Ask any future of DL / PVB questions / Donation questi here.

Post by Celeborn »

Hiiiiii everyone! :D

Just a little update. As you might or might not know, i've been working
on codig a fresh mud from the base, using everything I learned during
the lifetime of DL.

well, ideas have been pouring into code since I started, and i've
decided to finish completing 'Petal versus Blade' into a full fledged mud.

Since some people have been having panic attacks what this means for
DL, i'll make my intentions clear. I indend to keep DL running, and
fix bugs, even when PvB is done.

On another note, my RL costs are increasing by the month, and hosting
DL takes a chunk of what I should be spending on bills. :P I intend
to keep hosting DL regardless, but for anyone willing to contribute,
I added a paypal donation option to the website. :) All donations
will be used purely for hosting.

Any questions? Ask away! Wheee!

Yeah, i would bet everyone just moves to the new mud anyways, and DL can be quietly placed in a little cardboard box, and buried somewhere pretty.


Maybe start new section of forums for your new mud? You can toss in some features and stuff, and i'm sure i would have lots of ideas you could play with :)

I want to open in two days, but its probably going to take me a six months to reach beta, and a year before it is finished enough for normal play.

I do not plan to advertise PvB after this. DL and PvB will not be clones, and will give you a different player experience. Some of you might like it, but since most people like a certain style and stick with it, I dont feel I should get my pvb pbase from DL.

A. The PvB site will have its own forums when the beta opens; DL and PvB will be kept seperate. I've already designed (and partly implemented) the biggest part of PvB on paper. When the beta opens I will use external input to fill in the blanks, and fix all my horribly broken fantasy english. :P

i have paypal already setup on some other game. i wouldn't mine adding some green to this mud. If so, can be in the caretakers business? im willing to learn and pay as i come along. anyways let me know what you think. ill be up front with you. My idea is to pay and learn something to become well off caretaker.
P.S. what do you think about the new picture in my profile? under doctor zidane 8)

PvB Issues

Post by Binkly »

Glad to hear that PvB will be arriving. I'll help donate for Dark-Legacy through PayPal after Christmas, tight for money during present month :P. Other than that I'd be glad to help with Beta testing for PvB or any other way I can help. I've got plenty of time till I go back to work in April.
