Third Scribe Summit — Review

Both meetings: Trygg thanked Myriam and Marcus for scheduling and hosting the summit, and thanked the presenters. Feedback was positive, describing the summit as informative and successful.

Morning meeting: Attendees praised the organization, variety, and focus on Scribe work. Having presentations available in advance helped when presenters could not attend. Trygg specifically thanked Kati for supplying her presentations, which he delivered in her absence. No specific changes for the next summit were recorded in the morning summary.

Evening meeting: Bea praised the months of preparation and described the gathering as creating a sense of community. Seth said he enjoyed the summit and learned from it. Participants proposed these improvements:

Jessika: Hold questions until the end or allow additional time. Questions during her lecture had forced her to shorten the prepared material.
Astary: Require presenters to arrange their own substitutes and list both names on the schedule.
Trygg: Ensure substitute presenters credit the original author.
Astary: Rehearse and shorten presentations to fit the allotted time.
Trygg: Remind attendees to respect speakers when interpretations of Gorean fiction differ.
Astary: Consider later or repeated lectures, including delivery by someone in another time zone.
Trygg: Consider a break followed by North American evening presentations, while accommodating European attendees and weekday work schedules.

Trygg agreed to preserve these lessons for next year’s summit planning.

⊰════════════════════════════⊱

Revised Monthly Meeting Format

Both meetings: Members supported meeting on the first Wednesday of each month, at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. SLT, with a volunteer-led discussion about a Scribe-related topic. A formal presentation would not be required.

Morning meeting: The proposal included:

Discussions about Scribe duties and practices across cities.
Topics generally requiring no advance approval.
Additional meetings when needed for summit or other event planning.
A notice from Trygg on the last Wednesday of each month requesting a volunteer host and topic.

Trygg planned to seek evening support before announcing the change.

Evening meeting: Trygg explained that arranging two meeting days each month had become too demanding. Evening participants supported the reduction, and Trygg confirmed that the new format would begin in November. Topics should be circulated a few days beforehand, and meetings would rotate among cities.

Hosting and discussion plans made in the evening:

Month	Plan	Status
November 2026	Astary volunteered to lead the discussion.	Volunteer identified; topic still to be prepared.
December 2026	Bea offered Valaris, and Trygg placed it on the schedule.	Local hosting arrangements need confirmation.
January 2027	Trygg suggested Turmus; Jessika agreed to consult its Head of Caste and Assistant Head of Caste.	Proposed; awaiting confirmation.

Under the agreed schedule, the next meeting day is November 4, 2026, with sessions at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. SLT.

[8:05 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Welcome to all of you to the regular monthly meeting of Scribe Caste of Gor*. Thre are three topics to discuss this morning, and I suspect that much of it will be OOC. So I am going to go OOC now and speak to you as group members and players. I would like to spend about 20 minutes on each topic, which are:

~ The 3rd Scribe Summit. Highlights and lessons learned.

~ Going forward: A revised view for the rest of 2026 and into January.

~ If we have time in the hour of our meeting we can discuss the mission statement and formalize it.

[8:06 AM] Cody (irkky): Nods in agreement to the proposed plan

[8:07 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I will be OOC for much of the meeting, as these meetings have generally been planning meetings, especially leading up to the Scribe Summit. so I will flip to ooc

[8:11 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay, once again I want to thank Myriam and Marcus for scheduling and hosting the summit. I think it went pretty well, and it was pretty well attended. I am grateful to those of you who presented at the summit and I thought that it was a reasonable success, if stressful.

[8:12 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): Yes, I was there

[8:12 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): I thought it was... informative

[8:13 AM] Cody (irkky): I attended a few lectures - it was my first visit and I was impressed with the organization and offerings.

[8:13 AM] Nuada Hawke-Xorius-Slade (nuada.soothsayer) is online.

[8:13 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Can you think of anything that we should have or could have done differently?

[8:13 AM] zCS # [Mod] Ramblaze Resident [Away] logged into the region.

[8:14 AM] Cody (irkky): Personally i wasn't there over several days to observe and get a feel...but the day I attended, it was informative with good variety of topics

[8:14 AM] William Carver is online.

[8:14 AM] Dexter Winters (sytheking1): i went . i was amazed on how some of this scribes did there lecture and how far advanced they were then me. i could never put on a presentation like them.

[8:15 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Yes, I was very impressed as well. And some of the presenters, like Kati here, provided us with their presentations just in case, and that saved us in many cases.

[8:16 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): I think the lectures were more scribe oriented

[8:18 AM] Kati Evans: Was sorry I could not present it myself.

[8:19 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): But your presentations were excellent, though I doubt I could do them justice

[8:19 AM] zCS # [Mod] Ramblaze Resident switched from [Away] to [RP].

[8:20 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Anyway, I am glad that it seemed to be enjoyed.

[8:20 AM] Kati Evans: You are to kind

[8:21 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Thank you Saku. Okay, if no one has any comments on the summit we will close that door for another year.

[8:21 AM] Aylla Howlingwind. (ayllac) is offline.

[8:22 AM] Duncan Willis is online.

[8:22 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I would like to present to you all my idea for a format going forward. Currently we meet on two Wednesdays a month in a different location. Most of the year, we don't have a topic or agenda in mind, except in the weeks leading up to the Scribe Summit. or the Sardar Fair.

[8:23 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I don't have the emotional bandwidth or time to arrange two meeting days per month, so this is what I would like to propose:

[8:23 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): - meet once a month, on the first Wednesday at 8 am and 5 pm SL time.

[8:24 AM] ๖̶ۜۜ͜ζ͜͡shar (shar.boxen) is online.

[8:24 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): - Have a volunteer lead a discussion topic related to scribing, sort of a how does it work in your city.

[8:25 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): - I think this will give everyone a change to learn, OOC'ly for the most part, what works or doesn't work in other cities.

[8:25 AM] William Carver is offline.

[8:26 AM] Sho (shoshawna.dharma) is online.

