No, like, really REALLY end. The Year of Fire is upon us & there’s a lot of rumours around at the moment. Will each & every vampire die? Is the Wyrm going to triumph, & Fomorians wipe us all out? Will the Malkavians go even more barking than normal & the Tremere suddenly start to loosen up a bit & have fun? No one knows, but we can tell you this. It’s going to be one hell of a year in the World of Darkness. Inside we have the low down on the Year of Fire & how it’s going to affect the game from Bill Sherman, the Master Story Teller for the Camarilla. There’s also descriptions of most of the Irish games & details on where & when they’re on, for those of you who want to travel around a little & get your characters into dangerous situations in whole new areas. If you can’t afford the trainfare, check out our guide to MIRC & the e-mail lists. We’ve also got a lot of in character articles, an Agony Aunt column, a complete rundown on what’s been happening in Ireland in character for the last few months, & what I can only hope is a humorous article on how to psych out your opponents & triumph at rock / paper / scissors. I worry about you lot sometimes… If there’s anything else you’d like to see, just let me know & I’ll try & get it in the next one. If you want to send in any articles or artwork for the Reliquary, mail them to [email protected] or post to 358 Blarney Street, Cork. We will review all submissions & anything that makes it in will get prestige. Most stuff should make it in, unless it’s dodgy Werewolf porn or something (eugh… furry), so feel free to mail me whatever you want. If you want to volunteer to help, or think that you can do a better job, by all means mail me! In the meantime, enjoy the Reliquary & enjoy the game.

I mean, really… OVERVIEW & AGM Between the National Game in June, & what felt like a Regional every other weekend, it’s been a fairly long & hectic Summer for Cam games. There are Camarilla Games in Ireland in five cities, Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Galway & Waterford, & all of them have seen an increase in membership & games over the last few months. · Cork : Vampire (Cam Anarch), Werewolf, Changeling & Vampire (Sabbat) · Dublin : Vampire (Cam Anarch), Werewolf · Limerick : Werewolf, Vampire (Cam Anarch) · Galway : Changeling, Vampire (Cam Anarch) · Waterford : Vampire (Cam Anarch) The Cork games takes place on Mondays upstairs from 8pm in the Franciscan Well brewery on North Mall. Mail [email protected] if you need more details. The Dublin games are a little more erratic due to venue problems but tends towards Sunday nights, with Vampire now running on the last Monday of the month in upstairs in the Gasworks, over Frasier's of O'Connell Street. Again, details these games are generally notified to the Irish OOC list, or you can contact Silja, the new Dublin DC, at [email protected] Galway games remain elusive & your best bet would be to contact Kris Crofts at [email protected] to find out where & when the games are on. They generally tend to be at weekends, & will accommodate visiting players quite happily provided that they agree to bring munchies. For those of you who want to head to Limerick, game times & places can be variable so the best thing to do would be contact Will Reidy at [email protected]. For Waterford, ask Ceire at [email protected] If you are planning on heading to a game in another city, it’s a good idea to submit a character sheet to the Story Teller in advance so they can note any relevant details & hopefully, plan to have your character included in the plot. Please remember that the Officers are only human & may not be in a position to check their mail daily, so allow a few days for them to respond to communications.

Facebook, Myspace, Skype, Twitter, WhatsApp und YouTube produzieren große Mengen an Daten - ideal für Analysen. Automatisierte Tools für die Diskursanalyse verarbeiten diese enormen Mengen an computervermittelten Diskursen schnell. Diese Dissertation beschreibt die Entwicklung und Struktur einer Software- Architektur für ein automatisiertes Tool, das computervermittelte Diskurse analysiert, um die Frage “Wer kommuniziert mit wem?” zu jedem Zeitpunkt zu beantworten. Die Zuweisung von Empfängern zu jeder einzelnen Nachricht ist ein wichtiger Schritt. Direkte Adressierung hilft, wird aber nicht in jeder Nachricht verwendet. Populäre Kommunikationsmodelle und die am weitesten verbreiteten CvK-Systeme werden untersucht. Das zugrunde liegende Kommunikationsmodell verdeutlicht die wesentlichen Elemente von CvK und zeigt, wie diese Kommunikation
