[13:08] Nathan Adored: So, worse symptoms than seeing those…. blue boxes pop up every now and then? ㋡
[13:08] Noah Lukas (noahalexander.ohare) sneaks in and hides off to the side listening
[13:08] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Isn’t that RIGHT, doctor?
[13:09] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington) looks at the doctor and nods

[13:11] Gabrielle Riel strains to see what is on Tepic’s arm
[13:11] Mosseveno Tenk puts a finger under Tepic’s armband
[13:11] Cessadia Thetan claps for the Clockwinder

[13:12] zaida Gearbox: babbage urchin militia mr. tenk
[13:12] Gabrielle Riel instantly realizes what BUM stands for and grins.
[13:12] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): You see, the citizens hallucinated that they were being oppressed by a dictatorship, and there was this dreadfully silly curfew
[13:12] Noah Lukas (noahalexander.ohare) came in here hoping there is food to be served as he is hungry.
[13:12] Mosseveno Tenk ‘s head snaps around to zaida
[13:12] Pino Ducard (pinoautoreiv): latinus el suckus myun cockus

[13:13] Arnold (gager): First I heard about it,and I work at the hospital.
[13:13] Jimmy Branagh: Yes. Poor Snow …
[13:13] Arnold (gager) shrugs.
[13:13] Mosseveno Tenk pulls a brightly colored tablecloth out of his back pocket
[13:13] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): That’s beacuse you are also afflicted, Arnold.
[13:13] Mosseveno Tenk: And you, Mr. Mornington

[13:14] Osric Worbridge: I know where there is tar. Does anyone have any feathers?
[13:14] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby) glares
[13:14] Arnold (gager): If you say so.
[13:14] Mosseveno Tenk holds up the flag of Morningtown
[13:14] zaida Gearbox grins at the flag
[13:14] Gabrielle Riel: 0_0
[13:15] Mosseveno Tenk: Mr. Underby, di dyou and Mr. Mornigntont have some sort of… disagreement?
[13:15] Leon (leon1.starsider) blinks and twitches his tail
[13:15] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby) turns to Mornington
[13:15] Mosseveno Tenk: Would someone
[13:15] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): a flag?
[13:15] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): ohhhhhh, yes…. that
[13:15] Nathan Adored fights valiantly to keep a straight face.
[13:15] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Did I mention those hallucinations? I rather think I did….
[13:15] Pino Ducard (pinoautoreiv): Victor i love you like a daddy

[13:16] Dr. Thornley (jackthornley): We believe a marsh gas from the Fells swept into the city, causing widespread hallucinations.
[13:16] Osric Worbridge: That would be his independant state flag.
[13:16] Tepic Harlequin: an everyone thoyght it were Mr Arnold, but it wern’t….

[13:18] Cessadia Thetan grabs the Dr.’s coattail…
[13:18] Avariel Falcon nods agreeing with Jimmy
[13:18] Leon (leon1.starsider) thinks”ey tepic didn’t you get something from underby a paper bout us beign bums or something something to show offically
[13:18] Gabrielle Riel: Oh indeed?
[13:18] Jimmy Branagh: ((Chat lag has arrived))

[13:18] Dee Wells (promiscute): What isn’t convincing is this story
[13:18] Cessadia Thetan misses
[13:18] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach (klauswulfenbach.outlander) prepares a neck brace for the Clockwinder
[13:19] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): yes… Marsh Gas caused the WHOLE thing! swept in from Fells after the accident on the fells bridge collapsed the rail link…

