(09/28 21:03:56) Jules Lavisham: Evenin' Cal
(09/28 21:04:10) Jules Lavisham: Nexus trouble?
(09/28 21:04:20) Calum Traveler: yeah hood wasnt up on the board
(09/28 21:04:36) Calum Traveler: is now though

(09/28 21:04:48) Jules Lavisham: I always wonder how that works
(09/28 21:05:09) Jules Lavisham: I recently joined, so I have a direct line these days
(09/28 21:05:13) Calum Traveler: sensible
(09/28 21:05:27) Jules Lavisham: Do they drop off the nexus sometimes?
(09/28 21:05:38) [BUDDIES] From Calum Traveler in Great Tree's(3) Hood: town hall is in 15 minutes, for anyone attending.
(09/28 21:05:44) Calum Traveler: sometimes, yes
(09/28 21:05:48) Calum Traveler: board only shows so many hoods
(09/28 21:05:58) Calum Traveler: if more hoods are active, less active ones fall off
(09/28 21:06:06) Calum Traveler: only GoGreeters hood is 'pinned' as it were.
(09/28 21:06:19) Jules Lavisham: Hm. Handy to know, that.
(09/28 21:06:30) Jules Lavisham: Glad I joined now
(09/28 21:06:33) Calum Traveler:

(09/28 21:06:48) Calum Traveler: yeah, Mystlander's had to pull out of the Rei'schu stuff for the moment due to surface obligations.
(09/28 21:06:52) NoMore waves hello
(09/28 21:07:00) Calum Traveler waves hello
(09/28 21:07:01) Jules Lavisham: Shorah everyone!
(09/28 21:07:03) Jules Lavisham waves hello
(09/28 21:07:10) ALotOf: oh hi No bud
(09/28 21:07:13) ALotOf waves hello
(09/28 21:07:23) Jules Lavisham: Got some time before we kick off
(09/28 21:07:29) Calum Traveler: mhm
(09/28 21:07:36) Superabbit: Shorah
(09/28 21:07:47) Jules Lavisham: We have actually given some consideration to moving it back ten minutes to hit the half past start
(09/28 21:07:57) Calum Traveler: we'll do a vote about that today
(09/28 21:07:59) Jules Lavisham: Nice round time and all
(09/28 21:08:16) Superabbit: I'm kinda new, what is the purpose of the Town Hall Meeting?
(09/28 21:08:51) Jules Lavisham: Glad you're joining us for the first time, Superabbit!
(09/28 21:08:56) Calum Traveler: town halls are meant to be recaps of ongoing events,
(09/28 21:09:49) Red Gunner: It's all an illusion, lol
(09/28 21:09:50) Superabbit: Different from AGM?
(09/28 21:09:57) Calum Traveler: similar to the All Guilds Meets on the first saturdays of each month,
(09/28 21:10:00) Calum Traveler: but different, yes
(09/28 21:10:09) Thumbs up from Superabbit
(09/28 21:10:32) [BUDDIES] To Buddies: Town Hall starting in ten minutes in the Great Tree Hood! There may be biscuits also.
(09/28 21:10:42) Calum Traveler: AGMs focus on upcoming events, meanwhile Town Halls focus mostly on previous events,
(09/28 21:10:51) Superabbit: Got it
(09/28 21:11:04) Superabbit: Question before the meeting starts
(09/28 21:11:09) Jules Lavisham: Go for it
(09/28 21:11:50) Superabbit: Is it okay to post links to my music site on my Hood imager?
(09/28 21:12:08) Calum Traveler: many folks advertise on their hood imagers,
(09/28 21:12:19) Superabbit: Okay, great
(09/28 21:12:42) Jules Lavisham: Hey there Tenny!
(09/28 21:12:47) Tiernan Quinlan: Shorah all!
(09/28 21:12:48) Jules Lavisham waves hello
(09/28 21:12:48) Superabbit: Part of my motivation for having a Musicians Guild Hood
(09/28 21:13:01) Tiernan Quinlan waves hello
(09/28 21:13:03) Calum Traveler: shorah, tenny
(09/28 21:13:07) Jules Lavisham: Musician's Guild Hood, you say
(09/28 21:13:14) Superabbit: Indeed, yes
(09/28 21:13:20) Superabbit: It's a thing
(09/28 21:13:22) Tiernan Quinlan: How is ever'one t'day?
