Description	Stalkers of the Gate will now create portals large enough to accommodate themselves, followers and friends. This incurs a slight cost for the larger portal but is generally considered worth it.
Result	Sensical.
Reason	It makes sense that a stalker would be able to actually use their own portals.
Projects	Stalkers of the Gate
Version	not updated
Rating	Rate "Stalkers portal sizing"

Description	Modified the Wild Talent concentration model so that OOC actions (like 'tell' and 'reply' and talking on 'ooc' and 'newbie') should not break concentration. I am dubious of how well this will coexist with aliases, so use aliases with it at your own risk.
Result	Can do OOC actions without breaking WT concentration.
Reason	They're OOC.
Projects	Wild Talents
Version	not updated
Rating	Rate "allowed OOC actions in wild talent concentration"

Description	Added effects from the tenacity and discipline skills to the process interruption resistance calculation (what determines how well you're able to resist things like having spellcasting interrupted by damage).
Result	Tenacity and discipline affect process interruption resistance. Concentration is still primary for the purpose, though.
Reason	They should.
Version	revision incremented to Ain Soph 2.3.163
Rating	Rate "added tenacity + discipline to process interrupt resistance"

Description	Made it so that the Ordo Ignis Aeternis, Ordo Zephyrius Mutatoris, and Traveler extended spellcasting (invocation, in the Travelers' case) process allow the damage, pain, and pleasure interruption events (plus the combat event, for the Travelers) can be resisted by your effective concentration skill.
Result	You can overcome events that would interrupt an extended cast by means of your concentration skill.
Reason	Less fragile spellcasting, character development angle becomes more relevant.
Projects	Ordo Ignis Aeternis, Ordo Zephyrius Mutatoris, Travelers
Version	not updated
Rating	Rate "OIA, OZM, Traveler extended cast tweak"

Type	content bug fix
By	Chaos
When	Mar 15 2010 12:18 AM
Description	Fixed the Brotherhood of Wine and Song tavern hop power (allowing, for the moment, a concept of "fixing" it that allows it to continue existing) so that it brings any followers in the room with you.
Result	Tavern hop less lame.
Reason	Non-lameness, at least as much as we can have while 'tavern hop' still exists.
Projects	Brotherhood of Wine and Song
Version	not updated
Rating	Rate "made BoWaS tavern hop bring followers"

Type	lib bug fix

When	Mar 14 2010 5:40 PM
Description	The way weapon degradation was written, the different weapon "features" (damage, accuracy, pain infliction, etc.) were multiplied by a factor that got smaller as the weapon got more damaged. In the case where the feature value was negative (for example, the accuracy of larger weapons), this actually wound up meaning that the weapon's performance *improved* as it was damaged. Fixed this by making negative features get larger where positive factors get smaller.
Result	No more of damaged greatswords hitting better.
Reason	De-nonsensicalification.
Version	not updated
Rating	Rate "fixed weapon degradation with respect to negative features"

Description	Changed Padekki from wandering the entire universe utterly at random to setting up shop outside of settlements (outside so that the local guards don't get on his case about any wee accidents).
Result	Padekki acts in a somewhat sensical fashion given his objectives.
Reason	See result.
