looking at the nutrition guide posts again, and you say that the clans' territories are bigger than one might think.... how big do you imagine they might be? the book maps always make them seem smaller than they probably actually are due to art scaling
There is no way to give a perfect number, because productivity of land depends a lot more on what's on it rather than raw size. An old-growth oak forest will have more squirrels in an acre than a sitka spruce plantation will in miles.
But this is an aerial photo of Peng Chau island, which is a landform notable for being almost EXACTLY 1 square kilometer.
Tumblr media
That's 10 million square feet, for those of us burdened by imperial, and 247 acres, for... farmers idk. Or, 100 hecatares for those who are aware that most UK nature reserves measure their land in hecs.
(does this seem big? it's not. this is merely two 18-hole golf courses. or maybe we should destroy all golf courses. who knows :P)
According to the John Muir Trust, which researches red deer density and conversation, 1 square kilometer can sustainably support 5 red deer; more deer than that and they will begin to damage the environment. Britain is so ecologically devastated that the deer density is more like 10 to 1, but this is what apex predators like boars, lynxes, and wolves are SUPPOSED to be for.
(Remember: the ratio of 5:1 is still an average. The TYPE of land is going to matter A LOT MORE than the raw size.)
So if you're asking me, who has ruled that the White Hart/Forest Territory has an entire herd of red deer which hunters come to shoot at, I'd say the area was at least 3 square kilometers. Enough for a sustainable herd of 15 deer.
(But I imagine the Windovers sometimes toss hay out at them, to sustain a pretty sizeable herd. The map names the WindClan territory the "Windover Moor" so I imagine they actually own the majority of the area. I also write the entire White Hart being MUCH larger than the minimum 3 sKM, more like 10 sKM counting all the territories put together. BUT I don't think about it too much-- I just know it's not a tiny little backyard area.)
(Also Sanctuary Lake is even larger.)

Watching the play ep of Jentry Chau!!
Stella my GIIIIIRLLL YES!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟 We love a studious, multilingual queen!!! 👑 I was disappointed she wasn't there for most of the last big battle, so it's gratifying that she's taking down these troublemakers mostly by herself 🥰
Honestly feel kind of bad for the other girl Michael was seeing...😢 it's not her fault he has baggage!! d: tbh I was kinda confused about the breakup anyway??? Like Jentry was like, "I'm not comfortable with you coming w me to demon hell prison, (filled w demons) to break out a known and dangerous demon criminal", and Michael was like, "i guess we can't be together then 😔" ???
Actually, maybe it was more like Jentry was saying, "hey you shouldn't be around me bc crazy shit keeps happening and people are being killed." That seems to be how Michael interpreted it, given that he says, "you broke up with me".
Cause I feel like not wanting to take him to Diyu was pretty reasonable of her, but he HAS been doing okay against demons in their realm! And couldn't he get training from Gugu and Moonie? (Assuming they're not... indisposed.) I don't THINK either of them, or Peng, had innate powers to begin with, right? Like, they're just knowledge and experienced, and get their hands on powerful artifacts abs stuff. Michael already HAS his own powers!
Jentry's powered-up form kicks ass, btw. It's giving... anime!lavagirl lol 💥🔥
Also... can't she just portal between Seoul and Texas? 👀

Jentry Chau vs. the Underworld...
Man, what a GREAT series. I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish, and I'd like to see a second season!
Like, do Michael's parents know about his visions, and where did they come from? Will we see more of Solar Tang? What other possible threats will the characters face? What will become of Peng? Is there a possible romance between Tokki and Stella????
I've seen fans also express they want to see Kit return, and... I kinda agree. His sacrifice will not be in vain, but he deserved better honestly.

