Subject:  Mass-Vacation

On the first day of vacation, the announcement sure shocked me.
On the second day of vacation, I was still too stunned to accept the veracity.
On the third day of vacation, I was bitter and angry.
On the fourth day of vacation, I wondered why this happened to me.
On the fifth day of vacation, I watched the left-over teks a bit jealously.
On the sixth day of vacation, I was in a bored misery.
On the seventh day of vacation, I felt nothing.
On the eight day of vacation, I was doing nothing.
On the ninth day of vacation, I felt myself begin to wonder.
On the tenth day of vacation, I felt the place seem to slumber.
On the eleventh day of vacation, I was overcome with curiousity.
On the twelfth day of vacation, I wondered if the moo would be at all like it
used to be.

Subject:  Hiding while IC

I prefer it like it is. Hiding is a privelege we all should have. Being
visible, IC or OOC, lets you be open to getting pages etc. Even if your not
hunting, maybe your in a private scene. No reason to not have hiding I think.

Being able to hide is one of the best advantages of this moo. @who is an ooc
tool, a lot of people abuse it just to stalk certain players. Icly how could
you know someone was about less you saw them or contacted them with the comm?

Quinn hacked up :@who one time for $players so that one time, if you went ic,
you were _never_ hidden from @who, but then concerns where raised to show that
@who was an OOC command only, so Quinn rehacked it. @where? from what I heard
it was just useless, and it was a way for people to cheat and loot people..
but I liked it.. was able to see where everyone was who had their location
public.. oh well, so goes life's dreary continuation.

ShadowHawk glanced around nervously as he sneaked into the cavern. For days,
he climbed Morlith's steep slopes avoiding the dread gaze of the dragons. Only
the driving force of his loins called him to continue his suicidal journey.
She sat blissfully before him, her onyx scales glinting in the light of his
brass lantern. ShadowHawk's elven sword didn't flash a bright blue so he must
be safe. A scarlet tongue lazily hung from her mouth, eyes swirled in color.
Hryxxli'nth rumbled something in the dragon tongue.
He moaned in excitement as the sounds passed through him, spine aquiver with
anticipation. Hryxxli'nth smiled a razor toothed smile as she coyly brought
her tail around her lower regions, leaning forward to ShadowHawk. She rumbled
something in the dragon tongue.
"No, I don't care if Yshar finds us out! Let our forbidden love be known to
all!"

Well, there goes my hope for today's dose of kink and innuendo. Hell, it's
hard enough finding tasteful words for -human- bodyparts--er... let's not go
there.
I mean, really.
I'll still never forget the day I auditioned for a phone sex job on a dare.
They had a list of 'sensual adjectives' they wanted people to work into their
calls. Well, I know they meant to say 'bulging', but... one little typo, and I
could just see...

..oooooooh baby, your bugling manhood just drives me WILD!!!

I guess it'd be playing taps at that point.

And yeah, that does prove once and for all that they hire some pretty scary
people. I turned the job down since I couldn't stop laughing or blushing.

For the record, though... I didn't win the bet. It was to see who could get
the oddest job in Los Angeles in a week's time. I tied with the guy who got a
job as pooper scooper for one of the county animal shelters.

That is supossed to read '1% of the partition on which your Windows

If you have a 2 GB drive, then that translates into 20 MB.  Now seeing as a

Yah know... I had started to believe we were gonna get by with no real winter
here in the Nation's Capital.  The outlying areas got some snow but DC and the
close in parts of VA and MD got nada but rain and a few light flurries that
never even made it to the ground.  Then the 75 degree weather showed up and
the trees started blooming and I thought.... Hey!  That was a pretty mild
winter.  Too cool.  And while I was a little disappointed that I wasn't going
to get to see my son's first impression of snow this year I wasn't too upset
because frankly I HATE snow and cold weather and would just as soon live on a
tropical island where little kids only see snow in cartoons and movies.

Then yesterday it was bloody fucking 10 degrees all damn day and they were
saying it was gonna snow.  Mind you, the snow never showed up... but it's
still fraggin cold.  I HATE COLD!!  BRING ON THE SPRING DAMN YOU!!

