(06/01 13:00:12) Korov'ev: Shorah, and welcome to the 110th All Guilds Meeting!
(06/01 13:00:36) Korov'ev: In the D'ni calendar today is Leebro 4, 9675, and the time is 19:04:15
(06/01 13:01:08) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(06/01 13:01:20) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(06/01 13:01:29) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(06/01 13:01:47) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(06/01 13:02:26) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(06/01 13:02:37) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' brand new site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(06/01 13:02:46) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with "/startlog".
(06/01 13:03:01) Christian Walther: I'm missing half your text, Kor.
(06/01 13:03:10) Christian Walther: Assuming there were 5 rules as usual.
(06/01 13:03:26) PodHopper: last we seen is 3
(06/01 13:03:37) Korov'ev: hmm, I have autoshout on…
(06/01 13:03:44) : [ Auto Shout Disabled ]
(06/01 13:03:46) : [ Auto Shout Enabled ]
(06/01 13:03:55) Korov'ev: can you read me?

(06/01 13:04:42) Teej: yes
(06/01 13:04:50) bella1: Lol
(06/01 13:04:54) Claidi Song: lol
(06/01 13:05:08) Korov'ev shrugs
(06/01 13:05:13) Korov'ev: It's another busy month, so we have no special events from the community. But things keep happening behind the curtains: Writers are writing, Maintainers are maintaining, and so on…
(06/01 13:05:26) Korov'ev: So we'll jump straight to the Cyan news, as we have some more news on that front 😉
(06/01 13:05:36) Korov'ev: Let's start of course with the Firmament Kickstarter…
(06/01 13:05:52) Korov'ev: You should have received an email from Fangamer, with a link to a survey page that you should fill/confirm with your mailing details.
(06/01 13:06:15) Korov'ev: From there, you will also be able to upgrade your pledge and add on other tiers, if you'd like to.
(06/01 13:06:17) bella1: I did!
(06/01 13:06:28) Mirphak: I did too.
(06/01 13:06:37) Korov'ev: If you didn't get it, the resender link is: https://fulfillment.fangamer.com/kindling/firmament/survey_support
(06/01 13:06:53) Claidi Song: Got it
(06/01 13:06:54) Korov'ev: Or you can email orders[at]fangamer.com with your Kickstarter backer number if you still can't access the survey.
(06/01 13:07:10) Korov'ev: If you missed the Kickstarter campaign, you can now back the game through Fangamer! https://fulfillment.fangamer.com/kindling/firmament
(06/01 13:07:35) Korov'ev: Now, if you're one of the unlucky few who still haven't received the Myst 25 goodies (because they didn't fill the Blackbox survey in time or because their rewards were lost, returned, or with defective pieces),
(06/01 13:07:57) Korov'ev: they are being shipped directly from Cyan these weeks. You should receive an email soon; it's a time-consuming process, so it might still take some time.
(06/01 13:08:37) Korov'ev: Moving to Cyan Ventures' first publication (http://bit.ly/ZEDgame) … ZED
(06/01 13:08:48) Korov'ev: We have a lauch date: June 4!
(06/01 13:08:54) Korov'ev: Very soon!
(06/01 13:09:25) Korov'ev: On the same day, at 1:00 PM EDT (11:00 KIT) there will be a live stream with Chuck Carter, on Cyan's Twitch Channel (https://www.twitch.tv/cyan_inc).
(06/01 13:09:54) Korov'ev: Now, moving to Mysterium…
(06/01 13:10:21) Korov'ev: The Early Bird registration ends TODAY, so hurry if you're planning to attend!
(06/01 13:10:40) Korov'ev: The hotel is basically booked solid at this point. There may be one or two rooms still available, but that's it.
(06/01 13:10:58) Korov'ev: The Commission is actively working with the hotel to secure a block of overflow rooms; in the meantime, some people on the Discord server have expressed an interest in sharing rooms.
(06/01 13:11:05) Korov'ev: https://discord.gg/xXvSA7E
(06/01 13:11:30) Korov'ev: Also, after Russell Brower, Chuck Carter and Jack Wall, another special guest has been announced…
(06/01 13:11:47) Korov'ev:
(06/01 13:11:50) Korov'ev: Tim Larkin!
(06/01 13:12:06) Korov'ev: He started as sound designer for Riven, and later as the Audio Director and composer for Uru and Myst V. Currently he works at Valve for games such as DOTA, CSGO, Half Life, Portal, etc.
(06/01 13:13:05) Korov'ev: Now, before moving to the calendar, a message from r`Tayrtahn…
(06/01 13:13:18) Korov'ev: Due to heavy electrical storms, he can't stay on-line.
(06/01 13:13:26) Korov'ev: Story Night – Europe is canceled for today due to local storms.
(06/01 13:13:37) Korov'ev: It will return next week at its normal time. Original Story Night is still on as scheduled.
(06/01 13:13:57) Korov'ev shrugs
(06/01 13:13:57) Korov'ev: And with that, it's already time to wrap up this Meeting!
(06/01 13:14:05) Korov'ev: Here is the summary of this month's events (times in KI time)…
(06/01 13:14:12) Korov'ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers' Hood;
(06/01 13:14:26) Korov'ev: if you find a mistake, please PM me here or on the forum so I can correct it.

(06/01 13:19:13) Christian Walther: Last thing we got was RAWA's birthday, did we miss anything else?
(06/01 13:19:25) Korov'ev: Friday 21, or Leebro 20 in the D’ni Calendar, is the Second Feast of the Maker.

(05/11 13:02:42)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(05/11 13:03:13)Korov’ev: It’s a busy month, so there were no big news from the community. But things keep happening behind the curtains: Writers are writing, OpenUru is testing, and so on.

(05/11 13:03:42)Korov’ev: So today we’ll jump straight to the Cyan news, as plenty of great things happened on that front 😉

(05/11 13:04:06)Korov’ev: As you might be aware, the Firmament Kickstarter was a success! (https://firmamentgame.com/)

(05/11 13:04:22)Thumbs up from rarified

(05/11 13:04:23)Tom(Samoth): Yeah!

(05/11 13:04:33)Korov’ev: On the last day of the campaign, Cyan committed to making the macOS and PS4 versions, and EFIGS support, available even if the stretch goal wasn’t reached.

(05/11 13:04:50)Umo: woah cool

(05/11 13:04:51)Korov’ev: Luckly enough, the stretch goal WAS reached, so it’ll be easier for them to do it!

(05/11 13:05:09)Korov’ev: During the campaign, Cyan had AMA sessions on Reddit ( /r/FirmamentGame ) and Discord (N75H64X), a live streaming on Facebook ( @firmamentgame ), and linked Proof of Concept demo streamings:

(05/11 13:05:14)Umo dances

(05/11 13:05:20)Emor D’ni Lap: an impressive last-few-days push, it was!

(05/11 13:05:35)bella1 dances

(05/11 13:05:40)rarified: The Cyan community is dedicated!

(05/11 13:05:44)Umo dances

(05/11 13:05:49)Korov’ev: Many of us were worried, but … it`s happening!

(05/11 13:05:59)Korov’ev: As with the Myst 25 KS, there were community goals, which of course were achieved!

(05/11 13:06:10)Korov’ev: Rewards will be: 1) a 3D printable model of the Adjunct; 2) some Firmament concept and in-game arts; 3) one of the first music tracks.

(05/11 13:06:39)Korov’ev: Cyan also clarified that the $49+ tier will include custom narrative elements and unique skins ONLY available to backers.

(05/11 13:07:21)Korov’ev: There will be of course ways to back the game for those who missed the KS.

(05/11 13:07:29)Korov’ev: The current plan is to support Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Rift S, Valve Index, and of course Windows and macOS.

(05/11 13:07:41)Korov’ev: By the way, Obduction will be updated for Rift S and Valve Index too.

(05/11 13:08:13)Korov’ev: Rift S is what was known as Knuckles, I think.

(05/11 13:08:53)Korov’ev: At the moment, Linux doesn`t seem to be planned for.

(05/11 13:09:05)Korov’ev: Next, for the Myst25 campaign Cyan partnered with Nvidia, to provide exclusive codes to gain access to the free GeForce Now beta (Archivist tier and higher).

(05/11 13:09:20)Emor D’ni Lap: Now all backers can start their own class-action “buy us a Rift” Kicksatarter campaign!

(05/11 13:09:30)Korov’ev: GeForce Now provides gamers with the ability to stream gameplay rendered remotely, trading the need for high-end specs with fast streaming (at least 25 Mbit/s).

(05/11 13:10:08)Korov’ev: Also, the Myst e-Book novels and the Riven digital map rewards for Writer’s tier backers have arrived! Details for their distribution will arrive soon.

(05/11 13:10:26)Korov’ev: For Mass Mysteria, at the end the conventions were held in: Denver, Boston, Rochester, Cleveland, Columbus, Portland, Salt Lake City.

(05/11 13:10:37)Korov’ev: The only non-U.S.A. event was held in Berlin, Germany. The Melbourne, Australia one has been postponed to a soon-to-be-announced date.

(05/11 13:11:00)Korov’ev: Participants enjoyed escape rooms, scavenger hunts, museum visits, puzzles and souvenirs, and already some people have started making plans for next year!

(05/11 13:11:33)Korov’ev: Unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to participate to any, so I can’t relay any personal experience. Conventions are always fun, though 🙂

(05/11 13:11:49)Korov’ev: For Mysterium, registration and hotel reservations are open: the location will be the Ruby River Hotel in downtown Spokane.

(05/11 13:11:55)Korov’ev: The Committee has secured a rate of $119/night for one-bed rooms and $129/night for two-bed rooms (plus tax).

(05/11 13:12:01)Korov’ev: As for the registration to the convention itself, from now until June 1st you can purchase a weekend pass for $35 or a premium pass (weekend + shirt + coloring book) for $60.

(05/11 13:12:07)Korov’ev: The Committee is also collecting memories from past editions, to be displayed in some fashion.

(05/11 13:12:24)Korov’ev: As a reminder, event submissions are still open. The deadline is May 20 (close!).

(05/11 13:12:46)Korov’ev: Before we move on to the calendar, some good news: explorer Peke’s operation went well and she is doing fine, and already visited the Cavern again a few times!

(05/11 13:13:10)Emor D’ni Lap applauds

(05/11 13:13:11)Tai’lahr: Great news!

(05/11 13:13:23)Korov’ev: Also, happy birthday to Mirphak 🙂

(05/11 13:13:50)Umo: happy birthday!

(05/11 13:13:53)Korov’ev shrugs

(05/11 13:13:53)Korov’ev: And with that, it’s already time to wrap up this Meeting!

(05/11 13:13:58)axenna: Whoa

(05/11 13:14:01)Korov’ev: Here is the summary of this month’s events (times in KI time)…

(05/11 13:14:02)Umo: haha

(05/11 13:14:03)Ro”Jethhe is amazed!

(05/11 13:14:11)Korov’ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers’ Hood;

(05/11 13:14:17)Korov’ev: if you find a mistake, please PM me here or on the forum so I can correct it.

(05/11 13:14:53)Korov’ev: Yeah, the Firmament KS kept everyone too busy to prepare an announcement 🙂

(05/11 13:15:03)Korov’ev: Wednesday 8 was the anniversary of Myst III: Exile; the related Wikipedia page was featured on the home page!

(05/11 13:15:22)Korov’ev: Sunday 19 is the anniversary of the GameTap episode “Scars”.

(05/11 13:15:23)radioflux: Great game

(05/11 13:15:33)Korov’ev: Now, for what’s going on in the Cavern itself:

(05/11 13:15:39)Korov’ev: The Guild of Greeters’ Hood is staffed Monday-Saturday 13:45-14:15, if you need hints or info about the Cavern.

(05/11 13:15:46)Korov’ev: Great actor 🙂

(…)

(05/11 13:33:26)shokhootahn Rehn: I have a couple of annoucements for the AGM… for those of you who are left. 🙂

(05/11 13:34:02)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(05/11 13:34:20)Eternal Seeker points

(05/11 13:34:22)shokhootahn Rehn: On the surface, I have finished moving. Yay!!! I am still putting things away and finding forever homes for everything. As a result there will not be any daytime classes until further notice. They *should* be able to return sometime in June. Night time classes, however, will resume this week

(05/11 13:34:43)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(05/11 13:34:51)Umo: yeaahhh

(05/11 13:34:56)Umo screams

(05/11 13:34:57)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to class times.

(05/11 13:35:07)shokhootahn Rehn: You can get those advertisements by adding him as a buddy and then sending him a PM with the word: advert

(05/11 13:35:20)shokhootahn Rehn: If Magic Bot is not on-line, you can also PM Mimi Bot (KI #71459) the word, as well.

(05/11 13:35:32)Umo: advert

(05/11 13:35:33)shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session. I will announce the availability of classes on the Hood imager when they are ready to resume.

(05/11 13:35:43)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(05/11 13:35:49)Rabbit leans left

(05/11 13:36:00)shokhootahn Rehn leans right

(05/11 13:36:04)shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.

(05/11 13:36:05)Umo yells

(05/11 13:36:13)shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be finishing the events from The Book of Atrus and starting the events from the game of Myst. Please not, I will only be telling the story of the events. No puzzle spoikers will be given out during the story.

(05/11 13:36:22)shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in The Book of D’ni and will finish with it next week week where I will give an explanation for all of the prophecies we’ve heard. Then, it will be on to the game of Exile.

(05/11 13:36:32)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(05/11 13:36:35)Umo: europe is at a different stage of the history

(05/11 13:36:43)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.

(05/11 13:36:51)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.

(05/11 13:37:02)shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, ’tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(05/11 13:37:11)Rabbit: great to have you back, Shokhootah r’tay!

(05/11 13:37:13)Rabbit starts to laugh

(05/11 13:37:15)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(05/11 13:37:28)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(05/11 13:37:37)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED!

(05/11 13:37:44)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI mail so they were unable to be added.

(05/11 13:37:51)bella1: Rehn/r’tay thank you for you service!

(05/11 13:37:54)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to Story Night times.

(05/11 13:38:05)shokhootahn Rehn: Again, Story Night – Europe will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of today’s AGM or at 14:00 KI time, whichever is later.

(05/11 13:38:13)shokhootahn Rehn: (14:00, today)

(05/11 13:38:18)Rabbit does a dance

(05/11 13:38:24)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(05/11 13:01:09) Korov'ev: Shorah, and welcome to the 109th All Guilds Meeting!

(05/11 13:01:38) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(05/11 13:01:44) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(05/11 13:01:52) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(05/11 13:02:01) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(05/11 13:02:19) Korov'ev: (though there might be no speakers today…)
(05/11 13:02:27) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(05/11 13:02:35) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' brand new site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(05/11 13:02:42) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with "/startlog".
(05/11 13:03:13) Korov'ev: It's a busy month, so there were no big news from the community. But things keep happening behind the curtains: Writers are writing, OpenUru is testing, and so on.
(05/11 13:03:42) Korov'ev: So today we'll jump straight to the Cyan news, as plenty of great things happened on that front 😉
(05/11 13:04:06) Korov'ev: As you might be aware, the Firmament Kickstarter was a success! (https://firmamentgame.com/)

(05/11 13:33:26) shokhootahn Rehn: I have a couple of annoucements for the AGM… for those of you who are left. 🙂
(05/11 13:34:02) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(05/11 13:34:20) Eternal Seeker points
(05/11 13:34:22) shokhootahn Rehn: On the surface, I have finished moving. Yay!!! I am still putting things away and finding forever homes for everything. As a result there will not be any daytime classes until further notice. They *should* be able to return sometime in June. Night time classes, however, will resume this week
(05/11 13:34:43) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(05/11 13:34:51) Umo: yeaahhh
(05/11 13:34:56) Umo screams
(05/11 13:34:57) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot's (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to class times.
(05/11 13:35:07) shokhootahn Rehn: You can get those advertisements by adding him as a buddy and then sending him a PM with the word: advert
(05/11 13:35:20) shokhootahn Rehn: If Magic Bot is not on-line, you can also PM Mimi Bot (KI #71459) the word, as well.
(05/11 13:35:32) Umo: advert
(05/11 13:35:33) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session. I will announce the availability of classes on the Hood imager when they are ready to resume.
(05/11 13:35:43) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(05/11 13:35:49) Rabbit leans left
(05/11 13:35:57) bella1 cheers
(05/11 13:36:00) shokhootahn Rehn leans right
(05/11 13:36:04) shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.
(05/11 13:36:05) Umo yells
(05/11 13:36:13) shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be finishing the events from The Book of Atrus and starting the events from the game of Myst. Please not, I will only be telling the story of the events. No puzzle spoikers will be given out during the story.
(05/11 13:36:22) shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in The Book of D'ni and will finish with it next week week where I will give an explanation for all of the prophecies we've heard. Then, it will be on to the game of Exile.
(05/11 13:36:32) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(05/11 13:36:35) Umo: europe is at a different stage of the history
(05/11 13:36:40) Claidi Song cheers
(05/11 13:36:43) 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.
(05/11 13:36:48) bella1 cheers
(05/11 13:36:51) 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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.
(05/11 13:37:02) shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, 'tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(05/11 13:37:11) Rabbit: great to have you back, Shokhootah r'tay!
(05/11 13:37:13) Rabbit starts to laugh
(05/11 13:37:15) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(05/11 13:37:28) 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 so it must be added to the body of the text.
(05/11 13:37:37) shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED!
(05/11 13:37:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI mail so they were unable to be added.
(05/11 13:37:51) bella1: Rehn/r'tay thank you for you service!
(05/11 13:37:54) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot's (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to Story Night times.
(05/11 13:38:05) shokhootahn Rehn: Again, Story Night – Europe will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of today's AGM or at 14:00 KI time, whichever is later.
(05/11 13:38:13) shokhootahn Rehn: (14:00, today)
(05/11 13:38:18) Rabbit does a dance
(05/11 13:38:24) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(04/06 13:00:52) Korov’ev: Happy Day of the Circle, and welcome to the 108th All Guilds Meeting!
(04/06 13:01:04) Korov’ev: Trivia: since April 2010, when it started, only one All Guilds Meeting was skipped.
(04/06 13:01:25) Boywhith: why was that?
(04/06 13:01:33) My.St’ro: yeah?
(04/06 13:01:40) Korov’ev: It was one of the early ones
(04/06 13:01:54) Korov’ev: In the D’ni calendar today is Leenovoo 18, 9674, and the time is 8:01:16
(04/06 13:02:00) My.St’ro: excusable then
(04/06 13:02:05) Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(04/06 13:02:13) Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(04/06 13:02:28) Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(04/06 13:02:40) Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.
(04/06 13:02:50) Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.
(04/06 13:03:03) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' brand new site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(04/06 13:03:07) Boywhith: and 6: Don’t feed the Bahro!
(04/06 13:03:12) Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.
(04/06 13:03:40) Korov’ev: And don`t drink the lake water!
(04/06 13:03:53) Korov’ev: PSA: as Mass Mysteria is on May 4, the next Meeting is postponed to the 11th.
(04/06 13:04:14) Korov’ev: This month we have both the International Mother Earth Day and the D’ni New Year!
(04/06 13:04:27) Korov’ev: Of course, parties are being planned 😉

