Forgotten Tales

Just to reiterate.
The restarts all happened for very good reasons.
Today, you may notice, some items previously unobtainable are now available.
You can buy some in shops, and others are crafted.
There was a horrible bug that needed to be fixed ASAP.
The latest restart was from the fixing of it.
PLUS, there's stuff happening the average player will not see.

As for today, Hobbs is currently working on opening his new map.
At last count, he had over 200 lines of spawn commands.
Come by the start map.... Opening soon, we hope.

Ok, so here's what's happening on the event front:
Hobbs tested his map before restart; there were some problems.
He's trying to get them fixed asap. So, again, that was sadly delayed.

I tried to make an event hours ago in the Coliseum - apparently, something was broken...
Many players had crashes.... sorry about that.
The down time was only 10 or 15 minutes, so not too bad.

Recently, I was on start map... doing my "impression of art"...
(I know it's not great, but I tried)

Anyway, if anyone has ideas/suggestions, please add.
Also, for art, if you can make it in the map editor, I can make it in the game.
I'm still thinking about events... but it's really tough lately.
So, ideas on that are welcome too.
It is now officially Halloween in FT (although, not here), so let me say
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Very nice job on the ghost...
Halloween is the most important day of the year
... At least in my opinion...

P.S. That ghost is the best thing I have ever seen in FT...

I was hoping to get approval from our local ghost expert.
I'm pleased that you like it
The past several days have been difficult for both of us, I think.
Something like this, gives us a small smile, and makes things just a little better.
Just remember - you have friends if you need them.
Nobody should have to face things alone.

Agreed and +1.
And I appreciate your words of encouragement.

I got up real early today...
Already, stuff is going on...
The undead are coming...

More to come...
Keep an eye out....

Ok, so Halloween has come and gone.
There were some drops at that party, but I decided not to do the best ones, as DaHobbit was planning an event for when his map is completely finished.
It's had some hiccups, and it's still being worked on.
So, there will likely not be spawn events until it's ready.

In the meantime, we have been doing some other things to spice things up.
I wish I'd have taken pictures everyday...

Here's what's going on today.
For your Sunday enjoyment, there are some fast travel portals at the start map.

Players love the above
I was inspired, to create some scenery at 1.2 for the regular PvP going on.
I removed some trees to add some open space, and then added decorations - sure, it will hinder "shop running", but it makes today a little more interesting, no?

PvP Bar and Grill: Show

The npcs all have something to say. Also check out some of the other decorations for descriptions.

Of course, for player enjoyment, a travel option was added:

Hope everyone has a great Sunday in FT. And as always, have fun, follow the rules

AND HERE WE ARE
a year later.... of course I'd want to do something again....
The last few days, some have seen some strange things, like little bitty bats..

But here's the first real content to be seen - a new teleporter room.

Hope you all enjoy it

Pumpkins --- I like pumpkins!

I like the filling for pies!
I like the jack-o'-lantern's ==>> all the different styles of them ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓

→ Sometimes they hide in the grass, sometime in front of trees.: Show

And sometimes, like MM's creative genius, they whisk you off to new locations.

BEWARE, are you certain they take you where they say they do?

Well done Mad ...
