  1. Logging started 2021-12-08
  2. [17:53:43] <Belisama> Okay, gents, looks like everyone's in local so we can chat now about this highway issue.
  3. [17:54:35] <Belisama> Please each of you give me an aye, so I know that we're all here and no inadvertent afks have popped up
  4. [17:54:42] <Pruce> here
  5. [17:54:52] <Gumbo> o/
  6. [17:55:04] <Belisama> Excellent. Okay. So, I've gotten to talk to both parties involved now.
  7. [17:55:12] <Belisama> and I think I have an understanding of what went on.
  8. [17:55:33] <Belisama> First, Gumbo, as to the catseyes and waystone that were removed. Pruce will reimburse you those.
  9. [17:55:49] <Pruce> Yes
  10. [17:56:13] <Belisama> Second, let us talk about this project. As I understand, an attempt at communication happened previously where both parties discussed the proposed project, but a mutually agreeable solution was not
  11. [17:56:15] <Belisama> found.
  12. [17:56:21] <Belisama> We all agree this to be true?
  13. [17:56:32] <Pruce> I did try
  14. [17:57:12] <Gumbo> we had a chat
  15. [17:57:19] <Pruce> Twice
  16. [17:57:29] <Gumbo> once
  17. [17:57:29] <Belisama> Okay. So, we're all on the same page right now.
  18. [17:57:34] <Belisama> Minus that
  19. [17:57:41] <Belisama> But, that is irrelevant at the moment.
  20. [17:58:04] <Pruce> Once in local, once via PM
  21. [17:58:10] <Belisama> As I understand it, Gumbo, you want to go through that valley in a relatively straight line to the east, up the hill, to the area you showed me before and remind me again what deed you're attempting
  22. [17:58:12] <Belisama> to connect to?
  23. [17:58:47] <Gumbo> yes that is my proposed route.... deed I was going to is named Nightmare
  24. [17:59:05] <Pruce> Nightmare is at the top of this hill
  25. [17:59:18] <Pruce> where the collosus is
  26. [17:59:25] <Belisama> Okay.
  27. [17:59:38] <Belisama> Now, as I understand, several alternatives were offered.
  28. [17:59:47] <Belisama> I'd like us to work something out here, gents.
  29. [17:59:53] <Belisama> This is going to go one of two ways.
  30. [18:00:01] <Pruce> I only got through the first when he stopped responding
  31. [18:00:06] <Belisama> Either a) we all stand here together and find a solution that we can all live with
  32. [18:00:16] <Belisama> or b) I'm going to come up with a solution and you're both going to live with it
  33. [18:00:29] <Belisama> I'd like to go with plan A.
  34. [18:00:33] <Belisama> I'll live with plan B
  35. [18:02:13] <Belisama> So, shall we commence with some planning for plan A? Or am I going to be telling you how it's going to be done?
  36. [18:02:40] <Gumbo> I'm unsure what is being called into question herre?
  37. [18:03:11] <Gumbo> I was putting in highway legally.. .I've been griefed and insulted
  38. [18:03:22] <Belisama> Gumbo, you want to make a highway on a certain path. Pruce is not in agreement with that. It is a large project going through an area that has a lot of sentimental value and they've asked you to not
  39. [18:03:23] <Belisama> do it.
  40. [18:03:38] <Belisama> You will be reimbursed for the catseyes/waystones that were removed with replacements, and that has already been discussed with the player.
  41. [18:03:57] <Belisama> You also cannot just come in and drop a big huge highway through an area after you are aware that other Wurmians don't want the project there
  42. [18:04:08] <Belisama> This is where the mediation broke down
  43. [18:04:12] <Belisama> And is partially why I am here.
  44. [18:04:20] <Gumbo> singular.. one wurm player
  45. [18:04:21] <Pruce> I feel you are specifically doing this just to grief me since I stated I did not want the highway to use this path.
  46. [18:04:32] <Belisama> I want to find a solution for this highway situation that you can both live with.