(04/06 13:11:12) Minasunda: 4. — The dance group will have to do some rehearsals. I know, it is very tempting to watch us 🙂 🙂 🙂

(04/06 13:11:40) Minasunda: So if you see Mir-O-Bot in Tsogal with 5 or more people and you do not want to spoil the surprise, then DO NOT come to Mir-O-Bot :)))

(04/06 13:14:19) Eternal Seeker claps his hands
(04/06 13:14:43) rarified: I wanted to give a quick update on progress in the OU world towards
(04/06 13:14:59) rarified: moving Fan Content along.
(04/06 13:15:21) rarified: As I announced last AGM, I’ve been able to restore the proper behavior of
(04/06 13:15:43) rarified: the basic Minkata shard, and people have not found problems there over the last few weeks.
(04/06 13:16:00) rarified: This month I’ve been working hard to deploy what I’m calling Minkata Alpha.
(04/06 13:16:25) rarified: This is the shard that a particular Fan Content item will appear when it becomes
(04/06 13:16:31) rarified: elegible for testing.
(04/06 13:16:48) rarified: Bringing up the shard has required some changes (fixes) to the game client, as well
(04/06 13:16:54) rarified: as bringing up a second server.
(04/06 13:17:17) rarified: I want to give our testers my appreciation for keeping up on spotting problems
(04/06 13:17:28) rarified: with the Alpha shard, and behavior of the client.
(04/06 13:17:52) rarified: There is no Fan Content there … yet. But I am “This Close” ™ to asking Doobes
(04/06 13:18:07) rarified: for a current copy of his Pub, to start working with that.
(04/06 13:18:24) rarified: There are also a couple of changes that have to be brought over from the H’Uru
(04/06 13:18:44) rarified: client code base in order to use content generated with the current Korman.
(04/06 13:19:10) rarified: These are all happening behind the scenes, so to speak. But I am starting to get
(04/06 13:19:37) rarified: optimistic about announcing a wide-open test on Minkata Alpha soon.
(04/06 13:20:01) rarified: Once we have got Fan Content working there, we will be working on a process for
(04/06 13:20:24) rarified: submitting Fan Content to Cyan for their approval and hopefully integration into MOULa.
(04/06 13:20:44) My.St’ro: That’s awesome!
(04/06 13:20:46) rarified: I do think that Doobes’ pub won’t be the first item, our past discussions with Cyan
(04/06 13:20:55) TT101: Shorah everyone :))
(04/06 13:21:13) rarified: indicated they would like to have a bridge (i.e. Fan Nexus) in place first.
(04/06 13:21:32) rarified: But there are several projects in that category either complete or almost so.
(04/06 13:21:41) rarified: So… stay tuned!

(04/06 13:22:43) Korov’ev: Time for some Mysterium and Cyan news…
(04/06 13:22:52) Korov’ev: The Myst e-Book novels and the Riven digital map rewards for Writer’s tier backers have not yet been released, and there’s no estimate of when yet.
(04/06 13:23:05) Korov’ev: Also, the Fangamer coupon has been extended: you now have until April 30th to use it. Fangamer also confirms new items will be available soon.
(04/06 13:23:23) Korov’ev: Now, for the news most of you are expecting: the Kickstarter for Firmament is open!
(04/06 13:23:31) Korov’ev: https://firmamentgame.com/
(04/06 13:24:02) Korov’ev: Currently it’s 45% funded, but the more funds it gets the better, so if you haven’t backed it yet, it’s time!
(04/06 13:24:19) Korov’ev: If you enjoy anxiety, you can see a live projection here: http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/1252280491/firmament/
(04/06 13:24:36) Korov’ev: As a clarification, while the game is developed for VR first, it will work fine as a classic PC game too.
(04/06 13:24:40) rarified reaches for oxygen
(04/06 13:24:53) Korov’ev: Unfortunately, support for macOS is not planned for the Kickstarter. Cyan is working on it, but for now it will be for Windows only.
(04/06 13:25:05) Korov’ev: The release is currently planned to be on Steam, GOG, Viveport, and Oculus Store.
(04/06 13:25:07) BIG thumbs down from R0’JETHHE
(04/06 13:25:22) Korov’ev: By the way, if you were at PAX East or Indie MegaBooth, Cyan showcased Firmament and ZED there, respectively.
(04/06 13:25:36) Korov’ev: Speaking of Kickstarters: if you backed The Five Cores, the soundtrack of the game will be composed by Alain Pachins, aka Turjan Aylahn!
(04/06 13:26:06) Korov’ev: For Mysterium, registration and hotel reservations are now open!
(04/06 13:26:23) Korov’ev: The location will be the Ruby River Hotel in downtown Spokane, in walking distance of the downtown core and Riverfront Park, and overlooks the Spokane River.

(04/06 13:31:33) shokhootahn Rehn: On the surface, I am in the process of moving. As a result there will not be any daytime classes until further notice. They *should* be able to return sometime in June.
(04/06 13:32:09) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public. I will announce the availability of classes on the Hood imager when they are ready to resume.
(04/06 13:33:56) shokhootahn Rehn: Thre are two more students who have completed their classes and submitted their final exams. Unfortunately, due to the afore-mentioned surface ussues, I have not been able to grade them, as yet. I will get to them as soon as possible so please be patient. 🙂
(04/06 13:34:09) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(04/06 13:34:18) Korov’ev: none in queue
(04/06 13:34:31) shokhootahn Rehn: kk
(04/06 13:34:34) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.
(04/06 13:34:44) shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.
(04/06 13:34:58) shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be continuing the events from The Book of Atrus.
(04/06 13:35:35) shokhootahn Rehn: Please note: due to Easter weekend there will be no Story Night – Europe on April 20. Story Night – Europe will resume on April 27… barring any last-minute travel plans. The actual move will be towards the end of the month so there may or may not be a story on April 27. You can always check the left imager in the Hood, the bots, or the forums… though, I don’t always remember to post updates in the forums.
(04/06 13:35:46) shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in The Book of D’ni.
(04/06 13:36:30) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.
(04/06 13:36:46) 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.
(04/06 13:37:00) 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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.
(04/06 13:37:24) shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, ’tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(04/06 13:37:45) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(04/06 13:37:56) 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 so it must be added to the body of the text.
(04/06 13:38:25) shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED!
(04/06 13:38:41) shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI mail so they were unable to be added.
(04/06 13:38:54) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to Story Night times.
(04/06 13:39:18) shokhootahn Rehn: (when he is on-line)
(04/06 13:39:26) shokhootahn Rehn: Again, Story Night – Europe will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of today’s AGM or at 14:00 KI time, whichever is later.
(04/06 13:39:42) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(04/06 13:10:16)Minasunda: 2. — keep the stage free for the dancers and be punctual and link to tsogal before the show starts. In the Forum you can see a picture with the marked stage.

(04/06 13:10:30)Minasunda: 3. — Me and the dancers will be very busy during the show.

(04/06 13:10:44)Minasunda: If anyone has questions about the stream or anything else – I’m sure the questions will come – then it would be nice to have someone who answer those questions.

(04/06 13:11:00)Minasunda: Someone voluntarily? please let me know. :))

(04/06 13:11:12)Minasunda: 4. — The dance group will have to do some rehearsals. I know, it is very tempting to watch us 🙂 🙂 🙂

(04/06 13:11:26)Minasunda: But remember, then you spoil yourself the surprise. Be patient until the show 🙂 🙂 It will be worth it.

(04/06 13:11:40)Minasunda: So if you see Mir-O-Bot in Tsogal with 5 or more people and you do not want to spoil the surprise, then DO NOT come to Mir-O-Bot :)))

(04/06 13:11:56)Minasunda: But if it still has to be, then please keep quiet and do not use magic commands to not disturb.

(04/06 13:12:07)Minasunda: ……And….. keep for you what you see. ;))))))

(04/06 13:14:15)rarified: Shorah, all!

(04/06 13:14:43)rarified: I wanted to give a quick update on progress in the OU world towards

(04/06 13:14:59)rarified: moving Fan Content along.

(04/06 13:15:21)rarified: As I announced last AGM, I’ve been able to restore the proper behavior of

(04/06 13:15:43)rarified: the basic Minkata shard, and people have not found problems there over the last few weeks.

(04/06 13:16:00)rarified: This month I’ve been working hard to deploy what I’m calling Minkata Alpha.

(04/06 13:16:25)rarified: This is the shard that a particular Fan Content item will appear when it becomes

(04/06 13:16:31)rarified: elegible for testing.

(04/06 13:16:48)rarified: Bringing up the shard has required some changes (fixes) to the game client, as well

(04/06 13:16:54)rarified: as bringing up a second server.

(04/06 13:17:17)rarified: I want to give our testers my appreciation for keeping up on spotting problems

(04/06 13:17:28)rarified: with the Alpha shard, and behavior of the client.

(04/06 13:17:52)rarified: There is no Fan Content there … yet. But I am “This Close” ™ to asking Doobes

(04/06 13:18:07)rarified: for a current copy of his Pub, to start working with that.

(04/06 13:18:24)rarified: There are also a couple of changes that have to be brought over from the H’Uru

(04/06 13:18:44)rarified: client code base in order to use content generated with the current Korman.

(04/06 13:19:10)rarified: These are all happening behind the scenes, so to speak. But I am starting to get

(04/06 13:19:37)rarified: optimistic about announcing a wide-open test on Minkata Alpha soon.

(04/06 13:20:01)rarified: Once we have got Fan Content working there, we will be working on a process for

(04/06 13:20:44)My.St’ro: That’s awesome!

(04/06 13:20:46)rarified: I do think that Doobes’ pub won’t be the first item, our past discussions with Cyan

(04/06 13:20:55)TT101: Shorah everyone :))

(04/06 13:21:13)rarified: indicated they would like to have a bridge (i.e. Fan Nexus) in place first.

(04/06 13:21:32)rarified: But there are several projects in that category either complete or almost so.

(04/06 13:21:41)rarified: So… stay tuned!

(04/06 13:21:50)rarified: That’s it from me.

(04/06 13:22:27)Boywhith: I hope we will have fan content here soon!!!

(04/06 13:22:43)Korov’ev: Time for some Mysterium and Cyan news…

(04/06 13:22:52)Korov’ev: The Myst e-Book novels and the Riven digital map rewards for Writer’s tier backers have not yet been released, and there’s no estimate of when yet.

(04/06 13:23:05)Korov’ev: Also, the Fangamer coupon has been extended: you now have until April 30th to use it. Fangamer also confirms new items will be available soon.

(04/06 13:23:23)Korov’ev: Now, for the news most of you are expecting: the Kickstarter for Firmament is open!

(04/06 13:23:31)Korov’ev: https://firmamentgame.com/

(04/06 13:24:02)Korov’ev: Currently it’s 45% funded, but the more funds it gets the better, so if you haven’t backed it yet, it’s time!

(04/06 13:24:19)Korov’ev: If you enjoy anxiety, you can see a live projection here: http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/1252280491/firmament/

(04/06 13:24:36)Korov’ev: As a clarification, while the game is developed for VR first, it will work fine as a classic PC game too.

(04/06 13:24:40)rarified reaches for oxygen

(04/06 13:24:53)Korov’ev: Unfortunately, support for macOS is not planned for the Kickstarter. Cyan is working on it, but for now it will be for Windows only.

(04/06 13:25:05)Korov’ev: The release is currently planned to be on Steam, GOG, Viveport, and Oculus Store.

(04/06 13:25:07)BIG thumbs down from R0’JETHHE

(04/06 13:25:22)Korov’ev: By the way, if you were at PAX East or Indie MegaBooth, Cyan showcased Firmament and ZED there, respectively.

(04/06 13:25:36)Korov’ev: Speaking of Kickstarters: if you backed The Five Cores, the soundtrack of the game will be composed by Alain Pachins, aka Turjan Aylahn!

(04/06 13:26:06)Korov’ev: For Mysterium, registration and hotel reservations are now open!

(04/06 13:26:23)Korov’ev: The location will be the Ruby River Hotel in downtown Spokane, in walking distance of the downtown core and Riverfront Park, and overlooks the Spokane River.

(04/06 13:26:43)Korov’ev: The Committee has secured a rate of $119/night for one-bed rooms and $129/night for two-bed rooms (plus tax).

(04/06 13:26:49)Korov’ev: https://mysterium.net/location/

(04/06 13:27:01)Korov’ev: After Russell Brower, the second special guest will be…

(04/06 13:27:16)Korov’ev: ASCAP award-winning, BAFTA nominated, best known for his video game scores (as in Call of Duty: Black Ops, Mass Effect, and more to the point, Myst III and IV).

(04/06 13:30:00)Korov’ev: And now, we have an update on the D’ni Classes and Story Night, from Instructor Rehn!

(04/06 13:30:11)Emor D’ni Lap applauds

(04/06 13:31:03)shokhootahn Rehn: I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(04/06 13:31:13)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(04/06 13:31:33)shokhootahn Rehn: On the surface, I am in the process of moving. As a result there will not be any daytime classes until further notice. They *should* be able to return sometime in June.

(04/06 13:32:09)shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public. I will announce the availability of classes on the Hood imager when they are ready to resume.

(04/06 13:33:56)shokhootahn Rehn: Thre are two more students who have completed their classes and submitted their final exams. Unfortunately, due to the afore-mentioned surface ussues, I have not been able to grade them, as yet. I will get to them as soon as possible so please be patient. 🙂

(04/06 13:34:09)shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(04/06 13:34:18)Korov’ev: none in queue

(04/06 13:34:31)shokhootahn Rehn: kk

(04/06 13:34:34)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(04/06 13:34:44)shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.

(04/06 13:34:58)shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be continuing the events from The Book of Atrus.

(04/06 13:35:35)shokhootahn Rehn: Please note: due to Easter weekend there will be no Story Night – Europe on April 20. Story Night – Europe will resume on April 27… barring any last-minute travel plans. The actual move will be towards the end of the month so there may or may not be a story on April 27. You can always check the left imager in the Hood, the bots, or the forums… though, I don’t always remember to post updates in the forums.

(04/06 13:35:46)shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in The Book of D’ni.

(04/06 13:36:30)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(04/06 13:36:46)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.

(04/06 13:37:00)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.

(04/06 13:37:24)shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, ’tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(04/06 13:37:45)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(04/06 13:37:56)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(04/06 13:38:25)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED!

(04/06 13:38:41)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI mail so they were unable to be added.

(04/06 13:38:54)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to Story Night times.

(04/06 13:39:18)shokhootahn Rehn: (when he is on-line)

(04/06 13:39:26)shokhootahn Rehn: Again, Story Night – Europe will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of today’s AGM or at 14:00 KI time, whichever is later.

(04/06 13:39:42)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(04/06 13:39:46)shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(04/06 13:39:48)R0’JETHHE salutes

(03/02 13:02:59)Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:

(03/02 13:03:05)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(03/02 13:03:05)RowanF: Alright then

(03/02 13:03:17)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(03/02 13:03:27)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(03/02 13:03:35)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(03/02 13:03:53)Korov’ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers’ site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(03/02 13:04:02)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(03/02 13:04:10)Korov’ev: Before the speaker session, do you know there’s a new clock-maker in town?

(03/02 13:04:16)Korov’ev: Explorer Steven Jacks has released a live D’ni clock and calendar here:

(03/02 13:04:23)Korov’ev: http://stevenjacks.com/dni-clock/ (the rest of his site is interesting too!)

(03/02 13:12:01)Emor D’ni Lap: But Wait!

(03/02 13:12:09)axenna waits

(03/02 13:12:15)Christian Walther asks Is it MORE yet?

(03/02 13:12:17)Korov’ev: For the International Women’s Day, there will be music!

(03/02 13:12:23)axenna: Oooo!

(03/02 13:12:28)Doobes: Sweet!

(03/02 13:12:34)Korov’ev: Let`s hear about it from Max!

(03/02 13:12:39)Max: (next to be shot…)

(03/02 13:12:43)SAL: Yea for the women

(03/02 13:13:11)Max: (coughs) SOOO… Here’s some brief Info regarding the International Women’s Day on March 8th…

(03/02 13:13:28)Max: WE’VE held an event on IWD every year for quite some time now. Always with a lot of music. With or by female singers, artist or groups etc. So also this year when March 8th happens to be a Friday.

(03/02 13:13:45)Max: AS THE schedule stands atm. we start at 12:00 KI Time on Friday… And so far the last part is running till 17:00 at least. But I’d guess we will add some more things to that. So the ending time is still very open.

