Hello, everyone!

I am departing from my usual mode of operation in several ways, but most visibly by announcing tonight's quest in advance. Starting at some time around 8 PM U.S. Eastern time, I intend to begin a quest that will start (as most of my events do) right within the bazaar in Sigil.

The quest is designed primarily for goodly characters between levels 10 and 20, but anyone is welcome. I expect that this will go for a while, as it is a bit more elaborate than some quests, so be sure to have your beverages and tasty snacks ready!

A couple of notes:

1) This event will span several areas, including a few that are normally very easily accessible and popular for combat. A few area transitions may be disabled tonight so as to avoid interruptions, as will a few of the spawn triggers. They will return with the next server reset. I apologize for any inconvenience.

2) There may be a few server pauses. I apologize to anyone who is not directly participating in the event. I promise that I will keep them as brief as I can.

3) As usual, party chat will be considered IC for the duration of the event. This enables me to be far from the PCs and still hear all dialog. I ask that those of you who are not participating in the event minimize use of party chat for the duration of the quest if you could.

4) Running ahead of the group is an excellent way to end up in the sarlacc pit.



Enjoy!

Whew! Well...that was a mammoth session.

Thank you everyone who decided to attend part I. I apologize for the lag. The turnout was great, but the number of people made this a real challenge, both for me and the server. You were all troupers, though, and I am grateful to you for bearing with us both.

For those who plan on seeing this through to the end, I intend to complete this on Sunday, January 3rd, at around 1 PM Eastern U.S. time. The rest will likely be much more straightforward, as the heroes now have a good idea of what they need to do.

To anyone who elected to remain in Hulmere Keep, will you please PM me if you get the opportunity to do so between now and then? I would like to update you all on what happened in the keep while the others were off finding Counsellor Auren.

Thank you again for your attendance, and your patience.

I too apologize for the lag. I noticed the server reset before the event, and right now I need to manually change something after it started to make it lag less... when it restarts next time I will try make sure it manages this itself in the future...

The major lag issue has now been resolved... any lag from now on is "base" lag, which might improve with bandwidth upgrade (that I plan to test next weekend)
