33f underwater expedition leader conducts and finishes m
« on: December 20, 2007, 09:57:00 pm »

My expedition leader was meeting with the first liason in the early game.  They were standing near a channel.  I bridged the channel temporarily to allow access to a piece of land to clear.  The meeting continued, when I had the land cleared I marked the grate for removal.  For some reason the meeting moved out onto the grate while the removal job took place.  The expedition leader fell in the channel of 7/7 water while the liason continued the meeting.  Instead of drowning he just sat there.  I waited a while then I dug a stairs down into the water.  When the meeting ended the e.l. walked right out as if nothing happened, but the liason jumped in.  Then the next meeting (I suppose each phase of the total liason interaction is a seperate meeting, first there's the agreement on imports, then exports, etc.)  The liason successfully walked out after the next phase of meeting ended.  Nobody drowned.

I suppose they should stop the meeting.  Did either of them have swimming skill?

dwarven negotiations.
your EL says, 'I want x, y, and z, and i'll pay xx for it.
the liason grabs the EL by the legs and dunks him in a nearby channel.
When he pulls him back out, the liason says, 'You'll pay xxxx for it' and the EL agrees.
Then they switch roles.

Thanks, I was able to confirm that the Expedition Leader was a swimmer after the fact, but I wasn't able to confirm anything about the Trade Rep.

I suppose he was just a swimmer by seren "dip" ity?
