(09/05 13:08:48)  Brooketh: The Competitive Myst Online group cordially invites all cavern dwellers to our weekly social Ahyoheek game night, every Saturday  at 21 KI in the Competitive Myst Online Hood. Ahyoheek is a D'ni game very similar to Paper-Rock-Scissors.
(09/05 13:08:56)  Brooketh: We are a friendly club of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(09/05 13:09:06)  Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.
(09/05 13:09:13)  Brooketh: We do hope to see you there!
(09/05 13:09:19)  Brooketh: Are there any questions?
(09/05 13:09:22)  Prad: Ayohiker on The Open Cave shard has a similar event each monday 14 KI in the Ayohiker's Hood on The Open Cave shard.

(09/05 13:11:09) [applause]
(09/05 13:11:12)  Korov'ev: In Deep Island, last month we visited the works of Jamey, including Writers' Niche; explored some Ahra Pahts shells we missed, including the Black Fortress; and enjoyed the summer in a few beach ages, like Llantern.
(09/05 13:11:23)  Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, we visited the Pods, including Jalargura, and reached flag 3125 in Minkata.
(09/05 13:11:36)  Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in the Open Cave, we'll start the Path of the Shell in Er'cana, and later in Ahnonay.
(09/05 13:11:45)  Korov'ev: Note that invites are *not* updated, and new ones have the same name. So if you have one, you may want to delete it, or you'll have to guess which one is correct!
(09/05 13:11:54)  Korov'ev: In Deep Island, we'll visit Ahrkane by Ekimmai, old versions of Cass and Fahets by Tweek, Hayal by Corvus & Race, Ria by Rich.
(09/05 13:12:02)  ShilohOBrien: Alas, I can't come!  I'm hosting as pool party tomorrow.
(09/05 13:12:09)  Korov'ev: Pool party!
(09/05 13:12:16)  Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, in Deep Island starting in the only hood there (use "/hood"); in the Open Cave, starting in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood.
(09/05 13:12:25)  Prad: Cool Party

(09/05 13:13:12)  PodHopper:      Thank you, Korov'ev! 
(09/05 13:13:14) Korov'ev bows
(09/05 13:13:14)  Korov'ev: Back to my seat then!

(09/05 13:13:36)  PodHopper:  ~~~ D'ni Language Class and Story Night ~~~
(09/05 13:13:39) PodHopper beckons you
(09/05 13:13:39)  PodHopper:      Come on up, shokhootahn Rehn
(09/05 13:13:45) [applause]
(09/05 13:14:09)  shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements.  One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.
(09/05 13:14:18)  shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes...
(09/05 13:14:27)  shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday,  starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule.
(09/05 13:14:44)  shokhootahn Rehn: (there already are students scheduled for the Monday night and Friday night classes)
(09/05 13:14:55)  shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule.  Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.
(09/05 13:15:11)  shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(09/05 13:15:23)  shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only.  There are no weekend classes available.
(09/05 13:15:34)  shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(09/05 13:15:48)  shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(09/05 13:16:30)  shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(09/05 13:16:42)  shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors:  Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager.
(09/05 13:16:57)  shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(09/05 13:17:04)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.
(09/05 13:17:11)  shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on...
(09/05 13:17:20)  shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(09/05 13:17:37)  shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will begin the story of the restoration as seen through the eyes of an explorer, albeit a fictional one.  It was written by the explorer Janai, and published on the mystonline forums in 2009.
(09/05 13:17:57)  shokhootahn Rehn: If anyone has contact with Janai on the surface, please let her know that she is inivited to hear her story performed live.  :-)
(09/05 13:18:19)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(09/05 13:18:38)  shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn).  I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording.  His name is "I'm a bot, do not message".  Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet.  ;-)  Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy.  He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(09/05 13:19:05)  shokhootahn Rehn: I doubt I will have the time to upload any more videos until the cycle starts over with the stories of the kings.  :-(
(09/05 13:19:20)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(09/05 13:19:31)  shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(09/05 13:19:50)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night - Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(09/05 13:20:10)  shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays.  :-)
(09/05 13:20:24)  shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(09/05 13:20:33)  shokhootahn Rehn: (last-minute cancelations, etc.)
(09/05 13:20:45)  shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to apprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news.  :-)
(09/05 13:21:03)  shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(09/05 13:21:15)  shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(09/05 13:21:29)  shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat.  If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list.  His KI number is 58324.  KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender.  Though the sender is added to the Recent's folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text.  :-)
(09/05 13:22:06)  shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(09/05 13:22:09)  shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(09/05 13:22:22)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.

(09/05 13:22:28)  PodHopper:      Thank you, shokhootahn Rehn!

(09/05 13:22:44)  PodHopper:  ~~~ Mysterium & Cavern News ~~~
(09/05 13:22:47) PodHopper beckons you
(09/05 13:22:47)  PodHopper:      Come on up, Calum
(09/05 13:22:48) [applause]
(09/05 13:22:56) Calum Traveler waves hello
(09/05 13:22:58) [applause]
(09/05 13:23:01)  Calum Traveler: on Mysterium news
(09/05 13:23:26)  Calum Traveler: if you were having issues linking to the GoMePub, you should be able to get there now without needing to lower your textures slider to half
(09/05 13:23:35)  Calum Traveler: i believe we've resolved the issues,
(09/05 13:23:49)  Calum Traveler: make sure to get in there and grab any shirts youre missing before chogon closes the curtains until next year
(09/05 13:24:01)  Calum Traveler: if you still have any crashing issues with the pub, please let me know.
(09/05 13:24:15)  Calum Traveler: age dev news:
(09/05 13:24:37)  Calum Traveler: im hoping to get a new build of Chiso onto minkata alpha today, should have a temporary linking book to the new age that just entered testing
(09/05 13:24:40)  Calum Traveler: it's another Pod!
(09/05 13:24:44)  Prad: texture compression will be improved for new ages to come as well, as a nice side effect, if I got it right ...
(09/05 13:24:53)  Calum Traveler: Rigilahs, by Ametist!
(09/05 13:25:00)  ShilohOBrien: Woot!
(09/05 13:25:06) [applause]
(09/05 13:25:08)  Calum Traveler: youll probably recognize it from the pod contest
(09/05 13:25:12)  philipgr: Nice
(09/05 13:25:15)  Calum Traveler: (see, i told yall theyd make their way through eventually)
(09/05 13:25:33)  Calum Traveler: note on chiso:
(09/05 13:25:45)  ShilohOBrien: The contest to alpha pipeline.
(09/05 13:25:55)  Calum Traveler: minkata alpha's version, once i push it, will be a bit incomplete in certain regards
(09/05 13:26:03)  Calum Traveler: Rigilahs, assumedly, will take Tiam's place on the Ring,
(09/05 13:26:24)  Calum Traveler: unfortunately, im having issues with the Node Tree for the bookshelf linking books, and sharing the book causes the same issues we were having with explorers emporium's sticky books
(09/05 13:26:37)  Calum Traveler: so things will look a bit out of place in terms of book usage
(09/05 13:26:59)  Calum Traveler: also! you may notice some differences in signage
(09/05 13:27:15)  Calum Traveler: the standing signs will have had their handwritten font replaced with a type written font for legibility reasons
(09/05 13:27:29)  Calum Traveler: and we're also trialing out some small metal plates on the shelves instead of standing signs in a few places,
(09/05 13:27:44) Thumbs up from Prad
(09/05 13:27:48)  Calum Traveler: Korov'ev, Semjay, and Dpogue contributed to the design work.
(09/05 13:27:57)  Maurus: oooooh :)
(09/05 13:28:08)  Prad: Hit my head so often on the standing signs ... :P
(09/05 13:28:08)  Calum Traveler: these trial signs will likely make it to MOULa eventually
(09/05 13:28:11)  Calum Traveler: *however*
(09/05 13:28:21)  Calum Traveler: we're going to do something a little fun once they do
(09/05 13:28:30)  Calum Traveler: regular chiso will have the standing signs as usual, 
(09/05 13:28:45)  Calum Traveler: but Mir-O-Bot's chiso can probably have the little plates active instead
(09/05 13:29:11)  Calum Traveler: this way, if folks wish to, they can compare and contrast the two styles and the AGM after the update, i can ask yall what you all think of which sign style works better
(09/05 13:29:26)  Calum Traveler: mind you, hypotheticals at this stage,
(09/05 13:29:42)  Calum Traveler: but i think itll be a nice way to get some wider community feedback :)
(09/05 13:30:18)  Calum Traveler: before i move on, any questions?
(09/05 13:30:24)  PodHopper:        None in queue
(09/05 13:30:30)  Calum Traveler: any from audience?
(09/05 13:31:09)  Ro"Jethhe: Any idea when Dulcamaria's newest Age will be ready ?
(09/05 13:31:22)  Calum Traveler: no. it's a very large age.
(09/05 13:31:27) Ro"Jethhe nods his head
(09/05 13:31:35)  Calum Traveler: moving on, 
(09/05 13:31:39)  Korov'ev: if you don't like the new signs, you have me to blame ;)
(09/05 13:31:47)  Mystler: What is Mir-O-Bot's chiso?
(09/05 13:31:56)  Calum Traveler: a private instance of Chiso Preniv, 
(09/05 13:32:19)  Calum Traveler: like how Mir-o-bot has a private instance of Naybree, etc.
(09/05 13:32:22)  Mystler: I figured that much, i presume there is some procedure documented somewhere?
(09/05 13:32:34)  Calum Traveler: so bot stuff can be done in those ages without affecting public instances
(09/05 13:32:52)  Calum Traveler: ill leave it to someone more knowledgable about how to get Mir-O-Bot's rules to you :)
(09/05 13:33:02)  Mystler: cool, thanks
(09/05 13:33:02)  Prad: you can send /help to Mir-o-Bot in a PM and he will send you some documentation of his comman ds
(09/05 13:33:10)  Calum Traveler: moving on~!
(09/05 13:33:17)  Korov'ev: just "help", without the slash ;)
(09/05 13:33:25)  *Jodok*: no slash
(09/05 13:33:28)  ShilohOBrien: Gotta duck out.  Have fun, folks.
(09/05 13:33:33)  Calum Traveler: continuing the trend of Pods, im hoping to get Pod12 finished up 
(09/05 13:33:35)  Prad: ah thanks Korov'ev
(09/05 13:33:41)  Calum Traveler: im redoing a lot of the lighting right now thanks to 0.18,
(09/05 13:33:46)  Prad: (and*J
(09/05 13:33:53)  Calum Traveler: and hopefully, along with it, ill get Reischu Apt's lighting redone too, 
(09/05 13:34:06) [applause]
(09/05 13:34:20)  Calum Traveler: im not *expecting* them the next update, not unless a lot of stuff falls into place very quickly
(09/05 13:34:33)  Calum Traveler: (Im still waiting on several things from several people!)
(09/05 13:34:57)  Calum Traveler: but hopefully the update after next? Assuming something big doesnt drop in my lap LOL
(09/05 13:35:07)  ural: Decent??
(09/05 13:35:13)  Calum Traveler: tweek is still working on Descent
(09/05 13:35:16)  Calum Traveler: i can tell you this,
(09/05 13:35:26)  Calum Traveler: there was a minor quake in the lava tubes from the caldera to tiana's cave,
(09/05 13:35:26)  Korov'ev: quiet decent, indeed ;)
(09/05 13:35:39)  Calum Traveler: tweek is working to stabilize the changed area ;)
(09/05 13:36:03) [applause]
(09/05 13:36:11)  Calum Traveler: (That is to say, Tweek had some improvements to the layout he wanted to make, and I gave him my approval)
(09/05 13:36:28) *Jodok* shows enthusiasm
(09/05 13:36:45)  Calum Traveler: once i get Pod12 and ReischuApt out of the way, my next big project is Tackling the Kirel 3.0 rebuild
(09/05 13:36:50)  Calum Traveler: we're in Kirel 2.0 right now,
(09/05 13:36:53)  Calum Traveler: nobody has the build file for it,
(09/05 13:36:57)  Calum Traveler: so i gotta rebuild it again.
(09/05 13:37:07) *Jodok* wants to ask a question...
(09/05 13:37:10)  Calum Traveler: my last attempt got cursed with 'random files deleteditis'
(09/05 13:37:11)  rarified: Don't hide the blue button!
(09/05 13:37:13)  Calum Traveler: yes, Jodok?
(09/05 13:37:26)  Calum Traveler: i wouldnt dare, rar,
(09/05 13:37:30)  *Jodok*: kirel, with game room down where the lake is and heek table?
(09/05 13:37:47)  Calum Traveler: game room, not on my schedule for kirel
(09/05 13:37:56)  *Jodok*: ah
(09/05 13:38:00)  Calum Traveler: id like to get the game rooms in the neighborhoods opened up some day, though
(09/05 13:38:01)  *Jodok*: thx
(09/05 13:38:10)  *Jodok*: yayyyyy
(09/05 13:38:12)  Calum Traveler: but that's a 'after i get kirel working' thing
(09/05 13:38:19)  *Jodok*: me happy
(09/05 13:38:21)  Calum Traveler: a lot of the same lessons learned here can go to the hoods,
(09/05 13:38:21)  *Jodok*: thx
(09/05 13:38:42)  *Jodok*: also lightning?
(09/05 13:38:50)  Calum Traveler: lightning?
(09/05 13:38:50)  *Jodok*: or illumination?
(09/05 13:38:53)  Prad: (and playing tic-tac-toe, 4-in-a-row and table soccer in the game room alongside ayoheek haha ... :D)
(09/05 13:38:58)  *Jodok*: the different lights here
(09/05 13:38:58)  Calum Traveler: oh, the light garden?
(09/05 13:39:12)  Calum Traveler: yeah, im saving the light garden for last this time
(09/05 13:39:14)  *Jodok*: no the color here is different
(09/05 13:39:15)  Calum Traveler: that's where i got cursed
(09/05 13:39:25)  *Jodok*: anyways
(09/05 13:39:28)  Calum Traveler: kirel is the same color it's always been
(09/05 13:39:43)  Calum Traveler: anyways!
(09/05 13:39:57)  *Jodok*: old kirel was not so nice here in the community room
(09/05 13:40:02)  Calum Traveler: any last questions before I move on?
(09/05 13:40:05)  Verna: yes
(09/05 13:40:11)  Calum Traveler: yes, verna?
(09/05 13:40:17) Ro"Jethhe votes to keep those bonus games at The Open Cave.
(09/05 13:40:17)  Verna: is there a list of what will be different between kirel 2 and 3?
(09/05 13:40:23)  Calum Traveler: visually? Nothing.
(09/05 13:40:33)  Calum Traveler: atleast
(09/05 13:40:35)  Calum Traveler: nothing major
(09/05 13:40:45)  Calum Traveler: maybe a tiny copy of a random lamp being put on a table ;)
(09/05 13:40:58)  Calum Traveler: i might update the slides on the imager in the classroom,
(09/05 13:41:01)  Prad: Me agrees to Ro"Jethhe and confesses he was just joking - gives him a TOC penny for getting the reference 
(09/05 13:41:15) Ro"Jethhe thanks you
(09/05 13:41:15)  Ro"Jethhe: Prad
(09/05 13:41:17)  Verna: thanks
(09/05 13:41:28)  Calum Traveler: otherwise, kirel 2.0 and 3.0 should be the *same* visually, just as my Chiso 2.0 was meant to be the same as Chiso 1.918.224
(09/05 13:41:37)  Calum Traveler: (However many revisions it had before i took it over)
(09/05 13:42:20)  Calum Traveler: 3.0 for kirel is just to get us a working build file again,
(09/05 13:42:40)  Verna: got it
(09/05 13:42:42)  Calum Traveler: and to smooth over a few oddities the last person left behind in its last export, like the weird audio levels on one of the kirel podium audios
(09/05 13:43:02)  Calum Traveler: (I already sorted that in Chiso lol)
(09/05 13:43:12)  Maurus: cough legacy eax data that went missing in 2.0 cough
(09/05 13:43:27)  Calum Traveler: moving on to my final topic...
(09/05 13:43:29) Brooketh raises her hand
(09/05 13:43:34)  Calum Traveler: ...ah, yes, Brooketh?
(09/05 13:43:57)  Brooketh: Do you think the Competitive Myst Online hood could get a second Ahyoheek table?
(09/05 13:44:08)  Calum Traveler: if i get the game room working :)
(09/05 13:44:09) Verna votes for that
(09/05 13:44:13)  Calum Traveler: all hoods will get more tables
(09/05 13:44:15)  *Jodok*: wow
(09/05 13:44:22) [applause]
(09/05 13:44:22) Ro"Jethhe is amazed!
(09/05 13:44:25) [applause]
(09/05 13:44:28)  Brooketh: also maybe places to sit down 
(09/05 13:44:38)  Calum Traveler: yes, yes, ill look into adding some chairs down there lol
(09/05 13:44:40)  Brooketh: i.e benches
(09/05 13:44:53)  Calum Traveler: okay, final topic 
(09/05 13:44:54)  Ro"Jethhe: Lazy Boys?
(09/05 13:45:00)  shokhootahn Rehn: lol
(09/05 13:45:02) Maurus laughs
(09/05 13:45:09)  Brooketh: ah be nice
(09/05 13:45:11)  Prad: with some marks on the benches - benchmarks ...
(09/05 13:45:23)  *Jodok*: lol
(09/05 13:45:26)  Prad: :D
(09/05 13:45:27)  Calum Traveler: Right, uh, guys?
(09/05 13:45:27) Ro"Jethhe says DOH!
(09/05 13:45:28)  Calum Traveler: ssshs
(09/05 13:45:31)  Calum Traveler: please
(09/05 13:45:41)  Calum Traveler: final topic change,
(09/05 13:46:10)  Calum Traveler: im hoping that once all the rebuilds are done, we can finally get back to a more consistent pace of semi-more-frequent content releases
(09/05 13:46:26) Thumbs up from rarified
(09/05 13:46:51)  Calum Traveler: if youre an age dev with ideas you want to work on, or if you're just looking to help out however you can, Heck, if youre just a member of the Open Uru Discord Already but aren't an active tester,
(09/05 13:47:02)  Calum Traveler: we will welcome folks in :)
(09/05 13:47:12)  Calum Traveler: we're probably going to be in more dire need of *Testers* however!
(09/05 13:47:37)  Calum Traveler: as the recent issues with GoMePub showed, strange machine build types are *VERY* under represented
(09/05 13:48:03)  Calum Traveler: i only had TWO testers to help me hammer out the crash issue, and while im certain we got it, two points of crashing verification are only TWO points
(09/05 13:48:09)  Calum Traveler: nd dont represent other machine types
(09/05 13:48:38)  Calum Traveler: look, i dont care if youre using something "substandard" by modern metrics, or you're using something that is highly unique and customized,
(09/05 13:48:54)  Calum Traveler: what the latest issue with GoMePub showed me is that I need *varriety* of different machine types.
(09/05 13:48:59)  Prad: I've got some older machines at hand - sadfully mostly prepared for Linux so windows 10 I do with a live disc if at all ...
(09/05 13:49:13)  Calum Traveler: variety of machine, and Operating Systems,
(09/05 13:49:44)  Calum Traveler: so if you're someone with a unique setup for playing uru
(09/05 13:49:55)  Calum Traveler: please, do consider joining us for testing over at Open Uru's Discord.
(09/05 13:50:15)  Calum Traveler: weird is not a problem, the absence of weird IS the problem
(09/05 13:50:17)  uru348: Q: is it possible to have non-spoiler testers for non-spoiler areas? (common, known areas)
(09/05 13:50:20)  *Jodok*: what is searched exactly?
(09/05 13:50:55)  Calum Traveler: uru348 you can absolutely limit yourself to known areas such as Chiso or GoMePub (those are my likely candidates for hitting the problem again unfortunately)
(09/05 13:51:17)  Prad: being a tester is always don't spoil to the public ...
(09/05 13:51:24)  Calum Traveler: but also, as prad said,
(09/05 13:51:25)  rarified: Announcements for updates to the testing shards include details about where the updates apply.
(09/05 13:51:34)  Calum Traveler: yep,
(09/05 13:52:02)  Calum Traveler: rarified, we could maybe set up a 'frequented area' testing subgroup maybe...?
(09/05 13:52:03) Calum Traveler shrugs
(09/05 13:52:10)  Calum Traveler: ill talk with you later about that after AGM
(09/05 13:52:27)  rarified: At worst you'll get advance knowledge of something coming down the pipe.
(09/05 13:52:27)  Calum Traveler: anyways, please, give it some thoughts, folks. 
(09/05 13:52:46)  Calum Traveler: at best, you get to join in the wacky and fun meta-game of uru development testing XD
(09/05 13:53:07)  Calum Traveler: ~~its basically its own sub-genere at this point~~
(09/05 13:53:10)  rarified: It's best two weeks before a release :P
(09/05 13:53:16)  Calum Traveler: hah, yes, lol
(09/05 13:53:35)  Korov'ev: Maybe a fixed weekly gathering could encourage people to visit?
(09/05 13:53:38)  Prad: testing mean s 'breaking things' and then reporting them - it's fun ... :P
(09/05 13:53:44)  Verna: Is there a link to this discord somewhere?
(09/05 13:53:47)  Calum Traveler: something like that could be arrange, kor, maybe,
(09/05 13:54:01)  Calum Traveler: https://discord.gg/xx6umNtW
(09/05 13:54:06)  Calum Traveler: random 7day expiry invite code
(09/05 13:54:44)  Verna: Thanks
(09/05 13:54:45)  Korov'ev: https://discord.gg/tVknpHQ is the permanent one
(09/05 13:54:51)  *Jodok*: i can offer an old macbook pro mid 2014 on 10.13.6 Highsierra and a imac2017 from 2017 on 13.7.2 Ventura if exotic OS'es are needed
(09/05 13:54:52)  Calum Traveler: thanks, kor
(09/05 13:54:56) Thumbs up from uru348
(09/05 13:55:11)  Calum Traveler: exotic or wild builds are definitely something under-represented in testing,
(09/05 13:55:18) Thumbs up from Verna
(09/05 13:55:28)  Calum Traveler: alright, last call for questions
(09/05 13:55:33)  Calum Traveler: going once...
(09/05 13:55:42)  Calum Traveler: going twice..........
(09/05 13:55:44)  *Jodok*: and this would be on minkata shard right?
(09/05 13:55:48)  ural: yess, help get dot's m mac in
(09/05 13:55:48)  Calum Traveler: yes, Minkata Shards,
(09/05 13:56:04)  Calum Traveler: minkata alpha and prime,
(09/05 13:56:29)  Calum Traveler: alpha is where the game content goes to be trialed, prime is where it goes for finalizing before going to staging
(09/05 13:56:47)  Ro"Jethhe: and the Staging Server?
(09/05 13:56:49)  Calum Traveler: if you do wish to avoid spoilers until the last minutes possible, prime would be the best choke point,
(09/05 13:56:52)  *Jodok*: if in the future I have free time I will definetly try 
(09/05 13:56:52)  Calum Traveler: staging server is cyan's, 
(09/05 13:56:54)  Maurus: Rarified has referred to them collectively as "the minkatae," which as an old Latin student I do adore hehehe
(09/05 13:56:57) Ro"Jethhe thanks you
(09/05 13:57:03)  Calum Traveler: and it's only available when chogon has an update to test
(09/05 13:57:13) Thumbs up from Ro"Jethhe
(09/05 13:57:16)  Calum Traveler: part of the cavcon funds go to operating it ;)
(09/05 13:57:22)  rarified: Just FYI the OpenUru Forums and Wiki have been having issues recently.  You'll need them to get links to the test shard clients.  We're working on it.
(09/05 13:57:22)  Korov'ev: K is not a latin letter but greek, so it should be Minkatai ;)
(09/05 13:57:39)  Prad: got that part with the lost EAX stuff, Maurus ...
(09/05 13:57:40)  Calum Traveler: alright, on that closed-circle point, 
(09/05 13:57:50)  Calum Traveler: badabing, badaboom, im done

(08/01 13:12:05)  Brooketh: Shorah!
(08/01 13:12:14)  Brooketh: The Competitive Myst Online group cordially invites all cavern dwellers to our weekly social Ahyoheek game night, every Saturday  at 21 KI in the Competitive Myst Online Hood. Ahyoheek is a D'ni game very similar to Paper-Rock-Scissors.
(08/01 13:12:26)  Brooketh: We are a friendly club of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(08/01 13:12:42)  Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.
(08/01 13:12:50)  Brooketh: We do hope to see you there!
(08/01 13:12:59)  Brooketh: Are there any questions?
(08/01 13:13:01)  Mevvah: The more the merrier!