(03/02 13:14:04)Max: THE locations for the different parts are still under discussion and TBD / To Be Decided… We might be utilizing the Bots for relocation…

(03/02 13:14:07)KittyRenee: network error booted me

(03/02 13:14:24)jtrigg leans left

(03/02 13:14:27)Rabbit leans right

(03/02 13:14:29)Max: ALSO… me, myself & I might not be doing any own streams this time… BUT… Ghaelen, the MystiTech Prod. team and a few more are also onboard in this…. Alan (DJ) and Fil has said they can take Requests, and perhaps play some…

(03/02 13:14:56)Max: AND if wondering why start already at 12:00 KI Time?! We in EU are in the evening and towards night at that time! And it’s very, very hard to find anybody in other timezones who’d wish to be involed!… BUT, I’d also would like emphasis, that all already involved… kept an eye on the Forum topic for any changes and PM’s.

(03/02 13:15:31)Max: BUT IF YOU would like to contribute in any way, you’re most welcome to do so! And you could on the spot be added to the end of the shedule…

(03/02 13:15:59)Max: SO there’s a Topic on MOULa Forums about this. More specifc on the times and the different parts of the events. We also have a KI Mail to hand out, that will be kept updated, with some of the Main Info. You can PM me (Max) or Mina or Melis or Ro for that one. They should have the Info…

(03/02 13:16:23)Max: so… that’s how it is atm… any questions?

(03/02 13:16:40)Korov’ev: none in queue. any?

(03/02 13:16:44)RowanF: nO I don’t think so

(03/02 13:16:50)Korov’ev: Thank you Max!

(03/02 13:17:00)Max: nope… ? great.. thank you and hope to see yous then

(03/02 13:17:04)Max bows

(03/02 13:17:06)Emor D’ni Lap applauds

(03/02 13:17:10)Doobes: Gotta love the event planners. Keeping the party going. 🙂

(03/02 13:17:21)Korov’ev: And now, let’s move to the topic of… fan content!

(03/02 13:17:27)axenna: Yessss

(03/02 13:17:35)Korov’ev: First, we have (again!) some news from the Minkata shard…

(03/02 13:17:40)MindWalker gets excited

(03/02 13:17:50)Doobes: Fan content? Is that a thing? 😛

(03/02 13:17:53)Korov’ev: Let’s welcome rarified!

(03/02 13:17:54)Doobes smirks

(03/02 13:18:03)rarified waves hello

(03/02 13:18:09)rarified: Shorah all!

(03/02 13:18:16)KittyRenee: shorah

(03/02 13:18:18)Rabbit thumps her hind feet

(03/02 13:18:20)rarified: I have a brief confession.

(03/02 13:18:21)SAL: Shorah

(03/02 13:18:26)Ro”Jethhe: Thanks for getting the Minkata Shard back online.

(03/02 13:18:31)axenna: Shorah rarified

(03/02 13:18:32)rarified: Last AGM I was a bit of a grouchy Bahro.

(03/02 13:18:38)Rabbit starts to laugh

(03/02 13:18:39)KittyRenee: lol

(03/02 13:18:43)RowanF: Lol

(03/02 13:18:43)TGMChrist: lol

(03/02 13:18:46)rarified: This time things are quite a bit better.

(03/02 13:18:46)Doobes: Eh, it happens.

(03/02 13:18:47)kathrynid laughs

(03/02 13:18:49)axenna: Its okay, we are all grouchy Bahro sometimes

(03/02 13:19:05)Doobes sees himself as a grouchy Esher…with more hair

(03/02 13:19:06)SAL: Not me, i am always that way

(03/02 13:19:08)rarified: I’m happy to tell you that we’ve found and fixed the problems with the Minkata shard!

(03/02 13:19:22)Doobes: Woot!

(03/02 13:19:32)rarified: I want to thank each and all of the testers who were patient with my constant requests

(03/02 13:19:52)rarified: to “try it again” during the process. It was a bit drawn out, but we got there.

(03/02 13:20:13)KittyRenee: any content in the Minkata shard thats not in UAM or TOC?

(03/02 13:20:23)rarified: What does that mean? We still have a couple of fixes staged on Minkata for sending

(03/02 13:20:40)rarified: to Cyan, and now can work to push them out. Soon ™.

(03/02 13:20:43)Doobes: Kitty, direct questions to Korov’ev via PM and he’ll get to them.

(03/02 13:20:51)Rabbit roars with laughter

(03/02 13:21:03)PodHopper: me grins

(03/02 13:21:16)rarified: Second, I’ve found the network message exchange between client and server on the MOSS

(03/02 13:21:33)SAL: Seaweed

(03/02 13:21:38)rarified: server that Minkata runs that will enable me to bring up Minkata-alpha, the shard planned for

(03/02 13:21:43)rarified: testing Fan Content!

(03/02 13:21:58)Doobes: Niiiice!

(03/02 13:22:02)axenna: Oooooo!!!

(03/02 13:22:04)rarified: I still have some decisions on the exact coding in MOSS to do, so it’s not there yet,

(03/02 13:22:13)rarified: but again, “Soon”. 😉

(03/02 13:22:19)PodHopper: yup

(03/02 13:22:40)rarified: I also am working with some of my DB friends to make the use of Minkata-alpha

(03/02 13:22:49)rarified: as seamless as possible to existing Minkata users.

(03/02 13:23:14)rarified: I’m hoping that when we get it running, you will see the same state you had in Minkata

(03/02 13:23:29)rarified: in Minkata-alpha (i.e. avatars, accomplishments, etc).

(03/02 13:23:56)rarified: In the best possible worlds, Minkata-alpha will follow thing you change in Minkata

(03/02 13:24:09)Rabbit: oooooo

(03/02 13:24:11)rarified: every time you switch back and forth. But things you change in Minkata-alpha will stay

(03/02 13:24:28)rarified: there, until we need to do a vault reset. At that time Minkata-alpha will become a copy

(03/02 13:24:36)rarified: of Minkata at that moment.

(03/02 13:24:53)axenna: I dont have that shard. may be time to change that

(03/02 13:24:55)rarified: So you won’t need to sign up for a new accont on Minkata-alpha, to be able to play.

(03/02 13:25:02)Rabbit: yep

(03/02 13:25:05)kathrynid: oK

(03/02 13:25:17)SAL: Active now

(03/02 13:25:25)rarified: There will be a small batch file you pick up from the OpenUru Foundry website that

(03/02 13:25:51)rarified: allows you to switch your existing Minkata files directly to Minkata-alpha and back,

(03/02 13:26:07)rarified: so you won’t have to go through a complete install again.

(03/02 13:26:22)rarified: Now, to set expectations about the fan content.

(03/02 13:26:42)rarified: I *know* that the current MOULa client (and Minkata client) still crash when attemptiung

(03/02 13:27:00)rarified: to load a fan age. The first goal of Minkata-alpha will be to make the client and content

(03/02 13:27:18)rarified: available to the fan creators as well as programmers willing to help debug the problem.

(03/02 13:27:36)rarified: So, at first, you won’t likely be able to get into a fan age.

(03/02 13:27:58)rarified: But as we make progress, a fan age will start to work.

(03/02 13:28:11)Adam {Hoikas} idly notes he has already told rarified the problem

(03/02 13:28:24)rarified: We still don’t have a fan nexus ready for testing, so the initial Minkata-alpha client will

(03/02 13:28:44)rarified: be an internal client that has the commands to load an age by the back doors.

(03/02 13:29:08)rarified: I’m still hoping to use Doobes’ age as the initial test age, but if that turns out to be

(03/02 13:29:28)rarified: too complex , we’ll reset and use a simple age. Several authors have come forward

(03/02 13:29:40)Doobes: I figure given the amount of junk in that Pub, it’d be a good stress test. 😛

(03/02 13:29:52)rarified: to volunteer making simple ages, such as an empty box that you can get trapped in 😀

(03/02 13:30:00)rarified: We will see.

(03/02 13:30:21)rarified: Keep up on the Minkata shard topic on the OpenUru forums. http://forums.openuru.org

(03/02 13:30:46)rarified: I’m thinking that in about two weeks I’ll be able to announce an opening of Minkata-alpha

(03/02 13:30:52)rarified: if all goes well.

(03/02 13:31:13)SAL is amazed!

(03/02 13:31:17)rarified: And of course, once we successfully get an age working with the CWE/MOULa client, we

(03/02 13:31:32)Thumbs up from SAL

(03/02 13:31:38)rarified: need to enlist Cyan to start developing the process to move ages to MOULa.

(03/02 13:31:49)rarified: And we’ll need to get that Fan Nexus running.

(03/02 13:31:50)jtrigg: i dips me lid to your erudition!

(03/02 13:31:56)Ro”Jethhe holds his breath.

(03/02 13:32:02)rarified: But … theres PROGRESS!

(03/02 13:32:11)rarified: That’s it for now. Questions?

(03/02 13:32:20)Korov’ev: Our next question is from JJ_Wolf75.

(03/02 13:32:20)Korov’ev: [JJ_Wolf75] What does MOSS stands for?

(03/02 13:32:20)axenna: Thats some good wordsmithing, trigg.

(03/02 13:32:28)SAL thanks you

(03/02 13:32:40)SAL: Seaweed

(03/02 13:32:41)jtrigg: Thanks Guvnor!

(03/02 13:32:47)rarified: MOSS is the Myst-online Open Source Server. It is a game server that was written

(03/02 13:32:48)TT101: What do you mean by ‘progress’?

(03/02 13:33:08)rarified: by fans and it’s release coincided with the open source release of the game client.

(03/02 13:33:29)rarified: I use it on Minkata because it was developed entirely by reverse engineering the

(03/02 13:33:53)rarified: official MOUL network protocol, and is the most faithful (IMHO) server that matches the

(03/02 13:34:02)rarified: official game server from Cyan.

(03/02 13:34:22)Korov’ev: Our next question is from KittyRenee.

(03/02 13:34:22)Korov’ev: [KittyRenee] please, where to find Minkata shard?

(03/02 13:34:49)rarified: There is a signup page on the “Foundry” OpenUru web page. http://foundry.openuru.org

(03/02 13:35:10)Korov’ev: An off-the-queue question: can you explain the difference between a Vault reset and a Vault wipe?

(03/02 13:35:44)Emor D’ni Lap: many here do not know what the Vault represents

(03/02 13:35:49)rarified: Hmmm, good question. Usually we talk about a “Vault Wipe”, which means the whole server

(03/02 13:35:59)Ro”Jethhe groans

(03/02 13:36:09)rarified: is reset, and all accounts, avatars, and accomplishments are lost.

(03/02 13:36:15)Ro”Jethhe cries

(03/02 13:36:22)Ro”Jethhe sneezes

(03/02 13:36:30)rarified: This happens only during a catastrophy when the database has been destroyed.

(03/02 13:36:31)kathrynid gasps

(03/02 13:36:34)Adam {Hoikas}: (there is no difference)

(03/02 13:36:37)rarified: Thankfully, very rare.

(03/02 13:36:51)SAL cringes

(03/02 13:36:58)rarified: A “Vault Reset” in the context of Minkata and Minkata-alpha is where the Minkata-alpha

(03/02 13:37:00)Korov’ev: but expected on a testing shard

(03/02 13:37:14)Ro”Jethhe: So basicly just what happened in Sept. of 2014?

(03/02 13:37:15)rarified: vault is reset to exactly match the contents of the Minkata shard.

(03/02 13:37:38)Atuna Minkata: wipe = erasure

(03/02 13:37:38)rarified: This will happen when we find corruption in the database for Minkata-alpha, or when

(03/02 13:37:41)SAL: No backup

(03/02 13:37:50)axenna: What a scary thought

(03/02 13:37:52)rarified: we change which age is being offered on Minkata-alpha.

(03/02 13:37:54)Ro”Jethhe is sorta bummed…

(03/02 13:38:07)Korov’ev: Our next question is from kathrynid.

(03/02 13:38:08)Korov’ev: [kathrynid] what exactly is Minkata-Alpha? Is it like an online site or something?

(03/02 13:38:11)SAL: As it goe

(03/02 13:38:14)rarified: You just will lose the accomplishments you reached on -alpha

(03/02 13:38:16)Doobes: Eh, if it’s meant for testing, breaking stuff can be a good thing…if we learn something from it. 😉

(03/02 13:38:17)SAL: Goes

(03/02 13:38:24)Atuna Minkata: ‘you mean, “with a cloth?”‘

(03/02 13:38:53)rarified: And to elaborate, the Vault contains all of the information about you and your avatars on that

(03/02 13:39:07)rarified: shard. Your clothes, your ages, etc.

(03/02 13:39:15)Korov’ev: I think further questions can be answered later 🙂

(03/02 13:39:33)Korov’ev: Thank you rarified!

(03/02 13:39:34)jtrigg: Thou shalt always LABUI thy disc ( Ericcsson PABX command Local Admin Back-Up Initiate)

(03/02 13:39:43)rarified: Ok, pm me on the MOUL forums with questions!

(03/02 13:39:48)bella1: thank you rarified

(03/02 13:39:50)Emor D’ni Lap thanks rarified for putting in the time for all of us

(03/02 13:40:04)Mirphak: Thank you rarified

(03/02 13:40:10)Korov’ev: And speaking of fan Ages, we have a somewhat prolific Writer with us:

(03/02 13:40:12)axenna: Thankya rarified

(03/02 13:40:16)axenna: Ooooo

(03/02 13:40:21)Korov’ev: Let’s welcome Doobes!

(03/02 13:40:30)axenna welcomes Doobes

(03/02 13:40:31)KittyRenee: yes, thank you

(03/02 13:40:34)SAL: Yep, doobes…..

(03/02 13:40:43)Emor D’ni Lap applauds the Doob

(03/02 13:40:43)Doobes: Shorah, fellow explorers and D’ni enthusiasts!

(03/02 13:40:53)KittyRenee: shorah

(03/02 13:40:56)Doobes: I’m back with a quick update of how things are going with the Ages of Doobes ™…specifically, one of the five I’m intending to release soon.

(03/02 13:41:16)Doobes: In this case, Veelay Tsahvahn, aka the memorial Age, is nearly complete…and just recently, one big piece of the Age was added!

(03/02 13:41:34)Doobes: For the first time ever, one of my Ages will feature original music…courtesy of Mystler!

(03/02 13:41:53)Doobes: For those who aren’t aware, Mystler is the admin of the popular Open Cave shard, but not only that, he’s also a very talented musician, and the score he created for Veelay is yet another excellent example.

(03/02 13:42:28)Doobes: The track, appropriately titled “House of Reminiscence”, captures exactly what I was going for with the Age as far as tone. All it took was a WIP version of the Age to run around in and some choice words and Mystler…in just a couple of days, I might add…created something very special.

(03/02 13:42:29)axenna: Oooooo!

(03/02 13:42:42)Doobes: He really did an amazing job on it, and I’m hopeful he’ll be up for more collaborations with me in the future.

(03/02 13:42:43)axenna: Thats awesome1

(03/02 13:42:45)Tweek: Sweet!

(03/02 13:42:53)Korov’ev: music!

(03/02 13:42:58)Doobes: I’m still debating whether to release the track ahead of the Age itself (I hate to tie an artist’s hands), but while I’m deciding, you can have a listen to Mystler’s other work on his website, https://www.mystler.eu.

(03/02 13:43:14)Doobes: There, you’ll find both of the albums he has released so far: “The Great Traverse” (his first) and the most recent “Seraphim: The Ufumuk Invasion”, the latter of which is a soundtrack to an original sci-fi universe of his creation.

(03/02 13:43:31)Doobes: The accompanying digital booklet also features artwork by another talented artist from the cavern: Tweek!

(03/02 13:43:38)Doobes nods to Tweek

(03/02 13:43:51)Tweek: >.>

(03/02 13:43:56)Doobes: So! While you wait for Veelay Tsahvahn’s release…along with the revamped Pub, Chiso Preniv, The Vale, and Kotsahvosahn…give his other work a listen and, if you like, send him a note about what you think!

(03/02 13:44:14)Doobes: The greatest thing we artists can get is constructive feedback. In fact, Mystler even gave me some for Veelay that’ll make the Age even better. 😀

(03/02 13:44:40)Doobes: On a related but sadder note, you may have heard about the passing of Jeff Zandi, a friend of the Miller brothers and inspiration for the character you meet sitting by the Airstream up on the surface by the cleft.

(03/02 13:45:10)Doobes: I’ve added an entry for him into the Age’s in-game journals along with the others. Note that I take writing submissions if anyone wants to say a little something about any of the explorers who have passed and have it added to the journals for all to read.

(03/02 13:45:39)Korov’ev: You can hear his actual voice in two unused clips in the MOULa sfx folder: clftEdog.ogg and clftEdog02.ogg

(03/02 13:45:48)Korov’ev: And read some bio here: http://tysmtgblog.blogspot.com/2019/02/jeff-zandi-and-texas-magic-hall-of-fame.html

(03/02 13:45:58)Doobes: Ah, nice. Thanks, Kor.

(03/02 13:46:07)Doobes: If you have such a submission, be sure to mention who it’s for and send it to agesofdoobes@gmail.com. It’ll be added, unedited, to the corresponding book entry for the person in question. You can write as little or as much as you’d like (within reason).

(03/02 13:46:23)Doobes: If there happens to be a name missing you would like added, I can do that too if provided some details about the person.

(03/02 13:46:39)Doobes: While these journals will be semi-regularly updated depending on how shard owners would like to handle things, the best way to get things added right away is to visit the In Memoriam wiki page (http://wiki.openuru.org/index.php?title=In_Memoriam).

(03/02 13:46:58)Doobes: If you sign up there, you can edit the wiki to add and edit things, and anything added will eventually also be put into Veelay’s in-game books as well.

(03/02 13:47:11)Tweek: Kor> Those Edog clips aren’t Zandi’s real voice, those clips are voiced by Edog iirc.

(03/02 13:47:21)Doobes: As with the other Ages, I’m hoping to release them near simultaneously on Gehn Shard, The Open Cave, Deep Island and offline URU…then eventually Minkata Shard (either or) and finally MOULa.

(03/02 13:47:25)KittyRenee: I’m assuming Zandi’s name has been added to the scrolling memorial in the damaged underground Pub in D’ni?

(03/02 13:47:40)Tweek: I believe so Kitty.

(03/02 13:47:41)Rabbit: yes it has

(03/02 13:47:47)Ro”Jethhe: His name has been added.

