Major thanks to all those involved with the live games! I always have so much fun with them no matter how I fare with them. It's also awesome to see what other players come up with! Just wanted to hand out some flowers for these events. Thanks!

HUGE thanks to those behind the storyline and side-quest at EG this year. It's been hard for me to feel involved in any RP in the past because of scheduling (time zones being what they are ) but this has been amazing and I am loving that Roh can play her part. Thank you! ❤️

Big thank you to Kaonashi for digging all the way down and probably finding a golem over my charm contraption "issue". I appreciate you!

AMAZING Kudos to the person behind Jehckle -- I truly ran in to the room just looking to get a raffle, I am the last person picked after what I think is HOURS AND HOURS that theyve been working -- I am halfway ready with a design on a ring, and they come back over the top with a truly stunning amazing show desc that was not at all expected!!!!

There aren't enough words to express my gratitude and appreciation for @wraith hazel who tracked down and very kindly replaced some items for me today - items I lost due to my own stupidity.

Thank you also to @untold sparrow and @fluid gyro who offered to lend me replacements should I have needed them for the costume contest. Much love ❤️

A huge thank you to Indres for an alteration that was even more amazing than I expected and left my jaw on the floor. I was so surprised I forgot to say thank you in the moment. Sorry about that! 😅 grey_heart

Indres is amazing for that! And so is Igges. Lots of incredible GM talent around, but they always come through, and always so quick with a design. 🤩

I will become less quick with designs as the week wears on. 😆

And the sleep deprivation sets in.

By Wednesday if you ask for a design, you'll probably get "a creatively designed gown of some dark and edgy color"

Shout out to Jehckle.

When rune tattoos came out, I chose an OTS tattoo just to stick spells on it. I've hated the look of it ever since. I had a general theme of an idea for a replacement tattoo. Jehckle came up with something beautiful fitting what I had envisioned.

Thanks to those who waited patiently and respectfully while she was allowed to work her magic today.

A big thanks for having the Culinary Challenge team captains chosen by raffle.... and to my team's captain for picking me for her team... and my wonderful teammates who gave me an amazing 24 hours of creative madness... and the judges who had the hard task of watching all the presentations... and everyone who made last night's contest worth missing GHOUL and merchants for.
That's an experience I'm never going to forget, and I have an amazing tea set to help remind me of it forever.

I want to thank the community writ large for coming together for a crowdfunding exercise to get a near and dear to many of us player a teadragon, which they had been wanting since their inception.

Ok Kudos so far!

Thandiwe - for the games you've been playing, I know they're so much work and buggy cases are buggy, but you've brought some fun RP to EG and I appreciate getting to watch all of it.

Haliste - For listening to feedback about the Undergrowth and incorporating it in realtime. It's a wonderful, whimsical little world of fun and I can't wait to spend more time in there.

Elysani and Casil - You're machines, glorious barbie-fueled-praise-the-sun-wondermakers. Thank you!

Xynwen - Teadragons and working with us to make them our own. So much appreciation!

Massive thanks to ALL the GMs involved with Merchant Week in some way, from doing the actual merchanting sessions to being background QC to covering general ASSISTS.

Special shout-out to @narrow quest for the Culinary challenges and to my teammates creating the tea set for the experience of a lifetime. I made a comparison to Bardfest, and that rush of "OMG I have to do Big Creativity under Big Time Crunch" that produced something so beautiful I want to look at it constantly... That was something I didn't know I'd been missing until I had it. And I loved being on the judging side for the Diner's Boards - the results from 12 hours (or less!) were truly amazing and shows that there are some super creative brains out there.
(Plus, now I know of more storytellers hiding in plain sight out there. And can gently hound you to be in the Carnivale Concert next summer.)

Finally, my Merchant Week experience would have been VERY DIFFERENT without our BlobGlomp. There's no way I can hope to tag everyone who was part of it at some time, but I'm sure you all know who you are. Having people to chat with while waiting in line, and who were there to lift spirits when a spinner passed you over AGAIN and then cheer for you when the spinner remembered you do exist, and toss around ideas... and to just plain get silly with when your brain started going to mush (and learning some very odd things about fellow players - You know who you are, Hot Soda Man). I've been fortunate enough to be folded into the Blob many times over in the past, but this past week reached a wonderful new level.

As I'm foraging up things ponies may like to eat... I wanna comment on this because it's like.. amazing and I think you all need to know how awesome it is. Every area in Naidem has a different variety of ||coneflower||. All of them are gorgeous.. All of them are haunted. But I've gone into many different areas and each one has a different variety, different colors. There's even different colors/varieties spread throughout the same area. It's kinda intricate and someone obviously worked hard coding it. As a fellow programmer.. I see you. Good job you.. whoever you are.

what happens when you give control to the merchant? MAGIC
a polychromatic vaalorn haubergeon.