  47. [18:04:36] <Pruce> Your stated purpose was to "find uniques". The existing roads do that.
  48. [18:04:53] <Pruce> You just want to do this since I asked you not to.
  49. [18:05:22] <Pruce> But if you do want a highway from crystal bay I have several alternatives that might work for us both.
  50. [18:05:28] <Gumbo> you are making an accusation.. do you have proof I am doing this to grief you ... or are you just making something up to make a scene
  51. [18:05:36] <Pruce> But I cannot agree to a straight path.
  52. [18:06:00] <Belisama> Gumbo, Pruce is offering alternatives to the path that you had planned. Let us discuss those.
  53. [18:06:01] <Pruce> I have stated my feelings.
  54. [18:06:51] <Gumbo> my purpose was many things.. I gave you a couple of them.. now you just focus on the Unique hunting and criticize that... there are other reasons too.. I just didn't share those wiht you
  55. [18:06:51] <Belisama> I have seen the offered alternatives. All of which seem to be going exactly where you want to go, with less disruption to the current valley
  56. [18:07:24] <Belisama> So why exactly are those not acceptable to you, Gumbo?
  57. [18:07:38] <Pruce> If you would communicate reasonable we could have worked this out ourselves.
  58. [18:08:30] <Pruce> If you have other considerations please state them.
  59. [18:08:31] <Gumbo> I would like to see the scenery as I travel through here
  60. [18:08:38] <Gumbo> not a cave wall
  61. [18:08:44] <Pruce> Existing roads do that.
  62. [18:09:11] <Gumbo> I cannot look for uniques and turn left right up down..
  63. [18:09:38] <Belisama> And the existing paths currently do that, as I understand after a fly through. You don't need a formal highway for that.
  64. [18:10:07] <Pruce> There is no new functionality by a new highway.
  65. [18:10:15] <Pruce> Nightmare is already on the highway system.
  66. [18:10:16] <Gumbo> the existing paths make it difficult to move and search
  67. [18:10:50] <Pruce> They can be adjusted without resorting to a huge wall of a straight highway.
  68. [18:10:58] <Belisama> Is your primary concern not having an actual highway, but traversable series of paths, Gumbo?
  69. [18:11:00] <Gumbo> the were incomplete.. with breaks in the cobble... places over 40 dirts slopes
  70. [18:11:18] <Belisama> Pruce, will you fix these paths, terraform and replace the cobble?
  71. [18:11:23] <Gumbo> dismount to get to other paths
  72. [18:11:28] <Belisama> Make them more easily traversable?
  73. [18:11:40] <Pruce> From here to crystal bay can call be reached without going over 40 slope
  74. [18:11:49] <Pruce> In fact 24 slope max
  75. [18:11:58] <Gumbo> Pruce could also help with the ingoing cobble highway
  76. [18:12:39] <Gumbo> I fixed the old single road..so I could get through this area.. it was unpassable before
  77. [18:12:40] <Pruce> A new highway does not fix that which he speaks.
  78. [18:12:48] <Belisama> Wasn't my question, Pruce.
  79. [18:13:03] <Belisama> If we identify areas that have changed through one way or another over the years, will you fix them so that they are traversable?
  80. [18:13:16] <Pruce> I don't know what is being referenced. I go to crystal bay without going over 24 slope, paved all the way.
  81. [18:13:31] <Belisama> Okay, Gumbo, show us an area that is over 40 slope and untraversable please
  82. [18:13:43] <Gumbo> you are talking cave route.. correct Pruce?
  83. [18:14:06] <Pruce> There are 2 tunnels. You can pop out in between and look for uniques.
  84. [18:14:26] <Gumbo> show me an over the top route to crystal lake from here. . no existant
  85. [18:14:34] <Gumbo> I don't want a cave route
  86. [18:14:45] <Gumbo> stop with that suggestion pls
  87. [18:14:53] <Pruce> So build a road over the top to supplement the existing roads.
