The Great Tree

[KiKi]

Hi all! I missed the very beginning of this conversation. This log is long and unedited but may answer some of the questions we all have about the future of Uru.

(02/09 18:06:19) Chat.log started...
(02/09 18:06:35) From Farlesis in The Great Tree (237) Neighborhood: is grey dragon with him?
(02/09 18:06:42) G'ildor: We get to speak our minds without worrying about the repercussions.
(02/09 18:06:5 Kha'tie: Ubi is huge and there are a lot of us who want to shield Cyan from anyone's wrath. They certainly don't deserve it!
(02/09 18:07:19) To Farlesis: no
(02/09 18:07:24) America: /

(02/09 18:11:44) Rux_ laughs
(02/09 18:11:51) CyanBill: with an ex-banker and his unemployed brother
(02/09 18:11:59) America: <pass the popcorn Rux>
(02/09 18:12:03) CyanBill: ex-banker not quite right - Rand programmed at a bank
(02/09 18:12:10) Rux_: here you go.
(02/09 18:12:1 America: TY
(02/09 18:12:20) CyanBill: I'm not even sure what the 1st game was...Osmo?
(02/09 18:12:34) Rux_: manhole?
(02/09 18:12:47) CyanBill: fantastic, interactive worlds for kids mainly...but grownups liked em too
(02/09 18:12:54) America: is that the cow logo in the closet?
(02/09 18:13:21) CyanBill: at a Mac expo of some sort, a Japanese company called Sunsoft approached the Millers
(02/09 18:13:44) CyanBill: soon Rand and Robyn were sitting in Sunsoft's office in Japan pitching Myst
(02/09 18:14:11) CyanBill: it went well, they got the deal, and had to borrow money for a cab to the airport lol
(02/09 18:14:37) America: what did the first code look like?
(02/09 18:14:45) CyanBill: Myst was a slow grower but boy did it ever
(02/09 18:15:05) CyanBill: Myst was designed and built in hypercard which was originally packaged free with Macs
(02/09 18:15:20) Angus Thermopile: I bought it 1 hour before my firts PC. It was my 1st ever game.
(02/09 18:15:41) America: wicked...and mac users still havent seen this wonderful place....sad
(02/09 18:15:41) From Farlesis: you get a picture of him?
(02/09 18:15:44) CyanBill: At some point Broderbund, the US publisher, wrote their own engine, probably in the process of porting it to PC
(02/09 18:16:04) To Farlesis: yes..but not close up..too many people...
(02/09 18:16:16) From Farlesis: i'll make a way through lol
(02/09 18:16:17) CyanBill: in 1994, I bought a cd rom drive from a friend and played Myst for the first time
(02/09 18:16:24) To Farlesis: lol
(02/09 18:16:52) America: WOOT now thats a first
(02/09 18:16:54) Angus Thermopile: Good for you UM
(02/09 18:16:55) CyanBill: as a condition of the negotiation to buy the drive, I could only play Myst together with my wife
(02/09 18:17:13) CyanBill: so it took us about half a year to get through HA
(02/09 18:17:22) Angus Thermopile: It's best played with another, I think.
(02/09 18:18:09) CyanBill: 5 years later I was working for Cyan and 4 years after that I broke thousands of people's hearts all at once L(
(02/09 18:18:23) CyanBill: bleh
(02/09 18:18:26) From Farlesis: got one
(02/09 18:18:32) America: I hope Bill that Cyan is safe in all this mess
(02/09 18:18:36) Rux_: it's all right Bill
(02/09 18:18:37) To Farlesis: great!
(02/09 18:18:56) Jenniran2: time heals all. in time everyone will come around

(02/09 18:19:05) Angus Thermopile: Yes, you're not going to go belly up on us, are you?
(02/09 18:19:2 G'ildor: We'll survive and prosper, Bill, not just as individuals, but as a community too.
(02/09 18:19:42) shadowcats: as a FAMILY
(02/09 18:19:56) America: we, Cyan's populas, will aid in any means fit
(02/09 18:19:5 CyanBill: don't know if safe is the right word - talented, flexible, optimistic, faithful...that's what real safety comes from anyway in any industry
(02/09 18:20:20) Angus Thermopile: Right on!
(02/09 18:20:31) shadowcats: Keep The Dream Alive
(02/09 18:20:43) CyanBill: and we have a CEO that would go down with the ship - that's something most companies don't have anymore
(02/09 18:20:54) Jaresh waves
(02/09 18:21:05) San_San: shorah everyone!!
(02/09 18:21:06) America: well spare no expense on legal teams, this is worth its weight in gold....The first online that will know EverQuest to its knees

