Going to focus on any quick fixes that need to be made since power and internet is some what more stable now.

Essence of Cazic Thule made a bit more common.

Waypoint script edited/fixed to require you be in a public zone if you enter instance. This is to prevent (or slow down) some abuse that has been going on. Was thinking about using a timer, but wouldn't have fixed the problem.

T8 OldCommons night time undead aggro radius reduced to 1/3 of previous aggro range.

Reward Succor clickie updated, and new spell file available for that to work. Should help prevent having to double zone when doing succor in an instance. Will go into affect after next server reboot.

Any other quick fix request are welcome here.

Just lost power here, and running off generator. Decided to turn off double loot while internet still works. Still, double loot until Monday night was a good long extended double loot weekend. Will take affect after the server resets, or possibly after zones reset too, so you might be ok for continued double loot as long as the zone doesn't close.

I increased the drop rates in CT just now, although I was tempted not too because of Felony's comments.

[All]

All items, flags, plat, task, race changes, AA, EVERYTHING, on EZ Reward NPC will be 50% off during Dec 20st - 25th. Dec 20st - 31st.

Will also be running double loot too.

There are various ways to get credits and plenty of time to get them before the event.

This will help many players that already have a balance of credits.

It is ok to trade items in game for credits from other players. The Credit_Exchange NPC in Nexus will help with that, for players to withdraw credits in a form of a cd-key that can be given to other players. I think withdraw requires a minimum balance of 40 to be maintained due to previous Christmas credits given away.

Credits are also given out when game breaking bugs are reported, such as dupes, invincibility, exploits, etc.

Due to recent skyrocketing value of BitCoin, will only give 1.5x value for them in credits. They are currently valued around $1200, and just a month ago was around $100-$140. Its an obvious bubble that could pop at any time too. Besides buying them on exchange websites, you can easily farm them using your graphics card too, at the mere cost of electric bill and wear n tear of your hardware.

Since people already have credit balances, figured running 50% off would be better deal than running 2x credit rewards. This will be our first time doing this, so hope it goes well and is enough advance notice to be fair to everyone.

Here is another good one:

I won't support retail stores during Black Friday. They are ruining Thanksgiving where people should be with their families having dinner. I also have no desire to be in a crowd of lunatics willing to pull merchandise out of your hands, and sucker punch you to get it. Just to save a few dollars, really? No thanks.

Shame on retail for ruining Thanksgiving, and shame on the shoppers supporting this spending money they don't have on items they don't need.

Its that time again lol:

Zerkers might be OP on DPS so I might need to tweak them.

I think internet over mobile phones here is like $5 per megabyte.

Thanks.

Power just went out again, and internet typically goes out 12-24 hours after the power goes. Our phone lines seem to go dead, which is odd, I thought they were different from power lines.

Still haven't wired the generator to the circuit breaker yet. Just bought a transfer switch today, hoping to install tomorrow.

Fun fun over here.

Its nice having a generator when the power goes out, but nothing I can do about when the internet goes out

Although power been out for maybe 5 days now and we have a generator, the internet stopped working maybe 4 days now.

Main power just came on now. Rumors is cause of local elections tomorrow.

Have lots of emails to go through, hopefully internet and power last long enough to read/reply them all.

I haven't decided on Christmas gifts yet, could be credits or could be random gift, or maybe multiple choice no-drop item.

Its amazing how much confidence I have driving a bit 18-wheeler and yet so timid on electrical stuff.

I think I misread your post about the dry cord, was thinking you meant plug it into a dryer, but you mean just the cord. Yeah, I guess I could backfeed the house with main breaker off.

Generator is 220v and has optional 110v as well.

We have 1 or 2 wall outlets per room but yea we need multi outlet to run all the phones being recharge. More and more neighbors keep showing up, word is getting around. Might have to go to the city for more multi outlet adaptors.

At least with the generator running here, I'll be able to remote start the double loot for Thanksgiving

Christmas will have double loot too.
