The excitement is killing me... X_X
*gurgle* *grugle*


The ALL GAMES anniversary event starts tomorrow
(Friday) at 6pm EST. If you cannot wait until then,
join the team and me right here on Artix.com for
the "Play by Play" as we prepare for the start of our
1st ever cross-game anniversary event. I will be
updating the homepage continiously with
embarrasing stories and news from the
development rooms as it happens. Now that I think
of it, we have never tried to simultaniously update 6
major games with mega events at the EXACT same
time before. <dramatic pause> I am sure everything
will go just fine. Talking about things going fine,
thank you to all of you who have been emailing &
twittering me about about this ridiculous EbilCorp
Memo. Those of you on "the inside" over at
EbilCorp please relay this message to Chairman
Platinum for me (paraphrasing my favorite Doctor
Who moment) "This game network IS DEFENDED!"

I think EbilCorp themed updates will hit all of the AE games just so they can stir the pot more about the EbilCorp thing

if there will be rewards, must be for all, not just betas/whatever. It's the games anniversary, not beta/gamma anniversary

10th Anniversary
posted by Artix on 10/12/2012 9:37 AM
Play-by-Play
Tonight, at 6pm our 10th anniversary event will begin in ALL of our major games. Join me here, as I give you the play-by-by, a live news feed of the last minute craziness as the team prepares to launch the event.

9:30am Secret Underground Lab online.
Servers online...
Backups online...
Elevator online...
All systems check. 100%


9:35am Artix reporting for duty!
Thyton reporting for duty!
Yergen reporting for... (Hah hah, he said dooty.)


9:45am Thank you to everyone posting anniversary/birthday wishes to the game network on Twitter. Words cannot express how heartwarming it is to see your encouraging words. Especially since we are doing something completely new for our special event. Doing new things is always scary... but you have always had our backs. Thank you for being part of this and for supporting us!!!


10:00am A team members girlfriend baked us banana bread this morning. But it was not cooked. I realized this after eating a BIG bite of it. It is still in my mouth. WHAT SHOULD I DO!?


10:30am "Alina checking in!"
"Samba here!"
"Korin... erm.. here... wait, this isn't my bed...."
"Dage in the house."


10:31am The judging of the AdventureQuest 3D Design a Monster art contest is now taking place! So many good entires -- this is going to be impossible.


11:00am Checking in with the game teams! Today's event will be spanning 6 games. This really is the first time we have tried doing this... only 7 hours left until launch!

AdventureQuest Worlds - 97%
DragonFable -*waiting for response*
MechQuest - *waiting for response*
HeroSmash - !Problem! New feature issue
AdventureQuest - *waiting for response*
EpicDuel - *waiting for response*


11:30am Um... that was weird. Someone just ran into my room to tell me there is a black limo with an ebilcorp logo on it circling the building above the lab. Did one of you go all out on some sort of practical joke?


12:00pm The limo was gone before we could get a picture. So weird! Anyways, only 6 hours until the launch of the event! It is really cool seeing all the game teams pulling together for the same thing. HeroSmash is having some technical problems... nothing like having less than 6 hours to rewrite core engine functionality. Going to help!

12:30pm You know, for pretty much the past 10 years we have been doing non-stop weekly releases. Once we started, we never actually had a week go by without one. How funny would it be if tonight's 10th Anniversary event was "Surprise, no release!" LOL. Note: We would never do that! We did do the opposite once though. Remember the week in DragonFable when the team announced they were just releasing a single fish. People were so mad! But when they caught the fish it took them to a surprise complete underwater zone.

12:30pm All game teams are reporting that they are close. That means... IT IS STORYTIME! What was your favorite memory from our crazy adventures together? The time Captain Rhubarb renamed 10,000 AQWorlds players's names to "Captain Rhubarb" and we had to declare a mulligan day? (A "do over day") ... or perhaps that time legendary AE artist and ninja Thyton (although he sorta looks like a Spartan. Like a... Spartan Ninja.) was creating the dragons for DragonFable and he showed them to and I replied, "Great! Now... let us go draw some GOOD Dragons." He was really hurt. He thought I was saying his dragons were bad and we needed to draw better ones. But what I meant was, he drew a bunch of EVIL looking Dragons and we needed to make some GOOD-GUY dragons. /facepalm.




What was your favorite memory/story from our game community?

Only 4 hours until the anniversary event begins! But this is not the only major event coming this October. It is a non-stop chain of releases starting with the most romantic tale of gamer love. Next week, Rolith (DragonFable/Oversoul Programmer) & Alina (AQworlds co-lead) who met while working here at AE, fell madly in love, became engaged (remember his Old Spice spoof proposal in DragonFable?) and are to be married in real life & in game next week! I was pretty surprised when Rolith asked if I would be his best man. It is traditional for the best man to throw a "bachelors party" before the wedding. That will be... Thursday night. For those of you who have known me for a while, you may think "How in the world is Artix going to throw a good batchelors party? Artix does not drink, does not smoke, would never do drugs, and basically lives a PG lifestyle." The answer? Life threatening danger. Rolith has no idea what I have in store for him... and is scared out of his mind. So right here, I am promising YOU, that I will post the full story and some pictures from his bachelors party before the wedding next Friday. (Please remind me, you know how crazy things get here, ok?)

While we are on storytime, I would like to post probably the most interesting & controversial story from the business side of our gaming history. This story is 100% true. Back in 2007, a lot of big companies came trying to buy Artix Entertainment. A lot of people are shocked when they find out that I turned down a legit, written offer for $84 million. This actually happened. I love our games and our community, and I would never give it up for anything. Maybe this is why I am more proud than ever to be with you and the team are celebrating the 10th Anniversary today. There were a lot of battles back in those days that I was legally not allowed to share with you. Maybe one day I can write a book. But you have always had my back -- and we did ever get into trouble, I know that the team and I could count on you.

Switching topics...

Sometimes we say and do things in the "Artix Universe" that are fantasy. For example, we say that Geopetal, the game lead of DragonFable, is a rock. Of course in real life she is not REALLY a rock (she is a pebble.) Things like this are just plain fun. Well, fun as long as you play along that is. Sort of like an inside joke between friends. But it is funny how pretty much EVERY one of these inside jokes is based on something real. For example, before joining the team, the girl who is Geopetal was actually a Geologist. 100% true. Just something to think about.

Read the same thing just a few minutes ago on AE

$84 million holy shh.
This is the definition of staying loyal to your passion.

I hope this release will blow everybodies expectations away, would be the cherry on the gigantic cake.
