[Ender]

Sorry for being not around the past two days. Yesterday was payroll reconciliation, and we were busy. Didn't get home till about 230am.

Today was month end inventory, so I've been busy all day as well.

Dayflip still on schedule

[Ender]

Day 8 is live!

[Ender]

I said this on discord, but I will say it here.

No one is holding a gun to anyone's head and forcing anyone to play a game.

If you're having an issue with the game, tell me, we have personal folders for that kind of thing.

Going to another public channel and saying the game is 'troublesome' without having even spoken to me, or trying to communicate is an issue. It's hurtful, when I am giving the free time I have after my job, and my responsibilities and time needed with my family, to see that.

Shiba Haru and Shiba Kuroneko have both been removed from the game.

I'm not bothered by people dropping/quitting. It's when it's talking badly about the game, that you're still playing in without saying anything to me. It's disrespectful.

I wouldn't tolerate it at a real table, and I won't tolerate it here.

It's often worse to keep playing a game that you aren't enjoying because you 'aren't a quitter', than to just drop. If the game isn't for you, it's not for you, and that's okay!

Just needed to have that said publicly, here.

Cheers

[Ender]

Day 9 is live!

The Feast of Thanksgiving will go up after I wake up in the morning.

If you are in the Iai tournament and did not spend your XP prior to D10, you cannot spend it and have it take effect now.

I will be posting the thread for the Iai Final match in about 12 hours. There is a deliberate gap in the Late Afternoon to allow the finalists a moment to breathe/get lunch.

Once the Final Thread goes up, no passions may be indulged in, no other healing may take place.

[Ender]

Presentation of Topaz Prizes will precede the naming ceremony on D11.

[Ender]

Day 11 will be a chill day. No dice rolling.

Awards Presentation and Naming Ceremony will be Late Afternoon

[Ender]

Dayflip delayed till the morning. Needed the time after work with the fam to recharge a bit.

[Ender]

Day 11 is live. Thank you all for playing, and giving the fifth edition of the Legend of the Five Rings roleplaying game a shot. I know it's got some bugs, but we'll find a way to make it all work. I've enjoyed reading all of your threads.

I have messaged various people with needs for threads on this day, but take D11 to say goodbye to all your new friends, and prepare for the next journey in this timeline of Rokugan

The Broken Chrysanthemum.

I'll be starting a Q and A forum soon, and going through this at a little more relaxed pace.

Goals:

As Topaz Participants, you all represent the best and brighest of this generation of Samurai. Over the next several months, you will begin your assignements with your Lords, as well as possible duties.