(03/02 13:47:51)KittyRenee: thanks

(03/02 13:47:52)Doobes: Cyan is usually pretty good about that. 🙂

(03/02 13:47:56)Doobes: To keep up with Veelay and all of my work, you can visit my site, http://agesofdoobes.wordpress.com, and my Facebook pages at http://www.facebook.com/agesofdoobes/.

(03/02 13:48:04)bella1: ty

(03/02 13:48:06)Doobes: With all that in mind, any questions?

(03/02 13:48:34)Rabbit: I sent one

(03/02 13:48:38)SAL thanks you

(03/02 13:48:46)Korov’ev: Rabbit asks if you’re serious about pets, she just lost one of her rab bits

(03/02 13:49:08)bella1: aww Rabbit so sorry

(03/02 13:49:13)Rabbit: I saw your facebook post about pets

(03/02 13:49:18)Ro”Jethhe says DOH!

(03/02 13:49:19)Doobes: Ah, she may be referring to my latest post of FB. I added a little cat statue for a pet I lost a little over a year ago.

(03/02 13:49:23)SAL: Aw the one that would not eat??

(03/02 13:49:29)Doobes: And yes, Rabbit, I’m sorry to hear that. :/

(03/02 13:49:31)Rabbit: different one

(03/02 13:49:40)Rabbit cries

(03/02 13:49:50)RowanF: That is sad!

(03/02 13:49:56)SAL: Sorry bout that

(03/02 13:50:06)axenna is sad for Rabbit 🙁

(03/02 13:50:07)Doobes: While it IS a cat statue, it’s meant to symbolize any pet, as they can be just as important to us as their human counterparts. It’s not as big a part of the Age, but I wanted to add a little something for them too.

(03/02 13:50:13)KittyRenee: sorry about your fur baby, Rabbit

(03/02 13:50:21)axenna: I love that Doobes, thats super sweet

(03/02 13:50:22)RowanF: Ya!

(03/02 13:50:46)Doobes: That really is the purpose of the Age…a place to gather and mourn those we’ve lost, either here from the cavern or just from life in general.

(03/02 13:51:05)bella1 agrees

(03/02 13:51:08)Korov’ev: Thank you Doobes!

(03/02 13:51:12)Doobes bows

(03/02 13:51:13)KittyRenee: Doobes, you ol’ softie

(03/02 13:51:19)SAL thanks you

(03/02 13:51:22)Mirphak: Thank you Doobes

(03/02 13:51:29)Emor D’ni Lap applauds

(03/02 13:51:35)Korov’ev: And we also have a quick update from Tweek!

(03/02 13:51:42)kathrynid applaud

(03/02 13:51:44)Doobes: Tweeeeek!

(03/02 13:52:28)SAL: I will be visiting the chatlog often, cannot remember all this stuff

(03/02 13:52:36)Tweek: So just a reminder to anyone who was interested. Close off date for submissions for Eder Fahsee is the 9th of March.

(03/02 13:52:49)Tweek: If you wish to submit some writing for the Age you can do so here: http://dniexplorer.com/fahsee

(03/02 13:53:12)Tweek: To those of you who have submitted something, thank you. I have recieved your submissions.

(03/02 13:53:14)KittyRenee: wht is Eder Fahsee, please?

(03/02 13:53:25)Doobes: Tweek’s fan Age, Kitty.

(03/02 13:53:40)Tweek: Eder Fahsee is an Age I wrote/built to celebrate Myst’s 25th Anniversary.

(03/02 13:53:43)KittyRenee: thanks. which shard?

(03/02 13:53:50)KittyRenee: cool!

(03/02 13:53:51)Doobes: Shhhh…we’re getting there, Kitty. 😉

(03/02 13:53:58)KittyRenee: sorry lol

(03/02 13:54:03)Ro”Jethhe: Drum Roll…

(03/02 13:54:12)Korov’ev: I`m here for the questions…

(03/02 13:54:33)SAL points

(03/02 13:54:37)Tweek: I’m collecting submissions from fans regarding their first experiences with Myst and the impact it’s had on them. Which will be added to the library within the Age itself.

(03/02 13:54:50)kathrynid: Wow cool

(03/02 13:55:00)Tweek: The Age isn’t released yet, but I’ll be putting it out there for people to add to their shards if they so wish.

(03/02 13:55:22)Tweek: Any questions?

(03/02 13:55:59)Korov’ev: which shards are you planning to release it on?

(03/02 13:56:56)Tweek: Gehn is most likely if Hoikas is interested. I’ll be putting a UruCC version out on Beneath so I expect the shards that run the older Uru version may use it.

(03/02 13:57:09)Tweek: It really depends on who wants it on their shards really.

(03/02 13:57:29)Tweek: I would like to get it onto this Shard in the future when we’re at that point.

(03/02 13:57:46)radioflux: Cyan should want it on their shard 😉

(03/02 13:57:50)Adam {Hoikas}: I give it a high probability of arriving on Gehn. Maybe then I can be bothered to package up all these QOL fixes lying around…

(03/02 13:57:55)Korov’ev: I bet diafero will want it 😉

(03/02 13:58:22)Doobes: We shall throw content at diafero until he doesn’t. 😛

(03/02 13:58:29)Tweek: lol

(03/02 13:58:33)Dulcamara: Lol

(03/02 13:58:33)Korov’ev: he he

(03/02 13:58:40)Tweek: Any other questions?

(03/02 13:58:45)vid: Would you say that any day after March 9th will be too late?

(03/02 13:58:55)jtrigg: He’ll probably duck!

(03/02 13:59:09)Tweek: Depends how far after march 9th.

(03/02 13:59:25)vid: Mmm. So not canon yet.

(03/02 13:59:28)vid sits quietly

(03/02 13:59:32)jtrigg: beware the Ides of March

(03/02 13:59:47)Korov’ev: Thank you Tweek!

(03/02 13:59:49)axenna: Amen

(03/02 13:59:49)Tweek: I’m hoping to get the submissions in the Age before release so adding them afterwords is something I’d rather not do.

(03/02 13:59:57)KittyRenee: hi, Dulce!

(03/02 14:00:03)Tweek: But then given Korman’s journal improvements it’s not out of the question

(03/02 14:00:07)Tweek: Thanks for your time

(03/02 14:00:09)bella1: thank you Tweek!

(03/02 14:00:16)Doobes: Oh, they’re a breeze now, Tweek. I love it.

(03/02 14:00:27)Korov’ev: And now, something about fan content of another kind…

(03/02 14:00:36)Korov’ev: Morgan, come here!

(03/02 14:00:38)bella1 sends you my chili

(03/02 14:00:42)Korov’ev is a bit puzzled…

(03/02 14:00:42)Korov’ev: Wait, aren’t you a fictional character?

(03/02 14:00:47)MorganLapahie waves hello

(03/02 14:00:50)axenna: Im hungry

(03/02 14:00:53)Ro”Jethhe waves hello

(03/02 14:00:55)Mirphak: lol

(03/02 14:01:09)MorganLapahie: A year ago, after the 2018 March AGM, several of you “volunteered” to let Mir-o-bot transport you to the MystiTech neighbourhood to act as extras in a flashback scene for The Lost Art.

(03/02 14:01:24)MorganLapahie: That scene, filmed by Joanne Fisher and Kayara, is coming up in Episode 9. I managed to persuade Korov’ev and Mirphak to play the parts of Kodama and Laxman.

(03/02 14:01:26)Rabbit: yep!

(03/02 14:01:31)axenna: Ooooo!

(03/02 14:01:38)MorganLapahie: Amazingly they weren’t put off by the technical issues we had that night, for they have been with us ever since. And not only as avatar operators. Korov’ev has become both our main photographer and one of our editors.

(03/02 14:01:43)Korov’ev bows

(03/02 14:01:59)MorganLapahie: As for Mirphak, not only has he deputised several of us as ancillary bots, he has developed some stunning set lighting. So much so that we ended up re-filming several scenes!

(03/02 14:02:03)Rabbit: Yeah!!! Korov’ev

(03/02 14:02:11)Korov’ev: One thing that has transformed filming is the latest version of the H’uru client created by the Guild of Writers. This version has KI commands that allow us to save the costumes and other parameters of all our main characters.

(03/02 14:02:12)axenna: You guys are amazing

(03/02 14:02:22)Rabbit: yeah Mirphak!

(03/02 14:02:26)Korov’ev: Which means that if someone should crash in the middle of a shoot we can have other avatars on standby that can be properly dressed and made up with a simple KI command.

(03/02 14:02:38)Korov’ev: oops!

(03/02 14:02:39)Doobes: Understudies!

(03/02 14:02:41)Rabbit: cool!

(03/02 14:02:43)Doobes: Oh dear.

(03/02 14:02:48)Korov’ev: If you have seen Episode 6, you will have seen two of the new sets created for us by Dulcamara and Doobes.

(03/02 14:02:54)Mirphak: morgan crashed…

(03/02 14:02:56)RowanF: Hey I am leaveing the meeting (The whole game for today!) Bye!

(03/02 14:03:05)Korov’ev: Morgaaaan!

(03/02 14:03:07)Rabbit: bye

(03/02 14:03:09)Christian Walther: Just dress up as Morgan, Kor.

(03/02 14:03:19)axenna: Bye Rowan

(03/02 14:03:32)Korov’ev: A third set is coming up in episode 8, and just recently Dulcamara has started work on something that will appear at the start of Season Three.

(03/02 14:03:46)Doobes: Yay!

(03/02 14:03:56)SAL: Absolutely lost

(03/02 14:04:05)Rabbit: Yay Dulca!

(03/02 14:04:16)Dulcamara: :-)))

(03/02 14:04:24)Korov’ev: let`s see if we can rescue Morgan!

(03/02 14:04:29)Ro”Jethhe: I bet Dulca is making Alabaster even LARGER!

(03/02 14:04:36)Dulcamara: Looooooool

(03/02 14:04:40)KittyRenee: yep

(03/02 14:04:42)Rabbit: oh noooooeeeeees

(03/02 14:04:49)bella1: on nooooooooooooooo

(03/02 14:04:51)KittyRenee: lol

(03/02 14:04:52)bella1: 🙂

(03/02 14:04:58)Dulcamara: Only a new station

(03/02 14:05:07)Ro”Jethhe: Part 4?

(03/02 14:05:16)Dulcamara: 4 an 5

(03/02 14:05:22)jtrigg: I have absolutely no idea as to what is going on just now!

(03/02 14:05:23)Ro”Jethhe faints.

(03/02 14:05:25)Korov’ev: those bahro, playing tricks!

(03/02 14:05:26)PodHopper: omg

(03/02 14:05:30)axenna looks blank

(03/02 14:05:32)KittyRenee: WOW!

(03/02 14:05:35)Rabbit: four AND Five???? OMG

(03/02 14:05:39)Doobes blinks

(03/02 14:05:41)Ro”Jethhe: Good luck Hopper.

(03/02 14:05:44)MorganLapahie: We also want to thank both Larry and Tweek for some stunning graphics that will appear this season. It is such a joy to be able to draw on the creativity of so many of our community.

(03/02 14:05:47)PodHopper: thanks

(03/02 14:05:48)SAL: I am lost

(03/02 14:05:53)KittyRenee: Dulcamara doesn’t do anything small 🙂

(03/02 14:05:58)Rabbit: noooo

(03/02 14:06:02)axenna: Brb

(03/02 14:06:03)Ro”Jethhe: AMEN!

(03/02 14:06:09)Tweek: Damn that Tweek guy gets around 😐

(03/02 14:06:13)MorganLapahie: To that end I’d like to thank Minasunda, the NULP dancers, Mirphak and Yoda for inspiration. After the 25th Anniversary NULP dance show, Mirphak showed me one of the scripts he’d written to control the dancers.

(03/02 14:06:18)Doobes: Indeed he does.

(03/02 14:06:38)MorganLapahie: I think he might be regretting that now, because I’ve been pushing him to create several for The Lost Art! Ditto with Yoda and the light show he put on at Christmas.

(03/02 14:06:50)Rabbit starts to laugh

(03/02 14:06:54)Mirphak says DOH!

(03/02 14:07:02)MorganLapahie: Recently I asked him and Lu to come to a special-effects brainstorming session. There and then we conscripted Lu into playing a part for a scene we were filming, and the two of them have now joined our team.

(03/02 14:07:17)Rabbit roars with laughter

(03/02 14:07:20)MorganLapahie: Which means our film set has become truly multilingual: thank heaven for Google Translate!

(03/02 14:07:22)Ro”Jethhe: A lot of sleepless nights ahead for you Mir

(03/02 14:07:42)TGMChrist want a Bahro to protect him from the evil Bahro Nekisahloth who attack him at 2015.

(03/02 14:07:52)Mirphak: yes Ro

(03/02 14:08:04)Korov’ev: As to when future episodes will be released: episodes 7, 8 and 9 are completely filmed and edited, apart from a few pickups. The two things that are holding up their release are the music and the titles sequence.

(03/02 14:08:08)MorganLapahie: Back to you, Kor

(03/02 14:08:22)Korov’ev: We are also well along in the filming and editing of episodes 10 and 11. So please don’t lose interest. We continue to work on the project every weekend, and we hope you are all keen to see further revelations in The Lost Art story.

(03/02 14:08:34)MorganLapahie: yes

(03/02 14:08:34)Korov’ev: Any questions?

(03/02 14:09:16)SAL cowers

(03/02 14:09:31)MorganLapahie: So I guess that is all? Any questions?

(03/02 14:09:45)Rabbit: ALL??? lol

(03/02 14:09:59)MorganLapahie: And I only crashed once, that has to be a record for me!!

(03/02 14:10:05)Doobes laughs

(03/02 14:10:08)Dulcamara: Lol

(03/02 14:10:13)Christian Walther: Maybe you can explain what The Lost Art is for those who are not familiar.

(03/02 14:10:15)Korov’ev: I guess you can go back to the alternate reality 🙂

(03/02 14:10:18)

(03/02 14:10:28)SAL: Yes please do

(03/02 14:10:31)MorganLapahie: Oh, dear, where to start…

(03/02 14:10:46)Ro”Jethhe: Just like the TV Series ‘LOST’

(03/02 14:10:47)jtrigg: i wouold appreciate it Morgan

(03/02 14:10:52)SAL: Start with what the episodes are

(03/02 14:10:55)Korov’ev: it`s like a TV series, but on YouTube

(03/02 14:10:57)KittyRenee: Series of videos on YouTube called, The Lost Art

(03/02 14:10:59)MorganLapahie: It’s a series of videos that is set in 2040…

(03/02 14:11:36)MorganLapahie: It is best if you can go to YouTube and search for MystiTech Productions. Then watch the first video called Passing the Torch.

(03/02 14:12:05)Korov’ev: https://www.youtube.com/user/MystitechProductions

(03/02 14:12:10)TGMChrist: Still waiting of Episode 7

(03/02 14:12:11)MorganLapahie: That tells a bit of the backstory, leading up to the establishment of a DRC archives.

(03/02 14:12:17)Ro”Jethhe: It’s the MYST movie that never got off the ground.

(03/02 14:13:07)MorganLapahie: Thanks! Ro. When we first wrote to Cyan to ask permission to do this, we told them “Let’s see who gets their Myst story done first!”

(03/02 14:13:14)Korov’ev: more or less 🙂

(03/02 14:13:15)KittyRenee: TTYL for now

(03/02 14:13:20)BIG thumbs up from Ro”Jethhe

(03/02 14:13:36)Korov’ev: Our next question is from JJ_Wolf75.

(03/02 14:13:36)Korov’ev: [JJ_Wolf75] which shards do u use for The Lost Ark?

(03/02 14:13:42)Korov’ev: this one!

(03/02 14:14:02)JJ_Wolf75: ohh

(03/02 14:14:07)Adam {Hoikas}: HAX!

(03/02 14:14:09)Doobes: Using some hacks and magic tricks, of course.

(03/02 14:14:13)MorganLapahie: Yes, this one. But we film in private instances, because Mirphak is often doing magic

(03/02 14:14:13)Adam {Hoikas} throws CRT monitor

(03/02 14:14:21)Doobes: Good (or evil?) programming. Hehehe.

(03/02 14:14:29)MorganLapahie: Also, we have bahro characters, which you will have seen in Episode 6.

(03/02 14:14:33)Korov’ev: ev… I mean, good!

(03/02 14:14:41)JJ_Wolf75: ok thank you

(03/02 14:15:15)Korov’ev: For enquiries, you can send an email to enquiries[at]mystitech.de

(03/02 14:15:18)MorganLapahie thanks you

(03/02 14:15:29)Korov’ev thanks you very much!

(03/02 14:15:48)Korov’ev: And now it’s time for some quick Mysterium and Cyan news…

(03/02 14:16:02)Korov’ev: Quite a few #Myst25 backers can’t find the inkwell pen: it’s in the hidden compartment close to the ‘spine’, on the bottom; there’s a flap you can pull.

(03/02 14:16:12)Korov’ev: You can see where all the compartments are in this video: https://youtu.be/0rwAlTcJ9uI

(03/02 14:16:18)Korov’ev: And here is a diagram of the linking panel controls: https://myst.com/mystbookfiles/

(03/02 14:16:34)Ro”Jethhe wonders if this AGM will break the record for the longest meeting time.

(03/02 13:02:56) KittyRenee: ok
(03/02 13:02:59) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(03/02 13:03:05) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(03/02 13:03:05) RowanF: Alright then
(03/02 13:03:17) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(03/02 13:03:27) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(03/02 13:03:35) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(03/02 13:03:53) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(03/02 13:04:02) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.
(03/02 13:04:10) Korov'ev: Before the speaker session, do you know there's a new clock-maker in town?
(03/02 13:04:16) Korov'ev: Explorer Steven Jacks has released a live D'ni clock and calendar here:
(03/02 13:04:23) Korov'ev: http://stevenjacks.com/dni-clock/ (the rest of his site is interesting too!)