Novidades e Mudanças
Reforma finalizada e viemos apresentar a vocês algumas das mudanças programadas e já executadas para nossa central e forma de jogo!
Primeiramente gostaríamos de agradecer os feedbacks positivos e também os pontos destacados para melhora, buscamos sempre tornar a Soundwave um local confortável para cada participante. Logo em seguida informamos os detalhes que valem a pena recapitular dessa mudança para Hong Kong e o que temos visto que não está tão claro entre vocês.
Sobre a disposição e ambientação do Festival:
Pós reforma, criamos a página ambiente, que já está linkada em nosso nav, e contém todos os detalhes que antes não haviam sido especificados sobre a estrutura total do nosso festival.
Alguns pontos detalhados e já tratados com vocês são sobre as salas de ensaios, estúdios e o museu de exposição, os quais estamos organizando o agendamento de uso para preencher ainda mais os dias dos personagens e imersão.
Além disso, para artistas foi solicitado a definição do horário de trabalho conforme acharem melhor individualmente para trabalharmos em cima da ideia da atuação deles fora dos dias de show.
HONG KONG:
Em nosso novo local, o festival está localizado em um campo próximo ao Pier Ferrys de Central Hong Kong. Todas as embarcações de moradias da staff foram autorizadas a ficarem atracadas no Victoria Harbour - que pega toda a lateral do ambiente Soundwave em área aquática - enquanto os piers de domínio público, seguem abaixo suas funções e destinos, saindo deles:
Píer 1: Governo de Hong Kong Píer 2: Ilha do Parque Píer 3: Baía da Descoberta Píer 4: Ilha Lamma, com o cais oeste indo para Sok Kwu Wan e o cais leste para Yung Shue Wan. Píer 5: Cheung Chau Píer 6: Píer oeste: Peng Chau + Píer leste: Mui Wo Píer 7: Serviço Star Ferry para Tsim Sha Tsui Píer 8: Museu Marítimo de Hong Kong e serviço de ferry Fortune para Hung Hom Píer 9: Píer Público Píer 10: Píer Público
Obs.: É possível visualizar melhor toda a disposição e ambientação já apresentadas sobre Hong Kong acessando essa pasta no drive da moderação com o apanhado de fotos do local.
Jet lag? Nem tanto, mas uma breve confusão pode acontecer. A diferença horária entre Coréia do Sul e Hong Kong é de 1 hora! A nova localidade começa o dia 1h mais cedo do que o costume do ambiente anterior.
Sobre jogabilidade e shows:
Foi debatido entre a moderação e resolvemos aplicar a ideia de shows serem executados pelo Discord; sendo assim, fica opcional a sinalização de hcs em tempo real em forma de thread na timeline, já que o período de duração para cada show pode ser acompanhado ouvindo simultaneamente a playlist disponibilizada por cada banda, que deve ser executada no horário do show de cada banda no canal disponibilizado.
Ainda contaremos com a postagem das setlists, que é parte visual da interação dos personagens e também vale pontos, e quaisquer formas de ilustrar acontecimentos de palco são permitidas, apenas são destacadas como opcionais para facilitar o jogo em si.
A contagem de pontos terá continuidade, mas informamos que cada anúncio de show oficial tem em ooc a solicitação do que vale pontos naquele momento. O material entregue também teve um novo balanço de pontuação, que será informado no post oficial da próxima semana. Nós da moderação Soundwave achamos por bem valorizar propostas que integram os personagens e recompensá-las com mais pontos do que, por exemplo, um pov individual.
Outro ponto debatido foi sobre, com nosso ritmo de jogo atual, o activy check, que será realizado pela moderação uma vez por semana às quartas-feiras; considerando os pedidos de hiatus e rotina de players, estaremos aumentando também o prazo para o máximo aceito por essa equipe, que será de 5 dias. Sendo assim, consequentemente, após o sexto dia de inatividade já entram automaticamente na lista de AC e saem todos na quarta-feira seguinte.
Sobre vagas:
A partir da data de hoje não estaremos aceitando mais aplicações para as vagas de novos Artistas. Estaremos trabalhando com os que temos como de costume, temos projetos que incluem essas vagas, mas não estaremos incluindo novos personagens nessa dinâmica em si.
Em contrapartida, para os próximos dias estaremos decidindo a quantidade de vagas de SOLISTAS que serão adicionados em nossa line up e que foram sondados com vocês através dos formulários de feedback. Essas vagas estarão disponíveis para reserva após o anúncio oficial, mas já fazem parte da nossa jogabilidade.
Também houve um processo de alteração de quantidade total de vagas em algumas bandas que há um tempo contavam com rotatividade nelas, todas conversadas com players antes da decisão e que, agora, encontram-se com melhor funcionamento de dinâmica.
Outro ponto efetuado na nossa reforma é que a masterlist já encontra-se disponível em nossa navegação!