[8:26 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): - And it will be a mechanism to enjoy our own cities rather than be in Scribe meetings twice a month. We can increase the number if it's necessary when planning events.

[8:26 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): any thoughts?

[8:26 AM] Orion Pastorelli is online.

[8:27 AM] Artco (firstschoice) is online.

[8:27 AM] Jarek SpiritWeaver is offline.

[8:28 AM] Cody (irkky): Being new to all this I obviously can't compare it to the former format, but as a proposal, it sounds good ... seems to bring some freshness to the idea of "meetings."

[8:28 AM] Autumn Krigerand (autumneir): sounds like a good idea to me

[8:29 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Saku?

[8:29 AM] Artco (firstschoice) is offline.

[8:30 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): Sounds great. Does the subject need your approval?

[8:30 AM] Cody (irkky): ((apologies Saku - I didn't notice your hand raise before I posted))

[8:31 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Not really, Saku. I would expect the topic to be scribe related, but that is a broad canvas

[8:31 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): Yes, thank you.

[8:31 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We had a remarkable presentation by coin girl at the summit about scribe interaction with slaves.

[8:32 AM] Kati Evans: Oh those sound good

[8:32 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So I think that there is a lot of room for creativity. And I wouldn't be asking for a presentation, just a discussion topic and a volunteer to host

[8:33 AM] zCS # [Mod] Mi Yuequi switched from [OOC] to [Away].

[8:33 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So I will put up a notice in SCoG* on the last Wednesday of the month, asking for a host and a discussion topic for the following Wednesday, the first Wednesday of the month

[8:33 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): That is a way to keep the momentum going, and allow me an extra hour of sleep once a month

[8:34 AM] Kara Mantha is online.

[8:36 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Does anyone object to the plan?

[8:37 AM] Autumn Krigerand (autumneir): I have no objections

[8:37 AM] Cody (irkky): Shakes his head "no."

[8:37 AM] Brianna Malone (ayiranayo) is online.

[8:37 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): no

[8:38 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles "Okay let's try it. If we are heavily involved in the Sardar Fair planning this year we might want to meet more often, but the way the organizers are scheduling the fair, it might not be necessary to meet. The scribe summit will be a different story, but we have a whole year for that.

[8:41 AM] Ella De Wren Bade (elladewren) is online.

[8:42 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay, I will present this at the 5 pm meeting and announce.

[8:43 AM] Sho (shoshawna.dharma) is offline.

[8:44 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): This is the mission statement, some of which appears in the group description but in bullet point form for lack of space.

[8:44 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): The Scribe Caste of Gor* group's primary goal is that of exchange of information and educational opportunities to perpetuate and encourage the work of our caste. by providing a forum for announcements, educational opportunities such as this summit and to provide a forum for Scribes to collaborate on projects, seek advice from scholars, provide resources for learning or debate topics. Share stories or enjoy the familial ties of scribes through out Gor.

We remain independent and unaffiliated with any school or university, but all schools and organizations are welcome to use our resources to spread the word and work of the Caste of Scribes.

[8:47 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Saku?

[8:48 AM] Saku (mi.yuequi): If I had to offer one minor tweak, maybe explicitly mention mentorship or archiving/preserving records, since those are classic Scribe traditions that fit right alongside collaboration and learning. Otherwise, it captures everything we're about.

[17:06:11] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Welcome to all of you to the regular monthly meeting of Scribe Caste of Gor*. The attendance at the morning meeting was light too. So we can breeze through the meeting and get out before 6.

[17:07:46] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So I am going to go OOC now and speak to you as group members and players. I would like to spend about 20 minutes on each topic, which are:

~ The 3rd Scribe Summit. Highlights and lessons learned.

~ Going forward: A revised view for the rest of 2026 and into January.

~ If we have time in the hour of our meeting we can discuss the mission statement and formalize it.

[17:08:10] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): And the 20 minutes isn't that important

[17:08:49] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Bea! Welcome!

[17:08:57] Seth Stratten: "Greetings, Bea."

[17:08:59] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Please take a seat"

[17:09:08] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) smiles, "Tal everyone... sorry that I arrived late. ' nods and hurries to sit

[17:10:29] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Feel free to speak ooc'ly tonight. This is more of a wrap up meeting than a RP as well.

[17:10:46] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Once again I want to thank Myriam and Marcus for scheduling and hosting the summit. I think it went pretty well, and it was pretty well attended. I am grateful to those of you who presented at the summit and I thought that it was a reasonable success, if stressful.

[17:11:31] Seth Stratten: there were many interesting topics

[17:11:46] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I would like to explore successes and lessons learned. In other words, does anyone have any opinions on what we did right, and what we could do better?

[17:12:18] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) @

[17:13:00] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Go ahead Bea

[17:13:04] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): you can speak right up

[17:13:56] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) smiles, "I really enjoyed attending the Summit, even though I could only fully attend for one day since I was not able to for the first two days. But, before that... I remember the many meetings that went on maybe 5 or 6 months before the Summit. I believe they started in the Spring. All of the dedication and determination you all had in trying to put together the Summit as well as Presenters and everything is is very admirable. "

[17:16:51] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): @

[17:17:31] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): thank you Bea. Much appreciated. It was a lot. Planning and scheduling and confirming was not that easy, and frankly the scribe symposium two weeks before didn't help, but we did the best we could. Myriam was a wonder. Yes Jessika?

[17:19:16] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): I learned a valuable lesson ... either tell everybody to hold off questions until the end, or be prepared to face the consequences. I had my class prepped for an hour, but I allowed people to ask questions throughout it, and it severely cut into my time, causing me to have to seriously cut it short. I'll remember that for next year and either not allow questions or plan ahead with more time.

[17:21:15] Astary Pendragon: I would suggest that each speaker be made aware they must have a substitute to give their lecture if they can't make it. Not to rely on you to cover. It's their responsibility to cover themselves, not you.