  88. [18:15:05] <Gumbo> there ya go
  89. [18:15:19] <Pruce> Doesn't need to be a single elevated highway straight throug the valley
  90. [18:15:39] <Pruce> That highway you build to Teeebomb's place is an impassible abomination.
  91. [18:15:48] <Belisama> Here's the thing, Gents, we can't always get what we want, and this fighting isn't going to help.
  92. [18:15:54] <Pruce> Great if you are travelling north. Terrible crossing east-west
  93. [18:16:01] <Pruce> I don't want that here.
  94. [18:16:09] <Gumbo> demonize me some more .. .I don't need this Bellisama.. he is not being insulting
  95. [18:16:17] <Gumbo> *now
  96. [18:16:18] <Belisama> Okay, plan B it is.
  97. [18:16:22] <Pruce> We need to express our concerns in order to find common ground.
  98. [18:16:43] <Belisama> Okay, you can both stop talking and I'm going to say a few things and then I"ll tell you when it's your turn again, got it?
  99. [18:16:46] <Pruce> How can you cross that east-west? It's 290 slope!
  100. [18:17:27] <Belisama> First, this is a Sandbox game. You need to WORK with your neighbors, NOT sit here and snipe at each other and both insist it's your way or the highway, so to speak.
  101. [18:18:04] <Pruce> I would be glad to help even, if a mutually agreeable route is found.
  102. [18:18:27] <Belisama> Second, you're going to get ONE FINAL attempt to find a mutually satisfactory path for this highway and if there are any insults from either of you, I'm going to take over and tell you exactly where
  103. [18:18:31] <Belisama> the highway is going to go.
  104. [18:18:49] <Belisama> I said no speaking
  105. [18:19:26] <Belisama> Gumbo. Your highway is being hotly contested by someone who has a deed in this area, that was legally placed, and that deed is not griefing you.
  106. [18:19:34] <Gumbo> well if I'm not mistaken.. game mechanics are on my side... I'm not griefing by putting in a highway... the devs put in ways to prevent people from doing what Pruce is attempting
  107. [18:19:51] <Gumbo> his deed can stay
  108. [18:20:03] <Belisama> I also said NO SPEAKING UNTIL I SAID SO
  109. [18:20:06] <Gumbo> sorry
  110. [18:20:49] <Belisama> Yes, his deed can stay, but you won't be able to put your highway over it, so we need to find another path.
  111. [18:20:59] <Gumbo> I will
  112. [18:21:23] <Belisama> So, you can find one that works with Pruce as well, and we can make good neighborly relations, or I am going to tell you where that highway is going.
  113. [18:21:42] <Gumbo> I can simply go around it
  114. [18:22:06] <Belisama> Now. You get ONE LAST CHANCE to work together to find a path that doesn't disrupt that valley unnecessarily and that Pruce can live with.
  115. [18:22:16] <Belisama> Gumbo, have I said you could speak yet?
  116. [18:22:23] <Belisama> You keep pushing.
  117. [18:23:02] <Belisama> Now, you can both speak again, but there will be no insults, no accusations, there is ONLY discussion of where there is a path taht you can both live with.
  118. [18:23:13] <Belisama> And, Gumbo, you need to be open to some brief cave paths.
  119. [18:23:20] <Pruce> Gumbo may I show you some alternatives?
  120. [18:23:27] <Gumbo> I will make my highway around what his griefer deed
  121. [18:23:58] <Gumbo> he wanted to prevent a highway close to Eagles Nest.. but he is now forcing it there, to get around Death Valley.. consider that
  122. [18:24:05] <Pruce> And already with the insults
  123. [18:24:46] <Belisama> We're done with accusations and insults.
  124. [18:24:51] <Gumbo> I don't need your permission Pruce... the game mechanics are there to stop people from griefing like you are doing
  125. [18:24:51] <Pruce> and a threat too...
