If anything the moment people quit just moved. The total went up by a few %, but not that much. It's also unclear what caused the increase. I doubt it is relating to the new application standards, but I could be wrong. The player retention plugin is also still well...a mystery? There's no real explanation to the delay and I don't think a lot of dev work is being done to warrant such a setback (from the point of view of a regular player, don't shoot me). I'm glad this update finally went out, but it seems like a lot of PR for the status quo. Not much changed, at least in my eyes. I would like to be proven wrong however. Retention lies not just with applications and the way new players are guided, but there are issues far beyond anything the cteam can do. Maybe get those usable CT farms @Heero told me a few months ago CT could get. That should also be a nice start. Anyways, kudos to the Cteam, glad to see an update out from the pink tags.

Jan Otto Kortrevich, sitting within his office in Jerovitz recalls having to pull his daughter out of the room, to make sure she wouldn't get eaten by a bear. "Hrm." He Hrm's.

reserved @GMRO is holding my rep ratio hostage

Within the safety of the Stygian Hollow, a Mali'ker grinned as he read over the missive. "The Norlanders wish to test the resolve of the Ashen Folk then, hmm?" He asked to his cousin, the Archon of all Mali'ker. "First the mutts, now the Vallah, will our people ever find rest, Vival? To think these people once offered refuge to our kin, shameful."

How was Ronaldo?

Jan Otto Kortrevich also casts his vote! "I vote Lord Amador for Lord Handler." -signed Jan Otto Kortrevich (Formatting bad and low effort I'm on a train rn)

You're an absolute blessing to this community and I've been glad to have known you for a while chaos. Take good care of yourself, and I hope everything will go well and work out for you. All the best chaos, take care.

Jan Otto has no son, but will fully admit his cousin needs to see the sun more often.

Jan Otto Kortrevich wonders when the Silver Krawns are getting restocked. He sighs, watching his stockpile of un-redeemable silvers grow and grow!

THE ATTENLUND UNION Agreed on this 13th of Msitza & Dargund Between the House of Kortrevich, House of Amador and House of Mondblume PREFACE To the far East of the grand capital of Karosgrad lies the Attenlund: a vast wilderness, home to some of the worst threats the Kongzem has faced in Almaris. In choosing to settle these lands, the three Attenlund Houses knew the risks and challenges they were about to face. Against them stood the distance from the capital, the lack of roads, the Nachezer lurking in the distance, the fall of Krusev at the hands of the rimetrolls, and the sieges of Vidaus and Valwyck by the Nachezer. All these made one thing clear to the Lords: they could not last in the Attenlund on their own. The initiative was led by Lord Amador, who had called the Lords to meet in both Aurveldt and Jerovitz. They knew that the Brotherhood of Saint Karl, and the rest of the capital could not provide immediate aid, should such be required. The Attenlund Hillsides Therefore, to ensure their own protection and prosperity, the Houses of Kortrevich, Amador and Mondblume, hereafter referred to as the signatories, agree to adhere to the following articles: Article I. ON RESOURCES I: THAT should a signatory require material aid such as building materials, weaponry, medical supplies or food, the other signatories shall aid in acquiring them. II: THAT the signatories agree to assist each other in gathering these resources, should they find themselves unable to provide the aid up front. Article II. ON DEFENSE I: THAT in the case any of the signatories finds themselves under attack from a threat within, or outside the Attenlund, they will rally to provide initial military aid. II: THAT bonfires will be set up near each of the signatories’ lands, so that they may be used to signal both each other, and the forces stationed within Karosgrad. III: THAT the mutual defense serves as a first line, and does not aim to be used as a separate Haeseni levy. The rallied forces serve as the initial fighting force, until the Brotherhood can come to the aid of the signatories, should such be needed. Article III. ON PRINCIPLES AND MEMBERSHIP I: THAT the signatories will ensure Canonist morals and principles are upheld and spread throughout the Attenlund and the Kongzem. II: THAT the signatories will strive to maintain their freedoms and rights as nobles. III: THAT new members, noble or otherwise, shall be permitted to join the Union through a majority vote of the three founding signatories. IV: THAT any insult against one signatory shall be treated as an insult against all, and will be dealt with accordingly. Article IV. ON DURATION I: THAT this Union shall remain in effect for no less than 15 (FIFTEEN) years, to be renewed or discontinued at that point through unanimous decision of the signatories. IV JOVEO MAAN, IV JOVEO EHR, 382 E.S. The Right Honorable, Jan Otto Kortrevich, Komit of Jerovitz, Vikomit of Krusev, Bossir of Karovia The Honorable, Isaak Amador, Vikomit of Aurveldt, Bossir of Mondstadt His Lordship, Hildebrand Mondblume, Bossir of Richtenberg

A certain Haesenie Lord wonders why only the Grand Maer of Karosgrad got a spepcial invite, and not the King of Haense. "Huh, seems like they did nie realize the Grand Maer does niet lead the state." He huffed, passing the invititation to one of his cousins.

dad come home I miss you

Haha this is depressing

@ImCookiie how was Ronaldo?

When are we having drinks

Proud of you guys, truly. Glad to see the foundations we worked on are finally put to use, keep the dream alive and make me proud. You guys got this

Maybe you should all stop clowning on a player who tries to make a genuine lore submission and is just not familiar with the formatting and process for doing such. @VeganNatureQueen I recommend you take a look at previous lore submissions if you need some examples of how these things should be implemented. What also helps, is talking to the story team if you need more direct help. They have a discord for various lore questions, if you need a more direct way to get in contact with them. https://discord.gg/vt8MaqN link for that right here!

"Vote Kortrevich" Said Jan Otto Kortrevich, after casting his votes!

THE COUNTY OF JEROVITZ 3rd of Vzmey and Hyff, 379 E.S.3 County of Jerovitz, Haense The stronghold of Jerovitz, situated upon the Attenlund mountain range Years had passed since the Siege of Krusev, the home of House Kortrevich. It was a brutal battle, which had left its mark on the then Viscount, Jan Otto. He realized he had failed to protect not only his home, but his family as a whole. A Viscount without usable land, a noble House with nothing but a titular title. The resolve of the Kortreviches however, was not easily broken. As Krusev lay in ruins, a family sprawled back to life within the streets of the Haeseni capital. Through tragedy, House Kortrevich found unity once again. Its members became a common sight throughout Karosgrad once again. Unquestioned loyalty and hard work eventually paid off, paving the way for the House to live up to its former glory once again. The Entrance to the County of Jerovitz Through The Lord’s Edict it was decided that the House of Kortrevich be granted the County of Jerovitz. After the fall of Krusev, plans for a new keep were started. The process was long and tiring, but rewarding nonetheless. After years without a proper home, House Kortrevich once again rose from the ashes of Krusev. It was deep within the Attenlund that they now found themselves, within their new home. The Church of Jerovitz, dedicated to Ven. Dame Primrose Kortrevich The stone walls of Jerovitz stand proud, watching over the Eastern frontiers of the Kingdom of Haense. The County does not only serve as a reminder that House Kortrevich stands strong once again, but as a monument, dedicated to honour the Patriarchs that came before Komit Jan Otto. In due time, the noble peers and citizenry of the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska should expect invitations to upcoming festivities and celebrations at the newly constructed Kortrevich stronghold.
