Welcome to Post Beta (... oh, and double RPP weekend)

[Mooncalf]

Today marks the end of beta. Yayyy (and there was much rejoicing). This means that we are no longer in test phase.

Yes, there's still much to be added to the game, and no it's not perfect, but we're now at a stage where we can start to bring in more players of the game. You'll hear more about how we're going to do that soon, including extra rewards for bringing in active roleplayers, and we should start seeing an increase in activity levels in a week or two.

In celebration of today (well, tomorrow in some parts of the world), I invite you all to OOC chat, for an all day party whenever you're available. I'm going to randomly drop in occasionally to give $50,000 game cash rewards to the last person who spoke as I enter (from 10am GMT to 2am GMT the following morning). Also, we're giving DOUBLE RPP for all roleplay posts made during this weekend. In addition to this, all posts in Around The City now give normal RPP rewards (double normal, for this weekend), and will continue to do so indefinitely.

During the following week you'll see more wiki canon articles go up, fleshing out details of the fictional universe. After that, we begin work on mastery powers, while advancing the story at a more interesting pace.

Lastly, thank you all for participating in beta. I really mean that. You've been a great support, and a great help for us while creating and maintaining this rather huge project, and there's no way we would have developed this game for years without such a great audience.
