Subject: Acka: Map Shard

Alfvaen just informed me privately that he was not actually a custodian of
Treasure 121 as he'd previously indicated he was.

I believe this means that the specification of the play of the OC Map
shard (since I was required to specify a player who was a custodian of the
treasure) did not in fact occur.

Any other opinions on this?

While I know Weis has something up his sleeve, I'll ack this name change
anyway.

(mainly because I don't believe what he thinks will work will actually
work, and I wanna laugh at him for being silly :)

I also don't believe he has the A$25 to affect the change, but he might
because of fortnightly dividends (I didn't check since my net to K 2's
pages is being horridly slow)

The name change will be reflected in my pages shortly.

Subject: Acka: Runemaker page

I have the new runemaker page up at

   http://www.nausicaa.net/~jtraub/acka/runemaker.html

I used K 2's page as the 'authority' for who had what cards.
I also marked the map shard which I discussed earlier as being possibly
there.

You will note that since K2 tracks who owns which cards, all that this
page tracks is how many of each card exists and the total number of cards
in existance.   Unless people really see a need to double harf who owns
which cards, I will probably not change this :)

I'm also declaring that an Otzma Day will occur on Tuesday the 29th of
September and will last for 1 day (so that the cards will be generated on
the 30th).   As of right now the LSAP is 15, but if this changes between
now and the 29th, I'll consider adjusting the number of cards I'm planning
on creating accordingly.

Please note that if I create the full 15 cards that I currently can, then
we will be VERY close to the 100 card total limit (just as a word of
warning to all of us SBoC owners out there :)

Well, since there is a prop out there to name you to that same name, it
could/would cause confusion between you.   And I don't need to have any
specific reason any longer.  And the name was too long to begin with so
nyah! :)  (seriously though, I gave a reason because I don't like being
arbitrary, but I definately considered it to be attempting to usurp the
(possible) name of an entity which might soon be rule defined.

Since this apparently failed:
I create a trinket, value 5 A$, with the quoted name "Gretchold the Evil Math
Troll".

This has the description:
E lives under the bridge! E is, however, correct about the radians thing. E is
also green.

I bury Gretchold the Evil Math Troll as a treasure, with the following map:
This will be found by the first player to become an Evil Math Troll in a way
that is defined by the rules.

I go to the Library.  I believe that's a quick trip, as I think I was
already there.  All these songs are confusing me.  I walk up to the
ASS and play "Could've Been James Dean" by Evan and Jaron (from the
albumn "We've Never Heard Of You Either").  I listen, transfixed by
the strange music never before heard by man or beast.  (At least not
by any man or beast I know.)  I walk away singing bits and pieces of
the lyrics under my breath:

"... I'm stopping in
for a hot cup of coffee
with an old bum who says
he could've been James Dean
now the chief of police
has asked him to leave
I say no, no, no
this man's with me
he makes me laugh
he makes me smile..."

3. A Player uses an Otzma Card by notifying the appropriate Officer that e
is using an Otzma Card, and which Card e is using, depending on the
type of Card

This text, from Rule 1240.1, makes no mention of requiring the player to
satisfy the conditions of any other rules regarding information supplied
with the card play.  You said you were playing a Map Shard.  You reported
this to the appropriate Officer.  The fact that your attempt to specify a
Treasure and Map Custodian did not match the conditions set down in the
definition of the card is irrelevant - you used the card.  Once the card
is used, it is destroyed.

Fair Enough.. I was was just thinking it might have failed under the
improper specification as that action (of playing the card) ws not
correctly specified.  I'm not stressing about it one way or another, but
was asking for other opinions.  Your answer makes sense, and that's how
I'll harf it :)

I'm reasonably certain that that stance has been taken before now,
although I think both interpretations have been harfed as correct at
various times.  Annoying, but that's how it is.

Scary, isn't it?  My audio memory is amazing.  And I was listening to
another song while doing that, too.

Anyway, now that the Tornado is over, I leave my home and go back to
the Library.  I play(on the ASS, as the unaccompanied verb "play" will
mean in the rest of this message), in quick succession, "American Pie"
by Don MacLean ("The jester sang for the king and queen in a coat he'd
borrowed from James Dean"), "Jack & Diane" by John Cougar(something
about Jack doing "his best James Dean"), and finally "Rock On" by David
Essex("See her shake on the movie screen...Jimmy Dean(James Dean)").

I'm bored with that, though.  I'll start another one and see if anyone
can supply more:

I now play "Family Snapshot" by Peter Gabriel.

Just in case, this works and I can prevent myself from being munged as
Alfvaen redoes the tornado,

I go to the Ackanomic Afterlife which is a common location and in fact
Sheltered.