[17:21:31] Seth Stratten: I agree

[17:22:04] Astary Pendragon: Two names should go into each spot, the main speaker and their sub.

[17:22:39] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Excellent idea, Jessika. and frankly, we should have announced that as well. Hold questions and comments to the end. So you do it and the person introducing you does it. Thank you Astary. That is a good idea too. Finding coverage.

[17:22:58] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): That is something we can do differently.

[17:23:21] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): And whoever presents needs to give proper credit for the work product.

[17:23:32] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): which we tried to do

[17:23:43] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) smiles while listening to all the ideas

[17:24:23] Astary Pendragon: @

[17:24:36] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Go ahead Astary

[17:25:03] Astary Pendragon: sorry lost my train of thought, I'll remember it I hope

[17:25:19] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Just jump in when you remember it

[17:25:22] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles

[17:25:43] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So, anyway. I thought it went fairly well. I am relieved that it is over, but I can't complain about the results. Does anyone have any other comments or suggestions?

[17:26:13] Astary Pendragon: OH yes, Each speaker needs to do a private run of their speach. And shorten it to fit into the time given and not run over.

[17:26:35] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes and the hold questions comment will help with that

[17:27:03] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I think you got a lot of pushback during your pitch, didn't you Astary? That wasted time if I recall

[17:28:00] Astary Pendragon: I remember someone saying (Trygg) that it was refreshing that a lecture ended on time. And it was thanks to holding questions until the end.

[17:28:50] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Good.. and also a reminder to consider that the speakers are to be respected, even if there is a disagreement about the interpretation of the fiction

[17:29:33] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay, anything else on the summit?

[17:30:26] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay we can wrap that topic for a year.

[17:30:59] Seth Stratten: i had a good time and learned things

[17:31:10] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) smiles and nods

[17:31:15] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): That's great Seth.

[17:31:20] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) @

[17:31:25] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Bea?

[17:31:36] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) It was fun seeing people gathered together and it felt like a community

[17:31:44] Astary Pendragon think that Seth will make a good Scribe one day *grins

[17:31:55] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes, it did, didn't it. A very nice weekend.

[17:32:08] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles at Astary

[17:32:24] Astary Pendragon: I have a question

[17:32:39] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): sure

[17:32:43] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Go ahead

[17:33:06] Astary Pendragon: jWhy does it have to start so early? Can't we start later or at leave have lectures given more than once so one can hear them all.

[17:33:34] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Another good point. It's tricky with an intercontinental caste

[17:33:46] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): 8 am is 5 pm in Europe

[17:34:01] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Noon is 9 pm and 2 pm is 11 pm

[17:34:41] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So maybe we break at a point and pick up with a couple of presentations in the N. American evening

[17:34:48] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Something to consider

[17:35:30] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): N Americans can't come on Friday if they work, so it is tricky to include everyone on weekday events.

[17:35:57] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We will keep a list of lessons learned and bring them up next year.

[17:36:02] Seth Stratten: i'm no scribe. i'm happy with my sleens

[17:36:08] Astary Pendragon: The speaker could even have someone in another time zone give the lecture for them at a different time.

[17:36:09] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We have the same issue at the Sardar Fair.

[17:36:27] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes, that is true, Astary.

[17:36:34] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) grins at Seth

[17:36:42] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Anything else?

[17:38:05] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay moving on. Next, I would like to present to you all my idea for a format going forward. Currently we meet on two Wednesdays a month twice, at 8 am and 5 pm, in a host city. Most of the year, we don't have a topic or agenda in mind, except in the weeks leading up to the Scribe Summit. or the Sardar Fair.

[17:38:47] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I don't have the emotional bandwidth or time to arrange two meeting days per month, so this is what I would like to propose: - meet once a month, on the first Wednesday at 8 am and 5 pm SL time.

[17:39:11] Astary Pendragon: I second that

[17:39:14] Seth Stratten: i agree

[17:39:15] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): I agree

[17:39:40] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) nods

[17:39:42] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): - Have a volunteer lead a discussion topic related to scribing, sort of a how does it work in your city or anything like that. It doesn't have to be a presentation, just a discussion, but we walk in with a topic

[17:40:00] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles. Thank you all

[17:40:19] Astary Pendragon: I would be happy to do that at the next meeting in a month.

[17:41:11] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Great. that is a great way to start it out. And we can travel from city to city.

[17:41:35] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Just a topic and we will give everyone a couple of days to consider the topic

[17:41:47] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): And have a chat

[17:41:59] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) I believe Valaris would be happy to host a meeting

[17:42:02] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I'm delighted

[17:42:12] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath): Though, since I am new there, I need to find the Scribe office

[17:42:20] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Very good. We will put Valaris down for December.

[17:42:59] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): With only one meeting a month, we can all keep in touch and be exchanging information without the stress of meeting so often.

[17:43:14] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Maybe Turmus will consider January?

[17:43:20] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles at Jessika

[17:46:11] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Okay the morning crew was agreeable. So let's start it with the November meeting.

[17:46:21] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): Hmm ... maybe

[17:46:38] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles Everyone is welcome to host.no pressure

[17:46:50] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): I'll ask our head of caste and assistant head of caste. We definitely have the space for it!

[17:47:03] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): good. that would be great.

[17:47:50] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I am not sure our level of participation in the En'Kara Sardar Fair next year, but it's actually less stressful to schedule than the summit

[17:48:31] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I also learned last year that it isn't necessary to have 24/7 presentations, in fact the other castes resent it.

[17:48:42] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So there won't be as much pressure there.

[17:48:54] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Anyway, I digress.

[17:49:00] Seth Stratten: Who's complaining?

[17:49:09] Seth Stratten: It's a lot of work you all do

[17:49:17] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I was warned by the organizers last year

[17:49:20] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): No biggie

[17:49:28] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Everyone is under pressure

[17:49:29] Seth Stratten: they can man up and produce their own caste fair thing

[17:49:50] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Final topic is the mission statement.

