We all had fun at LegCon, lots of things got discussed. We have also decided that from now on all LegCons will be followed with a community game of TripleJack (beer optional). Normally I get lots done the day after LegCon but this hasn't been the case as my computer exploded in firey... or well my main HDD died. Still re-installing programs and restoring files but all should be well again once that is done.

First thing on my list of things to do is shutting down Dev and starting tests on the new AI for Map 5. If you missed LegCon you'll have no idea what any of that is, I'm sure Scott will post logs soon but for now just ask somebody more awesome than you who attended!

Well thank you for sticking around. I sometimes forget how much of a life of its own this community has, thanks to all the staff for keeping things working during my absence. I am now officially back. I've acquired some work on the side doing local network / IT support to keep me going. Thank you especially to those who have kept purchasing subscription.

You'll hear about my side project no doubt later this year, for now it does not matter. First thing on the cards is LegCon tomorrow. Work on the new combat system will continue, the map for April to June will be new and different... I haven't decided what it will be yet (suggestions will be taken at LegCon). First things first though I have a ton of bug reports to sort through and a lot of small updates to get done, so expect spam in your combat log from updates!

Firstly let me wish you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day on behalf of the whole Staff team! I hope you've had a chance to enter our official St. Patrick's Day Contest in the Main Forum. The entries I've read so far are great. If you haven't noticed, there are some special St.Patrick's Day themed outfits available to use at the moment. They will be around for around another week so check them out if you have not already done so! You will find them as Level One designs and can view them all via our wiki page here.

Anyway just thought I'd give you a quick GFX update. Some gang Rank 6 male designs have been re-released and new female Rank 6 designs are soon to be finished. I am currently working on gang Rank 10 Accessories for both genders for each gang and so you will see them added fairly soon also.

Incase any of our female players have not noticed, I turned some of the male Facial Wear and Gloves into female editions. I hope to be adding some more female outfits throughout the next few months.

LegCon will be in Online Chat this Sunday at 5pm Server Time (10pm GMT) and the current agenda is Market Storage vs Subtime Trade-In! The reps for each gang, rogues and the elders have not been mailed to me yet, even though it was meant to be done by the 15th . I would like a list of reps mailed to me, by the gang leaders, along with 2 other topics you feel need discussing by the end of tomorrow. If not then you'll risk your gang not being given a chance to bring up queries during the event.

LegCon #4 will be on the 20th of March at 5pm EST! DMaster has posted all relevant threads in your gang member forums. The one item on the agenda is the Player Market vs Subtime trade-in, we aim to make it more fair for subscribers who trade subtime in now the Market Guidelines that have been in operation since 2008 have been dropped.

As always we need 4 reps, and 2 topics your gang feels need raising - so make your voices heard. To make it fair we're allowing Elders and Rogues to have a say also.

Deadlines:
o March 15th - LegCon reps mailed to DMaster for Scott & Zorg to edit accounts for chat purposes.
o March 18th - Topics discussed and mailed to DMaster by Gang Leaders.