Fine links of vaalorn have been woven together to create the armor.  The exact hue of the metal changes from moment to moment as light moves across it, reflecting varying colors of the entire spectrum depending on the angle of view.   The supple chain weave gives way to solid collar upon which musical notes have been inlaid with vaalin.  You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.```

Kudos to Cheeri and all the Holiday elves this time of year! The spirit of giving is contagious and everyone I've talked to has been effected by it in all the little things all of you guys do. I kept hearing about people that are actively hiding presents, giving away thrakmas gems, setting up impromptu parties/dinners with giftbags, opening up their darkboxes with presents inside. I love how giving snowballs.. And honestly it's these little things, these tiny moments that make Elanthia feel almost real and I treasure it. Watching someone find something they didn't expect and get excited about it.. watching someone go out of their way just to make someone else smile. It's these moments that I fall even more in love with this game. Happy holidays ❤️

Cocking your head to one side, you hold out your ghezyte warlance and whistle a set of three notes in a descending scale.
Threads of misty green light pulse over the surface of the ghezyte warlance in time to the notes, coalescing into the ethereal form of an antlered stag on the floor at your feet.  Pawing at the ground with a hoof in agitation, an antlered ethereal stag shakes its head at you, giving an angry bellow.  In a burst of misty green motes, it dissolves back into the ghezyte warlance.

Thanks to everyone for a great DR. I think the annex was a great addition and made things a lot easier on my end - I hope the same is true for GMs. Mania was awesome - here's to more of those. The merchant offerings were cool. I missed the RP event but I heard it was fun. Hats off all around 🙂

I want to take a moment and thank GM Kaonashi. Every time he's worked on a referral of mine he's been extremely thorough, thoughtful and sympathetic to the situation. Taking the time to answer questions and discuss one of my (many) strange and oftentimes ridiculous issues with other GMs to ensure I have a clear understanding of how to proceed, it means a lot and I'm very grateful! Thank you so much! ❤️

5/5 Wyrm-Slaying Stars!
Jaired the Wyrm Hunter EXCEEDED Expectations!
I recently hired asked Jaired nicely for assistance slaying the wyrm in the Hinterwilds, and I must say, the man is a PROFESSIONAL.
Communication: 5/5 - Jaired responded promptly to my initial message and kept me informed throughout the entire process. Even when I was dead.
Wyrm-Slaying Skills: 5/5 - This guy knows his stuff! Jaired took down the beast with ease, minimizing damage to our lives egos overall experience with the wyrm hunt.
Equipment: 5/5 - Truly impressive. I can't decide if I like Cat or the sweater more. Probably Cat, he is a sweet boy.
Overall Experience: 5/5 - Jaired is courteous, efficient, and gets the job done! If you have a wyrm problem, look no further!
Would I recommend Jaired to a friend? ABSOLUTELY!
Would I hire ask Jaired for a hard carry again? IN A HEARTBEAT!

Maybe people know about this (and those dramatic drapery cloaks are just too good at DR) or maybe it's a little known secret but I am having a lot of fun between the "Shears Leatherworks" and "And Sew It Goes" designing cloaks for my little gang. My sausage maker is getting a whole new wardrobe themed around food crafting. There's a whole assortment of options between and playing off each of the two shops. This is my second visit to this fest so I am starting to figure things out.

Hi, they're not new... they're actually very old! I'm actually doing a sweep right now of older items that never made it to the wiki in their "full" capacity, but that's also why the official documentation header was updated to state that it's a guide that was published on the officials and may be (read: likely is) out of date with the current state of the game. Consider this just... records keeping.

This kudos is for GM Xeraphina, who has a deep and broad knowledge of GSIV and shares it a hands-on manner with the community in so many different areas. She's always stepping up to play air traffic controller to direct issues to the right channel, and one has the feeling that she's often monitoring to ensure things stay on track. Rules are part of what keeps a game fun, and her knowledge of them, and willingness to share with the player base, are part of what makes Gemstone continue to feel challenging, engaging, and as a result, fun: no rules, no game. I know that it can be difficult to be "the enforcer" because of the complex feelings and reactions it can elicit in others, but her willingness to fulfill this very difficult role comes from a place of love for the game and good will towards the players, and I sincerely appreciate that about her. Thanks for all that you do!

You said this so much better than I possibly could. Watching everyone show up last night to support the Platinum folks meant so much, to them... to me. It reminded me how much this community cares and every one of you is so awesome.

