    Hey, I'm back!
    « on: August 06, 2007, 12:11:22 am »
    Wow, This place looks great! It's had a huge overhaul since i've been here.  Actually, according to the forum, I haven't been here for about 40 years (see screenshot).

    Anyway, bugs aside, what's new to Layo?

    Well, for starters, if you've not been here since your (second) most recent post, you've not seen Version 3 yet.

    In which case, boy are you in for a surprise!

    Let me explain... no, there is too much. Let me sum up.

    Leanthar started V3.

    People were stupid, gave him a headache.

    Leanthar laid down the law told people to shape up.

    Then he revealed that he's working (with 22 other people) on a game for Layonara. A custom game... shveet.

    NWN Layonara says up as long as he can afford it *cough* donate *cough*, then it comes down and all efforts go into the game. This could mean no Layo for a while or it could mean it comes down right as the other one goes up. There are a few threads out there that have the details...

    Also somewhere in the middle of all of that, Blood was killed and dragons rule the world! Welcome back!

    (Head to Layonara Server in the forum to find the threads that explain everything and prepare to freak out!)