[13:19] zaida Gearbox scowls at victor
[13:19] Garnet Psaltery: This is balderdash and nincompoopery
[13:19] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Yes, exactly. I’m sure you are all very upet, and I am filled with sympathy.
[13:19] Dee Wells (promiscute): Why don’t we consult another doctor?
[13:19] Mosseveno Tenk: Yes, the sewers udner cuffs had become extensive enough to become unstable
[13:19] Arnold (gager): Oh right
[13:19] Arnold (gager): That newspaper had pictures
[13:19] Gabrielle Riel watches the doctor fight the lag as he leaves
[13:19] Mosseveno Tenk: A newspaper?
[13:19] Nathan Adored checks his pockets, trying to remember if he’d brought one of the recent fishwraps, doesn’t find one. Looks around the room to see if anyone else brought the paper.
[13:19] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): The pressman was similarly afflicted, of course
[13:19] Mosseveno Tenk: Where can I get this newspaper, Arnold?
[13:19] Tepic Harlequin: we didn’t have no paper it were a ge.tle.ma.’s agr..me..nt… we shook on it!
[13:19] Arnold (gager) thinks
[13:19] Mosseveno Tenk: The press was hallucinating?

[13:20] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): yes the newspaper, very good arnold

[13:20] Arnold (gager): New Babbage Free Press.
[13:20] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): so of course when Mr Underby dutifully started work on fixing the collapsed bridge, the workers dug underground and released the gas which swept over the city *nods repeatedly*
[13:20] Dee Wells (promiscute): Well, one if us is
[13:20] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Are none of you getting this?
[13:20] Leon (leon1.starsider) blinks and twitches his tail as it fluffs out a bit as “mentaly ill”
[13:20] Tepic Harlequin: errrr….. are we gettin paid?
[13:20] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Listen to Mornington, for once in his life he is talking sense.
[13:21] Cessadia Thetan: Rubbish!
[13:21] Dee Wells (promiscute): We’ve gotten quite enough
[13:21] Arnold (gager): There should be copies…somewhere.
[13:21] Jimmy Branagh whispers: Oy’m gettin a fit o’ laughter
[13:21] Mosseveno Tenk: I intend to get to the bottom of whatever has ben going on
[13:21] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): and the curfew has a heavy impact on the economy
[13:21] Bookworm Hienrichs: And how is it, Mr. Underby, that you and Mr. Mornington aren’t?
[13:21] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): and the strikes which have almost bankrupted the city was just a cause of the marsh gas….
[13:21] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington) glares at Underby
[13:21] Jamie Marie Blanchard (celestia.blanchard) nods in agreement
[13:21] Mosseveno Tenk raises an eyebrow at Underby agreeing with Mornington
[13:21] Bookworm Hienrichs: ((kicks chat lag))
[13:21] Mosseveno Tenk: Right now we have other business to attend to
[13:21] Avariel Falcon: My cognitive systems are functioning within normal parameters.
[13:21] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): There was NO CURFEW.
[13:21] Mosseveno Tenk: However

[13:21] Tepic Harlequin: yep, it meant we got paid ther patrol, if we is gettin paid…..
[13:22] Mosseveno Tenk: Perhaps, if you feel the need to take the city appart into your own little fiefdoms, yuo should take it out on the ice
[13:22] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): I am not paying for hallucinations, son.
[13:22] Bookworm Hienrichs: .

[13:23] zaida Gearbox pulls out her slingshot and aims it at mr. underby

[13:23] Tepic Harlequin: fraid we ain’t gettin no more pay, fellas, it’s the end fer the Babbage Urchin Militia!
[13:23] Osric Worbridge: Occam’s razor Underby. It is more likely that you and Mornington are affected my said gas and are paranoid. Perhaps a stay in Arnold’s hospital is what you need.
[13:23] Mosseveno Tenk: It’s been a real good winter
[13:23] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): not paying them ? that should have heavy consequences
[13:23] Dee Wells (promiscute): Reason has returned, one way or another
[13:23] zaida Gearbox thinks better of it and puts it away and makes a evil eye gesture at mr. underby instead
[13:23] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): why thank you Mr Underby, yes, makes me look more distinguished i think…