(08/01 13:14:47)  Korov'ev: In Deep Island, last month we hopped around the chain-letter age of Rell-too... and that was all, as we skipped last session for Mysterium :)
(08/01 13:15:01)  Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, after a Fissure Party and a Door Run, we started the Third Journey visiting Negilahn and Dereno.
(08/01 13:15:32)  Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in Deep Island, lots of ages: we'll visit a few by Jamey (Tsoidahl Sheegahtee, Writers' Niche, Crater Concept, Vogokh Oglahn). Then we'll visit a few Ahra Pahts shell we skipped, along with the Garden Ages of Pakin and Spiro; then the whacky Ages of Hayal and Ria.
(08/01 13:15:58)  Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, next week we'll visit the other two pods (plus a third one ;) Then we'll cross the desert of Minkata, looking for holes in the sand!
(08/01 13:16:14)  *Jodok*: yayyy
(08/01 13:16:17) [applause]
(08/01 13:16:19)  Korov'ev: Note that invites are *not* updated, and new ones have the same name. So if you have one, you may want to delete it, or you'll have to guess which one is correct :)
(08/01 13:16:26)  Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, in Deep Island starting in the only hood there (use "/hood"); in the Open Cave, starting in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood.

(08/01 13:18:18)  PodHopper:       Only if something unforseen comes up, I may decide to move it to 1 or 2 weeks later but I hope that won't be necessary.
(08/01 13:18:24) [applause]
(08/01 13:18:33)  PodHopper:       Currently we have the following events planned:

(08/01 13:19:24)  PodHopper: Preparing started late this year, so it may feel a bit short time
(08/01 13:19:40)  PodHopper:       Keep in mind that a contest, like the wallgame and conerace, needs actual players to be of any use.
(08/01 13:19:50)  PodHopper:       So please sign up for these events in the coming weeks if you want to participate.
(08/01 13:19:58)  Mevvah: No one has spoken up for door run contests?
(08/01 13:20:07)  PodHopper: not yet
(08/01 13:20:21)  PodHopper:       I will start making a schedule this week, so I would like to ask event hosts to confirm their event before the end of the coming week.
(08/01 13:20:30)  PodHopper:       Until then, any other ideas are welcome too :)
(08/01 13:20:43)  PodHopper:       Questions?

(08/01 13:21:24)  PodHopper: np Mevvah :)
(08/01 13:21:44)  PodHopper: We always did doorruns until they were borked by internal clients
(08/01 13:22:20)  PodHopper: No other questions
(08/01 13:22:21)  Mevvah: Oof. I'd love to see Name That Tune again, it was a close contest a few years ago

(08/01 13:28:50)  shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(08/01 13:28:59)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.

(08/01 13:29:11)  shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(08/01 13:29:32)  shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will continue with the fourth story of eight (#97 of 104) of the two human restorations of the cavern.  Tonight is the first story of the second human restoration.

(08/01 13:30:35)  shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn).  I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording.  His name is "I'm a bot, do not message".  Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet.  ;-)  Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy.  He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(08/01 13:31:12)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(08/01 13:31:20)  shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.

(08/01 13:31:57)  shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays.  :-)
(08/01 13:32:06)  shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(08/01 13:32:14)  shokhootahn Rehn: (last-minute cancelations, etc.)
(08/01 13:32:24)  shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news.  :-)
(08/01 13:32:38)  shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(08/01 13:32:44)  shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(08/01 13:32:58)  shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat.  If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list.  His KI number is 58324.  KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender.  Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text.  :-)
(08/01 13:33:15)  shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(08/01 13:42:25)  Harley A. Rose: but, project MUDFISH is,
(08/01 13:42:30)  Harley A. Rose: whatever that is, we don't yet know,
(08/01 13:42:49)  Harley A. Rose: but it's my hope that Cyan will be able to knock it out of the park.
(08/01 13:43:11)  Prad: City Proper is also one of my favorite, Ereshkigal - Eric has a 'personal' project in Unreal Engine 5 going there - just for reference ...
(08/01 13:43:29)  Harley A. Rose: beyond that, there were previews for a couple of Minnows, a Tunneler Machine Escape Room type game, AND a Visual Novel style "Who D'nit"
(08/01 13:43:30)  Mevvah: i honestly can't believe they're not pursuing Anglerfish. It looks EXACTLY what the gamer community wnats. We want nonviolent, the rest of the world wants DARK, it satisfies both
(08/01 13:43:48)  Harley A. Rose: Anglerfish, alas, i believe was put on hold due to the layoffs cyan had to do last year,
(08/01 13:44:02)  Mevvah: Sounded like it
(08/01 13:44:05)  Harley A. Rose: i dont believe they have the staff to work on it right now.
(08/01 13:44:18)  Harley A. Rose: ill be real here,
(08/01 13:44:30)  Harley A. Rose: the State of Cyan presentation is as much a pitch video for investors as it is for US.
(08/01 13:44:45)  Harley A. Rose: show cyan with your words and support what you want to see!!
(08/01 13:45:12)  Mevvah: They need to be careful with investors, they can be predatory, and then kiss "indie" goodbye
(08/01 13:45:33)  Dreamer3: "Adventures of Shroomie"
(08/01 13:45:37)  *Jodok*: why not bake it like firmament?
(08/01 13:45:49)  Harley A. Rose: they *may* do a backing campaign for *something*
(08/01 13:45:56)  *Jodok*: ooh
(08/01 13:46:04)  Harley A. Rose: cyan was vague about whether they would do one for any of the projects, alternating between "TBA" and "TBD"
(08/01 13:46:22)  Korov'ev: in the first few days a number of online gaming websites have reported on Anglerfish, including PCGamer. One can hope.
(08/01 13:46:23)  Mevvah: That'd be nice. But Firmament didn't sell as well as it really shoul've for as good a game as it is
(08/01 13:46:34)  Harley A. Rose: again, show some support to cyan for what you want to see from the StateOf
(08/01 13:46:38)  Harley A. Rose: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLrBSgqf1XM
(08/01 13:46:43)  Harley A. Rose: video link again for emphasis.
(08/01 13:46:52)  Harley A. Rose: leave a comment if you can,
(08/01 13:47:11)  Harley A. Rose: and make some noise on the discords if youre there
(08/01 13:47:14)  Harley A. Rose: Cyan are always watching,
(08/01 13:47:23)  Harley A. Rose: "Obsessively" as Hannah joked the other day,
(08/01 13:47:25)  *Jodok*: ok
(08/01 13:47:44)  Harley A. Rose: they are keeping an eye out on our reactions and what we want to see.
(08/01 13:48:01)  Harley A. Rose: additionally, for those who remember the "Prefall" teaser in the merch advertisements a while back?
(08/01 13:48:04)  Harley A. Rose: Anglerfish is Prefall.
(08/01 13:48:11)  Harley A. Rose: so that's the same project,
(08/01 13:48:54)  Harley A. Rose: on the GoMePub, im aware of crash issues continuing for certain users
(08/01 13:49:09)  Harley A. Rose: ive only just gotten the fixed korman update, 0.18, to build out a patch
(08/01 13:49:18)  Harley A. Rose: im hoping to have a hotfix pushed through sooner than later,
(08/01 13:49:46)  Harley A. Rose: im just waiting on it to work through the minkatae pipeline
(08/01 13:49:56)  rarified: Just pushed to prime
(08/01 13:50:01)  Harley A. Rose: :) ty rarified
(08/01 13:50:03) [applause]
(08/01 13:50:23)  Mevvah: is this New Messengers/? That's where Karaoke is held
(08/01 13:50:28)  Harley A. Rose: yes, New Messengers
(08/01 13:50:47)  Harley A. Rose: until the hotfix goes through, if youre crashing, please lower your texture slider down to half 
(08/01 13:51:00)  Harley A. Rose: its a temporary work around but should do the trick.
(08/01 13:51:02)  Mevvah: Ok hopefully since rarified had confirmed the fix is in prime, it'll go just fine today
(08/01 13:51:16)  Harley A. Rose: i just need confirm from the crash experiencers on prime :)
(08/01 13:51:35)  Harley A. Rose: right then, on that note, any questions?
(08/01 13:51:41)  Mevvah: (confirming - this is prime, yes?)
(08/01 13:51:56)  Harley A. Rose: Alpha > Prime > Staging > MOULa
(08/01 13:52:07)  PodHopper: none in q
(08/01 13:52:09)  Mevvah: Oh, so prime is a pre-pre-moula
(08/01 13:52:22)  Harley A. Rose: staging is the 'make sure that cyans server works with the update' stage.
(08/01 13:52:28)  Harley A. Rose: among other things
(08/01 13:52:38)  Mevvah: Ok makes sense, thanks for the clarification
(08/01 13:52:39)  rarified: Usually only 1-2 weeks
(08/01 13:52:52)  Prad: MOULa has a 3-level staging pipeline
(08/01 13:52:53)  Harley A. Rose: and for a hotfix like this we probably can skip a lengthy staging cycle,
(08/01 13:52:55)  Mevvah: i'll look out for complaints in karaoke later
(08/01 13:53:18)  Harley A. Rose: im not sure any of our crash testers are even on staging anyways
(08/01 13:53:25)  Harley A. Rose: ill have to confer with them,
(08/01 13:53:36)  Prad: today is no karaoke, Mevvah - Donahoo has RL business
(08/01 13:53:42)  Harley A. Rose: questions, going once...?
(08/01 13:53:49)  Mevvah: Ah.... maybe this is why I get net6ed out so often in karaoke (and tbh in RFD)
(08/01 13:54:05)  Harley A. Rose: questions, going twiiiice..........???
(08/01 13:54:10)  Korov'ev: Should've named Alpha, Optimus. "Optimus Prime Staging MOULa".
(08/01 13:54:16)  Mevvah: (but rfd is in the plaza - ae'gura
(08/01 13:54:28)  Harley A. Rose: your net6s are not the same crash as in the pub
(08/01 13:54:29)  Mevvah: Lol Kor that sounds like a complete sentence
(08/01 13:54:36)  Harley A. Rose: is a VRAM maxout crash
(08/01 13:54:38)  Mevvah: Ah ok Harley
(08/01 13:54:39)  Harley A. Rose: not even a crash report,
(08/01 13:55:12)  Harley A. Rose: last chance, any questions?

(08/01 13:56:18)  Harley A. Rose: thanks all
(08/01 13:56:22)  Prad: I'd have asked if korman 0.18 does seamlessly work with projects built with korman 0.17 ... but maybe I#d figure out myself ...

We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(07/11 13:13:24)  Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.

(07/11 13:14:53)  Korov'ev: Shorah bivrov!
(07/11 13:14:53) [applause]
(07/11 13:15:13)  Korov'ev: First, I'd like to do a brief introduction for the new Messengers website: https://guildofmessengers.info !
(07/11 13:15:25)  Korov'ev: The 4th incarnation of the website is hosted by Swifthawk, who has been hard at work at migrating the existing posts, but is also working on modernising the way readers and writers interact with Uru news.
(07/11 13:15:42) [applause]
(07/11 13:15:46)  Korov'ev: For example, to comment on posts you'll be required to provide a name and email, but you won't need to be registered.
(07/11 13:16:00)  Korov'ev: That said, registering should now be easier and quicker than it used to be ;)
(07/11 13:16:21)  Korov'ev: For now we think won't re-open the forum, since the last one saw no activity in years. The comment section under individual posts should be enough. But we're not against another forum!
(07/11 13:16:41)  Korov'ev: The AGM chat log archive has been reworked too. We thought cleansed logs were redundant, so we'll now provide just the raw ones, in both HTML and pure text format.
(07/11 13:16:53)  Korov'ev: The text format archive includes all months up to 2016, plus a few from 2015, 2014 and 2011. If you have the missing ones, let us know!
(07/11 13:17:09)  Korov'ev: Also, at this point in time, I don't think we need a dedicated GoMe Discord server. You can find us in most Uru servers, including Cyan Chat, MOULa Events, OpenUru, Mysterium, and The Open Cave; many of these do have a specific GoMe channel.
(07/11 13:17:30)  Korov'ev: Anything to add, Ezriilc?  :)
(07/11 13:18:16) IwonK pokes Swift
(07/11 13:18:16)  Korov'ev: Above all, I'd like to avoid being once again the only one posting ;) If there are events you want to present in more details, interviews, summaries of gatherings other than the AGM, etc, you're welcome to post!
(07/11 13:18:21)  Ezriilc: We don't have public registration open just now.
(07/11 13:18:33)  IwonK: oh, good, he woke up :)
(07/11 13:18:54)  *Jodok*: lol
(07/11 13:19:01)  Ezriilc: We're hoping it's easy enough to comment, and we're adding contributors and authors ad hoc.
(07/11 13:19:18)  Korov'ev: Oops, let's fire my keynote assistant
(07/11 13:19:31)  Ezriilc: But if ever someone wants something or whatever, please let us know!  :-)
(07/11 13:19:58)  Korov'ev: Any questions so far?
(07/11 13:20:03)  Christian Walther: Not a question but a feature request: I would appreciate if the RSS feed could carry the full articles, like before, and not just an excerpt.
(07/11 13:20:26)  Ezriilc: I will add that to the todo list.  Thanks!
(07/11 13:20:32)  PodHopper:     No other questions in the queue.
(07/11 13:20:32)  Christian Walther: Thanks!
(07/11 13:20:45)  Korov'ev: Now, after a quick change of hats, let me bring you an update on the Fan Age Expeditions, on the Deep Island and Open Cave shards!
(07/11 13:20:56)  Korov'ev: In Deep Island, last month we visited the last Geologica ages; then we explored Botan & Moysenland, by Ametist; last time, we investigated the pyramid of Oolbahnneea, by Wodan.
(07/11 13:21:08)  Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, after solving Gahreesen and Kadish Tolesa, we had a Fissure party and a door run, which we managed to complete with less participants than cloths.
(07/11 13:21:29)  Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in Deep Island, we'll hop around the chain-letter age of Rell-too; then, we'll visit a few ages by Jamey: Tsoidahl Sheegahtee, Writers' Niche, Crater Concept, Vogokh Oglahn.
(07/11 13:21:43)  Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, next week we'll visit the four main pod ages, part of the Third Journey. Jalargura will have to wait :)
(07/11 13:22:00)  Korov'ev: Note that invites are *not* updated, and new ones have the same name. So if you have one, you may want to delete it, or you'll have to guess which one is correct.
(07/11 13:22:09)  Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, in Deep Island starting in the only hood there (use "/hood"); in the Open Cave, starting in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood.
(07/11 13:22:19)  Korov'ev: I'll most likely skip the July 26 session, since the Cyan State of the Union event will be at the same time at Mysterium ;)
(07/11 13:22:29)  Korov'ev: There's also an (uncommented) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort
(07/11 13:22:38)  Korov'ev: More info and guidelines can be found at https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=111&t=7140
(07/11 13:22:47)  Korov'ev: And that's all I got! Any questions?
(07/11 13:22:57)  PodHopper:     No questions in the queue.
(07/11 13:23:07) Korov'ev bows
(07/11 13:23:07)  Korov'ev: Back to my seat then!
(07/11 13:23:09) [applause]
(07/11 13:23:09)  PodHopper:      Thank you, Korov'ev!
(07/11 13:23:13) [applause]
(07/11 13:23:35)  PodHopper: ~~~ Upcoming Events ~~~
(07/11 13:23:37) [applause]
(07/11 13:23:44)  PodHopper:     Celtic Night:
(07/11 13:23:59)  PodHopper:     Celtic Night will be held on friday July 31st, in the Guild of Healers Hood's Eder Delin from 12:00 ki - 14:00 ki.
(07/11 13:24:07)  PodHopper:     And because the lead singer of Clannad died April this year (Maire Brennan), you can expect more than usual Clannad songs this time.
(07/11 13:24:36)  PodHopper:     Summerfest:
(07/11 13:24:39)  PodHopper:     A date for Summerfest has not been set yet.
(07/11 13:24:47)  PodHopper:     But for practical reasons I decided to move it to the last week of August or maybe even to September.
(07/11 13:24:57)  PodHopper:     It will depend on how the preparations are going and I've only just started preparing.
(07/11 13:25:07)  Prad: Phew. having at least one Clannad on my ToDo for some St. Patricks Day uru karaoke
(07/11 13:25:08)  PodHopper:     It would be nice if we could have a Wall Game this year, but I'm still looking for someone to organize it.
(07/11 13:25:24)  PodHopper:     Dah'mpa has done it in the past but I have not seen him online very often lately.
(07/11 13:25:36)  PodHopper:     So if someone else is willing to organize it then feel free to step forward.
(07/11 13:25:50)  PodHopper:     Any other ideas are welcome too :)
(07/11 13:26:00)  PodHopper:     Questions?
(07/11 13:26:18)  uru348: Definitely need Wall Game to test out the new audio :)
(07/11 13:26:32)  Calum Traveler: yall keep mentioning things im gonna mention :V
(07/11 13:26:37)  Prad: lol
(07/11 13:26:47)  uru348: :V
(07/11 13:26:58)  PodHopper: We'll see :)
(07/11 13:27:05)  IwonK: :A
(07/11 13:27:13)  PodHopper:  ~~~ D'ni Language Class and Story Night ~~~
(07/11 13:27:17) PodHopper beckons you
(07/11 13:27:17)  PodHopper:      Come on up, shokhootahn Rehn
(07/11 13:27:24) [applause]
(07/11 13:27:41)  shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements.  One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.
(07/11 13:27:49)  shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes...
(07/11 13:27:59)  shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday,  starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule.
(07/11 13:28:16)  shokhootahn Rehn: (there already are students scheduled for the Monday night and Friday night classes)
(07/11 13:28:27)  shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule.  Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.
(07/11 13:28:49)  shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(07/11 13:29:02)  shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only.  There are no weekend classes available.
(07/11 13:29:05)  Ezriilc: Discord ++
(07/11 13:29:22)  shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(07/11 13:29:42)  shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(07/11 13:29:55)  shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news...
(07/11 13:30:05)  shokhootahn Rehn: Another student has started taking the classes!
(07/11 13:30:29)  shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(07/11 13:30:45)  shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors:  Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager...
(07/11 13:31:03)  shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(07/11 13:31:10)  PodHopper:     No questions in the queue.
(07/11 13:31:15)  shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on...
(07/11 13:31:23)  shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(07/11 13:31:39)  shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will start the first story of seven (#94 of 104) of the first two human restorations of the cavern.
(07/11 13:31:59)  shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(07/11 13:32:14)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(07/11 13:32:32)  shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn).  I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording.  His name is "I'm a bot, do not message".  Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet.  ;-)  Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy.  He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(07/11 13:33:35)  shokhootahn Rehn: Unfortunately, the channel is current only through April 10, 2021.
(07/11 13:33:49)  shokhootahn Rehn: I doubt I will have the time to upload any more videos untl the cycle starts over with the stories of the kings.  :-(
(07/11 13:34:12)  shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I am also providing caption translations into several languages.
(07/11 13:34:30)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(07/11 13:34:41)  shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(07/11 13:35:03)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night - Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(07/11 13:35:29)  shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays.  :-)
(07/11 13:35:38)  shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(07/11 13:35:47)  shokhootahn Rehn: (last-minute cancelations, etc.)
(07/11 13:35:56)  shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news.  :-)
(07/11 13:36:17)  shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(07/11 13:36:35)  shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(07/11 13:36:41)  ScottMiller: Anyone here a member of DRC(67)?  I use to be . I need an invite to get back into the hood.
(07/11 13:36:54)  shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat.  If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list.  His KI number is 58324.  KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender.  Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text.  :-)
(07/11 13:37:33)  shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(07/11 13:37:40)  shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(07/11 13:37:48)  PodHopper:     No questions in the queue.
(07/11 13:37:49) [applause]

