This was a fantastic event -- love the new grounds and the plethora of options to choose from!
I had a blast for sure, and am already looking forward to the next one! :)

Thanks to everyone who came! Things moved very quickly, and I think we didn't get to RP as much as we'd like to have. I have some ideas on how to handle that in the future, but we'll see. We're looking at our schedules for the next run! Swears will be added, hopefully this next time, as well!
Thanks to GMs Tamuz and Haliste for their amazing efforts today (as always). Also to GM Kaikala for her tireless QC efforts, and GM Vanah for all her behind the scenes code magic. And to APM Wyrom for letting me run wild with this Academy, which will continue to grow! Etc, etc!
And... did anyone even look at the desks in the dorm rooms?

Thank you so much -- this was a blast! My only worry was that I could only get three services this time around. I will absolutely be signing up for the next run.
I'm ashamed to say I didn't look at the desks. I was too busy scrawling things on the chalkboards and trying to figure out which services I wanted first. I'll see them soon, I hope!

Thrilled to have gotten a new verb and two preps, but I felt sort of rushed in the two hour time-frame. More than likely that was due to it taking a half- hour of the two hours to figure out how to get to the Laboratory. (Thanks Japhrimel!)
I didn't get a chance to actually look at any of the area closely, and was a little disappointed in that.

Lots of fun. Glad I decided to return when I did, as these sorts of events are right up my alley. The choices I made further solidified my character's personality, and that's the coolest part of this game.
My only regret was I couldn't climb the tree. Climbing skill issue or a puzzle I didn't figure out? Anyway, great event and worth the $.

Unfortunately, I was at my friend's birthday party last night, and the event was 7am Sunday morning for me. So I was very zombie-like and didn't explore the grounds too much or make much of an effort for RP etc.
Still had a lot of fun though!
I think the touch with handing a potion to each character for the spell preparations was a neat way to RP that particular release.

Especially when I found out it was sugar-water. I'm not sure if that means there was a placebo effect involved or if it was the spoonful of sugar that helped the "medicine" go down, but I agree -- very fun!
Speaking of great roleplay, Splat the cat was utterly horrifying. Made me sad I didn't get an arrival/departure message.

Kaldonis has a dead rabbit, but I was too lazy to get it out and feign that the cat was giving threatening looks to my pet.

Re: Summit Expression Faire on 03/01/2015 05:32 PM CST
I really loved this event, short, fun and definitely worth it. I would ask though, maybe before the next one you hold a premium contest or something for cleric spell preps? It would be super cool, some awesome evil/dark messaging for some of the cleric spells would be fantastic.
Another thing that would be cool, is learning a language for silvers or something. (I know I keep pushing it.)

I can't tell you how much I'd love my main PC to learn another language. I suspect if it ever happens, it will be a long and arduous process, haha!
We're still taking submissions for spell preps and everything else, by the way. Please feel free to email your ideas to me and Tamuz.

The stage gesturing was spontaneous. When you went, Japhrimel, I said out loud, "OH GOD HE WENT!" and laughed myself silly. It was originally intended to be more of a, "You're fabulous! You should be in show business!" thing, but I ran with it and so did many!

We've been welcoming submissions for quite some time! Either email myself and Liia (GS4-Tamuz@play.net and GS4-Liia@play.net) or post them up here. They may be changed/tinkered with/etc. but we'll try to get them available for future runs of the Faire.

I had a wonderful time and it was awesome. I just wish I wasn't confused and caught off guard so much since I misinterpreted how it was working since I had originally thought it was one spell prep for just one spell.. not that it would effect all of them so that caught me by surprise and it was certainly welcoming since then I got two more fun signature verbs :-)
Thank you again!

Re: Summit Expression Faire on 03/02/2015 04:12 PM CST
We are planning another run in a few weeks (details still being ironed out)! We will be including SWEARS in the next run, as well, so there will be one more Academy staff person to meet!

>>Will the extra SWEAR MINEs Tamuz hintyhinted at be availbs for the next runski?
I hinted at nothing. I inquired if there would be interest in additional SWEARs per character. The response was overwhelmingly positive, so it's something I'll look at in the future as time allows.

>I can't tell you how much I'd love my main PC to learn another language. I suspect if it ever happens, it will be a long and arduous process, haha!
I've taken a recent (specific) interest in this, as well. I've always really loved the idea of learning languages, ever since I started playing, but more for the curiosity of how it could work, or how languages could actually be coded and other things. I must have read too much Tolkien (if that's possible).
Still, I have to say, the biggest issue to learning languages, to my mind, was a coding process to allow it. An RP-based pay-event definitely seems like the place to toggle that boolean on our character database like a light switch, even if it doesn't necessarily make sense in the real world.

I sense a lack of dedication here! Don't you people have any priorities?!
It was all ruined for me the day Wyrom said Kenstrom is not a golem chained up in his basement.

(I am obviously being very sarcastic, and always appreciate the hard work of GMs.)

If it's unique to someone, it would go under a custom verb, not the premade signature verbs available at this event.
You could do SENSE and have it be your own special flavor, and still use the regular sense that's available in game, yes.
>signature sense
You sniff the air, then wet the tip of your finger with your mouth and hold it up, feeling for the direction of the wind.
RangerGuy sniffs the air, then wets the tip of his finger with his mouth and holds it up, feeling for the direction of the wind.
As an example. But don't take that one, because I think I might just add it as a general option for the next run!

I like that visual! However, it wouldn't work in all areas (indoors, places w/o grass) so we can't use that here. Signature verbs cannot do checks or limitations on those things. Feel free to email me directly if you have other ideas, or keep posting!
