Here is the summary for the 142nd All Guilds Meeting, along with the raw and cleansed chatlogs! Minasunda announced the start of MOULa’s XII Anniversary Week, and thanked Mirphak and Yoda for their support in organizing the events. She asked all visitors to respect the work of the hosts and do not use any bot commands that could affect the events. The task of the Fire meets Water competition is to bring 36 fire marbles sorted by color into the correspondingly marked bay. Players will need a marker game to see the field markings (to get it PM “sendme 6621621” to Mir-o-Bot). Throwing in the marbles is the first challenge: this will be done by the 3 referees with a complicated procedure designed to keep the marbles in the pool and prevent them from scattering through the whole age. Anyone who is not in Ahnonay at this time and misses the first throw-in will not be able to see the Firemarbles. Also, if someone leaves the Age it may cause a crash for others, especially the bot. Hence the very urgent request to players and spectators to stay in the Age until the event is over. After the end of the competition there will be an award ceremony. This is the first time this game is played since 2018 due to the above difficulties. There are 6 teams so far. Teams will start one after the other and consist of 2 players each. You have 5 minutes to place as many marbles as possible in the correct bay. Each correct marble earns one point, each incorrect one deducts a point. Maximum score is 36. The color change of the water indicates the end of the match. Players leave the pool immediately by PMing “w” to MinBot (KI 9292763). Mina posts the events every day on Facebook and on the MOULa Events Discord server If you need help with organising an event (not only for the festivities), or just want to spread the word about it, you can join Minasunda’s Discord server, Facebook group, or you can contact her via KImail (#5667000). The Cavern Tour will be held on Saturday 12 at 11:00 KIT, starting from the Cavern Tour’s Hood. The host, Larry LeDeay, will use his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background. Videos will be available for two weeks after the tour. The stream will be simulcasted on Facebook and Youtube. This month the Tour will continue the exploration of the Myst V Ages. The tours occasionally visit hard to reach places. Mir-o-Bot (KI# 32319) is often employed for special effects and long-distance travel (and to avoid stairs). If you arrive late, you can PM Susa’n (KI# 9122427) to join the in-progress tour – but do try to arrive in time! Korov’ev gave a quick update on the Fan Ages Expeditions he is hosting on the Deep Island shard, every Sunday at 11:00 KIT. In January they visited the entries of the first Rapid Age Development contest: Abysos, a couple of Ahra Pahts shells, and Zephyr Cove; then a few assorted ages: Aerie, TINA Testing Area, Kahntinoy, Fena Barel (the last two involved in fan-run ‘episodes’ held in 2008). They finished the month in Tunnel Demo, Soundgarden and Wianeroy. For February, the plan is to visit the entries for the Second RAD contest: a group of Ahra Pahts shells. Then, a few works by Andy Legate and by Whilyam. They will finish the month with the Third RAD and DAWN contests entries, probably in two parts. R’Tayrtahn gave two announcements, one for the D’ni Language Classes and one for the Story Nights. Shokhootahn Ana has just finished teaching her first 101 class! Story Night Europe and Original Story Night are in synch, and are starting the stories of the kings of D’ni, which will go on for the next 31 weeks. R’Tayrtahn has restarted upload recordings of the Nights to his YouTube channel, and is in the process of uploading the backlog of videos from previous sessions. Be careful if you PM r’Tay, as messages will be visible in the videos 😉 And that was it for this month. Please consider donating to keep the Cavern open! January ended with the CavFunding at 94% (CavCon 2.9) and the reserve at 534%, with no extra expenses. Population was at 43,641 (⇑665), with 1582 unique visits. A normal good month, with above average for new accounts. The next All Guilds Meeting is planned for Saturday, March 5 (Leevotar 21) at 13:00 KIT. The role of Moderator is currently vacant; if anyone would like to take the role, it is your chance to step up 😉 Until then!