(07/11 13:38:24) [applause]
(07/11 13:38:45)  Calum Traveler: first a Mysterium Update
(07/11 13:38:47) [applause]
(07/11 13:38:56)  Calum Traveler: there was initially an error with registration deadline
(07/11 13:39:08)  Calum Traveler: it originally said July 1st, but it is, infact, July 20th
(07/11 13:39:34)  Calum Traveler: additionally, there is an air quality alert for those attending:
(07/11 13:40:05)  Calum Traveler: its wildfire season, and so depending on which way the wind blows...
(07/11 13:40:14)  Calum Traveler: the air might be fantastic, or it might be smoky,
(07/11 13:40:32)  Calum Traveler: as such, if you have sensitive lungs, masks will be provided at the registration desk free of charge,
(07/11 13:40:37)  Calum Traveler: just ask your commitee member
(07/11 13:40:58)  Calum Traveler: events/special guests
(07/11 13:41:12)  Calum Traveler: as previously mentioned Eric and Hannah will be hosting a State of Cyan panel,
(07/11 13:41:37)  Calum Traveler: and the folks from the Youtube Channel "Giant Bomb" will be hosting a panel "The Trial of Daddy Atrus"
(07/11 13:42:04)  Calum Traveler: finally,
(07/11 13:42:05)  Calum Traveler: https://mysterium.net/2026/07/check-in-logistics/
(07/11 13:42:14)  Calum Traveler: for those attending in person, there is a logistics page for checkin!
(07/11 13:42:50)  Calum Traveler: now then
(07/11 13:42:58)  Calum Traveler: for a hybrid announcement
(07/11 13:43:06)  Calum Traveler: the East Wing of the Guild of Messengers Pub is NOW OPEN
(07/11 13:43:14) Calum Traveler points to Mysterium 2026 shirt
(07/11 13:43:16) [applause]
(07/11 13:43:27)  Calum Traveler: get your shirts for this year in the new Mysterium Con Room!
(07/11 13:43:32) [applause]
(07/11 13:43:52)  Calum Traveler: now then, for full on Cavern News...
(07/11 13:44:03)  Calum Traveler: FINALLY, several things have made it through from testing,
(07/11 13:44:17)  Calum Traveler: although not without some last second hiccups, of course, because that's just life :)
(07/11 13:44:31) [applause]
(07/11 13:44:33)  Calum Traveler: if you're having troubles linking to the New Messenger's Pub, such as crashing on link, or shortly after arrival,
(07/11 13:44:42)  Calum Traveler: you may have a low VRAM situation on your machine,
(07/11 13:45:04)  Calum Traveler: i'm working with Adam {Hoikas} to pin down extraneous textures and oversized textures that i inherited from the original build file
(07/11 13:45:17)  Calum Traveler: in the mean time, there is a workaround
(07/11 13:45:32)  Calum Traveler: before linking to the messengers pub, simply lower the texture quality slider in your graphics settings,
(07/11 13:45:46)  Calum Traveler: this should help keep things low memory enough for machines with low VRAM,
(07/11 13:46:20)  Calum Traveler: i apologize greatly for not catching the duplicated textures or the oversized ones before it hit live,
(07/11 13:46:23) Calum Traveler bows in apology
(07/11 13:46:39)  Calum Traveler: it's been a hectic... *everything*??
(07/11 13:46:46)  Calum Traveler: that aside,
(07/11 13:47:08)  Calum Traveler: im pleased to announce the addition of many of the library tomes ive previously alluded to in Chiso Preniv,
(07/11 13:47:19) [applause]
(07/11 13:47:25)  Calum Traveler: new section signs also stand in place,
(07/11 13:47:34)  Calum Traveler: and, additionally, the new rug and new desk in the basement are in place.
(07/11 13:47:40)  Calum Traveler: and YES, I did secure the rug!
(07/11 13:47:54) Korov'ev coughs
(07/11 13:48:13) shokhootahn Rehn starts to laugh
(07/11 13:48:23)  Calum Traveler: finally, for Chiso, youll find some linking book changes
(07/11 13:48:35)  Calum Traveler: Vothol Gallery has moved to the Bookshelf, following Serene and Trebivdil,
(07/11 13:48:48)  Calum Traveler: in its place is the newly released JALARGURA (POD56)
(07/11 13:48:59) [applause]
(07/11 13:49:16)  Calum Traveler: Semjay did not opt for running a release ceremony,
(07/11 13:49:20)  Calum Traveler: so, we just put it out there,
(07/11 13:49:21) [applause]
(07/11 13:49:40)  Calum Traveler: in existing area news...
(07/11 13:49:45)  Prad: (the VRAM situation may be interesting for wine users on Linux and Mac too - due to wine's GPU detection algorythm the emulator often doesn't use the hosts full VRAM)
(07/11 13:49:56)  Calum Traveler: Yes, the Instances finally caught up, and youll be seeing that Descent's eder tomahn is now blocked off,
(07/11 13:50:10)  Calum Traveler: you may also notice that marker coordinates dont seem to line up properly either,
(07/11 13:50:36)  Calum Traveler: per whatever mumbojumbo yeeshamagic instancing has in play, it seems that the version folks were seeing in their Hood Descents before was...
(07/11 13:50:47)  Calum Traveler: *way up in the air* compared to where the tomahn is in reality,
(07/11 13:50:56)  Calum Traveler: or, atleast, what counts for it in our prime instance,
(07/11 13:51:11)  Calum Traveler: geology is weird and i dont pretend to understand any of it.
(07/11 13:51:14)  Prad: maybe broken maintainer markers - happens
(07/11 13:51:24)  Calum Traveler: work crews are still hard at work at repairing the elevator shafts,
(07/11 13:51:39) [applause]
(07/11 13:51:41)  Calum Traveler: more on Descent at our presentation at Mysterium this year :)
(07/11 13:51:47)  Calum Traveler: finally,
(07/11 13:52:00)  Calum Traveler: the Gahreesen Wall's English Voice Over Announcer audios have been replaced,
(07/11 13:52:23)  Calum Traveler: it's me doing these lines, and i know my voice isn't the *greatest* so for the time being, treat these as a 'verbal tone test' rather than a 'announcer tone test'
(07/11 13:52:56)  Calum Traveler: we're primarily looking to confirm that for those who found the previous announcer's dialogue "overly snarky" or "too harsh," we've toned it down and have given a more encouraging voice to the announcer
(07/11 13:53:38)  Calum Traveler: if folks prefer a deeper voice for the announcer, we have a couple volunteers, such as Prad and r'tay, who have offered the use of their voices for a future announcer voice over
(07/11 13:53:48)  Prad: (there's only few falloff lines which have been re-edited in text)
(07/11 13:53:58) Thumbs up from Prad
(07/11 13:54:05) [applause]
(07/11 13:54:14)  Calum Traveler: if you havent played the wall in a while, please give it a run through, either solo or with friends,
(07/11 13:54:15)  Korov'ev: let's have someone with movie trailer-deep voice
(07/11 13:54:28)  IwonK: I know someone like that :D
(07/11 13:54:34)  Calum Traveler: and let me know later, either in cavern or on discord, what your thoughts are on the new lines
(07/11 13:54:36)  Korov'ev: :)
(07/11 13:54:47)  Prad: heh it's not "wandrin' star" lol
(07/11 13:54:55)  Calum Traveler: im more often online with my "Harley" named KI,
(07/11 13:55:18)  Calum Traveler: so, if you have any comments or feedback about the Wall voice over, you're more likely to catch me there.
(07/11 13:55:46)  Calum Traveler: if there's any adjustments to the dialogue lines themselves, we'll make them before a new voice actor is chosen to do the final announcer,
(07/11 13:56:00)  Calum Traveler: hopefully this will be a one and done rewrite though
(07/11 13:56:10)  Calum Traveler: Byoom~!
(07/11 13:56:18) Calum Traveler chuckles
(07/11 13:56:29)  Calum Traveler: ah, anyways,

(06/06 13:11:55) shokhootahn Ana waves hello
(06/06 13:12:11)  Augur: With that hiatus, we decided to do something a little different for this next one--we're reading three novellas!
(06/06 13:12:28)  Augur: While we'll discuss them all, folks are welcome to just read what grabs their interest. Each is between 60 and 160 pages, so a lot more approachable if you're dipping your toes back into reading!
(06/06 13:13:01)  Augur: The three novellas are:
(06/06 13:13:14)  Dreamer3: drum roll
(06/06 13:13:15)  Augur: "The Emperor's Soul" by Brandon Sanderson, a standalone novella set in the same world as his debut novel "Elantris". (Thank you Cid, for the recommendation!)
(06/06 13:13:37)  Augur: "Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang, a science fiction story about aliens, language, time, family, and the inspiration for the movie 'Arrival'.
(06/06 13:14:00)  Augur: "The Lies of the Ajungo" by Moses Ose Utomi, an allegorical tale inspired by African folklore about a young boy's quest to save his mother, even if it costs him his life.
(06/06 13:14:28)  Augur: As always, everyone is welcome to join regardless of if you come regularly and the list will be posted in the Discord channel(s).
(06/06 13:14:39)  Augur: If you need any help finding the novellas or have recommendations for future books, please reach out to me!
(06/06 13:14:40)  Ereshkigal: The Emperor's Soul sounds interesting! I've heard about that one
(06/06 13:14:57)  Dreamer3: Story of Your LIfe is excellent.

(06/06 13:16:30) shokhootahn Ana waves hello
(06/06 13:16:31)  Brooketh: The Competitive Myst Online group cordially invites all cavern dwellers to our weekly social Ahyoheek game night, every Saturday  at 21 KI in the Competitive Myst Online Hood. Ahyoheek is a D'ni game very similar to Paper-Rock-Scissors.
(06/06 13:16:43)  Brooketh: We are a friendly club of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(06/06 13:16:56)  Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.
(06/06 13:17:07)  Brooketh: We do hope to see you there!
(06/06 13:17:15)  Brooketh: Any questions?
(06/06 13:17:24)  Mevvah: spectators are welcome
(06/06 13:17:24)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.

(06/06 13:18:18) Korov'ev waves hello
(06/06 13:18:18)  Korov'ev: Shorah everyone!
(06/06 13:18:24) shokhootahn Ana waves hello
(06/06 13:18:29)  Korov'ev: This month I'll skip talking about the Age Expeditions, because - once again - we have to address the loss of the Guild of Messengers website.
(06/06 13:18:41)  *Jodok*: oooohhhhh
(06/06 13:18:44)  Korov'ev: I'd give it some more time, since last year it was ultimately fixed, but I'm starting to worry this time it's permanent.
(06/06 13:18:49)  shokhootahn Ana: Ooooh nooooooo!
(06/06 13:19:04)  Korov'ev: guildofmessengers.net or .info should be available, and Swifthawk offered server space, so there are some options on the table.
(06/06 13:19:13)  Korov'ev: First however, I'd like to address a few practical issues:
(06/06 13:19:25)  Korov'ev: 1. Calendar - the actual calendar is based on Google, so the public link is still valid. A while ago I made a short URL version:
(06/06 13:19:38)  Korov'ev: https://bit.ly/GoMe_cal - there are also a few localised versions, just append "_ce", "_uk", "_ru" or "_jp"
(06/06 13:20:27)  Korov'ev: The actual link is soooo long, but I can pass it on if you don't like bit.ly ;)
(06/06 13:20:35)  Korov'ev: There's also the problem that I'm unable to extend editing access to other people, at some point it may be better to move to a new calendar.
(06/06 13:20:44)  Korov'ev: I don't plan to abandon it anytime soon, though, so don't worry about that :)
(06/06 13:20:59) Claidi Song cheers
(06/06 13:21:00) IwonK 's worry mode :off
(06/06 13:21:06)  Korov'ev: 2. Chatlogs - I save all the raw and cleansed chatlogs since 2016 (and a few from before that) in a public Dropbox folder: https://bit.ly/AGM_logs
(06/06 13:21:06)  PodHopper: :)
(06/06 13:21:16)  uru348: Use is.gd, Korov'ev
(06/06 13:21:31)  Korov'ev: An alternative could be saving them in a wiki, or e.g. in the Beneath forums, along with the Town Hall ones.
(06/06 13:21:48)  Korov'ev: 3. Tutorials - there were a few tutorials about troubleshooting client errors, and installing MOUL & shards on MacOS and Linux;
(06/06 13:21:56)  Korov'ev: I've already copied them to the Writers wiki: https://guildofwriters.org/wiki/Tutorials#Uru
(06/06 13:22:07)  Korov'ev: If you're on MacOS or Linux please give it a look, I'm a bit behind the latest developments so they're likely a bit outdated.
(06/06 13:22:23)  Korov'ev: 4. Rel.to (the Myst-specific URL shortening website) - admin login depended on the GoMe website, and I think it already had issues with the latest version.
(06/06 13:22:45)  Korov'ev: So editing is locked afaik. If anything, the website is still accessible. Sadly many links are dead by now.
(06/06 13:22:58)  Korov'ev: I sound like a broken record, but perhaps copying the still working ones on a limited access wiki page could be worth it?
(06/06 13:23:20)  *Jodok*: absolutely
(06/06 13:23:27)  Korov'ev: 5. AGM summaries, new Age announcements, i.e. the meat of the website - these are the most uncertain at the moment.
(06/06 13:23:40)  Korov'ev: Last time we had this problem, I posted the summary in the r/Myst subreddit, where at least it's accessible and easy to find.
(06/06 13:23:54)  Korov'ev: As an alternative, I could post them e.g. in the Beneath forums.
(06/06 13:24:00)  Korov'ev: By the way, apparently the Archivists forums are closed.
(06/06 13:24:14)  Korov'ev: Admittedly, in the last few years activity was down to little more than AGM summaries - in part because for a long time I didn't realise it wasn't possible to register new accounts >.>
(06/06 13:24:25)  Korov'ev: However, recently there were some ideas to get more frequent posts, so I'm not ready to give up on the website yet.
(06/06 13:24:45)  Korov'ev: So that's all I got for now. Questions?
(06/06 13:24:55)  Calum Traveler: not a q, but some insight
(06/06 13:24:56)  PodHopper: I have one
(06/06 13:25:01)  PodHopper: rarified: are the domains changable or are they locked away?
(06/06 13:25:05)  Korov'ev: Or insights :)
(06/06 13:25:11)  Prad: That sounds like a lots of re-organization ...
(06/06 13:25:35)  Prad: ... but what ever happened in the end, have to deal with it, i assume ...
(06/06 13:25:47)  Korov'ev: I don't know about that
(06/06 13:26:08)  rarified: If you can get the domains, I can host but  too busy to administer.
(06/06 13:26:14)  Korov'ev: Access to Wordress is unavailable, and I don't have access to the server backend
(06/06 13:26:52)  Calum Traveler: thats unfortunate,
(06/06 13:27:19)  Korov'ev: yeah, not much I can do from my side :(
(06/06 13:27:20)  Calum Traveler: given it sounds like there's an administration lockout on the old calendar, making things over from fresh, while annoying, might be for the best.
(06/06 13:27:41)  Calum Traveler: if you have site backups from the old version, it might not be a total loss,
(06/06 13:27:44)  Ereshkigal: I'd love to help preserve that old website. So much online culture is lost. I've never done hosting or web design or anything, though
(06/06 13:27:50)  rarified: Well the domain registrations have to expire sometime.
(06/06 13:27:54)  Korov'ev: I have access to the calendar, but I can't extend it to others if needed
(06/06 13:28:03)  Mevvah: my only question is why is all this happening? but that sounds stupid
(06/06 13:28:16)  Calum Traveler: because the old server admin/site owner is gone, i suspect.
(06/06 13:28:27)  Korov'ev: yeah, likely that
(06/06 13:28:33)  Mevvah: oh wow. even through WordPress?
(06/06 13:28:47)  Calum Traveler: if the site was being paid for by him, on wordpress' end,
(06/06 13:28:56)  Calum Traveler: it doesnt matter who else was using it,
(06/06 13:28:56)  Mevvah: ah
(06/06 13:29:36)  Korov'ev: indeed, it's not just a configuration issue
(06/06 13:30:09)  Korov'ev: Well, I guess for now, it's time to go back to my seat :)
(06/06 13:30:18)  Calum Traveler: kor, one last thing?
(06/06 13:30:22) PodHopper claps his hands
(06/06 13:30:22)  PodHopper:      Thank you, Korov'ev! 
(06/06 13:30:22)  Korov'ev: yes?
(06/06 13:30:23)  Calum Traveler: if the site does restore itself somehow,
(06/06 13:30:28) Dreamer3 claps his hands
(06/06 13:30:34)  Calum Traveler: *definitely* see about migrating everything you can to a new account

(06/06 13:31:24)  PodHopper: ~~~ Upcoming Events ~~~ 
(06/06 13:31:35)  Claidi Song: Thank you, Kor!
(06/06 13:31:43)  PodHopper: For the coming months I have two events planned: Celtic Night and Summerfestival.
(06/06 13:31:52)  PodHopper: For both events I haven't had time to even begin preparations due to that pesky RL...
(06/06 13:32:01)  PodHopper: Still, I want both events to happen anyway and for Summerfestival I still have 2 months to prepare.
(06/06 13:32:09)  PodHopper: So, coming month will have to be a creative one for me.
(06/06 13:32:22)  PodHopper: Celtic Night could probably happen late june or early july, I will pick a date when I have started preparing for that.
(06/06 13:32:37)  PodHopper: For Summerfest I will have to come up with a theme yet, 
(06/06 13:32:46)  PodHopper: Although I'm not completely empty in regard to ideas, I haven't worked out any idea yet.
(06/06 13:32:57)  PodHopper: One of my thoughts is about the theme "You are You", which would bring in the social aspect of Moula, for one.
(06/06 13:33:07)  PodHopper: And in all likelihood Summerfest will have two or three central themes as it had previous year.
(06/06 13:33:23)  PodHopper: As ideas are forming in the coming weeks, people who have ideas of their own are welcome to contact me.
(06/06 13:33:42)  PodHopper: Questions?

(06/06 13:41:34)  shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors:  Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager.
(06/06 13:41:35)  Mevvah: thank you
(06/06 13:42:05)  shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(06/06 13:42:13)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.
(06/06 13:42:15)  IwonK: what was the meaning of life again?
(06/06 13:42:19)  IwonK: 67?
(06/06 13:42:23)  shokhootahn Rehn: 42
(06/06 13:42:24)  *Jodok*: 42
(06/06 13:42:24)  rarified: 24
(06/06 13:42:25)  IwonK: oh :D 
(06/06 13:42:33)  Mevvah: my kids would think so , Iwonk
(06/06 13:42:33)  caver1: 42
(06/06 13:42:33) *Jodok* starts to laugh
(06/06 13:42:37)  shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on...
(06/06 13:42:41)  Prad: 55
(06/06 13:42:44)  shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(06/06 13:43:57)  shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the fourth story of five (#90 of 104) from the game, Myst IV: Revelation.
(06/06 13:44:14)  shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(06/06 13:44:27)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(06/06 13:44:48)  shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn).  I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording.  His name is "I'm a bot, do not message".  Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet.  ;-)  Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy.  He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(06/06 13:44:53)  Slingbelly: wow!
(06/06 13:45:28)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(06/06 13:45:38)  shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(06/06 13:45:53)  shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night - Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon.  We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(06/06 13:46:15)  shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays.  :-)
(06/06 13:46:27)  shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(06/06 13:46:40)  shokhootahn Rehn: (last-minute cancelations, etc.)
(06/06 13:46:55)  shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news.  :-)
(06/06 13:47:09)  shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(06/06 13:47:15)  shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(06/06 13:47:26)  shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat.  If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list.  His KI number is 58324.  KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender.  Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text.  :-)
(06/06 13:47:47)  shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(06/06 13:47:52)  shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(06/06 13:48:01)  PodHopper:       No questions in the queue.

(06/06 13:48:33)  Prad: for the Cavern choir there was an idea floating to record a 4th song and make it a sumnmer concert instead of a spring concert - but I'd want to wait 'til Babbeltje returns from her voyage ... I've had some delays in mixing anyway due to RL issues ...

