asks Yimmy over on Stratics.

Developers, i have been testing PVP on a mage in KR and there are quite a few fixes that are currently needed. Please when you get a chance today come over to the KR Forum and let us know your listening....

If you guys are all still on vacation someone just let me know and ill post this again in a week or so, if not then please shoot some kind of message to let us know your actually out there =}

Thank you, and lets make KR the best it can be!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jeremy gave a brief update

I'm back at work, and I think Draconi's nearly there, but things aren't properly back to normal around the office until next week. (For values of "normal" that include "Where am I? Where is my computer? Where is the vending machine? " etc - it'll be rather a slow month, I expect.)

and went on to say

I'm still in TX, working off of my couch (to the delight of my cats, who are JUST THRILLED that their primary heat source is around more.)

Good vacation - cleaned the house, ran errands, watched two seasons of Buffy on DVD. Played non-MMO video games, for a change. Was lovely

~~~~

Lord Braden has been having some winter fun on TC!

Draconi has been spotted in Winterland debugging the snowball wars, so I think he has been having fun working the entire break.

Snowball wars is AWESOME. Join us....Join us.....

~~~~

Jeremy jokingly warned that

I think we have to actually physically restrain Draconi in order to prevent him playing around with UO.

Could be worse, last winter break he got bored and set Luna on fire

~~~~

Yimmy thanked Jeremy

Awesome Jeremy thanks for letting me know your there =}. Shoot me an email or a pm when you get a chance so we can start discussing all of the wonderful fixes for KR and get this thing finished.

And despite what most say its actually very very close to completion, a few things need to be tweaked.

while Gwendar-SP [ intent on spreading doom on the thread,] replied

A few??? like the moongates that are hard to go through? the useless map that is one big blur and not even oriented properly and certainly doesn't come close to replacing UOAM? the giant beetle that takes up half the floor? the back pack that is about two times too large? the mining outcroppings that they forgot to put in? the UGLY UGLY paper doll.

I still haven't oriented myself to be able to read messages. Certainly don't feel at all confortable leaving my house let alone trying to do something in it.

~~~~

Jeremy had an answer about the mining though.

The mining outcroppings - in Moonglow, anyway - should be there. (There's no easy way to do it programmatically, so we took care of the poor unmineable island by hand while we try to figure out how to handle it in general.)

~~~~

Calming down a little Gwendar-SP replied

ah. they are sort of nice if one doesn't live near mountains. I was shocked when I couldn't find them. Even went and stood on one, switched to kr and it wasn't there.

Are there any plans to give us the controle q back? I use it all the time when stocking vendors. Am still VERY concerned about auto map and going through moongates. I gather that they did let us swap back to legacy key strokes - i haven't check that. I log onto KR, say yep still ugly and go back to playing while i still can

~~~~

Shansu was keen to know more about Jeremy's holiday viewing of Buffy

Which two seasons? Had you seen them before?

~~~~

Jeremy

First two, in order - I'd seen all of one, and scattered reruns of 2, although apparently I'd missed all the important episodes (Started watching around S3, back in the day... man, it's like going through high school all over again.)

~~~~

An impromptu discussion on Buffy continued,with Jeremy posting this with a link for everyone.

Neat! Television Without Pity has some pretty awesome, thorough recaps too - missing an ep of Buffy and dying to find out what happened is what led me to that site, years and years ago

Yeah, I only made it through two seasons despite spending five or six days doing LITERALLY nothing else - it's gonna take me quite a while to get through the whole stack

Larisa, Buffy + UO are why I made it through high school alive, without a criminal record, and with a diploma. I wasn't a bad kid, but man, was I bored.