(09/28 21:13:49) Jules Lavisham: Keeping busy. New semester on the surface
(09/28 21:13:50) Calum Traveler: tired, got another meeting after town hall
(09/28 21:13:57) Calum Traveler: i think we're also doing some QNA today too?
(09/28 21:14:14) Superabbit: I didn't know, but there was a minor Guild, Guild of Musicians
(09/28 21:14:15) Jules Lavisham: Yeah, why not Cal
(09/28 21:14:52) Calum Traveler: shorah, murry,
(09/28 21:14:59) Robert Murry waves hello
(09/28 21:15:01) Jules Lavisham: How do, Dr Murry
(09/28 21:15:20) Cygna: shorah
(09/28 21:15:27) Robert Murry: Very fine and you Dr. Lavisham?
(09/28 21:15:28) Jules Lavisham: Shorah Cygna
(09/28 21:15:45) Robert Murry: Shorah everybody
(09/28 21:15:46) Ereshkigal: Hi Cygna and others! Hi ules!!
(09/28 21:15:50) Ereshkigal: *Jules
(09/28 21:15:57) Ereshkigal: Hy Murry!
(09/28 21:15:57) Jules Lavisham: Keeping busy. As I was saying to Tenny, new semester at the Uni. Back on the teaching duties.
(09/28 21:16:05) Jules Lavisham: Shorah Ereshkigal
(09/28 21:16:19) Ereshkigal: What do you teach again, Jules?
(09/28 21:16:25) NoMore: so you got me here for so talk with a bunch of dudes this time ALotOf...?
(09/28 21:16:26) ALotOf: It's 'negotiations with the people of Reischu' NoMore... but not only... come on be a bit curious to learn something new...
(09/28 21:16:35) Jules Lavisham: Classical Civilizations, Eresh
(09/28 21:16:48) Robert Murry: I honestly can say that I don't miss that.
(09/28 21:17:07) Ereshkigal: ooh, beautiful, Jules!
(09/28 21:17:23) Jules Lavisham: Been trying to get a syllabus on this place going for years. Never quite managed to get it off the ground.
(09/28 21:17:44) Tiernan Quinlan: I've been busy tryin' t' make my hood clean enough to make grandmama happy. Heh.
(09/28 21:17:49) Tiernan Quinlan chuckles.
(09/28 21:17:51) Jules Lavisham: The whole business in 2007 spooked the higher-ups a bit. Not too enthusiastic about having students down here.
(09/28 21:17:52) angelmyst: hiya
(09/28 21:18:22) Tiernan Quinlan: Aside from helpin' folks with th' inevitable bumps and bruises tha' explorin' brings.
(09/28 21:18:27) Robert Murry: Let me know if I can help you with that Jules.
(09/28 21:18:31) Ereshkigal: I can imagine it's difficult to get enugh people interested in D'ni history. D'ni is an ut-of-the-way place, and quite literally not really part f human history
(09/28 21:18:46) Tiernan Quinlan: Aye!
(09/28 21:18:51) NoMore: what were you up to anyhow, ALotOf... havent seen you around in a while...
(09/28 21:18:52) ALotOf: some 2003 game engine disassembly analyze, to hopefulle be able to mod some game data,,,
(09/28 21:19:57) Robert Murry: So Tenny, when is your grandmother arriving?
(09/28 21:20:22) NoMore: and?
(09/28 21:20:23) ALotOf: well got somewhere... can cut the game level files into it's components, but not yet make out what the data in each container is, NoMore...
(09/28 21:20:33) Tiernan Quinlan: Around th' 7th, I'm thinkin'. She's driving out from Sedona.
(09/28 21:20:39) Jules Lavisham: Right, we're due to start at twenty past, but we a nice burst of arrivals last month nearer the half past mark, so I'll give it a few more
(09/28 21:20:50) Calum Traveler: ah, jules beat me to it
(09/28 21:20:51) Calum Traveler: lol
(09/28 21:21:31) NoMore: so hope to play some real games with you soon, ALotOf...
