Imperial Armory Heist
Posted by: Barter -- 9:09 PM EST
   


It has recently been reported to me that some master theft has taken place in the Buyan Imperial Army's armory, with the accused, known as Bronislava 'Brine' Natkhlorovich, and absconded with a Royal Sun Tigress Mail.

The event took place a couple of days ago, but the criminal is still on the loose. Safety of the citizens is of paramount importance, and everyone is warned to proceed with caution. If you are in possession of any information that will lead to the subject's arrest, please notify the Buya Imperial Army, or the Imperial Ministry of Buya.

According to the wanted poster, Brine is wanted for numerous crimes, including but not limited to: Theft of royal property, staging a prison break, illicit gambling, sabotage, and tax evasion.

"She has previously been involved in a long string of transgressions across the Sea of Okhotsk, the Yellow Sea, and the Han Empire. She is also known as a purveyor of goods obtained from pirate raids and the black market," the poster states.

It also includes the following detail, "The subject hails from a peculiar species of goblins of Northern origin. Easily identified by her white, uneven bob cut, jagged smile, and crude disposition."

The warning, "Do not be fooled by her short stature and juvenile demeanor; She is dangerous and heavily armed, with a personal preference for axes, knives, and bombs. Often seen with a wooden bat labeled, the 'Spirit Crusher'," should be heeded.

With a reward of 5,000,000 coins on the line, we suspect folks will be coming forward to capture the fugitive.

Stay safe, readers.

Two elder shifts
Posted by: Ferro -- 7:28 PM EST
   

This month there were 2 elder shifts. Spy has a new elder, Sola, and the former elder was Arkanis. Do has a new elder, FPickleDog, and the former elder was YeSheng.

We wish them both a successful eldership. That is all.

A Crimson Changeover
Posted by: Barter -- 2:35 PM EST
   

I have had a wonderful time serving as the Alizarin Clan's Primogen, with memories I will be able to have for a lifetime. It of course has been an excellent honor serving my clan while we ward against the likes of the Unseen.

In seeking a successor, it wasn't much of a challenge to identify the ideal person. The largest struggle that I would experience would be to get Sydnei to actually accept the role of Primogen of Alizarin Clan. I know she is more than able, is the perfect choice, and her fellow kindred love her.

There is no doubt in my mind that Alizarin Clan is in excellent hands with Sydnei as Primogen. Don't you all be worry about poor ole Barter though, I'm not going anywhere! I'll be sticking around as one of the Primarchs of Alizarin's Triumvirate.

Thank you once again, Sydnei, and please join me in congratulating Primogen Sydnei, faithfully serving Alizarin Clan for the future to come.

Happy New Year!

Hey folks!
Twenty-Twenty-Won has ended as we now enter Twenty-Twenty-Too!
Congratulations on surviving and thriving in these difficult times, at least enough to take time to read some news about this Twenty-Three(And-Then-Some)-Year-Old Game!

The much anticipated and celebrated "Wisdom Star" - also currently referred to as "Mod Star" or "Coin Star" has returned to Nexus, as well as a surprising and nifty update.
(Note: For those unfamiliar with this special occasion, say "Wony" for Wony modulator or "Alilana" for Alilana Grande and pay a certain amount of gold or daily coins depending on your level in order to get the craft skill/experience bonus. Each item will last for 8 hours in your inventory starting from the moment they are purchased, and can be purchased again after such duration causes the items to be removed from your inventory.)



Now, upon logging into Nexus (or changing servers apparently), the user will be shown the last time the present character has logged out!

Update: The GM user named NexusTK released the following statement on Community board today to elaborate on the new login feature:

Board : Community
Author : NexusTK
Subject : Last log out information
Date : 1/1
(*Showing this information when you move between the servers was not intended. We will remove this, as this is intended to be shown just once when you log in. We apologize.)

We added this information as a security measure. This way you may know if someone other than you has logged your characters.

We are seeing some cheaters creepily logging in and out of someone else's characters. Why are not not notifying the players right away, you ask?

Several reasons, such as we need to know what the cheaters do, who owns which characters, and often the players being hacked are cheaters themselves that have obtained and used cheat programs with keylogger embedded from other cheaters. Or maybe the cheater is trying to frame some players.

Some players complain this new line of information is annoying. We'd like to think the benefits of this outweighs the annoyance in helping you ensure you are the only person that is controlling your character, and we hope you will get used to it very soon.


May you all enjoy yourselves responsibly in this time for crafting and hunting boosts! Also hope that you take care before celebrating too much!
