I think that also coincided with the fallout of Lands of Acheron. Myself, Pelordaes, C.Pooser, SirGunky, DocHoliday, DiamondEdge, Chongo, Goldwin Blacknight and a whole slew of players came over in October 2004 when Aliester recommended this place. Now we don't even look back, despite his leaving about a year ago. I'm sad that Gunky never got into Layo though, his characters were hilarious and his metalfactor at least a 9.6.
