OOC Ceasefire; Northern Stuff

Bloodhearte · Post by **Bloodhearte** » Mon May 31, 2004 7:28 pm

There is one heck of a mess going on with the OOC aspects of Northerot, so Hagen, myself, and Gwynnether request a stopping of events, meetings, and attacks until everything is straightened out. We would like to know what the GMs conditions are for these current events, and we would like to make sure that the majority of it is controlled by players without interference.

So all attackers, defenders and prisoners, please stop the action temporarily.

Thanks,
-PO Vahkos

...in agreeance.....

Whats there to sort out...? Lyrenzia guards took over Northerot. Some are outside in the courtyard, others are in the castle. Northerot guards and Grant are trying to uproot Lyrenzia and take Northerot as there own again.
But yeah, I deffinetly agree, I do not like how GMs got involved with this, even when Darlok was alive, it was impossible to beat him cause of super powers. but then i cannot complain about this since Grant got uber powers for a short time too.. I dunno, I think the GMs shouldnt dictate what happens ingame. I think it got out of hand with the Northerot guards and Lyrenzia guards.
And all the powers that went with it...

@Grant

Well despite the fact that you haven't been in game for months, your still trying to say your right, well if you had been on yesterday, you would know that Notherot changed hands about four times in as many hours, as Zerbus attacked, won, counted attacked and ran away, then he counter attacked and won, then we counter attacked and won, and now I don't know who controls Notherot right now, so untill everything is established, I agree with no more fighting.

Grant Herion · Post by **Grant Herion** » Mon May 31, 2004 10:51 pm

Well, whoever controls the castle controls Northerot right? Obviously lyrenzia people held the castle. Maybe the castle shouldnt have gates in the first place then. either way, it hasnt been months, maybe a single month.

Moathia · Post by **Moathia** » Mon May 31, 2004 10:53 pm

It's not that obvious, Zerbus could hold the caslte for all I know right now.

Grant Herion · Post by **Grant Herion** » Mon May 31, 2004 10:56 pm

Your right. I see the need for a ceasefire.

No fighting? ok, more time for training.

Yeah the GM's should really help out in these wars, since without them, we will keep fighting till we all quit. Besides, all the GM stuff is fun, like you can rp blowing up a wall and the GM's can really take it away.

Grant Herion · Post by **Grant Herion** » Mon May 31, 2004 11:00 pm

But whichever side has a GM is going to win no matter the numbers. Or skills.

Grubba · Post by **Grubba** » Mon May 31, 2004 11:16 pm

No I mean have a GM watching the battle, not on anyone's side.

You intertwine two GMs into the two opposing sides. And they fight in major battles.

Grubba · Post by **Grubba** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 4:58 am

Uhhh... yeah, that would work too. Just as long as it's fair on both sides.

Arkadia Misella · Post by **Arkadia Misella** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 5:18 am

Grant. You should cease gathering your "army" to take back Northerot at this moment. Please respect the request made. There is much still to be sorted.

Galim · Post by **Galim** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 1:07 pm

Arkadia is right. after such big fights (and that were big fights) the troops must rest, gather and prepare the next fights. an army cannot fight each day or severel times a day. not in time were war doesn't mean walking and shooting, but walking in heavy metal and swinging huge, heavy weapons for hours.

The GMs can help out those who need help resisting, but not make them invincible.

I don't like the fact that the only way for it to be taken over is if skills are used to defeat whoever currently owns it. Surely, there are many more possibilites than "slice, slice, bash, 'BAM, I own Northerot now!' log-out-in-castle."

WAIT WAIT WAIT! Hold up

an army cannot fight each day or severel times a day.

Now you guys agree...not the time I said when the orcs hunted every night...so switch it around to your advantage. Even though I agree with the cease-fire

Arkadia Misella · Post by **Arkadia Misella** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 9:00 pm

Val..you are still breaking the cease fire...or you did anyway...by talking with grant and such...no mettings, or talks, or anything should be taking place...think of it as though everything just froze

Val De Gausse · Post by **Val De Gausse** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 9:04 pm

When me and Grant talked it was just about what happened...maybe one or two sentences slipped about a plan. Also I wasn't unaware of that. I met grant before the cease-fire was announced too..

That's like saying we aren't allowed to play anymore. It's going to be impossible to get an entire "cease fire" thing out...

Grant Herion · Post by **Grant Herion** » Tue Jun 01, 2004 11:18 pm

Actually after the cease-fire me and Val did meet. But it didnt occur to me that it was wrong. We didnt talk about anything, just that Grant needed his old physical strength back, or at least be able to beat sheep with his flies.

It doesn't mean you can't play anymore. Just stop influencing actions or plans IG regarding Northerot and its occupation.

Duh.

You have to be kidding me, what Galim said makes perfect sense, but stopping planning is like stopping time.