I think a major plot pulling everyone together would be cool too. The Fae (or
however you spell it) was fun, everyone I played with seemed to interact well
with it. But then the vacation came and it sort of fizzled out. Actually we
don't need GM's for it to continue, or any plot to happen, at least in my
opinion. All the characters were already in place, if certain objects or NPC
are need, perhaps the non vacationing GMs can help out.

Its fun working just 10 minutes from home :) I can read chat and post at lunch
sober, gee...what a concept.  I should have tried this before, I can actually
understand everything and not get pissed off about it.

I agree with Clayson, the fae plot was great and it seemed to be the first
thing in a long time that involved the entire moo, without being to invasive.
You could participate at any level you wanted.
I stil have Huntress and stil remember my little part in the plot, but things
seemed to have moved on. But, perhaps if enough people want to make another go
of it. AND we can find an TEK to help us out. Im all for finishing it. Or even
working on something else.

Okay I think we're obviously missing things that made this MOO fun. Look at
the purpose of the MOO, the theme. It's dark, life is supposed to be
difficult, and we're basicially supposed to be living by mere threads and the
only thing we have left is hope.

Well since the MOO is getting stagnant maybe we should have a meeting of
sorts. A friend brought up the simple fact that we don't need Geo or Tek to
help make a storyline, you just need imagination or something along that idea.
So what I wanted to do was have a sort of Rp meeting, We'll have people take a
bunch of ideas, some would even take over and start a storyline behind them.
Mainly we should start staying in theme.

Okay so maybe try for a meeting tonight at 8 EST, thats 5 PST for you others.
Just a sort of gtahering of brainstorming to get a few ideas to keep the game
interesting. *grin* So thats it for now, lets see what happens.

Subject:  Tek/Geo and plots

Do you NEED a Tek/Geo for plots? Nope. Are the plots usually alot more
detailed when run with them? (detailed as in new rooms/items/creatures/etc)
Yes indeed it is.
When I was doing 'Dawgs Will Hunt' aka Fae Plot, I intentionally tried to make
it a moo-wide plot so everyone, and not just those people in the center (the
heroes so to speak) would have things to do. At the end, which was just before
vacation and me making the R/T obsidian WEB and the spiders, I was about to
split the main people who seemed to be involved into two groups. Those that
wanted the merger and those that didn't. All in all, I figured about 12 PC's
in the main thrust of it. (When will I ever learn that 12 PC's is a handful).
I had more plans to do things that might bother the essentially non-involved
players, ergo, more changes to the R/T. Ya know you all loved Chauncey! Admit
it!
The point? Without a TEK/GEO plots on a large scale are pretty well damn hard
to do.

And the reason it was fizzled out? Vacation. A period of a week with no real
progress on a plot is a killer. We are past that now. I learned my lesson from
Spectre II, which dragged out over a period of months. People forgot what it
was all about.

need something that is gonna stick around. Part of the foundation of the moo.

Subject:  'gms' and plots

There's a fairly large difference between needing Teks/Geos to do things for
large plots, and needing Teks/Geos to come up with plots for everybody else.
If someone came up with a really good plot idea, and needed code and building
backup for it, they should have a place to bring it to the attention of the
wizzen at large.  They need to think through their idea, and be willing to
answer questions about it, and be open to the idea that it just won't work, or
won't happen, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't bring the ideas to the
'staff'.  Idealy we would have a group of experienced RPers, even people who
have GMed games IRL, who are fairly versed in Ghostwheel history, and
semi-aquainted with the world of what's possible and what's not in MOO.  This
group of 5-7 people would have regular meetings, and come up with plots for
the whole MOO.  Various members would be responsible for keeping track of
various MOO 'Factions', one representative who keeps watch over the
dragonriders, one for the submariners, etc.  They don't need to be $builders
or $programmers, infact, they shouldn't be.  They should be focused on coming
up with plans for plots, and cultivating RP.  What this MOO is essentially
about.  Once they had a plot idea, with a full description of what's supposed
to happen, and what needs to be coded/built, this would be passed on to the
Programming/Building team (which should be fairly small), who then dole out
the building and coding between themselves.
There would be one builder/coder in the RPG Team, which would comment on the
viability of ideas, and the construction of new areas.  The RPG Team would
meet perhaps once a week, with their own *list that only they, and the Tek/Geo
Team would have access to.  The Tek/Geo group would correspond with each other
through pages and moo-mail lists, with a definite list of
currently-being-worked-on projects.  Tek/Geos would not be responsible for
developing plot, and would indeed be discouraged from doing so.  If members of
the RPG team wanted to develop a new area, they could either submit the room
descriptions to a Geo/Tek that would impliment them, or the rooms could be
built, @chowned to a player and described, and then @chowned to a utility RPG
character for safe-keeping.
Being on the RPG team would grant members no special powers, other than the
duty to create an interesting timeline for players, and possibly addition into
a 'Player-helpers pool', which would have automated verbs to alert its members
of players who needed help.

