The Data Center relocation has been completed Successfully. It will still take some time for the DNS records to start pointing towards to our IP-addresses in the New location. Reconnecting by then will most likely show you a reduction in latency & provide a better network route to the MUD. (try "nslookup bat.org" locally, if it shows an IP of 83.145.249.*)

If you don't read 'inform' newsgroup (which you reall should read) - the latest State of the MUD post has just been released.

Dazzt and Ulath were each awarded levels for performing long, arduous tasks on their own for the benefit of BatMUD.

BatMUD servers will move to a new Data Center on Wednesday, 19th of September. This will cause a maintenance break of approximately three hours during normal lunch hours Finnish time. Due to this change, we expect better connectivity for most players, especially non-europeans.

Yig has been banned for 2 weeks for robotting potion making and bluntly admitting that. If you robot, robot silently or so... Pffft.

Kyo and Darol were awarded a few levels for their contributions to BatMUD. Kyo joins the ranks of Adepts, as Darol continues to climb towards the rank of an Augur.

News reader bug is known, thank you for reporting, we'll try to fix it ASAP. During the last system crash, mySQL database got a few corruptions, which need to be dealt with. Apologies for the inconvenience.

There was a machine crash yesterday, therefore the game was restored from yesterday's noon boot. Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

We're back in save mode. Testing is done, for the time being.

As the brave adventurers cowarded out yesterday thus making out marvellous maintenance plans go poof, we decided to start the maintenance today. Right away. A boot is upcoming in the range of 15-20 minutes, after which all traffic will be redirected to testmud with the new driver. The redirect will stay a minimum of 24 hours, unless something drastic happens.
