Greetings,

effective immediately, I'm placing the council on a hiatus of undefined
period.

Like most people, I don't like to admit defeat, but I fear it makes no sense
to keep on running when your legs are broken, proverbially speaking.

When I started this little social experiment, I truly believed that we could
actually INCREASE the amount stuff being done for BatMUD, and in a somewhat
controller manner. It's now obvious that our organizational structure, being
something from a hippie daydream, is not equipped to have anyone or anything
question or affirm/deny their doings.

Additionally it's obvious that the council isn't a source of implemented new
ideas I imagined it might be.

I need to seriously rethink whether such a body is needed at all, and if so,
what could the role of such an organ (haw, haw!) be. I fear it's back to the
'you will be informed when released, if even then'-approach we have apparently
grown to love over the years.

Oh, yeah, and inline with this new understanding, I'm warning you that I'm
tuning mounts resists so that it will be very rare to have a mount fully
immune to physical damage. There will be no discussion on this.

Rgds, Ulath