(03/02 13:13:28) Max: WE'VE held an event on IWD every year for quite some time now. Always with a lot of music. With or by female singers, artist or groups etc. So also this year when March 8th happens to be a Friday.
(03/02 13:13:45) Max: AS THE schedule stands atm. we start at 12:00 KI Time on Friday… And so far the last part is running till 17:00 at least. But I'd guess we will add some more things to that. So the ending time is still very open.
(03/02 13:14:04) Max: THE locations for the different parts are still under discussion and TBD / To Be Decided… We might be utilizing the Bots for relocation…

(03/02 13:14:56) Max: AND if wondering why start already at 12:00 KI Time?! We in EU are in the evening and towards night at that time! And it's very, very hard to find anybody in other timezones who'd wish to be involed!… BUT, I'd also would like emphasis, that all already involved… kept an eye on the Forum topic for any changes and PM's.
(03/02 13:15:31) Max: BUT IF YOU would like to contribute in any way, you're most welcome to do so! And you could on the spot be added to the end of the shedule…
(03/02 13:15:59) Max: SO there's a Topic on MOULa Forums about this. More specifc on the times and the different parts of the events. We also have a KI Mail to hand out, that will be kept updated, with some of the Main Info. You can PM me (Max) or Mina or Melis or Ro for that one. They should have the Info…
(03/02 13:16:23) Max: so… that's how it is atm… any questions?
(03/02 13:16:40) Korov'ev: none in queue. any?

(03/02 13:24:28) rarified: there, until we need to do a vault reset. At that time Minkata-alpha will become a copy
(03/02 13:24:36) rarified: of Minkata at that moment.
(03/02 13:24:53) axenna: I dont have that shard. may be time to change that
(03/02 13:24:55) rarified: So you won't need to sign up for a new accont on Minkata-alpha, to be able to play.
(03/02 13:25:02) Rabbit: yep
(03/02 13:25:05) kathrynid: oK
(03/02 13:25:17) SAL: Active now
(03/02 13:25:25) rarified: There will be a small batch file you pick up from the OpenUru Foundry website that
(03/02 13:25:51) rarified: allows you to switch your existing Minkata files directly to Minkata-alpha and back,
(03/02 13:26:07) rarified: so you won't have to go through a complete install again.
(03/02 13:26:22) rarified: Now, to set expectations about the fan content.
(03/02 13:26:42) rarified: I *know* that the current MOULa client (and Minkata client) still crash when attemptiung
(03/02 13:27:00) rarified: to load a fan age. The first goal of Minkata-alpha will be to make the client and content
(03/02 13:27:18) rarified: available to the fan creators as well as programmers willing to help debug the problem.
(03/02 13:27:36) rarified: So, at first, you won't likely be able to get into a fan age.
(03/02 13:27:58) rarified: But as we make progress, a fan age will start to work.
(03/02 13:28:11) Adam {Hoikas} idly notes he has already told rarified the problem
(03/02 13:28:24) rarified: We still don't have a fan nexus ready for testing, so the initial Minkata-alpha client will
(03/02 13:28:44) rarified: be an internal client that has the commands to load an age by the back doors.
(03/02 13:29:08) rarified: I'm still hoping to use Doobes' age as the initial test age, but if that turns out to be
(03/02 13:29:28) rarified: too complex , we'll reset and use a simple age. Several authors have come forward
(03/02 13:29:40) Doobes: I figure given the amount of junk in that Pub, it'd be a good stress test. 😛
(03/02 13:29:52) rarified: to volunteer making simple ages, such as an empty box that you can get trapped in 😀
(03/02 13:30:00) rarified: We will see.
(03/02 13:30:21) rarified: Keep up on the Minkata shard topic on the OpenUru forums. http://forums.openuru.org
(03/02 13:30:46) rarified: I'm thinking that in about two weeks I'll be able to announce an opening of Minkata-alpha
(03/02 13:30:52) rarified: if all goes well.

(03/02 13:32:20) Korov'ev: Our next question is from JJ_Wolf75.
(03/02 13:32:20) Korov'ev: [JJ_Wolf75] What does MOSS stands for?
(03/02 13:32:20) axenna: Thats some good wordsmithing, trigg.

(03/02 13:32:41) jtrigg: Thanks Guvnor!
(03/02 13:32:47) rarified: MOSS is the Myst-online Open Source Server. It is a game server that was written
(03/02 13:32:48) TT101: What do you mean by 'progress'?
(03/02 13:33:08) rarified: by fans and it's release coincided with the open source release of the game client.
(03/02 13:33:29) rarified: I use it on Minkata because it was developed entirely by reverse engineering the
(03/02 13:33:53) rarified: official MOUL network protocol, and is the most faithful (IMHO) server that matches the
(03/02 13:34:02) rarified: official game server from Cyan.
(03/02 13:34:22) Korov'ev: Our next question is from KittyRenee.
(03/02 13:34:22) Korov'ev: [KittyRenee] please, where to find Minkata shard?
(03/02 13:34:49) rarified: There is a signup page on the “Foundry” OpenUru web page. http://foundry.openuru.org
(03/02 13:35:10) Korov'ev: An off-the-queue question: can you explain the difference between a Vault reset and a Vault wipe?
(03/02 13:35:44) Emor D'ni Lap: many here do not know what the Vault represents
(03/02 13:35:49) rarified: Hmmm, good question. Usually we talk about a “Vault Wipe”, which means the whole server
(03/02 13:35:59) Ro”Jethhe groans
(03/02 13:36:09) rarified: is reset, and all accounts, avatars, and accomplishments are lost.
(03/02 13:36:15) Ro”Jethhe cries
(03/02 13:36:22) Ro”Jethhe sneezes
(03/02 13:36:30) rarified: This happens only during a catastrophy when the database has been destroyed.
(03/02 13:36:31) kathrynid gasps
(03/02 13:36:34) Adam {Hoikas}: (there is no difference)
(03/02 13:36:37) rarified: Thankfully, very rare.
(03/02 13:36:51) SAL cringes
(03/02 13:36:58) rarified: A “Vault Reset” in the context of Minkata and Minkata-alpha is where the Minkata-alpha
(03/02 13:37:00) Korov'ev: but expected on a testing shard
(03/02 13:37:14) Ro”Jethhe: So basicly just what happened in Sept. of 2014?
(03/02 13:37:15) rarified: vault is reset to exactly match the contents of the Minkata shard.
(03/02 13:37:38) Atuna Minkata: wipe = erasure
(03/02 13:37:38) rarified: This will happen when we find corruption in the database for Minkata-alpha, or when
(03/02 13:37:41) SAL: No backup
(03/02 13:37:50) axenna: What a scary thought
(03/02 13:37:52) rarified: we change which age is being offered on Minkata-alpha.
(03/02 13:37:54) Ro”Jethhe is sorta bummed…
(03/02 13:38:07) Korov'ev: Our next question is from kathrynid.
(03/02 13:38:08) Korov'ev: [kathrynid] what exactly is Minkata-Alpha? Is it like an online site or something?
(03/02 13:38:11) SAL: As it goe
(03/02 13:38:14) rarified: You just will lose the accomplishments you reached on -alpha
(03/02 13:38:16) Doobes: Eh, if it's meant for testing, breaking stuff can be a good thing…if we learn something from it. 😉
(03/02 13:38:17) SAL: Goes
(03/02 13:38:24) Atuna Minkata: 'you mean, “with a cloth?”'
(03/02 13:38:53) rarified: And to elaborate, the Vault contains all of the information about you and your avatars on that
(03/02 13:39:07) rarified: shard. Your clothes, your ages, etc.
(03/02 13:39:15) Korov'ev: I think further questions can be answered later 🙂

(03/02 13:40:44) Tweek claps his hands
(03/02 13:40:53) KittyRenee: shorah
(03/02 13:40:56) Doobes: I'm back with a quick update of how things are going with the Ages of Doobes ™…specifically, one of the five I'm intending to release soon.
(03/02 13:41:16) Doobes: In this case, Veelay Tsahvahn, aka the memorial Age, is nearly complete…and just recently, one big piece of the Age was added!
(03/02 13:41:34) Doobes: For the first time ever, one of my Ages will feature original music…courtesy of Mystler!
(03/02 13:41:53) Doobes: For those who aren't aware, Mystler is the admin of the popular Open Cave shard, but not only that, he's also a very talented musician, and the score he created for Veelay is yet another excellent example.
(03/02 13:42:28) Doobes: The track, appropriately titled “House of Reminiscence”, captures exactly what I was going for with the Age as far as tone. All it took was a WIP version of the Age to run around in and some choice words and Mystler…in just a couple of days, I might add…created something very special.
(03/02 13:42:29) axenna: Oooooo!
(03/02 13:42:42) Doobes: He really did an amazing job on it, and I'm hopeful he'll be up for more collaborations with me in the future.
(03/02 13:42:43) axenna: Thats awesome1
(03/02 13:42:45) Tweek: Sweet!
(03/02 13:42:53) Korov'ev: music!
(03/02 13:42:53) Rabbit cheers
(03/02 13:42:58) Doobes: I'm still debating whether to release the track ahead of the Age itself (I hate to tie an artist's hands), but while I'm deciding, you can have a listen to Mystler's other work on his website, https://www.mystler.eu.
(03/02 13:43:14) Doobes: There, you'll find both of the albums he has released so far: “The Great Traverse” (his first) and the most recent “Seraphim: The Ufumuk Invasion”, the latter of which is a soundtrack to an original sci-fi universe of his creation.
(03/02 13:43:31) Doobes: The accompanying digital booklet also features artwork by another talented artist from the cavern: Tweek!
(03/02 13:43:38) Doobes nods to Tweek
(03/02 13:43:51) Tweek: >.>
(03/02 13:43:56) Doobes: So! While you wait for Veelay Tsahvahn's release…along with the revamped Pub, Chiso Preniv, The Vale, and Kotsahvosahn…give his other work a listen and, if you like, send him a note about what you think!
(03/02 13:44:14) Doobes: The greatest thing we artists can get is constructive feedback. In fact, Mystler even gave me some for Veelay that'll make the Age even better. 😀
(03/02 13:44:40) Doobes: On a related but sadder note, you may have heard about the passing of Jeff Zandi, a friend of the Miller brothers and inspiration for the character you meet sitting by the Airstream up on the surface by the cleft.
(03/02 13:45:10) Doobes: I've added an entry for him into the Age's in-game journals along with the others. Note that I take writing submissions if anyone wants to say a little something about any of the explorers who have passed and have it added to the journals for all to read.
(03/02 13:45:39) Korov'ev: You can hear his actual voice in two unused clips in the MOULa sfx folder: clftEdog.ogg and clftEdog02.ogg
(03/02 13:45:48) Korov'ev: And read some bio here: http://tysmtgblog.blogspot.com/2019/02/jeff-zandi-and-texas-magic-hall-of-fame.html
(03/02 13:45:58) Doobes: Ah, nice. Thanks, Kor.
(03/02 13:46:07) Doobes: If you have such a submission, be sure to mention who it's for and send it to agesofdoobes@gmail.com. It'll be added, unedited, to the corresponding book entry for the person in question. You can write as little or as much as you'd like (within reason).
(03/02 13:46:23) Doobes: If there happens to be a name missing you would like added, I can do that too if provided some details about the person.
(03/02 13:46:39) Doobes: While these journals will be semi-regularly updated depending on how shard owners would like to handle things, the best way to get things added right away is to visit the In Memoriam wiki page (http://wiki.openuru.org/index.php?title=In_Memoriam).
(03/02 13:46:58) Doobes: If you sign up there, you can edit the wiki to add and edit things, and anything added will eventually also be put into Veelay's in-game books as well.
(03/02 13:47:11) Tweek: Kor> Those Edog clips aren't Zandi's real voice, those clips are voiced by Edog iirc.
(03/02 13:47:21) Doobes: As with the other Ages, I'm hoping to release them near simultaneously on Gehn Shard, The Open Cave, Deep Island and offline URU…then eventually Minkata Shard (either or) and finally MOULa.
(03/02 13:47:25) KittyRenee: I'm assuming Zandi's name has been added to the scrolling memorial in the damaged underground Pub in D'ni?
(03/02 13:47:40) Tweek: I believe so Kitty.
(03/02 13:47:41) Rabbit: yes it has
(03/02 13:47:47) Ro”Jethhe: His name has been added.
(03/02 13:47:51) KittyRenee: thanks
(03/02 13:47:52) Doobes: Cyan is usually pretty good about that. 🙂
(03/02 13:47:56) Doobes: To keep up with Veelay and all of my work, you can visit my site, http://agesofdoobes.wordpress.com, and my Facebook pages at http://www.facebook.com/agesofdoobes/.
(03/02 13:48:04) bella1: ty
(03/02 13:48:06) Doobes: With all that in mind, any questions?

(03/02 13:49:13) Rabbit: I saw your facebook post about pets
(03/02 13:49:18) Ro”Jethhe says DOH!
(03/02 13:49:19) Doobes: Ah, she may be referring to my latest post of FB. I added a little cat statue for a pet I lost a little over a year ago.
(03/02 13:49:23) SAL: Aw the one that would not eat??
(03/02 13:49:29) Doobes: And yes, Rabbit, I'm sorry to hear that. :/
(03/02 13:49:31) Rabbit: different one
(03/02 13:49:40) Rabbit cries
(03/02 13:49:50) RowanF: That is sad!
(03/02 13:49:56) SAL: Sorry bout that
(03/02 13:50:06) axenna is sad for Rabbit 🙁
(03/02 13:50:07) Doobes: While it IS a cat statue, it's meant to symbolize any pet, as they can be just as important to us as their human counterparts. It's not as big a part of the Age, but I wanted to add a little something for them too.
(03/02 13:50:13) KittyRenee: sorry about your fur baby, Rabbit
(03/02 13:50:21) axenna: I love that Doobes, thats super sweet
(03/02 13:50:22) RowanF: Ya!
(03/02 13:50:46) Doobes: That really is the purpose of the Age…a place to gather and mourn those we've lost, either here from the cavern or just from life in general.

(03/02 13:53:51) Doobes: Shhhh…we're getting there, Kitty. 😉
(03/02 13:53:58) KittyRenee: sorry lol
(03/02 13:54:03) Ro”Jethhe: Drum Roll…
(03/02 13:54:12) Korov'ev: I`m here for the questions…
(03/02 13:54:33) SAL points
(03/02 13:54:37) Tweek: I'm collecting submissions from fans regarding their first experiences with Myst and the impact it's had on them. Which will be added to the library within the Age itself.
(03/02 13:54:50) kathrynid: Wow cool
(03/02 13:55:00) Tweek: The Age isn't released yet, but I'll be putting it out there for people to add to their shards if they so wish.
(03/02 13:55:22) Tweek: Any questions?
(03/02 13:55:59) Korov'ev: which shards are you planning to release it on?
(03/02 13:56:56) Tweek: Gehn is most likely if Hoikas is interested. I'll be putting a UruCC version out on Beneath so I expect the shards that run the older Uru version may use it.
(03/02 13:57:09) Tweek: It really depends on who wants it on their shards really.
(03/02 13:57:29) Tweek: I would like to get it onto this Shard in the future when we're at that point.
(03/02 13:57:46) radioflux: Cyan should want it on their shard 😉
(03/02 13:57:50) Adam {Hoikas}: I give it a high probability of arriving on Gehn. Maybe then I can be bothered to package up all these QOL fixes lying around…
(03/02 13:57:55) Korov'ev: I bet diafero will want it 😉
(03/02 13:58:22) Doobes: We shall throw content at diafero until he doesn't. 😛
(03/02 13:58:29) Tweek: lol
(03/02 13:58:33) Dulcamara: Lol
(03/02 13:58:33) Korov'ev: he he
(03/02 13:58:40) Tweek: Any other questions?
(03/02 13:58:45) vid: Would you say that any day after March 9th will be too late?
(03/02 13:58:55) jtrigg: He'll probably duck!
(03/02 13:59:09) Tweek: Depends how far after march 9th.
(03/02 13:59:25) vid: Mmm. So not canon yet.
(03/02 13:59:28) vid sits quietly
(03/02 13:59:32) jtrigg: beware the Ides of March
(03/02 13:59:47) Korov'ev claps his hands
(03/02 13:59:47) Korov'ev: Thank you Tweek!
(03/02 13:59:49) axenna: Amen
(03/02 13:59:49) Tweek: I'm hoping to get the submissions in the Age before release so adding them afterwords is something I'd rather not do.
(03/02 13:59:51) Doobes claps his hands

(03/02 14:00:16) Doobes: Oh, they're a breeze now, Tweek. I love it.
(03/02 14:00:27) Korov'ev: And now, something about fan content of another kind…
(03/02 14:00:36) Korov'ev: Morgan, come here!
(03/02 14:00:38) bella1 sends you my chili
(03/02 14:00:41) Mirphak claps his hands
(03/02 14:00:42) Korov'ev is a bit puzzled…
(03/02 14:00:42) Korov'ev: Wait, aren't you a fictional character?
(03/02 14:00:44) Doobes claps his hands
(03/02 14:00:45) JJ_Wolf75 claps his hands
(03/02 14:00:46) Davide claps his hands