lignes droites et fermeté
Balade nocturne. à 23 heures, les rues sont vides. Les chiens sont endormis, les oiseaux aussi, on n’entend que le vent qui passe entre les feuilles des arbres, les aiguilles des pins. Le flic floc de l’eau contre la digue et les bateaux amarrés.
Je marche vers le nord, vers la petite île de Tai Lei et le pont qui la relie à Peng Chau, ce pont sur lequel on trouve toujours des pêcheurs à la ligne. Qui s’y trouve en plein milieu de la nuit ? Je ne cesse de m’arrêter sur le chemin pour capturer des images de tout ce qu’on y trouve. Ce pan de côte, versant ouest de l’île, extraordinairement rectiligne est un lieu intéressant. Dans les années 1970, c’est là que se situaient la majorité des usines qui fabriquaient de tout - de la pâte de crevette, des allumettes exportées jusqu’au Brésil, du bois, des tuyaux qui approvisionneraient plus tard Hong Kong en eau potable chinoise. Il y avait aussi des maisons sur pilotis, qui abritaient chacune plusieurs familles. À cette époque la côte était encore sinueuse. Dans les années 1980, un plan de poldérisation prévu pour le développement de ces usines s’est transformé : on ferait du logement, des logements sociaux d’abord pour reloger tous les habitants de ces demeures fragiles, et puis des logements plus luxueux - ça, c’est bien plus tard, à partir des années 2000. La poldérisation on s’imagine toujours de grands plans pour construire des îles artificielles, “réclamer” (reclaim) des territoires imaginaires sur une mer trop encombrante entre deux pans de ville qui veulent être connectés, vite, vite, et poursuivre la course au mouvement incessant. Mais la poldérisation n’est pas que sur grande échelle, pas que pour les CBDs, pas que pour les riches - la poldérisation est démocratique, elle est pour tous, pour les pauvres aussi, pour les îles oubliées aussi.
La poldérisation augure le développement ; la poldérisation c’est le développement, l’entrée des territoires dans le monde connecté, le monde de flux tendus. La poldérisation a donc touché Peng Chau a plusieurs reprises. Nord, Sud, Est, Ouest. De petites touches ici et là, retouches sur un visage un peu trop ridé et flasque - on retend tout ça, une ligne bien droite pour redonner du tonus, une base de stabilité pour maintenir ce fer à cheval qui semble tenir dans un dangereux équilibre, prêt à se renverser au moindre typhon. On ne fait pas confiance à ce genre de lignes accidentées. Même la petite île de Tai Lei a eu droit à ses retouches propres - il faut dire que marge dans la marge, elle offrait un terrain propice à toutes ces infrastructures qu’on aime cacher - électricité, fourrière, embarcadère pour déchets, pour gaz… Petite mais dense ! Ça, c’est pour les irrégularités qui choquent à l’oeil du satellite.
Quand l’administrateur s’est baladé sur l’île, quand il a débarqué sur un ponton frêle, qu’il a sauté sur un quai plein de vie, sans lignes, queues, silence, mais au contraire plein de cris, d’appels, de marchandises à peine débarquées déjà vendues, d’enfants courant, assis, dormant; lui l’administrateur, a du avoir des haut-le-coeur. Des vues pleines de gens, de désordres, des maisons qui se mêlent aux paysages, aux usines, aux fermes, qui se déversent sur la mer, travail repos loisir tous emmêlés dans un imbroglio de vie qui fait honte à la modernité - peut-être que l’administrateur et tous ceux qui lui ont succédé avec leurs belles chemises remontées aux coudes, leurs plans d’urbanisme pleins d’espoir, peut-être se sont-ils dit que, finalement, il vaudrait mieux attendre un peu avant de voir ce territoire totalement connecté à la ville - attendre que les petites touches d’ordre et de modernité éclaircissent un peu ce paysage. Un ferry par heure c’était déjà suffisant pour le moment - pour le moment, laissons cette île en marge de l’histoire hong-kongaise - on ne montre pas ses brouillons.
Tumblr media
Et donc les administrateurs ont continué leurs visites pleines de haut-le-coeur devant ces terrains discontinus, des logements qui s’ouvraient sur le sable des plages. Pas d’espace pour le public, pas de zones où le piéton puisse flâner allègrement, l’esprit tranquille. Il faut des zones tampon, des zones de transition. Il faut laisser passer l’air et chasser cet étouffement dans lequel se mêle fumées, calcaire, reflux marins, touches de crevettes séchées au soleil, cochons et volailles qui courent en plein air. L’administrateur n’a pas dû aimer la plage à Tong Wan - il a décidé qu’on devrait y mettre une promenade, un espace où se reposer, une aire de barbecue même !, pour enjoliver cette monotonie insulaire… Idem pour Nam Wan - des bâtiments trop près de la mer, à chaque typhon ça déborde, ça inonde, ça tue… Une petite touche de poldérisation pour éloigner la mer - protéger les populations. On y cachera l’électricité, les eaux propres et usées. On surplombera d’arbres, de balades pavées, de bancs pour s’arrêter - ça pourrait même être romantique avec un coucher de soleil sur Lantau - Peng Chau prend des airs de ‘Sunset Boulevard’ s’imaginent-ils dans un fou-rire maladif et hautement transmissible ; idée folle, impensable ! S’ils savaient…
Retour à 2022, à flâner, la nuit, sur ces lignes épurées. Propres, maintenant que les usines ont disparu et été remplacées par de petites gated communities bien propres qui élèvent le ‘standing’ de Peng Chau. 60 ans plus tard, je flâne et exauce le rêve du planificateur - malgré moi...

So we can all agree that Jentry going back to Zhong was out of left field, right?
She was generally calm and mature when her "parents" were explaining things to her and when she talked to Gugu after closing the portal. Then Gugu leaves and all of a sudden she wants to break them out of ghost jail? No build up, no plan, no connection to her current goals. All we got was a throwaway line about wishing they could be with her, and that's it. The sequence of events before this made me super excited about the direction Jentry's character was going in and then it was all flipped on a dime. And then tying that ham-fisted scene to ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REVEALS OF THE SERIES took away the impact of that scene. Because the scene of the reveal WAS impactful on its own, but I was still reeling from Jentry's sudden change of motivation. We were ROBBED of a well-placed reveal and that's going to have a negative impact on the ENTIRE rest of the series
