muls get removed as a racial option.
they require too much staff oversight for a role that is nearly always pretty much played as a buff human slave.
a new house/bottom tier house never open to PCs suddenly rises to the top in allanak because staff

GMHs to close as they create too much work for staff.

magick is scrapped for the mud entirely in an rpt that everyone accredits to being player driven, but no one can find the players who drove it (bonus points, double-maverick style, if the players are real, but it's actually staff pcs who are doing this, so they can condense player driven and staff driven into the same plot, thus HALVING workload)

Racism is removed from the game to streamline it. All of the races now act relatively the same. acting in accordance with 20 years of history is seen as culturally insensitive and is punished with re-education. And karma loss.
Elementalists are removed from the game to streamline it. no one admits this is a result of them now being magically superior to quarter-sorcs. The elementalist Quarter is unlinked from the game; there is a massive RPT involving teleporting moons, crashing the Plane of Nilaz into the other elemental planes to create a new universe, and Nyr's avatar proxy ridng on Tek's back through space to blow up the Death star.
Outdoors is removed frm the game to streamline it. the Known World is now encapsulated between the permanently clsed gates of Allanak.

shit, I hadn't thought of that. One more prediction, then:
Crime becomes impossible without an rpt. To streamline it.

in the very first D&D game I played, I had a cleric pc who was lawful evil and ascended eventually to become the goddess of death. her hell was 'form a' where you more or less spent eternity filling out paperwork as pointless as that, and circling around to other windows to get extra forms, etc forever. this is the first time I've seen a timely arm joke literally make me think of roleplaying hell. Not sure how I feel about that, but it's hilarious, in any case. Good job.  |

Game is closed to players and npcs are removed to place more emphasis on the vnpc population. Also, Jcarter is spot-on as to what will realistically happen.

1. Staff will do something to redstorm. Making it no longer AS playable there. The tavern, apartments, shops all will be gone, perhaps replaced with some small kuraci funded camp for survivors near the docks. Silt skimming will still exist allowing exploration into the silt sea along with foraging and spice foraging. This will make many many players rage so hard. 2. Cenyr will receive some of the love that redstorm used to have, in some ways replacing it as the place to get away from it all instead of redstorm. 3. Something will happen to the tablelands. It will drive the tribes away or kill them, make the place much much more dangerous, in the same way the silt sea or grey forest currently are (this is an old idea that has been passed around the GDB for a while). Current tablelands desert tribes will be forced inland, making luirs, and cenyr more populated and the center of the world with with citizens from either city having some interacting/trade/conflict with it. 4. Sorcerer-kings, dragons, black robes and all high-powered demi-god like npc/vnpc will be reconned out of the game. The new vnpc power level ceiling becomes red-robes and the old full sorcerer class. This is not likely since staff does love control and power over all things.  5. If the changes I predict occur people will expect BitterFlashback to lead the rants on behalf of the raging army of ex-players against the staff injustices. However, a lot of good things will happy to bitter during the holiday season and which will transform him into BitterSweetflashback, thus he will instead try to preach on behalf of love, kindness and forgiveness for all mankind including all staff member... with exception of Nyr, whom he will by then be convinced is indeed the anti-christ. |

Current tablelands desert tribes will be forced inland, making luirs, and cenyr more populated and the center of the world with with citizens from either city having some interacting/trade/conflict with it. I see all of these as highly likely. 2. Cenyr will receive some of the love that redstorm used to have, in some ways replacing it as the place to get away from it all instead of redstorm. I can only see this as possible if Cenyr becomes the replacement for the Muarki valley. And by extention Cenyr becomes the equivalent of the new "serious roleplaying clan". 4. Sorcerer-kings, dragons, black robes and all high-powered demi-god like npc/vnpc will be reconned out of the game. The new vnpc power level ceiling becomes red-robes and the old full sorcerer class. This is not likely since staff does love control and power over all things. never gonna happen. The staff are currently following the same downward spiral as Doctor Who. Expect to see more and more idioticaly high stakes paired with the towering unimportance of the players' input into directing the results of them by action. Sorry man; it's all high magic from here on out where hrpts are concerned. 5. If the changes I predict occur people will expect BitterFlashback to lead the rants on behalf of the raging army of ex-players against the staff injustices. However, a lot of good things will happy to bitter during the holiday season and which will transform him into BitterSweetflashback, thus he will instead try to preach on behalf of love, kindness and forgiveness for all mankind including all staff member... with exception of Nyr, whom he will by then be convinced is indeed the anti-christ. Even if i somehow got so enraged I had an arithmetic memory error and wound up in negative rage (happiness), Id never think Nyr was the Antichrist. As I understand it, the Antichrist is a master manipulator, highly intelligent, and is supposed to do a lot of good things prior to the apocalypse. I dont associate any of those things with Nyr. |
