Re: So Auction philosophy thread.

Just a quick note, I'm having some computer problems and that's on top of already being behind on RoadmapPart1 coding, so I don't know how much time and focus I can give to the auction problems. At a quick glance I see that this is a constructive thread and I will read it. I was planning on opening ...

Re: Grand auction - February 3rd and 4th

Thread unlocked. Please keep the posts relevant to this auction only, we can have a separate discussion about whether there need to be any changes to how the auctions are run.

18th Anniversary

Today is our shard's 18th anniversary! There's a giftstone in the Town Center, come by and get a commemorative item :) On February 1st 2006, at 12:39:48 shard time, I started a RunUO server and created the first account. At the time that was central european time, so that would make it 11:39:48 GMT ...

Re: Roadmap part 1

Just looking back, yes I did indeed miss the mark :worried: Well, there was still a lot of random non-UO responsibilities to be done, I guess in late November I was off the hook. And I was quite productive since then, minus the 2 weeks around the holidays and an occasional week where a bunch of erra...

Re: Auction January 6th 2024

I have just processed the trades from all the tickets with bids on various items, and I noticed that all of the tickets were for the December Grand Auction Re-Auction.
Was this thread missed by everyone, or just no interest / too high prices?

Re: Grand auction - December 9th at 10th

I have just processed the trades from this auction's re-auction. What's weird is that all except the +12 tinkering suit were bid on. Was quite a hassle managing all these tickets, but well one by one, we got thru it :) Maybe there was an overall concern in December that gold will be more scarce, or ...

Re: Auction January 6th 2024

Quick FYI about doing the re-auction trades, I was planning to do that today but some other tasks took longer than planned, so i will probably do the trades on monday. I took a quick look at the tickets and it seems that all of the biddings have ended by now.

Re: Sequentastic clock with timestamp bug

It's fixed in the code but it's pending a server restart. There's a bug in the time display - if you obtained the clock "at exactly" or "at about" the 12:31:23 shard time, no matter if you chose a sub-second format, it will just show that "at exactly" or "at about&...

Re: EXCELSIOR DAILY

A note on the upcoming House Drop aka IDOC. I had a few unanswered emails in my Inbox, from players who got notifications but can't login. Just went thru all of them, so there are probably a few houses out there that shown as "In danger of collapse" but are now "Like new". So if ...

Re: Auction January 6th 2024

We have a nice number of tickets open for both Re-auctions. Just a quick rule, we are going to be rounding the bids to 3 significant digits... So that can be for example 7.31 million, 21.8 million, or 183 million. E.g. if the current bid is 5.67 and the minimum increment is is increased by 10% to 6....

Re: EXCELSIOR DAILY

There was an issue with the website opening very slowly, since yesterday. I just found that there was a web crawler, blocked it and let's hope that's the end of that :)