We're tossing around ideas about expanding this, making it a series of town-based events (to cut down on scroll) and allow CHEs/MHOs to really talk about what they do and who they are... see if we can get more people interested in joining up.

So long story short, I have some thank yous for folks who helped out.

Also massive kudos to Alirasawaen (I hope my memory spelled that right) for the marathon basket-weaving and weavable altering and basket tweaking session yesterday afternoon.

HUGE shout-out to the GMs who have been putting up festival shop inventories on the wiki before the festivals start - this has been an awesome change over the years. It's super helpful for the pay events when I have to budget RL money, but even for the silvers shops, this is great and creates a whole new level of excitement. (And eases a lot of anxiety. I like lower anxiety levels.)

I do not miss the days AT ALL when it was up to a player to run through the shops and pull inventories and prices and post them somewhere, and we didn't even know what half the things did until people were brave enough to buy them and test them out.

And even though I haven't won any yet, at least I could have the chance.

Kudos to whoever was handling Sadie scrolls this week! Used my Premium points to add crit weighting to an item for someone and it was done within 24 hours! My mind, Their Mind, Everyone's mind was blown 🙂

Kudos and Thank you!

I've been pretty against the gemstone quest. Having completed it, nothing has changed in my opinion, in fact it might even be worse than I imagined.

However, I have to give a shout out to @small merlin @smoky locust @woeful otter @viral latch and @fathom shadow for the hand holding to get me through it.

Congratulation to Gemstone IV on 35 years!

But on a side note... Gemstone has been around for longer than 35 years so curious what the starting point for the 35 years is... when the game converted to Gemstone IV?

woven cliff
#

2/1/1990 the official release date. Before that was beta testing

spiral ibex
#

I was playing Gemstone in 1989 on Genie so.... release for Gemstone IV?

woven cliff
#

4 was 2003 with web move.

Let me find the link, or Jara should know

#

Originally started 86 in Whatley house, public release in 88 iirc from radio interview I posted a year back or so.

#

GemStone was first demonstrated to GEnie in 1987 before Simutronics was officially incorporated. It was only used as a demonstration model and was never available to the general subscribers. GemStone ][ was released in April 1988 to GEnie customers. However, GemStone ][ was very short-lived, and GemStone III went into open beta testing in December 1989, officially launching on February 1, 1990.

Official wikipedia info

Gemstone II was what I played.

#

Okay. So they are counting from Gemstone III launch (ish) it sounds like! (was noticing the recent GS 35 logo on Discord which is what got me to wondering how they were doing their math on this.)

boreal shore
#

Yeah GSIII is our official start date. It's tough to include the earlier bits as a lot changed. GSIII should have just continued to be the name, but that's my opinion

ember iris
#

GemStone III is the game we would recognize now, with the Landing and its surrounding environs. GemStone ][ was in a place called Squire's Bluff.

So, I need to do some major kudos here for all the help with getting Fizwixit's Wonderful Widget out there.

@boreal shore and @karmic bluff for amazingly quick QC both on the initial submissions and all my additions as I added a few features and all the room themes. Isten's patience and turnaround ability is awe-inspiring. @warm jungle as well for quick QC on the 'physical' aspects of this vault item and for going above and beyond while doing that and finding script errors the rest of us missed!

@restive vale , @modern smelt , @final nacelle , @narrow quest , and @steady sphinx for being beyond crazy amazing with the creation of room themes. I still have about a dozen to add; they are writing them quicker than I can format them for the script!

Would like to thank Siebarra today for her altering work. After not attending any merchant events in 30 years (on and off) due to nerves I decided to attend and see if she would be able to make something for me. Came out with two great alters that came even better then I expected. ```
a sapphire-set black felt pack

Stitched from a deep, velvety black cloth, the pack is adorned with a series of faceted wyrm's heart sapphires across its surface. Although each sapphire is vivid in hue, the variation in color, size, and cut gives a significant texture to the pack, which appears as if it has a constellation of lustrous, bright blue stars across its surface. These sapphires carry up to the pack's opening, where they are joined by deep crimson rubies and form a perfect gemstone circle topping the pack.```

an emerald-eyed bright orange backpack

Dyed a bright, pumpkin orange, the backpack resembles a large, back-worn pumpkin.  Radiant, gold-green auroral emeralds are set as the backpack's eyes, attached to flaps so that, as the backpack shifts, it looks as if its eyes are glancing about.  The mouth is made from leather stitchwork across the backpack's base and is set in a wide, upturned grin, with bits of cream-hued ivory as inset teeth.  The backpack's leather is worn but well-maintained, shown through careful repair work and the detail in the backpack's pumpkin face.```

And it's always great to see Fenkleth and Jehckle around.

