Fifteenth Meeting of the Yew Council

From Atlantic Roleplay Wiki

Thrawn: okay, let's begin then

Gotter McVay: ah

Pyros: Gotter

Pyros: grab a seat

Thrawn: thank you for coming

Thrawn: first, I'd like to briefly mention our guildstone

Thrawn: we had problems with the old one, strange behavior

Thrawn: so we were given a new one

Thrawn: unfortunately

Thrawn: everybody that was on the old stone must be added a new to this one

Pyros: Hail Laein, haven't seen you in a while

Laein Simorian: *smiles*

Laein Simorian: Hello

Thrawn: so if you are not on the new stone yet, have someone who is sponsor you

Thrawn: and you will be admitted as soon as possible

Laein Simorian: Tis okay

Thrawn: so spread the word on that if you will

Thrawn: to others who may have been on the stone but now find themselves off it

Thrawn: also, on the same topic

Laein Simorian: Ahh

Thrawn: with this new stone, the war with OES has not been renewed as of yet

Pyros: Nor will it be

Thrawn: it seems obvious from difficulties with the war

Thrawn: and whining and accusations from both sides

Thrawn: that a true "roleplaying war" seems a bit like wishful thinking

Thrawn: we will look at other avenues to interact with them perhaps

Lord Rainbow King says Might I ask a qustion on that?

Thrawn: and listen to suggestions

Thrawn: sure, go ahead

Lord Rainbow King says Perhaps it would be better to surround 'roleplaying wars' as you call them with

Lord Rainbow King says abit more background and story.... Roleplaying isn't decided on the fact

Thrawn: that is not my term for them, that's just what ive heard it called

Laein Simorian: *waves*

Lord Rainbow King says wether or not people use Aye's and thee's but on the fact wether or not their actions

Lord Rainbow King says represent a role and a story or just human reactions

Lord Rainbow King says Just my view on it

Thrawn: right, good point

Thrawn: I am sure many agree with you on that

Lord Rainbow King says We're supposed to be rp, so does OES the fact both fight each other

 : Lord Rainbow King says doesn't make it a rp-war

Thrawn: *nods*

Thrawn: would anybody else like to comment on the war?

Lord Ni'Vek III says Perhaps Gath?

Jared Farstrider: speaketh of the dark one...

Gath of Baal: Hello flesh slugs.

Gath of Baal: *Crackles*

Adi Mundi: flesh slugs? how uplifting

Thrawn: Gath would you like to comment at all on the "war" at all? we were just about

Thrawn: finished discussing it

Thrawn: ok, I guess not

Thrawn: hello Dyluck

Dyluck Blade: Hiya

Gath of Baal says Ermm

Gath of Baal says The war?

Thrawn: the one which existed between OES and Yew

Gath of Baal says What about it?

Thrawn: we just discussed how the new stone had elminated the official state of war

Thrawn: and that we had no intentions at this time to renew the war

Thrawn: since you were late, I offered you a chance to comment

Gath of Baal says Well, I cannot speak for my men..

Gath of Baal says But as for myself..

Gath of Baal says I do not see any reason to jump right back into war at this point.

Gath of Baal says Of course thats just my opinion.

Thrawn: very well, thank you

Thrawn: next, I would just like to point out some other resources

Thrawn: to keep up with what is going on with the town of Yew and the Council

Thrawn: with the help of Pyros, we have recently moved our web site

Gath of Baal says Very well.

Thrawn: to a new location... actually the old location Gargish used

Thrawn: I strongly suggest people check there a few times each week

Thrawn: for news and updates

Thrawn: as well as read the message boards and forums for hot topics

Thrawn: there is also a voting booth where you can express your opinion

Thrawn: the topic right now has to do with the faction wars

Thrawn: which we will discuss in a moment

Thrawn: so.. get out those quill pens and parchment

Thrawn: and write down this address....

Thrawn: http://yewcouncil.brenner.de

Thrawn: that.s yewcouncil.brenner.de

Thrawn: *gives everybody a moment to write it down*

Thrawn: ok, next topic

Thrawn: now, it seems like Juonar has been defeated and Trinsic has been freed

Thrawn: I would just like to thank everybody who helped in the battles there

Shade: *curses*

Thrawn: and congratulate the Militia and all the brave warriors and mages

Thrawn: who were able to pull together and rid the town of the acursed undead

Thrawn: it was a major victory to the forces of good throughout Britannia

Thrawn: so cheers to those who helped free Trinsic!

