William Smit V: I'm talking about William the Fourth.
woohoo: sorry
William Smit V: Yes!
Anna: *smiles*
William Smit V: William the Third told me, before he left to look for him, he was a student for WYU.
Thrawn: I saw him not too long ago, being a wise guy at one of these very meetings as usual
William Smit V: So he is a wise man as Anna has said!
William Smit V: Very like a Sage I see.
William Smit V: I should like to meet him one day.
Thrawn: no... more like a jester
William Smit V: A jester...as a...Sage?!
Anna: *chuckles*
William Smit V: Ha ha hah!
William Smit V: How foolish!
William Smit V: What a maroon....
William Smit V: I mean, I should like to meet my dad one day.
William Smit V: *Coughs*
William Smit V: Anyway, that's all I had to say.
William Smit V: Just worried about him.
Thrawn: okay, I wish you luck..
Thrawn: moving along... Vargen, how goes the faction fight?
Vargen: we fight well though we're outnumbered
Vargen: I believe we still hold Britain, though I'm not sure how the rest of our campaign
Vargen: against the Shadowlords is going
Thrawn: *nods*
William Smit V: Well I need to go fish...My question has been answered.
Thorin: i heard we have the moonglow sigil as well

Thrawn: what is your overall opinion of the war itself?
William Smit V: Oh me!
Anna: relative in the pitcher
William Smit V: Thorin, just hold unto my grandfather.
William Smit V: Bye!
Thorin: um...
Vargen: I think we're doing well
Thrawn: is it what you expected? the type of warfare and whatnot?
Thrawn: Hello Gwen
Gwendolyn: Sorry I'm late
Vargen: it's a little better than I expected, actually
Vargen: there are rough spots, of course
Vargen: and I don't know how I feel about being on the underdog side
Vargen: (though I do feel pretty good about how well we're doing considdering)
Anna: I herd Remat is Mayor of the SL
Thrawn: perhaps the numbers will even out more as more people join
Vargen: *nods*
Thrawn: anybody have anything else to add on the topic of factions?
Anna: *rasies hand*
Thrawn: yes Anna?
Anna: Wintermoor has joined CoM.
Thrawn: that's a shame
Anna: *nods*
Thrawn: anything else?
Anna: Not on factions.
Gwendolyn: What is the current status in Britain?
Gwendolyn: Or did you already discuss that? :)
Vargen: *mutter something about everyone wanting to be the bad guys or the rebels...*
Thrawn: I believe it is still under control of the True Britannians
Gwendolyn: ah, good
Anna: Seems to change day to day.
Vargen: we maintain control for the most part
Thrawn: okay, moving along then
Thrawn: I only really have one other thing to mention
Thrawn: and it's not really serious business
Thrawn: the veteran rewards program has gone into testing on the test shard
Thrawn: I stopped by to check it out.. and I must say, there are some nice rewards
Vargen: *nods*
Vargen: I've fooled with that some
Anna: *smiles*
Gwendolyn: *notices Thrawn's grey hairs...*
Thrawn: the ethereal mounts are particularly nice
Thrawn: *grins*
Thrawn: so if you're going to be eligible for some of these rewards
Vargen: the colored leather looks good
Anna: *thinks Yew milita would look nice in dyed green leather*
Thrawn: and don't know what to choose.. go fool around with them on the test center
Thrawn: I think I'm definitely getting one of the ethereal horses and a leather dye tub for sur
Thrawn: maybe a furniture dye tub and banner as well..
Vargen: the banners look nice in the pictures
Thrawn: *nods*
William Smit IV: Sorry I'm late!
Gwendolyn: Hi Will
Thorin: Hail
William Smit IV: Some kid put his ship behind my house, and then named it the William Smit.
William Smit IV: Some nerve...
Thrawn: just wanted to mention that, since it was kind of interesting to check them out
Anna: Dont pour anything in that pitcher.
Gwendolyn: hehe
William Smit IV: *Looks down the pitcher*
William Smit IV: Oh my God!
William Smit IV: Thorin is that a high carb drink for you fighters?>
William Smit IV: Let me try it...
William Smit IV: *Scoops it into his backpack*

Gwendolyn: I'm trying to get all the bell colors, and the one I don't have so far is dark purple.
William Smit IV: So does my orc!
Anna: I trade after the meeting *has two coves*
Vargen: *wonders if his bell is dark or light purple*
Thorin: you have an orc?
William Smit IV: Yes, and I bought him fair and square if you're trying to get me in Court.

William Smit IV: Both of them!
Thrawn: sorry, go on Anna
Anna: As you may or may not know...
Anna: Dyluck gave me the wyu stone
Thorin: *stares at Vargen evily*
Vargen: wait until the meeting's over Thorin...
Thorin: hehe, ok
Vargen: or I'll stop with the balls and start with the arrows...
Anna: I searched and asked around who I would find to be Gm of it
Anna: I spoke to those I respected
Anna: and knew the school
Anna: After many meetings..
William Smit IV: It'd be nice if a person with arrows could only shoot another with arrows, like the rule on snowbal
Anna: I choose Duke Varg of OSS
Anna: A fine man
Thorin: hehe
Anna: very noble
William Smit IV: Good ol' Varg.
Anna: and willing to breath life

Vargen: but he hasn't had the time until recently
Vargen: it never started
William Smit IV: I see.
Vargen: though it should soon if Kry can over the holidays
Gwendolyn: I don't see why they think the WYU stone should go to Fel then.
Vargen: [he didn't have the time as a college freshman]
Anna: I sent word to Aleph
Vargen: WYU started there
William Smit IV: WYU stone should have stayed in Fel, and kept what they had.