(09/28 21:21:32) ALotOf: will be ready, NoMore...
(09/28 21:21:34) Calum Traveler: As a reminder, previous chatlogs of other townhalls can be found on our webforums,
(09/28 21:21:44) Calum Traveler: viewforum.php?f=8
(09/28 21:22:02) Jules Lavisham: Along with other assorted goings on
(09/28 21:22:37) Ereshkigal: Are you stuck, Aurelias?
(09/28 21:23:09) Jules Lavisham has a quick last minute flick through of his notes
(09/28 21:23:18) NoMore: Hi Stuck
(09/28 21:23:20) ALotOf: lol
(09/28 21:24:36) Calum Traveler gets a drink of water quickly...
(09/28 21:25:31) Jules Lavisham: Shorah IwonK!
(09/28 21:25:51) Robert Murry: Shorah Iwonk

(09/28 21:25:53) Tiernan Quinlan: Oh, my favorite cookie maker is here!
(09/28 21:26:03) Jules Lavisham: Heh
(09/28 21:26:09) Calum Traveler: shorah, iwonk
(09/28 21:26:14) Robert Murry: My favorite Scotch theif is here.
(09/28 21:26:37) Jules Lavisham: Yes, that reminds me Robert, must give the cabinet in Chiso a replenish
(09/28 21:26:42) Calum Traveler: yeah, i think the vote we have for today is a good idea, Jules.
(09/28 21:26:56) Jules Lavisham: Agreed. It makes sense.
(09/28 21:26:59) angelmyst: Is there information on the descendants of the D'ni who made it to the surface? can you send me a link in a KI mail if you have anything.
(09/28 21:27:01) Robert Murry: At least she leaves cookies behind.
(09/28 21:27:18) Tiernan Quinlan chuckles.
(09/28 21:27:20) Calum Traveler: we dont really have much on anyone specific, angelmyst,
(09/28 21:27:24) Calum Traveler: atleast, im not aware of anything
(09/28 21:27:34) angelmyst: Been doing some research for my next adventure...and finding some D'ni descendants would be wild
(09/28 21:27:44) Robert Murry: Yes Jules. My nephew should be getting in his supply from Zandi soon.
(09/28 21:27:48) NoMore: descendant cookies?
(09/28 21:28:00) ALotOf: hope not.
(09/28 21:28:04) Jules Lavisham: Definitely an interesting subject, angelmyst. If anything turns up in my own reading, I'll drop you a line.
(09/28 21:28:06) Calum Traveler blinks, having misheard 'dancestor' for a moment...
(09/28 21:28:12) angelmyst: great.
(09/28 21:28:17) Calum Traveler shakes head and gets mind out of the fandom gutters...
(09/28 21:28:19) Tiernan Quinlan: Aye, Angel! I'd definitely like to talk to some medical folks about D'ni medicine!
(09/28 21:28:46) Tiernan Quinlan: My own research has kind of gotten side-lined with how busy things have been lately.
(09/28 21:28:46) Jules Lavisham: Right, couple more minutes for the stragglers.
(09/28 21:28:59) angelmyst: A lot of the medicine is similar to that of the Native Americans...so I have been lead to understnad.
(09/28 21:29:09) Calum Traveler: i think we can probably go over the ground rules though
(09/28 21:29:12) cameo: straggler here!
(09/28 21:29:24) Calum Traveler: as always, yall know the AGM Rules, and we run something similar.
(09/28 21:29:26) Tiernan Quinlan: Aye, aye! It's wonderful, actually! I studied some Navajo medicine when I was at ASU.
(09/28 21:29:40) ALotOf salutes
(09/28 21:29:40) NoMore salutes
(09/28 21:29:44) Calum Traveler: big one is dont press the blue button,
(09/28 21:29:54) Thumbs up from Tiernan Quinlan
(09/28 21:30:04) angelmyst: I am a student of NAtural medicine...and have found many helps in Native wriitings.
