Yoldran: We then moved on to the issue of street names in Moonglow
Lavos: I call the bank!
Kabach Cryonax: *thinks ooh Kabach Avenue, and Cryonax Row*
Lavos: *Lavos Lane*
Yoldran: Greypawn presented a map and the summit agreed on it with just one change ..
Lavos: *raises eyebrow*
Yoldran: You can see the naming on a skypage
Yoldran: www.greypawn.com/MTC/roadmap.jpg
Lavos: *note to self regualy check sky page*
Lavos: uhh send me the link later?
Yoldran: The only change to make in this map is to change
Squonk: *points out the upper case MTC*
Yoldran: "Yoldran Avenue" into "avenue of Truth"
Lavos: i thought this was the shrine of honesty?
Lavos: Oh my god! I am in the wrong shrine Council!!
Yoldran: That was my report about the summit - any questions? .. LAvos?
Lavos: ahem
Lavos: aye
Lavos: about the Zoo
Squonk: *chuckles*
Lavos: I do not like the idea's that our "gods" gave us
Lavos: I say either let the players burn it
Kabach Cryonax: hmmm]
Kabach Cryonax: Yoldran Avenue??
Lavos: or let them replace it with something else! like a theater!
Lavos: because animals?
Yoldran: Nay - Kabach - that is changed
Lavos: what where they thinking?!?1
Yoldran: into Avenue of Truth
Kabach Cryonax: ah - yes I hear the 'echo' now
Lavos: -ends-
Squonk: *rolls eyes*
Lavos: *grumbles*
Yoldran: Well - Lavos - all at the summit agreed that
Yoldran: the zoo in its current state is no use
Yoldran: *nods*
Squonk: *nods*
Kabach Cryonax: in honour of Yoldie we could have Muffin Lanje?
Lavos: then turn it into something else!!
Yoldran: So the gods will either have to give it back its original use or do something else
Yoldran: We will have to wait what their answer is
Lavos: *grumbles* animals indeed hmp might as well go and commite suicide in a high dungeon spawn!
Yoldran: Other questions/ commends about the summit?
Squonk: *raises hand*
Yoldran: Yes?
Squonk: The street naming we feel will become particularly useful
Brage: *looks paql*
Squonk: to the guards in future...
Kabach Cryonax: they wont get lost so often?
Squonk: we can say "He's getting away down Blue Street"
Squonk: *eyes Kabach coldly*
Squonk: and all know where to head
Kabach Cryonax: to the nearest pub knowing the guards
Squonk: Did m'lord mention that there was some talk...
Squonk: *ignores Kabach*
Squonk: of the possibility
Kabach Cryonax: : grins an d thinks ahhh tis good tobe back!
Squonk: that the gods might be petitioned for actual street signs to be installed?
Squonk: -ends
Squonk: *glares at the ex-constable*
Kabach Cryonax: *raises hand in a serious manner*
Squonk: *rolls eyes some more*
Yoldran: I didnt mention that one as it is highly unprobable
Squonk: *nods*
Squonk: *and agrees*
Yoldran: Kabach?
Kabach Cryonax: AS I understand it these changes are [ooc server] specific
Kabach Cryonax: and we lost our chair and table giver
Kabach Cryonax: are these changes likely here?
Kabach Cryonax: I mean chairs in here and the zoo
Kabach Cryonax: ?
Kabach Cryonax: ends
Yoldran: Both - furniture and zoo is on all shards
Lavos: *grumbles stone animals in deed*
Yoldran: I do not htink that the gods will do anything of this
Kabach Cryonax: *nods to Lavos*
Yoldran: neither give back furniture - nor doing anything with the zoo ...
Lavos: tch i was GM things would be different
Yoldran: however it is at least a way to "protest" against the situation if a petition is done
Squonk: *nods to Yoldran*
Yoldran: even if it doesnt help much
Lavos: I would protest about the zoo!
Kabach Cryonax: yeah well the zoo was killed for good reason but that reason has *[partially* gone
Yoldran: *nods*
Lavos: thats gone done for like 3 years now!
Kabach Cryonax: pardon Lavos?
Lavos: why dont they just freggin change it to something usefull?
Yoldran: They cannot change the structure of the building itself
Yoldran: It is part of the land
Kabach Cryonax: they could easily replace the animals should they choose
Lavos: can't they atleast Upgrade it?
Lavos: you know loose a few things and add a few things
Lavos: it could be turned into a mini markrt place
Lavos: guards
Yoldran: Yes Kabach - we thought on perhaps giving us some kind of statues instead of real animals
Lavos: BAH!
Yoldran: they might give sounds of the animals and look like them
Yoldran: this isnt very good of course - but at tleast better than nothing
Yoldran: (and it doesnt produce lag)
Lavos: One is sorry but i have to go and open up my pub
Kabach Cryonax: hehe the gods should merely reduce the island spawn ever so slightly to recompense
Squonk: Farewell Lavos
Lavos: I have to leave
Yoldran: farwell LAvos

Yoldran: i am not sure if we should ..?
Yoldran: what do you think?
Squonk: *raises hand*
Yoldran: Aye?
Squonk: Rgerettably I do think it would be better to wait until we have the captain in place
Squonk: I know that a lot of our business here
Squonk: is "on hold" while we wait
Squonk: but I would rather we wait and do things properly
Squonk: than rush through them and.,... welll...
