Summary:

 

A fungus called the " Panellus stipticus " Fungi would begin to grow on the already cut and rotting stumps and fallen logs, this event would run for three weeks, (as stated) to which is a natural cycle of decomposition. Through the first week the " Panellus stipticus " Fungus would begin to grow around the rotting wood, (No current signs), the second week the wood would begin to decay lightly, (Some logs turned to birch, others to redwood), the final week would be that all the rotting wood would decay, to birch would to than the fungus would die as they have drank all the current nutrients from the rotting wood.

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panellus_stipticus

 

The fungus likes the taste of old trees while the moss and everything that grew upon them so it would be ideal for them to begin to decay these ones which shone, they like to grow in dense overlapping areas.

 

(This fungi process of decay cannot be accelerated)

Other Information:

 

This event runs for three weeks, you could decide to cut the fungi down but you wouldn't be able to get rid of the mycelium that easily to which would continue to decay the wood. 

Do you need the Event Team's assistance?:

 

Yes

If so, do you require actors and/or builders?:

 

I would need some builders, to place the fungus while also RP signs explaining them.

 

Maybe a actor to describe the emote of the fungi growing if I am currently not their or busy.

I don't hate this, but I need to ask...

 

What's the point of this? Why should we spend the ET's time to grow mushrooms that advance literally not plotline on LoTC? I for one would much rather see them doing interesting events, such as creatures or dungeons, rather than modifying trees to the natural cycle. 

[E__V__O 2000]

These are mini events, to clean and help with role play of the server. I am wishing to create and bring Role Play, as what these events would help with. Things such as Mini events are what create the server based on Role Play to give fun little things...

 

Little things do matter, even if it is growing fungi. As it could also be harvested for future or current alchemists for potions or other things, the area of depth is endless by these mini little events.

[MrSyth 637]

A waste of time, in my opinion. I must agree with Relgard. An ET builder would have to bother making a modreq to obtain the mycelium, as well as perms for the area. The time spent doing this could be used for working on larger scale projects like the antagonist.

[Aelu / Rel (Combustionary) 1540]

Aside from one or two alchemists making samples, I highly doubt any rp past "Oh look a mushroom" and walking past will happen, if that.

[E__V__O 2000]

Again... A unique view upon things is what brings the difference here, while not seeing the all day thing (ET playing a monster, kill or run) This gives the choice to RP with the fungus or not, and would not waste time for the ET's. As they only would have to plant the fungi to which if needed be I would be their acting out the whole RP scene of the fungal growth. If I need more help I would PM the same or other ET's members.

 

This is to expand upon RP, and RP only. Little unique things is what can make the server fun... If no one wants to RP it is their choice this is a event planned for a unique fun tail.

I think as week is about a year... So it's going to take three years to decompose some stumps?

[E__V__O 2000]

The stumps are big, (They were elder trees) and fungi do take time to decompose.

[Elindor 666]

What about "Oh look a berry bush"?

 

I have 0 problems with it. Will take a very small amount of time for someone to do and continues on with what has been a rather interesting mini-plot with those trees.

Why has this been reposted twice? You should have just edited the original event page.

As an ET builder and most likely the one that would be aske to build these I do see it as a waste of time. There is no significant RP available from this event. It won't change anything it will just give the high elves something to chop down. I would literally take time to put up mushrooms just so they can tear them down.

I'm sorry but I could use that time to be doing antagonist work or be RPing creatures or something more effective than this.

[E__V__O 2000]

That is the point... it is the same old events over and over... You might not like this little event, although it is the natural cycle that would happen... You could deal with it IC, or not.

 

 

That is the case of RP... You could just view this as with another opinion besides doing the same boring RP over and over again?.

Would it happen in real life? Yes.

 

Would it happen in a fantasy server? Maybe

 

Should it happen on a fantasy server where doing so wastes valuable time, and makes literally two lines of rp, max? Not at all.

 

It's already been discussed in Skype. Most of the high elves agree that it would simply be pointless - and if we don't want the event, who will it benefit from it being 'for' the High Elves?  I, for one, don't mind the monster attacks. They supplement RP, and for me at least, have never been nearly common enough for me to even get a little tired of them. Do this to your own place if you like the rp from it.

[E__V__O 2000]

Well, First it wouldn't take two lines of RP to grow fungi and for them to decompose... You are missing something.

 

Monster attacks are always the same, destroy it get something...

 

The fungi event would enhance RP, the reason which I posted a event about it is so that no high elf could come and destroy them for OOC reasons as what they did before when I tried this a month ago and the month before that... It always happens, since the High elves like to not to outsider RP.

 

Now for this event is just for clarifications for the people to understand what can the fungi do and what would happen so everyone can see and no OOC can be brought towards it.

 

With the ET help I would need them to plant the fungi in specific positions and I will do the RP from their and PM them if I need assistance.

 

The point of the high elves seeing it as nothing?. Good or bad?... Your choice, what this is to do is to get rid of the rotting wood which you have outside of your city, RP if you wish, RP if you don't... Avoid it if you want... 

[Neri 3590]

If you wanted to, I could throw you some mushrooms and mycelium OOC'ly since I have tons, and you can do the roleplay yourself?

 

I wouldn't mind doing it, if it gives you some extra RP.

[Aelu / Rel (Combustionary) 1540]

Well, First it wouldn't take two lines of RP to grow fungi and for them to decompose... You are missing something.

So you get a few lines of RP to grow them... then we get two lines to watch them, or kill them. Yay...?

 

Monster attacks are always the same, destroy it get something...

Everything I've seen on Skype points towards the High Elves preferring this kind of event. If you don't like them just plant mushrooms at your house or something. Let us keep the events we like, and you don't.

I'd personally give it a few hours before they were destroyed, be it OOCly or ICly. Most of us don't want to rp this.

 

Now for this event is just for clarifications for the people to understand what can the fungi do and what would happen so everyone can see and no OOC can be brought towards it.

 

Right now, we don't even RP season changes. 'Natural Cycles' are worthless on this server; they are not something that 'needs' to be RPed.

 

With the ET help I would need them to plant the fungi in specific positions and I will do the RP from their and PM them if I need assistance.

 

Still, it's a waste of valuable time. See above.

Is it that bad to let us deal with it ourselves? Why cant you do this at a place where more people want the event?