[13:32] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): impeccable timing
[13:32] Jedburgh Dagger (jedburgh30.dagger): Swamp gas
[13:32] zaida Gearbox mutters, “never trust a grow’d up!”
[13:33] Lady Gothly (ladymindpain.gothly): seems to me that food poisoning would be more plausible
[13:33] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) nods
[13:33] Henry (babbage.engineer): please let my chat show up….
[13:33] Cessadia Thetan: I must say, I do feel a bit woozy just now.
[13:33] Henry (babbage.engineer): there we go
[13:34] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): ponders whats in that box Underby put there and if its the cause
[13:34] Noah Lukas (noahalexander.ohare) hears the word food mentioned and looks around
[13:34] Henry (babbage.engineer): let’s go on to RFL since i appear to be crashing. lemme see if i can get rid of tenk too
[13:34] Henry (babbage.engineer): he is stuck
[13:34] Nymlet: I see your chat. and will now shut up.
[13:35] Garnet Psaltery: Get rid of Tenk?
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): Last year, after RFL
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): right. so we all good with the ice fishing camp?
[13:35] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra): There he goes.
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): He’s stuck
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): I had a strong notion to not participate this year
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): but
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): that would be a bummer for the folks that like to build camp
[13:35] Edward Pearse: I can see chat, just no sim
[13:35] Osric Worbridge: I crashed did the sim crash?
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): so
[13:35] zaida Gearbox: Someone broke tenk?
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): i needed a compromise
[13:35] Henry (babbage.engineer): so
[13:36] Henry (babbage.engineer): we will have an rfl team this year
[13:36] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra): Ice fishing sounds good.
[13:36] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): testing am i here ?
[13:36] Henry (babbage.engineer): may 31
[13:36] Henry (babbage.engineer): and our kickoff date will be
[13:36] Richardus Raymaker: the desiease is spreading beyong babbage now … ?
[13:36] Jimmy Branagh: Keep it simple and relatively stress free
[13:37] Henry (babbage.engineer): I won’t tell you not to fundraise until june, because what you do on your own land is your business, but i will not be putting kiosks out until june 1
[13:37] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) nods
[13:37] Jedburgh Dagger (jedburgh30.dagger) nods
[13:37] Henry (babbage.engineer): how do you feel about that?
[13:37] Henry (babbage.engineer): that gives us a nice 6 week season, an i bet 100 quatloos that we are going to finish just fine, like we always do.
[13:37] Gabrielle Riel: Excellent plan
[13:38] Arnold (gager): Yes, that’s a great plan
[13:38] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra): Less chance of burnout like this, yes.
[13:38] Henry (babbage.engineer): cool
[13:38] Osric Worbridge: Sounds good
[13:38] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse): will there be an auction this year? That’s the best way for me to participate – donating a build or two
[13:38] Henry (babbage.engineer): vic is on the steering committee this year, he will be laying out the track, so he’ll make sure we don’t miss any of our registration dates
[13:38] Nymlet: yeah, me to
[13:38] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): :-)
[13:39] Nymlet: acution that is. What penny said
[13:39] Henry (babbage.engineer): but seriously, i don’t think we need to hear about it before june. we’ll use a foot tappin friday for our kickoff party
[13:39] Garnet Psaltery: That will save a large number of minds and tempers
[13:39] Henry (babbage.engineer): yes, we will do the auctions, that’s always the big event of the fundraisign season
[13:39] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse) nods, pleased.
[13:39] Henry (babbage.engineer): and if we got any makers on board, i think we might be able to do a real world auction through ebay too.
[13:39] Henry (babbage.engineer): i
[13:39] Nymlet: I’ll donate some …brains. *grins*
[13:40] Henry (babbage.engineer): ‘ll put up a couple of my clocks.
[13:40] Henry (babbage.engineer): so.. that’s that
[13:40] Henry (babbage.engineer): all good?
[13:40] Jimmy Branagh: Yeps! SOunds good
[13:40] Nymlet: *thumbs up*
[13:40] Henry (babbage.engineer): great
