    wtf early...

    /me rubs eyes.

    meh, it's all a bit rubbish at this point. The excuses and explanations on why your predictions and deadlines were wrong are becoming tiresome. Get it done. The longer this takes the fewer players will be left, and soon it won't even matter.

    Catwalk's crusade for legalized cheating was a stunning success, with ghettos and low-tiered teams everywhere losing their wells of knowledge to better kingdoms in the process.

    Step one: replace everything that works.
    Step two: blame the predictable epic fail on outside forces.
    Step three: keep the community informed that no progress has been made since the last update.
    Step four: thank you for your patience.

    Hmm, they answered my question without actually answering my question. Now that takes talent. OMAC talent.

    I don't need any specifics. I was looking for something like...

    "We know there are problems with farming and fake wars and we plan to try come up with a solution for it in the new code. Just hang tight."

    or...

    "Farming? I get my potatoes, strawberries, and peaches from the market down the street."

    The later of which I would assume to be a denial of the problem and I can just quit right now. "Yes because we don't want the game to die" doesnt exactly tell me that you know there is a problem, just that you plan to address the issues, which could mean a statement saying there is no problem.

    1. fix all remaining high-priority issue reports
    2. test age end/stay-with-kingdom/age start cycle
    3. ***run new age with full public access. ***The point of this age is to try to get a few hundred more people to hit the server at the same time, so that we can get real-world performance measurements. We plan to do this with an announcement in the current WoL game.
    4. start genesis.
    Confused here. Do you mean new age for the Alpha or something else?

    If it's broke, fix it.
    If it's not, don't.
    If you do not like the results, change your methods.
    Quit making the same old mistakes. Make new ones.

    I don't think they mean a full age on the alpha. Just a new 'alpha' age where a swarm of people sign up to see how the code reacts.

    That's just my guess though.

    afaik they added more decimals to som. I guess that number of decimals is still fixed so don't see point in that except it will force people to make new som calcs

    I think you need to change the layout of the reservation system, I just created a prov instead of using the reservation not realising that i needed to click on the use reservation (not that i was particularily attached to the other kd but anyway).
