Shireroth

As some of you may have noticed, my activity has been tailing off lately due to various RL things converging on me at once (ain't that always the way?). To devote proper attention to my various predicaments, I shall be taking a Leave Of Absence from Shireroth of approximately one week. Until I retur...

Long live Kildare! Lived here all my life y'know...

Y'know I once thought a steward was like a drunkard, but with stew...

"Hrrrr lovely meaty chunks *hiccup* MORE!!! *burp*"

Actually I can feel a short story coming on.

Anyway... a happy LOA to His Imperial Niftiness, and may calamity spare Corey's caretakership of the Golden Mango throne

I bet it was nothing secret at all, just a torrent of obscene curses...

Indeed. You were easily my preferred choice and by the look of it, that of my fellow Brookshirians too.

Unfortunately, you'll get the 'premium' service of snake oil potion mixed with cheap whiskey.

This works. One of my comrades in Novaya Zemlya ran a pay-per-issue tabloid newspaper for several issues. I'd do it but I'm a busy man these days...

Is voting closed? If not, I add to Corey's majority with Brookshire's support (11445)

Meat for the grinder, dear Scott, meat for the grinder....

Herringbone Tweed

Unfortunately, it causes chronic indigestion if not eaten in moderation.

You might want to try the lush countryside of old Goldshire... maybe Ran or Elsenar? A little bit down south strikes me as even lusher, but Lunaris, Monty Crisco, and Alexandretta are all already taken. Or I guess you could do Crestfall Downs, that'd get you a nice continuum from plains in the sout...

Fontunately, a lack of basic anatomical knowledge means Corey does minimal harm to himself.

Yeah, I was all for adjusting the forum wordfilter so that ALL the i's made by everyone were dotless.

An Aye vote has been entered.

Brookshire AYE (739)

Anyway my fellow Brookshireans, your opinions on the revised version jut added to the Landsraad?

Culture can keep you going for a loooong time. Truth. If you have enough initiative and imagination, culture is all you need. But nobody else is going to start stuff for you, so it takes a lot of work to get it off the ground. And don't worry, the Barons will have something to do soon. I'm gonna ha...

Unfortunately, the idea of people being simple bastards is more harrowing than the idea of satanic evil.

Very well, but I should tell you now it's Erik and Mike you should be making your arguments to. In all honesty I couldn't give a flying f*ck how things turn out, so I'll let you duke it out with them at the Front Gate and I'll cast any vote according to where they both stand when the smoke has clear...

No, but now you mention it that's a damn fine idea

'Twas nothing established in decreed form... merely a few hints revealing Ardy's coveting of the Barony. With his departure I hope any Elwynnian desire to acquire the lands has been snuffed out

And why exactly has the new citizens' Erb been increased? Surely leaving the newly printed Erb out of their hands would inspire them to actually do some work to get it?

Death Wish

The new citizens' Erb would be decreased in real terms, as it's only a four-fold increase compared to the ten-fold increase in total Erb in the system. That said, however... I don't know why it was seen as necessary to increase new citizens' Erb at all. Especially since the newly-printed Erb is goin...