(02/09 18:21:19) CyanBill: time will tell Lorlee
(02/09 18:21:25) Allima_c: One good thing this is for me personally. My son have big hopes for me being role-playing online.
(02/09 18:21:44) CyanBill: I don't know D"yani - like whcih?
(02/09 18:22:21) America: to bad Sony didnt pick this up...the Japaneese are more "honorable"
(02/09 18:22:27) D'yani: I bought a laptop to play at night, it has SiS, will run sort of online but not off.
(02/09 18:23:17) BrAnCh: sup bill wow, really happy to see you! this really makes my day!!!
(02/09 18:23:59) America: and as I see it Bill, this is totally new Legal ground...so presedence is being set for all the future dreamers
(02/09 18:24:26) BrAnCh: and I don't mind if I say we have a decent repsonse time with this many people here!
(02/09 18:24:26) CyanBill: I don't know Robin
(02/09 18:24:41) CyanBill: the nice thing about being a dreamer is you're exempt from worrying about other dreamers ha
(02/09 18:25:22) Angus Thermopile: Don't worry about us Bill, just stick to what you know.
(02/09 18:25:27) BrAnCh: are you guys working a long night tonight? Bill?
(02/09 18:25:35) America: I only hate to see the little guy get conned, then the door swings closed and new dreamers are left to rot
(02/09 18:25:4 shadowcats: we all have a dream to keep it live if not now later on down the track
(02/09 18:25:57) CyanBill: the only think I can think of for you to do is sign that petition
(02/09 18:26:21) CyanBill: and better yet - get people who haven't signed up to try live to sign it
(02/09 18:26:29) BrAnCh: forgive my ignorance but isn't the Matrix online doing well and UBI supports it better than they supported you?
(02/09 18:26:32) Angus Thermopile: How many have signed so far? (blush)
(02/09 18:26:47) America: my reasearch shows the UBI has a track record of pulling plugs....kinda made me think
(02/09 18:27:1 CyanBill: thanks Daryl
(02/09 18:27:50) Farlesis: definitely agree there Daryl
(02/09 18:28:05) Jenniran2: whats next for Cyan? Are your working on any new content besides what is being packaged for expansion packs?
(02/09 18:29:2 CyanBill: I have a question for you all
(02/09 18:29:52) BrAnCh: oh yea, what's the good work on the release date for the first pack?

(02/09 18:38:09) BrAnCh: i bett
(02/09 18:38:41) CyanBill: all of the city that's going to open is open
(02/09 18:39:00) BrAnCh: they are closing in on us
(02/09 18:39:14) BrAnCh: not the gates off the main plaza?
(02/09 18:39:14) BrAnCh: wow
(02/09 18:39:15) CyanBill: do you mean the buildings themselves KiKi?
(02/09 18:39:20) Rux_: Not opening the library further?
(02/09 18:39:26) America: we wi/shout we will all come together and forn the emperical "Horton hears a who" chain..and we will circle the globe shouting and prasing, and dropping cash into cyans hands...we will emerge victorious....we will not go in to that dark night...we will not fall....
(02/09 18:39:37) KiKi: the library..
(02/09 18:39:51) Bel'Cae: Heck of an idea...but it is not really productive
(02/09 18:39:57) Rux_: <got to go work> Tha
(02/09 18:40:06) CyanBill: the library won't be opening I'm afraid
(02/09 18:40:14) Bel'Cae: If anything, more motivation for them to cancel this kinda thing.
(02/09 18:40:16) Rux_: too bad
(02/09 18:40:17) CyanBill: at least that's what I hear from the DRC

(02/09 18:42:34) Rux_: hopefully I'll be here with you guys tonight
(02/09 18:42:5 RR_Caz: I'm somewhat ghosted, so I have to shout: Seems there was a post wherein a CCR responded favorably. let's say, to the possible inclusion of "Network Play" into a future XPack? hmmm...?
(02/09 18:43:04) BrAnCh: What's this bill no farewell banner like we had for New years??
(02/09 18:43:39) KnightShayde: what do you mean caz?
(02/09 18:43:57) shadowcats: P2P ?