THE BATTLE OF CUCAMONGA

In Nineteen and fifty-nine we took a little hike
With our Scoutmaster down to Lake Aneekanike
We took a little pizza and we took some sauerkraut
And we marched along together till we heard the Girl Scouts

Oh, we're the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature's ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze
(And I was made 'cause me mother sent me up here - ha ha ha)

Well, we crept up to the water and we seed the girls a-swimmin'
There must have been a hunnered of them pretty young women
They looked so fine even birds forgot to sing
We laid down in the poison oak and didn't say a thing

Oh, we're the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature's ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze
(Hey, will one of you fellers scratch my back?)

Well, our counselor said we could take 'em by surprise
If we didn't say a word till we looked 'em in the eyes
We kept real still, and we had our eyes a-glued
We saw how they were dressed - they were swimming in the...

Well, now, we're the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature's ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the
brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast even we couldn't catch 'em
>From Lake Aneekanike all the way to Buffalo
(Hey, fellers, wait for me!)

Well, we ran right after them till everyone was pooped
So we rested for a minute and our forces we regrouped
Then we saw the girls behind some evergreens
Captured by a company of United States Marines

Oh, we're the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature's ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze
(Ah, them big guys get everything!)

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the
brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran so fast even we couldn't catch 'em
>From Lake Aneekanike all the way to Buffalo

(A rooty toot toot, a rooty toot toot
Oh, we are the boys from the Boy Scout troop
We don't smoke, and we don't chew
And we don't go with the girls that do!)

Would you bother to live in a place where the world was SHAKEN TO ITS VERY
FOUNDATION every day?  Wouldn't these threats to civilization itself get kind
of old after a while?  When Megaspaceghost comes to swallow the Earth for the
umpteenth time, wouldn't you just roll over, mumble "Eh." and go back to
sleep?

One of the reasons I vacationed everyone was because there seemed to be a
sense of "inflation".  Monsters too powerful, plots too far-reaching.  Things
had become less personal, more global.  We're a splintered, fractured,
shattered society -- our plots should follow that pattern.

Honestly, the kind of character I'd play wouldn't give a fuck about dragons or
little fairies invading the world.  You know what he'd be doing?  He'd be
walking down the highway dragging a chain behind him.  Attached to that chain
would be a couple dozen unwashed little cub scouts and brownies.  He'd be
interested in getting them to their buyer.

I'm for less staged "plots" and more personalities.  Crime lords of junkyard
cities, nomad tribes, 18-wheeler wagon trains storming across the red sands,
hoards of gay mutant bikers, mutant monks in crumbling amusement parks.

Or just some scruffy guy you meet in a bar with a 12-gauge and a ventriloquist
dummy.

world was ALREADY destroyed.  We're past that.  Now we get on with what's
important -- people.  You are the people.

play all day anymore :( But then Quinns post hit it the nail pretty much on
the head. I just think we should get back to playing like we did before. When
I first came here it was so much fun, it still is, dont get me wrong. But then
there was no frowning on players who looted, kidnapped and murdered. There
were ppl wandering the wheel just to do it, everything was an adventure,
hiding and running away from outrageous players was an everyday occurrence.

