Latest with RoB and Ash

It's a Tuesday evening and i wanted to post a new blog, so here i am. For those who have not noticed, ReignOfBlood's daily signups have gone through the roof! Which is thanks to a few donations from Chaos of course. I've got some advertising in different places and on some vote sites, you probably notice when you vote for RoB daily. (which i'm still tracking by the way ;~) ). And i've been looking into search engine optimization to get RoB high in Google's search results.

On a more personal note, i started University today. For those who don't know i'm doing my 3rd and final year doing a BSc (Hons) computing degree. I don't know how much work there will be compared to the last 2 years of it, so i cannot predict it. But i will always find time to work on new stuff for you guys. (I did the first 2 years of my degree at my local college up in Barny where i used to live, much closer and easier learning enviroment, pretty boring actually lol, but now i've moved to Plymouth to a proper "university" to finish it off, for those interested).

What's next you must be thinking? Well, there are a few things that i want to do, a new weapon system, vamp powers. I have quite a few things on my list (not going to announce all of course :-P), but i have quite a list to work through as well as fixing and tidying stuff up, and all the suggestions you guys are making in the suggestion forum. Which i do read by the way, i get blood letters saying please read my suggestion etc etc, i do read them all, even if i dont reply, all possible suggestions i do note down, so for people who think they're being ignored, you're not!

I'll report any progress next week and let you know how my first week at Uni went!

MP gone =[

There, it's finally gone. It's over. Bye bye. I have had a few questions, so i'll answer them publicly.


"Do you still gotta zap people for the achievement?"
Yes, MP being removed from the game will not effect the achievement, nor will the achievement change.

What do you get for zapping people now?
... killing them?

Will MP be replaced?
In the sense of a reward for magic? No. But for a new future feature? Yes.


Also, for those who have not noticed, i have added 2 more chat rooms, a help chat and a roleplaying chat. Chat rules apply to all of course :) As well as the general chat there aswell.
Enjoy.

New Underground complete!

The new underground is now launched, check it out, and click the "give feedback" link when you're down there to give your thoughts and/or suggestions. Thanks :)

MP, turns & underground

Okay, lets start with the underground. It is almost complete :) I've gotta run some tests and maybe add a couple more things in, but it will more or less complete and will be released in the next couple days, if not, the end of this week if all goes well.

MP, finally MP is going to go. (I know i've been saying for AGES i'm going to get rid of it, but i really am this time :P). This sunday night i will be removing MP completly, you have until then to sell or trade in what you have. There are 2 reasons for this, one explained in the next paragraph, the other for a new feature, with vampire powers, coming into play which will replace it.

Turns, i'm getting rid of all ways to get turns other than the hourly turn rate. This includes, alignment, and plasma trades. Something else will be rewarded instead of turns. The exception to this is a new feature coming out soon, you'll know about that later. This will help keep cheating down, and of course getting MP will help that too. This will happen Sunday also.

Until then, you'll have a new underground to play with a maybe a new weapon system thought out. Enjoy :)

Not reading the blog is not a valid exuse to not selling your MP in time. It's made clear on everypage on the site when a new blog subject has been posted, and on the main page it states you should read this to keep in the loop of what's happening. So that exuse will not be accepted:)
