The voices of the Charites tell you, "We've received your letter, and will begin modifying
the designs as soon as we've sorted through a few of our other commitments."

You tell The Charites, the Administrators of Crafts, "Excellent to hear, thank You!"

The voices of the Charites tell you, "We appreciate your supremely helpful attitude
throughout this ordeal! Have a pleasant evening!"

How can people complain about the Charites, they're so gosh-darn pleasant :wub:

...My viola design, I completely forgot about it

I really feel the need to reiterate my previous rave, but with increased emphasis on Shedrin for an awesome discussion. Waiting on Draylor and Viynain to complete my rave/appreciation pentagon.

They are! Whoever plays them actually teleported? me into a room just to explain some of the aspects of crafting here after I sent an issue me with questions. Instead of answering through messages or tells, they went as far as personal interaction. I was very impressed.

They went to a rival school.

We had a small issue over two out of a set of three matching designs being accepted, while parts of it were technically Very Bad Things. So after a few rejections to the third design, they just pulled me up into their little pad and were like, 'You're not going to like this BUT xyz'.

They weren't mean, pushy, or just reading things from a prompter. They seemed genuinely sorry that the entire issue had to come up, and allowed me to take back the accepted designed and rework them. It was a very, very pleasant experience, overall. And yes, personal interaction as opposed to messages is SO much better, and very much appreciated <3

Edit: Very, very many very's.

Manual debating and winning :D

Is...is debating manually a weird thing? >_>

Ditto. I am pretty much fully manual for debating. (Run off nothing but aliases.)

I'd be too afraid to let a system automate that for me, I lose enough as is :P

Debating is another thing I get my wife to do for me.

When I say manual I mean I typed out all the commands, other than sipping.

Usually I do use aliases and stuff though.

I think a rave is in order for all the players (especially Morbo) who calmly helped us sort out the confusion during the War games today! Events are always hectic and a bit stressful (for admins and the players), and I can certainly tell you everyone in the Havens appreciated those who were patient with us and helped settle plans for tomorrow's conclusion.

Here's to hoping tomorrow and future War challenge will go much more smoothly!

Holy cats. Here's a rave to Nocht's forum avatar and Ehecatl's super keen artistic skills. That's a gorgeous rendition of Nocht.

Going back to lorecraft. How I have missed my philosopher's stone.

And vice versa. I threw you a few curveballs there.

They were nice surprises. I like opportunities to go off-script.

Raves to Druken for the shiny new dirigible he gave me. I must promptly use this to deliver teas and snootiness to everyone Eliron likes and to dirigitroll his older brother with odd and unusually timed presents.

MY VERY FIRST SEAL VICTORY WOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Thanks everyone for the support and kind words. This was the first time combat has made my heartrate jacked since last war seal. I'm a gaggle of sweaty tiredness now!
