Gaile Gray Talks Tuesday January 1, 2008
Summary
- Several districts did not have the event which may be caused by the districts being formed after the event was supposed to start.
- Does not know if there will be a Canthan New Year this year.
Complete log
Gaile Gray: Event in just under two hours. :)
Gaile Gray: It's nice to see you, too. :)
Gaile Gray: Thanks for being here, and I'm goign to go out and share the word about the event start time.
Gaile Gray: (There seems to be some confusion. :) )
Gaile Gray: Froggie promised that he'd skate in from whatever "soiree" he was attending, yes.
Gaile Gray: See you later, guys! *wave*
Gaile Gray: No murders during Wintersday.
Gaile Gray: And please, let's remember kids come to see this, and keep the language clean, ok? :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, dear, which side shall I choose!?!?
Gaile Gray: Hold on, you're saying I should go without a hat!?!>?!
Gaile Gray: Go help her up!
Gaile Gray: I have heard that voice, something about "listen to the dark side..."
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Neb. :)
Gaile Gray: Ok, how about fireworks while we wait?
Gaile Gray: I have no hats. Sorry! :( :(
The Frog: The Frog is here. Seldom would The Frog miss an event based on liquid consumables.
Gaile Gray: I had a feeling the boo... consumables would pull you out of your "abode."
The Frog: The Frog vows to reach Level 11 in a certain title that he shall not mention.
Gaile Gray: I think h e means (((drunkard))).
Gaile Gray: Which begs the question, are there 11 levels? :)
The Frog: This is the very subject that The Frog has vowed to research in depth.
The Frog: No matter the sacrifice. For the scientific reasonings.
Gaile Gray: Oh, thanks, Ivan. :)
The Frog: The Frog shall say not a word on the subject. Except that did you know that Egg Nog, when spiked, has no shelf life?
Gaile Gray: Goodness. :)
Gaile Gray: I have a note in to James and his team about whether there will be a Canthan New Year. I do not know yet.
Gaile Gray: TY Thors. :)
Gaile Gray: Froggie, before it begins....
The Frog: That is most kind.
Gaile Gray: Thought you might like it. :)
Gaile Gray: No, there are two hats. One Grenth, one Dwayna, which you may obtain in either town.
Gaile Gray: Speak of other town, who is holding down the fort in Kamadan?
The Frog: Cousin Bertram the Silent, as usual.
Gaile Gray: Ah, nice of him.
Gaile Gray: Ok, if you have sufficient liquid refreshment, I'm back to get a hat, Froggie.
The Frog: Indeed, these gifts will keep The Frog warm through many a winter's night.
Gaile Gray: Welcome to the district. :)
The Frog: The Frog would need to expend great amounts of time surveying his supplies.
The Frog: Suffice to say a goodly amount.
Gaile Gray: Oh, my pumpkin bread is baking, brb.
The Frog: That is most kind.
Gaile Gray: Back. What's up?
Gaile Gray: TY, Sivitrii.
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Montana Wolfie. :)
Gaile Gray: There was an angry mob?! I don't remember... OH! They are here!
Gaile Gray: We're an odd district. Very odd. ;)
Gaile Gray: I will pay Dwayna her due, too, of course. :)
Gaile Gray: TY so much, Segren. :)
Gaile Gray: Neb, Froggie is cagey. I'll be sure he gets some ale, don't worry. I'll share mine with him. :)
Gaile Gray: TY, Nisopia
Gaile Gray: I don't know, I'm torn!
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Neb. ;)
Gaile Gray: Darn Avatars! :)
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Trib, and Happy New Year. :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, fireworks early. Cause I'm like that. *evil*
Gaile Gray: :_
The Frog: Yes?
Gaile Gray: I don't know what's up, I am having lag too. :(
Gaile Gray: I am not doing the fireworks. So I don't know how to cancle them. :(
Gaile Gray: Guys, spread out. You do not need to stay on the rings now
Gaile Gray: Yes, let's all put mini away
Gaile Gray: TY, Neb. :)
Gaile Gray: I cannot turn these off, they are not mine. :(
Gaile Gray: Hi, I thought I got that ale for Froggie, no>?