(09/28 21:30:05) Superabbit: I actually don't know the AGM rules, but I'll keep my mouth shut until I know it's okay
(09/28 21:30:09) Calum Traveler: ah,
(09/28 21:30:12) Calum Traveler: a refresher then
(09/28 21:30:18) Calum Traveler: the standard AGM rules are:
(09/28 21:30:52) Calum Traveler: "Let the speakers speak uncontested, try to keep chatter to a minimum, forwards questions to the Moderator" me, in this case. "and dont press the blue button."
(09/28 21:31:09) Calum Traveler: we're a bit looser though,
(09/28 21:31:23) Calum Traveler: seriously, just dont press the blue button lol
(09/28 21:31:29) Jules Lavisham: Yeah, we tend to run a reasonably relaxed ship around here.
(09/28 21:31:40) Calum Traveler: shall we start, jules?
(09/28 21:31:44) Superabbit: I guess I shouldn't press the blue button....
(09/28 21:31:56) Jules Lavisham: Yes, I reckon now will do it.
(09/28 21:32:12) Jules Lavisham: Shorah everybody, and welcome to number four in our explorer Town Halls!
(09/28 21:32:47) Jules Lavisham: Hope you're all doing well and got the most out of the summer warmth while it was still around.
(09/28 21:33:05) Calum Traveler: what do you mean? It's still summer weather on the surface where i am.
(09/28 21:33:12) Calum Traveler: high 70s.
(09/28 21:33:19) cameo:

(09/28 21:33:20) Calum Traveler sweats a bit just thinking about it...
(09/28 21:33:28) cameo: not hot enough for me
(09/28 21:33:34) Calum Traveler hopes for some cooler weather...
(09/28 21:33:37) Jules Lavisham: The UK is envious, I can assure you Cal.
(09/28 21:33:47) Calum Traveler: fair,
(09/28 21:33:48) Tiernan Quinlan: Heh. Same f' those of us from Arizona, I'd say.
(09/28 21:33:49) NoMore: rainy...
(09/28 21:33:50) ALotOf: days...
(09/28 21:33:58) Jules Lavisham: So, we've done our usual recap of the rules,
(09/28 21:34:13) cameo: and mondays always bring me down
(09/28 21:34:25) Jules Lavisham: and as with the previous TH's, transcripts will be posted to the Beneath forums for future reference.
(09/28 21:34:45) ALotOf: mondays?
(09/28 21:34:46) Jules Lavisham: Right, all that said, let's crack on.
(09/28 21:34:50) cameo shutting up now
(09/28 21:34:57) NoMore: hehe...
(09/28 21:35:07) Jules Lavisham: We've recently had a check in with Benavud,
(09/28 21:35:18) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
(09/28 21:35:24) Jules Lavisham: who as is my understanding recently visited Kadish Tolesa with several explorers
(09/28 21:35:42) Jules Lavisham: Let me see... D'ni Seeker 5,Isa Mouski and Mystlander.
(09/28 21:35:50) NoMore: is he cool? he is I hope...
(09/28 21:36:15) Jules Lavisham: According to their accounts, he was much more familiar with this age than the others he's visited thus far.
(09/28 21:36:38) Jules Lavisham: Notably, he remembers having a friend travel with him there,
(09/28 21:36:48) Ereshkigal: Has he remembered anything more since? I also saw him remembering some songs at Fil's some time ago
(09/28 21:36:56) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
(09/28 21:37:01) Jules Lavisham: although he doesn't seem to remember anything about the friend in question when asked about it.
(09/28 21:37:18) Tiernan Quinlan: No description, Jules?
(09/28 21:37:25) Calum Traveler: Ben's memory regarding his amnesia might be heavily trauma related, i fear.
(09/28 21:37:26) Tiernan Quinlan: Hair, eye color? Height?
(09/28 21:37:30) Jules Lavisham: Afraid not, Tenny.
(09/28 21:37:33) Tiernan Quinlan sighs.
(09/28 21:37:49) Jules Lavisham: Still, does represent a potential lead to be followed up.
(09/28 21:37:52) Tiernan Quinlan: I wonder if I might be able to help him with tha'.
(09/28 21:37:57) Calum Traveler: anything that seems to be a shakeup from what he considers 'normal' seems terrifying to him, last I talked with Ben...
(09/28 21:38:07) Calum Traveler: though, considering the *last* time I talked with Ben....