For some reason we have grown soft, we have allowed ourselves to be guided by
those who did not want to participate in such actions.  I know I have, Smoke
would never return a weapon or by pass anyone she could taunt or kill, but now
it seems the norm of this game. I would really love to see more cyber punk
players, I know I try to push this all the time, but in my mind, to me, these
ppl would exist in a world of total distraction.

I get the feeling sometimes that players dance around, afraid to step on any
ones toes. I know nobody likes to lose, but do you really win or lose here?
Sure you might lose a weapon, but as long as hoarding is kept to a minimum. I
really dont see the problem. If someone icly attacks you, loots and kills you.
Then you gang up and kick the shit out of that player. If we spent the time
playing, instead of posting to *sb and chat about our loses and ooc hurt
feelings, well, I think we would have a hell of a lot more fun.

Despite the fact that that post seemed to contain a thinly veiled insult or
two, be it a concious effort on Smoke's part, or unconcious, I'm afraid I
agree with her to a degree. There's far too much whining about coded combat,
and coded consequences.

For the most part Players don't kill players or even loot other players
anymore it's gotten so that if you ko someone they expect you to leave all the
stuff they are carrying alone and to apolgize for using the evil coded combat
..I think if you lose a fight you should be looted ...would you leave your
enemy a shotgun to shoot you with later ? this place needs a good dose of fear
and uncertenty <chuckles>

Oh yeah my post to ideas about background stuff wasn't about some large plot
that would endanger the wourld ..it was more a hope that thigns the the Corps
woudl become active, hireing players to do odd things out in the waste ..or
maybe the recombs would join up and start demanding Reproductive rights ...or
some religous group could try to convince people that the Eagle is keeping
them from God....

Subject:  From my understanding...

The 'TP' that's been proposed, while possibly having sweeping effects, is
simply setting up a power structure. Characters can choose to become a part of
it, or choose not to. It's up to them as to whether they wish to become
involved or not.
I agree whole heartedly with Quinn. The world being threatened, day in, day
out, gets old. It gets old FAST. Also, however, and I might be misinterpreting
him entirely, but it seems that his ideas also apply to not having constant
threat or crisis _all_ the time to your character.
There is too much whining about coded combat. Far too much. You pick a fight,
expect consequences. Alot of people I have seen refuse to take them.
Personally, I prefer uncoded combat. It allows for a little more creativity,
and, at times, more realism. I prefer it for the RP value of the scene, as
well as the fact that I get rather quickly tired of hearing people scream and
whine if I do otherwise.
While there is constant danger in the game world, and well there _should_ be,
players should also not be threatened by impending doom at every moment. It
gets boring. It begins to seem 'hopeless' if you realize, and people quickly
do, that they are not, and will not, be on par with the stat gods, or oldbie
characters with excessive holdings, ever.
Alot of it is about playing the character. Yes, there are a hell of alot of
people I could codedly do as I will with. It's a choice not to, because of the
nature of the character that I play. Just because it is a cruel world, this
does not necessitate that every character in it exist only for the sake of
harming others. A well-rounded character has motivations, memories, history --
all things that make up the reasons for what they do. If you give a great deal
of thought, or even, usually, a little, to what makes the character 'tick', so
to speak, you'll know how they will respond to certain situations. Characters
raised in certain faiths and beliefs may, perhaps, never harm a child, woman,
or insane person. Others may think these all beneath them, and exterminate
them whenever possible.
We, as people, react to the world around us based on the experiences in the
lives that we have led. Similarly, our characters would react to the world
around them from the experiences that we have defined them as having. It can
be just as interesting to have a philosophical argument between characters of
conflicting beliefs or views as it is to slam them down with a blade.  I am
NOT saying that it is 'bad' to slam someone down with a blade, I am saying
that, with a well developed character, you can do -more- than just slam
someone down with a blade. There are options out there that apply to a
disjointed world that are not _all_ combat based.
Wars have started over simple breaches of customs unknown to one side or the
other -- lack of understanding those in the world, or the world itself, can
become the grounds for all levels of conflicts.
The proposed ideas, I believe, will help to stir up some action. If you don't
feel like being stirred by them, don't. There is no impending doom in the
thought of Red holding his keep in the Oasis, or Rathe living in the Mystique
house -- or is there? These are things that have developed ICly. Small power
struggles that have, in some ways, built up over time. What has been proposed
merely is that we take advantage of these already existing situations and use
them to stimulate role-play.
If you don't believe in the intrigue and possible role-play possibilities of
such organizations, then read Romeo and Juliet -- or most of history, for that
matter. This plot seems, to me, to be a go ahead to 'do your own thing and see
if you can make it work'. It sounds like a great deal of fun (and I don't even
own anything!) and in alot of ways, it's what everyone has been doing all
along. Yes, the Montagues and Capulets suffered heavy losses -- and Verona
certainly had a few pock-marks to remind the rest of the citizenry about how
warring factions can mark many lives -- but the city still stood, battle scars
notwithstanding -- and most of the people living there probably never even
noticed.

