FYI, I think we just finished it, so include that knowledge in your choice about whether to leave court. I'd hate for you to post leaving and take a hit when the steps are done.Yasuki Masaki wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2025 4:32 pmA few questions in Court vs helping Tomaru
It's mentioned that those who are in court lose honour as per a minor breach of etiquette if they leave to help. So:
1) Am I right in understanding that never going to court and helping him instead doesn't incur an honour loss?
2) If going to court then leaving, does that mean you can both present something/act in court *and* participate in the event?
3) If the answer to the above is yes, is participation in the court limited in some way in that case? Either 'just the first few (or last) topics', or... something else?
Asking because if leaving also means you can't participate, I'm not sure I see why do it since it would essentially be the same as not going PLUS the honour loss. Although I guess it *is* a way to make a point of leaving XD
4) And speaking of that. Should we post us leaving court to help somewhere if we do that? The galleries maybe?
Thanks!

Re: Questions for the GMs
She acknowledged that she was duelling a clan champion, does that count?

On the healers thing, I'm not sure what yes means here. Does yes mean 'yes there are healers' in which case are they at the EM event? Or are they approaching us (like the Emerald champ said in the thread)? Or does yes mean 'yes you need to ask players to do it'?

Oh! Was getting other things done first as I was busy yesterday. Was kinda hoping to show some support there, but I suppose it doesn't make sense (or win glory or favours! XD) if it's already done.

Re: Questions for the GMs
It means that you should handle the damage how you like. If you want to write that an NPC is there to make it go away, that's fine with me. If you would rather take the opportunity to approach a PC and roleplay with them for a moment, that's fine, too.
As for the honor, take it.

There may be a moment when he returns and walks in with the water to take some kind of support action. I'm not sure.Yasuki Masaki wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2025 5:58 pmOh!

Will the Authorities! (ie the Imps) be 'acquiring' the art exhibition pieces after it is complete, or are the creators free to gift them as they will? (or sell if they're that commerce inclined.)

They aren't presented as gifts to the court, so I think the artists retain ownership.

Yuna would like to connect on D8 with
- Otomo Mariko (has a relationship, I think she could just call on her, with a basket of yummy food at the ready)
- Tortoise contact (is she possibly at the art event ME to connect & schedule a meeting? Or a bump into her in the market?)
Free windows for Yuna:

Let me know if the threads are possible!
Thanks!

Re: Questions for the GMs
Any TN penalties for presenting to Court with tea on their kimono? I know nothing has been said, but it just seems like something I should ask.

No TN penalties, but I would expect some rumors and comments.

Re: Questions for the GMs
How do negative Court point totals work by end of day? Are they immediately cashed out? Do you run a deficit? Do they wash at end of day? Hikaru failed and there should be consequences I just don't know what it should be

They get processed as lost influence. You could take that influence off Noriko (because you donated to her) or off your house.