(03/02 14:01:04) TGMChrist claps his hands
(03/02 14:01:06) Kayara claps her hands
(03/02 14:01:09) MorganLapahie: A year ago, after the 2018 March AGM, several of you “volunteered” to let Mir-o-bot transport you to the MystiTech neighbourhood to act as extras in a flashback scene for The Lost Art.
(03/02 14:01:24) MorganLapahie: That scene, filmed by Joanne Fisher and Kayara, is coming up in Episode 9. I managed to persuade Korov'ev and Mirphak to play the parts of Kodama and Laxman.
(03/02 14:01:26) Rabbit: yep!
(03/02 14:01:31) axenna: Ooooo!
(03/02 14:01:38) MorganLapahie: Amazingly they weren't put off by the technical issues we had that night, for they have been with us ever since. And not only as avatar operators. Korov'ev has become both our main photographer and one of our editors.
(03/02 14:01:43) Korov'ev bows
(03/02 14:01:52) Rabbit cheers
(03/02 14:01:52) axenna claps her hands
(03/02 14:01:56) Doobes cheers
(03/02 14:01:57) davidmax claps his hands
(03/02 14:01:59) MorganLapahie: As for Mirphak, not only has he deputised several of us as ancillary bots, he has developed some stunning set lighting. So much so that we ended up re-filming several scenes!
(03/02 14:02:00) RowanF claps her hands
(03/02 14:02:01) Davide claps his hands
(03/02 14:02:03) Rabbit: Yeah!!! Korov'ev
(03/02 14:02:11) Korov'ev: One thing that has transformed filming is the latest version of the H'uru client created by the Guild of Writers. This version has KI commands that allow us to save the costumes and other parameters of all our main characters.
(03/02 14:02:12) axenna: You guys are amazing
(03/02 14:02:22) Rabbit: yeah Mirphak!
(03/02 14:02:26) Korov'ev: Which means that if someone should crash in the middle of a shoot we can have other avatars on standby that can be properly dressed and made up with a simple KI command.
(03/02 14:02:38) Korov'ev: oops!
(03/02 14:02:39) Doobes: Understudies!
(03/02 14:02:41) Rabbit: cool!
(03/02 14:02:43) Doobes: Oh dear.
(03/02 14:02:48) Korov'ev: If you have seen Episode 6, you will have seen two of the new sets created for us by Dulcamara and Doobes.
(03/02 14:02:54) Mirphak: morgan crashed…
(03/02 14:02:56) RowanF: Hey I am leaveing the meeting (The whole game for today!) Bye!
(03/02 14:03:05) Korov'ev: Morgaaaan!
(03/02 14:03:07) Rabbit: bye
(03/02 14:03:09) Christian Walther: Just dress up as Morgan, Kor.
(03/02 14:03:19) axenna: Bye Rowan
(03/02 14:03:32) Korov'ev: A third set is coming up in episode 8, and just recently Dulcamara has started work on something that will appear at the start of Season Three.
(03/02 14:03:46) Doobes: Yay!
(03/02 14:03:56) SAL: Absolutely lost
(03/02 14:04:05) Rabbit: Yay Dulca!
(03/02 14:04:16) Dulcamara: :-)))
(03/02 14:04:24) Korov'ev: let`s see if we can rescue Morgan!
(03/02 14:04:29) Ro”Jethhe: I bet Dulca is making Alabaster even LARGER!
(03/02 14:04:36) Dulcamara: Looooooool
(03/02 14:04:40) KittyRenee: yep
(03/02 14:04:42) Rabbit: oh noooooeeeeees
(03/02 14:04:49) bella1: on nooooooooooooooo
(03/02 14:04:51) KittyRenee: lol
(03/02 14:04:52) bella1: 🙂
(03/02 14:04:58) Dulcamara: Only a new station
(03/02 14:05:07) Ro”Jethhe: Part 4?
(03/02 14:05:16) Dulcamara: 4 an 5
(03/02 14:05:22) jtrigg: I have absolutely no idea as to what is going on just now!
(03/02 14:05:23) Ro”Jethhe faints.
(03/02 14:05:25) Korov'ev: those bahro, playing tricks!
(03/02 14:05:26) PodHopper: omg
(03/02 14:05:30) axenna looks blank
(03/02 14:05:32) KittyRenee: WOW!
(03/02 14:05:35) Rabbit: four AND Five???? OMG
(03/02 14:05:39) Doobes blinks
(03/02 14:05:41) Ro”Jethhe: Good luck Hopper.
(03/02 14:05:44) MorganLapahie: We also want to thank both Larry and Tweek for some stunning graphics that will appear this season. It is such a joy to be able to draw on the creativity of so many of our community.
(03/02 14:05:47) PodHopper: thanks
(03/02 14:05:48) SAL: I am lost
(03/02 14:05:53) KittyRenee: Dulcamara doesn't do anything small 🙂
(03/02 14:05:58) Rabbit: noooo
(03/02 14:06:00) Dulcamara claps her hands for Morgan
(03/02 14:06:02) axenna: Brb
(03/02 14:06:03) Ro”Jethhe: AMEN!
(03/02 14:06:09) Tweek: Damn that Tweek guy gets around 😐
(03/02 14:06:13) MorganLapahie: To that end I'd like to thank Minasunda, the NULP dancers, Mirphak and Yoda for inspiration. After the 25th Anniversary NULP dance show, Mirphak showed me one of the scripts he'd written to control the dancers.
(03/02 14:06:18) Doobes: Indeed he does.
(03/02 14:06:38) MorganLapahie: I think he might be regretting that now, because I've been pushing him to create several for The Lost Art! Ditto with Yoda and the light show he put on at Christmas.
(03/02 14:06:50) Rabbit starts to laugh
(03/02 14:06:54) Mirphak says DOH!
(03/02 14:07:01) Elijah2 claps his hands
(03/02 14:07:02) MorganLapahie: Recently I asked him and Lu to come to a special-effects brainstorming session. There and then we conscripted Lu into playing a part for a scene we were filming, and the two of them have now joined our team.
(03/02 14:07:17) Rabbit roars with laughter
(03/02 14:07:20) MorganLapahie: Which means our film set has become truly multilingual: thank heaven for Google Translate!
(03/02 14:07:22) Ro”Jethhe: A lot of sleepless nights ahead for you Mir
(03/02 14:07:42) TGMChrist want a Bahro to protect him from the evil Bahro Nekisahloth who attack him at 2015.
(03/02 14:07:52) Mirphak: yes Ro
(03/02 14:08:04) Korov'ev: As to when future episodes will be released: episodes 7, 8 and 9 are completely filmed and edited, apart from a few pickups. The two things that are holding up their release are the music and the titles sequence.
(03/02 14:08:08) MorganLapahie: Back to you, Kor
(03/02 14:08:22) Korov'ev: We are also well along in the filming and editing of episodes 10 and 11. So please don't lose interest. We continue to work on the project every weekend, and we hope you are all keen to see further revelations in The Lost Art story.
(03/02 14:08:34) MorganLapahie: yes
(03/02 14:08:34) Korov'ev: Any questions?
(03/02 14:09:16) SAL cowers
(03/02 14:09:31) MorganLapahie: So I guess that is all? Any questions?
(03/02 14:09:45) Rabbit: ALL??? lol
(03/02 14:09:59) MorganLapahie: And I only crashed once, that has to be a record for me!!
(03/02 14:10:05) Doobes laughs
(03/02 14:10:07) Rabbit cheers
(03/02 14:10:08) Dulcamara: Lol
(03/02 14:10:13) Christian Walther: Maybe you can explain what The Lost Art is for those who are not familiar.
(03/02 14:10:15) Korov'ev: I guess you can go back to the alternate reality 🙂
(03/02 14:10:18)
(03/02 14:10:28) SAL: Yes please do
(03/02 14:10:31) MorganLapahie: Oh, dear, where to start…
(03/02 14:10:46) Ro”Jethhe: Just like the TV Series 'LOST'
(03/02 14:10:47) jtrigg: i wouold appreciate it Morgan
(03/02 14:10:52) SAL: Start with what the episodes are
(03/02 14:10:55) Korov'ev: it`s like a TV series, but on YouTube
(03/02 14:10:57) KittyRenee: Series of videos on YouTube called, The Lost Art
(03/02 14:10:59) MorganLapahie: It's a series of videos that is set in 2040…
(03/02 14:11:36) MorganLapahie: It is best if you can go to YouTube and search for MystiTech Productions. Then watch the first video called Passing the Torch.
(03/02 14:12:05) Korov'ev: https://www.youtube.com/user/MystitechProductions
(03/02 14:12:10) TGMChrist: Still waiting of Episode 7
(03/02 14:12:11) MorganLapahie: That tells a bit of the backstory, leading up to the establishment of a DRC archives.
(03/02 14:12:17) Ro”Jethhe: It's the MYST movie that never got off the ground.
(03/02 14:13:07) MorganLapahie: Thanks! Ro. When we first wrote to Cyan to ask permission to do this, we told them “Let's see who gets their Myst story done first!”
(03/02 14:13:14) Korov'ev: more or less 🙂
(03/02 14:13:15) KittyRenee: TTYL for now
(03/02 14:13:20) BIG thumbs up from Ro”Jethhe
(03/02 14:13:36) Korov'ev: Our next question is from JJ_Wolf75.
(03/02 14:13:36) Korov'ev: [JJ_Wolf75] which shards do u use for The Lost Ark?
(03/02 14:13:42) Korov'ev: this one!
(03/02 14:14:02) JJ_Wolf75: ohh
(03/02 14:14:07) Adam {Hoikas}: HAX!
(03/02 14:14:09) Doobes: Using some hacks and magic tricks, of course.
(03/02 14:14:13) MorganLapahie: Yes, this one. But we film in private instances, because Mirphak is often doing magic
(03/02 14:14:13) Adam {Hoikas} throws CRT monitor
(03/02 14:14:21) Doobes: Good (or evil?) programming. Hehehe.
(03/02 14:14:29) MorganLapahie: Also, we have bahro characters, which you will have seen in Episode 6.
(03/02 14:14:33) Korov'ev: ev… I mean, good!
(03/02 14:14:41) JJ_Wolf75: ok thank you

(03/02 14:16:12) Korov'ev: You can see where all the compartments are in this video: https://youtu.be/0rwAlTcJ9uI
(03/02 14:16:18) Korov'ev: And here is a diagram of the linking panel controls: https://myst.com/mystbookfiles/

(02/02 13:01:04)J’Kla: Cyan would be upset

(02/02 13:01:11)Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:

(02/02 13:01:19)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(02/02 13:01:30)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(02/02 13:01:32)Max zips his lips

(02/02 13:01:33)Night-Tripper: also groundhogs day

(02/02 13:01:48)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(02/02 13:01:58)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(02/02 13:02:06)Korov’ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers’ brand new site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(02/02 13:02:21)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(02/02 13:02:39)Korov’ev: So, next week Uru Live will be NINE year old!

(02/02 13:02:52)Acorn1: Wow!

(02/02 13:02:55)Korov’ev: That’s more than it ever did under both Ubisoft and Gametap.

(02/02 13:03:05)Tai’lahr: Combined!

(02/02 13:03:16)Max: we’re persistant here!

(02/02 13:03:17)Night-Tripper: hurrah

(02/02 13:09:03)Floyd says Thank You to Minasunda

(02/02 13:09:09)Korov’ev: Thank you Minasunda!

(02/02 13:09:12)Aristocat thanks mina

(02/02 13:09:19)Rabbit: thanks Min!

(02/02 13:09:21)Minasunda: yes Cyan had a invitation 🙂

(02/02 13:09:28)shokhootahn Rehn: Thanks, Min!

(02/02 13:09:32)Max: great!

(02/02 13:09:36)Korov’ev: And that’s NOT all for this month, by far 😉

(02/02 13:09:38)bella1: thanks mina!

(02/02 13:09:43)Korov’ev: More musical events are being planned…

(02/02 13:09:52)Night-Tripper: how about the Dni refugees let them know

(02/02 13:09:54)Korov’ev: Let’s hear about them from… Max!

(02/02 13:10:05)Max: oh… that’s me

(02/02 13:10:11)Lama Kni: nice to meet you all!

(02/02 13:10:15)Night-Tripper: yea Max

(02/02 13:10:17)Korov’ev: yeah, it`s you 🙂

(02/02 13:10:22)Lama Kni: NAMASTE

(02/02 13:10:25)Max: got hit by lag…

(02/02 13:10:34)Lama Kni waves hello

(02/02 13:10:35)shokhootahn Rehn: 🙁

(02/02 13:10:46)Max: So… I have a couple of Musical Events to inform you all about… Please wait with any questions you might have till I’m done…

(02/02 13:11:03)Max: The Sunday Music Sessions took a ‘Pause’ for a recharge… or to ‘Reload’ for a while… But the Sessions will continue again at the end of February… So the next Session [#12] will be on Sunday Feb. 24th… And more dates will be added to that later on…

(02/02 13:11:29)Max: The theme this time on 24th is “From Cover to Cover”… And I will mostly play [if not all of it] “covers”… And again, any suggestions or requests for great “covers” to play are most welcome!!!

(02/02 13:12:01)Max: Now… over to another music thing that has become a Yearly Event… The International Women’s Day on March 8th [this year a Friday]… When we’ve always played music, all with & by female artists or groups…

(02/02 13:12:28)Max: This time I’d encourage All Our Female Explorers… girls & women or DJ’s [wannabees] to STEP UP!…

(02/02 13:12:55)Max: SO… MAKE a Tracklist & PLAY… It’s easy to stream, and RFD crew or Me can help you out with the details on that!

(02/02 13:13:13)Max: OR… MAKE a Tracklist… THEN any of us resident DJ’s [who are on the URUTUNES] could play that for you…

(02/02 13:13:33)Max: OR… JUST make requests or suggestions for tracks to PLAY… And I can compile a session or two & play it all…

(02/02 13:14:08)Max: OR… ANY Combo of these three…

(02/02 13:14:24)Max: I’ll put up some more detailed Info regarding all of this on the MOULa Forums soon’ish…

(02/02 13:14:41)Max: And lastly…

(02/02 13:14:55)Max: As time flies quickly around here… We have the International Mother Earth’s Day coming up soon… That’s on April 22nd… I think we can promise you all…

(02/02 13:15:20)Max: Something… 22nd is a Monday. So maybe the weekend 19th to 21st & 22nd is best suited for good measures for any Events… But more on that around April’s AGM…

(02/02 13:15:48)Max: and that’s enough for now, I think… any questions?

(02/02 13:15:55)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Kayara.

(02/02 13:15:55)Korov’ev: [Kayara] Do you mean female solo artists or female-only groups or also groups with maybe a female singer?

(02/02 13:16:12)Max: all of that counts, sure

(02/02 13:16:50)Max: or duets male/female is ok too, I think

(02/02 13:17:08)Korov’ev: Thank you Max!

(02/02 13:17:11)Floyd bows to max

(02/02 13:17:14)Max: ok

(02/02 13:17:17)Grandbad clap

(02/02 13:17:19)Max bows

(02/02 13:17:25)Lama Kni: Inga Rumpf ATLANTIS

(02/02 13:17:42)Korov’ev: While people are partying, the Guild of Hax– Writers has been busy scheming…

(02/02 13:17:57)Rabbit: ooooooh

(02/02 13:17:59)Korov’ev: and their latest plot produced a new version of Korman, the Age creation plugin for Blender!

(02/02 13:18:09)Acorn1: Yay!

(02/02 13:18:14)TGMChrist: Great

(02/02 13:18:15)Korov’ev: Version 0.08 focuses on ease of use and intuitive extensions of existing functions;

(02/02 13:18:24)Korov’ev: you can now copy/paste modifiers, pack Age Python scripts automatically, and generate the Journal files automatically.

(02/02 13:18:25)Night-Tripper: ?

(02/02 13:18:32)Rabbit: is there anything intuitive about blender?

(02/02 13:18:42)Korov’ev: very handy, technical stuff 🙂

(02/02 13:19:00)Lushun: cool

(02/02 13:19:05)J’Kla: Only when you have been using it a few years

(02/02 13:19:12)Rabbit starts to laugh

(02/02 13:19:13)Korov’ev: they do love to change the GUI from time to time

(02/02 13:19:15)Night-Tripper will stick to exploring

(02/02 13:19:31)Korov’ev: For more info, check the forum thread at https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6982

(02/02 13:19:49)Korov’ev: And speaking of Age creation, this year has had a promising start, with plenty of new Ages been announced!

(02/02 13:19:51)Grandbad will just stick

(02/02 13:20:09)Korov’ev: Not only that, but things are (somewhat) moving on the Intangibles front, the project to complete Cyan’s Ages and bring fan Ages to MOULa.

(02/02 13:20:24)Night-Tripper: allright

(02/02 13:20:27)Korov’ev: Let’s hear about it from… Tweek!

(02/02 13:20:29)Acorn1: Ooh!

(02/02 13:20:33)bella1: awesome

(02/02 13:20:37)Max: now you’re talking…

(02/02 13:20:41)Kayara: yay!

(02/02 13:20:42)Grandbad claps

(02/02 13:20:46)TGMChrist: Tweek you are the best.

(02/02 13:20:50)Floyd claps his flippers

(02/02 13:20:51)MindWalker is excited!

(02/02 13:21:05)Tweek: Greetings programs!

(02/02 13:21:28)Night-Tripper checks his program

(02/02 13:21:31)Grandbad laughs

(02/02 13:21:32)Tweek: It’s true, I come with Intangibles news…shock..horror and all that jazz.

(02/02 13:22:00)Rabbit is turning purple

(02/02 13:22:08)Korov’ev: D`ni jazz, that is

(02/02 13:22:18)Max: I kinda like jazz nowadays…

(02/02 13:22:22)Tweek: So modeling work on the Gateway Nexus has now been completed. I am currently just doing some final checks over it to make sure nothing is missing or messed up before I send it to Hoikas and Del to hook up.

(02/02 13:22:40)Rabbit exhales

(02/02 13:22:59)Tweek: For those of you who may not be aware, the Gateway Nexus was one of several projects being worked on that will serve as an access point for fan content on Cyan’s shard.

(02/02 13:23:03)Acorn1: Woot!

(02/02 13:23:26)Floyd says OMG!

(02/02 13:23:27)Korov’ev: (and a key one, too)

(02/02 13:23:28)Night-Tripper throws money

(02/02 13:23:47)Tweek: I know things have been moving at a very slow pace. It’s frustrating for not just you guys but for us building the stuff too.

(02/02 13:23:50)Max: over here N-T… me too

(02/02 13:24:22)Tweek: I’ve recently posted some in game screenshots over at my Age Building page on FB – https://www.facebook.com/agesoftweek/

(02/02 13:25:01)Aristocat is drinking some milk

(02/02 13:25:08)Tweek: And Rawa was nice enough to assist on helping to form some of the lore behind the Gateway Nexus

(02/02 13:25:22)Lushun: 🙂

(02/02 13:25:30)Kayara: wooooot

(02/02 13:25:30)cjherkeless: wow.