[13:40] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): im sure i find something to donate too
[13:40] Henry (babbage.engineer): theme thise year is 100 years of hope
[13:41] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): yup
[13:41] Henry (babbage.engineer): my personal schedule, i’ll be out of town for the last week of february.
[13:41] Henry (babbage.engineer): in real ilfe, i’m in a complete panic to try and get my house ready for the market in march. so yes, i’m really distracted.
[13:42] Henry (babbage.engineer): i should be moving out to the big pile of straw and mud in april
[13:42] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): :D
[13:42] Henry (babbage.engineer): andn we’ll see how my internet is before making any plans past that
[13:42] Garnet Psaltery: Good luck
[13:42] Henry (babbage.engineer): Occupancy
[13:42] Henry (babbage.engineer): the map is looking better than it has in a while
[13:42] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): oh yes good luck
[13:42] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse) smiles
[13:43] Cessadia Thetan claps
[13:43] Arnold (gager) sighs hapily at that.
[13:43] Henry (babbage.engineer): we did take about a 10% downsize hit, in the vernian regions, so it was largely invisible from the surface
[13:43] Elina ‘Holmes’ (elina.koskinen): phew
[13:44] Henry (babbage.engineer): rght now we’re betwen 89.8% and 92.5%, vague because there is some land that may be abandoned that i have not been able to confirm.
[13:44] Nymlet: thats still quite good
[13:44] Henry (babbage.engineer): this is usaly the worst time of year for occupancy, so i’m feeling pretty damned good about that. we’re in good shape going into february. which is the scary time for esate owners.
[13:44] Henry (babbage.engineer): if i had not downsized, we’d be around 81%, just to compare
[13:45] Henry (babbage.engineer): righto
[13:45] Henry (babbage.engineer): looks like its a busy month
[13:45] Henry (babbage.engineer): moving into march
[13:45] Henry (babbage.engineer): first off, first week in march, cythleen is organizing a steampunk festival on some other sims
[13:45] Henry (babbage.engineer): this box next to me will give you more information on that
[13:46] Henry (babbage.engineer): she is looking for videos, music, builds, do catch up with her if you want to help out
[13:46] Henry (babbage.engineer): i believe she is japanese.
[13:46] Henry (babbage.engineer): but her english is pretty good.
[13:46] Henry (babbage.engineer): she just moved into canals next to the steamworks.
[13:46] Elleon Bergamasco: or German?
[13:46] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): no im german, but yes half japanese too
[13:47] Henry (babbage.engineer): at the end of the month, the HP Lovecraft folks are organizign a quest, which Mr. Pearse would like to get one of the stops here in town
[13:47] Henry (babbage.engineer): he asked for a vacant lot to use, we’ll have to play that by ear, but i think i can donate some land to support that.
[13:47] Edward Pearse nods
[13:47] Henry (babbage.engineer): i don’t have all the info on that
[13:47] Garnet Psaltery: I have a plot empty right now
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer): as for digging deep, not likely, you might have to to a skybox cavern.
[13:48] Jedburgh Dagger (jedburgh30.dagger): They are having planning meetings now
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer): great
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer) checks the time
[13:48] Edward Pearse: If you’re interested in helping out, IM me later
[13:48] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): may i post the blog for the festival ?
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer): i’ve got 2 candidates for the militia captiain spot
[13:48] Garnet Psaltery: I’ll IM you later
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer): i will prolly take them both. one is an american, the other an aussie.
[13:48] Henry (babbage.engineer): jed, we still love you
[13:49] Gabrielle Riel: Amen
[13:49] Jimmy Branagh: Yes!
[13:49] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) nods
[13:49] Henry (babbage.engineer): but i think you might need to see if we can get some cheaper coal for the fleet somewhere.
[13:49] Elleon Bergamasco nods
[13:49] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): oh no one from good old europe ?
[13:49] Henry (babbage.engineer): maybe an r&d mission
[13:49] Henry (babbage.engineer): to thule?
[13:49] Henry (babbage.engineer) grins
[13:49] Edward Pearse: There’s more Aussies in town?
