OOC Thread

[The Celtic Viking]

Yeah, what have I ever done to deserve such distrust from you, Ibn?

Alexandros Thraikikos is an Olympic victor!

What a pity Myth stopped playing, some good rping potential there...

[The Celtic Viking]

Yeah. Speaking of which, I think I'll send a PM to those who have disappeared since the first council to see what's what.

Some sort of Activity thread might be an idea, if people are going to be busy for a while they could post that, and perhaps orders for the next few turns. The op could be edited to show current/inactive/on hold players.

[The Celtic Viking]

Well, we kind of have that already, albeit not in one unified thread: you can put orders in your SOT (that's the "O" in SOT ) and if you say you have to go inactive for a while, the Treasury report will grey you out and freeze your account. The library also keeps track on how many Sessions each avatar has taken part in.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

See how much he trusts you to run things TCV?

Yeah, what have I ever done to deserve such distrust from you, Ibn?

It's not my fault! Some want-to-be-king-who-runs-away-when-he-see-the-first-sign-of-trouble never made any other posts to be remembered as a king.

About activity. Skullheadhq, GenosseGeneral, Visorslash and strategos roma are close to losing their avatars. Haven't seen them here for awhile.

I'll leave the decision whether to froze their private income or not to TCV.

[The Celtic Viking]

Then I'll freeze them. If they wish to continue playing and have their accounts unfrozen, they can answer my PM or announce it here.

What do you guys think about allowing active players to take over the estates of inactive ones? There are only so many spaces for estates, and 3 out of the Alexandreia slots are being taken up by GenosseGeneral, Alexandros Thraikikos (no player) and VisorSlash. I personally think that if someone's account gets frozen for inactivity, their estate should come up for grabs; it just doesn't make much sense letting people who aren't playing deny those who do the real moneymakers.

Edit: Skullhead answered my PM just two minutes after I posted this. He says he's on vacation and he'll be back in 1-2 weeks, so I'll freeze his account as a legitimate gonee until then, rather than as an inactive.

Edit 2: Visorslash is quitting. Ankhwennefer will probably be killed off as I think he's an RGB, which means that an estate spot in Alexandreia should open up.
