OOC: Re: The Archduke and the Pontiff

[X-MOC/Leman States (Even)]

Please note that I'll take anything posted on the S&C forums as common knowledge, either by word of mouth or sombeody suitable being present.

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

Seriously? Also when Alan states "Secret" he could as well do it per mail but for the OOC amusement for those interested he post it in forum.

If that is how its going to work the Pontiff will quickly post something along "Archduke we better move to a secret and private location or Patriarch States omnipotent abilities for information gathering blow our lousy cover in but seconds"

[X-DM Jon]

We can't really do it any other way. If it is written in the forum, it's public knowledge. Obviously you're, as players, free to accept any rules or limitations set by other players, and thus "not know about the secret proceedings". But if it's in the forum, someone will have heard and gleefully passed the knowledge to everyone present.

 The S&C is a massive undertaking, with servants, valets, squires, adjudants, soldiers and court aides all over the place. That is why you have private rooms to talk in, which can be done through e-mail.

 If you want it secret, do it by e-mail.

[X-IHH/Wallac Isilviere (Kasper)]

Well I'll respect that.

I'll also respect other players making a thread and telling the threads content is secret (as an alternative to mail but more interesting to all of us).

But unless stated OOC that its secret I'll do as Even

[X-Elinie/RiD (Niels)]

Or place it in "The Bard" - Then its IC, and entertaining, but you can make note that its not common knowledge.

OOC[?] "Well theres LG and theres LG. The fools all think we cannot take the ultimate action. I think now will be a good time to finish of Estates; before word of warning reach him.

I say lets order the planned assasination of Patriarch States and then move our combined armies to burn all MOC holdings. We better hope no one eaves drops on us.

I know we have been ultra secret and all but we forgot to take the precaution and encrypt our talk by use of the divine email service.

I was worth our souls to get all this dark power!

Muhahaha all the fools will suffer our wrath!"

[X-Osoerde (Alan)]

This was the intention.  The conversation is between Osoer and the Pontiff, but it is not intended to be 'secret' per se.

If I wanted that I would use dispatch/diplomacy and then an espionage action to hide it.

Poor man, being spanked by the Arch-Duck sent him mad    either that or he's turning into an elf...