[13:50] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): when all else fails. me jet always gets me where i need to be and quite efficiently
[13:50] Nymlet: WEll.. they thouight i wasnt… Hrrrmm.. honest enough for the position *winks*
[13:51] Henry (babbage.engineer): I do want to thank teh folks that particiapted in mr. undreby’s mayoral rp. its very hard to maintain the log story arcs, and it was a strain on him. there were some lessons learned, but overall, i thought it went well.
[13:51] Jimmy Branagh nods
[13:51] Arnold (gager) nods
[13:51] Garnet Psaltery: It was fun
[13:51] Leon (leon1.starsider): I enjoyed it alot
[13:51] zaida Gearbox grins
[13:51] Nathan Adored nods nods nods
[13:51] Avariel Falcon: Yay!
[13:51] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) grins
[13:51] Desylvain Lovekraft (desylvain.whitfield): it was fun
[13:51] Henry (babbage.engineer): which is encouraging. i had the brakes on roleplay for a while because the mood in teh city was rather volitile, and i wanted to see what would hapen if i let the pressure off. good job, everyone.
[13:52] Henry (babbage.engineer): next up
[13:52] Henry (babbage.engineer): port babbage welcome center!
[13:52] Henry (babbage.engineer): bookworm bought kaylees’ old wharf in the port for a welcome cneter, and it has yet to be realized.
[13:52] Nymlet: do they really work…?
[13:52] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): ohhhhhhhh is that the time?! must dash! *runs* rofl
[13:52] Henry (babbage.engineer): she needs some help with that.
[13:52] Nathan Adored giggles and chortles
[13:52] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver) looks around .. all around ..
[13:53] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): I nominate that Emperor to help, he loves meeting the new folk and stamping their passports.
[13:53] Osric Worbridge: What kind of help?
[13:53] Mariah Lanfier: Ideas for what to put in it… probably help building somethings.
[13:53] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): welcome centers are easy….
[13:53] Henry (babbage.engineer): mmhmmm
[13:53] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): nods nods what a lovely idea :) I second that ..
[13:53] Arnold (gager): I’ll lend a hand.
[13:53] Garnet Psaltery: isn’t there a small welcome point in the centre of Port though?
[13:53] Arnold (gager): Well, get with her.
[13:53] Mariah Lanfier: One thing I think we need is a poster that’s a “New Babbage: TL;DR Version.”
[13:53] Elleon Bergamasco: I always thought a souvenier shop would be nice…
[13:53] Henry (babbage.engineer): and my favorite fortnight is coming up, perfect time to break in a new welcome center
[13:53] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) nods
[13:53] Mariah Lanfier grins.
[13:53] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): thats what we are talking about ….
[13:53] Garnet Psaltery: What I mean is – why have both?
[13:53] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): a soruvenier shop sounds nice
[13:53] Henry (babbage.engineer): so lets think about that in conjunction with oiling festival
[13:54] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): she would like to improve it :) with help of others :)
[13:54] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): whispers to Desy. ‘i thought the welcome center was the Hotel :)))’
[13:54] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): well idea ?
[13:54] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): rofl Jewel!
[13:54] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): maybe we could have a contest of sorts
[13:54] Henry (babbage.engineer): yes, i don’t have to keep that kiosk taht i have. thigs can move.
[13:54] Garnet Psaltery nods
[13:54] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): book do you ant a build ?
[13:54] Edward Pearse: Combine the two and expand it
[13:54] Henry (babbage.engineer): let’s use it as the central point for oiling festival so it can get lived in
[13:54] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): or concept ?
[13:55] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra): Some of Vic’s pics would serve well inside.
[13:55] Edward Pearse: Some freebie gears for people to glue on things so it can be steampunk
[13:55] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): would it be ok to make advertise for the oiling festival outside from new babbage ?
[13:55] Nathan Adored: gi
[13:55] Nathan Adored giggles and chortles
[13:55] Henry (babbage.engineer): yes, absolutely cythleen
[13:55] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): well yes but skusting has some older ones as well :)

