| − | |title=No Priests? Then No Religion!
| |
| − | |article=A couple changes to [[Priest Game|religion]] have been made. The first change, which was enacted a short while ago, requires you to have at least as many priests as non-priests among the elder ranks of the religion. If not, then no nobles can be elevated to elder status until you promote enough priests to even out the numbers.<br><br>A second change has also been made, and is in testing at least on the testing islands. If your religion has no priests at all, your temples will start falling apart. The following message is sent when this occurs:<br><br><i><b>Religion Falling Apart</b><br>There are no priests left in your religion, which makes your followers leave in droves. Your temples are falling into disrepair:</i><br><br>As of now, the message is only a warning, and none of the temples are destroyed or reduced in size.<br><br>''Update: This notice has been seen on Beluaterra (testing) and on the East Island (stable).''}}

| − | |title=The Regulation of Magic
| |
| − | |article=Judges of realms are now able to regulate the use of magic and spell casting. New law options have appeared allowing the judge to declare the use of magic and spell casting as legal or illegal. The new law functions in a manner identical to that if looting, dueling, and forming new religions. So far it is not known what the exact effects of the new law are. It is known that they do not affect the use of [[Unique Items]] by nobles during combat. It is thought that the new laws will cover the use of [[Scrolls]], and possibly some new, as yet unknown, options.

| − | |article=As most of you probably noticed, there has been a problem with editing the wiki lately. The cause of this was a problem with the spam filtering system the wiki uses to deter spambots from inserting their garbage onto the wiki pages. {{Usr|Tom}} appears to have taken care of the problem, and things seem to be back to normal around here. | |

| − | |article=While it may ''seem'' like we've taken a long sabbatical, it only looks that way. In truth, there hasn't been much OOC news to report on lately. Perhaps some of you remember seeing this mesage on the login newsticker a couple weeks ago: | |
| − | {{Quotation|<b>State of the Game</b><br><br>A short information for all who are wondering why the bug count has gone up again: <br><br>We are currently working on many exciting changes to the game core, which you do not (yet) see because they are not active in the live game. Over the years, the game has grown in complexity, and many of the current bugs are a result of that, not sloppy coding. :-)<br><br>Once we are finished with this backend refactoring, there will be much less bugs and much less potential for bugs, due to cleaner and in many places simpler code structures.<br><br>But, as in so many things in life, before things get better, things tend to get worse for a while - we can't refactor and fix all the bugs in the old code at the same time, we simply lack the manpower. That's why many of the current bugs are going unfixed right now.|Login Message}}

| − | We caught up with {{Usr|Tom}} on [[IRC]] the other day, and asked him how things were going. His response: "Slow." So changes ''are'' being made, we just can't really see the changes. Yet.