Also a big shout-out to Seynne for the culinary challenges! I have another custom diner's board I can't wait to use that came about through an incredibly memorable experience, and being flexible about the basketifier challenge so participants and judges wouldn't miss merchant-chasing time is greatly appreciated. For those of you who wanted to participate in these contests but didn't get picked this year, definitely try again next year! And to all of you scared to try to participate, don't be! It's a great way to strengthen and form friendships and really push the creative muscle, and if you get the right group, SOMEONE will step up to help with the presenting part; plus, everyone is super supportive heartpurple

Maylans are a sea creature with the head of a fish and the body of a humanoid, except with peglegs swapped out for real legs. They can't swim very well, but that's okay because they're all pretty lazy and don't really want to.

I'm a liiittle ™ late but...

Kudos to the team who worked on the Festival of the White Star! Lots of thought and effort clearly went toward the descriptions of the area, and the portrayals of the Brughan & Mhoragian cultures. One Truefolk (and perhaps others) even found home! It's refreshing to see background options outside of Icemule fleshed out so convincingly.

Also, LOL at "fat-bread" tarts
Also, those blankets are 🔥
Also, FINALLY halfling combs!
...Ok, I'll stop now!

  1. Happy Merry Whatever Brings You Joy This Time of Year & Merry X-Mas Eve to those staring into the void of holiday cheer tonight for that.

  2. Kudos and Thank You to all you GMs and GHs who somehow manage your own RL gatherings, traditions, families and even other jobs and still come here to bring some semblance of fun and joy during the holiday season (and what would be a break to so many others) to all of us here in Elanthia.

Many thanks to all the QCers who have been so amazing at getting scripts and shops and everything out of QC during the holidays. The Driftglass Fayre is here because of you! Please give yourselves extra pie and holiday meal leftovers. You've all earned it. <3 <3 <3

I want to give a lot of love to all the GMs over the past few years who have worked on all our crafty and create-y goodies and systems. This holiday season I've received items made through knitting, the cooking system, the portable alcohol still and bottletraption, the cheese wheel, frosting tubes/tips, the papermaker, the jewelry smelter, the jewelry box... I feel like I'm forgetting something... And I've made gifts with the stovetop oven, jammy juicer, and the weaving system.... and with that made use of the baker's rack, vasculums, and gem bin, and the basketifier to help store food/drink I constantly use for flavoring. And my dye-n-ator has allowed me to stockpile multiple dyes to further personalize items. And Bugs On Parade/Life Aquatic/Jeepers Peepers birds, plus the flower press and hole punch. And now the spider apothecary boxes for even more customizing.

Yup, it's a lot. And it totally amazes me and makes me so happy.

I just want to say Happy New Years to everyone and offer an affectionate THANK YOU to all the GMs who make our little Elanthian world special. Thank you for creating such fun things for us to play with! Thank you for suffering long hours of merchant work and even thank you to the QCers (even tho you drive us crazy sometimes lol)! Thank you for all you do for the game but moreso, for the little things that put smiles on our faces. Sometimes the real world can be stressful and escaping now and then into our game world is just plain fun. Well most times when we aren't arguing over why you did THAT LOL. But know that this little Sylvan is very grateful -even if I get mad once in a blue moon (ONCE in a BLUE moon - remember that lol). And I have a feeling so are many others who populate Elanthia. My wish for all of you is happiness, safety, health and prosperity too! As I tend to do.. offering a big HUG to you all!.

I had every intention of writing individual thank you letters but as time goes by and my game time remains limited, I’ve realised that it is unlikely to happen in a timely fashion. I would therefore like to thank each and every crafter who sent me a gift box/parcel. I have enjoyed opening them all and being amazed by the creativity.

Thank you also to the GMs who created the tools to make them possible.

I am looking forward to hiding Rohese away in 2026 to eat all the goodies and play with all the toys.

Kudos to the way that the GM team is handling the early feedback of the new exp and loot system. You’re responding with understanding and trying to find solutions against an onslaught of feedback. From the quick fixes on gem issues, to taking feedback about how the lower loot cap affects other items, and the endless stream of feedback on resources. Well done.

I have no idea who this kudos should go to, but I've been noticing that some of my veola/CC/DTHs that have pluralized versions of things (like bugs!) update to the correct pluralization of things (i.e <adjs> will be ladybugs or butterflies where necessary.)

I can't even imagine the work that goes into handling all of that, but it really helps not having to design around it.

So thank you, invisible pluralizing fairy, you are amazing. ❤️

Also @random current for the update to the Fash'lo'nae's Tutelage disc, this is a great update that solves the timing issue of renewing.
