to screw the system as this one has.

I think that your idea is very good, Tully. Especially as it is not just about straight facts but also would include assumptions and such.

Sounds great. I actually had a similar idea in mind.. just never have the time or patience to focus on a book.

Do one on me! Malicia the Meanie.

Oh write about me!