[17:50:13] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): This is the mission statement, some of which appears in the group description but in bullet point form for lack of space.

[17:50:28] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): The Scribe Caste of Gor* group's primary goal is that of exchange of information and educational opportunities to perpetuate and encourage the work of our caste. by providing a forum for announcements, educational opportunities such as this summit and to provide a forum for Scribes to collaborate on projects, seek advice from scholars, provide resources for learning or debate topics. Share stories or enjoy the familial ties of scribes through out Gor.

We remain independent and unaffiliated with any school or university, but all schools and organizations are welcome to use our resources to spread the word and work of the Caste of Scribes.

[17:50:34] Seth Stratten: you are the best at managing a meeting, trygg

[17:50:42] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Thank you Seth

[17:50:54] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Scribes are easier than merchants

[17:51:02] Seth Stratten: smiles

[17:51:47] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) nods in agreement to Seth

[17:51:50] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Wait a minute. Actually I was asked to add something at the meeting

[17:52:04] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): here is what we ended up with

[17:52:09] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): The Scribe Caste of Gor* group's primary goal is that of exchange of information and educational opportunities to perpetuate and encourage the work of our caste. by providing a forum for announcements, educational opportunities, such as this summit and to provide mentorship, preservation of records advice, and a forum for Scribes to collaborate on projects, seek advice from scholars, provide resources for learning or debate topics. Share stories or enjoy the familial ties of scribes throughout Gor.

We remain independent and unaffiliated with any school or university, but all schools and organizations are welcome to use our resources to spread the word and work of the Caste of Scribes.

[17:52:32] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We added mentorship and preservation of records advice

[17:53:25] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Anyone have any comments, additions, or corrections?

[17:53:29] Astary Pendragon: Sounds good

[17:53:46] Seth Stratten: i agree

[17:56:25] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): It's very much like we developed when the group started. I will hold it in a special folder so we can always pull it up if necessary

[17:57:38] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So, that is all I have. I will summon the scribes next month to a November meeting, and if there is nothing else we can adjourn

[17:58:12] Jessika Roberts (jessikaroberts): It was a good meeting, and it lasted less than an ahn. I second the motion.

[17:58:46] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) Thank you for the meeting. I hope everyone will have a great day

[17:58:49] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes, we all have our own cities that we like to play in

[17:59:06] Seth Stratten: "Safe paths, Bea."

[17:59:10] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So thank you all for coming and we will see each other next month

[17:59:16] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Be well Bea, Jessika

Scribe Caste of Gor Group Meeting Summary - September 16, 2026

Date: September 16, 2026

Time: 8:04–9:14 a.m. SLT

Primary topic: Final preparations for the Third Scribe Summit at Thunder Mountain

Summit Schedule

The Third Scribe Summit will begin on Friday, September 25, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. SLT with a welcome from Marcus and a blessing by Tariq. Presentations will follow, with the final presentations on Friday and Saturday scheduled for 4:00 p.m. SLT.

Several presenters have already been confirmed, including Skylar and Victoria. Kar may be asked to present a class about Ambassadors. Trygg and Astary also have presentations available if additional speakers are needed, and Myriam may be able to teach.

The remaining presentation openings discussed were:

Friday at 12:00 noon SLT
Saturday at 7:00 a.m. SLT
Saturday at 4:00 p.m. SLT
Sunday at 8:00 a.m. SLT

Anyone who knows someone interested in presenting should ask that person to contact Trygg. Trygg and Myriam plan to fill the remaining openings during the week so that a final schedule can be posted.

Presentation Changes and Coverage

BB asked to move her one-hour Sunday presentation from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. SLT. Myriam agreed to update the schedule. As a result, the Sunday program is expected to begin at 9:00 a.m. SLT.

Kati explained that she cannot presently give her scheduled presentation because the borrowed computer she is using does not run Second Life well enough to move between her lesson materials and a crowded meeting room. She gave permission for another person to present the lesson on her behalf.

Trygg confirmed that Kati will receive full credit for her work. Kati also gave permission for the presenter to remove material that would not make sense when delivered by someone else, such as her personal introduction, and to shorten the extra information if needed.

Myriam volunteered to serve as Kati's backup presenter and asked Kati to send her the lesson. However, Myriam later explained that she must attend a family birthday celebration on Saturday, September 26, and may be unavailable that day. Since Kati's presentation is scheduled for Saturday, Trygg agreed to obtain Kati's materials and provide backup coverage if necessary.

Hosting Arrangements

Myriam will host the Summit on Friday and Sunday. Because of the family birthday celebration, she cannot reliably host on Saturday. Trygg agreed to host throughout Saturday.

Speaker Confirmations

Myriam will check with Lion Euler to confirm whether he is still participating, since he has not been seen recently.

The presenter listed as “Coin girl” has not yet confirmed a presentation title. If no response is received by the end of the weekend, Myriam will remove her from the schedule. This would not leave a gap because the available 4:00 p.m. slot can be covered by another presenter if necessary.

Closing Events

The closing program is planned to include a one-hour performance by the Sheen dance troupe, followed by a ceremony and banquet coordinated by Khan Hermes. The dance troupe has been confirmed, and its stage will be on a sky platform accessible by teleport.

The banquet is scheduled for Sunday, September 27, 2026, at 12:00 noon SLT. Hermes has invited attendees to contribute entertainment such as a song, poem, story, dance, or another suitable performance. The requested contributions are creative performances—not Lindens or prims. Anyone who wishes to contribute should contact Khan Hermes (prinzensaft Resident).

The exact banquet location and setup responsibilities still need to be confirmed. Trygg will speak with Hermes about placing the banquet on the same sky platform as the dance performance and will report back. Sabayna noted that Hermes has agreed to collect and moderate the entertainment contributions, but the organizers still need to decide who will handle the physical setup.

Trygg also suggested contacting BilliAnn Braverman about contributing a story from the skald.

