First off, we're in a new voting cycle. Yes we've been drilling this into your head for the past year, but endurance does pay off. We're currently 61 with a mere 7 votes and we should be back in the 20s since only 20+ votes would put us there currently, so, go vote, at least once, cause no one is at the moment.

Then we will be holding a Town Hall Meeting this Saturday at 7pm Eastern Standard Time, 19:00 Waterdeep Standard Time (type TIME or the clock on the website). I will be holding several of these as we enter the fall/winter season at different times and days of the week, to give everyone at least 1 chance to hit them up. Main subject is what direction should this mud be heading, because for the moment we've been going in circles and idle with any progress, both in the mortal and immortal ways.
The mud did get a one/two punch over the spring, Bane was dragged away due to his job, and Dugmaren who had been heading up the builders port went MIA on us, tripping anything area wise we had in the works. Its time to dust ourselves off and get a game plan written out. This includes as always changes/suggestions/ideas from the players, especially the newer ones we have gotten lately. You guys came from other games, you might be able to suggest things, such as...
A way to 'fix' the gang-bang aspect that has become PK to many people's dislikings, changes could be made to certain skills, say 'Circle'. The basic idea is the damage circle deals with becomes 'double' when you get gang banged (1 on 1 which becomes 2 on 1) or even triple damage (3 on 1). Was an interesting idea. I will be collecting ideas at this meeting, and we will have a 'Construction' page on the website that will outline our future goals and changes to the game.
I'd also like to talk about roleplaying, things we can do to advance and enhance it, as I do see the Legion - Magitek conflict and the reactivation of the clans had create some roleplaying and a whole lot of writing.
So...Town Hall Meeting, 7pm Eastern Standard, 19:00 Waterdeep Standard, located Market Square Westbridge so we can have the most spam ever. If you are unable to attend and want a subject brought up, feel free to post me a note (as said we'll have more or these). Also keep in mind these meetings usually last several hours, so you can always show up late too.
