Could you please remove me from your ignore list on ICQ and on here?
Not that I have anything for this Auction but I may have for next month.

Mesanna was on Siege last evening together with him, but very short time.

I will miss you and so will Siege.
I wish your the best in your new life.

That's all fine, maybe someday, one will be on the auction

If you still have one left and no GIL need and the one asking for days in Gen chat got one, I would love to buy one.

I wish the best for you Sarga, you know that, but you also know, this make me very sad, as I don't believe that is right for you.
I do respect your choice and hope it will work for you.

Your friend Freja

WOW very nice, hope it will end up in the hands of someone who will use it for a great shop or other community stuff.

Can Nadir go to the Auction?
Yes I know he is HI-5, but I also know him as a honorable person. If he say, he will come in peace, he will.
I feel he at least deserve a yes or no, when he comes here and ask polite.

Not sure about that, I rather see people doing it for the reward of seeing people enjoy their event. The wish for making an event and be a governor should came from the heart. I just fear it will have a bad effect.
I did not want to dumb your ideas, any brainstorming is good and all ideas should be considered.

I know that.

You say, "as many people would have no desire to run something like that"

Here it is I say, "limited only by imagination". An event do not need to be something big, that take a lot of hours to set up, it can be way more simple, like make the best backpack event, where you build a scenery in a backpack and then choose a Winner. Or you can make a hunter event, kill the biggest bear found around Cove or make a naked murderer run from Trinsic to Britain, they may only follow the road and only move when alive. If they die, they get ressed and move on from their body. Vinner is the one who get first to Brit bank.

If a governor / Mayor /Captain / Lord etc choose a date for his community to make an event, I'm sure most can make it.

We will need a co-ordinator like Kelmo to follow up and help them remember dato and get needed info in the event calender.

I have learned, if you trust people and believe they can do it, they will do it. If you show them dis trust, they will give up, as they feel you expect them to fail. Naybe they just need help with some good ideas.

You say "The regular governors are re-elected every six months."

I think it may be a good thing if the Co-ordinator do follow up with the other Communities, to see if they still have same "Governor" or it is time for them to choose a new one.

I look forward to see Kelmo's report from second meeting as I could not make it to that.

"Real" evil people would be unlikely to call themselves "dread lord" or "dread captain". They may call themselves lord or captain, but it is the population at large, or merely historians, who would give them the dread label.

Maybe but what I wanted to say is, it is important they are a part of this council too. An evil guild, busy, trying to take part in this and trying to make events too will add much more to Siege than an evil guild, who feel they are treated as scum and not invited to be a part of it.

At the first meeting, we was speaking about each "governor", lets call it sub community, will try to make at least one event a year (half year?), limited only by imagination, I could see a lot different kind of events, some poor good and safe, others more evil or PvP minded.

If we can get this to work, Siege will get something unique, no other shard can offer new and returning players.

I also believe it will bring RP back on Siege as all will try to add something unique for their little part of the community.

First, drop the idea about a king, it do not make sense if we want the shard to work together.
A Council is ok but it could have a inner circle of 3-5 leaders. Not sure if Council is the right word

It is a RP game with both good and evil, that mean Brigands, Outlaws, Pirates, Vampires, Undead, Orcs,  Elves, Gargyles, etc may be a part of it. I can't see how it could work with 1 King.

Many PK/PvP guilds can/will not accept a King but may agree to choose a Dread Lord, Dread Captain or something to be a part of an inner circle of the council.

We need some brainstorming for how this can work for all. It's easy for the "good" guilds to accept a king but for many of the "evil" guilds, it will go against their RP.

I really would love to see the fun evil guilds back, who did not love interact with ORC in the past?

b) Future King's Councils should include player communities (such as Gilfane and Safe Haven) and other non-Britannian communities such as Zento, Luna, Umbra, etc, and possibly other groups such as the Savages, etc.

That was what was in my mind, when I did call to the meeting, except, I don't believe in one king for the whole land. I know I came off very wrong with my inviting, I'm sorry for that.

d) It was mentioned that past attempts at trying to improve Siege had always met with failure because there are always small groups and individuals with their own agendas and jealousies who try and throw a spanner in the works (for example, "the NEW books").

We are all human, sometimes we do crazy stuff, no need to dig up old drama as the case with the NEW books. Sometimes people get frustrated and act weird.

e) In the end it was decided that the best initial step would be to contact Mesanna and find out exactly what her intentions are with regard to Siege's EM and events. Once that is established we can then better plot the way ahead.

That's a good move but I also believe we as shard can find a way to make a council for the shard, without sharing one king.

Insert Quote

With a shard like SP, we should rather try to make it a republic of Roman style with two consuls who have veto-powers on each others.

This seem like an idea, even when 2 consuls may not be enough.

Merry Christmas to you all and Happy New Year


No snow this Christmas

This December had been a wonderful Christmas month so far, I really love that. It's so great.
Thanks to Santa and his elves, devs for the festival and the players for bringing the Christmas spirit to Siege Perilous.