Decisions Made

Trygg will host the Summit throughout Saturday.
Myriam will host on Friday and Sunday.
BB's Sunday presentation will move to 10:00 a.m. SLT.
Someone else may present Kati's lesson, with Kati receiving full credit.
Trygg will provide backup coverage for Kati's Saturday lesson if Myriam is unavailable.
The Sheen dance troupe is confirmed for the closing program.
Banquet contributions are performances rather than money or objects.
The remaining schedule openings should be filled and the final schedule posted during the week.

Follow-Up Items

Kati: Send her lesson materials to Myriam and Trygg for presentation and backup coverage.
Myriam: Move BB's Sunday presentation to 10:00 a.m. SLT.
Myriam: Confirm Lion Euler's participation.
Myriam: Follow up with the unconfirmed presenter about her title and remove her if no response is received by the end of the weekend.
Trygg: Arrange or recruit speakers for the remaining open presentation times.
Trygg: Coordinate with Hermes about the banquet location and setup.
Trygg: Ask Hermes to contact BB or provide BB with the information she needs.
Organizers: Decide who will set up the banquet on the sky platform.
Interested performers: Contact Khan Hermes (prinzensaft Resident) with proposed contributions to the closing banquet.

Next Communication

This was the final regular meeting before the Summit. Further updates and schedule changes will be shared through group notices or direct messages.

SCoG*, September 2, 2026

Meeting Summary — Scribe Caste of Gor (SCoG*)

Wednesday, September 2, 2026 — 8:00 AM SLT
Location: Thunder Mountain

Attendees

Trygg Tyran
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus
Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius
Autumn Krigerand
Aldae Nagy
Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo
Kati Evans
BB Arliss
Bea Lael Usami

Summary

The meeting focused primarily on preparations for the upcoming Scribe Summit, September 25–27, 2026. The presentation schedule is filling well, although several remaining slots still need presenters. Trygg plans to verify each presenter's participation and scheduled time over the coming week so that the completed schedule can be announced.

The group discussed what should be included in the Summit's opening ceremony. Suggestions included an introduction by Marcus as the host and a possible blessing by an Initiate. There was disagreement over whether a blessing was appropriate, and the discussion became heated between Aldae and Marcus. Aldae subsequently left the meeting and stated that he would not attend the Scribe Summit. After further discussion, the group decided to forego an opening blessing this year, although the possibility of a closing blessing was mentioned.

Considerable discussion was devoted to the Summit's closing event. Ideas included an OOC dance, an IC banquet, a dance troupe performance, and short performances of songs, poetry, stories, or dances. The emerging plan was to combine several of these ideas: a short program of performances followed by a dance troupe, possibly in conjunction with a banquet. The closing program should remain relatively short, preferably no more than two hours.

Myriam agreed to contact dance troupe connections about performing at the closing event. Sabayna agreed to put out a call for singers, poets, storytellers, dancers, and others who might be interested in contributing a short performance.

Thunder Mountain will arrange access for SCoG members for the September 16 meeting and during the Summit, September 25–27. Marcus also agreed that temporary rezzing rights could be arranged for presenters who need them. A list of presenters requiring those permissions will need to be provided.

The revised Summit poster was distributed for members to place in their cities where permitted. Myriam also has banners, bunting, and other decorations available.

Near the end of the meeting, Trygg added Kati Evans's presentation, “From the Page to the Scene,” at 1:00 PM SLT on Saturday to the Summit schedule. Lion Euler's presentation still needs to be confirmed.

The group will continue filling the remaining presentation slots, with Trygg, Myriam, Kar, Astary, and possibly El among those who may help complete the program.

Decisions

The Summit will not open with an Initiate blessing this year.
The closing event will likely include short performances followed by a dance troupe, potentially combined with an IC banquet.
The closing festivities should not extend much beyond two hours.
SCoG members will receive access to Thunder Mountain for the September 16 meeting and Summit weekend.
Presenters who need temporary rezzing rights can be accommodated.
Kati Evans — “From the Page to the Scene” — Saturday at 1:00 PM SLT was added to the schedule.

Meeting Transcript

[08:05:10] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Very well. we can begin now. The attendance is disappointing, but perhaps it will pick up next time. One never knows how our regular meetings will draw."

[08:05:36] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Welcome to the regular bi-weekly meeting of Scribe Caste of Gor* I am Trygg Tyran, and I will be facilitating the meeting today. First I would like to thank Marcus Aurelius Antonius for allowing us to meet in his city, and in his beautiful learning center. Thank you Marcus, and to Myriam for greeting us today."

[08:09:03] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): Tal all together

[08:09:21] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "If I may direct your attention to the current schedule that Myriam has displayed. As you can see, in terms of scheduling we are doing quite well. We have four people including Myriam to schedule, and we should have all the time blocks filled. I think that we are presenting a reasonable array of scribe related topics. And when we schedule Kar, Myriam, Astary and myself, we should have a nice full conference. Tal Sabayna and welcome"

[08:09:25] Aldae Nagy: Tall Lady Sabayna

[08:09:31] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) Tal Lady Sabayna

[08:10:10] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Myriam, if you would, please leave the schedule in the room so that the people who attend the late meeting can also see it."

[08:10:27] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): *smiles*...and this year i didn't have to do a nearly full day in the middle - which is an improvement.

[08:12:16] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Yes, that is good, and we will need you to greet arrivals and do some introductions, which brings us to action item 1: I will need to verify the schedule with the presenters, to make sure that they are comfortable with the timing of their presentations."

[08:13:13] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Completing that, we will announce the summit to the three major groups: SCoG*, our group, SCoG, the other SCoG group, and Blue Caste group

[08:16:04] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "So, in terms of decision making, that leaves us with a few items. The first being the opening ceremony, or welcoming ceremony. I have some general ideas, but I would like to hear yours. Does anyone have any ideas for the opening of the summit?"

[08:17:31] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Sir Marcus should make an Introduction...*smiles*

[08:17:46] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): As it's his city....

