Wow.. that.. worked?
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:43:54 PM)
We love you.
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:43:59 PM)
nah we just wanted to bug you while you were planning
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:01 PM)
Scary as that sounds,
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:01 PM)
you aiight ..
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:04 PM)
:D
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:29 PM)
I am offshore, I won't be up a LOT longer... but I'll hang out.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:33 PM)
alright.. also.. people please.. vote on the forum if you haven't. We have had a few good suggestions on things so far.. we just need the vote for the most part
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:47 PM)
no scenage?
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:50 PM)
im just finding out if im going for icey creamey or not....what we voting on? *checks*
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:44:53 PM)
I voted and made suggestions
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:45:20 PM)
Yes. Scenage
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:45:27 PM)
Ayuh. You got my inputage.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:45:37 PM)
Yes Craig.. and its actually a great idea
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:45:54 PM)
the quick bit on it while I get the notes together
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:45:58 PM)
I know nothing about mage or ST'ing.
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:46:17 PM)
I actually suck at ST ing. actually I just have a new job and no desire to do it
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:08 PM)
what's everyone talking about
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:27 PM)
The Venue needs an overhall. Don't get me wrong. I know LOTS have worked for a lot fo things but we wanna make things work. Open up backgrounds that the current venue doesn't allow. Get a structure in place.
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:27 PM)
STing and not being good at it.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:32 PM)
*whaps Craig*
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:42 PM)
That's a fantastic idea.
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:47:53 PM)
I love STing...but I admit I was not the best ST here.
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:01 PM)
and yes, the venue does need an overhaul.
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:14 PM)
*eyes* Define overhaul
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:39 PM)
we are looking at asking PCs to also tame back the Character, Basically.. re-write if you will.. with a given amount of freebies for being on the chat. This is also to open up a few Nodes, and give it so that the city is more.. well.. Game Friendly
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:43 PM)
NPC's, places to gather, nodes, a viable, working concept, not the burnt out thing that Deschain left and everyone else has been working off of.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:54 PM)
thank you tarra
Tarra Shapiro (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:55 PM)
I'm happy to do that if you need me to, Mingus.
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:48:57 PM)
I still say we do nto have to scrap characters who earned their stripes in the process.. high level transfers who dont play fine go for it, but those folks who eanred their stuff in this chat should not be made to suffer .. just my 2 cents
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:49:06 PM)
Well heres the thing
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:49:22 PM)
My problem is.... I've done nothing to *earn* anything in chat.
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:49:30 PM)
it about my techogun, because i really like it
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:49:37 PM)
*is mostly kidding, but LOVES justin*
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:49:40 PM)
We are going to allow for a couple arete 4 slots. But we wanna be far about it. Yes I know a few PC have earned a lot of things and some haven't
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:00 PM)
trust me, I know this. This is why with the new setting we will be coming back with a force unleashed to try and make it work.
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:01 PM)
HA!
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:14 PM)
Dorian remains...cause i haven't spent a point of his xp...
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:16 PM)
since making him
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:34 PM)
All 43 points of it >.>

Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:44 PM)
*shrug* I am waiting to see what TPO Kaydence does.
Emmaline Dupre (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:48 PM)
purples!
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:50:54 PM)
Yes emma.. purples
Emmaline Dupre (Sep 7, 2011 9:51:06 PM)
Emma is also Izzie, but too lazy to change
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:51:12 PM)
But the thing is also that we are trying to be in a way fair.
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:51:22 PM)
like, justins my longest running character.......i really dont want to scrap him.....because Ive worked pretty effin hard to build him into a semi powerful force from a pud
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:51:39 PM)
We know if we came in and went, "This is how it is" that we wouldn't be. So if you see a problem with it.. Tell us a suggestion of how to make it work
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:51:44 PM)
It's kinda...odd making it only a few slots for high Arete...
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:07 PM)
I've... *shrug* Done a lot of coffee shop RP and very little else so I can't justify shit at this point that doesn't come through a scene or two and a lot of blue books.
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:10 PM)
Okay so you want to reformat the entirety of the Mage venue?