(02/02 13:25:31)TGMChrist: WOW

(02/02 13:25:36)Grandbad passes the mints around

(02/02 13:25:36)Max: oooowh… amazing! how’s RAWA doing?

(02/02 13:26:06)Tweek: He’s not 100% still. You can keep up with how he’s doing on his Caring Bridge page.

(02/02 13:26:38)Tweek: So despite the seemingly standstill atmosphere behind Intangibles, stuff is still moving forward 🙂

(02/02 13:26:57)Acorn1: Great news! Thanks, Tweek!

(02/02 13:27:07)Grandbad claps

(02/02 13:27:09)Max: indeed great news!

(02/02 13:27:14)Tweek: Secondly, Eder Fahsee. For those of you who were at the AGM last month you will be familiar with Eder Fahsee, to those of you who weren’t Eder Fahsee is an Age I have Written to celebrate Myst’s 25th Anniversary.

(02/02 13:27:31)Tweek: We are taking written submissions from the explorer community chronicling their first interactions with Myst and the impact it had on their lives. If you’re interested in contributing to this project please check out http://dniexplorer.com/fahsee and if you wish to submit something you can do so via the contact form on that page.

(02/02 13:27:43)Tweek: Deadline for submissions has now been pushed back to the 9th of March 2019 to give people a bit more time to submit something.

(02/02 13:28:34)Tweek: And lastly, an interim build of Fahets is due for release soon.

(02/02 13:28:34)Lushun: great impact on my life, sure 🙂

(02/02 13:29:11)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Theo.

(02/02 13:29:11)Korov’ev: [Theo] So, where will that Gateway Nexus be installed first?

(02/02 13:29:48)Tweek: This interim build is based on the first version of Fahets but with updated textures and geometry to bring it more in line with the newer build. This interim build is a stop gap before I release the version 2 which makes the Age a lot larger.

(02/02 13:30:24)Tweek: The Gateway Nexus when Hoikas and Del have done their stuff will be sent over to the Open Uru guys for testing before moving to Cyan’s shard

(02/02 13:31:27)Tweek: Any other questions?

(02/02 13:31:39)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Theo.

(02/02 13:31:40)Korov’ev: [Theo] That shard of Cyan’s being Minkata Shard or Here?

(02/02 13:31:47)Tweek: Here

(02/02 13:31:50)Floyd: Sounds like I should be funneling my money over to you other than 59 volts?

(02/02 13:32:03)Korov’ev: so Minkata, then MOULa

(02/02 13:32:08)Tweek: Yes

(02/02 13:32:25)Korov’ev: possibly Gehn before that?

(02/02 13:32:49)Tweek: Don’t know Gehn just adds Fan Ages anyway..so they probably wouldn’t need the Gateway

(02/02 13:33:08)Korov’ev: right

(02/02 13:33:17)Tweek: Especially seeming they are more selective on what Ages they add.

(02/02 13:34:25)Korov’ev: Thank you Tweek!

(02/02 13:34:41)Floyd: me sends kudos to Tweek

(02/02 13:34:44)radioflux throws roses

(02/02 13:34:46)Mirphak: thank you Tweek 🙂

(02/02 13:35:06)Korov’ev: But there’s more!

(02/02 13:35:15)Korov’ev: Writer matthornb recently posted on Facebook about the five (5) Ages he’s been working on: Sevkor, D’ni Temple, Eder Vikae, Nay’elas, and Alepahnay.

(02/02 13:35:21)Floyd: no way!!!!

(02/02 13:35:36)Korov’ev: Part of D’ni Temple (area 1) is already available for offline and online visitors, but will be vastly expanded with areas 2 and 3;

(02/02 13:35:52)Rabbit: when?

(02/02 13:35:53)Korov’ev: you might have heard about Sevkor in discussions about porting fan Ages into MOULa, as one of the proposed ways to access them (the more the better, I’d say);

(02/02 13:35:53)Night-Tripper: where?

(02/02 13:36:07)Korov’ev: Eder Vikae, Nay’elas, and Alepahnay are all new Ages, loosely inspired by old concepts.

(02/02 13:36:25)Aristocat is looking forward

(02/02 13:36:30)Korov’ev: Very SoonTM 🙂

(02/02 13:36:35)Night-Tripper is panting with excitment

(02/02 13:36:37)Korov’ev: On top of that, he’ll release a Unity remake of Sehv T’devokan, his standalone game, including a version that can be played in a web browser.

(02/02 13:36:54)Korov’ev: He is planning to release them very soon for offline Uru and any shards willing to host them (as Korman allows to easily export for both types).

(02/02 13:37:08)Rabbit: wow

(02/02 13:37:17)Korov’ev: You can read more about matthornb’s creations at: http://www.mystfanart.org/myfanart.html

(02/02 13:37:29)Rabbit wonders about the endlessly elastic definition of ‘soon’

(02/02 13:37:36)Korov’ev: Speaking of fan Ages, the ultimate goal is to get them on MOULa itself!

(02/02 13:37:37)Night-Tripper: lol

(02/02 13:37:38)Lushun: lol

(02/02 13:37:49)Korov’ev: The last step before that is getting them to Minkata.

(02/02 13:38:03)Korov’ev: So, let’s hear the latest news from OpenUru’s shard from… rarified!

(02/02 13:38:06)Night-Tripper: need beta testers?

(02/02 13:38:46)Kayara: Sounds like our writers are quite busy right now 🙂

(02/02 13:38:50)rarified: Shorah, all!

(02/02 13:39:09)Mirphak: shorah rarified

(02/02 13:39:16)rarified: It’s been a long time — far too long — since I last took an opportunity

(02/02 13:39:25)Max: it’s like we’ve got a second X-mas…

(02/02 13:39:55)Floyd: begotten bootie

(02/02 13:40:02)rarified: to talk to you.

(02/02 13:40:22)rarified: [Apologies for some duplicates sent to individuals, it’s my first time cut-n-pasting]

(02/02 13:40:46)rarified: Today, I’d like to give what I’m calling a “State of Minkata” report.

(02/02 13:40:58)Floyd: yay

(02/02 13:41:05)rarified: There are many reasons for delays in development on the Minkata

(02/02 13:41:25)rarified: shard including the fact that the game server MOSS needed to

(02/02 13:41:54)rarified: be rebuilt. For more details on that, please see my post at

(02/02 13:42:09)rarified: http://forums.openuru.org/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=1017

(02/02 13:42:22)rarified: Now for the current “State of Minkata”.

(02/02 13:42:35)rarified: Since the beginning of the year I have been able to spend a fair amount

(02/02 13:43:00)rarified: of time trying to narrow down the possible causes for the Minkata bug that

(02/02 13:43:10)rarified: people have encountered since last fall about age state not being saved.

(02/02 13:43:25)rarified: See http://forums.openuru.org/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=1012

(02/02 13:43:31)Acorn1: Yup!

(02/02 13:43:36)rarified: During this time I’ve disabled all previously existing accounts

(02/02 13:43:45)rarified: on Minkata, which makes it much easier to debug things with a new

(02/02 13:43:55)rarified: Vault. Minkata is still locked down today. The existing Vault has

(02/02 13:44:04)rarified: been saved and I will try to restore it when I’ve fixed the bug.

(02/02 13:44:13)rarified: I am continuing to work on it, now with a fairly consistent schedule of

(02/02 13:44:21)rarified: time each week. I don’t know what the problem is yet, so I can’t give

(02/02 13:44:27)rarified: you a schedule on a fix. I do know I have a few more days of work before

(02/02 13:44:36)rarified: I can test an updated MOSS.

(02/02 13:44:44)rarified: I’ve written about these issues in more detail in my post and hope that

(02/02 13:44:52)rarified: the coders in the community will take a look and see if they have any

(02/02 13:44:59)rarified: suggestions or assistance they can offer.

(02/02 13:45:06)rarified: Once these issue can be resolved, more testing will be needed and then

(02/02 13:45:14)rarified: I have some fan created content ready for testing.

(02/02 13:45:20)Acorn1: Ooh!

(02/02 13:45:21)rarified: So in conclusion, I’m saying that while you have not heard anything

(02/02 13:45:30)rarified: from me about Minkata and Fan Content for a long time, there has been

(02/02 13:45:39)rarified: considerable work being done to reach the point where we can deploy

(02/02 13:45:45)rarified: it in a testing framework. And once that barrier has been broken,

(02/02 13:45:52)rarified: the community can start working with Cyan to finish the bridge to MOULa

(02/02 13:46:02)Floyd: we can break it again

(02/02 13:46:02)rarified: Thank you.

(02/02 13:46:04)Lushun: 🙂

(02/02 13:46:28)Korov’ev: Thank you rarified!

(02/02 13:46:50)rarified: Any questions? I already received a suggestion to fix the formatting on my post 😉

(02/02 13:47:15)Korov’ev: how to play on Minkata (when it will be back)?

(02/02 13:47:35)rarified: As I mentioned, I don’t know exactly when Minkata will open back up.

(02/02 13:47:55)rarified: But when it’s ready, I’ll announce that in the OpenUru Minkata forum

(02/02 13:47:59)Floyd twiddles his ages in anticipation

(02/02 13:48:07)Acorn1: thanks for all your hard work, rarified!

(02/02 13:48:10)rarified: http://forums.openuru.org/viewforum.php?f=108

(02/02 13:48:12)Korov’ev: excellent!

(02/02 13:48:27)rarified: As to how to play on Minkata, go to our “Foundry” home page

(02/02 13:48:36)rarified: at http://foundry.openuru.org

(02/02 13:49:09)rarified: [Please don’t try to sign up until I announce it works :D)

(02/02 13:49:26)rarified: Any other Qs?

(02/02 13:49:29)PodHopper: hope you find a fix soon… (again that word…)

(02/02 13:49:36)rarified: Soon ™

(02/02 13:49:41)Rabbit starts to laugh

(02/02 13:50:05)Tai’lahr: Thanks for all your hard work on this, rarified.

(02/02 13:50:07)rarified: Ok. Post questions on the OpenUru forums if they pop up.

(02/02 13:50:10)rarified bows

(02/02 13:50:21)Lama Kni bows

(02/02 13:50:23)Max claps furiously

(02/02 13:50:44)Korov’ev: And now it’s time for some Cyan news!

(02/02 13:50:52)Korov’ev: (brace yourselves for a wall of text)

(02/02 13:51:03)Korov’ev: The #Myst25 DVDs have all been shipped; if you don’t have yours yet, you should try contacting support@cyan.com (although sending more than one is of no use and might contribute to slowing down things). Cyan will reach out to any backers whose DVDs are being returned due to various delivery issues.

(02/02 13:51:28)Night-Tripper: just got my prize

(02/02 13:51:36)Korov’ev: Inkwells and linking books are being shipped separately, as doing otherwise would have delayed shipping by several months for everyone, with an increased chance being damaged. If you do receive damaged rewards, or with missing pieces, contact support@cyan.com and include pictures of the damages.

(02/02 13:51:58)Tweek: Got my Myst books the other day..they are stunning.

(02/02 13:52:06)Rabbit: oui Jan

(02/02 13:52:15)Korov’ev: (still waiting mine…)

(02/02 13:52:21)Korov’ev: If you haven’t received the physical rewards, don’t panic; if you have the tracking information, first try contacting your local post office. US backers are getting their books and inkwells a few weeks later than other countries.

(02/02 13:52:23)rarified taps foot.

(02/02 13:52:48)Korov’ev: Canadian backers are also getting the DVDs later than most other countries, in some cases after the books. If you haven’t received them yet, don’t lose hope, and try contacting your local post office.

(02/02 13:52:57)Aristocat treasures his myst books

(02/02 13:53:12)Korov’ev: Also, some backers have reported getting a virus alert when they tried to plug their linking books into their computers. It’s not clear how serious the alerts are yet; putting the specific file in a Windows 10 virtual machine didn’t produce any suspicious activity.

(02/02 13:53:18)Rabbit: the problem is Canada Customs

(02/02 13:53:34)Night-Tripper: sigh

(02/02 13:53:39)Korov’ev: It appears that only specific batches have them, and it’s been difficult to get informations from the production factory. The investigation is still ongoing.

(02/02 13:53:53)Aristocat hates virus

(02/02 13:53:55)Night-Tripper: Chinese New year

(02/02 13:53:59)Korov’ev: Some backers never finished the Blackbox survey, or completed it long after the due date; their rewards will shipped from Cyan directly, but only after all those who did complete their surveys got them.

(02/02 13:54:04)Sleeper Jan: need a hammer?

(02/02 13:54:05)Floyd: Build a Wall

(02/02 13:54:37)Tweek: Don’t need to build a Wall, there’s a perfectly good one in Gahreesen that’s going unused.

(02/02 13:54:46)Tai’lahr: hehe

(02/02 13:54:48)Night-Tripper: right on

(02/02 13:54:51)Korov’ev: And that`s it for #Myst25

(02/02 13:55:02)Floyd: I disagree that wall cannot be used

(02/02 13:55:15)Korov’ev: Now, we have an update on the D’ni Classes and Story Night, from Instructor Rehn!

(02/02 13:55:26)bella1: yay

(02/02 13:55:49)Ro”Jethhe: Barho claps his hands

(02/02 13:56:04)Korov’ev: Rehn?

(02/02 13:56:08)Night-Tripper: er flutters his wings

(02/02 13:56:10)Max: he’s having a nap?

(02/02 13:56:27)Korov’ev: r`Tayrtahn?

(02/02 13:57:19)Sleeper Jan: maybe

(02/02 13:57:25)shokhootahn Rehn: As usual, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(02/02 13:57:37)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(02/02 13:58:04)shokhootahn Rehn: Two more students for the current session have completed the 101 class!

(02/02 13:58:23)shokhootahn Rehn: There are still a few groups, at various stages learning the alphabet, time, and the suffixes.

(02/02 13:58:33)shokhootahn Rehn: while classes are in session, the Guild of Istructors’ Hood will be closed. As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(02/02 13:58:51)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to class times.

(02/02 13:59:08)shokhootahn Rehn: You can get those advertisements by adding him as a buddy and then sending him a PM with the word: advert

(02/02 13:59:09)shokhootahn Rehn:

(02/02 13:59:26)shokhootahn Rehn: If Magic Bot is not on-line, you can also PM Mimi Bot (KI #71459) the word, as well.

(02/02 13:59:40)shokhootahn Rehn: I am in the Hood most days at 10:00 KI time and 20:00 KI time for those students who have questions regarding the current lesson.

(02/02 13:59:57)shokhootahn Rehn: I’ll be announcing more graduates of the current classes at a future AGM. 🙂

(02/02 14:00:07)shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(02/02 14:00:08)shokhootahn Rehn:

(02/02 14:00:31)Korov’ev: none in queue

(02/02 14:01:03)shokhootahn Rehn: I guess not. Moving on…

(02/02 14:01:06)shokhootahn Rehn:

(02/02 14:01:11)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(02/02 14:01:12)Lama Kni bows

(02/02 14:01:26)shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.

(02/02 14:02:04)shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be finishing the events from The Fall.

(02/02 14:02:38)shokhootahn Rehn: Please note: due to the MOULa 9th anniversary, there will be no Story Night – Europe next week. Story Night – Europe will resume on February 16… barring any last-minute travel plans. You can always check the left imager in the Hood, the bots, or the forums… though, I don’t always remember to post updates in the forums.

(02/02 14:02:55)Mirphak: good night GB, take care

(02/02 14:03:12)shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in the game of Myst.

(02/02 14:03:25)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(02/02 14:03:35)Sleeper Jan: nini GB

(02/02 14:03:40)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.

(02/02 14:04:07)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.

(02/02 14:04:32)shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, ’tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(02/02 14:04:59)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(02/02 14:05:19)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(02/02 14:05:45)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED!

(02/02 14:05:55)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI mail so they were unable to be added.

(02/02 14:06:17)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to Story Night times.

(02/02 14:06:44)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(02/02 14:06:47)shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, both events (lessons and Story Nights) are listed on the GoMe calendar at https://bit.ly/GoMe_cal

(02/02 14:06:57)shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(02/02 14:07:01)Korov’ev: yes

(02/02 14:07:05)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Floyd.

(02/02 14:07:05)Korov’ev: [Floyd] question….when do the stories start over from the beginning?

(02/02 14:07:47)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is episodic, in nature. THere are a total of 104 stories, taking a full two years to complete.

(02/02 14:08:19)Korov’ev: it`s a long run!

(02/02 14:08:33)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night Europe is on story #50 and original Story Night is on story #67

(02/02 14:09:00)shokhootahn Rehn: So… we are about half-way through. 🙂

(02/02 14:09:15)Korov’ev: Thank you Rehn!

(02/02 14:09:42)

(02/02 14:09:46)shokhootahn Rehn: As an aside, I have been holding Story Night on a regular basis since October of 2007.

(02/02 14:11:00)Korov’ev: And with that, it’s time to wrap up this Meeting!

