(06/26 14:01:39) Calum Traveler: shorah, robert
(06/26 14:01:40) Robert Murry: distracted with Riven.
(06/26 14:01:56) Calum Traveler: ah, i can see. did you lug that laptop down here all by yourself?
(06/26 14:02:11) Calum Traveler: well, ill let you be
(06/26 14:02:18) [BUDDIES] From Prad in Eder Tsogal: Hasta la Linux
(06/26 14:02:35) Robert Murry: Yep
(06/26 14:02:59) Robert Murry: I had to see what the fuss was all about.
(06/26 14:03:22) [BUDDIES] From Prad in Eder Tsogal: lol
(06/26 14:03:47) Calum Traveler: heh
(06/26 14:03:51) Calum Traveler: yeah, i need to finish it
(06/26 14:04:25) Robert Murry: Oops. I shouldn't have turned that...
(06/26 14:04:46) Calum Traveler: heh
(06/26 14:06:43) Lucario1829: *walks in wearing cheesy "i paused my game to be here" shirt* shorah
(06/26 14:06:52) Dreamer3: Shorah, Luc
(06/26 14:07:24) Calum Traveler: shorah, lucario
(06/26 14:07:34) Robert Murry: Shorah Riven, err, Lucario.
(06/26 14:07:43) Dreamer3: Shorah Claum, Robert : )
(06/26 14:08:18) Calum Traveler: dont mind robert, he's got Riven on the brain, and on that laptop lol.
(06/26 14:08:19) [BUDDIES] From Sleeper Jan in Sleeper Jan's Relto: waves
(06/26 14:08:41) Lucario1829: same here
(06/26 14:08:51) Lucario1829: i think we all can relate
(06/26 14:08:59) Calum Traveler: indeed
(06/26 14:09:25) Calum Traveler: im going to get back to it after this town hall's over and i get some food
(06/26 14:10:10) Lucario1829: my moms sitting behind me trying to help me figure out rivenese numerals as we speak
(06/26 14:10:23) Lucario1829: picking up my slack
(06/26 14:10:45) Calum Traveler: heh, always good to have help on that
(06/26 14:11:45) Calum Traveler: was going to make a statement about that today anyways lol
(06/26 14:11:47) Lucario1829: for sure
(06/26 14:14:36) [BUDDIES] To Buddies: reminder, town hall is in about 15 minutes
(06/26 14:19:50) Calum Traveler: do... do you ever just scroll tumblr, come across a post that clearly reads like a fandom discourse post for a fandom you dont go to... but the names in it are so rediculous you wonder if its parody?
(06/26 14:19:55) Calum Traveler: and then... it turns out to be Warrior Cats.
(06/26 14:20:41) Lucario1829: somehow wild discourse in the warrior cats fandom doesnt surprise me
(06/26 14:21:23) Lucario1829: a friend recently told me about the persona series leaker guy who had like a whole fake identity and pretended to not know english well
(06/26 14:22:39) Calum Traveler: the
(06/26 14:22:40) Calum Traveler: what
(06/26 14:23:21) Robert Murry: Shhh.... I'm trying to sneak up on a pair of Sunners.
(06/26 14:23:26) Calum Traveler: sneak well
(06/26 14:24:33) Calum Traveler: shorah, cpt.
(06/26 14:24:37) Cpt.Jericho: Hi all
(06/26 14:24:46) Lucario1829: shorah!
(06/26 14:24:47) [BUDDIES] To Buddies: town hall starts in about 6 min
(06/26 14:24:49) Calum Traveler: town hall starts in about 6 min
(06/26 14:25:11) Calum Traveler: this is probably going to be a short one
(06/26 14:25:15) Calum Traveler: dont have too much to say...
(06/26 14:25:18) Calum Traveler: but then i always say that
(06/26 14:25:22) Calum Traveler: and it goes for like an hour
(06/26 14:25:54) Cpt.Jericho: I still remember AGM that lasted for over two hours
(06/26 14:26:03) Robert Murry: Okay. I saved. I'll visit it later.
(06/26 14:26:15) Lucario1829: thats crazy, two hours?
(06/26 14:26:39) Calum Traveler: yeah, lots of things to talk about then heh
(06/26 14:26:45) Lucario1829: apparently
(06/26 14:26:56) Cpt.Jericho: Some speaker also loved to listen to themselves talking...