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:13 PM)
There are only 2 pcs that have earned arete 4
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:19 PM)
in game.. here
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:31 PM)
Reformat.. or allow a small hiatus break to fix issues
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:31 PM)
Matrix it >.>
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:51 PM)
My vote is this:
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:52:55 PM)
FPM the suggestions to CG and me.. we are trying to make this a venue you will all come back for
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:53:09 PM)
wait were you only talking about transfers? or would everyone get the axe?
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:53:14 PM)
It sounds odd but what we've been playing in can be a large simulation
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:53:52 PM)
Begin preparing the new venue material - a sort of "THis is what happens..." story - then take the venue down for a month while you polish it and get it in place, then open it all right back up in one fell swoop with everything updated and new NPC's in place. But that's only my suggestion.
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:53:55 PM)
its true of the rogue council could show up, with a "Thank you, how did you know about this node we misplaced....you defer to the following mages.....
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:54:30 PM)
ack or the rougue coucil...ect
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:54:41 PM)
was fixing my wierd of
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:55:03 PM)
I have to admit i'm rather fond of Dorian...
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:55:25 PM)
And starting anew makes no sense since Dorian is still a starter character
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:55:51 PM)
Trust me.. I am thinking of dropping my Mage PC all together
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:56:05 PM)
Anyway.. so.. there is some Scene work also
Emmaline Dupre (Sep 7, 2011 9:57:00 PM)
I really don't want to remake Iz. Took her ages to be something - linears advance pretty slowly
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:57:36 PM)
Linears advance slow? Man. You try buying up arete?
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:57:41 PM)
and I do not want to remake lyric , too much time and effort was put into her
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:03 PM)
exactly Craig since mage doesnt earn xp from bb thats all straight playtime there
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:04 PM)
what they said but about justin, would be willing to drop his mana if thats overpowered
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:10 PM)
um..
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:19 PM)
actually.. Mages have been earning Xp from BB
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:27 PM)
Since when?
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:38 PM)
Since I got tools to start doing xp
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:58:47 PM)
Im talkign about before that hun
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:02 PM)
Look.. If people wanna keep the way things are then fine
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:12 PM)
not the game, just their characters
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:14 PM)
but without the structure in or such.. its REALLY hard for CG and me to get plots rolling
Lyric Blake (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:22 PM)
because that doesnt have much to do with the broken metaplot
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:22 PM)
Yep.
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:25 PM)
There are ways to change the venue without a full restart
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:33 PM)
Epic Plotline?
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:40 PM)
that is another apart of the suggestion
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 9:59:49 PM)
*votes for epic plotline*
Emmaline Dupre (Sep 7, 2011 10:00:05 PM)
Epic plot!
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 10:00:21 PM)
*looks at Justin* On the other hand.. I will start going over sheets.. for people who start getting REALLY powerful aka.. as in meeting requirements and talking about retiring the PC to make a new one
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 10:00:26 PM)
Hey, let's go ask the masters with their libraries what we can do about..... oh, yeah, nevermind... HEY! We can goa sk my mentor and his familiar-er...I mean.... no, no. Oh! We can create a familiar.... wait, no we can't, not without quintessence to make the effect permanent so.... yeah. OH! I got.... no. No I don't have an idea....
Emmaline Dupre (Sep 7, 2011 10:01:23 PM)
Just, well... I sort of expected NPcs to filter in after the Ma and Pa stuff, too. New node, why not an influx of mages?
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 10:01:47 PM)
It pains me, but the bottom line is we need at the very least a *soft* reset in terms of putting SOME kind of background and plot and buil tin politic and metaplot in place.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 10:01:54 PM)
Look.. CG and I are going with what we get in input. We know that things are gonna go across the board and make everyone happy.
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:15 PM)
As it is.. I'm abotu to try and get the Crazy Coffee house Scene back in place
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:25 PM)
eww
Craig Killian (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:32 PM)
Crazy Coffee house?
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:40 PM)
well Killer coffee more like it
Dr. Dorian Shepherd (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:44 PM)
Yeah...stupid coffee Dorian is addicted to >>
Justin Moore (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:47 PM)
ill stay in touch, but ibe gotta go get some icey creams with some pals irl, but ill be backm, and im planning on more playing
Mingus (Sep 7, 2011 10:02:56 PM)
