Since I began work on the PS webpage several years ago, I have since gotten a new job, I'm attending college, I'm fostering two new clans, and have dedicated myself to a variety of games. Before you ask, yes, some of them I actually find more enjoyable than Myth! My original intentions of calling this webpage quits, however, wasn't because I hate Myth, on the contrary, I still love Myth! Unfortunately, time constraints and responsibilities have since radically reduced my online time. I knew to effectively be a part of other online communities, I had to adjust my priorities and eliminate one. As much as it pained me to do, I chose Myth.
It pleases me to know that throughout these long years PS has maintained itself for this long despite Myth's weakened condition. Rest assurred, I intend to continue to be a part of the PS community. PS's members are some of the finest players and friends I've had the priviledge of being a part of and I would like to continue to be a part of the comradery we share for as long as feasibly possible.
I've taken the liberty of storing all our old webpage news in a separate page. If you wish to reminiscent the development of our webpage, then please look it over. I realize the old news page is pretty sloppy and generic as it was never really intended to be viewed, but I thought allowing the community to see our past news was the least I could do. I will continue to leave the page open. Feel free to continue to download and view any and all content the webpage has to offer.
Unless overwhelming criticism objects to the dismissal of this webpage or Myth is resurrected, I doubt this webpage will be provided with any new content, thus this will no doubt be the final post. If you wish to become a part of another clan I'm currently fostering, I'm openly willing to accept any and all members of PS into my Counter-Strike Source clan and my Matrix Online clan, both managed entirely by me. I wish you all the best of wishes and I bid farewell to this lovable webpage. I'm proud to say it was my very first and appropriately, it will be the very first I cease to continue.

I recently received an email from the web creator, Charles, of the "Myth Graveyard" community site. He expressed interest in displaying some of our well made strategy guides on his site. I gladly accepted. Our WWII guide, Myth Trow Unit Points and Setups Guide, and Arn's Journeyman Guide can now be found at the Myth Graveyard here.

Along with the update, comes a new demo that takes advantage of all the improvements Myth II has received throughout its ifespan, and sprting two solo levels and multiplayer capability for hours of online carnage.It includes various updates such as native support for modern hardware, numerous bug fixes, a new autohost feature, an abilitiy to view the currently active plugins in multiplayer games, and new mapmaking enhancements. You can view a comprehensive list of the changes in the readme.
Congratulations to PMA Lucid who has taken on the much hallowed "Head admin" role with Playmyth administrators. Lucid is one of the longest running staffers, has been a great asset to answering people's questions and concerns, and has been a fair handed guy where issues with the rules are concerned. Above all he's a good guy. Playmyth is thrilled to have him take on this important role in the pm.net lineup.
There has been an official update to The Seventh God for use with Myth 2 v1.4 or higher thanks to the hard work of both Lothar and Ghost. The update should replace any previous versions of The Seventh God you currently have. You can download the updated version here or at Creation Games websites. Creation appreciates and acknowledges the work done by Lothar and Ghost to produce this update and has accepted this update as a logical "official update" of their original The Seventh God release.
There is a lot of dispute over at the Playmyth Forums concerning the "shutting down of the Playmyth server." Several key admins have grown irritated at the lack of respect players are contributing to others online. Currently, the Playmyth server is still active, but anything is subject to change. More information as it becomes available.
Just in time for the Myth III marathon weekend, FlyingFlip is pleased to announce the release of Creation Map Pack v2.6.

Barbarian Valley - 3.1mb
En Vertigo - 4.6mb

Myrgardaritaville - 744kb
River of Life - 4.9mb
Special thanks to Aragorn for the warrior/Alric picture. It will remain on the clan members section as a cover picture. I've also found a way to edit the Geocities popup so it displays its previous "close X" option. So now it no longer sizes down along the side of your navigation scroller when you attempt to close it. Closing it though disables any animation gif's. No way to get around this from what I can see, my apologizies for this until I decide to move over to a payed url.
Playmyth, in everyones best interests, has decided to go public and detail important forum discussion relating to the mistreatment of new players on Playmyth. They ask that players
-don't mock players for asking basic questions
-don't random a team game with a new player. Neither he nor you wants him as capt.
-don't badger new players to play in unranked. It's not 1998-there are fewer games there.
-do give them polite tips on how to improve their game. Suggest they save and view films.
-do thank them for playing and invite them to return.
As we all know, the Playmyth community is slowly dwindling. The future of Myth is at stake and these newcomers will be the wood to keep the fire burning! Try to follow the above Playmyth mantra's and preserve Myth as a result.
One more thing to note: Geocities has changed the way they present there damn popup everytime you visit the page. Instead of simply being able to close it, you now have to hit an arrow in the top left of the popup. This only minimizes it though. As far as I can tell, there is no way to completely close it. I'm thinking about moving over to a $4.95/month ad free account. I shall debate it.