(06/26 14:27:24) Cpt.Jericho: But that was long ago anyway
(06/26 14:27:39) Cpt.Jericho: Hello Lindor
(06/26 14:27:47) Calum Traveler: a long time ago, but not a galaxy far far away
(06/26 14:27:57) Calum Traveler: shorah lindor
(06/26 14:28:05) LINDOR: Hello everyone, shorah
(06/26 14:28:27) Lucario1829: riven is doing pretty well on my computer, only one fatal error lol
(06/26 14:28:46) uru348: I got the demo to run on my low-spec PC
(06/26 14:29:56) Calum Traveler: alright, shorah all, the JUNE TOWN HALL is about to begin
(06/26 14:29:59) Lucario1829: i think it was hilarious when someone mentioned on discord that it was supposed to be on 16 gigs of ram minimum and i was like "oh. well it hasnt died yet"
(06/26 14:30:09) Lucario1829: anyways town hall
(06/26 14:30:45) Calum Traveler: there's not a lot to talk about this week, beyond two big ticket items
(06/26 14:31:14) Calum Traveler: just to get it out of the way first, RIVEN. it came out yesterday, yes there are things in it that are probably super important to talk about- but not today.
(06/26 14:31:42) Calum Traveler: personally i will be holding myself to a 'dont talk about it' rule until August, if only partially because I have a super packed July ahead of me
(06/26 14:32:12) Calum Traveler: the rest of that is to give folks time to experience it for themselves, and consider whats in it with some time to think
(06/26 14:32:24) Calum Traveler: personally speaking, my head hurts and i didnt even finish the game yet.
(06/26 14:32:42) uru348: Off cavern only talk?
(06/26 14:32:45) Calum Traveler: im going to need time to digest that stuff.
(06/26 14:33:02) Dreamer3: Should I do original or new Riven first?
(06/26 14:33:07) Calum Traveler: if yall wanna talk riven stuff, do it in private or on the fourms, uru348
(06/26 14:33:14) Calum Traveler: Dreamer, New Riven is most relevant, imho.
(06/26 14:33:34) Calum Traveler: discord, too, has places to talk about it
(06/26 14:33:36) Thumbs up from uru348
(06/26 14:33:47) Calum Traveler: CyanChat has a dedicated Riven channel, and Mysterium has a cyan spoilers channel
(06/26 14:34:03) Calum Traveler: my suggestion here is basically the same as what i say regarding things here in the cavern
(06/26 14:34:23) Calum Traveler: there are just some things that are best experienced with fresh eyes, and sometimes, people dont *want* to be told a solution to something.
(06/26 14:34:31) Calum Traveler: and with a New Game like Riven releasing JUST YESTRDAY?
(06/26 14:34:33) Calum Traveler: yeah.
(06/26 14:34:40) uru348: I'm sure this will bear repeating in the AGM next week
(06/26 14:34:51) Calum Traveler: indeed, i plan on repeating it there too
(06/26 14:35:12) angelmyst: Riven is the only one of the series I have not played, so when I do get it it will be totally new.
(06/26 14:35:27) Calum Traveler:
so far from what ive seen, it's fantastic(06/26 14:35:32) Calum Traveler: but that's all im going to say.
(06/26 14:35:39) Calum Traveler: next topic is local to the cavern here more.
(06/26 14:35:53) Calum Traveler: as you know I previously mentioned that an age called Mirtahm was undergoing restoration work,
(06/26 14:36:28) Calum Traveler: unfortunately some... incidents have begun happening that have the Age Project Leads, Ametist and TikiBear, announcing the age is being Suspended.
(06/26 14:36:36) Calum Traveler: for those who dont remember the DRC Phasse System
(06/26 14:36:49) Calum Traveler: Phases 1-4 are restoration related, with Phase 5 being released, and Suspended meaning all work is paused.
(06/26 14:37:00) Calum Traveler: Kalamee, notably, was a DRC age that was Suspended.
(06/26 14:37:16) Calum Traveler: the reason for this suspension of Mirtahm is as follows:
(06/26 14:37:37) Calum Traveler: claims of consistent hallucinations by the restoration team workers.
