For something that changes the game mechanics as much as this does, and impacts purchasing and use of credits, I sure am glad I got a good old heads up. Please, don't blow up Cyrene (but yes, let us have all of the clockwork things).
I'm just pissed that Mhaldor is losing a House and going down to three. How the fuck am I supposed to make shitty jokes about Baelgrim Fortress being Hogwarts, and having the four houses Gryffindor (Maldaathi), Slytherin (Naga), Ravenclaw (Congregation) and Hufflepuff (Ebon Fist)?
EDIT: Come on. Not even -Ebonfist- are surprised that Ebonfist is Hufflepuff.
yeah no. It's in a good place. I know that Cyrenians have -such- a good idea on what Targ needs, but I think we'll do without your expert advice on how to run a city. Thanks though.
Aye, more fighting! Gives us something to watch while we wait for the rennaissance to happen in Cyrene (at the moment about 12 RL days later than the ingame announce promised)
Oh, woe, they are a little late. Gods forbid they somehow can't predict the time it'll take to do something down to the second.
Agreed. When are they going to finish this already. I am just so impatient. What do I do until they're done!
(the joke is i haven't been logged in for months now and probably won't log in before they're finished even if it takes them another month or so)
I've been playing minecraft. Join us!!
Commission List: Aesi, Kenway, Shimi, Kythra, Trey, Sholen .... 5/5 CLOSED I will not draw them in the order that they are requested... rather in the order that I get inspiration/artist block.
So the renaissance has begun. Quite interesting the way they did it. Here is what I witnessed IC -Something deep within the pit of your soul stirs, and your heart quickens with ominous portent. A feeling of pride overwhelms you as visions of the Mojushai and their many deeds fill your mind. Strong memories flood you with fondness as you recall the friendships forged within your great House. Strength... Benevolence... Humility... these virtues echo over and over within your mind.
Thank you @Tecton and crew for allowing us that brief glimpse of our accomplishments. It really made saying goodbye a little easier.
Not even to mention that only those few who were present when it happened got this. For the others it was just... login - hwho - "You have no house."
IC, Iocun still doesn't even have a good reason to believe that the house no longer exists. The estate is still there, the people are still there. Nothing changed, except that the house commands no longer work and that there were some weird prophecies and symbolical smoke in the air. But no person, no power actually dissolved the house in any form that could be observed and understood.

hehehe, sounds like someone is asking for trouble! Destroy!!!
Originally they had a full theatre-length production planned where Cyrene helped Maklak ascend to the head of the Conclave, and in return for their help, he enslaved us and gifted us new Houses in as part of his new world order. But JJ Abrams was busy with Star Wars and couldn't write our action sequences, and Benedict Cumberbatch called and turned down playing Slith, so when Cyrene voted to swap over to Yhudi anyway, Sarapis said "Fuck it, give them a world emote and let's move on."
Also they have 4 more cities and 16 more Houses to get to, so not everything needs a month-long event.
-- Grounded in but one perspective, what we perceive is an exaggeration of the truth.

Technically, house commands exist ICly. If nothing else, house channels are very real things, but I'd personally believe even things like HWHO are very real telepathic networks that house members can tap into for information. House scrolls as well.

I'm not sure that Cyrene's actually broken nor that it really needs fixing. I am certain that @Verrucht could fix Targossas if he defected.
@Jamethiel if anyone could fix that place it would be him...not sure it is fixable though.
@Veldrin well played.
No need to be so defensive about it.
And you won't understand the cause of your grief...
...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
there's a difference between being defensive and telling people that they're wrong when they're insulting an org you belong to.
Some of us could really find a comedy club and LEARN 15 HUMOUR FROM COMEDIAN ... sheesh.
Hi, have you listened to half the crap people say about Cyrene? Get over it.
No. Let's fight!

Seriously. Get a grip

Still not much of an IC explanation though...

Cue Xenomorphs. Acid blood should take care of the house halls.

That sounds suspiciously like the click that began autoclass, just flowered up a little.

Rare footage of @Tecton as he contemplates the next project:
Cascades of quicksilver light streak across the firmament as the celestial voice of Ourania intones, "Oh Jarrod..."
Use that dexterity.

@nim How about you actually get in game and do something useful?
Never!
I might get in the game or I might do something useful, but never both at once. That would just be silly.
