    Yeah, it went the way we were hoping. She has said goodbye to her parents until she is after 18 (or they can prove to us they are clean and stable and that relationship can be reopened therapudicly).

    Now it is a long journey of waiting for them to decided any appeals and/or the judge closes the books completely and clears them for adoption.

    It is a lot of mixed emotions. I’m so happy to have her away from the confusion of visits that don’t go well. I’m so sad she can’t go back to healthy parents though. That is the purpose of foster care and it wasn’t achieved this time.

    @somasatori I totally agree with this. Each character in the roster could have a set of links to the important world lore that drives their character to help people find what they need to know.

    Looks like this has been done! It’s pretty helpful - there’s a nice in-web-site glossary now that lets you get immediate information on what certain things are.

    @Artemis Just DM an email to me and I will make an account w an invite link that goes to that email. It could be your email. Your cousins email. A temp email. I don’t care. You do need to be able to access it for the invite link and password resets.

    We had a run of bad actors so account creation is limited atm.

    @Artemis If they want an account, I just need an email. If they don’t, they are wise beyond measure.

    @somasatori You know, that’s fair. The tone of the question wasn’t great though, and that’s what I think I’m responding to.

    I find the setting and conflict of empire a bit nebulous and hard to grasp myself but I don’t need to be shitty about a new game and a widely played older game to say so. My friends seem to be grabbing it fine!

    @Tez Spoken on game:
    [Public] Ada: See someone was asking about AI use, to which the answer is it was used for a list of names, about six images, and as a programming aid. No writing at all.
    Albrecht has entered the game.

    @Artemis

    Do you know how much if any AI was used in the game? Rosters, theme, code, etc? I noticed there wasn’t an AI policy at all.

    I’m impressed at the roster selections for characters, and it looks like several of the Houses have some meaty problems set up for them right off the bat, including at least one House who has to deal with being the royal family in a region where the King is insane.

    Not all families have THAT level of excitement going on, so it feels like you can pick your level of conflict at least initially. The setting is interesting and each region has a different take on what nobility is and what the obligations of nobles are, providing a lot of opportunity to explore differences of ideology. The staff member I’ve interacted with has been pleasant and responsive.

    Downsides: the coding is still a bit of a work in progress, and it wouldn’t surprise me if early play involves bughunting and debugging. Doesn’t bother me too much, but if that’s something that will cause you anxiety, I’d definitely say give it a little time to shake the bugs out.