(06/26 14:37:56) Dreamer3: feature, not a bug
(06/26 14:38:02) Calum Traveler: a shadowy, humanoid figure in the hallways have been seen, and no, it's not a Bahro. before anyone asks
(06/26 14:38:11) Calum Traveler: I know what Bahro look like. I've seen the shadow for myself.
(06/26 14:38:17) Calum Traveler: it's humanoid like you or I.
(06/26 14:38:26) Cpt.Jericho: I wasn't me, I promise
(06/26 14:38:30) Cpt.Jericho: *It
(06/26 14:38:31) Calum Traveler: it wouldnt be you
(06/26 14:38:48) Calum Traveler: in several cases the age was confirmed empty save but a single person.
(06/26 14:39:14) Calum Traveler: my personal assumption is that this shadowy figure is caused by something like a gas leak in the air, or perhaps a hallucinagenic mold spore?
(06/26 14:39:31) Calum Traveler: regardless, Mirtahm has been pulled from restoration work while a source for these hallucinations is looked for.
(06/26 14:39:52) Robert Murry: That might explain the flying monkeys I saw...
(06/26 14:39:55) Calum Traveler: the last thing we want is people getting startled by something that isnt there and falling and hurting themselves.
(06/26 14:40:25) angelmyst: so a hallucination that is seen by multiple people???
(06/26 14:40:36) Calum Traveler: descriptions are vaguely slightly different
(06/26 14:40:38) angelmyst: or an aspiration seen by just one person?
(06/26 14:40:50) Calum Traveler: but it's all generally been the same description of a shadowy figure just out of sight.
(06/26 14:40:51) Cpt.Jericho: I'd be more worried about people going there trying to get stoned.
(06/26 14:40:55) Calum Traveler: what i was was...
(06/26 14:41:17) Calum Traveler: well, i was riding an elevator and i saw a shadow of a man in a hallway across from me. faded out of sight before i really knew what i was seeing
(06/26 14:41:21) Calum Traveler: i thought it was stress at the time
(06/26 14:41:32) Calum Traveler: but after multiple reports began surfacing of people seeing similar?
(06/26 14:41:53) angelmyst: Effects of air pressure?
(06/26 14:41:56) Calum Traveler: it's a phenomenon we've seen on the surface, old houses with weird atmospheres,
(06/26 14:42:02) Calum Traveler: people see humanoid shadows,
(06/26 14:42:10) Calum Traveler: i hesitate to call the Age haunted, personally.
(06/26 14:42:36) Calum Traveler: but that's not to say that, if the place *is* haunted, it's history doesnt support it.
(06/26 14:42:37) Cpt.Jericho votes to call the phenomenom a "Scaramouche".
(06/26 14:42:41) angelmyst: stranger things have happened
(06/26 14:42:49) LINDOR: Maybe the "ghosts" are friendly?
(06/26 14:42:49) Buddy: Sorry for arriving late Calum, where did this shadow figure appear?
(06/26 14:42:58) Calum Traveler: Mirtahm, as far as we know, suffered atleast one major cataclysm in the form of a torrential rainfall that flooded most of the age.
(06/26 14:43:06) Calum Traveler: Mirtahm, Buddy, an age that has been Suspended.
(06/26 14:43:37) Calum Traveler: I'm uncertain if the age will ever be released or not, if a source for the hallucinations can't be pinned down.
(06/26 14:43:47) angelmyst: "Ghosts present, link at your own risk"
(06/26 14:43:54) Calum Traveler: for now, the age project leads, Ametist and TikiBear, have pulled the project.
(06/26 14:44:04) Calum Traveler: which is unfortunate, i really like the place. it's very pretty.
(06/26 14:44:18) Calum Traveler: shorah, LividLiquid
(06/26 14:44:28) LividLiquid: Shorah.
(06/26 14:44:35) Buddy: I think that it would be a BIG draw to see this age.
(06/26 14:44:41) Dreamer3: Are there any linking books to it around that we should avoid touching?
(06/26 14:44:52) Calum Traveler: no, Dreamer3, we've secured the books.
(06/26 14:44:57) Lucario1829: my power flickered off
(06/26 14:45:14) Calum Traveler: Mirtahm is presently no access except to Ametist and TikiBear.
(06/26 14:45:41) Calum Traveler: while some may love a good haunting, Buddy, if the cause of the hallucinations is something like Carbon Monoxide poisoning, that would be bad.