[13:55] Nathan Adored: *sure
[13:55] Tepic Harlequin: maybe a build a souvenir contest?
[13:55] Henry (babbage.engineer): teh original intent of oiling festival was to bring people here to try on our lifestyle for a week.

[13:55] Gabrielle Anatra (gabriell.anatra) needs to get going, dinnertime here.
[13:56] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): on this steampunk festival , i could advert for the oliing festival

[13:56] Henry (babbage.engineer): a housing for the elevator in the port
[13:56] Edward Pearse: We had a souvenir one before. That would good to resurrect that competition
[13:56] Henry (babbage.engineer): souvenier is good, yes
[13:56] Henry (babbage.engineer): we also need new clutter for the port
[13:57] Henry (babbage.engineer): and no sculpts
[13:57] Henry (babbage.engineer): all teh sculpted clutter is goign to be thrown away.
[13:57] Avariel Falcon: Meeeeeeesh!

[13:58] Henry (babbage.engineer): i’m never using it again
[13:58] Elleon Bergamasco looks confused
[13:58] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): oh that lift .. scary .. atm .
[13:58] Henry (babbage.engineer): right, we’re talking abuot the welcome center and the oiling festival at the same time.
[13:59] Henry (babbage.engineer): the shack of teh lift that goes down to the sea floor is a temporary thing. we need a permanent one. so that’s on the list.
[13:59] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse): I could use a mesh uploading primer from one of you mesh-gods. I can MAKE the mesh okay, but uploading it is another matter.
[13:59] Henry (babbage.engineer): the clutter taht is sculpted needs to be replaces with mesh.
[13:59] Henry (babbage.engineer): some of the bridges in wheatstone are starting to show thier age.
[14:00] Edward Pearse: That’s coz you keep changing the canal borders
[14:00] Jimmy Branagh: ((brb))

[14:08] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): The Free Press also has a telegraph machine
[14:08] Avariel Falcon: Although it has an antenna
[14:08] Nathan Adored: could the telegraph wires be underground?
[14:08] Zaros Xue: I think the sewers could do with a re-fit, there’s a few parts missing too, like out infront of Jim’s place.
[14:08] Henry (babbage.engineer): sewers is a prim battle.
[14:08] Elina ‘Holmes’ (elina.koskinen): Well, it better be…as there are no telegraph poles XD
[14:08] Elilka Sieyes: yet. ;)
[14:08] Jimmy Branagh chuckles

[14:08] Rel Klaber: spark gap transmission
[14:09] Edward Pearse: Mesh sewers? :-)
[14:09] Avariel Falcon: Rotating arc
[14:09] Nymlet: The poles are good Telegraphers.?
[14:09] Nathan Adored: coursem underground telegraph wires would be more of a nuisance to service if they get borked
[14:09] Henry (babbage.engineer): the morlocks might use them for thier speaker system
[14:09] Elina ‘Holmes’ (elina.koskinen): They would be visually nice looking too ;D
[14:09] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse) giggles
[14:09] Elina ‘Holmes’ (elina.koskinen): I saw some in a 1920’s sim.
[14:09] Henry (babbage.engineer): but you can[‘t see stuff in the sewers. i’ rather spend the prims above ground.
[14:10] Nathan Adored: tho I suppose that’s another thing they could hire us urchins to do…. crawl down there and fix the telegraph wires. :D
[14:10] Zaros Xue nod nods.
[14:10] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby) nods
[14:10] zaida Gearbox nods

[14:10] Henry (babbage.engineer): as a challenge
[14:10] Nymlet: how about a class just caleld ‘ communication’ ?
[14:10] Avariel Falcon: You need both telegraph poles are wall brackets for where wires are strung between buildings
[14:10] Henry (babbage.engineer): is it possible to get from one end of the city to antoher without touching the ground?

[14:11] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Starting where and ending where?
[14:11] Garnet Psaltery: I just took down a ladder from the Yard roof as I thought that wasn’t going anywhere
[14:11] Henry (babbage.engineer): just a thought as you are buidling.
[14:11] Arnold (gager): Oh right, still have to put in that connection from one warrens to another
[14:11] Arnold (gager): I’ll do that after.
[14:11] Henry (babbage.engineer): i know watson would love to do a rooftop quest or hunt
[14:11] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): I would too.
[14:11] Garnet Psaltery: I’ll put it back
[14:12] Noah Lukas (noahalexander.ohare) approaches the nearby person and attempts to lift the wallet from the person’s coat
[14:12] Henry (babbage.engineer): righto. open floor
[14:12] Nymlet: Yes.. that was on the list a few meetings back wasnt it?
[14:12] Edward Pearse: Be careful with that Arnold, don’t forget you’ve got a sim crossing between them
[14:12] Elilka Sieyes: My health sucks atm, but when I’ve recuperated a bit it is still on my list with a red line under it.

