10.16 - Guild updates

Good morning Members! Your GM staff is here with another exciting update!

I’d like to start off by saying thank you for all the feedback we’ve been getting. It really helps us know where to turn our attention and what you’re craving to get out of the game. Please continue to give feedback in your signouts or email them to us at gm@kanar.club. If you’re not sure if your feedback is GM, PM, or CBM related, you can email all of them at gsom@kanar.club

Now for our update! Due to the success of our between events governing system, we’ve decided to make an additional governing system for Guilds. This elective system will allow you to continue to govern Guilds between events while still giving the benefit of not needing constant care. Don’t worry, you’ll still be able to go on modules for Guild endeavors if your signout warrants it. Due to this update, we’ve decided to make a few changes to the Guild system once the current Guild plot finishes this June.

Guilds will now operate at a County level instead of a Baronial level. What this means is, once Guilds are up for grabs, they will not be operating strictly out of Bellanmo, you could purchase a Guild for a different County anywhere in Novashan.
Resources will primarily be available based on the location of the Guild. For instance, if your Guild is located in a County that is primarily forest, it may be difficult to get stone for a Mason Guild or sand for a Glassblowing Guild. That being said, no County will lack resources needed for it to function.
Only one type of each Guild will be issued per County. No two of the same type of Guild per County.
The new Guild Governing system will work with our in-the-works crafting system update.

We hope this will make governing Guilds a little easier. We understand this is another change and we know you’ll have questions. Please give us time to get the system rolled out before giving feedback. Thank you all for your continued support, we’ll see you next game!

10.15 - Crafting is for Cool Kids

Hey members, Kay here! Some of you may know that I’ve been working on Kanar’s Crafting system while I’ve been working as a Theme Marshal and Game Master Second. I’ve made a decent amount of progress partnering with the Economy staff, but now it’s time to get you involved, the members and players! I’ve heard a lot of interest from people who also want to make our economy and crafting better. We all have a lot of ideas on how to improve, and it’s time to get all those items together.

I’ll be hosting a town-hall type meeting for Crafting, Gathering, and Economics on Friday, November 1st, starting at 6:30pm on the GM discord server: https://discord.gg/kHapQYUF

If you are interested in the crafting system, the economy, gathering materials, types of materials, or anything else related to our crafting system, I encourage you to attend this meeting. If you can’t make it, don’t worry, I’ll be hosting future meetings until the Crafting system is finalized. It is our hope and goal to get this finished and rolled out by the start of next season. Your input and help will be greatly appreciated. I hope to see you November 1st.

10.13 - GM Announcement

Orichalcum Update

While the GM staff has been reviewing the crafting system, we’ve come across several instances of items that need correction to become more balanced. While most of these items will receive updates during the transition, we have the need to address the Alchemy Orichalcum now. To address this balancing issue, the Alchemy Orichalcum will be changed to consume both the Ore and Mithril instead of just the Mirthril and enchanting time will be changed from “days to minutes” to “days to hours.” This change will be retroactive and affect all remaining doses of Orichalcum. This update will be reflected in the current crafting packets as soon as possible.

Additionally, going forward we will be removing all hidden items from the crafting packets.

We thank you for your understanding -GM Team

P.S. I have it under good authority that the current Team Rosters should be posted sooner than later.

10.13 - BOD Announcement

Hello. I am writing to you today regarding an incident that has been dealt with. On July 19 a member expressed a concern about another member cheating. Specifically, they felt that the member was creating counterfeit coins. The board responded to this allegation and had the GSOM investigate the matter. The GSOM did their investigation and unanimously found that this allegation had merit, and the member was found responsible for violation of the metagaming policy and violation of the narrative honor system due to suspicion of introducing counterfeit coins into K1 Events. The member was suspended on September 18 with potential further consequences pending a Judicial Review Board (JRB). The JRB was held on October 10 and the member was found responsible for “egregious Violation of the metagaming policy and egregious violation of the narrative honor system due to suspicion of introducing counterfeit coins into k1 Events ‘Kanar.’”

As of this time, Zachary Bacon’s membership is revoked and is permanently suspended from KGE. He is not allowed to participate in our events or to be on the property. We did not take this decision lightly and made sure to carefully consider the information provided before reaching a decision. We do not wish to see any member removed from the organization, but this kind of behavior cannot go without consequence.

This behavior has affected a large portion of the player base and will have ramifications for some time. The Board will be working with the GSOM to create an effective method of removing the counterfeit coins from circulation. We hope the player base works with the appropriate people to help in this endeavor.

Thank you for your time.

Hello, players!

It’s two weeks to the next event, and as you may have heard I’ve got something rather ambitious planned!

For more information, please check out this info sheet: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ypLBQ6BMS9snM3sjI4K0_RNQvAoh2lJYGv_Xy8Wbe4A/edit