Thrawn: and rememberance for those courageous souls who lost their lives there!

Gotter McVay: aye

Jared Farstrider: *nods solemly*

Gath of Baal says Feh

Dyluck Blade: That's a crappy cheer

Pyros: heh

Thrawn: last week, much of the meeting was used to discuss the upcoming faction wars

Thrawn: so I would like to open the discussion on that mater again

Thrawn: several plans and lines of reasoning were discussed

Thrawn: and I am anxious to hear more ideas and opinions on the matter

Gotter McVay: *raises hand*

Thrawn: Gotter

Dunedain: please summarize for those of us who missed last meeting

Gotter McVay: I think we should stay out of it and

Gotter McVay: go to the new land

Gotter McVay: we can have guild war there

Dyluck Blade: *raises hand*

Gotter McVay: we dont need a town that

Gotter McVay: is a battleground for

Gotter McVay: every twink on the shard

Thrawn: okay, thank you Gotter... let me summarize quickly, yhen Dyluck can speak

Thrawn: some share Gotter's opnion

Thrawn: some suggested making many friends among the Guilds we know, and fighting

Thrawn: in the wars to gain true control over our town

Thrawn: and some suggested having a presence in both worlds

Thrawn: another suggestion was preparing well in advance

Thrawn: and tryng to take the leads in the wars and win by being organized well

Thrawn: and yet another idea was to try out the wars, and be prepared to leave for the

Thrawn: new lands if the war was filled with "twinks" and such

Thrawn: I think that briefly sums up most of the suggestions...

Knightmare: I am sorry, but something has come up, and I must be excused.....

Thrawn: now, Dyluck?

Knightmare: Farewell.

Pyros: zfarewell

Dyluck Blade: Alright, I think we should just wait and see til the new lands come out

Dyluck Blade: I mean, we have no idea who is going

Dyluck Blade: Both sides will have dewds, twinks, whatever you call em

Dyluck Blade: Just some will be red, and some will be working for a faction

Dyluck Blade: The only advantage I see to the new lands is it's easier to hunt there

Thrawn: fair point, thank you

Thrawn: anybody else have something to add?

Dunedain: yes

Thrawn: go ahead

Lord Ni'Vek III says Who?

Dunedain: i am not sure what the official school posityion is

Dyluck Blade: I do

Dunedain: while there will be another town of Yew

Dunedain: to go to in the new lands

Dunedain: there will not be another WYU

Dunedain: it is player built

Dunedain: unless we build a new school

Dunedain: we are stuck here

Dunedain: for good or bad

Thrawn: good point

Dunedain: and we do not have the staff

Dunedain: to run two schools

Thrawn: I have asked the Seers and even a GM about transferring such places to the new

Thrawn: to the new lands if they so wish

Thrawn: I have yet to get an answer yet

GreyPawn: May I comment?

Thrawn: certainly

Lord Rainbow King says I would like to respond on that as well

GreyPawn: As of yet, there are no intended plans to transfer any type of community...

GreyPawn: Blessed or not.....from one realm to the other.

GreyPawn: I've confirmed this with several Seers, and Dev Team members.

Thrawn: thank you then for clearing that up

Thrawn: so, in effect, we would need to start from scratch?

GreyPawn: *nods*

Thrawn: hmmm... another thing to consider... an important one.. thank you GreyPawn

Thrawn: Rainbow King?

Lord Rainbow King says Well personaly I feel the discussion about transferring communities to be a void one

Lord Rainbow King says IF we decide to go to the new lands

Lord Rainbow King says Wether or not our presence their will be assisted by our green friends

Lord Rainbow King says Should be based on our actions.. as they used to be

Lord Rainbow King says Not on the fact wether or not we already acquired those rights in an ancient past

Lord Rainbow King says IF we transfer it will take alot of work

Lord Rainbow King says And based on that work they will make their decision

Lord Rainbow King says Simply asking for it seems like a bad thing, even if they would grant it

Lord Rainbow King says Just my personal view on it

Thrawn: fair enough, thank you... would either Seer like to comment on this?

Lady Seer Magdalena: *laughs*

Lord Ni'Vek III says I would like to toss something back out on the faction war topic.....

GreyPawn says I don't think they are going to touch that with a ten foot pole.

Lady Seer Magdalena: Not in particular.

Dunedain: may i speak again

Lady Seer Magdalena: But what I should add..

