Reminder
EM Dudley will be on Vacation from May 1 - May 10, 2010
But we are not alone: EM Vladimere is still here and in charge during the week.
When EM Vladimere is not here, once again EM Ham will be in charge.
Though concerns were voiced about whether EM Ham would rot before Dudley's return.

Questions and Answers
Gareth of S@GE asked if an NPC is killed, is there a way to lock down the corpse for our detectives to have a chance to evaluate the body for it decays. EM Dudley stated that the game mechanics will not allow for him to be able to do that. Lady CaT of S@GE asked when the next weigh in will be for the Son of the Sea Angling Tournament. EM Dudley states that it will help the week of May 10, 2010

The Return of Powerhour??
Not really



But a very special guest, Associate Producer Mesanna, joined us to answer a question posed by ChaosMage of [FY]
He asked if the Scrolls of Alacrity event could be re-introduced.

Mesanna stated that plans are in the works to bring them back, but not at the 15 time.
Instead they could be between 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Though it was not officially announced.

Someone took the opportunity to ask Mesanna about Punkbuster and stopping the scripting and hacking in Ultima Online. Mesanna stated that they would not be touching Punkbuster but something else would be used and that speedhacking will be the first target. No other details were given, as it would be really silly to let the cheaters know ahead of time.

Thank you so much for chatting with us, Mesanna!!

Feedback
EM Dudley inquired about the possibility of robes with the Cartography and Lockpicking skills being added to the Captain Bloodrum's Challenge. This would be to try to open the event to participants without the currently needed skills. After many people gave their views, pro and con, options were weighed and it was decided against such robes to be added.

Remember, if you need to contact an EM:

You can also post questions on the Bulletin Board, at the Hall of Commons, located north of the Britain Moongate​
