For those of you who were not present after boot yesterday, we had to do some restores. This explains the disparent uptime information and lacking experience.

B.A.T. ry is making arrangements to move servers to a different data center under the same provider, which will result in better connectivity and lower latency (especially for the non-Finnish players). Stay tuned for more information on the Schedule.

To help us test a new driver, you're welcome to try out a NOSAVE mode of BatMUD available at 213.157.69.21 2023

Dralith and Ulath have received a nice promotion for their outstanding work on the stability and bug-freedom of BatMUD. Keep up the good work and congratulations!

KepuCon (17.-18.8. in Oulu, a B.A.T. ry sponsored event this year) organizing is proceeding well! 'tell burplefloogah info' for more information.

How to get caught multiplaying: a) make 5 characters from the same IP b) play them all at the same time c) party together d) attack a monster controlled by an archwizard, specifically one who likes to taunnt players killing his monsters e) get killed in said combat (optional, but fun). Hey, did anyone notice where Birron/Enok/Ranzel/Ornak/Thorkhein went? They were here a second ago...

The player known as Thismudsuxxx was...sigh...insert joke here, I'm tired.

Ulath and Blasterr have received some heat protection rewards in this hot summer weather.

Blasterr was awarded 3 levels, two for his continued assistance to the code of BatMUD and one for making fun of the Swedish.

B.A.T. ry has agreed to sponsor the Kepucon 2007 gathering in Oulu, Finland, between the 17th and 18th of August!