[08:17:59] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): Blessed Melampus is not available, unfortunately, but perhaps could Blessed Tariq give a blessing.

[08:18:24] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): That could work....*smiles*

[08:18:28] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Welcome BB.

[08:18:33] Aldae Nagy: Where have you seen Gor is a religious planet?

[08:18:42] Aldae Nagy: We don't need to be blessed

[08:18:56] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Welcome to Thunder Mountain. We are honored in hosting the group

[08:19:11] Aldae Nagy: Stop those onlinisms, please

[08:19:34] Aldae Nagy: Just have a welcome speech

[08:19:59] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): So what are initates Aldae?

[08:20:24] Aldae Nagy: Good question, Myriam and you know what the Scribes think about them

[08:20:32] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) nods to Sabayna. "That's a nice idea. There is tension in the castes of Gor with the Initiates, certainly Aldae, and the initiates have their own legal system, but I am ambivalent as to whether we open with a blessing. What do the rest of you think?'

[08:22:08] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): It is not an onlinism, when the initiates do their work.

[08:23:13] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): "I don't know what harm it can do, as more than just scribes will hear it, the people of a city are usually involved with the opening ceremony... before we do the fun stuff, and anyone can attend the scribe summit, its not a closed door event even if we did do it behind closed doors - my opinion."

[08:23:16] Aldae Nagy: As Sir Marcus thinks that he can say I am not allowed to tell m thought, I think I have to leave. I won't attend the Scribes Summit. Thank you, Marcus for your rudeness

[08:23:28] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Aldae! no

[08:23:37] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Really, please sit down.

[08:23:39] Aldae Nagy looks at MArcus and rises his middle finger

[08:23:55] Aldae Nagy: For the other Free, I wish you well

[08:23:55] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): *shakes her head*

[08:23:57] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Wait

[08:26:16] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Lets continue please...

[08:28:13] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): It was just a suggestion, since there was a blessing at the beginning last year as well. But it doesn't have to happen if there is no consensus and some people have reservations about it.

[08:29:54] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): "There is tolerance... and then intolerance.." looks to Marcus, unfortunately he picks often the wrong point to stand upon".

[08:30:06] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires) smiles gently.

[08:31:40] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Yes, let's forego the blessing this year. Blessed Tariq has been under the weather anyway. Maybe a closing blessing. There are plenty of people who can do an introduction. We will table that for now.

[08:32:57] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Item 2 is the closing event. I am not much of an OOC dance guy, and so if we do an OOC dance, my participation will be limited, but if that is what the group wants, we should hunt up a deejay. Thoughts?"

[08:34:58] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Any thoughts on the closing event?

[08:36:30] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Well, I guess it comes down to do people usually attend those?

[08:37:04] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I don't know. Myriam, you are a veteran of these events. Do people usually attend closing OOC dances?

[08:40:50] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): Perhaps something in-character. A banquet, for instance, where short performances could be presented.

[08:40:55] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): To be honest i have never attended one

[08:41:37] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): That sounds like a plan

[08:41:50] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): hmmm.... Banquet hmm sounds interesting, smiles i know a lady with a long table lol

[08:41:52] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): So maybe a dance group?

[08:41:58] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): nods,

[08:42:29] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): Years ago, we once concluded a Sardar Fair with a banquet—back when it wasn't yet so large and didn't have so many participants.

[08:43:32] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) smiles as Kati enters. "Welcome Kati. We were just having a discussion of the closing event. So we have an IC dance, a dance troupe presentation, and a banquet on the table. I like those ideas. Let's combine the IC dance and banquet into one, if that is what the group decides.

[08:44:09] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Or if we go with a dance troupe, does anyone have any contacts with Sheen or Luminara? Are there others?"

[08:44:34] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): lol.... Are we talking black and white ball and banquet?

[08:45:32] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): I know the choreographer of one of the groups i can ask them

[08:46:22] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) @ Raises hand

[08:46:28] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes Bea?

[08:47:17] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) I know that the Scribe Summit is different from the En'kara Fair, but for that fair many people attended the closing ceremony; which was basically an ending to the fair and letting everyone know it is over and thanking them for their time type of thing'

[08:48:29] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes and we should do that just after the final presentation no matter what we do for a closing.

[08:49:35] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "I'm absolutely fine with whatever the group wants. All I would ask is that it not be too much work. Perhaps someone would take over that element of it?"

[08:52:04] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "In the meantime, Myriam, please contact your friend in the dance group and see it they are available on September 27 at about noon SL. Marcus, you have a space here that can accommodate a dance troupe production?"

[08:53:15] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): I have already and i have also contacted Hermes.

[08:54:55] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): At the banquet concluding the Se’Kara Fair (2017), everyone was invited to present a song, poem, dance, or story: "Please contact Neroli Ihnen if you wish to perform a song, story or dance that celebrates your city." A diverse program came together.

[08:54:55] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Next, we have the matter of access. I would like to ask that all members of SCoG be cleared for access at TM today, Wednesday September 16, and Friday Sept 25-Sunday Sept 27. I would appreciate that Marcus."

[08:56:22] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Will do

[08:56:38] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Thank you Marcus."

[08:58:02] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Sabayna, that is a lovely idea. So, would you like to see what you can come up with? Perhaps if you get people who are interested in that, and Myriam can book a dance troupe, that will be the closing. Maybe a short presentation of poetry and song, followed by the dance troupe?"

[08:58:32] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "People will be tired from the weekend and ready to log anyway. So we shouldn't go more than two hours."

[08:59:34] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): What do you think? Myriam? Sabayna?

[09:00:02] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): Unfortunately, I won't be able to participate because I'll be at a conference in real life at the same time. But putting out a call will surely generate some offers. It doesn't have to be anything long.

[09:03:52] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Very well. Thank you Sabayna. If you would put out the call in SCoG* and ask for interested people to contact me. We can do it, if there is any interest, before the dance program."