(06/26 14:45:52) angelmyst: modern day Ghostbusters they be.
(06/26 14:46:12) Calum Traveler: i want to stress, we have no proof the age is Haunted.
(06/26 14:46:32) angelmyst: but also no proof that it is NOT haunted,,,lol
(06/26 14:46:34) Calum Traveler: it's incredibly likely that the restoration work simply disturbed something that, when inhaled, causes hallucinations.
(06/26 14:46:34) Buddy: More investigation is needed
(06/26 14:46:35) Dreamer3: Love the bahro screech timing : )
(06/26 14:47:03) Calum Traveler: indeed, and Ametist and TikiBear are doing that investigation.
(06/26 14:47:15) Calum Traveler: I'll pass along any updates they see fit to share,
(06/26 14:47:18) Robert Murry: With Maintainer Suits.
(06/26 14:47:25) Calum Traveler: certainly.
(06/26 14:47:34) Calum Traveler: right then, to recap for the few who have linked in,
(06/26 14:47:55) Calum Traveler: Riven Spoilers- game released yesterday folks, try to keep spoiler talk to private, and only with folks who are okay with being spoiled about it.
(06/26 14:48:24) Calum Traveler: and if you do talk publicly in discord about spoilers, please disclose you're talking about Riven, and enclose your text brackets with a double bar. "||"
(06/26 14:48:40) Calum Traveler: nobody wants to have a fun time ruined.
(06/26 14:48:56) Calum Traveler: Age News: Mirtahm is Suspended pending investigations of Hallucinations. Age is probably not haunted.
(06/26 14:49:12) Calum Traveler: oh, right, i forgot to mention,
(06/26 14:49:17) Buddy: I hope it is!
(06/26 14:49:24) Calum Traveler: i do not believe we'll be getting the Mysterium Shirt shipment in for this year,
(06/26 14:49:44) <sniffle> uru348 is sad
(06/26 14:49:47) Dreamer3 wipes away small tear
(06/26 14:49:49) Calum Traveler: something seems to have delayed the ordering and i don't think we'll have the new shirts in time for Mysterium next month.
(06/26 14:50:10) Calum Traveler: it's unfortunate, but, well...
(06/26 14:50:12) Calum Traveler: it happens.
(06/26 14:50:29) Calum Traveler: sometimes people drop the ball, and sometimes IRL gets in your way and keeps you from doing things on time...
(06/26 14:50:45) Calum Traveler: and sometimes you get several months in a row that leave you in a depressive funk for half the year.
(06/26 14:50:54) Calum Traveler coughs politely when referring to themself.
(06/26 14:51:13) angelmyst: Sounds familiar
(06/26 14:51:26) Calum Traveler: we'll be sure to get the shirts for this year in time for next year, though.
(06/26 14:51:43) Buddy: lol
(06/26 14:51:48) Calum Traveler: im absolutely sure of that
(06/26 14:51:55) angelmyst is bummed that I cant make it to Mysterium
(06/26 14:52:17) Calum Traveler: oh, one final thing
(06/26 14:52:39) Calum Traveler: Patrick, myself, and a few others are planning to have a panel at Mysterium
(06/26 14:52:39) Dreamer3: me likewise bummed.
(06/26 14:52:46) Calum Traveler: should be streamed
(06/26 14:52:47) Dreamer3 likewise bummed
(06/26 14:53:00) Calum Traveler: we'll do some talk about restoration work, and maybe show some videos of areas we're working on.
(06/26 14:53:12) Calum Traveler: i have no updates regarding Descent.
(06/26 14:53:13) Lucario1829: oh? neat
(06/26 14:53:22) Buddy: Any updates on new additions to Naybree?
(06/26 14:53:40) Dreamer3: Cool! Also post clips on youtube. (I can't stream at Oregon Country Fair)
(06/26 14:53:53) Calum Traveler: my stick shipment for the marshmallow rosters got lost in the mail.
(06/26 14:53:53) Dreamer3: That was supposed to be a ?
(06/26 14:54:14) Calum Traveler: im still working on building a stage for the meteor shower, but Kelsei seems to be right and I was jumping the gun with an early announcement.
