	In addition, when a character has almost reached level 20, they will be required to confirm that their skills are set to their desired values. The character will not be able to earn any additional experience until they have given this confirmation.

			As an addendum to the previous statement, you can be unceremoniously swept into that Limbo room. But once you've completed the SKILLS CONFIRM, you should be able to either type OUT or GO OUT and be put back into the game. The room itself isn't all that clear on that point since there's no actual room description when you type LOOK.

	Skill migrations are tracked over a 30-day period. Throughout that 30-day period, ~~a character~~ a character begins unlearning skills at a somewhat reasonable rate, which soon tapers off. Skill points are slowly untrained on a migration [[pulse]], which happens once every 30 seconds. Since a character only migrates points on a migration pulse, no points are migrated when the character is not logged in.		Skill migrations are tracked over a 30-day period.

Gift of Oleani: change to LST

	===Gift of Oleani===		===Gift of Oleani===
			{{#section:Gift of Oleani\|GoO}}
	If a character activates a [[Gift of Oleani]] after he has migrated some skills, (up to?) 60 training points will be subtracted from the total number of points he has migrated. If the character has progressed into one of the slower migration rates, this will hopefully bump him back to a faster category.
	*For optimal migration speed, the Gift of Oleani should be activated immediately after crossing the 60 TP threshold.
	*The farther a character has progressed past 60 TPs, the less effect the Gift of Oleani will have on migration rate. If a character has already migrated over 140 training points in a 30-day period, the Gift of Oleani would have no effect on his migration rate, and thus would be wasted.