(06/06 13:51:26)  Calum Traveler: Murry will be moderating, while Tweek, Ametist, and I will be remoting in to talk about our work on Descent
(06/06 13:51:40)  Calum Traveler: more on that *then* i suspect. :)
(06/06 13:51:42) Thumbs up from Prad
(06/06 13:51:44)  Calum Traveler: in the mean time,
(06/06 13:51:56)  Calum Traveler: SEVERAL things have been pushed finally from Alpha testing to Prime,
(06/06 13:52:17)  Calum Traveler: im hoping to squeeze one more little thing in there, but depending on chogon's schedule 
(06/06 13:52:22)  Calum Traveler: it may have to be foregone,
(06/06 13:52:39)  Calum Traveler: on the docket this time around ARE:
(06/06 13:52:54) ShilohOBrien sits up 
(06/06 13:52:57)  Calum Traveler: A new desk and some decoration updates to Chiso Preniv.
(06/06 13:53:19)  Calum Traveler: my "V2" Release of Guild of Messenger's Pub, or what I've come to call the "Tavern" update
(06/06 13:53:45)  Calum Traveler: this, like my Chiso Preniv rebuild, is a recreation based on imports, and old blend files
(06/06 13:54:16)  Calum Traveler: it's a little bit of a frankenstien effort, but I believe ive managed to sand down some of the odder collision issues :)
(06/06 13:54:41)  Calum Traveler: hopefully, those efforts will be rewarded in performance values for folks who have had issues being in the pub for long periods of time.
(06/06 13:54:57)  Calum Traveler: i wont bore you with the details there.
(06/06 13:55:25)  Calum Traveler: what i will tell you is that the Mysterium Wing will be open for this year's Mysterium, and it contains some goodies!
(06/06 13:55:35)  IwonK: :O
(06/06 13:55:42)  Calum Traveler: this year's T Shirt, as well as the relocation of the previous year's shirt tables,
(06/06 13:55:43)  *Jodok*: ooohh
(06/06 13:55:57)  Mevvah: dooooOOOOOooohhh...
(06/06 13:56:16)  Calum Traveler: there's also some interesting artworks the Committee provided me (Thanks Kelly!) that you might find very puzzling and interesting
(06/06 13:56:33)  Calum Traveler: ill leave the rest up to you ;)
(06/06 13:56:54) Slingbelly cheers
(06/06 13:56:56)  ural: Including live mysterium ??
(06/06 13:56:57)  Calum Traveler: next up: A small update to Naybree, just a little Quality of Life update that hopefully should help in country evenings with keeping the marbles in place.
(06/06 13:56:58)  rarified: Open *when* Mysterium decorations go live!
(06/06 13:57:00)  Mevvah: niiiiice
(06/06 13:57:06)  IwonK: puzzling, you say? :>
(06/06 13:57:14)  Calum Traveler: or, atleast,
(06/06 13:57:17)  Calum Traveler: not going into the water
(06/06 13:57:29) rarified never found his marbles
(06/06 13:57:38)  Calum Traveler: i put in some magic nets to keep the glowing things from sinking beneath the waves in magic bot's naybree
(06/06 13:57:48) IwonK checks if Rar's marbles are still in her stash
(06/06 13:57:50)  Calum Traveler: you shouldnt notice any other changes otherwise,
(06/06 13:58:21)  Calum Traveler: next: The First Trial Version of the Gahreesen Wall Audio Retakes will finally be going up
(06/06 13:58:26)  Prad: There will be lots of networks now when the new naybree goes online :P
(06/06 13:58:44)  Calum Traveler: they were voiced by me as a trial run of the 'hopefully softer' take on the wall's announcer,
(06/06 13:58:57)  Calum Traveler: many folks early on, including the original VA, realized the original takes were a slight bit... caustic.
(06/06 13:59:10)  Mevvah: aww, but the wall's announcer blasting was part of the "training" i thought... to toughen up Maintainers
(06/06 13:59:12)  Calum Traveler: but they werent rerecorded by the original VA, and since hes no longer around I had to do it myself.
(06/06 13:59:15)  Mevvah: like a drill sergeant
(06/06 13:59:21) ShilohOBrien snickers.
(06/06 13:59:24)  PodHopper: You have to go AROUND the blockers... y'know...
(06/06 13:59:44)  Calum Traveler: if people think I went a bit too soft on these lines, or wish for another person to do the lines,
(06/06 13:59:48)  Calum Traveler: we'll go for another rendition :)
(06/06 13:59:56)  Calum Traveler: but first and foremost i just wanted to get a new version out there.
(06/06 14:00:35)  Korov'ev: I'd like a GS Hartman option :)
(06/06 14:00:39)  shokhootahn Rehn: Are you keepig the D'ni speech artifacts?
(06/06 14:00:39)  Calum Traveler: finally, but by no means least,
(06/06 14:00:40)  Prad: I vocalized a german localization of the original ones ... but would be glad to do the same for some less 'pressing' ones :)
(06/06 14:00:43)  IwonK: Rand would make a great VA for the Wall ;)
(06/06 14:00:46)  Calum Traveler: yes, the dni audios are unaffected
(06/06 14:00:52)  IwonK: just sayin' ;)
(06/06 14:00:52)  Calum Traveler: only the english VA was replaced
(06/06 14:01:01)  shokhootahn Rehn: Yay!
(06/06 14:01:08)  Calum Traveler: finally,
(06/06 14:01:11) Calum Traveler clears throat
(06/06 14:01:20) Calum Traveler draws forth a small printed out PDF document
(06/06 14:01:28)  ShilohOBrien: Hmmmm?
(06/06 14:01:41)  Calum Traveler: Semjay is pleased to announce the upcoming Release (Date not Set yet) of Pod 56,
(06/06 14:01:44)  Calum Traveler: also known as "Jalargura"
(06/06 14:01:53) *Jodok* cheers
(06/06 14:01:54)  neurovac: Great work!
(06/06 14:01:58) IwonK cheers
(06/06 14:01:59)  Calum Traveler: The pod itself is a typical observation pod. It is labelled with a large D'ni "56" on the lower floor andthe roof. The main viewing window on the lower level has been smashed giving access to theenvironment outside
(06/06 14:01:59) Slingbelly cheers
(06/06 14:02:02) uru348 cheers
(06/06 14:02:05)  PodHopper: more pods! :D
(06/06 14:02:07) ShilohOBrien cheers
(06/06 14:02:09)  Dreamer3: Woot woot!
(06/06 14:02:15) Augur cheers
(06/06 14:02:19)  Calum Traveler: some history, from Semjay:
(06/06 14:02:20)  Mevvah: doooooooool
(06/06 14:02:28) shokhootahn Ana is laughing at Podhopper.
(06/06 14:02:32)  Calum Traveler: The pod was deposited in an empty desert and used by the Dni as an observation post.
(06/06 14:02:43)  IwonK: more hopping, Pod! :D 
(06/06 14:02:46)  Calum Traveler: Over time, it caught the attention of an indigenous population. They observed strange lights andmovement coming from within. The pod became an object of devotion and worship, and a largetemple was built around it. Gradually a large city, catering for pilgrims and tourists, surroundedthe temple.
(06/06 14:02:49)  Dreamer3: Somebody better put warning cones in front of the broken window.
(06/06 14:03:16)  Calum Traveler: Eventually, the occurrence of movement and light within the pod ceased. The indigenous people lost interest and drifted away. The city was abandoned. Desert reclaimed the city, engulfing it in sand.
(06/06 14:03:17)  Mevvah: lolDreamer
(06/06 14:03:26)  IwonK: I'd still kick them :P
(06/06 14:03:39)  Mevvah: me too iwonk
(06/06 14:04:19)  Calum Traveler: in 2025, Semjay purchased the Pod 56 book from the Explorer's Emporium.
(06/06 14:05:07)  Calum Traveler: Semjay carried out her survey, and found it suitable for explorers to visit. After completing her restoration, she has kindly donated the book to the Chiso Preniv Library.
(06/06 14:05:20)  Dreamer3: Ella is selling linking books for profit?!  I'm shocked!
(06/06 14:05:33)  Mevvah: shocked, I tell you!
(06/06 14:05:34) Calum Traveler shakes head slightly
(06/06 14:05:40)  Calum Traveler: that's all i have on history notes.
(06/06 14:06:03)  Calum Traveler: obviously, for those of you familiar with a certain recentish RAD contest, yes, Pod56 is one of the pods from that contest!
(06/06 14:06:22)  Calum Traveler: In March 2025, it came in fourth place. :)
(06/06 14:06:26) Mevvah claps her hands
(06/06 14:06:32)  Prad: still having to get a good deal with mrs darrington about the good wine in the Emporium cellars ...
(06/06 14:06:32)  Calum Traveler: it has been extensively updated since then.
(06/06 14:06:45)  Dreamer3: Will the book also be in the museum, or only in Chiso?
(06/06 14:06:55)  Calum Traveler: only in Chiso at this time,
(06/06 14:07:00)  ShilohOBrien: Ella hasn't added a Starbucks to it, has she?
(06/06 14:07:16) Mevvah starts to laugh
(06/06 14:07:17)  Calum Traveler: we do not have any plans to add to the Ae'gura Library or Museum at this moment.
(06/06 14:07:24)  Prad: *Starfissurebucks*
(06/06 14:07:30)  Calum Traveler: *ahhem*
(06/06 14:07:45)  Calum Traveler: i also can't promise this, as it's that "I'd like to squeak it in" thing,
(06/06 14:07:59) IwonK looks around for Thor
(06/06 14:08:11)  Calum Traveler: but assuming it works out timing wise, id like to get just the updated Eder Tomahn for Descent pushed through.
(06/06 14:08:17)  Calum Traveler: the doorway will be blocked off, of course,
(06/06 14:08:31)  Calum Traveler: if it doesnt work out, it doesnt work out,
(06/06 14:08:41)  Calum Traveler: but i think that would be a nice little teaser to tide everyone over for a little bit :)
(06/06 14:09:03)  Calum Traveler: alright, any questions?
(06/06 14:09:07)  caver1: What is "VA"?
(06/06 14:09:12)  Calum Traveler: VA - Voice Actor
(06/06 14:09:49)  PodHopper: none in my q...
(06/06 14:10:00)  Calum Traveler: any other Qs from audience?
(06/06 14:10:01) shokhootahn Rehn claps his hands
(06/06 14:10:03)  Calum Traveler: going once....
(06/06 14:10:06)  Mevvah: well if the english is the only part being redone for the Qall, it  might be ok ... the D'ni part is the drill-sergeant-y one
(06/06 14:10:10)  Calum Traveler: going twice...............
(06/06 14:10:31)  Calum Traveler: last chance....!
(06/06 14:10:39)  Calum Traveler: no? Okay. thank you all :)

(05/02 21:16:56) Brooketh: We are a friendly, social group of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level.

(05/02 21:17:05) IwonK: oh dear
(05/02 21:17:07) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.

(05/02 21:18:39) Korov'ev: The Lost Art mini-episode 16a, "EVAC", premiered on April 25: https://youtu.be/5TeFs6a9ES0
(05/02 21:18:45) Korov'ev: The minisode features a few special locations courtesy of Dulcamara!
(05/02 21:18:58) Korov'ev: And now, an update on the Fan Age Expeditions in Deep Island and Open Cave:
(05/02 21:19:18) Korov'ev: In Deep Island, last month we visited Enobmort, the cubic maze by J'Kla. I had to skip a session, so that was all for DI. In TOC, we visited the latest ages released: the Explorers' Emporium and Sameehn.
(05/02 21:19:38) Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in Deep Island, we'll visit some of TikiBear's creations. Then, we'll begin to travel back millions of years, in the Geologica ages 🙂
(05/02 21:20:01) Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, we've completed a cycle of expeditions! We'll take the First Journey again, starting in Eder Gira. We'll see what happens when an age with invites is reset.
(05/02 21:20:15) Korov'ev: A cursory test suggests that invites are *not* updated, and new ones have the same name. So if you have one, you may want to delete it, or you'll have to guess which one is correct 🙂
(05/02 21:20:31) Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, in Deep Island starting in the only hood there (use "/hood"); in the Open Cave, starting in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood.
(05/02 21:20:46) ShilohOBrien: Invite roulette. Cool.
(05/02 21:20:51) Korov'ev: There's also an (uncommented) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort
(05/02 21:20:51) Calum Traveler: (Tech answer: The Nexus maintains links to orphaned instances. )
(05/02 21:21:02) Korov'ev: More info and guidelines can be found at https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=111&t=7140
(05/02 21:21:08) Korov'ev: And that's all I got! Any questions?
(05/02 21:21:13) Calum Traveler: (So yes, new invites need to be sent to the new (#) instance of the age)
(05/02 21:21:22) PodHopper: No questions in the queue.
(05/02 21:21:28) Ereshkigal claps her hands
(05/02 21:21:31) Korov'ev: Yeah, the paradox is that people with invites seems to have access to the instance you deleted as long as they keep the invite 🙂
(05/02 21:21:35) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(05/02 21:21:37) Rex Havoc claps his hands

(05/02 21:21:45) Korov'ev: Back to my seat then!
(05/02 21:21:49) IndigoMoon claps her hands
(05/02 21:21:50) IwonK: 😀
(05/02 21:21:51) Calum Traveler: punny paradoxes
(05/02 21:21:51) Korov'ev bows

(05/02 21:22:45) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.
(05/02 21:22:57) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(05/02 21:23:08) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule.
(05/02 21:23:22) shokhootahn Rehn: (there already is a student scheduled for the Friday night classes)
(05/02 21:23:35) shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.
(05/02 21:24:06) shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(05/02 21:24:14) shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only. There are no weekend classes available.
(05/02 21:24:22) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(05/02 21:24:33) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(05/02 21:24:58) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(05/02 21:25:07) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager.
(05/02 21:25:25) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(05/02 21:25:31) PodHopper: No questions in the queue.
(05/02 21:25:34) Rex Havoc claps his hands
(05/02 21:25:37) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(05/02 21:25:40) philipgr claps his hands
(05/02 21:25:44) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(05/02 21:25:45) Ereshkigal claps her hands
(05/02 21:25:46) IndigoMoon claps her hands
(05/02 21:25:52) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(05/02 21:26:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the third story of four (#85 of 104) from the game, Myst III: Exile.
(05/02 21:26:23) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(05/02 21:26:38) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(05/02 21:26:57) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is "I'm a bot, do not message". Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(05/02 21:27:50) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(05/02 21:28:04) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(05/02 21:28:26) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(05/02 21:28:50) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(05/02 21:28:58) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(05/02 21:29:07) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(05/02 21:29:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(05/02 21:29:29) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(05/02 21:29:48) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(05/02 21:30:18) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(05/02 21:30:24) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(05/02 21:30:29) PodHopper: No questions in the queue.
(05/02 21:30:32) shokhootahn Rehn thanks you very much!
(05/02 21:30:35) PodHopper claps his hands

(05/02 21:31:09) ShilohOBrien claps her hands

(05/02 21:31:11) Rex Havoc claps his hands
(05/02 21:31:13) shokhootahn Rehn claps his hands
(05/02 21:31:22) Calum Traveler: the schedule will be finalized and posted "Soon(tm)" im told.
(05/02 21:31:31) Calum Traveler: (however soon that is, is Soon(tm))
(05/02 21:31:38) Calum Traveler shrugs
(05/02 21:31:52) Calum Traveler: i make no promises as to dates for things outside of my control
(05/02 21:31:59) Calum Traveler: similarly…
(05/02 21:32:01) Kahi laughs
(05/02 21:32:03) Calum Traveler: Area Status Updates:
(05/02 21:32:16) rarified: Calum Soon rather than Cyan Soon
(05/02 21:32:42) IndigoMoon: 🙂
(05/02 21:32:47) Calum Traveler: MahrnGestoy: due to the size of the area, and a wrist injury, we do expect it to take a lot longer than previously expected to make its way through the whole "Process"
(05/02 21:33:27) caver1: ?
(05/02 21:33:32) Calum Traveler: Jalargura(Pod56): No new updates, it should continue through unabided once other things move out of "Alpha" to "Prime."
(05/02 21:34:02) Calum Traveler: Descent:
(05/02 21:34:22) Calum Traveler: Due to an Earthquake several weeks ago, damage was sustained to the elevator rails in the Main Shaft Area.
(05/02 21:34:39) Calum Traveler: we expect work will continue to shore up the rails until the very last minute of release.
(05/02 21:35:07) Calum Traveler: you may or may not hear echoes of construction when visiting your Hood Instances at some point in the future, depending on when or if those instances ever "Catch Up" to our current work.
(05/02 21:35:26) Calum Traveler: i'd like to remind folks that we know little about how the Hood Instances truly work and how they "update" themselves.
(05/02 21:35:43) Calum Traveler: while Linking Books could be added to the main city and seemingly appear in hoods at the same time,
(05/02 21:35:51) Calum Traveler: other changes seemed to either never show up, or take forever to appear.
(05/02 21:36:01) Calum Traveler: for example: the colapse in the Kahlo Pub never migrated over,
(05/02 21:36:12) Calum Traveler: but the Memorial Imager took years before it finally echoed over into hood instances.
(05/02 21:36:43) Calum Traveler: we in our current era of the restoration have no clue when or if our work in Descent will carry over to the Hood instances,
(05/02 21:36:48) Calum Traveler: HOWEVER, if they do,
(05/02 21:37:05) Calum Traveler: you will immediately know by the fact that a barricade has been erected in the main doorway of the Rest Area tomahn,
(05/02 21:37:22) Calum Traveler: a tarp, and a horse barrier, will block the entry, until official release.
(05/02 21:37:35) Calum Traveler: again, i have no idea if or when this will happen for hood instances,
(05/02 21:37:42) Calum Traveler: i dont control the bahro or whatever yeesha magic is behind it.
(05/02 21:37:54) Kahi laughs
(05/02 21:38:26) Calum Traveler: finally: as I mentioned at the top of the Descent section
(05/02 21:38:58) Calum Traveler: the elevator rail sections were damaged in multiple places. we are hoping that it will be fully fixed at the time of release,
(05/02 21:39:32) Calum Traveler: do not worry about where we're getting the supplies for it: it seems some old D'ni engineer had the foresight to leave behind a storage room near the top of the shaft full of replacement items such as button triggers, extra rail segments, and even a whole intact elevator cart
(05/02 21:39:43) PodHopper: if not, a "free ride" will get a new meaning…
(05/02 21:39:57) Calum Traveler: we're hoping that once the repair work is done, nobody will be able to tell the difference.
(05/02 21:40:06) IndigoMoon laughs
(05/02 21:40:29) Calum Traveler: Guild of Messengers Pub: I'm still waiting on some supplies to come in for the 2026 Mysterium update,
(05/02 21:40:53) Calum Traveler: im hoping that will be ready sooner rather than later,
(05/02 21:40:58) Calum Traveler: time is getting close!
(05/02 21:41:27) Calum Traveler: any questions?
(05/02 21:41:33) ScottMiller: How soon will Descent e rrelesed?
(05/02 21:41:38) IwonK: what's the meaning of life again?
(05/02 21:41:42) Calum Traveler: we can't say for certain, Scott,
(05/02 21:41:48) IndigoMoon: 🙂
(05/02 21:41:48) caver1: 42
(05/02 21:41:51) Calum Traveler: the elevator damages pushed back our expectations,
(05/02 21:41:53) *Jodok*: 42
(05/02 21:42:00) ScottMiller: Can you give a bllpark figure?
(05/02 21:42:09) Calum Traveler: im still hopeful it will be sometime this year.
(05/02 21:42:10) ScottMiller: ballpark
(05/02 21:42:13) IwonK: that's what I thought 😀 and thanks for the fish 🙂
(05/02 21:42:21) Calum Traveler: but im not going to hold myself to that as a firm deadline
(05/02 21:42:22) Emor D'ni Lap: and there could be more earthquakes at any time!
(05/02 21:42:33) Calum Traveler: yes, the area is prone to Earthquakes.
(05/02 21:42:49) Brooketh: are these metaphorical earthquakes
(05/02 21:42:52) *Jodok*: It's a volcano no wonder
(05/02 21:43:08) Calum Traveler: metaphorical, literal, what's the difference?
(05/02 21:43:12) IndigoMoon: thanks for all the work on this, considering the danger and all
(05/02 21:43:14) Calum Traveler: they still happen and delay things.
(05/02 21:43:17) ScottMiller: I've been waiting years for Decent!
(05/02 21:43:21) Calum Traveler: we all have, Scott. 🙂
(05/02 21:43:26) Kahi laughs
(05/02 21:43:30) philipgr: D''niquakes
(05/02 21:43:32) Calum Traveler: we want to make sure this is done correctly, and with appropriate fanfare.
(05/02 21:43:34) *Jodok*: We all are waiting
(05/02 21:43:38) ScottMiller: Truw!
(05/02 21:43:47) rarified: Be careful what you wish for…
(05/02 21:43:48) ScottMiller: TRUE!
(05/02 21:44:05) Calum Traveler: questions? questions…?
(05/02 21:44:11) *Jodok*: Yes
(05/02 21:44:16) *Jodok* wants to ask a question…
(05/02 21:44:20) Calum Traveler: yes, Jodok?
(05/02 21:44:28) *Jodok*: Is descent similar to the demo?
(05/02 21:44:58) Calum Traveler: if you're referring to the "Dirt" exploration video someone posted to Youtube from, oh, the early 2000s?
(05/02 21:44:58) *Jodok*: dIRT Demo of desent
(05/02 21:45:11) ScottMiller: I'm more eggar for Decent than anythging else!
(05/02 21:45:18) Calum Traveler: then in most regards youll find that it's similar,
(05/02 21:45:29) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(05/02 21:45:43) Calum Traveler: but of course, that exploration video started at a different entrance location, and seemed to cut out several miles of tunnels
(05/02 21:45:47) *Jodok*: Okay probably except for the entry which now is eder kemo right?
(05/02 21:46:26) philipgr: Eder Gira
(05/02 21:46:27) *Jodok*: So we will enter from the cleft/volcano? like doobes intended it to be?
(05/02 21:46:34) Calum Traveler: i wont spoil things more than "Our dedicated link from Chiso Preniv will be from the Caldera"
(05/02 21:46:35) *Jodok*: Yeah gira sorry
(05/02 21:46:48) Calum Traveler: to* the caldera, rather, sorry
(05/02 21:47:01) *Jodok*: Okay fair
(05/02 21:47:06) *Jodok*: Thanx calum
(05/02 21:47:12) Calum Traveler: obviously, we can't strip away your Hood links, but again, see my previous statements about instancing
(05/02 21:47:19) rarified: You can always join the testing community 😉
(05/02 21:47:34) Emor D'ni Lap: IF you want to TEST[
(05/02 21:47:41) *Jodok*: i tried it on my old macbook it doesnt work
(05/02 21:47:43) ScottMiller: how do we do that?
(05/02 21:47:50) rarified: And don't mind spoilers
(05/02 21:47:53) Calum Traveler: i do not recommend joining testing if you only intend to get sneak peaks of things,
(05/02 21:48:03) IwonK: don't share spoilers too 😉
(05/02 21:48:05) Calum Traveler: or risk getting innundated with potentially dangerous environments,
(05/02 21:48:09) rarified: Correct. You need to work for your cookies.
(05/02 21:48:22) Calum Traveler: we also request that people *do not* share work in progress photos online without permission
(05/02 21:48:35) *Jodok*: Well testers should test like we saw in the videos of Summerfest
(05/02 21:48:42) IndigoMoon: I'm kind of interested in testing, knowing what's involved
(05/02 21:48:47) Calum Traveler: we've had a few folk posting photos of Descent on facebook,
(05/02 21:48:52) uru348: I'd say *someone* here exemplifies what Calum just said….
(05/02 21:49:03) Calum Traveler: the team lead, Ami, would like to request that people *do not do that*
(05/02 21:49:09) uru348: (and not in a good way)
(05/02 21:49:16) Calum Traveler: especially when earthquakes could damage an area leading to it looking vastly different later.
(05/02 21:49:22) rarified: We DO insist on courtesy to the restorers.
(05/02 21:49:41) Verna: How does one go about applying to join Testing?
(05/02 21:49:53) Calum Traveler: again, we very much appreciate people who wish to join testing, and i'll deferr questions to that to Rarified,
(05/02 21:50:03) Korov'ev: The bottom does look like a great location for rave parties
(05/02 21:50:21) rarified: Go to https://foundry.openuru.org
(05/02 21:50:23) Calum Traveler: but if all you're joining for is to get a look 'behind the curtain' and not offer us feedback? please, wait your turn.
(05/02 21:50:45) Verna: Thank you rarified
(05/02 21:50:47) Rex Havoc: I did Beta Test original Uru Live, Good times
(05/02 21:50:49) rarified: Also look at the testing section of http://forums.openuru.org/
(05/02 21:51:05) Calum Traveler: one last question.
(05/02 21:51:08) rarified: And finally join the OU Testing discord channel.
(05/02 21:51:08) Calum Traveler: then i have to go.
(05/02 21:51:14) Emor D'ni Lap: testing involves making detailed observations of minute things, filing reports including images, and more
(05/02 21:51:15) IndigoMoon: thanks rarified
(05/02 21:51:21) PodHopper: none in my queue
(05/02 21:51:22) *Jodok* thanks you
(05/02 21:51:25) Calum Traveler: any from the audience?

