Simeon's Cave of Magic - this guy does a neat card trick. ;)
(Psst...click on the wizard to go take a look)


Level 200+

Fix for the daily lag problems that were due to a memory leak in the messaging system. Also a fix for one of the hideous fatal errors in the client software which would occur in combat when attempting to use the equip option. If you do get a different fatal, you should no longer have to reboot. Pressing the button on the fatal dialog will clear and shutdown the client software gracefully.

Reminder!
A reminder to the members of the Royal House and Round Table, the weekly meetings have again resumed. Please be sure to attend tonight's gathering at the Guild House at 9pm EST (I believe that is 2pm Sunday afternoon Aussie time *smile*).

Level 200+

Wearin' O' the Green
Congratulations to Moorcat who made level 200 today! WTG!!

1/14/99 What's New

****** 01/14/99 @ 10:17am *****
New creature class.. fire elementals. Yes, these are as brutal as the other ones. Also, stone and rock guardians created for the Snake Pit (derived from earth elementals that existed there already). A couple small art changes for Cave Ratlings and Imp Warriors that had some see-through spots on them. Work continuing on filling out the spells that are missing.
****** 01/13/99 @ 04:22pm *****
Update to speed up some of the internal message processing. It should be significantly faster, your mileage may vary. Hopefully tomorrow there will be an update to add the fire elemental class monsters, as well as the unique stone guardian and rock guardians in their completed form. (stone/rock guardians will only be in the Snake Pit).

On Another Note...
The Paladins levels have been raised, they are now level 100-300.

I Spy...

I have a habit of reading people's bios while I am adventuring through the Realm. Every now and then I come across one that really gives me a chuckle, and I captured two I wanted to share. One was just a random face passing through town, and the other was DKoL's very own BuChan...

Yet more anti-hack junk. In particular, further checking for misdirected teleports and character alterations. As soon as they get done playing around, I can go back to adding in some game improvements.

1/11/99 Level Up!

Level 100+

Congo rats to Morraga for reaching the big 100! Woohoo!

Congratulations to Baron Flicx upon earning his amber baldric for level 300!

1/08/99 What's New

****** 01/07/99 @ 06:00pm *****
Removed some of the diagnostics that were no longer required. Also, it looks like the circuit from Netcom is still having intermittant problems but seems to have improved signicantly. Try to be patient, thanx!
****** 01/07/99 @ 04:45pm *****
A Netcom backbone (circuit) problem has impacted our connections to the game server. Hopefully by the time you read this, that problem will be resolved. Also, I have added some trace code to the server to identify exactly the areas undergoing attack by hacking. The hacking attempts sometimes do contribute to lag, in particular, spikes. I'll be refining the system to handle those attempts more gracefully.

Level Up!

Lvl 200+

Congratulations to BuChan on reaching level 200 and to Moorcat on hitting 150.
WTG guys!

A new dungeon added. The Snake Pit. If you remember where Zaks was you'll find it easily. It's located along the edge of the desert. Also added a surprise for those who attempt to hack your biographies. Have fun.

Happy birthday DKoL!
Hapy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday DKoL...
Happy birthday to you!


Welcome to DKoL!

Welcome the newest member to the Dragon Knights of Light Wanderers' Legion - Aylah!! Welcome to the family!

1/05/99 What's New

****** 01/04/99 @ 02:50pm *****
Snake modifications. Added some size and color variations to the snake based creatures. This should make it a little easier to tell some of them apart. New Berals (Berals South) added to the game. Refined some of the teleporting spells so they should not be able to be misdirected.
****** 01/01/99 @ 00:01pm *****
New Year implemented, though not by me :) Have a very Happy One! - Conan
Coming up next, you'll notice changes in the appearance of some of the snake like creatures. Also, a new Berals is being added. This update is ready to go in, but will wait until Monday to ensure a good test.
****** 12/30/98 @ 04:08pm *****
Several bug fixes. Gather the Fellowship will not allow gathers to overcrowded rooms. Teleports should not attempt to preempt one already in progress. Logins no longer allow use of / characters (which would cause a player's characters to be lost). Streamlined some NPC code which allows them to run about 50 percent faster (you probably won't notice). The mystery block in Wen has been removed. Fixed a bug that was introduced that didn't allow gold to be taken out of a backpack.

Unmasked!
Have you ever wanted to see what Fufu looked like nekkid? No, me neither, but Moorcat made sure Aylah and I did...

Is that hair on him or what??

Hideous, isn't it?

Another Level Down!

level 200+

Congratulations to Millhouse3 on reaching level 200!! Great job!

1/02/99 What Makes a Furby Tick?

The inside story on a Furby, and I mean literally! An autopsy performed on an unfortunate creature named Toh-Loo-Ka, in full color and graphic descriptions. ;) Thanks to Jaella for this one, it's a must-see. LOL
