(The following was posted by DryWater on the Community board.) Dear friends, Today I have returned to once again serve as your Head Carnage Host. I am anxious to announce the following: The carnage team and all necessary stakeholders will immediately begin reviewing player suggestions regarding Push, Onyon, Set trap, and Sleep arrows. A request will be made for the Bloodlust Chaos league to be adjusted to match the stat requirements for the Riches Celestial league. A request will be made for the 24 hour Riches Carnage win timer to be reduced to 6 hours, matching the Fox Hunt win timer. A request will be made for a unique (Carnage of) Champions tournament branding for Elixir wars. Carnage of Champions tournaments for Legends, Ancients, Avatars, Celestial, Paramount, and Mayhem leagues will begin in August. A new large scale player-kill tournament, with a unique branding and unique prizes, will be announced (after final development and GM approval) in August for implementation in (hopefully) September. And finally, in the coming months, I would like the carnage team to gather with carnage goers to work on a single set of solutions to the imbalance problem(s) that new items have caused in some carnage leagues (Legends in particular). It is an honor to again serve as your Head Carnage Host. I look forward to working with this game's greatest asset--the players. Together we will accomplish shared goals and have fun taking the carnage system to the next level. Sincerely, Drywater, Head Carnage Host Sounds like a lot of exciting changes and improvements to PK events will be happening soon. Hells yes!

QUOTE (Musoyan @ Jul 24 2011, 01:00 PM) All I see are requests. It doesn't mean anything will change.They should have been "reviewing player suggestions" for the past few years when a majority of the players were voicing their opinions and concerns, not starting now when the game is essentially dead. Where were the head hosts then? Why were the players ignored for so long on certain matters? There are actually more players playing now then there were two years ago, just to squash that whole thing.

I guess you are right, since you still play and I don't regarding that. I just mean overall. No events. No GM and player interaction. No major updates. Everything just seems stagnant and lifeless.

Where were the head hosts then? Why were the players ignored for so long on certain matters? They are requests yes, but when you look at the situation itself, and how Drywater got there, I'm sure most of these things will get approved (that's not to say it won't take time to get them in the game). I'm surprised it too so long for the Archons to intervene. The Carnage Department has been in the [Content removed]ter for years. Same thing happened with WorldWalker a few years ago. Same thing, different head archon, so different friends.

Of course they should have done this ages ago. It's nice to things happening now though, makes me optimistic. and a post Doctor made convinced me to register so im excited to see these improvements come to life. especially raising chaos to celestial rank, I get to break out the rogue more often.

It's good to see you are able to take people's post and turn them completely around to say something completely different. I said nothing of that sort. The fact remains that a lot of the changes DryWater is coming in to do were requested time and time again and fell on deaf ears for years. I am simply stating facts. It shouldn't take someone with connections to Archons to come in and take over to get things done. What do you want me to sit here and post? OMG PEOPLE ARE SOOOOO HAPPY that after 4 years of begging, petitioning, nmailing, posting on the dreams board every week that finally something is going to possibly change. I'd rather speak my mind then sit here and lie.

I do however think that since Dalnum is out of the picture, things will hopefully pick up a bit.

Gona have to agree with Musoyan here.
Those changes werent made before. What makes you think they'll be done now? Kru still are ran by the same people.
It'd be nice if things changed sure. But if that was possible Nexus wouldn't have stagnated into what it is now.
Funny thing is all those changes can probably be done by a mere click of a button or a single string or boolean change in the code. So laziness is no excuse here.

However at the end of the day if positive changes are made as a result of the "links" it can only be a good thing for those who still play. -Corro

QUOTE (Cirran @ Jul 29 2011, 03:12 PM) People need to be grateful that people like Drywater are still even interested enough to spend time handling these jobs. I burned out years ago; most people do. Egomaniacs like Drywater? please...