(04/04 13:21:27) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.

(04/04 13:21:46) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule.
(04/04 13:21:52) shokhootahn Rehn: (there already is a student scheduled for the Friday night classes)
(04/04 13:21:56) Korov'ev: All ages are welcome over to the Dark Side 😉
(04/04 13:22:08) shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.

(04/04 13:22:37) Mevvah claps her hands
(04/04 13:22:39) shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(04/04 13:22:46) shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only. There are no weekend classes available.
(04/04 13:22:56) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(04/04 13:23:06) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(04/04 13:23:30) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(04/04 13:23:43) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager.
(04/04 13:23:56) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(04/04 13:24:02) PodHopper: No questions in queue
(04/04 13:24:15) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(04/04 13:24:24) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(04/04 13:24:39) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the eighth and final story (#82 of 104) from the novel, Myst: The Book of D'ni!
(04/04 13:24:51) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(04/04 13:25:07) shokhootahn Rehn: Next week, April 11th, we will begin the story from the game, Myst III: Exile.
(04/04 13:25:21) shokhootahn Rehn: There will be no story on Saturday, April 25th, due to family obligations.
(04/04 13:25:36) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(04/04 13:26:03) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is "I'm a bot, do not message". Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(04/04 13:26:50) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(04/04 13:27:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(04/04 13:27:31) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(04/04 13:27:44) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(04/04 13:27:50) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(04/04 13:28:06) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(04/04 13:28:17) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(04/04 13:28:31) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(04/04 13:28:56) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(04/04 13:29:01) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(04/04 13:29:07) PodHopper: No questions in queue

(04/04 13:32:54) Calum Traveler: on cavern related notes
(04/04 13:33:00) Calum Traveler: i have NOT gotten the shirts in for the Pub yet
(04/04 13:33:07) Calum Traveler: i need to poke the committee again on that
(04/04 13:33:17) Calum Traveler: also, as an addendum to last month's announcement
(04/04 13:33:24) Calum Traveler: due to a communication error i made a mistake
(04/04 13:33:27) ScottMiller: Still too far! wish it would be held at Riverside, CA or San Diego!
(04/04 13:33:34) Calum Traveler: i said a "Cavern like" location was not actually in the Cavern,
(04/04 13:33:40) Calum Traveler: it actually is a Cavern Location.
(04/04 13:34:20) Calum Traveler: that area, MahrnGestoy, is the large one that will likely take some time to thoroughly test and make sure it is safe and ready.
(04/04 13:34:49) Calum Traveler: speaking of large areas,
(04/04 13:35:10) Calum Traveler: Descent is still moving along at pace. We've handed over the site to Keith "Tweek" Lord's group,
(04/04 13:35:30) Calum Traveler: he's been doing his own set of review checks over the site.
(04/04 13:35:47) ShilohOBrien is still trying to find the vaccum cleaners in Chiso.
(04/04 13:36:00) Calum Traveler: of note, i have heard some concerns this last week regarding whether explorer made marker missions will still be usable in Descent,
(04/04 13:36:06) IwonK: they suck, Shiloh
(04/04 13:36:16) Calum Traveler: i need to do some final checks once Tweek is done with his checks,
(04/04 13:36:28) Prad: Danger, vaccum.
(04/04 13:36:28) Calum Traveler: but i believe that old marker missions should still be playable,
(04/04 13:36:58) ShilohOBrien: I should hope so, IwonK. that's kind of their job. 😛
(04/04 13:37:04) Calum Traveler: as far as Nexus access, we're still looking into activating the nexus terminals, but there's been some small hiccups in that regard,
(04/04 13:37:39) Calum Traveler: for example, the rest area tomahn we're familiar with- its nexus terminal seems to have trouble registering the proper location and will either give you the right one or a completely wrong location,
(04/04 13:38:00) Calum Traveler: that feature, if it cant be sorted out, will likely be left disabled on phase 1 release.
(04/04 13:38:51) Calum Traveler: im looking into the possibility of sourcing one of the old Maintainer prototype Nexus facilities that isn't being used for Descent use specifically
(04/04 13:39:54) Calum Traveler: ill also be hopefully getting some new signs in for GoMePub and Chiso Preniv, after some questions ive had regarding management
(04/04 13:40:15) Calum Traveler: i believe you all know the story by now, but for those who dont, to ease those questions, ill be adding "Under New Management" signs,
(04/04 13:40:25) Calum Traveler: that's all i have for now
(04/04 13:40:27) Calum Traveler: any questions
(04/04 13:40:31) Mevvah: a comment please
(04/04 13:40:33) PodHopper: I have 1 question from Ro: will the new descent be private or public
(04/04 13:41:01) Mevvah yields until pod's question is answered
(04/04 13:41:01) Calum Traveler: @Ro: How can I control whether yeesha or the bahro intervene with how you access the site?
(04/04 13:41:32) Calum Traveler: i plan on having the access point through Chiso Preniv being public access, but i cant stop yall with using your City Books to access hood instances.
(04/04 13:41:43) Prad: I think the descent public/private/whatsoever has been actively discussed on OpenUru recently …
(04/04 13:41:47) Ro"Jethhe thanks you
(04/04 13:42:02) PodHopper: No other questions in queue
(04/04 13:42:08) Mevvah: may I
(04/04 13:42:13) Calum Traveler: Mevvah yesw
(04/04 13:42:13) PodHopper: yes
(04/04 13:42:14) Calum Traveler: go ahead
(04/04 13:42:40) Korov'ev: Someone bring Eddie, let's see if it reaches terminal velocity 🙂
(04/04 13:42:55) Ro"Jethhe says DOH!
(04/04 13:42:59) Prad: lol
(04/04 13:43:00) Calum Traveler winces at Korov'ev's remark,
(04/04 13:43:00) Mevvah: The request for minimizing chatter in the text chat is to keep the log more readable in the GoMe forum later. Please respact that. I say this as a "talker" myself, so I get how hard it is to keep quiet
(04/04 13:43:01) Claidi Song starts to laugh
(04/04 13:43:30) PodHopper: 1 more question: what is the status of ages mentioned previous meetings?
(04/04 13:43:51) Calum Traveler: as i mentioned in the previous meeting, the large area, MahrnGestoy, will be taking a long while to get through testing.
(04/04 13:44:00) Calum Traveler: it's very large, and Dulcamara's work crew is quite small.
(04/04 13:44:28) Calum Traveler: the other area, called "Jalargura" should still be unchanged from the status of 'probably being next to release unless something drastic happens'
(04/04 13:45:00) Calum Traveler: Mirtahm is still suspended. Pod12 and Overflow Station are on pause while Ami's work crew has been handling Descent,
(04/04 13:45:06) Calum Traveler: I havent heard anything from Reischu in a while.
(04/04 13:45:18) Calum Traveler: i got the feeling things got quite busy over there,
(04/04 13:45:40) Calum Traveler: any other projects that are being worked on, i cannot comment at this time as i dont have any other information.
(04/04 13:45:52) Calum Traveler: any more questions?
(04/04 13:45:55) PodHopper: Oh and yet another one from Philip: will the bahro stone in Aegura still work (the same)?
(04/04 13:46:05) Calum Traveler: again, how do I control the Bahro?
(04/04 13:46:14) Calum Traveler: unless the powers on high deem things worthy of change…
(04/04 13:46:22) Calum Traveler: i dont think that should be changing any.
(04/04 13:46:24) IwonK: with the "sudo" command
(04/04 13:46:29) Calum Traveler: youd have to ask Yeesha or the Maker or the Bahro.
(04/04 13:46:39) Calum Traveler: …id wager youd only get "Skreee!" from the last one.
(04/04 13:47:23) Calum Traveler: i can, of course, talk with the DRC about how they used to stow away bahro stones, but something tells me that wouldnt last long.
(04/04 13:47:42) Calum Traveler: historically, that never really worked, after all.
(04/04 13:48:06) Calum Traveler: ive got time for one more question
(04/04 13:48:23) PodHopper is checking something out
(04/04 13:48:27) Calum Traveler: going once….
(04/04 13:48:30) Calum Traveler: going twice….

(03/07 13:17:13) Brooketh: The Competitive Myst Online group cordially invites all cavern dwellers to our weekly social Ahyoheek game night, every Saturday from 21-22KI in the Competitive Myst Online Hood. Ahyoheek is a D'ni game very similar to Rock-Paper-Scissors.
(03/07 13:17:27) Brooketh: We are a friendly, social group of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(03/07 13:17:39) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.
(03/07 13:18:01) Brooketh: We do hope to see you there!

(03/07 13:19:46) Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in TOC, we'll visit Kalamee, an age originally planned by Cyan, but completed by Semjay. After that, we'll visit Eder Bahvahnter and the Memorial Island.

(03/07 13:20:35) Korov'ev: Importantly, as the US is starting the Time Saving Dance, for a few weeks starting tomorrow the Expeditions will be at 12:00 KIT (still 19:00 CET).

(03/07 13:23:06) Mevvah: Ah
(03/07 13:23:14) Prad: TOC has the newer fan ages by now, too.
(03/07 13:23:17) PodHopper: Cavern Tours are in Moula

(03/07 13:23:24) ShilohOBrien: There may be a Moula tour returning inOctober.
(03/07 13:23:37) Korov'ev: Cavern TOurs are a different thing 😉
(03/07 13:23:49) PodHopper: yes
(03/07 13:24:07) Korov'ev: They're taking a year off to recharge
(03/07 13:24:16) PodHopper: no other questions?
(03/07 13:24:27) Dreamer3: D'ni batteries are old and have a long recharge time.
(03/07 13:24:37) shokhootahn Rehn: lol
(03/07 13:24:44) PodHopper claps his hands

(03/07 13:25:35) Mr.Rogers claps his hands
(03/07 13:25:39) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.
(03/07 13:25:44) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(03/07 13:25:53) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule.
(03/07 13:26:06) shokhootahn Rehn: (there already is a student scheduled for the Friday night classes)
(03/07 13:26:17) shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.
(03/07 13:26:42) shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(03/07 13:26:50) shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only. There are no weekend classes available.
(03/07 13:27:00) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(03/07 13:27:09) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(03/07 13:27:36) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(03/07 13:27:46) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager…
(03/07 13:27:56) shokhootahn Rehn: As I've said, before, one of my former students, Yutiel, is listed on that imager. I have refrained from posting pellets to maintain her name at the top as a form of memorial. It's why I haven't posted pellet points above 168345: it was to keep her name at the top of the list.
(03/07 13:28:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(03/07 13:28:28) PodHopper: I have one
(03/07 13:28:33) PodHopper: From M. Rogers: are there introductory classes without appointment?
(03/07 13:30:00) shokhootahn Rehn: Unfortunately, no. The 101 class has 6 lessons, though most students usually need an extra week for two of the lessons because of the volume of information.
(03/07 13:30:24) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, my time is somewhatlimited due to surface life.
(03/07 13:30:50) shokhootahn Rehn: The same is true for the other instructors.
(03/07 13:31:04) shokhootahn Rehn: *somewhat limited
(03/07 13:31:52) Mr.Rogers: Thank you.
(03/07 13:31:52) shokhootahn Rehn: Special times may be arranged if the current times are not good for you.
(03/07 13:32:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Contact me on Discord and we can arrange a time for you. 🙂
(03/07 13:32:19) Dreamer3: Is college credit available for D'ni language classes?
(03/07 13:32:19) shokhootahn Rehn: Any other questions?
(03/07 13:32:23) Mr.Rogers: I'm not on Discord, but thank you.
(03/07 13:32:28) Mevvah: Don't we wish
(03/07 13:32:34) PodHopper: no other in queue
(03/07 13:32:35) shokhootahn Rehn: lol@Dreamer3. nThat would be nice, no?
(03/07 13:32:36) Lucario1829: haha
(03/07 13:32:47) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(03/07 13:32:55) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(03/07 13:33:21) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the fifth story (#79 of 104) from the novel, Myst: The Book of D'ni!
(03/07 13:33:37) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(03/07 13:34:15) shokhootahn Rehn: Though, for next week, and in honor of International Women's Day, I will be telling a special story: Strong Women in D'ni History.
(03/07 13:35:19) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is "I'm a bot, do not message". Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(03/07 13:35:38) shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I am also providing caption translations into several languages: French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. Since I don't speak any of those languages, it will be up to my viewers to tell me how well that is working out. 🙂
(03/07 13:35:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Let me know if you would like to see any additional translations.
(03/07 13:35:56) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(03/07 13:36:05) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(03/07 13:36:22) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(03/07 13:36:38) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(03/07 13:36:47) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(03/07 13:36:55) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(03/07 13:37:04) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(03/07 13:37:13) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(03/07 13:37:24) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(03/07 13:37:51) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(03/07 13:37:55) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(03/07 13:38:05) PodHopper: none in queue

(03/07 13:39:43) Calum Traveler: this corner will now be called, "The Reference Corner"

(03/07 13:40:40) Calum Traveler: Our Dear Friend Minasunda will now have her own desk!
(03/07 13:40:44) Lucario1829 cheers

