ELEPHANT MUD NEWS


Elephant Mud News from 1999

Important Changes to Bounty System
A major change to the mud's bounty system has been announced, yielding a system which deals with many previous abuses, while being considerably more realistic. Full details can be found here, and on the Main Board in the Adventurers Hall in Drakenwood. (29th June 1999)

Elephant Hardware
The hardware upon which Elephant Mud runs was successfully upgraded on the 10th May 1999, giving Ele considerably more raw power. At the same time, the operating system was upgraded and the filesystem laid out in a more optimized fashion. Any feedback as to the effect this has had on your connection would be gratefully received. (29th June 1999)

Address for Elephant
Please will all players be sure that they are connecting to the mud with its NAME (ie elephant.org 4444) and not its ip address (eg a.b.c.d 4444) This address can change (in fact it just has!), while the name will always be accurate. People connecting via the dotted ip address may encounter problems in the future. (29th June 1999)

Extra! Extra!
The first edition of Drakenwood's newest publication is now out!
The Drakenwood Times can now be purchased from Aaron in the Town Square, and another seller continuing to sell the Daily Trumpet as normal, but down nearer the financial section of town. This new paper offers a slightly less (dare we say) scandalous view of the Realm's news than its older sibling, and will be concentrating on slightly different issues. Buy now while stocks last! (29th June 1999)

T-Shirts
Can it be? The T-shirts, at last a reality??
As scarey as it may seem, we have tracked down a supplier able to meet our high quality requirements, and placed an order for a large number of shirts. Jaq has kindly supplied the initial capital for this venture, and thus will be responsible for receiving payment for these highly desirable items. All profits will go back into Elephant Mud, including a donation to an Elephant Conservation charity. See the main board in Drakenwood, or here for full details! (29th June 1999)

Web Pages
You can now have your personal web page address displayed on 'finger'!
If you would like people to be able to see your www address, and drop by to your little piece of virtuality, you can set it so that it appears in 'finger'. Just type 'chfn' and follow the prompts (and make sure that your other details are set at the same time!) (29th June 1999)