[09:04:36] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): I'd be happy to. I can certainly do that.

[09:06:12] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Thank you, Sabayna, and Myriam you will contact the dance troupe?"

[09:08:11] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): i will try no one is responding

[09:08:41] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): No rush Myriam. Keep at it and let me know the results.

[09:08:58] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We will come up with something."

[09:09:07] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) Are any decorations needed? I have a lot

[09:10:16] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): I don't think so, Bea, but thank you. One more issue for Marcus. Some of our presenters might need temporary rezzing rights during their presentations. You will be willing to grant that?

[09:10:28] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): i have banners etc to put up and bunting and so on :)

[09:10:37] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Yes we can arrange that too

[09:10:48] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): ust need to know who.

[09:11:05] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Also, here is the revised poster texture for each of you to put up at your cities if allowed.

[09:11:24] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Would you make a list so that we can plan for that?

[09:11:45] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): nods yes i saw that

[09:12:58] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Very well. We are about out of time. There is much more to consider. I would like to have a full schedule by next week so we can announce the schedule. I will verify participation and scheduling with the presenters and confirm, then I will announce. I think we still have the potential to do a successful conference that is of benefit to the scribing community.

[09:13:37] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "We will meet in two weeks time in this room on September 16.

[09:13:49] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): yes yes

[09:14:01] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): wonderful

[09:14:46] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): we should be closer to ready and this will be the last time to see the city, for after then we will likely be changing everything.

[09:16:12] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): So it will be exciting times.

[09:16:12] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays): The wall chart is already looking very good. You have managed to fill it very well over the last few weeks.

[09:16:57] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Yes Trygg has worked his magic, my personal life has somewhat been limiting my capacity to help... i hope it will settle.

[09:17:38] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Oh Myriam, we have one more event to add. Kati Evans at 1 pm on Saturday. 13:00:00 (1 pm) SL Time: From the Page to the Scene, (Kati Evans)

[09:19:59] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) smiled while listening about the event

[09:20:00] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Also, will you confirm Lion Euler's presentation?"

[09:23:54] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Anyway, we are out of time. I thank you all for coming, and we will see each other, hopefully ready to go, in two weeks."

[09:25:16] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Thank you again Marcus. Myriam, we will be in touch about schedule changes.

[09:25:39] Sabayna Kiseki no shukujo (tremlays) stands up and stretches: "Thank you for the interesting meeting. Have a good evening, everyone, and safe travels."

[09:25:46] Autumn Krigerand (autumneir): safe paths everyone, hope ayou all have an enjoyable day

[09:25:52] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): And thank you all for coming and for helping support the summit

[09:26:14] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): We will put out minutes after the 5 pm meeting.

[09:26:28] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): will do brother

[09:26:38] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): Thank you

[09:27:02] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Thankyou and you sister dear, and Lady Sabayna it is always a pleasure to see you and thankyou for your advice.

[09:27:50] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) "Greet Meeting Thankyou. Please take care everyone

[09:28:45] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Thankyou Lady Bea, take care please

[09:30:02] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): Trygg, you and i could cover these gaps if we needed, and i could rope Lady El in.

[09:30:17] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): She hasnt been here in a while.

[09:30:37] Myriam-Aliyah Aurelius Antonius (noirnyte.spires): "Safe Paths sister dear"

[09:37:14] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "I want to give Kar a chance to present, and I have one as does Astary. But yes, I would like El to present as well.

[09:38:16] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "Be well all."

Scribe Summit

The upcoming SCoG Scribe Summit will take place September 25–27, 2026, at Thunder Mountain*.

Trygg requested that the presentation schedule be completed by September 2 so the event can be promoted for approximately three weeks before the summit.

Numerous presentation slots remain available. Members were encouraged to volunteer personally and recruit knowledgeable presenters from their respective cities.

Presentation Guidelines

Presentations should generally relate to the work of the Scribes’ Caste, scholarship, education, or associated areas of Gorean knowledge.

Presentations should typically last one ahn, or approximately one hour.
Broader subjects may be given two ahns, or approximately two hours.
Longer presentations may be divided into two separate sessions.
Presenters should submit their preferred topics and availability to Trygg.
Necessary arrangements, including equipment and rezzing permissions, can be discussed with the organizers.
Presenters are asked to provide their presentation to the organizers in the unlikely event that the presenter can't attend at the last minute so the presentation can be made. We will return and delete the presentation afterward. Your work product will be safeguarded and credit will be given.

A list of previously presented subjects was distributed for inspiration, but members were advised that it should not limit their ideas.

Participation and Cooperation

Myriam emphasized that the summit is intended to bring together Scribes and scholars from across Gor, regardless of individual city allegiances or personal disagreements.

She encouraged participants to put aside disputes and focus on the sharing of knowledge and the interests of the Blue Caste.

Organizers stated that certain existing bans would be lifted for the three days of the summit to make broader participation possible.

Myriam specifically encouraged Lady Kati, Wynna, and Marcus to consider presenting material from their existing teaching notes.

Proposed Presentation by Hermes

Hermes proposed a presentation concerning Gorean botanical and geographical research, with possible discussion of:

Regional plant growth.
Sa-Tarna, rep, ka-la-na, grapes, and other trade crops.
Medicinal and culinary herbs.
Lumber trees and regional resources.
Animal habitats.
Food safety, including concerns about fish in tropical waters.
The relevance of these subjects to scholars, merchants, physicians, and city builders.

Trygg and Myriam both expressed support for the proposal.

Hermes indicated that he could present in two one-hour sessions and was generally available for start times between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. (SL time).

He also announced that his current Gorean botany course is expected to conclude on September 7, with a zoology course beginning the following week.

Materials Received

Lady Kati received:

Presenter Registration — SCoG Scribe Summit Sept 25–27*
List of Possible Topics for Scribe Summit 2026
Affiche Gorean Zoology 2

Posters advertising the summit will also be distributed for display in libraries and other appropriate locations.