Gaile Gray: The GM cannot spawn things. :)
Gaile Gray: It's, you know, sort of embarrassing, but sweets are expensive, so... ;)
The Frog: The Frog is taking notes.
The Frog: Most peculiar, this human activity.
The Frog: Thing? Surely you do not refer to the splendid species of amphibian as "thing?"
Gaile Gray: I will take that for Froggie, Neg, with thanks. Froggie has me do his shelving. :)
The Frog: The Frog is much relieved. Oversensitive he would not be, but yet it was worrisome.
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Trib, ever closer to the goal. :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, space problems! BRB
Gaile Gray: TY, Belorn. :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, nice, Venezuela! Marvelous!
Gaile Gray: TY so much, Jazora. I shall reserve the beverages for Froggie.
The Frog: *beams*
Gaile Gray: Oh Montana, you must keep that little guy. One of the best! Thank you so much, though!
The Frog: The Frog is most grateful for the gifts!
Gaile Gray: Ah, ok, Montana. :)
Gaile Gray: Thanks much. :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, Karl, you have done well!
Gaile Gray: Yes, I can make fireworks IF they will not lag out the town! :(
Gaile Gray: Let's see.
Gaile Gray: Gosh, Neb, thank you again!
Gaile Gray: Yes, let's conga! :)
Gaile Gray: TY, Youworst Nightmare. ;)
Gaile Gray: TY, Sivitrii, that's very kind.
Gaile Gray: OK, Conga!
Gaile Gray: Yes, I seldom forget a friend. :)
Gaile Gray: Ok, now, click me and we'll start, but let me charge up the fireworks one more time.
The Frog: Head this direction, if you would. The Frog enjoys a parade.
Gaile Gray: Heading towards town central (the tree)
Gaile Gray: Ok, I had to get myself situated. :)
Gaile Gray: Two hats. Grenth and Dwayna
Gaile Gray: Depends on what district you are.
Gaile Gray: Ok, pause for the view
Gaile Gray: I love Wintersday. :)
Gaile Gray: Yes, I remember the gifts, and no, I don't sell them or trade them away. :)
Gaile Gray: Neb, in fact, Froggie is not able to trade. I will relay his gifts, though, I promise!
Gaile Gray: Ok, hold on this is important.
Gaile Gray: You are saying some districts did not have an event???
Gaile Gray: Do you know any numbers??
Gaile Gray: Is that US 107? 109?
Gaile Gray: One monent.
Gaile Gray: Deutschland, report! :) Did you not have events?
Gaile Gray: I have a feeling I know what's happening.
Gaile Gray: If the district forms after the start time, the gods will not appear, as suggested here.
Gaile Gray: We have ferocious lag here, too. :(
Gaile Gray: I am sorry that a few of you don't like the masks. I disagree that they "fail." Many of us, including me, like them!
Gaile Gray: But I think that district 109 may have been formed AFTER the events started.
Gaile Gray: I understand, that's good feedback, Isis.
Gaile Gray: You are saying the district formed five minutes before the event start time??
Gaile Gray: I am sorry that you feel compelled to complain about the hats. Sorry that you don't like them. That's enough, now.
Gaile Gray: And you've said what you want to say, and you can stop, now.
Gaile Gray: Hey, does anyone here have the Dwayna hat? I'd love to see it.
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Gen Jack. :)
Gaile Gray: Oh, I love that!!!!
Gaile Gray: Do you know of St. Lucia, in Scandinavia?
Gaile Gray: The Dwayna hat is a bit like that. ;)
Gaile Gray: Yes, we had lag here, too. I will relay that to the team.
Gaile Gray: I hope to see you all tomorrow, I'm going to head to sleep soon.
Gaile Gray: Happy New Year!
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Holloween Man.
Gaile Gray: Thanks, Jin. :)
Gaile Gray: Take care, guys. See you soon!