Lord Rainbow King says Does anyone have a ten foot pole stuck in his backpack?

Lady Seer Magdalena: is that a final decision on councils has not yet been made.

Lady Seer Magdalena: But I wouldn't make your plans to count on it.

Thrawn: thank you Lena

Thrawn: Nivek then Dunedain

Lord Ni'Vek III says Well, just my opinion....

Lord Ni'Vek III says since I deal with the "twinks" and pks more often than I'd like to

Lord Ni'Vek III says But with the factions, do you not vote for a leader?

Lord Ni'Vek III says And does the leader have any control over who is in the faction?

Pyros: yes you may vote for the people in the 2 highest ranks

Thrawn: correct, but the leaders much have high "kill counts" to run for election

Gotter McVay: SO the PKs will be king

Gotter McVay: excellant

Lord Ni'Vek III says But, the pks who are in guilds

Lord Ni'Vek III says will have to give up their guild wars to go in a faction

Lord Ni'Vek III says My estimation is that few of the factions will be well organized

Lord Ni'Vek III says and that most will have internal squabbling

Lord Ni'Vek III says I think the system is poorly designed

Gath of Baal says Indeed

Gotter McVay: aye

Pyros: *nods*

Lord Ni'Vek III says But, it does directly involve Yew.

Lord Ni'Vek III says Since it will be a faction town.

Lord Rainbow King says The system leaves a small opening to take advantage of though

Lord Rainbow King says In my opinion the group who can work the best with the others and can overcome

Lord Ni'Vek III says Agreed...

Lord Rainbow King says it's internal strugglings and futes the best has a chance

Lord Rainbow King says That goes for pvp and rp groups

Lord Ni'Vek III says But it's nearly impossible to organize random people.

Lord Ni'Vek III says Especially bloodthirsty ones

Lord Rainbow King says Perhaps this could be a test how well we can work together instead of against each other

Lord Ni'Vek III says Also agreed.

Lord Ni'Vek III says I would love to see a bunch of guilds come together

Lord Ni'Vek III says and fight for one cause

Lord Ni'Vek III says Could be fun and interesting....

Lord Ni'Vek III says or it could be stupid and annoying...

Thrawn: indeed, there are still a lot of unknowns

Lord Ni'Vek III says it really depends on how smoothly the whole system works... and how devoted people

Lord Ni'Vek III says are to making it work

Thrawn: *nods*

Thrawn: thank you.. Dunedain?

Dunedain: thank you

Dunedain: the reason i believe the gods will not assist in transfering established

Dunedain: communities

Dunedain: is that they dont want the new lands

Dunedain: filled upo with veterens

Dunedain: it will be a nece safe place for newbies to thrive and develop

Dunedain: and the gods need room foor the newbies

Dunedain: they really want us veterans to remain hrere

Dunedain: it will be a great plac e for a safe house

Dunedain: but i dont think many veterans

Dunedain: wwioll want to "transfer"

Dunedain: we should really be concentrating on developing strategies

Dunedain: for how to p[rotect our "investments" in these lands

Dunedain: as for the faction system

Dunedain: i dont think we can count on it as a means to controll the mayhemers

Dunedain: no form of organization will ever appeal to them

Dunedain: just my oopinion

Thrawn: thank you

Thrawn: anybody else?

Pyros: yah

Thrawn: go ahead

Pyros: Just a quick question

Pyros: There isn't some kind of tax or duty to be a part of a faction is there?

Thrawn: I don't think so... just the ability to change prices in the town, no?

Pyros: I can't remember for sure

Pyros: I know [Lum's] system called for it

Pyros: I take it no one knows?

Pyros: ok

Thrawn: I don't remember reading anything about any taxes or duties

Adi Mundi: im sorry sumthin has come up with me as well i must go

Pyros: *nods*

Adi Mundi: may the force be with you

Thrawn: if nobody has anything else to speak of, I will bring this meeting to a close...

Pyros: anyone have anything else to say on anything?

Gotter McVay: um...

Gotter McVay: if the council decides to stay here...

Gotter McVay: shuld we establish a brach

Gotter McVay: in the new lands?

Thrawn: that is a possibility

Pyros: probibly best left for when the system comes out

Pyros: and we know exactly how the factions opperate

Thrawn: anything else?

Thrawn: in that case, thank you all for coming

Thrawn: a log of this meeting will be posted soon

Thrawn: make sure to visit at yewcouncil.brenner.de

Thrawn: thank you all