Next Meeting

Date: Wednesday, September 2, 2026
Location: Thunder Mountain
Meeting options: 8 a.m. or 5 p.m. (SL time)

For Florida time, those meetings are at 11 a.m. or 8 p.m.

The meeting will allow participants to become familiar with Thunder Mountain before the summit.

Additional Note

After the meeting concluded, Kar requested that a thought of hers be added to the minutes. Her actual comment was not included in the provided conversation and will need to be obtained separately.

⊰════════════════════════════⊱

[8:20 AM] Wynna Aonifall (wynna): ah good!

[8:23 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Last week I sent a dispatch to the the membership asking for volunteers. The response was underwhelming as it tends to be a month out from an event. But now we can start working on filling up the schedule in earnest. If you know of subject matter experts at your city, please encourage them to volunteer to present."

[8:25 AM] Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (mathman.orellana): So is there a criteria for the subject and the length of the lesson?

[8:28 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): This is a group for across all Gor, this shouldnt be about allegiances, nonsense about cities, all are invited to participate for the good of All. There has been a lot of talk and a lot of silence follows, but in truth this group is about a bigger picture. It also showcases your abilities, Id invite all of you to consider if there is a subject you would like to discuss...non of the topics are off limit, and all are welcome to try.

[8:29 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): Looks at the lady stopping his scribbling and smiles nodding.

[8:30 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) nods in agreement. "Yes, generally the presentation should be about the caste of scribes and the work that we do. I do have a list of preveiously presented topics to serve as a reminder list. I will pass it to each of you now, and also the form to volunteer to present. Before we schedule you we will confirm the timeing.

[8:32 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): I know we have asked Marcus to host and there are those who are banned for reasons i wont go into here. These bans will be lifted for three days for the event. If anyone needs anything we can consider it, and we are more than happy to discuss what is needed, example Hermes' paper production required rez rights and equipment, i remember that clearly *smiles and nods to Hermes* "and it was most interesting."

[8:42 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): "I couldnt agree more, there is a reason SCoG* was created, it was to pull us together recognising we are 'scribes' above all else. We might not agree on somethings, but our caste 'in this place' is a priority and it should come before personal differences. We all as a matter of respect to the caste we join, are expected to do this... it is to share the knowledge, petty squabbles or differences should be put aside... please endeavour to consider your capability to do a lecture or to showcare your favourite or chosen topic and send to Trygg."

[8:44 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): "Others have been approached to participate individually but that is to the wider groups and specialisms".. "it would be good to have different voices."

[8:45 AM] Second Life: TryggTyran gave you List of Possible Topics for Scribe Summit 2026.

[8:45 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): raises his hand "May I make a proposal?"

[8:45 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Yes, Hermes

[8:45 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Please do

[8:46 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): Well, the caste of scribes is also the caste of scholars, and that is what I am personally interested in.

[8:46 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): We have a long-term research going on in Isfahan in Gorean biology. As some of you here present know, because you attended some lessons, I'm currently giving a course on Gorean botany, now in its 15th week, with an enthusiastic audience. I will terminate this course on September 7 and start the following one about Gorean zoology the week after.

You are all cordially invited to attend, or to just come and have a look if the course pleases you

[8:46 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): At the Scribe Summit, I would love to share some important geographical results of the Botanical research with repercussions for city architects, healers and merchants - but basically botanical research that should be interesting to any Gorean, and in particular to any scholar.

[8:46 AM] zCS # [Mod] Cai Windsor switched from [Away] to [RP].

[8:47 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): It concerns questions like what grows where, what can be produced where for export, like Sa-Tarna or Rep, Ka-la-na or grapes, healing and kitchen herbs, lumber trees and so on, but also which animals live where, and which products are safe for human use.

[8:47 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): In the tropical waters, for example, fish are often poisonous, which is why we around the Schendi cannot use Thassa fish for consumption - a matter that might also be of importance for a city like Teletus which is as close to the equator as Isfahan.

[8:48 AM] Megan Payne (flowergirlsdeath) is offline.

[8:48 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): This is on-going research and I'd be happy to enter into discussions with anyone interested.

If the organizers of the summit find it of interest, I might provide a two-hour talk (or twice an hour) where I resume the most important results and further research to be done.

[8:48 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): Done.

[8:48 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): raises and passes around a printed leaflet

[8:49 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): One for every person present

[8:49 AM] Second Life: prinzensaft gave you Affiche Gorean zoology 2.

[8:49 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran) nods. "I am familiar with your work, Hermes and I attend your sessions as time permits. I think that the topic would be a fine one for a session."

[8:50 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): I think that would be fascinating and could hold anyone's attention for that perod of time, please let Trygg know when you can do the talk and it will be scheduled. *grins*

[8:51 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): "As far was length of presentation, to address Marcus' point. We would like to keep the presentations to one ahn, or, if the subject is broad and all-encompassing, two ahns. You will notice that Victoria Forstander is presenting a part one and part two of here presentations."

[8:51 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): Thank you! I am quite flexible and can talk any time starting between 9 am and 2pm.

[8:51 AM] Hermes (prinzensaft): Well in that case, twice an ahn.

[8:52 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): Thank you Hermes. We will talk more on that outside of this meeting.

[8:54 AM] Bea Lael Usami (lifepath) accepts the scroll from Hermes and reads it

[8:55 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): Lady Wynna you are teaching now? Lady Kati and and Sir Marcus, you are all teaching, there was time only Abraham taught and only Abraham spoke, and did these events, with a few others who are present here today making their mark. Id invite you all to look to your notes, and see what you can come up with. This invite will go out across Gor...and we want voices 'yours' to be heard and seen to be heard, please consider participating.

[8:56 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): "it can do you no harm...only you will gain."...

[8:56 AM] Trygg Tyran (tryggtyran): So, the task ahead is to recruit and schedule presenters, send out the posters.

[8:57 AM] Myriam-Aliyah Krigerand (noirnyte.spires): nods, "hopefully".
