Well I haven't posted any news about the shard in four months. So I am now. We have the shard complete script wise. But deco is probably aroud 1% complete. We are hiring new staff members to help embark upon this huge task of decoing and spawning the shard. If you would like to apply for a position or beta tester position please email me at corbo6969@aol.com. I will be posting a list of things added/edited probably tomorrow. Sorry that the forums are down but it seem that all of those types of forums are down.

September 6, 2005

Well I haven't posted any news in a while so this post is going to be a bit long. To start it off I have spawned the Elemental Cave (gated to in gate room) which contains all the Ore elementals. Also I have spawned all of the Leather elementals in their own dungeons (Frost leather would be in what dungeon???). The guardian of magics (spellcrafting mobile) have been spawned along with the master of arts ( drops crafting powerscrolls) I'm almost finished with the token room (if you have anything that you would like to see in the token room please post on the forums.) and have gated to it in the supply room. The star quest has been set up, I know a lot of you really enjoyed it. New arty dropping mobiles are being added each day so keep your eyes open for these hideous monsters. I cannot stress this enough, If you guys want a larger player base you guys will have to vote. I know I would enjoy a few more people on. We will have to get more votes up because our On/Avg/Max numbers aren't accurate, actually they don't even work one bit. When there are 7 players on for a few hours, the On section still stays the same (have no idea why this is happening, if you have a sollution to this please notify one of the staff members.) This might scare a few potential players away so lets keep voting on uogateway and all other voting sites.  Also we might be getting a new site soon if we can afford it through donations. The host we are looking at are priced about $10 - $20 dollars a month. We have had about THREE THOUSAND people visit our site but we have no average 5 players on. Maybe the site isn't appealing to them.  We might be able to  buy back the old BBUO.com domain. If not we will come up with another.

To beable to log onto the shard you must have the latest OSI patch. Also you will need the patch to see some new monsters that we are putting in.

August 24, 2005

Last night after all the additions were added we started the shard back up and it crashed when it started to save. But luckily we had saved it right before we restarted. So everythis is good. And also I'll be adding more scripts once I get in touch with Kat.

August 23, 2005

I finally fixed the taming system. I will be adding it as soon as Kat gets on msn. Hopefully it will be tonight. The system will add alot of new stuff. Also with the next update will include craftable shrink potions (tamers and alchemist) and other pet related potions (tamers). Bioengineering which I'll post about on forums. And also will come the challenge game. Use [challenge to challenge someone to a duel. Also I'll be adding the two fixed monsters (Corbo, and Flamer) which now will be spawned and gated to. Also the amount of regs on a Mage/Alchemist vendor will be set to 999 and I'm going to make a reg garden where you can go collect regs but beware of the reg guardians. I'm adding a few player scripts that were submitted. And thats about all for this update. I know I have forgot something so ask about it on the forums. See you guys ingame.

Shrink potions and architect tools are now craftable. You use alchemy to make the shrinks and tinkering to make the architect tools. Also the shrink potions are sold on animal tamers and alchemist.

August 14, 2005

I found out what the problem is with you guys getting frozen when you die. You guys will have to get the latest osi patch to stop this. This probably should stop it. If not please let me know.

August 13, 2005

Tarc created a new forum that we can use. It's easier to use and has so many more features than the old one. Also we had our first Server Meeting today and talked about some problems we have been having also it was time for everyone to get together and ask questions and give some suggestions about the shard. We came up with a few new things. Such as PvP for now is only mutual unless you are in Serpents Hold, or Buc's Den. Also we are getting the challenge system and a PvP system. The challenge system some of you already know about it. You challege someone using the [challenge command and if they accept your challenge you get teleported to the arena and do battle. There will be a scoreboard to keep track of peoples wins and loses. Also the PvP system will make it when you kill another player you get some tokens. The amount depends on how strong the character is. The stronger he/she is the more tokens your get. Also there will be a chance for you to get something special. Prizes haven't yet been decided. We talked about many other things. If you guys have any suggestions or questions please post on our NEW forums! Tarc did a great job with these and everyone should think him next time you talk to him. THANK TARC from Corbo.

Ok I need suggestions from all players. What do you guys want to see more of in the shard. Like monsters, Craftables, Tamables. If you want to see more players you guys have to vote on all the links and vote on UOGateway. Don't vote more than once on UOGateway because for every extra vote you place it takes two away. But on the links you can vote as many times as  you want. One lets you vote twice a day. I know I haven't been on a lot the last two days but I have been real busy with work and all. I'm planning on trying to improve the shard a lot the next few days. I might add alot of OSI stuff to the shard. Like stealables in town and treasure chest in banks and stuff like that.

All grave yard monsters will be a lot harder and also richer at night.  If you are up for a challenge visit any grave yard at night and see if you can survive.

August 04, 2005

We have the starting point fixed and I have added many more features that you guys will love. Also we need some screen shots. If you guys would like to donate some just send them to me. Corbo6969@aol.com is the email address. PLEASE VOTE. In order for us to get more players we must vote on uogateway mostly but also on the sites I have listed. I know we are just starting up but we do need more votes.

July 31, 2005

We are having a little trouble with new players starting out it Trammel. If you're a new player and your stuck in Trammel please page and we will tele you out. That problem should be fixed within the next few days.

July 24, 2005

Sorry for the downtime. Our host's (Kat's) house was struck by lightning and was without power for a two days. 

July 22, 2005

Everything is almost done. Well not completly done but playable yes. Fast skill gain is in.  All areas are spawned. A few quest are set up. Gate room is pretty much set up. Please email me and tell me what you think the shard is missing or if you have any suggestions. Corbo6969@aol.com

I fixed the spawner system today and the whole world should be spawned soon. Also I put two more systems in. (Animal Taming System, and over 110 more spells)

July 18, 2005

We're having a little trouble with our spawner system (neruns distro) and won't be able to spawn the world until we get it fixed or find another system.

July 16, 2005

Whew! We finally got the server up and open to public. Even though there's no spawns yet. A lot of work to be done. Hopefully we will have it playable by next Friday.
