3/19 STAT SYSTEM • The Stat Systems, in all regards, has been replaced by a much simpler progression system where players only need worry about their level and gold. As for battles, the staff will no longer play such a large part in the battle as a whole, unless requested to assist. Instead, a player's own cognition and practicality will be relied on to move battles forward. This provides you with much freedom while fighting, but please try and be fair to other players.
3/19 REWARDS • With the dismantlement of the stat system, rewards will no longer be provided at the end of each role play. Instead, levels and gold will be increased per post. In other words, just go write and you'll get gold and level up. At this time, your gold is indicated on your mini-profile and in the near future, so will your level. For now, just have it in your signature. More info on this may be found here, but don't worry, it's very simple.
3/19 SKILLS AND SPELLS • have been added and there will be more spell-types to come. Spells may be found in the Shop District and Skills are in the Training Hall. For the time being, Wavemasters do not have Skills, but are able to learn spells without purchasing a scroll. However, in the future, they will have summoning skills to balance their squishiness.
3/19 WEAPONS AND ARMOR • no longer exist in the Shop District. Why? Well, if you haven't noticed in the anime, the character's weapons and outfits never really change. They may learn new skills or purchase new items, but for the most part, the weapon they possess sticks with them from beginning to end. So players now have the freedom to create their own unique weapon. The type is of course limited to your class, but overall the weapon can be as descriptive and awesome as you'd like.
3/19 BIO TEMPLATE • has been altered to fit the new systems. Don't worry about being re-approved, just modify accordingly. While you still would have to buy one, there is now a Grunty area for you to add info about your cute little Grunty!
3/19 HACKS • have been altered to fit the new system. Any player may now obtain 1 Hack of the choices provided every 30 levels. The number is high I know, but it's a freaking hack! You may keep your hack whether your character is killed or not. What that leads to is the fact that there really isn't any penalty for dying in game. I really don't think that's necessarily a bad thing and it's better to have no consequence and dying can make for a very interesting role play.

3/19 DELTA SERVER • Our first server is officially up and ready for role play. The Delta Server is welcome to players between Level 1 - 30 so feel free to enter Mac Anu and have some fun! When our next server is up, I will be sure to include level info/limits by making a new thread in the Game Manual. For now, however, let's enjoy Delta.
3/19 KEYWORDS • are officially explained and listed. However, I still need to make a Bestiary to link those together...Stay tuned!
3/19 WOOD • spells Is now listed...Not sure how I forgot wood.
3/19 THREAD TRACKERS • This is now its own section within the Plat Pages as a sub-plot. Enjoy!

3/20 OOC POSTS • The boards that do not involve role playing now have post counts disabled. This makes leveling up considerably harder, but to lighten the load, Hindley and I have decided to bring the amount of post required to level up down to 15 instead of 25. In addition, Gold has been increased to 10 per turn as opposed to 5. Granted, this sound like a lower sum, but this is 15 RP-Posts and if you do the math it will 150 Posts in character to reach level 10. I think that's a decent amount of role playing for one character and it isn't too hard to achieve.
3/20 GUILDS OPEN • The staff is now accepting Guild submission for members to create their own Guild. Please refer to the form to find out how and send it to either Hindley or myself. We have 5 available spots so create a Guild and start recruiting! So far we have made three new Guilds- VENATORES, FLOWER BOMB, and DEMISE IN HINDSIGHT.
3/20 MONSTERS • We officially have a monster located in the Chaos Gate forum. They are categorized by element to correlate with the Keyword System's Third Word. All monster titles are linked with a reference image for descriptive purposes. All these monsters should populate your Fields while role playing so have some fun with them!
3/20 GRUNTY FARM • the Grunty Farm is up for business and I have to say, these things are adorable! With Grunties now in existence, a stage system has been implemented to have them grow by way or Grunty Mints. The Stages are Baby, Kid, and Adult. Enjoy!

3/21 GRUNTIES • There's a new event where all new people get their own Baby Grunty, as a thank you from us to you. Get your Grunty fast as this giveaway ends the 1st of next month. Also, the Grunty Guide has been updated: Please Purchase and Feed your Grunty within the same thread that you acquired the little guy. This does not require interaction with an NPC, we just need some form of indication that you bought Grunty Mints so we can deduct Gold from Players.
3/21 HEAVYAXE • Our newest has been made available. I know, I know...It should've already been there, but I was being picky between the HEAVYBLADE and HEAVYAXE classes. They just seemed too similar, but I have been enlightened and have thus added the class.
3/21 SERVERS • A new server has been created, the Theta Server. This place is for new players like the Delta server, but it has a very different Root Town and the Grunty Ranch for people to enjoy whereas the Delta Server has Mac Anu and the Training Hall. This way each server gets a little bit of love whether their Fields are being used or not.
3/21 MONSTERS • has been moved to the GAME MANUAL and all monsters will be listed by their designated Field. Since the Theta Server is for new players like Delta, the two of them will have corresponding monsters in their fields, but different keywords for their fields...Just for fun!
3/21 KEYWORDS • The Keywords section has been moved to the Game Manual and all Keywords will be categorized based server. Please keep in mind that the Theta Server has a separate set of Keywords from the Delta Server.

3/27 TRANSACTIONS • Previously, members had to role play themselves gaining new skills and spells and even purchasing their own Grunty. This is no longer the case as I believe it is enough to gain that 500 Gold or reach Level 10 so from here on, players' skills and purchases are automatic by means of the Player Transactions board. Simply create a thread within the appropriate board and a staff member will either deduct Gold or approve your newest attribute.
This may lead to the question, what's the point of having a Grunty Ranch and Training Hall board then? That's a great question, they still serve the purpose of player interaction. People could have their own personal stable for their Grunty or a group could meet up at the Ranch and have a Grunty play-date. In the end, the boards will be there to play a part in World Events as opposed to having them all take place in The Fields of each server.
3/27 TWIN BLADE • There is an additional perk that concerns all Twin Blades that may be found in the Skills Section. Twin Blade may learn Spells like Wave Master only more limited. They may begin with 1 Spell and may have the option of gaining 1 Spell instead of a Skill every other level. Please message me if you have any questions Twin Blades!
3/27 SCROLLS • Scrolls no longer serve the purpose they once had and are now much simpler in how they are used. Simply put, you purchase a scroll, use its spell, and poof! It goes away. Don't worry, there one time uses make them very cheap. Also, Twin Blades and Wave Masters may purchase scrolls as well, but keep in mind that the same rules apply.

3/27 NEW CLASS • The Adept Rogue is now an official class with an interesting twist! Unlike the other classes of The World, Adept Rogues do not possess their own skill-sets. Instead, they are able to use the skills or other classes and transform their weapon depending on what skill they use into the weapon they need. So upon starting, the Adept Rogue may choose any starting skill of the listed classes and every 10 levels may choose 1 of any skill that each class has.
3/27 BASIC ITEMS • These are now added thanks to the help of Zeth. You may now purchase potions, feather, and your very own Sprite Ocarina!.

This applies to anything we find should be recreated or is incomplete. I may even take parts away to make the overall experience easier and more enjoyable.
