George is once again being affected by background magic: high levels seem to be causing some of his bottles to become... strange. George is happy to hand over these Klein bottles to witches and wizards, seeing as they might be able to find a use for them.

In possibly related news, reports that spells are leaking from the books in Unseen University library have started to circulate. So far the resident wizards don't appear to have a plan of action, but the general consenus is that these energie...

Tempting Treats For Trolls, posted on Sat Sep 4 18:55:45 2010

Trolls are no longer susceptible to the poison of poisonous apples. However, they are susceptible to poisonous minerals, particularly sulphur, cinnabar, micholite and rose quartz. Witches might find that they are also quite attracted to such unhealthy items, if they're proferred in a particularly tempting way.

Looting Warded Items, posted on Tue Aug 24 12:52:59 2010

Taking a warded item from a corpse will now always trigger the ward, unless it is an item that you owned or a corpse you have been permitted to remove items from. The skillcheck for normal theft is unaffected.

To bring it in line with other actions requiring components, attempting to recharge something wizardly has changed! Now, if you attempt to recharge something and don't have enough power in your source substance, the substance will not be consumed and the guildpoints will not be used.

Spell Components, posted on Sat Feb 6 10:04:20 2010

A bug was fixed with spells when casting with the "using" syntax meaning

that it should no longer be possible to cast a spell using components in

another player's inventory. As a side-effect of this, you may now only

component that is in a container of yours then it will attempt to take

the component out even if the container is not a component pouch.

The barbarians are glad to welcome Hugh and his pub to the seasonal Hublandish Barbarians' camps. You can find Hugh in the active camp (which camp site is active depends on the season), and enjoy a merry beverage or two.

There is a new achievement for Hugh's dice game. Whilst we were in the mood, we also added a couple of achievements for Klondike solitaire (a set can be found in ...