  126. [18:25:06] <Belisama> If you two can't work together, then expect a GM directive to explain exactly where the highway can and cannot go
  127. [18:25:22] <Belisama> Last chance.
  128. [18:25:27] <Gumbo> I want an above ground highway.. where would you like it to go?
  129. [18:25:42] <Pruce> May I show you something that may work?
  130. [18:25:50] <Gumbo> all above ground?
  131. [18:25:54] <Pruce> Yes sir
  132. [18:26:00] <Gumbo> lead on
  133. [18:26:16] <Pruce> next intersection
  134. [18:26:45] <Belisama> Slow down, Pruce, Gumbo is on foot
  135. [18:26:52] <Pruce> sorry!
  136. [18:27:07] <Gumbo> this seems rather far out of the way of the proposed highway
  137. [18:27:13] <Gumbo> 50+ tiless
  138. [18:27:15] <Pruce> bear with me
  139. [18:27:35] <Pruce> this is all existing highway
  140. [18:27:52] <Pruce> adds a new mountain top for unique searching...
  141. [18:28:08] <Pruce> and access to this mountain to the right
  142. [18:28:13] <Pruce> you can get up top from here
  143. [18:28:40] <Pruce> this section is all highway ready
  144. [18:29:41] <Pruce> here is only about 20-30 tiles north of Death Valley
  145. [18:30:17] <Gumbo> but we are trying to go north
  146. [18:30:29] <Pruce> south you mean
  147. [18:30:38] <Gumbo> errr ya.. south
  148. [18:31:09] <Pruce> running this troll off
  149. [18:32:00] <Pruce> ok I'm right below there now
  150. [18:32:24] <Gumbo> again.. it's going north.. the goal is north
  151. [18:32:27] <Gumbo> errr Soutn'
  152. [18:32:31] <Gumbo> backwards here
  153. [18:32:34] <Pruce> Yes, not a straight path, but would not affect my access to this valley
  154. [18:33:13] <Pruce> Non-highway path would still exist, and you could still have a highway connecting Crystal Bay to Great Mountain Road.
  155. [18:33:37] <Gumbo> it's not very time saving.. that is another thing I and my friends like... faster routes.. not slower
  156. [18:33:48] <Belisama> It's not that much more time.
  157. [18:33:51] <Gumbo> it takes us out of our way
  158. [18:33:54] <Belisama> Especially on horseback
  159. [18:33:57] <Pruce> Well if its time-savings that's the concern, the cave route is fastest.
  160. [18:34:02] <Belisama> And there are still going to be traversable paths through the valley.
  161. [18:34:03] <Pruce> You can do that TOO
  162. [18:34:04] <Gumbo> it's more time than I wish to spend
  163. [18:34:32] <Belisama> Gumbo, it'll likely cost you an extra what, 5-10 minutes, at most?
  164. [18:34:39] <Belisama> It's all pretty much terraformed already.
  165. [18:34:41] <Pruce> If you have a need to get there quickly (not search for uniques), choose the cave highway.
  166. [18:35:03] <Gumbo> I curious Belisama.... do you think you could maybe try to coax Pruce into going my route for a bit?
  167. [18:35:09] <Pruce> No up/down up/down and no switchbacks. Straight line.
  168. [18:35:21] <Gumbo> I feel I"m being ganged up here
  169. [18:35:26] <Belisama> We'll get there.
  170. [18:35:33] <Belisama> Right now we're looking at this option
  171. [18:35:39] <Pruce> I'm a gang?
  172. [18:35:56] <Gumbo> thanks.. is in the wrong direction from where I would like to go
  173. [18:36:09] <Belisama> Why does it have to be a highway if your only concern is ridability?
  174. [18:36:17] <Gumbo> is many things
  175. [18:36:31] <Gumbo> the all amount to going the route I chose
  176. [18:36:33] <Belisama> There's already an existing highway to where you want to go, and as you said, your primary concern is unique hunting.
  177. [18:36:35] <Pruce> This is why I feel it is griefing.
