Talk:Giraud family
It's good to see clarification of House Giraud's status, but I am of the opinion the trial wasn't entirely clear about the end results. Particularly when Sebestyen asked about whether he could continue leading the House in its degraded, suspended state. There was never a blatant 'no' given and the Baron's reaction to the question gave the impression (to me, at least) that he had no quarrel with Sebestyen retaining the title of Lord.
Just my opinion, take it or leave it... It's all water under the bridge, any how. - Talli

It was fairly clear that The House is not 'stripped' of status:
Sebestyen asks, "Your Grace.. if I may ask about the House?"
Gyfford says, "The house is degraded and suspended."
Sebestyen asks, "So.. I am not released as Lord?"
Gyfford says, "I find you guilty of nothing sir."
Gyfford says, "But her house is suspended."
Sebestyen says, "Thank you, I will take it up in it's degraded and suspended status if you will allow it Your Grace."
Gyfford nods to Sebestyen.
What was unclear was what suspended and degraded means. Also unclear is what is required for redemption.
This has been asked and answered so many times now, it's like a bad cartoon. :D
The house was suspended, it doesn't exist anymore, and we're not officially recognizing any player-run houses which was decision handed down from the top, as well as SGMs. -- GM Jhustis
sus·pend (s-spnd) v. sus·pend·ed, sus·pend·ing, sus·pends v.tr. 1. To bar for a period from a privilege, office, or position, usually as a punishment: suspend a student from school. 2. To cause to stop for a period; interrupt: suspended the trial.
dis·solve (d-zlv) v. dis·solved, dis·solv·ing, dis·solves v.tr.
5. To bring to an end by or as if by breaking up; terminate.
There is a bit of difference in the definitions.
Again, GM Quarel or the SGM that is presumably Quarel's boss needs to weigh in on it one way or another. I am happy either way.
