It makes me laugh the entire Council is saying "Only clear out the Palace if the government is in control of it", which was always part of the plan. People are just so very paranoid.

I just didn't want you to move your HQ to the palace.

Heladuit Court & Mercantile Guild - don't forget to put our deals in your EoT.

So many things to do. So few stats to do them.

if your referring to the space by the traitors bridge then it was done yesterday when i sent in my EOT.

i know what you mean by the lack of stats. despite me having the highest wealth, its not nearly enough to do what i have planned.

It was actually wall space by Traitor's Bridge.

You might have more, if you did less charitable donations and more buisness investments. Well, I actually have a suggestion on how you can improve your cash flow, but it can wait, until the next turn.

And I've put 1 WEL as interest payment on that loan in my EoT by the way.

My power has been going in and out the past couple days. I'm going to work to get in my EoT, but the IC thread may be as late as tomorrow night.

No worries. I spent the day moving into a new apartment, so I haven't started resolving the EoTs yet anyway.

On a related note, NM020110 has dropped due to time constraints. The Librarian of the Elements is now an NPC.

Oh, hey you! I forgot to tell people you were going to be away for a few weeks.

Here are links to the last two end of turn reports. Also, something that wasn't mentioned in those is the fact that a new Provisional City Council was formed at a meeting run by the EBSA.

Relevant to you is the fact that the Heladuit Court straight-up invaded Dappled Court while you were trying to expand your business into it.

Also relevant: I've spent the weekend moving into a new apartment in preparation for starting an internship tomorrow, so I haven't touched EoTs yet. If you get caught up fast, you could probably submit an EoT--if not, I'll use the general one you sent me back when you told me you were going away for a while.


EDIT: Speaking of the Council, the voting in the thread was tied at 2-2, with one abstain, but by their EoT the EBSA is going with the
Spoiler
so I'm going to count that as their vote.

I'm a little less than halfway through them. Things are proceeding more slowly than I had thought they would; my job is giving me a lot less free time than I had expected.

In the perfect storm of EoT delaying bull****, my computer has died. I have no idea what's wrong with it other than that it won't stay powered on for more than twenty seconds. I was hoping to tell you all that I'd have them done tomorrow: instead, the future is bleak and uncertain.

So apparently the guy I had looking at my computer is a wizard or something. He took it apart, told me that the motherboard was shot, put it back together and it started working. Neither I nor him have any idea why, but I'm willing to live with the mystery.

I should be able to get EoTs back to people either tomorrow or Monday, barring further computer issues (which are entirely possible, given that this miracle fix seems too good to be true). Thank you all for your patience.

Nope. $35 diagnostic fee. He didn't even realize he'd fixed it until I tried it back at my apartment and called him to say it was working now.

You actually already have some of those--they joined you with the rest of the Foundry in Little Veras.

All right, everyone should have gotten an EoT back now. Except razovor, because his PM box is full. To razovor: let me know when you've emptied it.

Deadline for next EoTs is Saturday, August 25. Unless negotiations are going for a long time and need to be extended, of course.

So many plots and amazingly enough, I appear to have enough stats for all of them.

I think I've missed 2-3 messages, but I'll simply post them later.

Edit: I knew that conflict would come up in the talks. This won't end well .

Well, you've got Wardens to help you out with that.

And I'm surprised you fought it would be possible to clear out bandits in Shattered Lands with your current power.

i expected a long fight consisting of many turns, but i figured i could eventually win since if need be i could always hire new troops to go out and fight and win simply through attrition. that and i had expected some hired mercs to be out there supporting me.

also, on a related note:zemalac, you never had the city of bells respond to me in my EOT.