  178. [18:36:46] <Gumbo> not primary
  179. [18:36:48] <Pruce> My only choice is his straight 20-slope highway
  180. [18:36:58] <Gumbo> Pruce said that was my primary reason.. not me
  181. [18:37:00] <Belisama> Again, large projects such as a highway cannot just be placed through an area where others contest it. This one is being ocntested.
  182. [18:37:13] <Belisama> You said that earlier, you wanted faster, easier unique hunting.
  183. [18:37:27] <Gumbo> my proposed route is 100 tiles away from your deed Pruce
  184. [18:37:32] <Belisama> There are viable options for a big highway that bypass the valley.
  185. [18:37:49] <Pruce> No - more like 40-50
  186. [18:37:51] <Belisama> And then there can be a smaller traversable path, one lane wide, that goes through the valley, overland.
  187. [18:38:19] <Pruce> This all started because I saw you working regularly in my local from my house.
  188. [18:38:57] <Pruce> I showed you an idea. Show me an alternative?
  189. [18:38:57] <Belisama> My suggestion would be a middle ground.
  190. [18:39:13] <Belisama> What about putting the big highway on a path that diverts the valley
  191. [18:39:15] <Belisama> BUT...
  192. [18:39:31] <Belisama> put an established, traversable ONE TILE WIDE path that runs in a FAIRLY straight line through that valley
  193. [18:39:36] <Belisama> To where you want to be, Gumbo
  194. [18:39:48] <Belisama> You get the path you want, it's not the huge highway that Pruce objects to
  195. [18:39:53] <Belisama> The highway goes around
  196. [18:40:00] <Belisama> You'll both work together on it
  197. [18:40:07] <Pruce> But still makes the valley not traversable.
  198. [18:40:24] <Belisama> A one tile wide path, when you state that there are already paths that go through there?
  199. [18:40:29] <Belisama> Doesn't have to be a straight line
  200. [18:40:36] <Pruce> The only way to put a 2-tile 20 slope highway up the valley is lots of switchbacks. All those are steep slope sides.
  201. [18:40:38] <Belisama> It can wend and weave, but it has to be traversable
  202. [18:40:55] <Belisama> It is MIDDLE GROUND, gents
  203. [18:41:07] <Pruce> Well let's have a look so you can see my point.
  204. [18:41:08] <Belisama> Big highway goes around, smaller path goes through to allow for transit
  205. [18:41:39] <Gumbo> so now over to my proposed spot?
  206. [18:41:45] <Belisama> Yes, Gumbo
  207. [18:41:50] <Pruce> Sure, where to?
  208. [18:42:13] <Gumbo> east side Death valley tunnel
  209. [18:43:16] <Pruce> Here?
  210. [18:43:25] <Belisama> He's coming, Pruce
  211. [18:43:56] <Gumbo> notice the hampered cave travel time
  212. [18:47:04] <Pruce> I'm going to use the cave - faster
  213. [18:48:19] <Gumbo> so would like to know ... what reasons are there to make this a legitamit "contesting" ?
  214. [18:48:51] <Belisama> A moment, RL phone call.
  215. [18:49:03] <Pruce> Where are you currently?
  216. [18:49:24] <Gumbo> climbed up
  217. [18:49:25] <Pruce> I don't object to your work here. My concern is through the valley
  218. [18:49:59] <Pruce> I'm out of stam
  219. [18:50:20] <Belisama> Sorry about that, I return.
  220. [18:50:39] <Pruce> Gumbo can I get up the other side?
  221. [18:50:43] <Belisama> Pruce, is there a path that you'd agree upon through the valley, hugging the mountain wall, and to this point? NOT a major highway, let's start with that.
