Some people are receiving error messages after updating to 2.4, even though the server has been similarly upgraded. PLEASE be patient, there are a lot of bugs to work out.

Once there is a fix for this problem, we will change this message to say so. In the meantime, just relax and find some fun time killers. If you don't feel like leaving the house, I suggest catching up on Looking For Group, Girl Genius, Penny Arcade, Ding!, and other quality webcomics.

The server will be coming down tonight at midnight for updates and maintenance. Among the updates includes 2.4 support, or at least implementing it and testing it. If everything goes well, and things work fairly normally, I will post a success reply here.

The GM staff is currently revamping how we are handling titles, as the idea was liked by a number of players, but due to various reasons it never really got very far.

As such, certain things are happening:

1. The players responsible for certain classes are flipping around, and some classes that had no interest are getting scratched out. At some point we'll be remaking the Information thread on who is leading what, and noting what new titles (if any) are getting added to compensate.

2. Because some GMs (such as myself) do not appear every day and often do not have their characters traverse the entire world, it becomes important to OOCly communicate with each other to coordinate. If you do not express your interest OOCly, we will not be held responsible for you never getting your shot at the title.

3. Similarly, as times with one another may be sketchy due to time zone differences and the like, forum RP will also be pretty much mandatory. Expect your writing skills to be exercised if you choose to pursue a title. This should alleviate problems such as complaints as to certain player's or GM's rarity. I know I for one check the forums daily, so things should continue at a steady pace even if time cannot be made for one or the other to appear in the game.

Please review Fawee's "How to Be OOC" and Siv's "RP Etiquette"

While you're at it, don't forget to review the other stickies as well, and jog your memories! I'm sure you'll be glad you did!

Several players have reported that they are having issues logging in or out of the server. Mulitple characters have become 'stuck' online and the players are unable to access them. Please! If you encounter any similar problems, do not continue to try logging in on other characters. We just all need to be patient until Kretol has time to address the issue.

As Qaza recommends, today might be a good day to pick up salsa dancing. Clean your room, take the dog for a walk...
