I shudder to think what going in some of these stockrooms looks like with paranoia/dementia up.

That's exactly why I want a RT. If there's never any conflict between racial loyalty and city loyalty, then things get dull. If there's never a question if you should help Acknor enslave furrikin for the good of your city, or free them to help your kin, you lose out on a lot of interesting RP.

Arath... Biker Mice from Mars?!?!

I was like 10 years old when that show was on. Wow.

The Ambassador (and possibly his aides) should have a command that shows, about a non-citizen of his city/commune, all relevant enemy statuses: that is, is he enemied to any guilds in my commune? to any orders of divine within my commune's pantheon? to any spirits that my commune's guilds can brand enemies to? (Naturally it wouldn't show other enemy statuses like to clans or to guilds in other cities, just to those associated with the city of which he is the ambassador.)

Yes please.

Call it CITY PORTFOLIO!

This would be lovely.

EDIT: Also, if it isn't taken, I nominate CITY DOSSIER.

Something wrong with that? It was a great show, even compared to the average quality of shows back then.

Dear GOD please.

I've been thinking of idea'ing the same thing.

Ambassador is a nightmare if several of your city's guilds are inactive (like in Mag).

You spammed with me with questions D:

(But it's okay! )

Yeah...I was actually trying to REMEMBER these things...but I made a list instead, because there's too much bull :censor: to remember.

PRICE POLICY ADD GROUP CELEST_ENEMY 0 or the like would be quite nice. Unless there's some way to refuse enemies to an org from purchasing things in a city shop without denying every citizen of all the other orgs that I'm missing.

I'm pretty sure there is something of the sort, since I hear that shops are frequently required to refuse service to enemies.

I know that through clever use of permissions, aethershops can do it, but the syntax doesn't seem to work for city shops. Like I said, I might just be missing something.

Nope, there's no actual way to do it, other than listing all the enemies one by one (and even that won't work unless you have very, very few, because there's a low ceiling in number of policies).

Since when have governments limited their requirements to things that are possible, though? Your reasoning is far too logical for politics.

Alrighty then.


That's why I keep getting in trouble then .

No, not really. They can restrict entry into the manse, but not from buying from the actual shop.

Hmm. Could the Forging tradeskill be distributed out to everyone instead of just being picked up by warriors? Not that I'd have any use for the trans ability, but I'd like to be able to forge nonetheless and make use of my forging cartel myself!

If you get Forging, I want Alchemy.

Dibs on enchantment.