  222. [18:50:45] <Gumbo> yes
  223. [18:51:01] <Pruce> ok, I'll go around
  224. [18:51:16] <Pruce> @Belisama yes - the north wall of the valley would be fine
  225. [18:51:46] <Belisama> Gumbo, will you agree to a path that hugs the north wall of the valley
  226. [18:51:51] <Gumbo> my plan has been and always was.. to go from here... angle diagonally to the SW .. hug the mtn for 14 tiles... then go due west and connect with the ramp I've been making on that side
  227. [18:52:06] <Gumbo> south wall hugging?
  228. [18:52:38] <Gumbo> that was my route.. the right along this wall here that I"m at
  229. [18:52:54] <Belisama> Hold on, Pruce has moved out of local
  230. [18:53:06] <Belisama> Okay, say that again, Gumbo, now that Pruce is back in local
  231. [18:53:17] <Gumbo> [18:51:51] <Gumbo> my plan has been and always was.. to go from here... angle diagonally to the SW .. hug the mtn for 14 tiles... then go due west and connect with the ramp I've been making on that s
  232. [18:53:37] <Gumbo> side
  233. [18:54:12] <Gumbo> this way where I am... but 14 tiles south.. to hit that down ramp on west side GSHwy
  234. [18:54:57] <Belisama> Okay, not a straight shot, hugging the mountain?
  235. [18:55:18] <Gumbo> cannot be straight.. .they are 14 tiles different.. I have explained that before
  236. [18:55:52] <Pruce> and that is the part I object to. Going SW goes left of my existing roads, and blocks access to the N/S valley
  237. [18:56:10] <Pruce> I would prefer this go via the right-side mountain wall (north side)
  238. [18:56:24] <Pruce> Leave my existing road and tunnel
  239. [18:56:40] <Pruce> (please)
  240. [18:57:10] <Gumbo> I will only be crossing one cobble tile
  241. [18:57:19] <Gumbo> it will be fine
  242. [18:57:47] <Pruce> But take out the whole cedar woods I made walkable and put a wall across the end of the valley.
  243. [18:58:05] <Gumbo> I need to match up a good height on this side.. to that side.. I hug this mtn. and get in matching height range.. and we're good
  244. [18:58:13] <Pruce> I've not finished sloping the right side, so no real impact if you went that side.
  245. [18:58:28] <Gumbo> trees chopped?
  246. [18:58:43] <Gumbo> your objection is trees chopped?
  247. [18:59:18] <Pruce> To the left of the road is a cedar woods I planted and sloped so I can walk to every tile. You want to road through there.
  248. [18:59:20] <Gumbo> I think I'd like to hear some valid reasons why this highway I'm making, is being contested pls
  249. [18:59:34] <Pruce> Look behind you
  250. [18:59:48] <Pruce> the slopes of the sides of the highway are impassible
  251. [19:00:06] <Pruce> That is what I have to cross trying to travel north-south
  252. [19:00:17] <Pruce> I have said this many times.
  253. [19:00:31] <Gumbo> the slopes on the sides of the highway .. will be passable.. I guarantee that
  254. [19:00:38] <Pruce> I helped BUILD Great Mountain Highway. I know my highway building.
  255. [19:01:10] <Gumbo> I started the GSHwy... with a buddy and his deed
  256. [19:01:34] <Pruce> GS?
  257. [19:01:39] <Belisama> Off topic, gents. Let's bring it back before things escalate again
  258. [19:01:41] <Gumbo> Great Southern Hwy
  259. [19:01:55] <Pruce> Oh yeah, much later.
  260. [19:02:00] <Gumbo> so this route.. no slopes.. problem?
  261. [19:02:34] <Gumbo> cedar trees replanted where needed
  262. [19:02:38] <Pruce> Can't be done. I'm fine up until the valley. Please use the right side of the valley.
  263. [19:02:59] <Gumbo> [18:59:20] <Gumbo> I think I'd like to hear some valid reasons why this highway I'm making, is being contested pls
  264. [19:03:15] <Pruce> I'm trying not to be insulting.
  265. [19:03:20] <Belisama> Gents, we're both going to have to give a little here. Neither of you is going to exactly get your way.