(06/26 14:54:25) Calum Traveler: doesn't seem like the meteors are coming anytime soon,
(06/26 14:54:40) Dreamer3: Meteors are fickle
(06/26 14:54:44) Lucario1829: im sure theyll be worth the wait
(06/26 14:54:47) Calum Traveler: aye,
(06/26 14:55:02) Calum Traveler: um, Reischu apartment work has stalled briefly due to pollen season striking
(06/26 14:55:17) Calum Traveler: seems to be more mild this year but it's still raining yellow gunk from the trees.
(06/26 14:55:18) Stouza: As long as staring at them doesn't dissolve your body the next day...
(06/26 14:55:20) Calum Traveler: kinda like snow.
(06/26 14:55:24) Calum Traveler: but makes you sneeze
(06/26 14:56:14) Calum Traveler: oh, also, i believe there'll be an official announcement later on, but I'm told there might be a Marker Mission in cavern from some of the Mysterium Staff this year?
(06/26 14:56:23) Calum Traveler: i think there'll be an announcement if that's going to happen
(06/26 14:56:31) Calum Traveler: maybe i'll have info on that by the AGM
(06/26 14:56:47) Calum Traveler: uhhhh... i think that's it from me. Robert? got anything?
(06/26 14:57:10) Robert Murry: Hoping to have fun at Mysterium.
(06/26 14:57:14) Calum Traveler:
(06/26 14:57:21) Calum Traveler: yeah, hopefully.
(06/26 14:57:30) Calum Traveler: alright, any last questions from the audience?
(06/26 14:57:35) Lucario1829: i echo that sentiment
(06/26 14:58:01) Dreamer3: Are we confident that the "ghost" can't access other ages?
(06/26 14:58:13) Calum Traveler: nobody has seen the hallucination outside of Mirtahm
(06/26 14:58:20) Cpt.Jericho: Yet.
(06/26 14:58:22) Calum Traveler: we're fairly certain that whatevers causing it is contained to the age's hallways.
(06/26 14:58:32) Calum Traveler: it's only been seen inside, too
(06/26 14:58:39) Calum Traveler: nobodys seen it outdoors,
(06/26 14:58:57) Calum Traveler: which, yknow, tracks for airborne hallucination inducers, on the surface,
(06/26 14:59:11) Calum Traveler: people dont usually see haunting ghost shadows outside of the haunted houses, yknow?
(06/26 14:59:43) angelmyst: except in graveyards
(06/26 14:59:54) Calum Traveler: well, yeah, but that's another atmosphere issue again
(06/26 15:00:36) Calum Traveler: alright, ive got nothing else
(06/26 15:00:44) Calum Traveler: im feeling hungry, and itching to get back into Riven
(06/26 15:00:51) Calum Traveler: so im going to call it here,
(06/26 15:00:59) Calum Traveler: i'll probably not see you guys next month
(06/26 15:00:59) Cpt.Jericho: So, the Scaramouche only appeared inside of a building in Mirtahm?
(06/26 15:01:00) Robert Murry: I've got Sunners to get back to...
(06/26 15:01:05) Lucario1829: i suppose ill get back to riven, being sure to save often in case of more power issues lol
(06/26 15:01:06) Dreamer3: Thanks Calum and Robert!
(06/26 15:01:13) Calum Traveler: ive got a busy month on the surface
(06/26 15:01:16) Dreamer3 kneels down...
(06/26 15:01:19) Calum Traveler: so if there's a townhall next month i wont be running it
(06/26 15:01:21) Buddy: Thank you guys!
(06/26 15:01:25) uru348 thanks you very much!
(06/26 15:01:28) Dreamer3 claps his hands
(06/26 15:01:28) LINDOR claps his hands
(06/26 15:01:28) Cpt.Jericho: Thanks for the heads up.
(06/26 15:01:31) Lucario1829 claps his hands
(06/26 15:01:31) Robert Murry waves hello
(06/26 15:01:36) Calum Traveler: see you all in august, if that's the case!
(06/26 15:01:36) angelmyst: was interesting,,thank you
(06/26 15:01:37) Calum Traveler waves goodbye
(06/26 15:01:42) Calum Traveler: take care, all!
(06/26 15:01:45) LividLiquid cheers
(06/26 15:01:46) Lucario1829 waves goodbye
(06/26 15:02:11) Calum Traveler exhales slightly, and links out
(06/26 15:02:25) ...Chat.log stopped.
