ttk2's thinking corner

• First off lets talk Coal coast, I have been under the impression it was set to 14 (two weeks) for several months now, but upon actually digging into the config to take a look its still set at 5, I think we might have discussed the change and I forgot to implement or somthing of that nature. Coal cost discussions tend to drag out. I would like to move it to the value I thought it had (14) unless I mistaken.

• Next up is NetherFactories, current plan is to put them online next weekend, might be a little late as I will be getting back into town very late Halloween night after interviewing with Microsoft, I easily predict that we will need a good deal of balancing, but that can be delayed a bit, all we need for launch day is no pearls in the Nether.

• People are discussing combat or balance changes in light of the current HCF situation, I would like to direct people to my long standing and continuously more disturbing demand for somthing as simple as a humbug bow buff (tomorrow its going to have to be in some demonic language)

• EMP and artillery factories remain a very interesting idea, especially if we manage to duplicate the Bastion crafting difficulty, that sort of attention to detail is what we need in new mechanics if we want to actually make investment in the server matter for players.

• A reminder about alternate vault break strategies

• Last night our team won a pretty big football game, immediately after this someone runs into the lobby of the dorm shirtless wearing a confederate flag in the school colors as a cape, cheering loudly. This was the most "I live in the south" moment in my life so far.
