November 2nd, 2009 Story time! Trick or treating at Artix's house It was Saturday just before the big Halloween party. I was still at my house and running around my house jumping over furniture to test out my Ninja Costume. I was already running late... and there it was... DING DONG! The door bell. Panic set in. My stealthy Ninjaness must have failed. Probably when I turned on one of the lights to re-velcro my Ninja tabi boots. A trick or treater had come to my house! I expected to already be at the party so I did not buy any candy. In desperation I checked to see if there was any of last year's Reese's peanut butter cups left in the cupboard. Empty. Rolith ate them all the day before. So I did a ninja roll up to the door and opened it suddenly . The boy, holding his bag looked up at me and said, "Trick or Treat!!!" With my most serious face I raised an eyebrow and reached into my tunic... suddenly pulling out a shuriken! (you know... a Ninja throwing star) His eyes shot open in fear. I said, "Trick....." I dropped the rubber throwing star into his plastic pumpkin shaped candy bucket. With a surprised smile the size of the grand canyon he let out a, "WOOOOOAH-COOOOL!!!!" as he ran back to show his parents. Side note: I had intended to order 2 rubber throwing stars... and by accidentally ordered two whole boxes of them! I hope you had a fun time on Saturday. If you have a great story please share on the forums, twitter or any of the my-book-face-space-thingies! 1st Upholder blunder fixed! We awarded all 1st Upholders with the badge and Golden Starsword on Sunday. Also... we accidentally gave it to every single new player who happened to sign up Sunday morning. O_O <gulps> Thank you for letting us know! This has been corrected and now only 1st Upholders have the Starsword. How does something this strange happen? Well, when you create a new character your expiration date is set to... today. When we ran the big database update we were doing a check based on each player's Membership expiration date. <Dooooom!> You can probably figure out the rest. Considering how many mistakes I made running the live mod-chat event on Sir Ver prior to the 1st Upholder release this could have been a lot worse! For those of you who do not already know, no -- I do not drink, nor smoke, nor do any drugs. I did dance until the weee hours of the morning though! (Ultimate Ninja dance jutsu) UK Players are getting Game Cards by the end of this week 90% of all WH Smith stores in the UK will have our Game Cards. Please let us know if you see any there! Friday the 13th Oh no!!! Check your calendars. We are less than 2 weeks away from another Friday the 13th! Forum Question: What would you LIKE to happen? Tagged ~Evo
