13:10: [The Dojo] Chronita: Let's begin the assembly now, as always, with a /pray :) 13:10: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: (Hi all, will be on chat) /pray 13:10: [The Dojo] Chronita: Now for the mandatory “Rules of the Assembly” speech. . . ;) 13:10: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: hi Munkee! 13:10: [The Dojo] Chronita: I will be moderating this Assembly. This is not to prevent you from expressing yourself, on the contrary, but rather to try to keep it organized. Until I open a topic for discussion, comments in the org channel should be kept at a minimal. 13:11: [The Dojo] Chronita: If I open a discussion, you may freely contribute to the discussion (without standing up), until the discussion is closed. If I ask for any new topics and you have one you would like to raise, please stand and I will recognize you so you can state your topic, then we will have a discussion. 13:11: [The Dojo] Chronita: When discussing, pls respect the others, and stick to the topic currently being discussed. Applicants are requested to limit their posts, and cannot take part in votes. 13:11: [The Dojo] Chronita: If someone from outside the org disturbs our meeting here, the best policy is to just ignore him/her. A council member or myself can tell them the meeting is in progress and ask them to leave, otherwise we should limit our contact with them. In the past it has been proven time and time again that the “zen” approach is best :) 13:11: [The Dojo] Chronita: End of Speech :) 13:12: [The Dojo] Chronita: Ok, just a few items for today. 13:12: [The Dojo] Chronita: First let's congratulate Thaylia and Spipac2 again for becoming full members of the Gassho (Recruitment) House! :) 13:13: [The Dojo] Neurobatica: Yay!!! 13:13: [The Dojo] Thakilla5: Grats thay and spi! 13:13: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: Grats! 13:13: [The Dojo] Fotd: (Phreakstitch/Phunkphist) Wooh wooh wooh `cheers ala Arsenio style~ 13:13: [The Dojo] Xiahang: congratulations to you both 13:13: [The Dojo] Spipac2: ty 13:13: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: Congrats you two :) 13:13: [The Dojo] Opitist: Congratulations!!! 13:13: [The Dojo] Thaylia: thank you :-) 13:14: [The Dojo] Chronita: Now, on a less exciting note, I'd like to announce that Munkeezon is stepping down as a Council member :/ 13:14: [The Dojo] Tianwei: :( 13:14: [The Dojo] Thakilla5: :/ 13:14: [The Dojo] Opitist: :(( 13:14: [The Dojo] Thaylia: awww 13:14: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: :\ 13:14: [The Dojo] Opitist: aww 13:14: [The Dojo] Chronita: I'll let Munkee say a few words to that end, Munkeezon? 13:14: [The Dojo] Spipac2: sorry to hear that 13:15: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: Yes, continuing to be active in AO-related projects, but also lots of real life projects 13:15: [The Dojo] Neurobatica: Oh it's not bad news. Munkee has served Dojo on council for a long time now very well. 13:15: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: Since I am not able to devote as much active time in-game, and we have other incoming council, seems like a good time to step back to the honorary squad commander position for now. 13:15: [The Dojo] Spipac2: well dont munkeezon 13:15: [The Dojo] Spipac2: *done 13:16: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: I lost track but it seems like its over a year... 13:16: [The Dojo] Munkeezon: But maybe time flies.. anyway thanks :) 13:16: [The Dojo] Chronita: Yes Munkee is probably our longest tenured council member after Neuro here :) 13:17: [The Dojo] Xiahang: will miss your lovely face Munk :) But put your attention where it is needed most :) I think of you often 13:17: [The Dojo] Chronita: And there are always future appointment opportunities for her to rejoin when the time is right :) 13:18: [The Dojo] Chronita: Anyway, thanks for the year o' dedication Munkee :) 13:18: [The Dojo] Chronita: Ok, next I'd like to talk about the official party the ARKs are holding next Saturday. 13:19: [The Dojo] Chronita: It is basically right in the middle of our meeting times so we will not have an assembly next week. 13:19: [The Dojo] Chronita: Official parties are rare - there have been a few at Christmas and such, but never something planned like this, 13:20: [The Dojo] Chronita: So, I think it would be a lot of fun for everyone if they could attend.

13:35: [The Dojo] Drdemon: yes 13:37: [The Dojo] Drdemon: I was wondering what the need, and response, would be to organise a raid on ToTW's to get for higher lvls to get keys for IS 13:37: [The Dojo] Drdemon: something the lower lvls could do for the uper lvls! 13:37: [The Dojo] Chronita: :) 13:37: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: not many go to IS, not too much there, but it would help i'm sure =) 13:37: [The Dojo] Thakilla5: Yes very good idea, but IS is pretty empty nowadays 13:37: [The Dojo] Chronita: very true, it would be nice to have a cache of them for future use at the very least :) 13:38: [The Dojo] Xiahang: great time for me to go when it's thinned out :) 13:38: [The Dojo] Drdemon: is that because everyone got what they needed or because it was to full and always camped? 13:38: [The Dojo] Chronita: we might all get bored some day and decide to raid IS - you never know ;) 13:38: [The Dojo] Drdemon: cause if it was the later..now would be a good time i guess for the higher lvls 13:38: [The Dojo] Thaylia: if I remember right, it has a rush when it started 13:38: [The Dojo] Thakilla5: well I found IS full of nothing good, and not very well thought up 13:39: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: yep stuff in it is pretty much the same as ToTW, only with lvl 150 as requirement to wear it 13:39: [The Dojo] Fotd: (Ivilz) theres supposed to be a nice shottie there tho =) 13:39: [The Dojo] Xiahang: according to those who have been the new ma attack is not so hot 13:39: [The Dojo] Chronita: IS has a few nice things, but mainly its not that great, and it takes quite a bit of coordination to handle the hardest parts 13:39: [The Dojo] Opitist: sorry to say but i have to go 13:39: [The Dojo] Opitist: Bros b-day 13:39: [The Dojo] Cutephyter: ok, bye Opi 13:39: [The Dojo] Drdemon: Bye Opitist 13:40: [The Dojo] Opitist: bye all 13:40: [The Dojo] Thaylia: bye Opi :-) 13:40: [The Dojo] Fotd: (Ivilz) buh bye 13:40: [The Dojo] Spipac2: take care 13:40: [The Dojo] Opitist: bye everyone see you again soon! 13:40: [The Dojo] Xiahang: seeya opi :) 13:40: [The Dojo] Thaylia: I think Tubs mentioned a BwT with same ql would be better than that temple attack 13:40: [The Dojo] Drdemon: Well I might as well start trying too farm the robes and they if anyone needs a key they know where to come i guess! 13:40: [The Dojo] Chronita: there is also the issue of getting a permenant key to enter the final level, and I'm sure there are many like me who have helped several ppl get one, yet still do not have it themselves ;) 13:41: [The Dojo] Thakilla5: :/ I never bothered, only went in once, and hated it insantaneously 13:41: [The Dojo] Chronita: also anyone with a key can go into IS as well and farm robes that drop in there as well 13:41: [The Dojo] Fotd: (Ivilz) thats what every1 says as soon as they find out they need to play as a team =) 13:42: [The Dojo] Chronita: nice idea regardless :) 13:42: [The Dojo] Fotd: (Phreakstitch/Phunkphist) i know for a fact i will be wanting the doc book from there. 13:42: [The Dojo] Chronita: anyone else with a topic for today?