[14:12] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): i got something that tuies in with the welcome center…..
[14:12] Elilka Sieyes: thaw in march IIRC
[14:12] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): yeah snow goes first week of march edward
[14:12] Garnet Psaltery: Get well soon, Miss Sieyes
[14:12] Nathan Adored notices te pickpocketting going on, serepticiously checks to make sure his bag of quatloos is still safely in his pocket.
[14:12] Gabrielle Riel: Snow melts in march
[14:12] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): elbos Des, points to Noah
[14:12] Arnold (gager): Should be able to manage half the bridge one side half the other.
[14:12] Edward Pearse: OK
[14:12] Henry (babbage.engineer): thaw will be first week in march, after i get back from horology school
[14:13] Henry (babbage.engineer): i thoguth i’d treat myself as one of my last east coast adventures.
[14:13] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): :)
[14:13] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Well deserved.
[14:13] Garnet Psaltery: :o)
[14:13] Avariel Falcon: Yay!
[14:14] Henry (babbage.engineer): i might be hitting the convention trail when i get out west more and doing the art shows.
[14:14] Smilla (smilla.poitier): Good evening, Baron. I hope you’re well? It’s been a while since I’ve seen Gilgamesh.
[14:14] Henry (babbage.engineer): anyone else?
[14:14] Noah Lukas (noahalexander.ohare) carefully edges the wallet out from the persons coat seeing that the person is distracted listening to the talk
[14:14] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): i got something….
[14:14] Breezy Carver Fabre (breezy.carver): it s kind of fun to see Henry so talkative and an artist show critic as well :)
[14:14] Henry (babbage.engineer): go!
[14:14] Zaros Xue: Well, me and Kea need some examples of clockwork plant life too, prim count isn’t an issue since we could re-make the entries in mesh if they’re too much LI, but the creators of the plants will be listed in the rooftop garden with plaques near their creations, so if there’s room in the festival, that could be entered.
[14:15] Henry (babbage.engineer): plants?
[14:15] Henry (babbage.engineer): ok
[14:15] Henry (babbage.engineer): that’s a hard one, but its doable
[14:15] Avariel Falcon: Clockwork plants!
[14:15] Arnold (gager): I think there were plants at last years oiling festival
[14:15] Henry (babbage.engineer) crosses off hunting trophies and puts in plants
[14:15] Zaros Xue: Clockwork plants, be they with cogs, watches, metal etc etc.
[14:15] Nymlet: Nooo…
[14:15] Henry (babbage.engineer): yes, there were
[14:15] Nymlet: hunting tophies is fun to….
[14:15] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): the destination guide listing for the city drops folks basically in the middle of nowhere next to Cleanslates hotel, they then walk off that platform and then mess up the side of cleanslates with prims… we need a secon welcome center at that spot.
[14:16] Nymlet: (( and im collecting them to my parlor…))
[14:16] Henry (babbage.engineer): move the landing point?
[14:16] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): if you like to get a live music concert or an comedian show for the festival i can arrange it, maybe could take place at the old brewery ?
[14:16] Henry (babbage.engineer): htey get droppe dthere because the land forces them to go there.
[14:16] Avariel Falcon: Live music is always good
[14:16] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): i suppose LL could be contacted to move the landing spot to the welcome center in port…
[14:16] Amadeus Hammerer: of course!
[14:17] Henry (babbage.engineer): i think port would be a better landing point.
[14:17] Gabrielle Riel: Tenk or an EM can do that Vic
[14:17] Henry (babbage.engineer): tht will need a guide edit tho
[14:17] Osric Worbridge: indeed
[14:17] Tepic Harlequin: fraid i’ve hit my sleep wall, night all!
[14:17] Gabrielle Riel: There are a few ways to set it up
[14:17] Henry (babbage.engineer): put it in the welcome center?
