Any idea what's next?

[HSB]

I know the Highman games are going on currently, but has there been any talk of the next paid event? Is there going to be another CCF this year? Or anything on the docket before the next EG? Just curious if there's been any buzz / teases or not.

No CCF this year. And no auction this year, either.

Ha!

Well, that's doucheriffic. Loved me some CCF last year... and wish I didn't have to wait until October for the next event. Ah well.

I don't feel like going to find it, but one or more GMs did post on the officials that because last year was pretty heavy with big events (CCF, the EG auction), this year would be light on events, and they're trying to run things in cycles (event heavy one year, event light the next, etc).

I'm kinda disappointed, too, 'cause I missed CCF last year, but.. oh well. Maybe we'll see more dev stuff this year.

dev != ce.

So dev's plans are irrespective of CE's. While dev contributes heavy in an auction (coding and QC of those new high end items), one doesn't influence the other.

Without CCF or another events, I'm hoping we see some decent storylines that aren't armegeddon (lets face it, Solhaven and the Landing have been destroyed so often its not worth rebuilding them and really is no sense of something tragics happened as you know it will be rebuilt, will be no long term political ramifications therein.) Offing a major figure, the King of Vaalor who locks the city down in martial law for a year, a god's war were a god of your choice is permanently gone, and the clerics of that god need to venerate someone new for their powers, wrecking Solhaven entirely and turning into a high level hunting ground (and open Vornavis for supplies and services), that would be rockin' cool.

Other than that, I posted on the officials an idea for more merchants who dont just do fluff alters or lighten/deepening. Add enchants (up to 5 for under +30), 2-3 for 30-40, 1 over 40. Add weighing and padding (up to 5 for items over 10 (heavy) , 2-3 up to 15, 1-2 over 15), uncommon flares, common flares for armor accesssories, dig into the script library for script adding services, etc.

I'd love to see more merchanting services in general. It might be that it's just my bad luck, but it seems that outside of pay events, even the general Alter/Lighten/Deepen services are very few and far between... and it's those particular services that have me yearning for a pay event at present.
