With just one day to go till the next Zoo points count we still got 16 million points. With one decay to go we "only" lost about 1 million points . (We had 16,787,182 last week).


We did realy well to maintain this high points!




We realy deserve that Party!

Its just astonishing. There must be some people really putting a lot of money in still, plus the taming hours !! just wonderful. I just hope some of them come to the party ! we certainly do deserve it ! irl too I think !
I certainly am going to have a glass of something celebratory by me for real that evening. Maybe some good real ale, that would be rather Ultima-like


It has been a long week workwise and not much time to get on in UO but thankfully that part of the week is over now. I hope to have some time after my weekend shifts to sort through more stuff to sell off for the Zoo and get more party stuff together. I am dead tired and going to have a good nap now but hopefully will about later and do some more taming !

With a decay of 3,5 million points in a week this is unbelievable!!!

Oh bugger ! Our secret is out... !


Seriously, I am gobsmacked. That is an insane amount of money being donated there. There would have been no shame to us having decayed the normal amount, but to have this staggering, incredible increase.... well now I know why Drachenfels was so named, because Dragons ROCK !!!

I don't think I have ever been quite so proud to be part of this shard. And this is the second time this game has made me cry for real within one week !

I smeared the donation box full with Belgium chocolates that works all the time to lure any kind of animal/person to it!

Heheh... maybe our little blue box has some kind of weird bug where it goes backwards with the decay and not forwards !!!

Hope you feel better today, hon. I am up way too early after too little sleep but going to do a bit of taming now. Luckily I have a day off today so I only have to go out to the shops once and then the rest of the day is mine to catch up on sleep and get stuff ready for the party ! see you later

Yeah, I know my general theme is the old saying that you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar, but I think this time the vinegar worked :p so, shall we go and do " nice cop nasty cop " team all round the forums now ? LOL !!!

It's a done deal... see... I go in there all nice and say " Come now good folks, look at our little shard and see what can be done " and lull them into a sense of false security, then you can go in all BLAM and " You're a bunch of lazy a$$es, get to work you slackers !! "

Hey cat, Frarc. You happened to help wake up the right person on Europa who got some other people awake. Check out the news topic to see our first couple of drives at getting our zoo populated.
Thanks again for coming over to support us even if it was as good cop bad cop

I mentiond it before, it just needed a bit of a shake to wake the right people up. I know it can take a little time before it gets going. But it can be a realy nice community event.

If you ever need another bad cop, you know where to find me! I can be Evil in many ways!

@ Kayne - yeah, you see, Frarc looks all meek and kind and purry cat but push the wrong buttons and he is all fangy and GRRR. Whereas I am all evil on the outside and all sugar and spice on the inside
MOSTLY :p

I have bee keeping up with the Europa posts, its great, THAT's what we're talking about !

Frarc, I think being top for a month is fantastic, we are going to drop at some point but we will keep going and never forget what we achieved !

Kayne

Sugar and spice or evil you two have been the wake up call. I woke up Europa and so far its holding out. We made tier 4 and hopefully with the combined efforts going on 5 wont be too long away.

Bad news


The Zoo has dropped down one tier


Don't panic it's not very far but if we don't get it back up now, it will be harder later(that can be taken two ways, hehe)

So if anyone finds they have spare gold after fighting in the rift please donate to the Zoo
I hope we can keep our place on top of the Zoo list

I will help with the Zoo as soon i'm rdy (playing since 3 or 4 weeks).

I have one question though, besides the rewards you can choose, is there any other benefit for us ? for the server in general ?

No. Besides that we can show a silversteed in the Zoo there is no real benefit from it.

It just a matter of showing that a community can work together to accomplish something difficult.
