: Oh, boy...a Logical Puzzle...I like these, but this one looks difficult. it seems that there are 4 sets of variables? Head on over to the SubetaLodge forum and lets bash our heads together and get this one solved...I mean put our heads together...heh heh.

I think I solved it if you want to go check me on the forum

: I worked the puzzle out and got the same result....finally.....So I sent it off early this afternoon PST. No telling who else did, if any. Great work folks!!

YAY! This was an easier puzzle than I thought it would be

: I'm new to solving these, mostly because at first, I didn't look for anti-associations, or other advanced logic skills needed to solve Einstein Puzzles. But I'm catching on, especially since GreenRowan is so fond of them.

I just went and searched "logic puzzle grid maker" on Google and made one for me to figure things out on. It makes it make a lot more sense, to me.

, : I found a Java Applet that makes the grid, then keeps track of all associations. You saw where I posted that Rowan replied and said that you both were correct? Well done. Yay for our team.

: I know I pinged you from the other forum, but I did so as a placeholder for our final entry before the 26th of June.

This is going to be a tough one, we have to be on our best writing on this one. We are surrounded on all sides and facing a battle. What is your character going to do?

Head on over to the SL forum. I copied the forum post and I made some comments. Time to write some good word things. [edit]

, , , , , : On Wednesday, I pinged you to the Subeta Lodge Forum so that we could plan and work out our Role-Play for Chapter 5. That was four days ago and so far there hasn't been any apparent effort to produce a story. I need to hear from you. We have 5 days left.

I've given a summary and I have some questions. I'm sorry I couldn't post earlier.

I'm back and caught up reading on what is going on. So i need to write up something for yesterday (since I wasn't able too)?

: Yes, go ahead and write out something for "wave one" and we'll see what we can do to get started on wave two. Welcome home. (hugs) : Go ahead and ask your questions. Did you ask GreenRowan about your Bard? I think a Bard can manipulate a lot of magic things with music without actually being or possessing magic of their own. It's the music that causes the effect.

Also, prepare to have your character being the brunt of jokes made by the others.

Okay will do. I got your reply on the forums also. So if bard is going to be made of, does that mean mine will too? :P

: I think that Minshasa was concerned that she had declared at the beginning that her bard knew no magic and what was she going to do with her character other then be a step-and-fetch-it, since she also didn't use a sword or bow. I was trying to encourage her to explore some of the literature out there that suggests that Bards can use music to get magically enchanted objects, creatures and people to behave in a way the benefits the group. It's not that the songs or music is magic, it's just that it influences magic objects to behave a certain way. Since the Rogues are in an enchanted magical forest, then the bards can influence things in it a bit with a song or two. Imagine if two bards sang a discordant song that caused a Wizard to explode......

To answer your question though, I don't think your bard and Minshasa's bard have to react or behave exactly the same.

I've asked GreenRowan but she hasn't replied yet. I'll just write out two versions. :) I have some time to kill today so I can enjoy myself here. Oh, got it! I've got ideas now. Shasa could have picked up a few such songs during her travels. How about music that can cause unprotected (by flesh, muscles, skin etc.) to vibrate, making it difficult for the skeleton warriors to move properly? Or extremely discordant or screechy music- there are some legitimately terrifying tunes out there- or even music that will force the listener to start dancing! Without the ambient magic of the forest, Shasa wouldn't be able to use the properties of these songs, but now she can. Or she can just get Aicha to amplify her voice and shriek at the Unseelie. Have you ever heard a fox screeching? shudders Shasa can also screw up by accidentally turning the song onto her own team, and subsequently getting yelled at. Sorry, I'm babbling. XD I'll get it done today, no worries!

Um... why will she be the brunt of jokes? Not that I mind, but be warned, Shasa can give as good as she gets. She is a member of a trickster species, and she loves pranks!

: Shasa and Teislyn could work together for some things, maybe?

: often the warrior, rogue and magic user classes see the Bards as weak or insignificant and will tease them, thinking themselves superior. I only mention it in the event our warrior chooses to tease the bards ( for comedic effect. ) Shasa may be able to dish it back, but I doubt the warrior will get it.

For sure! I put up an idea on the forum board with the companions. I'm going to write it out today fingers crossed and grumbles about work and then see what you think. It should add a bit of comedy.

I read those links you posted also. That's a good idea and that's where that idea came from :)

: Yay! 😄

, , , , , , : We have just 24 hours to finalize our story. Deadline is tomorrow evening at 11:59 PM.

Guys, I PROMISE I will have my story up tomorrow! This wholeweek has been one outing after another and the ONE DAY I didn't have a Dr's appt myself? I had to take my BFF to the Dr. sigh

I will respond, work around, and write with what you all have done.

I was wondering if Dace and Aicha can call truce since Dace is piloting and Aicha is powering the ship? We're likely to crash if we fight. xD

I promise to write it when I get home later. I'm not double shifting, so I'll be home at five subeta time instead of eleven!

: OK then, looking forward to it.

Typing it up right now. It'll be short and choppy-ish, seeing as how it's...after midnight here, but it'll be done!