  266. [19:03:33] <Gumbo> [18:59:20] <Gumbo> I think I'd like to hear some valid reasons why this highway I'm making, is being contested pls
  267. [19:04:42] <Belisama> He has given you several, including impact to his current paths, etc.
  268. [19:04:52] <Belisama> We need to find a solution now. This has been ongoing for a long time.
  269. [19:05:02] <Pruce> He does not thing my reasons valid...
  270. [19:05:07] <Pruce> think*
  271. [19:05:12] <Gumbo> my route will not create any unpassable regions
  272. [19:05:16] <Belisama> and if you two can't agree on something, the GM team will make a directive and we will decide the path, and you'll both live with it.
  273. [19:05:29] <Pruce> Understood
  274. [19:05:48] <Pruce> Gumbo look at this slope even this - the better part of your highway 121 slope.
  275. [19:05:52] <Pruce> Impassible
  276. [19:06:06] <Gumbo> huh?
  277. [19:06:08] <Pruce> This entire highway you have built. Same thing.
  278. [19:06:08] <Belisama> This is your very last chance to find something you can BOTH agree upon. I am going to walk away for 5-10 minutes, and you will both stay in local and DISCUSS, NOT ARGUE.
  279. [19:06:14] <Pruce> Can't be crossed.
  280. [19:06:18] <Pruce> That's my issue.
  281. [19:06:26] <Gumbo> the sides were not passable before
  282. [19:06:31] <Belisama> When I return, I expect progress towards that goal. And if this is not resolved in the next 20 minutes, it will be a GM directive. Do you both hear me?
  283. [19:06:35] <Gumbo> that is not a valid reason
  284. [19:06:37] <Pruce> But down there they are
  285. [19:06:44] <Pruce> don't break it for me please!
  286. [19:06:51] <Belisama> Focus, gents, see my text and acknowledge it
  287. [19:06:52] <Gumbo> [18:59:20] <Gumbo> I think I'd like to hear some valid reasons why this highway I'm making, is being contested pls
  288. [19:07:04] <Pruce> Put the highway where the slopes are already broken
  289. [19:07:11] <Pruce> The right side...
  290. [19:07:35] <Pruce> These are valid reasons!
  291. [19:07:40] <Belisama> READ MY TEXT GENTLEMEN
  292. [19:07:43] <Belisama> AND ACKNOWLEDGE
  293. [19:08:03] <Pruce> Which text?
  294. [19:08:22] <Pruce> I'm trying to work it out. Why not let us?
  295. [19:08:59] <Belisama> I'm going to step away for 5-10 minutes, I expect more progress and no insults when I return, and if we don't have a solution in the next 20, the GM's are going to make a directive. Got it?
  296. [19:09:19] <Pruce> You can make a directive now if you like
  297. [19:09:39] <Pruce> He is not willing to compromise. 20 minutes will not help
  298. [19:10:02] <Belisama> You're both going to give something at the end of the day, so be prepared for that. I'll be right back.
  299. [19:10:22] <Pruce> I don't know what else we can do
  300. [19:21:51] <Belisama> Okay, I return. I don't see any chatter, so am I to take this that neither of you can come up with a solution you can both live with?
  301. [19:22:09] <Gumbo> I did
  302. [19:22:28] <Belisama> I said that you can BOTH live with, Gumbo
  303. [19:22:37] <Gumbo> He can keep his Death Valley blocker deed... and I will route my highway around it... .we both get what we want
  304. [19:23:14] <Pruce> And when you route uphill and I grow my deed to block we'll be right back here again.
  305. [19:23:19] <Gumbo> now if his goal is not about the Death Valley deed.. then he's in a wee bit of trouble
  306. [19:23:27] <Belisama> No, because you still are going through an area that he doesn't want a full highway on. And there are many highways around here.
