The playerbase doesn't really seem to mind the implications?

Soooo if she's teaching 3 genin did we get 3 adoption slots? Presumably for our 3 academy kids?

I read their approval as heavily sarcastic. Let's do a quick check. Who else thinks that it's a bad idea given what the QMs have said?
Personally, I read Paper's approval as "Oh wow, the problems this will cause will be really fun for QMs to write! Heads up that the problems will be caused, but genuinely please do this.".

- Yes.

Ah, I misread the tone! Sorry about that!
What would y'all like the design of the estate to modeled after, since the Uchiha Layout carries unwanted implications?
IIRC, the Nara layout is pretty cool, and Ami had the former KEI rooms on the Uchiha Estate filled with artwork that improved productivity.

We should model after the Sarutobi. Jiraiya's mentor was Sarutobi Hiruzen, the God of Shinobi. We can afford to put respect on that name.

If it causes issues perhaps do not do it? Maybe?
Hi, sorry but I ended up stopping reading for a while and have not read too far past where I commented last. I will probably pick this quest up again soon, I just got pretty bored with the direction that it took. Nothing against the writing or where the original questors want the plot to go it just stopped interesting me. I enjoyed the open world and how the characters were developing there, the whole village arc really isn't interesting to me personally. Hope this answers your question.

I link-walked back into the archives and came across an interesting thread that got dropped: a while back, y'all created the Light Relay seal with the intention of using it to set up long-distance communication. Not that you have time for it right now what with the Conclave coming up, but it was an interesting idea that I figured I'd remind you of.

This sounds very good. I have a few thoughts. Is there an upper bound on the amount of light emitted? If we invent Hazo's Illuminator: Monstrously Bright, Ohsagewhy and put it up to an LR, would it then emit light of the same blinding quality? (NB: 'yes, there is some upper bound - we'll...

After further thought, this is fantastic for third parties to verify a spy as being one of ours. They have a HOWS set to some color they don't know, they can be a civilian even, and present it to a ninja with the corresponding relay seal - the ninja need not be informed in advance what color...

As I understand it, we stalled out there because our first experiment 'crank HOWS beyond red' failed horribly when Hazou concluded it was a sealing failure instead of an interesting unknown phenomenon. In all likelihood he would outright refuse to replicate the experiment, blocking us from giving him the idea that light exists beyond red.I link-walked back into the archives and came across an interesting thread that got dropped: a while back, y'all created the Light Relay seal with the intention of using it to set up long-distance communication.

But I did come up with another plausible route that circumvents this, a while ago! It goes something like this:
- We first ensure Hazou has the intuition that light is linear, which we can do by looking at rainbows and earthshaping a prism.
- Hazou looks through his telescope and idly wonders if it'd be possible to shift the colours forwards/backwards along the spectrum.
- Hazou creates a seal that does exactly that, shifting the wavelength of nearby light.
- When using this seal, Hazou notices that red/purple light still exist even when colours are shifted, just coming from different places than normal.
- With luck, Hazou then gains the intuition that light extends past red and purple, and we can revisit the HOWS experiment to replicate it, and then we can double-confirm it with infrared HOWS pointed at a Light Relay seal, and then climb that hill all the way up to radio wavelengths for long-distance communication.
What are the rules on omakes, and why was the thread not flooded with them the moment the soggoth was available for public contact?

There's no real rules on omakes. They're just one of the things that QMs really like to see and thus tend to give bonus XP for. As for why we don't see them all that often:
- Omakes are very spoon-intensive
- If you're too good at writing you're at risk of mysteriously transforming into a QM.

I have a mountain of omake ideas. I've affectionately called it the "omake pile" for easy searching reference.
Unfortunately: spoons and mental health.
In case @Inferno Vulpix 's very nice post wasn't clear. Visible spectrum light detecting is too difficult to be practical outside of an underground tunnel, (because the visible spectrum is noisy) and those are difficult to maintain, and only useful in niche situations.

Make the compound border and streets the lines of a massive seal that, once filled with the blood of our civilian sacrifices, will power up into a massive shaped explosion aimed directly at the Hagoromo compound.
