OOC Thread and Chatroom

[Ibn-Khaldun]

You can still try.

I better wait and see what will happen to Hypatios

Wouldn't want to see Efstathios' head on a pike.. yet

[TinCow]

Just a note that the internet here seems to have been repaired faster than usual, though with no guarantees of remaining that way. I'm still pretty busy, but I expect to be able to get the orders out to OK this evening my time. The game can move on once he has posted the alterations, which will be pretty simple for this turn.

[ULC]

Is OK ever going to appoint the Dean?

[Ramses II CP]

I know that perfectly well. Like i said before, im willing to flip the coin with my avatar if needs to be. In some point in this game we will start killing each others avatars in this game and i have no problem with my avatar dying at any point. I really much doubt that a noble would listen to the language and actions without reaction if he was in my characters shoes.

Don't mind flipping a coin with Vissa either, but a chivalry character can't exactly go attacking someone just because they said something contemtible. A different sort now...

That's the OOC equivilent to the IC invitation handed right out on a silver platter. Won't get any more obvious.

[OverKnight]

Dean appointed.

Grrrr, can't everyone wait until Aleksios is dead before you start fighting? I hate mediating, though I do like throwing my weight around.

I'll be doing the Crusade stuff soon.

Don't worry, when your dead, will fight over the body

[Ignoramus]

One thing I noticed. 00jebus took the garrison from Sinop with him. I'm pretty sure this is technically illegal. I don't really mind, but I just wanted to nip this in the bud.

Also, do I have the all clear from you to take the save and end turn, OK?

[OverKnight]

Yeah, feel free to move on. Just keep in mind that all those extra ships are going to drive upkeep through the roof.

[Privateerkev]

Here is Ituralde's SOT: "Garrison: To remain at 1 unit of Town Militia, 1 unit of Spear Militia, 1 unit of Armenian Cavalry, and 1 unit of Alan Light Horsemen."

So, unless Ituralde PM'd 00jebus and ok'd it, it is quite illegal.

People need to double-check the SOT's before they make moves.

[TinCow]

The extra costs for the ships and armies created for the Crusade will be reimbursed via console commands from now on. This is really only important for Ignoramus, but if the treasury seems a bit low during the Crusade, just wait for the Crusade-edited save for that turn and it will go up by an approximation of the extra upkeep to compensate.

[Privateerkev]

So the Patriarch IS paying for it!

It would have been interesting IC if he didn't.

[TinCow]

For IC purposes, no one is paying for it. The armies and fleets are volunteers who bring their own supplies or forage.

[woad&fangs]

This is the Ezekiel 25:17 I was refering to in the story thread.Ezekiel 25:17

It's much cooler than the real one.

[OverKnight]

Ah the Gospel of St. Jules.

[Privateerkev]

Say "what" again!

[Ignoramus]

My deepest condolences, Andres. Sometimes the game is just mean.

[Rowan]

Not much left of House Tagamata :(

[Andres]

My deepest condolences, Andres. Sometimes the game is just mean.

What? He rebelled? While he was on his way back home?



Why did he do that for?

[flyd]

Hmm. May I make a proposal that TC (authorizes OK to) bribe(s) him back with console money? I mean, now that we have civil wars and stuff, this sort of rebellion makes no sense. If you were to rebel against the Empire, you'd probably start a war... since you can. It makes no sense at all.

I would vote against it though I'd be peeved if it happened to Methodios...

TC has already made provisions to remove almost all loyalty reducing traits, it is up to the players to act so that their avatars remain basically loyal on pain of seeing them rebel, IMHO.

IIRC, I asked through pm to remove the Unwatched by King treat. Last time I checked, that trait was still there

[Zim]

Just checked the save, that potential adoptee is for Ioannis Kalameteros rather than Mavrozomis. Since deguerra's still out a few more days, shall we leave it to the Megas? Or maybe just have it rejected?

[Ignoramus]

Sorry about that Zim. I was sure it was Kosmas. I'd wait for TC to call concerning the adoption.

Regarding the rebellion of Savvas, I'd be against doing anything to undo it. In KotR I had Sigismund der Stolze assassinated, which I was filthy about for days. But it added to the drama of the game, and although it was really annoying to me, I soon accepted it and found another good general in Herr Hummel.

[Andres]

So, are there any avatars in the royal family available and of age

[Ituralde]

Just a general note, that I would be open and have no objections to altering any game mechanic rebellion of avatars. The game provides for enough IC ways to rebell against the Emperor and I find it adds a lot to the game if you're able to play low loyalty characters without having to fear loosing control over them.

A character death imposed by game mechanics is far easier to deal with than loosing control, if anything it should be up to the respective player if they want to enter rebel mode or not.

[Ignoramus]

Well, Isaakos and Andronikos are almost of age.

[Zim]

Kosmas adopted a character that's about 22 or so.

So, are there any avatars in the royal family available and of age

[Andres]

I'll await TC's decision on the matter. If I lose Savvas, I might chose one of those avatars suggested by Ignoramus or Zim.

I would normally agree, but this was my error in not removing the trait. Andres specifically asked me to and I forgot to kill it once it returned. His loyalty was only low due to my error and as such I cannot allow the rebellion to occur.

[_Tristan_]

Glad the Savvas' "situation" was resolved this way...

Who would we have buying us drinks out of the Senate if not for Savvas ?