[14:17] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): i can contact them, ive dealt with Brett Linden a few times with destination guide stuff
[14:17] Jimmy Branagh: Noight Tep
[14:17] Arnold (gager): Night Tepic
[14:17] Avariel Falcon: Goodnight Tepic
[14:17] Henry (babbage.engineer): night tep
[14:17] Leon (leon1.starsider): night tepic
[14:17] Henry (babbage.engineer): great vic. make it happen
[14:17] Garnet Psaltery: The Back Room is newly extended and available for concerts
[14:17] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): night tepic
[14:17] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): finds that she enjoys when she is forced to land outside a fine drinking establishment
[14:17] Osric Worbridge: Welcome center makes sense
[14:18] Jedburgh Dagger (jedburgh30.dagger): goodnight Tepic
[14:18] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): There is a huge room above the Bucket that is never used
[14:18] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): a lot of the new folks are coming into the city via two places… the destination guide, where they get lost and leave, and my hotel :D
[14:18] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse) smiles at Jewel
[14:18] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): prims are tightish, but it could be used for things as well
[14:18] Henry (babbage.engineer): osric, can you act as the info point on the ice fishing build?
[14:18] Osric Worbridge: OK
[14:18] Henry (babbage.engineer): you’ll have to appoint a mayor once there is enough shacks, of course. as is proper for an ice fishing camp
[14:19] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby): Oh dear.
[14:19] Henry (babbage.engineer) grins
[14:19] Jimmy Branagh: hehe
[14:19] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): maybe guided tours ?
[14:19] Osric Worbridge: grins
[14:19] Captain Alexis (alexis.sommerfeld): Wait, I am renting the parcel I am currently on strictly because it’s so close to the landing point.
[14:19] Henry (babbage.engineer): i imagine lupindo is going to be in rare form on this one.
[14:19] Jewel Lovekraft (msladyjewel.zsigmond): reflects back to how welcomed she felt once she stumbled into the Hotel as she was extremely parched from being extremely disoriented
[14:19] Henry (babbage.engineer): the square landing point isn’t moving.
[14:20] Osric Worbridge: Lupindo will love it.
[14:20] Nathan Adored: so, duzzat mean the current landing point is…a disorrientation center? :D
[14:20] Cyhtleen Earhart (cyhtleen): lol
[14:20] Henry (babbage.engineer): in this lag? yes.
[14:20] Jedburgh Dagger (jedburgh30.dagger): and Olaf
[14:20] Captain Alexis (alexis.sommerfeld) nods.
[14:20] Avariel Falcon: ^_^
[14:20] Henry (babbage.engineer): anything else before we dismiss?
[14:20] Captain Alexis (alexis.sommerfeld) applies apple slices and sugar cubes.
[14:20] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): its just odd that the lab chose that spot for the destination guide listing… and not City Hall… very strange
[14:21] Henry (babbage.engineer): again, thanks to mr. underby for sticking it out as acting mayor. that could not have been easy.
[14:21] Gabrielle Riel: I am going to create the transcript of this meeting, although I am not sure what to do with it. Give it to someone to send it in a notice? Post it on the BAR? Give it to Tenk? All of the above? None?
[14:21] zaida Gearbox runs across the room and hugs miz elleon and miz breezy
[14:21] Mr Underby (yoyo.underby) bows
[14:21] Nathan Adored: I’d say post it to the BAR at least
[14:21] Edward Pearse: BAR post
[14:21] Jimmy Branagh: I’d like a copy Miss Gabrielle :)
[14:21] Penny Dreadful (gothicmuse): I’m curious – do we have a postal service, or just a general delivery office? I’m expecting news soon about that whole Egypt mess.
[14:21] Henry (babbage.engineer): post it to the bar. i usualy post it in 10 minute sections through comments
[14:21] Vic Mornington (victor1st.mornington): yay Mr Underby
[14:21] Elina ‘Holmes’ (elina.koskinen): oh, it’s called BAR now ? ::D

[14:22] Jimmy Branagh applauds Mr. Underby, now a thug
[14:22] zaida Gearbox kicks underby and then hides behind breezy