(09/28 21:38:12) Calum Traveler glances at Tenny meaningfully
(09/28 21:38:19) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
(09/28 21:38:29) Tiernan Quinlan: Poor Ben. I've not seen him since.
(09/28 21:38:45) Jules Lavisham: I myself recently visited the basement of the CIty Library with Ben
(09/28 21:39:02) Calum Traveler: i think that was a bit before the next bit, which... we'll get to,
(09/28 21:39:07) Jules Lavisham: Just to see if anything could be jogged loose in respect of this friend,
(09/28 21:39:14) Jules Lavisham: or indeed anything else.
(09/28 21:39:25) Jules Lavisham: Unfortuntately nothing turned up there as of yet,
(09/28 21:39:33) Jules Lavisham: although we're going to keep trying.
(09/28 21:39:33) Calum Traveler: unfortunate, but not surprising,
(09/28 21:39:47) Calum Traveler: i have a feeling the library may not have anything to do with his friend, all things considered.
(09/28 21:39:51) Jules Lavisham: Mm. No stone unturned and all that business.
(09/28 21:39:52) Calum Traveler: just a gut hunch,
(09/28 21:39:56) ALotOf: well that sounds interesting Jules... back to the place where he was found... anything?
(09/28 21:40:14) Jules Lavisham: Nothing as of yet, ALotOf, although there is definitely more ground to cover there.
(09/28 21:40:14) ALotOf: ah okay sorry... but still interesting...
(09/28 21:40:41) Calum Traveler: as for the last thing regarding Ben...
(09/28 21:40:42) Calum Traveler sighs
(09/28 21:40:49) Calum Traveler: well, I guess there's no short way around it.
(09/28 21:40:57) Calum Traveler: Ben had a second DNA test done,
(09/28 21:41:12) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
(09/28 21:41:14) Calum Traveler: if you were there at the GoMePub a couple weeks ago when Tenny got the results in....
(09/28 21:41:17) NoMore: what's so interesting about 'not memorizing' counter 'memoryzing' ALotOf...?
(09/28 21:41:17) ALotOf: I'll explain you later, NoMore...
(09/28 21:41:19) Calum Traveler lets the Doctor explain...
(09/28 21:41:26) cameo: it still bugs me why he didn't want to see the spheres turn in anonay. wierd. he kept putting it off, or changed the subject. thoughts?
(09/28 21:41:55) Tiernan Quinlan: Well, th' long an' short of it is tha' Ben is 100% D'ni. He's not happy about this, though I've no idea why.
(09/28 21:42:13) Tiernan Quinlan: So approach th' subject delicately with him. Please.
(09/28 21:42:21) Calum Traveler: i cant say for certain, cameo, could be he was tired- I know I was after the long trip through that age.
(09/28 21:42:37) Calum Traveler: yeah, Ben seems... very tense about being D'ni, for some reason,
(09/28 21:42:45) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
(09/28 21:42:47) Calum Traveler: I suspect there's some burried trauma that's related to that.
(09/28 21:42:49) angelmyst: Ahnonay....annoying fits it well
(09/28 21:42:50) Jules Lavisham: It's a lot to process.
(09/28 21:43:02) Calum Traveler: we know he doesnt like the Journey doors,
(09/28 21:43:12) Calum Traveler: and that's an extreme reaction to say the least.
(09/28 21:43:26) cameo: he really seemed to enjoy the visit, until.......
(09/28 21:43:37) Calum Traveler: so yeah, sensitive subject, best to just keep treating Ben like any other explorer.
(09/28 21:43:54) Calum Traveler: i think he's concerned we'd treat him differently just because of heritage, or whatnot,
(09/28 21:43:59) Jules Lavisham: Absolutely. Regardless of who he is and where he came from,
(09/28 21:44:05) Jules Lavisham: he remains one of us.
(09/28 21:44:08) Calum Traveler: but honestly, just because ive got some scottish DNA in me doesnt mean im from scottland, for example.
(09/28 21:44:13) cameo: hope he's well. be nice to see him again
(09/28 21:44:23) Calum Traveler: hopefully he'll drop in at some point and check in with us.
(09/28 21:44:43) Tiernan Quinlan nods his head
