February 18, 2013 — Trouble connecting?

If you are having any trouble connecting to the game since we moved servers, and you use MUSHclient, you need to clear your IP cache. After that, you should be able to connect with the same old address.

P.S. Sorry this wasn't posted here earlier.

February 2, 2013 — New Server Update

Yay Givur! We are all moved to our shiny new server! You don't have to change addresses or anything! Just log off and log back in and you should be on the right version of the game.

The moment we've been waiting for is here! The second version of Witchcraft and Wizardry is to the point where character creation is opened. While I've not been able to find any issues with it, I am still labeling the game to be in Alpha Status for at least a couple of weeks. There is still some Grid Work underway, but everything is @dug to the point of being playable. So this is the official Announcement that Witchcraft & Wizardry is moving! Please log onto wiandwi.net PORT: 1936. Create your characters and let the fun begin! Opening Scenes are scheduled for September 1st which will coincide with IC Sept, 1 when the Kids are all getting on the Hogwarts Express.

Rachel here, your friendly neighborhood Wiki Maven!

I'm going to be going over the Wiki and putting together a navigation system so you can find any information you're looking for, quickly and easily. The Chargen Guide is mostly done, and I'll be filling in information on lists (attributes, abilities, arts, etc). If you find anything broken for more than an hour, send an @mail to Rachel on game. Send me things you'd like to see on the wiki too!

Bad Boo!! I have spaced out on getting this done for a couple of days now…

We are finally at the stage where Chargen is complete enough that I hope that everyone will go through it and make sure they have everything done. The Details room especially needs to be entered and make sure to do Step 1. To make sure everything is set up just right. The only thing that is not working in Chargen currently is the Relationship code. This is alright and should just be done on the individual Wiki pages so that the info can be put in at a later date. If you run into any problems ask for help on the Questions channel: q <blah>. If you aren't answered then please put the issue into a +job: +job/create query/<title>=<blurb about issue>.

Once you are all through Chargen again type: +apply and staff will look over your character and contact you or approve you as soon as possible. If you've applied in the past you'll need to re-apply. Please please please be patient when it comes to staff getting around to your character as this is going to be a tsunami of apps in all at one time.

I am so excited that we're finally at this point! Thank you everyone for you patience and sticking with us through thick and thin! Upon +approval I've informed staff (or this'll do it!) that each player is to receive 50 Dirty Socks!

Jan 01, 2011 (Happy New Year!)

It has finally come time my friends to start preparing for the server shift! We are at a point on NEO that I feel confident in Overwriting the tangled mess that this game turned into. What this means is you should start backing up everything you have and want to keep, @mails, descriptions, logs, temp objects, anything you have on this site will be poofing! Yes unfortunately this means that you will have to re-create your character log-ins. To give people plenty of time with this, I've decide to hold off just a while longer, I was thinking February 22nd cause it's my Birthday. But if people are wanting to get the ball rolling and want to hike the date to say a couple of weeks from now, please let me know! You've all been so very patient and I love you for it! But no matter when it happens, this is a reminder to have your 'T's crossed and your 'i's dotted! So keep in mind if one day you're logging in and you it says your character doesn't exist, tae a deep breath, it's okay! It means the game is in it's new stage and it's time to re-create!

We are OPEN to players, but we are still in ALPHA development and are looking for staff. Sandboxes are available for RP and development and sandbox events happen on occasion. The player base is a friendly family like community. The grid is of a medium size with important places rather then every place possible in London, Hogsmeade, and other key cities and countries attached to the grid through port keys and the travel system. Races that will be available are: Centaur, Goblin, Part-giant, Part-veela, House-elf, Muggle, Squib, Vampire Werewolf, and of course Wizard.

Right now only Wizard play testing is happening. Hopefully soon enough we'll get to the other races. In the future the game will have a player usable crafting system, an economy and tons of games within the games. In time we will be implementing our own form of FUDGE RPG for MUX.

What we are doing courtesy of nails, is we (the coders and I) are working on a NEO-site, what this is is a game started from scratch so we can organize things and fix what's been broken and establish and build the game as we want it there. With the Storytelling System Character Generation, a good start on all the code stuff we want and I'll be transferring the grid over to the NEO. Once all of the foundations and spare objects to take up the closer to 1 Database numbers, which for those of you who have never been on the Admin side of a game means that the game is a lot more neat and tidy which also means ease in finding things when necessary. Hence a better running game.

To make my life easier, (and when my life is easier the NEOsite gets done quicker!) please @decomplie your characters and store the information there somewhere on your computer, or even LJ might not be a bad idea, but the best idea is make a character page here on the wiki so that you can make the PCs you want to keep anew with all the code for them nice and fresh. Because for those of you who have been with us since the beginning probably have several different systems inputted into your character. Some of the information will still be needed, but it will perhaps be inputted differently into the new system of things. (There will be a database save before we overwrite, but again to make my life easier please take responsibility for your own characters.)

All of these suggestions are because when the NEOsite is done we will be overwriting -this- horked up version of the game with the stream-lined functional site. Because of this once the NEO site is in place, then we'll be considering the game in Beta while everyone play tests and bug hunts. Hopefully within a few months from that point we can step out of Beta and be considered out of Opening and into Full Mode!

The time this NEOsite will take is up in the air. I am trying to hurry things along without sacrificing quality. But we've gotten a lot of progress done already and on the code side of things are more advanced in the past couple of weeks there that we are here. So RL willing it will hopefully not be too long. A (New Years) wish of mine is to Overwrite with the NEO game on…you probably guessed it, New Years. Which will hopefully put the 'Full Mode' on my Birfday: Feb, 22nd. I am -still- going to need a lot of help with descriptions for the grid before New Years, so if you are interested in helping with this please @mail Boo and we will get you going with a BLDR.

Thank you everyone for your support and even your critique, it has helped a great deal in getting together a game I hope we can all love and participate in for a very long time to come.

With everything going on, and with all the support from all of my active players, I would like for all of the active players to show me they are really active by @mailing me with the Subject: I'm Active! and then in the body have the e-mail address you use the most and will be using for all of your character registering once we get to that point. It's not mandatory, but those that do it will be rewarded and those who don't will be vanilla. ;D