(02/09 18:45:01) From Chris Waguespack in D'ni-Rudenna: .look
(02/09 18:45:14) KnightShayde: anyone know how we will be gettting the first xpansion pack? disk or download?
(02/09 18:45:1 From Thanakar in D'ni-Rudenna: Look where?
(02/09 18:45:19) From Thanakar in D'ni-Rudenna: Look where?
(02/09 18:45:25) From Chris Waguespack in D'ni-Rudenna: nm
(02/09 18:45:25) From Chris Waguespack in D'ni-Rudenna: nm
(02/09 18:45:26) America: Nina I can smell your perfue...so soft and exotic
(02/09 18:45:32) BrAnCh: i'd love a /prone command so I can drown my sadness in the fountain
(02/09 18:45:44) Angus Thermopile: lol
(02/09 18:45:4 KnightShayde: LOL good one br
(02/09 18:45:53) CyanBill: I'm not at liberty to give numbers
(02/09 18:45:59) BrAnCh: Need copy and paste
(02/09 18:46:12) CyanBill: and CCR's don't have any special access to x-pack info that you don't have actually
(02/09 18:46:26) Angus Thermopile: Don't use paste in the fountain, it clogs it up.
(02/09 18:46:36) RR_Caz: interesting Bill
(02/09 18:46:36) America: mmm
(02/09 18:46:59) CyanBill: no Michael
(02/09 18:47:01) KnightShayde: really..if they had told us a month agao to go recruiting...we probly could have made the totals
(02/09 18:47:21) BrAnCh: aaah /wiggle doesn't work
(02/09 18:47:32) Angus Thermopile: Why is the 1st Xpack free. Surely, the revenue will do you more good, Bill?
(02/09 18:47:41) Farlesis: yeah its the boat
(02/09 18:47:5 CyanBill: x1 is free mainly so you all won't hate us
(02/09 18:48:04) G'ildor: Going to pull up a seat and wait for the end with us, Bill? Grey Dragon had to take his wife to a movie. How 'bout you?
(02/09 18:48:11) Angus Thermopile: We wont hate you
(02/09 18:48:11) BrAnCh: is that possible
(02/09 18:48:25) shadowcats: well there was a lot that never signed up they were waiting for the full online part to go live not the prologe
(02/09 18:48:32) Farlesis: couldn't possibly hate you guys at Cyan
(02/09 18:48:34) RR_Caz: hey Bill, when did the boat out in the lake (ocean?) pop up?
(02/09 18:48:36) America: UBI is only telling you bits a pieces....Corporations will not disclose anything with substance, it would dilute their legel ground
(02/09 18:48:3 CyanBill: I tried to tell them you don't hate us, they said no we must give it to everyone for free!
(02/09 18:49:02) BrAnCh: free is good, but you are talking to the people that adore Myst and Cyan
(02/09 18:49:1 Bel'Cae: It is kinda nice of them to cough up the 1st pack, but just because they are taking live from us
(02/09 18:49:19) Farlesis: yep Branch
(02/09 18:49:19) KnightShayde: will i wont argue....so how will they do that one? jsut put so many copies out to the stores....or what?
(02/09 18:49:27) Angus Thermopile: I'd rather have the option of paying for it. Can you arrange that, Bill?
(02/09 18:49:39) CyanBill: download only at first - then it will be packaged with x2 I think
(02/09 18:49:50) Tarl Raven: look at how we're all waiting round together. though that could be due to us hoping you'd bring marshmallows down, Bill
(02/09 18:50:00) Farlesis: lol

(02/09 18:50:26) CyanBill: lol if you REALLY want to pay for x1 - send a gift certificate for pizza or something to Cyan
(02/09 18:50:3 Angus Thermopile roars with laughter
(02/09 18:50:41) KnightShayde: esp i they keep the "ki-mail" thing ...would make it easier for p2p to hook up folks togher