(03/07 13:41:17) Calum Traveler: Additionally, another new Age has just begun the testing rounds,
(03/07 13:41:32) ShilohOBrien: Where are the vaccum cleaners? That basement needs a good cleaning!
(03/07 13:41:33) Ereshkigal cheers
(03/07 13:41:33) Mevvah: OoooOOOOoooo
(03/07 13:41:34) Calum Traveler: this one primarily restored by Dulcamara
(03/07 13:41:42) ShilohOBrien: WOOOT!!
(03/07 13:41:44) Calum Traveler: the floor will get sweept up, shiloh
(03/07 13:41:55) Calum Traveler: and im looking for an appropriate welcome mat to place on the link in
(03/07 13:42:12) ShilohOBrien volunteers as tribute…I mean cleaning staff.
(03/07 13:42:25) Calum Traveler: now, the new Age submitted by Dulcamara is LARGE
(03/07 13:42:37) Calum Traveler: larger than the recently announced age that Semjay has put forwards.
(03/07 13:42:41) Calum Traveler: let me put it like this,
(03/07 13:42:45) Calum Traveler: if a Pod age is a Pea,
(03/07 13:42:48) Calum Traveler: and Eder Naybree is a Carrot,
(03/07 13:42:59) Calum Traveler: then the new age is the rest of the chicken pot pie.
(03/07 13:43:07) Mevvah: yAY!!
(03/07 13:43:09) IndigoMoon: whoa
(03/07 13:43:10) caver1: OOOOOOOOO
(03/07 13:43:10) ShilohOBrien blinks
(03/07 13:43:12) Lucario1829: exciting
(03/07 13:43:15) philipgr: Nice
(03/07 13:43:17) Emrai cheers
(03/07 13:43:17) Calum Traveler: this is just in terms of sheer scale,
(03/07 13:43:19) Calum Traveler: as such
(03/07 13:43:22) Mr.Rogers: Sounds delicious.
(03/07 13:43:25) Dreamer3: Whoa!
(03/07 13:43:31) Prad: sounds like lots of testing too
(03/07 13:43:31) Calum Traveler: while i still cannot commit to release dates
(03/07 13:43:43) Hey, man!: wow man!
(03/07 13:43:43) ShilohOBrien: Which is coincidentally thename of the age. JK!
(03/07 13:43:43) Ereshkigal: This sounds like it is as big as Spire or Haven!
(03/07 13:43:45) Mevvah rubs her hands together and chuckles maniacally with a rollercoaster grin
(03/07 13:43:48) Calum Traveler: i do expect that the new age will take much longer to go through than the one that Semjay provided,
(03/07 13:44:01) Lucario1829: understandable
(03/07 13:44:08) Dreamer3: Is it based off a deep island fan age or totally new to us?
(03/07 13:44:29) Calum Traveler: so, in terms of release order, its likely that Semjay's project, Jalargura, will release first, and Dulcamara's new age, will release after it, assuming other projects dont slip in between
(03/07 13:44:49) Calum Traveler: im still hopeful to get Reischu or Pod12 out this year, but, Descent has been hoarding a lot of resources as well.
(03/07 13:45:13) Lucario1829 nods
(03/07 13:45:18) IndigoMoon: ahh
(03/07 13:45:33) Calum Traveler: Dreamer3 i cannot say for certain, as im not familiar with that particular private release scene
(03/07 13:46:01) Calum Traveler: what i can tell you is that Dulcamara's project seems to date back to the Pre-Fall era, going by the architecture on the scene,
(03/07 13:46:11) Calum Traveler: it IS an age, as far as i have been told,
(03/07 13:46:18) Calum Traveler: even if it does look like it could be in the Cavern,
(03/07 13:46:22) Ereshkigal: I love pre-Fall D'ni! The more ancient the better
(03/07 13:46:49) Dreamer3: : )
(03/07 13:46:52) Calum Traveler: other than that, ill leave future release information to those dates,
(03/07 13:47:08) Calum Traveler: i know everyone is excited about Descent,
(03/07 13:47:10) Calum Traveler: me too,
(03/07 13:47:19) JessicaRabbit cheers
(03/07 13:47:26) Calum Traveler: we just have a few more final to-do's on the physical end for Phase 1,
(03/07 13:47:43) Calum Traveler: we're hoping to hand the project over to Tweek as well for one final pass over review,
(03/07 13:48:10) ShilohOBrien makes mental note to leave some first aid and survival kits in the Chiso basement.
(03/07 13:48:11) Calum Traveler: it is my hope that this should all be available before Mysterium, BUT i am not going to commit to a date at this time.
(03/07 13:48:12) Prad: read a bit on openuru about it. descent being a cooperative delegated work project now.
(03/07 13:48:26) Calum Traveler: yes, Descent has been bouncing between several teams,
(03/07 13:48:53) Calum Traveler: my overflow crew, Ametist's, TikiBear's, and also Semjay's here and there,
(03/07 13:48:59) Calum Traveler: oh, speaking of Semjay,
(03/07 13:49:07) Calum Traveler: she is working on her own section of the Descent route,
(03/07 13:49:17) Calum Traveler: coming in from behind what should be my end's Phase 2,
(03/07 13:49:27) Calum Traveler: this area is what most have historically called "The Bug Cave"
(03/07 13:49:45) Mevvah does not like the sound of that nickname
(03/07 13:49:45) Calum Traveler: but that is all the information i have to share at this time,
(03/07 13:49:52) Prad: a challenging section
(03/07 13:50:03) IndigoMoon: interesting
(03/07 13:50:11) Calum Traveler: ostensibly, the connections between Phase 1 and the Bug Cave will have to wait until Phase 2 is completed, regardless of if Semjay finishes her work first or second,
(03/07 13:50:33) Calum Traveler: after all, the bug cave is past the mines and tunnels that make up Phase 2
(03/07 13:51:03) rarified: NB: Calum has been tireless shepherding multiple projects through the pipeline. Thank you, Calum!
(03/07 13:51:03) Calum Traveler: any questions?
(03/07 13:51:10) Mr.Rogers: Will there be maps?
(03/07 13:51:10) Hey, man!: nah
(03/07 13:51:10) PodHopper: From r'Tay: Will the frog cave be included as well?
(03/07 13:51:29) Calum Traveler: r'tay, if someone finds a frog cave, id imagine so.
(03/07 13:51:39) Mevvah: I like frogs much better than bugs…. can thephobic skip the bugs?
(03/07 13:51:43) rarified: If anyone can, Tweek will.
(03/07 13:51:55) ShilohOBrien: It would be ribbit-ing.
(03/07 13:52:07) Calum Traveler: im uncertain, Mevvah, but id imagine that one would just have to find the right nexus terminals,
(03/07 13:52:22) Calum Traveler: there seem to be several along the path, starting from the eder tomahn and going downwards,
(03/07 13:52:33) Dreamer3: I you bring a giant frog with you, the bugs will leave you alone.
(03/07 13:52:40) Mevvah: Done!
(03/07 13:52:43) Calum Traveler: there's one just past the Shaft Floor, in the Fan Node T Junction,
(03/07 13:52:53) Prad: Or a giant Ytram.
(03/07 13:53:02) Calum Traveler: im hoping to get these terminals connected, but I'm waiting on some prep work on the nexus from Hazado's end of things.
(03/07 13:53:50) Calum Traveler: so that said if the terminals dont register your KI when Phase 1 releases, just note that theyll be reactivated at a later date.
(03/07 13:54:12) Calum Traveler: theoretically, all one would have to do to bypass the bugcave would be have a link to an area beyond it and find a nexus terminal there.
(03/07 13:54:24) Calum Traveler shrugs
(03/07 13:54:35) Calum Traveler: but we're still trying to chart out a proper course at this point,
(03/07 13:54:41) Mr.Rogers: In addition to the emergency medical kits, can we stock some headlamps?
(03/07 13:54:55) Calum Traveler: there have been many colapses over the centuries, so the official D'ni route has broken
(03/07 13:55:14) Dreamer3: Does Gehn's map still work?
(03/07 13:55:30) Mevvah: Good idea, Mr. Rogers
(03/07 13:55:44) Calum Traveler: Mr.Rogers i believe some work is being done towards the KI light, as we've found atleast two 'small scale' recharge terminals
(03/07 13:55:54) caver1: I have not seen a working head lamp in here.
(03/07 13:55:58) Mr.Rogers cheers
(03/07 13:56:23) Calum Traveler: Dreamer3 in the abstract, i only have copies of Aitrus' map so if that's what you mean by Gehn's Map,
(03/07 13:56:27) Prad: The DRC people had headlamp helmets
(03/07 13:56:46) Calum Traveler: then to a *slight* degree, yes? I suppose the route works, but it's not a very detailed map in terms of actual directions,
(03/07 13:56:56) Calum Traveler: and it doesnt account for changes in geography since it was made.
(03/07 13:57:08) Lucario1829: a friend of mine made it through most of the DIRT demo with no torch, i dont think theyll be needing a lamp lol
(03/07 13:57:14) caver1: The DRC lamps do NOT work.
(03/07 13:57:24) Calum Traveler: yes, DRC ResEng's have headlamp hardhats, no, im not able to requisition them.
(03/07 13:57:28) IndigoMoon: some lights set up along the route will help
(03/07 13:57:32) Prad: it also seems hand drawn … not designed in a CAD program …
(03/07 13:57:54) Calum Traveler: one last question,
(03/07 13:58:00) Calum Traveler: any for me?
(03/07 13:58:02) philipgr: Night vision goggles are perhaps an option
(03/07 13:58:09) PodHopper: none in queue
(03/07 13:58:13) Calum Traveler: any from audience?
(03/07 13:58:16) shokhootahn Rehn: One more question…
(03/07 13:58:19) Calum Traveler: 🙂
(03/07 13:58:40) shokhootahn Rehn: Will there be lights that can be activated aloing the path as in the DIRT demo?
(03/07 13:59:01) Calum Traveler: in Phase 1, or the Bug Cave?
(03/07 13:59:17) shokhootahn Rehn: After phase 1.
(03/07 13:59:30) Calum Traveler: Phase 2 and the Bug Cave, i believe there are lights that can be turned on, yes,
(03/07 13:59:30) shokhootahn Rehn: (the path after teh Great Shaft)
(03/07 13:59:38) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(03/07 13:59:39) Calum Traveler: the mines are particularly dark,
(03/07 13:59:46) Calum Traveler: which seems to be where the KI light terminals come in,
(03/07 14:00:02) Calum Traveler: i'd wager there's probably some extra power setups going on there as well
(03/07 14:00:22) Hey, man!: did I crash again?
(03/07 14:00:30) Calum Traveler: and i suspect our engineer is going to have her hands full with reconnecting power lines
(03/07 14:00:37) PodHopper: I don't know Hey, man!
(03/07 14:00:40) Calum Traveler: on that note, im going to call it
(03/07 14:00:42) Calum Traveler bows

(02/07 13:14:33) Prad: Babbeltje and me have am ongoing project bringing back the cavern choir in the works, where I want to give you a status report.
(02/07 13:14:47) Prad: First of all – for everyone who wants to become a member of the choir, we have three simple recommendations for participation:
(02/07 13:14:59) Prad: 1.) You need to be able to sing (to be able to carry a tune, to be exact). I trust on your judgement and people you know well for that – we don't do a qualifying examination atm.
(02/07 13:15:12) Prad: 2.) You don't need to be able to read a musical sheet, but you need to be able to sing along a demo voice we provide for each voice of the choir.
(02/07 13:15:26) Prad: 3.) You need something to record music with, like usually microphone + headphone, some PC/Laptop with a soundcard and some recording program (there's a bunch of freeware which suffices our purposes)
(02/07 13:15:44) Prad: Second about our status: For a planned spring concert we had a brainstorming going between 29th of january and 5th of february in the cavern choir discord channel "cavernchoir-was-moulachoir" of Babbeltjes discord server "Server van VrouwDinges" where people could make song suggestions.
(02/07 13:16:01) Prad: From that we have decided to sing "Happy Birthday" (4 voices, traditional), "Ave Verum Corpus" from W.A. Mozart (4 voices, classical) and "only You" by Voces8/"Flying Pickets" (4 voices, popular ACapella).
(02/07 13:16:20) Prad: The recording tracks which to sing along during the recordings as well as the musical scores (for those who can make use of them – there are always some) will be put on the discord server of babbeltje in the choir channel either end of this week (tomorrow) or start of next week.
(02/07 13:16:37) Prad: So for recording of the songs we will have a timeframe of start of next week until the 8th of march – that will be the deadline for sending in the recordings.
(02/07 13:16:50) Prad: You send in your recordings (which everyone records for themselves – I will do the final mixing) in mp3 format WITHOUT backing track (mute that channel before exporting in your recording program – each software has something like that),
(02/07 13:17:04) Prad: something above 125 kbps but not necessarily above 200 kbps playback bandwidth, to the cavern choir discord channel of Babbeltjes discord server – or contact us in cavern so we can do the data exchange in email attachments if you don't have a discord account.
(02/07 13:17:20) Prad: The success of a cavern choir depents on participants of course, so I hope that all who are already members of cavern choir or who want to join for the spring concert will have fun in contributing their voices.
(02/07 13:17:33) Prad: Last but not least: Stay healthy (nobody can sing with a strong cold, of course).
(02/07 13:17:43) Prad needs a moment to breathe!
(02/07 13:17:57) Prad: That's all from me by now.

(02/07 13:20:27) Augur: For March, in honor of International Women's Day, we will again be selecting between three speculative fiction novels written by women. We will be meeting on March 21st, at 12:30 KI in Nezetahn's Hood's Eder Delin.
(02/07 13:20:44) Augur: The three books are: "Legendborn" by Tracy Deonn, "Circe" by Madeline Miller, and "The Husbands" by Holly Gramazio".
(02/07 13:20:58) Augur: Descriptions of the books and voting can be done in either the MOULa Community Music, Movies, & Games Discord in the "Book Club" channel or the MOULa Events Discord in the "Discussion MOULa Events" channel.
(02/07 13:21:18) Augur: Please vote for all the books you are interested in, but only in one of the two places to prevent duplicate voting.
(02/07 13:21:33) Augur: You can also message me directly on Discord to vote if that is easier for you. I am "augurdog" there. 🙂
(02/07 13:21:50) Augur: As always everyone is welcome at the Cavern Book Club. By no means do you need to "commit" to coming every meeting. But if a book interests you, join us!
(02/07 13:22:03) Augur: Any questions?

(02/07 13:23:17) Brooketh: We are a friendly, social group of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(02/07 13:23:42) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.

(02/07 13:25:08) Korov'ev: I bring you an update on the Fan Age Expeditions, on the Deep Island and Open Cave shards!
(02/07 13:25:16) Korov'ev: We kicked off January in DI with a door run and a visit to a couple of ages we missed. Then, we visited few garden and demo ages from 2008: Tunnel Demo, Wianeroy, ERC Age and Torilacha.
(02/07 13:25:23) Korov'ev: Last week (exped. #291), we examined the work of the late Andy Legate: Camp Bravo, Eder Bahvahnin, Eder Tomahn, Andy's Nexus, Serene.
(02/07 13:25:35) Korov'ev: On the Open Cave, we have begun to visit the fan ages that made it to MOULa!
(02/07 13:25:44) Korov'ev: First those from 2020: Chiso Preniv, New GoMe Pub, Veelay Tsahvahn. Then those from 2021: Tre'bivdil, Vothol Gallery, Serene (again), Tiam.
(02/07 13:25:48) *Jodok* claps his hands
(02/07 13:26:02) Korov'ev: What's next this month? In Deep Island, we'll visit the entries from the 2nd Rapid Age Development Contest, all Ahra Pahts shells. After that, we'll nose around in Whilyam's ages 🙂
(02/07 13:26:22) Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, tomorrow we'll move on to 2022, starting with Elonin and Fahets Highgarden. Eder Naybree is large enough that will get its own expedition on the 22nd 🙂
(02/07 13:26:37) Calum Traveler: ^^;;;
(02/07 13:26:47) Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in Deep Island's only hood ("/hood"), and in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood in the Open Cave.
(02/07 13:26:58) Korov'ev: To join, you'll be asked to sign a liability waiver (in blood). Don't worry about the micron-sized paragraphs, there's nothing important there 😉

(02/07 13:32:44) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager.
(02/07 13:32:45) Ereshkigal cheers
(02/07 13:33:00) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(02/07 13:33:07) PodHopper: No questions in the queue.
(02/07 13:33:13) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(02/07 13:33:18) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(02/07 13:33:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the third story (#77 of 104) from the novel, Myst: The Book of D'ni!
(02/07 13:33:57) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(02/07 13:34:14) shokhootahn Rehn: There will be no story on Saturday, the 14th, due to family obligations.
(02/07 13:34:57) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night will return the following week, February 21.
(02/07 13:35:12) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is "I'm a bot, do not message". Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(02/07 13:35:32) shokhootahn Rehn: The channel is current through April 10, 2021.
(02/07 13:35:56) shokhootahn Rehn: (I have a bit of a backlog that Iam slowly working through)
(02/07 13:36:09) shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I am also providing caption translations into several languages: French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. Since I don't speak any of those languages, it will be up to my viewers to tell me how well that is working out. 🙂
(02/07 13:36:14) shokhootahn Rehn: Let me know if you would like to see any additional translations.
(02/07 13:36:32) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(02/07 13:36:41) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(02/07 13:36:58) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(02/07 13:37:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(02/07 13:37:28) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(02/07 13:37:33) *Jodok* wants to ask a question…
(02/07 13:37:42) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(02/07 13:37:57) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(02/07 13:38:10) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(02/07 13:38:22) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(02/07 13:38:49) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(02/07 13:38:59) shokhootahn Rehn: *Jodok*, you have a question?
(02/07 13:39:05) *Jodok*: question is this 2 weeks alternation going on for more time like regularly?
(02/07 13:39:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Not regularly.
(02/07 13:39:49) *Jodok* thanks you
(02/07 13:39:57) PodHopper: no other questions in queue
(02/07 13:39:58) shokhootahn Rehn: There *may* be one more before Story Nigt returns to it's weekly time table.
(02/07 13:40:16) shokhootahn Rehn: *Night

(02/07 13:41:09) Calum Traveler: apologies for a little out of orderness
(02/07 13:41:26) Calum Traveler: the first one is a request ive receieved for information by a few concerned explorers,
(02/07 13:41:51) Calum Traveler: our dear Greeter friend Etelka has been MIA for about a month now, and nobody has any information about where she is or what her current status is.
(02/07 13:42:04) Calum Traveler: if you know anything, please pass that information along to Sleeper Jan, or Andrew Yosso
(02/07 13:42:20) Ereshkigal: I hope she's okay!!!
(02/07 13:42:30) Claidi Song: I hope all is well for her!
(02/07 13:42:31) Calum Traveler: hopefully she's just busy dealing with IRL stuff and nothing bad has happened, but
(02/07 13:42:37) Calum Traveler: if you know anything, please let them know.
(02/07 13:42:41) Emor D'ni Lap is surprised Andrew has no other contact for Etelka
(02/07 13:42:46) Calum Traveler: second item, Mysterium:
(02/07 13:42:56) Calum Traveler: the Hotel Booking page is now LIVE

(02/07 13:45:12) Thumbs up from Claidi Song
(02/07 13:45:13) Calum Traveler: similarly, I believe Phase 1 is locked down fairly well and it's just in the polish stage now.
(02/07 13:45:37) Calum Traveler: once i get some music tracks from Semjay and Maurus, that's all Im really waiting on
(02/07 13:45:41) Calum Traveler: beyond hammering out tiny details.
(02/07 13:45:49) Calum Traveler: i also believe it SHOULD hopefully release this year.

(02/07 13:46:08) Prad: *love*
(02/07 13:46:09) Emrai cheers
(02/07 13:46:16) Calum Traveler: i plan on putting out a public Descent link in Chiso Preniv's basement.
(02/07 13:46:26) Calum Traveler: you probably already know where
(02/07 13:46:29) Daniel452: cool!
(02/07 13:46:32) shokhootahn Rehn nods his head
(02/07 13:46:33) Calum Traveler: Third: Chiso Preniv
(02/07 13:46:56) Calum Traveler: so not much is going to change *too drastically* in Chiso in the coming months… that is, unless you count a ton of books being added 😀
(02/07 13:47:15) *Jodok*: yayyyy
(02/07 13:47:18) Calum Traveler: Korov'ev has recently provided me with three different lore documents, split up into smaller chapter sized volumes,
(02/07 13:47:25) Calum Traveler: the first one is THE LARA DOCUMENTS
(02/07 13:47:34) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(02/07 13:47:45) Korov'ev: Hopefully they'll be interesting readings 🙂
(02/07 13:47:49) Calum Traveler: as JD Barnes never was able to fully authenticate their validity, they will be going into what is temporarily being called Chiso's new "Unverified Lineage" shelf
(02/07 13:48:10) Calum Traveler: in future, any documents that seem legit, but could not be plausibly verified, will wind up here.
(02/07 13:48:16) rarified: Are there enough tables for everyone to be reading at the same time :O
(02/07 13:48:37) Calum Traveler: Second, a rename to the extant shelf that had some documents there,
(02/07 13:48:44) Calum Traveler: additionally, new dust covers!
(02/07 13:48:57) *Jodok*: yeepeeee
(02/07 13:49:01) Calum Traveler: Preafter, The Heritage Documents, and Activity in the Cavern will be getting a small visual refresh
(02/07 13:49:11) Calum Traveler: additionally, the other two volumes provided by Korov'ev will be added here
(02/07 13:49:23) Calum Traveler: to what is being now called the Explorers' Historical Retrospectives shelf.
(02/07 13:49:42) neurovac: this is all fabulous news!
(02/07 13:49:43) Claidi Song cheers
(02/07 13:49:45) Calum Traveler: the first volume is "A Journey without Ending" a series of summary posts by Max, back on the old Guild of Messengers website
(02/07 13:49:46) Daniel452 cheers
(02/07 13:49:49) Korov'ev: Designing book covers is fun 🙂
(02/07 13:50:09) Claidi Song: 🙂
(02/07 13:50:13) Calum Traveler: the second volume is "The Restoration So Far" – a series of retrospectives vidkid posted on the old Myst Online forums,
(02/07 13:50:35) Calum Traveler: it's not complete yet, but if/when i get the rest of his works, theyll be added.
(02/07 13:50:45) Calum Traveler: now then,
(02/07 13:50:52) Calum Traveler: youll notice ive been mentioning shelf names
(02/07 13:51:11) Calum Traveler: new STANDING SIGNS- with logo artwork done by Keith "Tweek" Lord- will be put in place by various bookshelves
(02/07 13:51:19) Prad: I've nearly given up translating to german, gotten behind with translations – I think that game needs translator teams by now – delegating work …
(02/07 13:51:42) Calum Traveler: Unverified Lineage, Explorers Historical Retrospectives, Web Forum Archives, and, Linking Books,
(02/07 13:52:05) Calum Traveler: Linking Books, of course, will be standing next to the Linking Book Shelf.
(02/07 13:52:32) Calum Traveler: when Trebivdil was moved over, i receieved some reports of explorers having trouble finding it and Serene,
(02/07 13:52:43) Calum Traveler: so, these standing signs should help folks find what theyre looking for.
(02/07 13:52:53) Calum Traveler: ah, right, and there's that fourth one i just mentioned
(02/07 13:52:56) Calum Traveler: Web Forum Archives.
(02/07 13:53:17) Calum Traveler: it has been my own thought, as well as the perspective of a few others, that the Heritage Docs alone are not a "Definitive" perspective on cavern history
(02/07 13:53:40) Calum Traveler: to that end, I've always wanted to rectify that by bringing in the actual history in an undeniable format.
(02/07 13:53:58) Calum Traveler: i've started that work by backing up the DniExplorer Forums, that Tweek has run the last few years,
(02/07 13:54:11) Calum Traveler: but that is not all i plan on doing
(02/07 13:54:22) Calum Traveler: once Tweek gets some free time, hes going to send me his backups of the DRC Forums
(02/07 13:54:24) Korov'ev: Chiso's loc file is growing to blimp size 🙂
(02/07 13:54:45) Daniel452: 🙂
(02/07 13:54:51) Calum Traveler: i am hoping to have all of that in place before anything leaves the Proofreading stage on MinkAlpha
(02/07 13:54:59) Calum Traveler: but, given how busy Tweek has been,,,
(02/07 13:55:14) Calum Traveler: well, im just letting you know that its not by choice only the current era of history will be available.
(02/07 13:55:23) Calum Traveler: im just working with whats available
(02/07 13:55:34) Calum Traveler: in addition to old forum posts,
(02/07 13:55:40) Calum Traveler: im adding chatlog repositories
(02/07 13:55:49) Calum Traveler: just for the DniExplorer forums…
(02/07 13:55:53) Calum Traveler: that is 10 volumes of chatlogs,
(02/07 13:55:58) Calum Traveler: and about 20 volumes of forum posts.
(02/07 13:56:06) Calum Traveler: i dont expect anyone to read all of it
(02/07 13:56:15) Calum Traveler: im just adding it for the archival purposes.
(02/07 13:56:23) Calum Traveler: its a lot of words.
(02/07 13:56:31) Dreamer3: enought build a big chat-log cabin
(02/07 13:56:35) Calum Traveler: my hope, somewhat naivly,
(02/07 13:56:36) rarified: Trivia contest night for passages from the docs?
(02/07 13:56:45) Emor D'ni Lap says DOH!
(02/07 13:56:50) Calum Traveler: is that one day, the repository in Chiso will be a living library
(02/07 13:57:00) Calum Traveler: our history, preserved, for future generations
(02/07 13:57:36) Calum Traveler: to that end, if folks have documents they wish submitted to Chiso Preniv, please reach out to me either on discord (HarleyTraveler263) or to any of my myriad KI#s here in cavern
(02/07 13:57:41) uru348: Any chance for a Town Hall this month?
(02/07 13:57:48) Calum Traveler: potentially.
(02/07 13:57:57) Calum Traveler: i canceled last month because i was busy with the chiso and descent work
(02/07 13:58:15) Calum Traveler: we'll see how my schedule falls into alignment this month
(02/07 13:58:35) Calum Traveler: any questions?
(02/07 13:58:37) Ro"Jethhe: Will the Great Shaft be ready to be uploaded this year?
(02/07 13:58:37) PodHopper: Emor D'ni Lap has a question about chiso
(02/07 13:58:41) Calum Traveler: yes, Emor D'ni Lap?
(02/07 13:59:03) Emor D'ni Lap: sen/sit
(02/07 13:59:23) Emor D'ni Lap: sent to PodHopper, to be passed along
(02/07 13:59:23) Prad: ?
(02/07 13:59:33) Calum Traveler: alright, pod, what was his q?
(02/07 13:59:50) PodHopper: have to scroll back
(02/07 13:59:53) Calum Traveler: Ro"Jethhe – as i said earlier, it is my hope it will be opened this year.
(02/07 14:00:00) Ro"Jethhe cheers
(02/07 14:00:08) Calum Traveler: im not spitting out dates until we have things locked down.
(02/07 14:00:17) Emor D'ni Lap: PodHoppe, I'll ask Calum later
(02/07 14:00:23) Thumbs up from Calum Traveler
(02/07 14:00:23) Darryl Pogue: Any news on the work by OpenUru to upgrade to the modern H'uru client? It's been a while since we've heard any status updates there…
(02/07 14:00:28) Ro"Jethhe: been exploring Descent at Alpha and it's looking better each time.
(02/07 14:00:45) PodHopper: it's gone, but it's still in your history Emor
(02/07 14:01:02) Calum Traveler: so, Darryl Pogue. that is something i need to circle back on with rarified about, after last year's… unnecessarily necessary rebuild of tools
(02/07 14:01:04) rarified: I've had to deal with some RL issues over the last few months, so not much progress.
(02/07 14:01:18) Calum Traveler: as you all know, rarified had to deal with tool rebuilding *and* … well, yeah.
(02/07 14:01:19) Emor D'ni Lap: I'm aware PodHopper. Haven't forgotten the question. Will ask Calum later.
(02/07 14:01:20) Korov'ev: Suggestion: if you have a question, use /askquestion so Pod can make a list
(02/07 14:01:49) Calum Traveler: the last update to MOULa was quite ready for a while, but took forever to get going because the deployment tools needed rebuilding
(02/07 14:02:30) rarified: The new client does have a dedicated testing shard which is still closed off until I can verify it is as functional as alpha.
(02/07 14:02:36) Calum Traveler: im hoping now that that has settled down, rarified and I can look into getting all of that going
(02/07 14:02:45) Calum Traveler: there was a checklist we were about to go down before the tool rebuild kicked up
(02/07 14:03:01) Calum Traveler: we need to pick that back up and make sure everything got in order.
(02/07 14:03:09) rarified: Yes. I have a **big** scroll back buffer on that.
(02/07 14:03:15) Calum Traveler: dont want to offer folks a shard where we stupidly forgot to update, idk, the KI Python or something
(02/07 14:03:38) PodHopper: a question from Wyrm if anyone is working on a mobile version of Moula?
(02/07 14:03:45) Calum Traveler: Mobile? Not as far as im aware.
(02/07 14:03:51) rarified: No data I have
(02/07 14:03:56) Calum Traveler: i do believe it runs fairly well on Steam Deck, from what ive heard
(02/07 14:04:01) Calum Traveler: but i dont have one so i cant verify
(02/07 14:04:07) Darryl Pogue: There have been some experiments at porting to iOS and visionOS, but nothing concrete
(02/07 14:04:11) ZTenski: You can run it on mobile using winlator, at least on android
(02/07 14:04:24) Prad: Steam Deck may still use Proton, a special version of wine …
(02/07 14:04:27) ZTenski: I do that regularly, when I'm on the bus or whatever. It's functional.
(02/07 14:04:28) Calum Traveler: okay, its after two, for the sake of everyone, ONE LAST QUESTION
(02/07 14:04:28) rarified: I can run it on my PC via a remote desktop on my phone/iPad. 😛
(02/07 14:04:36) Darryl Pogue: Distributing through the AppStore would be close to impossible

