Auto Flarer, also a correction.

For those who don't know, the auto flare adding NPC will be stationed in the tent in the Landing's Garden Niche until 10am tomorrow. He can add flares to weapons 4x and below, with some restrictions. Please see the posts in the Events, Suggestions topic for further info.
For people who are already aware of this, there is one correction to my previously stated information. Apparently by design, flares are unlimited per person, instead of one per day. So, flare away, while you still can!

Dateline 8/25/2008: GRAND BALL ANNOUNCED TO HERALD OPENING OF GUARDIAN KEEP!
Author: GS4-ALYIAS
Date: 8/25/2008 12:47:04 AM
King Tyrnian Vaalor is pleased to announce a royal ball on the occasion of the newly-renovated Guardian Keep. Due to the importance and scale of this event, the elven king will magnanimously allow all members of the populace to attend.
Guardian Keep, long an emblem of Ta'Vaalor's might and majesty, had been long closed to the public. King Tyrnian has expressed hopes that the opening of the keep allows the general population to more closely experience the glory of his people.
All guests are expected to dress in formal attire. Slovenly appearance or behavior shall not be tolerated.
The ball will be held on Feastday, the 20th day of Imaerasta, in the year 5108 (September 20th - Prime). An encore of the ball will be held on Restday, the 21st day of Imaerasta, in the year 5108 (September 21st - Platinum). For both evenings, the ball will commence at 9:00 PM, ET.

Koar's Temple Opens its Doors
Author: GS4-AUCHAND
Date: 8/17/2008 1:36:46 PM
After being closed for many years, the Fane of the God-King has opened in Solhaven. All are bid welcome to the Temple, which is Solhaven's largest place of worship.
It should be noted that there are two unusual aspects to the Koar Temple:
1) The entry arch strips those who approach of all their spells.
2) Upon entrance to the prayer plaza, your eyes will be drawn to the dais. Everyone within the plaza can see actions occurring on the dais. If you wish to hold a religious ceremony, worshipers can see what you are doing from anywhere within the plaza or the 'highwalk.'
Enjoy!

So one of the nice side-effects of having the Con and having all the GMs over to my place for dinner on Wednesday was that I got to talk to Mestys and Sirina and show them the Spore entries and let them make the final call on the winner.
We had a TON of entries and I was amazed at how many good quality critters you all were able to crank out!
Our winner from GemStone submitted several creatures that were consistently of really good quality, but the one that Mestys gave the final thumbs up was:

(Please note that for some reason, you can't click on the links and go right to the right place. You have to cut and paste these links into your browser!)
Such a cute leedle goblin!
So, once I figure out who you are (there were no account names included in your submission), we'll arrange to get your prize to you!
Congrats!
Special thanks goes out to all of you who entered! Here are some of the Spore Page links so you can see (and snag) these GS creatures for yourself!

SimuCon Update
Author: SIMU-SOLOMON
Date: 8/4/2008 4:54:32 PM
I just got back from the pre-Con meeting with the hotel and I have a few things to talk about!
1) The ENTIRE hotel is NON-SMOKING! The General Manager of the hotel wants to make sure that everyone is aware of this and it's not something they're just doing. This is a Sheraton mandate. Please understand that there are no smoking areas anywhere inside the building. They have arranged a smoking area outside for us (better than the Parking Lot Corral last year, not quite as good as the Chalet Patio), so that and the designated areas outside the lobby in the carport/breezeway areas are where you need to smoke. He wants me to remind everyone that smoking in your rooms will results in a $200 charge and smoking in the hotel area itself can result in the CON being fined, so please, don't get yourself (or us) in trouble?
2) Wired Internet access in the guest rooms for SimuCon Attendees is free but they wanted to say that when you log into the system, it may warn you of a charge. Just click "OK" to accept the charge, as it will be comped on your bill. If, by some chance, you get charged on your bill, they will (of course) take care of that when you check out. Wi-Fi access in the hotel itself is also free.
3) In addition to the Drunken Fish Discount, Ozzies Sports Bar will be offering a 10% Discount to participants of Simucon 2008. You will have to bring in a flyer that they printed up and gave to the hotel, but the hotel will make those available at check-in and if you need another, I'm sure you can pick one up.
4) Housekeeping wanted to let us know that while they have worked out a plan to not going to start cleaning rooms for your group until 2:00pm (they know we like to stay up late and sleep in), they will not have Housekeeping Services available to clean rooms after 4:00pm. If you have your Do Not Disturb sign out past 4pm, your room will not be cleaned until the following day (provided your do not disturb sign is not out)! However, you can always call for more towels, etc. and that will not be a problem to get them after 4pm.
I think that's it, for now!
We'll see you in a couple days!

Mstrike Confirmation Option Added!
Author: GS4-COASE
Date: 8/1/2008 4:13:33 PM
A confirmation option has been added to the MSTRIKE verb to reduce the chance of spending stamina unintentionally. When this option is selected, using MSTRIKE to attack while still in recovery mode will require a confirmation on the user's part. The default is for MSTRIKE to require no confirmations. To require confirmations on your MSTRIKE stamina expenditures, simply use the MSTRIKE SET RECOVERY command.

The following updates have been made to the warcamp system:
-The treasure mechanics of the warcamp system have been significantly revamped. Previously, the communal loot chest (in the supply huts) produced treasure more or less randomly. It has been changed to produce treasure scaled to the level and number of warcamp creatures killed in that warcamp by the person searching through it. Keys to this chest are now always randomly generated by the treasure system when looting the bodies of warcamp creatures.
-The rate of warcamp creature population increase has been significantly slowed.
-The rank 15 Guardians of Sunfist requirement to raze 15 warcamps has been reduced to 5 required razings.
-The Guardians of Sunfist taskmasters will now handle experience awards in a fashion identical to Adventurer Guild taskmasters.
-A ranked list of Guardians of Sunfist masters with the most prestige points is now on display in each society outpost.

SimuCon Discussion Groups
Author: GS4-AUCHAND

We noticed that a number of people had responded to our recent poll on the website, "What GemStone IV topic would you like to learn about most at SimuCon?" with "none of the above - let us know in the Discussions with Simutronics folder" as their answer. In fact, at 16% as of this posting, that answer is tied with Monks as the biggest desire, which isn't terribly surprising given that it's a catchall.
However, no one has posted to tell us specifically what they want to hear about.
Our discussion groups at SimuCon are going to cover a lot of ground, so there's room for almost everything you want to know.
Please tell us here.
Thanks,
Auchand
