Just saw that the beta testing ended last week. Some hope of a December or early 2013 release date! No details I could immediately find though. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 13:39, 18 November 2012 (EST)
Nice! Maybe we could start an online game! (Or maybe that's a pipe dream...) Also, how terrible is it that I looked for a 'Like' button on that post?

An online game would be solid, but it might be a pipe dream... And yes it is absolutely terrible that you looked for a 'Like' button on that post. (I'll just go on pretending I've never done that before...) --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 22:20, 19 November 2012 (EST)
Looks like a playable product has been released. Even if it is a beginners boxed set. A quick look at the forums tells me a true core book is expected in the spring.

Edge of the Empire has arrived, haven't opened it yet.
<br>On the topic of RP this weekend, I guess I'm going to the Columbus beer fest thing on Saturday night but what about Friday or Sunday? [[User:Kirkland|Kirkland]] 09:41, 9 January 2013 (EST)
==Grass Spiders on You==
We're back.
Well done sir. Looking forward to it and hope to find time to post some stuff of my own this week. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 19:05, 25 November 2012 (EST)
I was refamiliarizing myself with The Grass Spiders and had the thought that it's too bad we done have a commissioned picture of The Circle with No Name. Would anyone be interested in splitting the cost of a commission? Assuming we can find a good artist for a reasonable price. (Group Christmas Present?) --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 23:06, 26 November 2012 (EST)
A thousand times yes.
[[User:Olaf|Dan]] 23:25, 26 November 2012 (EST)
I'm in! [[User:Kirkland|Kirkland]] 09:55, 27 November 2012 (EST)
Gah, I meant to post today, but Bears losses tend to lead to excessive drinking in my social circle... >_<. So, today was sort of wasted (hah! Double meaning!) Tomorrow. Tomorrow.

I posted a really good [[Media:Map of Nexus.jpg|Map of Nexus]], but it's kind of huge. So my bad on that, probably should have resized before uploading... Anyway it's in the Exalted Resources Page. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 18:53, 7 December 2012 (EST)

==Abyssal Storyline==
===Direction===
What sort of SL do we want?
* More in Creation or The Underworld?
* Heavy in Combat? Politics? Spying? Occult? Religion?
* Do we want characters who are well supported by their Deathlord? On their own? Rogue? Watched closely?
===Location===
Mostly if in Creation, but also if in Underworld is there a locale we prefer?
* North? South? East? West?
* Stygia? Labyrinth? Other?
===Deathlord===
* Eye and Seven Despairs - Might be my favorite for an existing Deathlord, a bit outside the box as normal with some interesting potential.
* Walker in Darkness -
* First and Forsaken Lion -
* Sijian - There is a passage in the Walker in Darkness section suggesting Walker may have given Sijian one or several Monstrances which would allow them to have abyssals possibly. Its very not clearly defined, but it could be interesting.
* Create our own Deathlord - An endless amount of possibility here that I think would be intriquing and fun. Perfectly willing to help create the deathlord and his/her Empire.
Initial ideas: It sounded to me that we were leaning towards making our own deathlord and playing in the East. I have some ideas based on those assumptions. You would be serving the 13th Deathlord. She was a night caste in the First Age. She served in a secret police role. She was mad well before the Usurpation. By the time the Solars were overthrown, she had secretly started hunting solars, gods, and other powerful essence users for sport. She used the armor of the unseen assassin to avoid detection in her activities, which allowed her to avoid death for much longer than most Solars. She may have never been caught if she had been able to resist the temption to continue hunting powerful individuals. When she died, she couldnt accept the Neverborn's offer fast enough. She raged against those that had turned on her. The promise of revenge on her betrayers and the ability to hunt everything into extinction was more than she could ever hope for.
Unlike the other deathlords, she does not have plans for the direct destruction of creation. She instead works to remove obstacles from the other Deathlords' paths. She also works to police the Underworld. She has no desire to rule when the rest of creation crashed into the Underworld. Instead, she waits for the oppurtunity to hunt the other Deathlords and any remaining exalts, gods, elementals, yozi, primordials, and ghosts. Then, when there is nothing left to hunt, she will fade into Oblivion, at peace at last.
The deathlords primary manse would be in the east. The manse would not be in a shadowland, yet. The first story would either center around Chanta or Mt Megalopoulos (however you spell it), in Creation. I would guess 75% in creation and 25% in the underworld. How you accomplish your goals will mostly be determined by the kinds of characters you make. If we went with this, the only thing really left to decide is whether you are loyal, want to escape your deathlords control, or have the characters split in that regard. Obviously all three will have very different types of stories.

==Linux v. Windows==
I had to tell someone. I figured Kirk would appreciate this. Bluetooth quit working spontaneously on my Windows install, and I had been thinking of installing Linux on my work laptop for awhile (I was sick of X11 tunneling with PuTTY in Windows), so I decided to install it. I was feeling a little bit rusty on my *nix skills, so to get back in the game, I installed ArchLinux (I thought about installing FreeBSD, but that's a bridge too far), a notoriously bitchy distro that makes you do everything from the ground up.
Bluetooth worked ''out of the box''. On a distro that prides itself on installing essentially nothing out of the box. I was slack-jawed.
Just heard about this really cool sounding RPG on Slashdot/RPG.net. Its based on D20 but seems to have changed up quite a bit of stuff, RPG.net gives it a glowing review. [http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/15/15453.phtml]
Downloading the pdf is free (Pay whatever you like) and they are donating all proceeds to charity which is bonus. I downloaded the pdf and assuming it's not crap will probably give a bit of a donation.

EX3
The EX3 Devs sent out a low-res version of the final map, unfortunately it's a little too low-res to see too many details.

Database Backup
I backed up Seventh Legion today. Download it just so we have copies on as many hard drives as possible.
It really is amazing and I'm pretty glad it's lasted as long as it has and generated so much content. I would say the sitting here and clicking random page has gone from something I enjoy to being a full fledged hobby of mine. Also, this is a little late but did you guys realize that March 25th, 2012 was the 5th anniversary of this site being live?
Some pretty awesome stats to remind you how sweet this site is and how often we use it:
575,000 Total Page Views
115,000 per year
9,500 per month
2,200 per week
375 page views per day!
We have 5 pages with over 10,000 views individually!
10,000 Page Edits
2,000 edits per year
165 edits per month
35 edits per week
5 edits per day!
Over 500 content pages
100 per year
8 per month
Pretty awesome and continuing to grow as always. Keep up the good work gentlemen.