That's one of my two cents. I need the other to buy myself s'more painkillers.

Well, these are my ideas for new plot like areas and development. I've already
MOOmailed them to interested people and Quinn, and because the response was
positive (so far) so I'll post them here.

I seriously doubt that my suggestions would be coming at a good time with the
vacations being in effect. Plus these would involve building rather than just
a plot for people to be involved with, but they would be something to hinge
plots around. Also, these areas would be located in the Wastes. I send these
because I would like to see GhostWheel take on a new bent rather than the
Renaissance Faire atmosphere that has become prevalent but without entirely
dismissing the medieval feel that other wizards have created and some people
have gotten used to.
My first idea would be to have a camp of escaped recombs (where recombs could
live ICly, Jizo becoming a protectorate for non-escaped recombs. but this
would step on the toes of Nebula but it's still an idea) somewhere out in the
wastes with a feel like an Arabian bazaar. It wouldn't involve any mega/meta
rooms since it would already be in one, and there would be some areas where
there would be hunting of sorts of the recombs that weren't quite right when
they were made and the escaped recombs took pity upon them and also kept them
for war beasts or something.
My second idea would be a group of people who were deep underground in mines
that were refitted to be shelters. I'd see them as being like the Brotherhood
of Steel in a way, but without the super-tech, but this would also be a hook
to make the Tech Order become an entity again rather than a series of $rooms
taking up space. The mine people would be few and far between, but they would
be maintained by robots that would protect them. I'd say this would be located
in the military tunnels underneath 10/10 in the wastes and accessible by the
never working shuttle in the subways (at least they would have rerouted it to
their place to go topside). I admit this idea is pretty superficial unlike the
other idea, but it'd be something to balance out the Dungeons and Dragons that
has taken over GhostWheel.
Please reply when you can, and I will be sharing this message with other
people who show an interest. I'd like to give something back to GhostWheel
that gave me much fun before.

Part of the a TEK/GEO's job is to do the huge plots. At least that is what
their role ALWAYS seemed to me to be. Now if it is something different here,
no one made it very clear. Yes, Q, that was a comment directed to you. I am
more then happy to just build etc. But as I said in the player meeting, this
moo is heavily dependent on $staff doing things for players.

Posed combat vs Coded:

Okay then if I win in posed combat, I expect you to hand over anything you
have on your person that I may want. That is assuming people will actually
lose in posed combat when we have no impartial comparing system. Sure, I know
Rathe could whip my tail, not so sure Seraph could.

While I am on that: More killing and looting!

No Rathe, I did not intend to insult anyone in my post. What I was trying to
get across is this, ever time someone loots, kills or basically does something
another, or group of players don't like they are labeled a twink. So the
'danger' or 'excitement' leaves the game till you have a bunch of ppl sitting
idle, leaving or eventually conform to the screaming masses.

Anyway, lets just play who we want, there is so much imagination. Dont be
afraid of the labelers, just come out and have fun.
