Weird ... getting ready to complete 2 quests had 15 planks for the ships captain (Blitzbee Island) and a Steel plate for he poor guy in the snow.
Log out to get a coffee and ... when I came back;
Couldn't connect to server ... with both tablets ...
Finally when I got in I was in the corral next to the tavern ... no plants, no steel plate.
I see the map empty of people on my friends list, when it has at least 5 or 6.
Anyone else?

It seems there have been issues with the server and it looks like it has been reset to an earlier time.

Ahhhhh I see. Could have gone back a little further before I spent 16m on boots I don't need and can't use.
hahahahahaha
But hope everything is good now.

Everything should be working again.
Those with losses should contact an admin with details.
(note that false reports can be punished for, as there's a lot of work ahead).
--I just have to say that, don't anyone take it personal.
It was a fun little period of time - facebook and forum exploded haha.
I'm glad compbatant was so quickly on top of it, and fixed it quickly.
Now we can all play our favourite game again!

I lost 15 planks and a steel plate ... while getting back the planks I got 4 magic trunks. I'm happy.
No to find the "Snow Cave", it doesn't appear in the quest pdf but I gotta give a dwarf a steel plate that is freezing in there.

Oh, you've been there once already.
It's the fun place with all the little ice gremlins...
Look for the cave on the plains of snow - you'll see blue cyclops nearby

I know I have been there but the quests reads "Snow Cave" what you're talking about is "Frost Cave" (according to the sign) But I'll go in - again! (Map 1,-2)
Regardless, I can't find it in the quest.pdf.

A little history
The pdf is old - common knowledge.
But it was made before some things had actual official names, and before most signs had words on them.
So, most places were referred to in "common names".
Most notable would be Martek's Stronghold and Silverwood
Although, story wise, they had names, most did not know them by that.
Most called them "100g city" and "200g city" - based on the fee you're charged to enter.
If you ever hear those names, now you know what they mean.
And that the player saying them is likely an old time player.
So, maybe things don't line up perfectly in some places... but as long as you can figure it out, it's not a big deal.
