DutchCon 2009 mascot, The Flying Dutchman is up for sing-ups! tell flying-dutchman who/sign up!

BatMUD main server (running the game) experienced a Solid State Disk -related hardware failure, simultaneous with two other smaller, undisclosed calamities. Due to the predominant circumstances, we were only able to restore the game to the state of yesterday's (Tuesday) backup; so you've lost a full day's worth of hard play (or your character, if it was only created today). To celebrate our 'speedy recovery' we've temporarily installed IMMUNITY TO PERSONAL & GLOBAL EXPERIENCE-TUNES for all players, for the duration of next two (2) days, effective until Friday, 23:59 EET.

DutchCon 2009 dates changed (to not to overlap w/ Campcon 11), dates are set now for the next weekend: June 12 - 14, 2009 (aka 12.-14.6.2009)

DutchCon 2009 is in planning. Tell Favorit if you want to attend this year. Proposed date: Weekend of 5th of June, place: Netherlands.

CHANGE HAS COME TO AMERICA: BatMUD commemorates this fact by giving out a TASK POINT to everyone online as of right now, rejuvenating an old tradition of exceptional event awards!!

Ramjett the Rocket Man ran out of gas. THUD, he hits the grounds, Jorgoses stole his rocket pack.. And then he woke up.

A friendly reminder: Robotting is still illegal. In related news, Tarli takes a forced vacation for a while. Rumour has it that some Chaos Gods are not pleased with his actions either, which might show in his guild attributes once he returns.

Kukkonen tykittää! (A free translation: Kyo has decided to become a mortal again. Lucky sod, he had a character backup left, so he was reinstated to early-2006 mortal status)

Amor, Amor, Amore mio... Ce qui sera, Ce qui sera... In other words, Amor has been destructed indefinitely on his own request. No more love in this game.

Tarken was caught robot mining. When he comes back in December, he'll be interested to know all his materials in the exchange sold. It might have something to do with their reduced price of 1 gold per kg.
