Disturbed "Land of Confusion" |

In the interest of making my office a bit more transparent, I’ve decided to do something similar to what Alex T. did when he was MST – namely, put updates on my LJ as to what I’ve been doing. Now, I’m not going to do it daily, as I think that’s rather overkill (and doesn’t give me a lot of time to actually *do* things!), but I’m going to aim for weekly, anyway. At least it’ll get me posting on my LJ more often than I currently do, which is to say, not really at all. As this will be the first one, it’ll be rather hefty, I imagine. Note that, for the past month and a half, I’ve not really had solid computer/internet access, so I’ll freely admit that I haven’t been able to give the AMST position the attention I believe it deserves, and I’m now playing catch up. There’s a lot on the plate, and a lot of things that *will* be coming out in the (hopefully, as I can manage) future. Without further ado, this is what I’ve been doing so far as AMST Settings: Forsaken: - We’ve had quite a few discussions about solid topics on the League list, from chronicle direction to Renown (Approvals/Stripping), the possibility of Forsaken CDM’s (or something similar), tribal/auspice identities, and more. - Worked recently on a Custom Rite that will be introduced via plotkit (the ANST’s have until Friday for final commentary, when the Rite goes into the DB and the plot is written). - Working on getting the affiliates tied into the Global game, and making sure they are involved. On that – any affiliate ANST who wants tie-in for ICC, please let me know ASAP. - Worked on ICC plot, have introduced a side plot for ICC, whereas Erik has the main plot which should be released shortly. - Advised on GenCon plot/have helped with questions from the Venue Lead. - Spending as much time as possible on IRC, to cheerlead for Forsaken, answer questions, formulate character ties, and otherwise push the venue whenever possible. Have helped players and ST’s alike in PM – from character concepts to XP expenditures to issues with getting games off the ground. - We went through two Project Leads for the Forsaken Custom Review project; I ended up heading that project myself; the current applications are just about done (should be done later today, actually); then we can go through already-approved applications. - Sanctioned three books (The Rage, The War Against the Pure, Book of Spirits); will be taking another look at WAtP shortly – discussion has begun on that. - Instituting Global projects (two are active; more to come soon, once write-ups for them are complete, and All-Calls go out) - Networked with players on various subjects; ties in somewhat with IRC traffic, above. - Provided input for implementation of PoA plotkit for CAINE, discussing points with the PoA PoC. - Provided input and feedback on a number of Global policies/suggestions/rules that affect either just the Forsaken venue, or all venues, including a clarification to a Gift that will be in the next Addendum update (due out tomorrow!) - I was part of the Red Team for the Forsaken game at USCC ’07 - Handling complaints - Reading plotkits from affiliates, considering for Global implementation. That may or may not sound like a lot, although it’s certainly *seemed* like a lot, especially with the lack of regular computer/internet access, to really do projects that require a lot of time. That problem has been (largely) fixed at this time, so I can spend more time on the position, as well as my other duties for the Cam, so that’s all good. I hope that provides some transparency/insight into what I’ve been doing so far. I know some things were a bit vague, and might seem easy, but that’s because I can’t share everything. J
