LORD COUNCIL MINUTES – AUGUST 27, 2006
Attendance
Present: Auryn, Enda, Kariya, Locqui, Niniane, Sabotage, Waite, and Xaolin
Absent: Chiles, Chocolate, Ponomariov, and Zyzzx
Old Issues
- Regeneration code: resolved
Seems like there has not been any issues regarding the regeneration code after Pliny’s change. No Lords have been bringing up regeneration code to attention. Races, we know, are affected by the regeneration code, however, we discussed whether or not worship affected the regeneration code. Chairman Waite to email to Pliny and ask about worship affect towards the regeneration code.
Update: Pliny and Chocolate did some testing, and worship does indeed affect regeneration at lord.
- Lord MudSchool: remains open
Vivaea is working hard on the description and editing the area. Auryn is currently working on the layout, making it more linear. Expansion of the mud school is expected.
- Final Fury: resolved
Dev’s idea on duration and exhaust for Final Fury seems reasonable to the Council. Idea was: Pondering putting an affect on it. Once activated, it would only last for 5 ticks (even if you didn't qualify for it during all 5 ticks) and then exhaust. Lord Council had several different ideas, but Dev’s idea was one we wanted to go along with.
- Lord Council Charter: remains open
- Idea/motivator position has not yet been implemented.
Unofficial position has been assigned to Enda. Position includes bringing up variety of issues on the lord mailer and garnering responses from the Lord community.
- Niniane is still working on the revision towards the Charter.
Difficulties include the fact that a vote to the changes has to be unanimous. Sections and outline are to be distributed among the council to start off with the changes.
- Once-Sundered ring and UD Girth: resolved
LC feels this issue is trivial. It is to remain as is, it is the coder’s decision on how things are developed in an area s/he creates. With that issue being discussed, we brought up race and class specific consumable items, where items are fit only for certain races and classes (gear size and restriction). Discussion for consumable items open for discussion, perhaps?
- Etiquette: resolved
LC feels that Lord Community should self-govern. If issues arise, it is recommended that specific etiquette issue are deal with as it arises, instead of making policies and/or to prevent such issue. Any related issues can be brought up to the LC, and LC can work out on what went wrong and give advice as it happens. Issue was brought up on Lord mailer. Lord community choose to be silent, therefore this issue is considered, in short, resolved.
- Putting TRL/SPR/GRF back to creatable: resolved
LC feels these races should remain as is currently.
- Lords to multiplay from Thorngate: resolved
LC agreed no to that issue. No multiplay for Lords on thorngate while another character is running hero.
- Legend tier and pvp issue: resolved
LC feels that it is not within LC to debate or propose anything regarding Legend tier.
New Issues
- Planar Anchor: resolved
LC agreed that it is reasonable with the current fix of 5 casters setting anchor. If problems arise, LC has several other options to propose for future.
- Removal of Lloydable room 2e of Thorngate: resolved
Planar anchor ability in that certain room has since been removed, since the implementation of planar anchor change.
- Put task number 3141 as priority: resolved
Task number 3141 dealt with the ritual lag, specifically threnody and salvation, the ability to break the lag. LC feels that it is not a priority, however, wants a coder to see if s/he can check into that specific task.
- SPR getting additional 5% mana reduction: resolved
LC agreed that was a good fix for SPR, and considers the matter closed.