  307. [19:23:35] <Gumbo> no we won't Pruce
  308. [19:23:39] <Belisama> GM Directive Time
  309. [19:23:42] <Belisama> You will both listen
  310. [19:23:43] <Gumbo> you expand all you want to
  311. [19:23:47] <Belisama> Neither of you will speak
  312. [19:23:53] <Belisama> Do. I. Make. Myself. Clear
  313. [19:24:13] <Belisama> I have discussed this with other GM's, including all information provided by both parties.
  314. [19:24:22] <Belisama> At this time, the GM team has the following directive:
  315. [19:24:51] <Belisama> First. Pruce, you will manufacture and replace the catseyes/waystone that you pulled up illegally and you will provide those to Gumbo.
  316. [19:25:26] <Belisama> Second, Gumbo, you will not build the highway as planned. There will be no highway through this area. There are many others that go around here that are amenable and the deeds are on the highway
  317. [19:25:29] <Belisama> system.
  318. [19:25:37] <Belisama> This is the final word.
  319. [19:25:50] <Belisama> Appeals may be made to the HGM, Enki, and the AHGM, Pomona.
  320. [19:27:29] <Pruce> Speak now?
  321. [19:27:34] <Belisama> You may
  322. [19:27:57] <Pruce> I have the cateyes and waystone. I will fetch them and return while all still here?
  323. [19:27:59] <Gumbo> I seem to be missing the part of the judgement that Pruce is not going to like
  324. [19:28:11] <Belisama> He's giving the catseyes and the waystone to you.
  325. [19:28:15] <Gumbo> that was a 55ql waystone btw
  326. [19:28:17] <Belisama> You can get them, yes.
  327. [19:28:23] <Belisama> What ql are yours, Pruce?
  328. [19:28:27] <Gumbo> you're kidding right?
  329. [19:28:41] <Belisama> As I said, appeals may be made to Enki and Pomona.
  330. [19:28:48] <Gumbo> again... where is the part of the judgement that Pruce is not going to like
  331. [19:28:51] <Gumbo> ?
  332. [19:29:05] <Belisama> I've already given that answer, Gumbo.
  333. [19:29:13] <Gumbo> hat is a joke
  334. [19:29:15] <Pruce> I have the exact catseyes removed.
  335. [19:29:16] <Gumbo> *that
  336. [19:29:25] <Belisama> How long will it take you to get them, Pruce?
  337. [19:29:30] <Belisama> And are they damaged?
  338. [19:29:36] <Pruce> About 2 minutes
  339. [19:29:42] <Belisama> Fine, get them please.
  340. [19:29:46] <Pruce> longer to ride back
  341. [19:31:08] <Gumbo> giving back to me that which he destroyed... is not something he dislikes... infact that is pleasing
  342. [19:31:22] <Gumbo> what kind of a silly judgement is this?
  343. [19:31:59] <Belisama> You have your options for appeal. If you continue to argue, you can have a time out. Now, I need to leave. You two can handle this trade peaceably, can you not?
  344. [19:32:14] <Pruce> I can
  345. [19:32:15] <Belisama> If not, they that does not trade peaceably WILL get a time out.
  346. [19:32:28] <Gumbo> lol
  347. [19:32:56] <Gumbo> maybe a finger wagging... that'll learn em
  348. [19:33:20] <Gumbo> so this here Directive.. that's good for how long?
  349. [19:33:28] <Belisama> Permanent.
  350. [19:33:38] <Gumbo> don't think there are such things
  351. [19:33:47] <Gumbo> if so.. I will need this in writing pls
  352. [19:34:05] <Belisama> You have it, in the logs right here. And that is what you will get. Now, make the exchange peaceably.
  353. [19:34:17] <Gumbo> infact.. could you send me all your data and info on the forum pls.. so I can contest this contesting
  354. [19:40:39] <Pruce> Almost there
  355. [19:43:31] <Pruce> Take care
  356. [19:43:46] <Gumbo> up yours you whiney asshole
  357. [19:43:54] <Pruce> lol
  358. [19:44:09] <Pruce> I did not complain to the GM :)