If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(01/03 13:19:51) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.

(01/03 13:21:40) Korov'ev: I bring you a quick update on the Fan Age Expeditions, held on the Deep Island and the Open Cave shards.
(01/03 13:21:49) Korov'ev: We skipped last weekend, since it was the middle of the holidays 😉
(01/03 13:21:59) Korov'ev: The last expedition was in the Open Cave, so tomorrow we'll be in Deep Island.
(01/03 13:22:13) Korov'ev: Now, as the year just started, I'm thinking we could do a mostly playtime expedition, kicking it off with a door run 🙂
(01/03 13:22:30) Korov'ev: After that, we could go back to a couple of large ages we've already visited in 2025, like Pre-Swaltu0 or Janga; we'll decide at that time.
(01/03 13:22:43) Korov'ev: We may even try getting to the bugged ages, like Box Age or Eder Taygahn. We'll see!
(01/03 13:23:00) Korov'ev: As usual, every other week we'll be in the Open Cave; last time we explored the many dimensions of… the City of Dimensions.
(01/03 13:23:21) Korov'ev: We are now in Fan Age territory, so on the 11th we'll visit the first ages that made it on MOULa – although not the first to appear on TOC! We'll visit those soon.
(01/03 13:23:34) ScottMiller: I wish the hell I could get Deep Island to work!
(01/03 13:23:36) Korov'ev: And that's all I got! Any questions?

(01/03 13:25:15) Emor D'ni Lap applauds the RFD team
(01/03 13:25:18) AlanDJ: I'm going to go on a bit longer than everyone has before me, so if I start boring you, just throw things 🙂
(01/03 13:25:29) Mevvah starts to laugh
(01/03 13:25:33) AlanDJ: First a brief introduction as it's been a very long time since anyone from Radio Free D'ni addressed the AGM.
(01/03 13:25:34) *Jodok* shakes his head
(01/03 13:25:45) Mevvah: or kick them at you?
(01/03 13:25:49) AlanDJ: Radio Free D'ni is a music channel that broadcasts on an internet radio link every Sunday evening from 12:30 KI to 15:30 KI, with a main show, where we talk to you, from 13 KI to 15 KI.
(01/03 13:26:01) Claidi Song throws a nicely formed soft snowball lol
(01/03 13:26:12) AlanDJ: Each week we present a show with a theme, which might be a particular artist, or a genre, or telling a story.
(01/03 13:26:19) IwonK carefully throws a box of fine biskies
(01/03 13:26:27) AlanDJ: The shows are put together by our core team of five presenters with contributions from ohter listeners both inside and outside the cavern.
(01/03 13:26:41) AlanDJ: Other listers too…
(01/03 13:26:53) AlanDJ: So now I'd like to tell you about the upcoming Radio Free D'ni schedule.
(01/03 13:27:05) AlanDJ: We have a Remastered show about Jazz Fusion keyboard player Chick Corea tomorrow. Remastered shows are shows that were first broadcast five or so years ago which have been updated for the present day.
(01/03 13:27:25) AlanDJ: Then the Sunday after will be our regular annual look at musicians who left us in the year gone by, imaginatively titled "Lost in 2025" for this year.
(01/03 13:27:44) AlanDJ: On 18th January we have La Musique Tourne – a look at French Progressive Rock in the Seventies.
(01/03 13:28:08) AlanDJ: Secondly, I'd like to thank everyone who listened to the story show I did on Midwinter's Day – we had lots of people in the cavern and a peak of 22 listener connections,
(01/03 13:28:22) AlanDJ: which is a good number for us these days, especially for a holiday weekend just before Christmas when many will have been travelling.
(01/03 13:28:25) jtrigg: R.I. P Ozzie
(01/03 13:28:41) AlanDJ: For links to Radio Free D'ni, use urutunes or go to our website, radiofreedni.org
(01/03 13:29:06) AlanDJ: While I did enjoy putting the story show together and telling the story, I'm not sure what to do for next year.
(01/03 13:29:19) AlanDJ: So far the only story that occurs to me is John Masefield's The Box of Delights, which I'll have to read again :)Suggestions will welcome.
(01/03 13:29:39) AlanDJ: will be welcome, too…
(01/03 13:30:00) AlanDJ: Lastly and slightly cheekily I did enjoy the actual presentation of the show, which for the first time included background music behind some of the narration.
(01/03 13:30:14) AlanDJ: Yes, that was deliberate 🙂
(01/03 13:30:19) IwonK: ;]
(01/03 13:30:21) Mevvah: well done on that, Alan
(01/03 13:30:28) AlanDJ: If you'd like me to do more, please let me know – we could perhaps doe a midsummer story. I'd not like to promise one every week though as they do take a lot of preparation.
(01/03 13:30:43) AlanDJ: Perhaps one per quarter? Let me know what you think, including if you'd rather I didn't.
(01/03 13:30:46) Ereshkigal: Midsummer would be cool!
(01/03 13:31:00) ShilohOBrien: One each quarter would be cool!
(01/03 13:31:00) AlanDJ: I know that Ereshkigal has the Ancient Stories covered, and I'd not want to step on her toes.
(01/03 13:31:11) Ereshkigal: Don't worry Alan!
(01/03 13:31:17) Mevvah: A Midsummer Night's Dream isn't ancient. ::smirk::
(01/03 13:31:26) AlanDJ: So, I'll see what I can come up with 🙂
(01/03 13:31:26) Ereshkigal: There are so many ancient stories, you'll never get in my way 🙂
(01/03 13:31:57) AlanDJ: Mevvah, I think Bill Wagstick was retelling an older story 🙂
(01/03 13:32:18) AlanDJ: Thanks for your attention, and are there any questions, please?
(01/03 13:32:30) PodHopper: None in queue
(01/03 13:32:48) AlanDJ bows

(01/03 13:34:13) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(01/03 13:34:22) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student's schedule
(01/03 13:34:35) shokhootahn Rehn: (there already is a student scheduled for the Friday night classes)
(01/03 13:34:48) shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r'Tayrtahn.
(01/03 13:35:11) shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(01/03 13:35:19) shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only. There are no weekend classes available.
(01/03 13:35:28) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(01/03 13:35:40) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(01/03 13:35:59) shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news…
(01/03 13:36:07) shokhootahn Rehn: Another student has started taking the classes last month!
(01/03 13:36:19) *Jodok* claps his hands
(01/03 13:36:24) PodHopper cheers
(01/03 13:36:28) Ereshkigal cheers

(01/03 13:36:29) Claidi Song claps her hands
(01/03 13:36:40) Mevvah claps her hands
(01/03 13:36:43) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(01/03 13:36:47) Thumbs up from AlanDJ
(01/03 13:36:53) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager…
(01/03 13:37:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(01/03 13:37:19) Korov'ev: one at a time, until we'll all speak D'ni here!
(01/03 13:37:22) PodHopper: None in queue
(01/03 13:37:25) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(01/03 13:37:31) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(01/03 13:37:46) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will tell the fifth and final story (#74 of 104) from the game of Riven! Starting next week (and for the following eight weeks) we will tell the story from the novel, "Myst: The Book of D'ni."
(01/03 13:38:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(01/03 13:38:20) shokhootahn Rehn: There will be no story on Saturday, the 17th, due to family obligations.
(01/03 13:38:35) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(01/03 13:39:04) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is "I'm a bot, do not message". Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(01/03 13:39:41) shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I am also providing caption translations into several languages: French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. Since I don't speak any of those languages, it will be up to my viewers to tell me how well that is working out. 🙂
(01/03 13:39:52) shokhootahn Rehn: Let me know if you would like to see any additional translations.
(01/03 13:40:05) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(01/03 13:40:12) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(01/03 13:40:30) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(01/03 13:40:50) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(01/03 13:40:58) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(01/03 13:41:05) ScottMiller: It takes guts to take a D'ni language class! They aren't easy (I know)!\
(01/03 13:41:15) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(01/03 13:41:51) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(01/03 13:41:59) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(01/03 13:42:12) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(01/03 13:42:35) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(01/03 13:42:40) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(01/03 13:47:39) jtrigg: It's still 18 hours by air for me
(01/03 13:47:42) ScottMiller: or at least San Diego…
(01/03 13:47:42) Isa =^.^=: happy new year Calum 🙂
(01/03 13:47:59) Mevvah: revamped?
(01/03 13:48:02) jtrigg: what was the revision to Chiso?
(01/03 13:48:06) *Jodok*: Happy ne year calum 😀
(01/03 13:48:08) Calum Traveler: yes, Chiso Preniv needed to be completely rebuilt.
(01/03 13:48:17) Calum Traveler: we lost the build file for it, due to reasons I wont get into here,
(01/03 13:48:18) Mevvah: 😮
(01/03 13:48:29) Calum Traveler: and so I had to import from the last successful build and rebuild the age's blend file
(01/03 13:48:29) Claidi Song: Happy New Year 2026 to Everyone!!!
(01/03 13:48:43) Ereshkigal: Chiso still looks amazing every Saturday I go there 🙂
(01/03 13:48:56) Calum Traveler: its because of this rebuild that we had some minor hiccups with getting Sameehn's release not being in Chiso originally,
(01/03 13:49:01) ShilohOBrien: And for his next trick…
(01/03 13:49:04) *Jodok*: Love the new door animation
(01/03 13:49:10) AlanDJ: Understood, Calum, and well done.
(01/03 13:49:17) Calum Traveler: but, im happy to say
(01/03 13:49:18) jtrigg: I'm waiting to be able to open the back door
(01/03 13:49:23) Calum Traveler: Sameehn is NOW on the Book Ring~!
(01/03 13:49:28) Mevvah: same jt….
(01/03 13:49:34) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(01/03 13:49:37) Calum Traveler: and Trebivdil has ben moved to the shelf, next to Serene
(01/03 13:49:39) Mevvah claps her hands
(01/03 13:49:39) Ereshkigal: I still have to check out Sameehn
(01/03 13:49:45) RedUhuru claps his hands
(01/03 13:49:48) Dreamer3: Love the new Chiso additions.
(01/03 13:49:50) Calum Traveler: on that note, ive received some feedback that there was some issues with finding the books on the shelves,
(01/03 13:49:59) Mevvah: Trebivdil? I think that's a ndw one on me.
(01/03 13:50:13) Calum Traveler: i have some suggestions and ideas on how to remedy that, and ill be testing new signage on the Minkatas
(01/03 13:50:16) Thumbs up from Emor D'ni Lap
(01/03 13:50:22) Calum Traveler: Trebivdil was released after Serene, one of the first ages released,
(01/03 13:50:29) Calum Traveler: via Chiso, atleast
(01/03 13:50:40) ShilohOBrien: It's the minecraft looking one.
(01/03 13:50:49) IwonK: Mystcraft ;]
(01/03 13:50:54) Calum Traveler: *ahhem*
(01/03 13:51:04) AlanDJ: wince
(01/03 13:51:14) Calum Traveler: additionally to this update, we now have the PREAFTER volumes,
(01/03 13:51:27) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(01/03 13:51:30) Calum Traveler: they have been added to the shelf with the Heritage Docs, and the Activity In The Cavern Books
(01/03 13:51:32) Mevvah claps her hands
(01/03 13:51:51) Thumbs up from AlanDJ
(01/03 13:51:54) caver1: Many thanks to age builders!
(01/03 13:51:56) Calum Traveler: this shelf will be, going forwards, called the "Explorer Retrospective" Shelf,
(01/03 13:52:15) Calum Traveler: it is on this shelf that volumes about our history, written from explorer perspectives, will be stored going forwards,
(01/03 13:52:31) Calum Traveler: on the opposite side of the entrance, I have plans for pure historical content to be added
(01/03 13:52:33) Thumbs up from Ereshkigal
(01/03 13:52:46) Calum Traveler: that is to say, archived forum posts from the DRC Forums, as well as our D'ni Explorer forums,
(01/03 13:52:58) Calum Traveler: i plan to also add chatlogs from the DRC era as well as our current Era of work,
(01/03 13:53:40) Calum Traveler: this is all in an effort to preserve not just the history of the cavern as we saw it, but as in as pristine of a condition as it originally was recorded,
(01/03 13:54:11) Dreamer3: Future generations thank you : – )
(01/03 13:54:11) AlanDJ: Lots of work, Calum
(01/03 13:54:13) Calum Traveler: it will be a bit of a work in progress, but hopefully, this will address some concerns i've heard regarding the Explorer Retrospectives not being "accurate enough"
(01/03 13:54:22) Calum Traveler: to which ill agree,
(01/03 13:54:37) Calum Traveler: the Heritage Docs, for example, were never meant to be the END ALL BE ALL of cavern history
(01/03 13:54:59) Calum Traveler: during the time I ran Heritage Night, i tried to get as many folks who were present for those events to give their perspectives on those events,
(01/03 13:55:17) Calum Traveler: it didnt work out so well as id hoped, so by trying to preserve the actual raw encounters in chatlog form, im hoping…
(01/03 13:55:18) Calum Traveler: well
(01/03 13:55:36) Calum Traveler: im hoping that it will atleast crystalize some element of the "truth" of our history here in D'ni
(01/03 13:56:07) Calum Traveler: as the dni explorer forums are easiest to back up at the present moment, those chatlogs and forum posts will be the first bunch added to Chiso Preniv, while I hunt down what i need for the DRC era
(01/03 13:56:41) Mevvah claps her hands
(01/03 13:56:45) neurovac: very good work!
(01/03 13:56:47) Mevvah: well done, Calum.
(01/03 13:56:49) Calum Traveler: finally, i did recieve a complaint that i'd removed a commentrary journal from Chiso Preniv, regarding the author of it.
(01/03 13:56:50) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(01/03 13:56:57) Calum Traveler: id like to say that its total erasure was not my intent,
(01/03 13:57:28) Calum Traveler: the chiso commentary, as well as the 'original version' of the Guild of Messengers Pub Commentary, will be added to their own shelf on the upper level of Chiso Preniv, for the sake of historical archiving,
(01/03 13:57:47) Calum Traveler: i just forgot to put the old chiso commentary up on the shelves during the last push for release ^^;;;
(01/03 13:58:06) AlanDJ says sad thumbs up
(01/03 13:58:15) Calum Traveler: im stating this simply as a historian,
(01/03 13:58:27) Calum Traveler: there are lots of people who have contributed to our cavern history in many ways
(01/03 13:58:27) shokhootahn Rehn: It happens, Calum. 🙂
(01/03 13:58:46) Calum Traveler: it's something ive been tussling with with regards to his presence in the forum posts and chatlogs,
(01/03 13:58:59) Calum Traveler: in the end, i cant erase a person's impact from history,
(01/03 13:59:17) ShilohOBrien: Nor should you.
(01/03 13:59:20) Mevvah: nor should we.
(01/03 13:59:20) Calum Traveler: the bare limit ill be doing is removing a legal real world surface name and replacing it with the known online handle.
(01/03 13:59:23) *Jodok*: Try to separate the art from the artist
(01/03 13:59:27) AlanDJ says positive thumbs up
(01/03 13:59:45) Mevvah: while acknowledging that not all of history is good history.
(01/03 14:00:01) Calum Traveler: not all people have affected the restoration of dni in good ways,
(01/03 14:00:04) Emor D'ni Lap: "Its disappearance was unintentional and it will return to the shelves". All that needs to be said. The jury is still out, AFAIK
(01/03 14:00:08) Calum Traveler: but not all have affected it in bda ways,
(01/03 14:00:17) Calum Traveler: yes, emor, it was an unintentional disappearance,
(01/03 14:00:26) Calum Traveler: and it will return.
(01/03 14:00:26) Emor D'ni Lap: Got it, thanks
(01/03 14:00:40) jtrigg: excreta occurs
(01/03 14:00:45) Calum Traveler: one final note about chiso,
(01/03 14:00:57) Calum Traveler: the doorway in the basement
(01/03 14:01:03) Calum Traveler: i will not be opening those doors.
(01/03 14:01:12) Mevvah is sad
(01/03 14:01:19) Calum Traveler: i do not have any of the design plans for what was to go beyond them
(01/03 14:01:20) *Jodok* is sad
(01/03 14:01:33) Dreamer3: Also, it's dangerous out there.
(01/03 14:01:33) Calum Traveler: i do not have any of the actual build files, otherwise my life this last year would have been easier.
(01/03 14:01:40) Emor D'ni Lap: but…at this point, ANYTHING can go behind those doors
(01/03 14:01:52) Calum Traveler: for the present build, I have put *something* behind the doors,
(01/03 14:02:00) Calum Traveler: but please do not treat it as a canonical 'this is whats always there'
(01/03 14:02:11) Calum Traveler: some day, someone may be inclined to open those doors and create that path.
(01/03 14:02:14) Mevvah: of course. Understood
(01/03 14:02:14) rarified: Call Heraldo Rivera.
(01/03 14:02:15) Dreamer3: Schordinger's doors.
(01/03 14:02:16) AlanDJ: Understood. Sigh. The Internet, for better or worse, is now part of Real Life and subject to legal issues. Would that it were not.
(01/03 14:02:22) Calum Traveler: but that will not be me.
(01/03 14:02:28) Dreamer3: Schrodinger . . .
(01/03 14:02:28) Mevvah: exactly dreamer
(01/03 14:02:42) Calum Traveler: for anyone inclined to explore with bot techniques,
(01/03 14:02:42) ShilohOBrien: You have enough on your plate, Calum.
(01/03 14:02:48) Diranda: Storage. Empty storage.
(01/03 14:02:48) Calum Traveler: i did leave a poem in there for folks to find.
(01/03 14:03:00) rarified: ^Geraldo Rivera.
(01/03 14:03:01) Calum Traveler: it might be a bit tricky to see in the dark tho
(01/03 14:03:10) Diranda: heee
(01/03 14:03:16) Calum Traveler: moving on from Chiso to lighter things, despite being ostensibly darker…
(01/03 14:03:16) Kayara: Something about a cake?
(01/03 14:03:18) Calum Traveler: DESCENT
(01/03 14:03:26) IwonK: the cake is a lie…
(01/03 14:03:28) Ereshkigal: Chiso is, in the end, an archaeological site; and many archaeological sites have riddles that remain unsolved
(01/03 14:03:30) Calum Traveler: PHASE 1 is now what id call "Feature Locked" in terms of walkable content.
(01/03 14:03:35) Diranda claps her hands
(01/03 14:03:43) Calum Traveler: that is, from the Caldera down to the river channel.
(01/03 14:03:57) Calum Traveler: i have a rough sketch of what Phase 2 will be, but im not working on that until phase 1 is out the door
(01/03 14:04:24) Calum Traveler: i just this morning pushed the first build of 2026 to minkata alpha,
(01/03 14:04:25) rarified: Do you have any help with the future phasess yet?
(01/03 14:04:51) Calum Traveler: ill be continuing to work with ametist, tiki, ehren, tweek (as he's available), and semjay and maurus with phase 2,
(01/03 14:05:20) Calum Traveler: theres still a few more months of hard polish work for descent before it's ready for MOULa,
(01/03 14:05:30) AlanDJ: Good news
(01/03 14:05:36) *Jodok* cheers
(01/03 14:05:38) Calum Traveler: but im confident the physical layout is intact for phase 1,
(01/03 14:05:41) Mevvah claps her hands
(01/03 14:05:53) Calum Traveler: and all intended features for phase 1 have been planned for, and accounted for
(01/03 14:06:03) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(01/03 14:06:04) Calum Traveler: i do have a few moving parts i need to wait for inorder to fully lock dwn its features, but
(01/03 14:06:18) Calum Traveler: phase 1 is in the final stretches.
(01/03 14:06:35) Calum Traveler: at this point, it is purely making sure things work as expected in a multiplayer environment,
(01/03 14:06:46) Calum Traveler: plus, hammering out textures, collisions, sounds, etc.
(01/03 14:06:47) Claidi Song: It is looking great, Cal!
(01/03 14:06:52) rarified hands Calum Traveler a bottle of Monster Energy and a couple of aspirin.
(01/03 14:06:57) Calum Traveler smiles in thanks
(01/03 14:07:02) IwonK has cookies for that
(01/03 14:07:06) PodHopper: 🙂
(01/03 14:07:11) Babbeltje.40 claps her hands
(01/03 14:07:37) AlanDJ says and there is always door rum
(01/03 14:07:45) ShilohOBrien: Gotta dip early. Will catch the rest on the log.
(01/03 14:07:48) Calum Traveler: im also hopeful that ill be able to get pod12 and reischu apartment hammered out this year,
(01/03 14:07:51) Dreamer3 looks forward to reenacting the pilgramage of Atrus.
(01/03 14:07:53) Calum Traveler: but no promises just yet
(01/03 14:07:54) ScottMiller claps his hands
(01/03 14:08:00) Calum Traveler: on that note, ill leave it here
(01/03 14:08:06) Ereshkigal cheers

