Dynamic Rüd - 24 December 2025

It's a little-known fact that Rudolph is the official minute-taker for all meetings of Santa's Senate. Lengthy debates and weighty decisions are at the core of each of these meetings, and in an effort to help the elves stay on top of what's happening, the NPIT team developed the Dynamic Rudolph (or Dynamic Rüd for short). This groundbreaking system provides real-time updates of Santa's agenda and helps the elves follow what's happened, what's currently being discussed on the Workshop Floor, and what's left on the agenda. We've been able to source a screenshot of one of the more recent versions of the Dynamic Rüd and have official North Pole permission to share it here.