(02/02 14:11:07)Korov’ev: Here is the summary of this month’s events (times in KI time)…

(02/02 13:01:11) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(02/02 13:01:19) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(02/02 13:01:30) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(02/02 13:01:32) Max zips his lips
(02/02 13:01:33) Night-Tripper: also groundhogs day
(02/02 13:01:48) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(02/02 13:01:58) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(02/02 13:02:06) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of the Meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' brand new site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(02/02 13:02:21) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.
(02/02 13:02:39) Korov'ev: So, next week Uru Live will be NINE year old!
(02/02 13:02:48) shokhootahn Rehn cheers

(02/02 13:10:46) Max: So… I have a couple of Musical Events to inform you all about… Please wait with any questions you might have till I'm done…
(02/02 13:11:03) Max: The Sunday Music Sessions took a 'Pause' for a recharge… or to 'Reload' for a while… But the Sessions will continue again at the end of February… So the next Session [#12] will be on Sunday Feb. 24th… And more dates will be added to that later on…
(02/02 13:11:29) Max: The theme this time on 24th is “From Cover to Cover”… And I will mostly play [if not all of it] “covers”… And again, any suggestions or requests for great “covers” to play are most welcome!!!
(02/02 13:12:01) Max: Now… over to another music thing that has become a Yearly Event… The International Women's Day on March 8th [this year a Friday]… When we've always played music, all with & by female artists or groups…
(02/02 13:12:28) Max: This time I'd encourage All Our Female Explorers… girls & women or DJ's [wannabees] to STEP UP!…
(02/02 13:12:55) Max: SO… MAKE a Tracklist & PLAY… It's easy to stream, and RFD crew or Me can help you out with the details on that!
(02/02 13:13:13) Max: OR… MAKE a Tracklist… THEN any of us resident DJ's [who are on the URUTUNES] could play that for you…
(02/02 13:13:33) Max: OR… JUST make requests or suggestions for tracks to PLAY… And I can compile a session or two & play it all…
(02/02 13:14:08) Max: OR… ANY Combo of these three…
(02/02 13:14:24) Max: I'll put up some more detailed Info regarding all of this on the MOULa Forums soon'ish…
(02/02 13:14:41) Max: And lastly…
(02/02 13:14:55) Max: As time flies quickly around here… We have the International Mother Earth's Day coming up soon… That's on April 22nd… I think we can promise you all…
(02/02 13:15:20) Max: Something… 22nd is a Monday. So maybe the weekend 19th to 21st & 22nd is best suited for good measures for any Events… But more on that around April's AGM…
(02/02 13:15:48) Max: and that's enough for now, I think… any questions?
(02/02 13:15:55) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Kayara.
(02/02 13:15:55) Korov'ev: [Kayara] Do you mean female solo artists or female-only groups or also groups with maybe a female singer?
(02/02 13:16:12) Max: all of that counts, sure
(02/02 13:16:50) Max: or duets male/female is ok too, I think

(02/02 13:17:42) Korov'ev: While people are partying, the Guild of Hax– Writers has been busy scheming…
(02/02 13:17:57) Rabbit: ooooooh
(02/02 13:17:59) Korov'ev: and their latest plot produced a new version of Korman, the Age creation plugin for Blender!
(02/02 13:18:09) Acorn1: Yay!
(02/02 13:18:14) TGMChrist: Great
(02/02 13:18:15) Korov'ev: Version 0.08 focuses on ease of use and intuitive extensions of existing functions;
(02/02 13:18:24) Korov'ev: you can now copy/paste modifiers, pack Age Python scripts automatically, and generate the Journal files automatically.
(02/02 13:18:25) Night-Tripper: ?
(02/02 13:18:32) Rabbit: is there anything intuitive about blender?
(02/02 13:18:42) Korov'ev: very handy, technical stuff 🙂
(02/02 13:19:00) Lushun: cool
(02/02 13:19:05) J'Kla: Only when you have been using it a few years
(02/02 13:19:12) Rabbit starts to laugh
(02/02 13:19:13) Korov'ev: they do love to change the GUI from time to time
(02/02 13:19:15) Night-Tripper will stick to exploring
(02/02 13:19:31) Korov'ev: For more info, check the forum thread at https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6982
(02/02 13:19:49) Korov'ev: And speaking of Age creation, this year has had a promising start, with plenty of new Ages been announced!
(02/02 13:19:51) Grandbad will just stick
(02/02 13:20:09) Korov'ev: Not only that, but things are (somewhat) moving on the Intangibles front, the project to complete Cyan's Ages and bring fan Ages to MOULa.
(02/02 13:20:24) Night-Tripper: allright
(02/02 13:20:26) Korov'ev claps his hands

(02/02 13:22:00) Rabbit is turning purple
(02/02 13:22:08) Korov'ev: D`ni jazz, that is
(02/02 13:22:18) Max: I kinda like jazz nowadays…
(02/02 13:22:22) Tweek: So modeling work on the Gateway Nexus has now been completed. I am currently just doing some final checks over it to make sure nothing is missing or messed up before I send it to Hoikas and Del to hook up.
(02/02 13:22:40) Rabbit exhales
(02/02 13:22:59) Tweek: For those of you who may not be aware, the Gateway Nexus was one of several projects being worked on that will serve as an access point for fan content on Cyan's shard.
(02/02 13:23:03) Acorn1: Woot!

(02/02 13:24:22) Tweek: I've recently posted some in game screenshots over at my Age Building page on FB – https://www.facebook.com/agesoftweek/
(02/02 13:25:01) Aristocat is drinking some milk

(02/02 13:25:20) Rabbit cheers
(02/02 13:25:22) Lushun: 🙂
(02/02 13:25:30) Kayara: wooooot
(02/02 13:25:30) cjherkeless: wow.
(02/02 13:25:31) TGMChrist: WOW
(02/02 13:25:36) Grandbad passes the mints around
(02/02 13:25:36) Max: oooowh… amazing! how's RAWA doing?
(02/02 13:26:06) Tweek: He's not 100% still. You can keep up with how he's doing on his Caring Bridge page.
(02/02 13:26:38) Tweek: So despite the seemingly standstill atmosphere behind Intangibles, stuff is still moving forward 🙂
(02/02 13:26:57) Acorn1: Great news! Thanks, Tweek!
(02/02 13:27:06) Korov'ev cheers
(02/02 13:27:07) Grandbad claps

(02/02 13:27:14) Tweek: Secondly, Eder Fahsee. For those of you who were at the AGM last month you will be familiar with Eder Fahsee, to those of you who weren't Eder Fahsee is an Age I have Written to celebrate Myst's 25th Anniversary.
(02/02 13:27:14) Minasunda claps her hands
(02/02 13:27:16) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(02/02 13:27:22) Theo cheers

If you're interested in contributing to this project please check out http://dniexplorer.com/fahsee and if you wish to submit something you can do so via the contact form on that page.
(02/02 13:27:43) Tweek: Deadline for submissions has now been pushed back to the 9th of March 2019 to give people a bit more time to submit something.
(02/02 13:28:19) Lama Kni claps his hands
(02/02 13:28:22) bella1 cheers
(02/02 13:28:26) Rabbit claps her hands
(02/02 13:28:34) Tweek: And lastly, an interim build of Fahets is due for release soon.
(02/02 13:28:34) Lushun: great impact on my life, sure 🙂
(02/02 13:29:11) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Theo.
(02/02 13:29:11) Korov'ev: [Theo] So, where will that Gateway Nexus be installed first?
(02/02 13:29:48) Tweek: This interim build is based on the first version of Fahets but with updated textures and geometry to bring it more in line with the newer build. This interim build is a stop gap before I release the version 2 which makes the Age a lot larger.
(02/02 13:30:24) Tweek: The Gateway Nexus when Hoikas and Del have done their stuff will be sent over to the Open Uru guys for testing before moving to Cyan's shard
(02/02 13:31:27) Tweek: Any other questions?
(02/02 13:31:39) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Theo.
(02/02 13:31:40) Korov'ev: [Theo] That shard of Cyan's being Minkata Shard or Here?
(02/02 13:31:47) Tweek: Here
(02/02 13:31:50) Floyd: Sounds like I should be funneling my money over to you other than 59 volts?
(02/02 13:32:03) Korov'ev: so Minkata, then MOULa
(02/02 13:32:08) Tweek: Yes
(02/02 13:32:23) Theo cheers
(02/02 13:32:25) Korov'ev: possibly Gehn before that?
(02/02 13:32:49) Tweek: Don't know Gehn just adds Fan Ages anyway..so they probably wouldn't need the Gateway
(02/02 13:33:08) Korov'ev: right
(02/02 13:33:17) Tweek: Especially seeming they are more selective on what Ages they add.
(02/02 13:34:02) Korov'ev: hopefully less than that 🙂
(02/02 13:34:12) Korov'ev: oops
(02/02 13:34:25) Korov'ev claps his hands
(02/02 13:34:25) Korov'ev: Thank you Tweek!

(02/02 13:35:06) Korov'ev: But there's more!
(02/02 13:35:15) Korov'ev: Writer matthornb recently posted on Facebook about the five (5) Ages he's been working on: Sevkor, D'ni Temple, Eder Vikae, Nay'elas, and Alepahnay.
(02/02 13:35:21) Floyd: no way!!!!
(02/02 13:35:36) Korov'ev: Part of D'ni Temple (area 1) is already available for offline and online visitors, but will be vastly expanded with areas 2 and 3;
(02/02 13:35:52) Rabbit: when?
(02/02 13:35:53) Korov'ev: you might have heard about Sevkor in discussions about porting fan Ages into MOULa, as one of the proposed ways to access them (the more the better, I'd say);
(02/02 13:35:53) Night-Tripper: where?
(02/02 13:36:07) Korov'ev: Eder Vikae, Nay'elas, and Alepahnay are all new Ages, loosely inspired by old concepts.
(02/02 13:36:25) Aristocat is looking forward
(02/02 13:36:30) Korov'ev: Very SoonTM 🙂
(02/02 13:36:35) Night-Tripper is panting with excitment
(02/02 13:36:37) Korov'ev: On top of that, he'll release a Unity remake of Sehv T'devokan, his standalone game, including a version that can be played in a web browser.
(02/02 13:36:54) Korov'ev: He is planning to release them very soon for offline Uru and any shards willing to host them (as Korman allows to easily export for both types).
(02/02 13:37:08) Rabbit: wow
(02/02 13:37:17) Korov'ev: You can read more about matthornb's creations at: http://www.mystfanart.org/myfanart.html
(02/02 13:37:29) Rabbit wonders about the endlessly elastic definition of 'soon'
(02/02 13:37:36) Korov'ev: Speaking of fan Ages, the ultimate goal is to get them on MOULa itself!
(02/02 13:37:37) Night-Tripper: lol
(02/02 13:37:38) Lushun: lol
(02/02 13:37:49) Korov'ev: The last step before that is getting them to Minkata.
(02/02 13:38:03) Korov'ev claps his hands
(02/02 13:38:03) Korov'ev: So, let's hear the latest news from OpenUru's shard from… rarified!

(02/02 13:39:09) Mirphak: shorah rarified
(02/02 13:39:16) rarified: It's been a long time — far too long — since I last took an opportunity
(02/02 13:39:25) Max: it's like we've got a second X-mas…
(02/02 13:39:55) Floyd: begotten bootie
(02/02 13:40:02) rarified: to talk to you.
(02/02 13:40:22) rarified: [Apologies for some duplicates sent to individuals, it's my first time cut-n-pasting]
(02/02 13:40:46) rarified: Today, I'd like to give what I'm calling a “State of Minkata” report.
(02/02 13:40:58) Floyd: yay
(02/02 13:41:05) rarified: There are many reasons for delays in development on the Minkata
(02/02 13:41:25) rarified: shard including the fact that the game server MOSS needed to
(02/02 13:41:54) rarified: be rebuilt. For more details on that, please see my post at
(02/02 13:42:09) rarified: http://forums.openuru.org/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=1017
(02/02 13:42:22) rarified: Now for the current “State of Minkata”.
(02/02 13:42:35) rarified: Since the beginning of the year I have been able to spend a fair amount
(02/02 13:43:00) rarified: of time trying to narrow down the possible causes for the Minkata bug that
(02/02 13:43:10) rarified: people have encountered since last fall about age state not being saved.
(02/02 13:43:25) rarified: See http://forums.openuru.org/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=1012
(02/02 13:43:31) Acorn1: Yup!
(02/02 13:43:36) rarified: During this time I've disabled all previously existing accounts
(02/02 13:43:45) rarified: on Minkata, which makes it much easier to debug things with a new
(02/02 13:43:55) rarified: Vault. Minkata is still locked down today. The existing Vault has
(02/02 13:44:04) rarified: been saved and I will try to restore it when I've fixed the bug.
(02/02 13:44:13) rarified: I am continuing to work on it, now with a fairly consistent schedule of
(02/02 13:44:21) rarified: time each week. I don't know what the problem is yet, so I can't give
(02/02 13:44:27) rarified: you a schedule on a fix. I do know I have a few more days of work before
(02/02 13:44:36) rarified: I can test an updated MOSS.
(02/02 13:44:44) rarified: I've written about these issues in more detail in my post and hope that
(02/02 13:44:52) rarified: the coders in the community will take a look and see if they have any
(02/02 13:44:59) rarified: suggestions or assistance they can offer.
(02/02 13:45:06) rarified: Once these issue can be resolved, more testing will be needed and then
(02/02 13:45:14) rarified: I have some fan created content ready for testing.
(02/02 13:45:20) Acorn1: Ooh!
(02/02 13:45:21) rarified: So in conclusion, I'm saying that while you have not heard anything
(02/02 13:45:30) rarified: from me about Minkata and Fan Content for a long time, there has been
(02/02 13:45:39) rarified: considerable work being done to reach the point where we can deploy
(02/02 13:45:45) rarified: it in a testing framework. And once that barrier has been broken,
(02/02 13:45:52) rarified: the community can start working with Cyan to finish the bridge to MOULa
(02/02 13:46:02) Floyd: we can break it again
(02/02 13:46:02) rarified: Thank you.

(02/02 13:50:52) Korov'ev: (brace yourselves for a wall of text)
(02/02 13:51:03) Korov'ev: The #Myst25 DVDs have all been shipped; if you don't have yours yet, you should try contacting support@cyan.com (although sending more than one is of no use and might contribute to slowing down things). Cyan will reach out to any backers whose DVDs are being returned due to various delivery issues.
(02/02 13:51:28) Night-Tripper: just got my prize
(02/02 13:51:36) Korov'ev: Inkwells and linking books are being shipped separately, as doing otherwise would have delayed shipping by several months for everyone, with an increased chance being damaged. If you do receive damaged rewards, or with missing pieces, contact support@cyan.com and include pictures of the damages.
(02/02 13:51:58) Tweek: Got my Myst books the other day..they are stunning.
(02/02 13:52:06) Rabbit: oui Jan
(02/02 13:52:15) Korov'ev: (still waiting mine…)
(02/02 13:52:21) Korov'ev: If you haven't received the physical rewards, don't panic; if you have the tracking information, first try contacting your local post office. US backers are getting their books and inkwells a few weeks later than other countries.
(02/02 13:52:23) rarified taps foot.
(02/02 13:52:48) Korov'ev: Canadian backers are also getting the DVDs later than most other countries, in some cases after the books. If you haven't received them yet, don't lose hope, and try contacting your local post office.
(02/02 13:52:57) Aristocat treasures his myst books
(02/02 13:53:12) Korov'ev: Also, some backers have reported getting a virus alert when they tried to plug their linking books into their computers. It's not clear how serious the alerts are yet; putting the specific file in a Windows 10 virtual machine didn't produce any suspicious activity.
(02/02 13:53:18) Rabbit: the problem is Canada Customs
(02/02 13:53:34) Night-Tripper: sigh
(02/02 13:53:39) Korov'ev: It appears that only specific batches have them, and it's been difficult to get informations from the production factory. The investigation is still ongoing.
(02/02 13:53:53) Aristocat hates virus
(02/02 13:53:55) Night-Tripper: Chinese New year
(02/02 13:53:59) Korov'ev: Some backers never finished the Blackbox survey, or completed it long after the due date; their rewards will shipped from Cyan directly, but only after all those who did complete their surveys got them.
(02/02 13:54:04) Sleeper Jan: need a hammer?
(02/02 13:54:05) Floyd: Build a Wall
(02/02 13:54:37) Tweek: Don't need to build a Wall, there's a perfectly good one in Gahreesen that's going unused.

(02/02 13:58:04) shokhootahn Rehn: Two more students for the current session have completed the 101 class!
(02/02 13:58:11) Rabbit cheers
(02/02 13:58:23) shokhootahn Rehn: There are still a few groups, at various stages learning the alphabet, time, and the suffixes.
(02/02 13:58:33) shokhootahn Rehn: while classes are in session, the Guild of Istructors' Hood will be closed. As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(02/02 13:58:39) bella1 cheers
(02/02 13:58:51) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot's (KI #27527) advertisements to announce last-minute changes to class times.
(02/02 13:59:08) shokhootahn Rehn: You can get those advertisements by adding him as a buddy and then sending him a PM with the word: advert
(02/02 13:59:09) shokhootahn Rehn:
(02/02 13:59:26) shokhootahn Rehn: If Magic Bot is not on-line, you can also PM Mimi Bot (KI #71459) the word, as well.
(02/02 13:59:40) shokhootahn Rehn: I am in the Hood most days at 10:00 KI time and 20:00 KI time for those students who have questions regarding the current lesson.
(02/02 13:59:57) shokhootahn Rehn: I'll be announcing more graduates of the current classes at a future AGM. 🙂
(02/02 14:00:05) Rabbit cheers
(02/02 14:00:07) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(02/02 14:01:03) shokhootahn Rehn: I guess not. Moving on…
(02/02 14:01:06) shokhootahn Rehn:
(02/02 14:01:11) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(02/02 14:01:12) Lama Kni bows
(02/02 14:01:26) shokhootahn Rehn: Due to my traveling, Story Night – Europe is at a different stage of the history than is original Story Night.
(02/02 14:02:04) shokhootahn Rehn: For Story Night – Europe, we will be finishing the events from The Fall.
(02/02 14:02:38) shokhootahn Rehn: Please note: due to the MOULa 9th anniversary, there will be no Story Night – Europe next week. Story Night – Europe will resume on February 16… barring any last-minute travel plans. You can always check the left imager in the Hood, the bots, or the forums… though, I don't always remember to post updates in the forums.
(02/02 14:02:55) Mirphak: good night GB, take care
(02/02 14:03:12) shokhootahn Rehn: For original Story Night, we will be continue with the events in the game of Myst.
(02/02 14:03:25) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(02/02 14:03:35) Sleeper Jan: nini GB
(02/02 14:03:40) 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.
(02/02 14:04:07) 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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later. Again, I use Magic Bot to advertise changes to Story Night times for both Europe and original.
(02/02 14:04:32) shokhootahn Rehn: Times for original Story Night (Saturdays at 23:30 KI time) are unaffected by my traveling. However, they are affected by power outages due to thunderstorms… which, unfortunately, 'tis always the season. Should this be the case, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(02/02 14:04:59) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(02/02 14:05:19) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat.
