EM Lyraa	hi Carrick
Misk	Hello!
Kyronix	Hello
Carrick McGee	Hail
Bleak	Hello
Carrick McGee	Wether or not you are aware
Carrick McGee	The White Council holds the record
Carrick McGee	for most rounds on the Void pool
Carrick McGee	of any other shard
EM Troubadour	*applauds*
Carrick McGee	My request is that a sign be mounted
Carrick McGee	For the shard htat holds that record
Carrick McGee	Siege would hold that sign
Carrick McGee	or plaque
Carrick McGee	until the record is beaten
Carrick McGee	which at that time
Carrick McGee	the plaque would be transferred to that shard
Carrick McGee	Logical?
EM Lyraa	right now the Japanese shards do something like that
EM Lyraa	but its more than a sign I made a void banner
Carrick McGee	We have beaten the Japanese shard
Kyronix	Ooooo
EM Lyraa	that is passed
Carrick McGee	sounds wonderful!
Carrick McGee	I beleive it should be passed to Siege then
EM Lyraa	no one had ever challenged them
Carrick McGee	Our EM was present
Carrick McGee	when we surpassed that shard
EM Lyraa	your EM should speak to the EM's on those shards then
Carrick McGee	Well I believe we did
EM Lyraa	and see what we can work out
Carrick McGee	and he spoke to the other EM
Carrick McGee	when it happened
EM Troubadour	I did pass the challenge back to the Japanese EM's.
EM Lyraa	I would love to see more xshard competition
Carrick McGee	Well I am requesting that banner
Carrick McGee	be passed to Siege
EM Troubadour	but we can not x-shard the banner to Siege. *sighs*
Carrick McGee	Since we surpassed their record
EM Lyraa	and I would be happy to do something like you are requesting
EM Lyraa	I would even put the winners on UO.COM
Carrick McGee	Possibly remove their banner
Carrick McGee	and post it on our shard?
Carrick McGee	Siege is the undisputable champions of the void pool
Carrick McGee	and we would like recognition for it
EM Lyraa	ok
Carrick McGee	Thank You!!
EM Troubadour	*smiles*
EM Lyraa	I understand I will talk to the EM's involved
Carrick McGee	Fantastic!
Carrick McGee	Thank You!
EM Lyraa	Most welcome
EM Troubadour	Next
Frost	Welcome to Siege and thanks for doing this.
Frost	I'm sure all the "big" questions have been asked, so I have 2 smaller ones.
EM Lyraa	Hi Frost
Frost	I'll try to be brief with my 2 questions:
Frost	1- Would you please have a look at the code for raising Battle Chickens.
Frost	It seems that some people have chickens that won't lay, others whose eggs won't "age",
Frost	and still others whose eggs "aged" very quickly (like the house decay issue).
Frost	Kelmo and others (myself included) are raising them for our "League"
Frost	but these issues are hampering the community involvement.
EM Lyraa	are you having issues with plants also?
Frost	Nay
Frost	not me
EM Lyraa	ok just making sure
Frost	but i use beds
Frost	32 of them
Bleak	We will take a look
Frost	2nd question?
Frost	2- Would you please consider the "costs" (time, effort,gold) of doing sea battles.
Frost	This would include the "costs" of both repairs and aquiring items necessary, like
Frost	tons of Saltpeter, etc. Reducing these "costs" would go a long way toward
Frost	making the High Seas more "inhabited", so to speak...
EM Lyraa	we are going to revist all that
Frost	Very wello
Frost	well
Frost	Thank you for listening..
EM Lyraa	we want to redo how the cannons work etc

Sara Dale	lands

Visitor	hello all
Kyronix	Greetings!
EM Lyraa	hi Visitor
Visitor	I have a question about the governor system
Kyronix	Sure
Visitor	i was wodering if there can be a stone or a book placed in LB castle of all the past governors
Visitor	also if a governor gets elected 3 or more terms a special robe he she can wear during that term
EM Lyraa	I think that should be done at the governor house
EM Lyraa	not in the castle
EM Lyraa	but thats not a bad idea
Visitor	that would be a goo idea
Visitor	the houses we use
Visitor	what about 3 terms and a special stick or a robe only used by the governor?
EM Lyraa	I really don't want to start that
Visitor	understood
EM Lyraa	I would rather they do it for the game not for the items

Sprago	hi messana
Sprago	just got one question
EM Lyraa	hi Sprago
Sprago	to utilize the battle arenas better can we get a static gate from luna to each of the arena's since not all can gate here it would make using them easier
EM Lyraa	I will consider putting them outside the walls
EM Lyraa	near the bagball court area
Sprago	that would be great thank you for listening
EM Lyraa	only because Luna is so busy
EM Lyraa	with event gates etc
EM Lyraa	I would like to seperate them
Galadriel	Hail All!
EM Lyraa	hi Galadriel
Galadriel	Welcome to Siege
EM Lyraa	thank you
Galadriel	Here is an ideal maybe can use
Galadriel	For boat battles
EM Lyraa	we like ideas
Galadriel	an shootable item
Galadriel	name siege hook
Galadriel	that would aloud you to enter
Galadriel	the other boat
Galadriel	for pvp battle
Kyronix	Have you played AC 4?
Galadriel	and such
Galadriel	No
Galadriel	Never heard of it
Galadriel	lol
Kyronix	They do something similar
Galadriel	ahh
Kyronix	You launch a hook to enemy boats and then steal it
Galadriel	so could board fight, loot
Galadriel	etc
Kyronix	If you cause enough damage you can board them now
Galadriel	True
Galadriel	but that could give differant way
Galadriel	to attack
Galadriel	and would have to denfend
Galadriel	meanly for battle
Galadriel	you get idea
Galadriel	=)
Kyronix	Thanks for the suggestion!
Kyronix	:D
Galadriel	Thank you for your time
Galadriel	=)
