Who the hell don't like Pete?

Communists, robots, and Sonders.

All joking aside, we're hacking Promethean and looking at solutions for player engagement that doesn't require staff intervention. I am really really really on this Automation kick. One of the complaints I hear from Staff is the burnout from having to process and handstat applications (our CG as you know is very manual), along with the other weird ticky minutiae that comes with that.

Fallcoast was a pretty rushed job; I'm not proud of that but I was really trying to escape TR and all of the baggage that came with that. There were also some uh.. personality issues that I feel hampered its creation, along with 'Oh yeah, we'll totes get that done soon', and us not doing a good job of writing shit down.

We're hoping to apply a lot of things we've learned and automate things that Staff should never have to touch while building a pretty bitchin' story and framework. With that, I hope to produce one of the "better products" out there so don't write us off just yet.

Considering how many paragraphs of orgasm descriptions and poor-to-pretty-decent smut I had to read and/or skim during my tenure as app staff with two spheres on TR, just sayin’...

I was always the most uncomfortable with the decent smut. Luckily on FC people seem to have run out of smutty background ideas but I'm sure I'll be rewarded tomorrow with a pornographic Changeling durance.

We’re hope to come up with something a little bit different this time. I’m reading everyone’s suggestions and feedback, and I appreciate it.

Here are some suggestions based on my experience.

• Please, for the love of Pete, cut down on the number of alts.
• Please, for the love of Pete, cut down on the number of spheres.
• And, please, for the love of Pete, adopt some sort of system that allows PCs to engage with the world without staff intervention.

Most of us have fond memories of The Reach and Fallcoast, and would like that to continue, but there are better products being put out there.

I'm sorry about the game crashing. We had a space issue but I believe it's fixed.

Poptart is one of the most amazing, attentive Staffers I've ever come across. You guys will love him in Geist.

If you can't find it easily, I'll help you get it from FC.

The job I'm leaving is firing 30+ year veterans of the company and walking them out. It's awful and sad and I can't deal with it.

Two more days.

@arkandel I just saw this comment just now -- no offense taken. I have no ill will for you at all and you're welcome to try it out should you ever feel like it. If not, no big deal!

(She says like 4 months later)

To add, we had a quiet spot for a bit but we have some new Staff, I'm looking to hire more, and we have an initiative to drum up some plot and all that jazz. Let me know if you have any questions, thank you!

Giving this a bump. Come visit!

We're offering a small XP incentive to return to Fallcoast and play. I'm looking for Staff (returning and new) and am interested in getting some plots up and running.

Let me know if you're interested and if you return, mention this ad to collect your incentive.

I had to do some resets beside the server issue as well. Thanks for the heads up on here guys.

I keep having to kill the netmux process and I wasn't around to do it this weekend (after the game being stable for a month). I apologize for the downtime that anyone experienced. Just posting it here for visibility and also advice if possible.

Thanks.

I loved Lachlan. This is such heartbreaking news. We had a ton of fun in Minecraft and gaming in general.

Doesn't that Nymeria chick flip the fuck out if people make Game of Thrones MUs and have them shut down?

Does anyone know his characters on TR? I'm horrible at remembering what staff goes to what alt, or what staff covered what.

Hvit, Kaleo, Smith, and Brant.

Add elements of that newfangled Valerian movie or whatever the hell it's called. I LOVE SCIFI. Scifi games sound amazing.

This has been some awful, awful news.

I'd play on that shit.