(01/03 14:08:14) rarified claps his hands
(01/03 14:08:15) *Jodok*: HOPE (TM)
(01/03 14:08:16) Mevvah: well done, Calum.
(01/03 14:08:19) IwonK: 2h down the stairs, dreamer 😉
(01/03 14:08:22) RedUhuru: Naybree telescopes – how many more day?
(01/03 14:08:24) RedUhuru: days
(01/03 14:08:28) uru348 claps his hands
(01/03 14:08:30) RedUhuru: I love telescopes 🙂
(01/03 14:08:35) Kayara claps her hands
(01/03 14:08:35) Calum Traveler: naybree telescopes, im waiting on chogon to install the hotfix
(01/03 14:08:42) RedUhuru: ohhhhhhhh
(01/03 14:08:43) Calum Traveler: ive finished it and pushed the build through minkatas,
(01/03 14:08:54) Calum Traveler: i believe chogon is still away from computer after the holidays
(01/03 14:08:56) Mevvah: [;ural?
(01/03 14:09:04) Mevvah: Naybree telescopeS?
(01/03 14:09:14) RedUhuru: Happy I looked through them today then, thanks Cal.
(01/03 14:09:14) Calum Traveler: i fixed the wayward SDL that was NOT meant to go live at all
(01/03 14:09:20) Dreamer3: Is Naybree in any danger from the meteors?
(01/03 14:09:25) Calum Traveler: i had plans for a meteor impact event
(01/03 14:09:29) Calum Traveler: but i couldnt get it to work
(01/03 14:09:32) Mevvah: oh dear
(01/03 14:09:36) Calum Traveler: needless to say i didnt scrap the controls for it well enough
(01/03 14:09:48) RedUhuru: lovely setup though
(01/03 14:09:49) Calum Traveler: and multiple someones found a trigger i thought was
(01/03 14:09:50) Calum Traveler: well
(01/03 14:09:52) Calum Traveler: Gone.
(01/03 14:09:53) ScottMiller: what telescopes? i only know of one…
(01/03 14:09:59) Mevvah: same
(01/03 14:10:01) Dreamer3: You can still birdwatch with them
(01/03 14:10:02) Calum Traveler: the telescopes and the stage on the beach are the intended feature of naybree's update,
(01/03 14:10:05) AlanDJ: Telescope$ are like Microsoft minutes – somewhat flexible
(01/03 14:10:07) Calum Traveler: the crater impact was not.
(01/03 14:10:16) RedUhuru: Ohhh
(01/03 14:10:37) uru348: The "elephant in th garden"
(01/03 14:10:41) Calum Traveler: in the end, its an idea i might reuse someday somewhere else, but…
(01/03 14:10:42) Calum Traveler: yeah.
(01/03 14:10:42) PodHopper recommends wearingf a hard hat in Naybree
(01/03 14:10:44) Mevvah: what I am most curious abou tin Naybree is the *underground* whatever-the-heck. (architecture geek evil smile)
(01/03 14:10:46) RedUhuru: I love my Naybree therapeutic sessions.
(01/03 14:10:47) Calum Traveler: i scrapped that idea in naybree.
(01/03 14:10:55) Calum Traveler: no meteor impact
(01/03 14:11:09) Calum Traveler: meteor shower should be happening any day one once we get the hotfix in and i can tell chogon to flip the switch
(01/03 14:11:09) PodHopper: pfew! 😀
(01/03 14:11:20) Calum Traveler: any day now*
(01/03 14:11:26) AlanDJ: I have to say that the beach in Naybree is a most excellent place to chill 🙂
(01/03 14:11:31) Mevvah: pretty! Much better than destruction.
(01/03 14:11:40) Mevvah: agree with Alan
(01/03 14:11:47) RedUhuru: Alan, to find back your soul even.
(01/03 14:11:48) IwonK: that's why I don't sing, Mevvah 😀
(01/03 14:11:51) Calum Traveler: anyways,
(01/03 14:11:58) Calum Traveler: fix is inbound sooner than later,
(01/03 14:12:13) Calum Traveler: last question?

(12/06 13:13:09) Claidi Song: ~~~ Radio Free D’ni Christmas Story ~~~
(12/06 13:13:15) *Jodok* claps his hands
(12/06 13:13:15) Claidi Song: Alan had a RL high-priority conflict occur. He sent his announce as follows:
(12/06 13:13:25) Claidi Song: “There will be an extra Radio Free D’ni show over the Christmas holiday, breaking our usual two-week hiatus. Last year I – Alan, that is – told you the story of A Christmas Carol with bits of music added in. That was very satisfying all round, and so I (Alan) will bring you another Christmas story, told in a compressed form and with suitably musical interludes.”
(12/06 13:13:53) Claidi Song: “This year I have chosen a personal favourite, Susan Cooper’s The Dark Is Rising, a coming-of-age story that spans the Twelve Days of Christmas and is rooted in the British countryside where Susan Cooper grew up. Many elements of mythology, legend and folklore are incorporated and the novel has won prizes as well as a very large fan following.”
(12/06 13:14:04) ShilohOBrien: Ooooo!
(12/06 13:14:25) Claidi Song: “I hope you can join me (Alan) on Sunday December 21st – Midwinter’s Day – at 13 KI (8pm UK time, 9pm Central European Time) for a Radio Free D’ni Christmas Story.”

(12/06 13:15:19) Rigil Kent claps his hands
(12/06 13:15:26) Ereshkigal cheers
(12/06 13:15:26) Claidi Song claps her hands
(12/06 13:15:29) Prad: First of all – for everyone who wants to become a member of the choir, we have two recommendations for participation:
(12/06 13:15:39) Prad: 1.) You need to be able to sing (to be able to carry a tune, to be exact). I trust on your judgement and people you know well for that – we don’t do a qualifying examination atm.
(12/06 13:15:50) Prad: 2.) You don’t need to be able to read a musical sheet, but you need to be able to sing along a demo voice we provide for each voice of the choir.
(12/06 13:16:00) Prad: 3.) You need something to record music with, like usually microphone + headphone, some PC/Laptop with a soundcard and some recording program (there’s a bunch of freeware which suffices our purposes)
(12/06 13:16:16) Prad: Next about our progress: Since last week of october and during november Babbeltje and I have put together a program to record of 3 christmas songs for december, ‘We wish you a merry christmas’, ‘Tollite Hostias’ from the christmas oratorio of Camille Saint-Saens and ‘Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer’.
(12/06 13:16:33) Prad: The exercising and tracks of ‘We wish you a merry christmas’ and ‘Tollite Hostias’ together with their musical scores (for those who can make use of them – there are always some) are on Babbeltje’s Discord Server since beginning of November, and I have put the recording tracks for ‘Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer’ and the musical on the same Discord Server at the beginning of December.
(12/06 13:16:53) Prad: For recording these songs we have planned two weeks since start of december until december 15th – a short time, I know – but for two reasons it will be the deadline for sending in recordings:
(12/06 13:17:08) Prad: 1.) We plan to include it in the christmas country special of Eternal Seeker on thursday the 25th which he has tmk. generously reserved us a spot where we could present our christmas songs (and probably what else we have recorded so far).
(12/06 13:17:27) Prad: 2.) I need a bit of time to mix it between the deadline and the presentation on the event
(12/06 13:17:37) Prad: So the official recording frame has already begun – I’ll take anything from recordings based on exercising tracks to recordings based on recording tracks for the final mix should we see time running out.
(12/06 13:18:20) Prad: After our two months sabbatical august and september we have gotten quite few feedback from people interested in the MOULa Choir, so I beg you all who have already provided voice recordings for ‘Dona Nobis Pacem’ and ‘All Through The Night’, who entered the choir afterwards and who are interested in getting this MOULa Choir project done,
(12/06 13:18:36) Prad: to record and send in your voices (WITHOUT BACKING – so mute the backing track in your software before exporting to mp3 to give me your voices only) until december 15th.
(12/06 13:18:38) Ereshkigal: I had an alto voice once, but I haven’t sung in 20 years 😀
(12/06 13:18:46) Prad: Your shared efforts will decide if we can deliver a MOULa Choir Christmas Mix to the country evening event on december 25th.
(12/06 13:18:57) Prad: Last but not least: Stay healthy (nobody can sing with a strong cold, of course).
(12/06 13:19:04) Prad: Short reminder on the request of Jodok:
(12/06 13:19:09) *Jodok* claps his hands
(12/06 13:19:13) Prad: On The Open Cave we have some competitive games which are designed for two or more players, my Ayoheek Event each Monday at 14 KI time in the Ayohikers Hood there, and the two new games Tic-Tac-Toc (Tic-Tac-Toe on The Open Cave) and Connect Four in City of Dimensions age – the TOC admin Filtik has put much time and energy into building, implementing and getting tested these new games.
(12/06 13:19:16) Claidi Song: I think I sound best with a cold lol
(12/06 13:19:16) IwonK: I have a destructive voice, I haven’t sung for the sake of humanity 😉
(12/06 13:19:22) skyisblu: lol
(12/06 13:19:24) Prad: We would encourage you to come to The Open Cave and play these games when you have time and are in the mood – they’re all very entertaining.
(12/06 13:19:35) Prad needs a moment to breathe!
(12/06 13:19:39) Verna: Will it be available elsewhere to hear, for those who can’t attend country evening?
(12/06 13:19:44) Prad: Thats’s all.

(12/06 13:23:19) Augur: As always, EVERYONE is welcome at our book club meetings! By no means do you have to read every selection and make it to every meeting to join us. If only once a year something is picked that piques your interest, by all means drop in just for that one meeting.
(12/06 13:23:51) Augur: I am very much looking forward to getting to discuss one of my favorite books of all time with other Myst fans!
(12/06 13:24:06) Augur: I hope you all have safe travels and good company this holiday season and I will see you in the new year!

(12/06 13:25:47) Brooketh: We are a friendly, social group of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less “competitive” than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don’t know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(12/06 13:26:04) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat; you don’t need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.We use a combination of voice and text chat; you don’t need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.

(12/06 13:27:48) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.
(12/06 13:27:55) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(12/06 13:28:04) shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes available on weekday evenings Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, starting at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KI time, depending on the student’s schedule.
(12/06 13:28:34) shokhootahn Rehn: There are daytime openings on Monday through Friday, starting at either 10:00 KI time, 11:00 KI time, or 12:00 KI time, again, depending on the student’s schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time, KI mail me at KI# 80428, or on Discord at r’Tayrtahn
(12/06 13:28:55) shokhootahn Rehn: (Discord is best)
(12/06 13:29:05) shokhootahn Rehn: All classes are Monday through Friday, only. There are no weekend classes available.
(12/06 13:29:16) shokhootahn Rehn: If you are going to contact me by KI-mail, please remember to include your KI #.
(12/06 13:29:27) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(12/06 13:29:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news…
(12/06 13:29:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Another student has started taking the classes last month!

(12/06 13:30:08) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(12/06 13:30:30) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager…
(12/06 13:30:41) shokhootahn Rehn: As I’ve said, before, one of my former students, Yutiel, is listed on that imager. I have refrained from posting pellets to maintain her name at the top as a form of memorial. It’s why I haven’t posted pellet points above 168345: it was to keep her name at the top of the list.
(12/06 13:30:54) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(12/06 13:31:15) Claidi Song: No questions in the queue.
(12/06 13:31:21) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(12/06 13:31:22) ShilohOBrien claps her hands
(12/06 13:31:28) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.
(12/06 13:31:45) shokhootahn Rehn: Starting today, we will begin the story #70 (of 104) which is from the game of Riven!
(12/06 13:32:00) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at restoration.
(12/06 13:32:06) Ereshkigal cheers
(12/06 13:32:13) shokhootahn Rehn: Though this month has the holiday of Christmas, it will not affect either Story Night.
(12/06 13:32:28) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D’ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D’ni!
(12/06 13:32:52) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is “I’m a bot, do not message”. Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉 Also, please do NOT add him as a buddy. He has no special abilities and is there only to record Story Night.
(12/06 13:33:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Unfortunately, I am also updating the stories from the novels (adding more content from the books) and games so I haven’t had time to upload stories in a while and probably won’t have time for a few more months.
(12/06 13:33:57) shokhootahn Rehn: I have a bit of a backlog to work through!
(12/06 13:34:23) Ereshkigal: What will happen after Story # 104?
(12/06 13:34:28) shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I am also providing caption translations into several languages: French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. Since I don’t speak any of those languages, it will be up to my viewers to tell me how well that is working out. 🙂
(12/06 13:34:35) shokhootahn Rehn: Let me know if you would like to see any additional translations
(12/06 13:34:54) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.
(12/06 13:34:54) Prad: backlog … sounds like wood chopping in the garden …
(12/06 13:35:04) shokhootahn Rehn: lol
(12/06 13:35:12) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood’s fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(12/06 13:35:19) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood’s fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(12/06 13:35:27) ShilohOBrien: Backlog…also a euphamism for constipation.
(12/06 13:35:40) IndigoMoon: lol
(12/06 13:35:48) philipgr: lol

(12/06 13:36:08) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately (thanks to Claidi’s organized handling of the AGM — Thanks Cladi!), it’s been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. 🙂
(12/06 13:36:12) Claidi Song cringes
(12/06 13:36:26) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(12/06 13:36:34) ShilohOBrien grins…yes, most doctors have this kind of humor.
(12/06 13:36:36) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(12/06 13:36:46) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(12/06 13:36:51) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(12/06 13:37:03) shokhootahn Rehn: r’Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r’T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he’ll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recents folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. 🙂
(12/06 13:37:32) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(12/06 13:37:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(12/06 13:37:36) Claidi Song: I didn’t see the answer to What happens after #104?
(12/06 13:37:58) Calum Traveler: doesnt story night loop back around to the beginning again once its done?
(12/06 13:37:59) shokhootahn Rehn: Oh! The cycle begins again
(12/06 13:38:06) Prad: that was a question about a question

(12/06 13:45:53) rarified: Descent is **BIG**
(12/06 13:45:56) ShilohOBrien: you Age developers, If I manage to get to a Mysterium, I’m buying you drinks!
(12/06 13:45:56) Calum Traveler: yes it is,
(12/06 13:46:15) Calum Traveler: and puzzle planning is just as important as physical layout planning…
(12/06 13:46:36) Claidi Song: Yes, it is!
(12/06 13:46:36) Calum Traveler: at the moment on alpha i have some WIP stuff with the mines and the river camp area in place,
(12/06 13:46:40) Prad: their drinks are fully lit and multitextured
(12/06 13:46:47) Calum Traveler: i dont expect that stuff to be ready in the full release
(12/06 13:46:51) ShilohOBrien: and bug free!
(12/06 13:46:54) Thumbs up from IndigoMoon
(12/06 13:46:58) Calum Traveler: but I do want most of it to be in place so stuff doesnt just ‘randomly appear one update’
(12/06 13:47:07) Calum Traveler: atleast visually
(12/06 13:47:13) Calum Traveler: functionality can wait until later lol
(12/06 13:47:37) Calum Traveler: but if we’re lucky, i might be able to chop Descent’s phase status down a little
(12/06 13:47:44) Calum Traveler: we want this to go right and well,
(12/06 13:47:56) Calum Traveler: and to that end, we’re trying to make sure that the interactions work as well as they absolutely can.
(12/06 13:48:01) BIG thumbs up from *Jodok*
(12/06 13:48:04) Calum Traveler: we’ve had folks doing single player testing so far,
(12/06 13:48:18) Calum Traveler: but if folks want to gather neighbors in their minkata alpha and visit their hood descent
(12/06 13:48:24) Calum Traveler: please do poke around in pairs or groups.
(12/06 13:48:38) Calum Traveler: co-op always has unique challenges to it that single player testers can miss
(12/06 13:48:49) Calum Traveler: such as music cues firing off to the entire age even though you set them to be Local Only :V
(12/06 13:49:07) Calum Traveler: there are also some new music tracks in testing as well,
(12/06 13:49:15) Calum Traveler: provided by the talented Semjay
(12/06 13:49:17) Claidi Song: \Will the Descent include music fro Myst V? shokhootahn Rehn
(12/06 13:49:29) Claidi Song: *form
(12/06 13:49:29) ShilohOBrien: All hail, Semjay!
(12/06 13:49:31) Claidi Song: *from
(12/06 13:49:38) Calum Traveler: the only Myst V track that we have currently is the same music track that plays in Descent right now.
(12/06 13:49:48) Calum Traveler: because that was reused from URU descent in Myst V
(12/06 13:49:50) shokhootahn Rehn nods his head
(12/06 13:50:09) Calum Traveler: the elevator music tracks are re-vamps of old DIRT DEMO tracks,
(12/06 13:50:15) Calum Traveler: punchup work done by Maurus,
(12/06 13:50:18) Claidi Song: \Is Direbo still in the plans? Koro
(12/06 13:50:28) Calum Traveler: Direbo is… complicated.
(12/06 13:50:51) Calum Traveler: i know one person was working on it, but then he vanished. someone else picked up the work to start fresh, then Surface Life Complications cropped up
(12/06 13:51:05) Calum Traveler: and he hasnt been around to do stuff we’d planned to colab with on descent
(12/06 13:51:14) Calum Traveler: if Direbo happens, it’ll happen.
(12/06 13:51:18) IndigoMoon: bummer
(12/06 13:51:18) Calum Traveler: but i cant promise it one way or another.
(12/06 13:51:26) rarified: Customary short answer: “It’s complicated ™”
(12/06 13:51:30) shokhootahn Rehn: 🙁
(12/06 13:51:44) PodHopper: Soon (TM)
(12/06 13:52:03) ShilohOBrien: Cautious optimism (TM)
(12/06 13:52:07) Calum Traveler: i am planning for a garden book toggle with a direbo variable name for Kirel Rebuild
(12/06 13:52:10) Calum Traveler: but that’s Cautious Optimism.
(12/06 13:52:24) Claidi Song starts to laugh
(12/06 13:52:33) IndigoMoon: 🙂
(12/06 13:52:37) Calum Traveler: one last question?
(12/06 13:52:40) rarified: ™

(12/06 13:53:00) ural: fahners house??
(12/06 13:53:04) philipgr: Cautious Optimism sounds like a Roman general
(12/06 13:53:11) Claidi Song: *queue

(12/06 13:53:17) Calum Traveler: fenihr?

(12/06 13:53:25) ural: yes
(12/06 13:53:27) Calum Traveler: uh, i cant speak to that one,
(12/06 13:53:37) Claidi Song: Cautious Optimism is my favorite t-shirt in the closet
(12/06 13:53:38) Calum Traveler: see aforementioned second person working on Direbo issues.

(12/06 14:01:16) RedUhuru waves goodbye
