1st June
So a few days in and as promised a weekly update. My plan for these is to let people know what I'm thinking, how stuff is being passed, and generally useful info for people applying for points apps. It is also a chance to keep an eye on Fromant, and update people on "him" (these make be jokes, bad ones I agree). Kicking off there have been some issues with points reaching me (carlo typing the wrong email address for example). Fortunately I have defeated this already. When I print a points app I'll reply to the email saying "printed" or similar. I print stuff off most evenings (weekends I'm normally reffing) so if you haven't heard back in 3ish days check. Once printed I fail them (obviously) and will give to Duncan on a (normally) Tuesday evening. He will then scan when he has a chance, email out pdf replies, and envelope up. This hopefully gives you an idea of the turnaround rate. So what is being passed/failed? Retros - Everyone knows I hate them, but this doesn't stop me passing them as they are (alas) part of the system now. However I will not pass "I vanish before taking anything" as a blanket ability. Depending on the retro you will take something from the first blow/effect, probably with some sort of reduction. No effects - these need a justification and have a cost beyond points (deny power - class, foretold - level of casting, pure force is a major force miracle and 8 spirits). Ref statting - I will not pass things because refs stat badly, sorry. Just raise the statting issue. Multi-races - per level abilities get expensive. I have passed two races for close too/over 2k because of per level abilities. I spoke to someone today and then said but it's because stuff is "multi-race only". I have no issue with you keeping a multi-race cheap and doing post 6th/8th abilities, or a class based on it. EG Primal Soul Wolf, go 7/8 as were wolf, then do a class based on rages because you are a were wolf. I think that's everything for this week, except: Fromant Watch: status green, no new system dangers. "Him" watch: Callum viciously bullied again, but Grull pool removed, happy Lee Sonof -------------------- Please send points apps to: pointsapp@labyrinthe.co.uk

Hello,
So a nice weekend, despite traitors ( )being off playing other systems we had a good number of people around both days, which is good. More questions on books and I still can't offer a date, but thank you to all the people offering assistance to try and speed things up it is very appreciated and we will be taking you up on it Almanac failed to make April (unreasonably Tim had to work!) but should be out soon. Deadlines for the July one are: Articles/comments/you want something in/ask the gsm questions: 15th june ish. Please use the lee@labyrinthe.co.uk email address. Guild boards: I will be checking them the last weekend of June. Guild specials/halls/etc. These will be anything that has happened in April-June. Hopefully we will have it out by mid-July. An advanced warnings. Myths - when myths season hits there will be a 2-3 week window of no points apps. I'll post exact dates closer to the time, but it will be happening sorry. I also want to remind people that when you get over 9k and before you reach 10k you need to come and see me so I can go through your cards to check points apps and get you signed upto date. This is very relevant for the 9 day so please sort out getting it done. I'd like to remind people a tatty leather coat is not master crafted armour (even 1+2) all over. And finally a question. If I catch people cheating what are peoples views on it? Should I just tell the ref, or should I take action? I honestly want to know what people think. I am not intending to ever do something mid-dungeon and cause chaos but I am interested and have (well will but by the time you're this far it's there) interested what people think. Answers and a decision from me next week. Lee -------------------- Please send points apps to: pointsapp@labyrinthe.co.uk
