There are a lot of new items and NPCs in the past ??? years. Since the parser hasn’t been updated in a long time, you won’t be able to submit anything unless you edit it to an older format. If you can’t figure out how to do that, or if you muck it up like a newb, you can send it to me. Y’all know my email. I’m also on Discord.

New fields in item IDs won’t be able to be added unless someone wants to take over that. If you feel that’s your calling, talk to game admin, not me. For now (and probably ever), we can just add any extra info in the Comments field.

At least we’ll be able to link new items to old and new NPCs.

Please send in-game mail to Katran if you require assistance with your annwn.info account, including:

• password reset

• new user registration (the automated thing is broken, lol)

• your username and email are so bad that you’ve been mistaken for a Russian bot and I’ve blocked all posting access

Game admin are arranging an event for us to all actually log on at the same time! Tell all your friends about it!

The “first monthly reunion night” will be held on Monday, January 19, 2015, starting 6 pm CST.

More infos on the MM site and on the Facebook and oh, here is the Facebook event, RSVP!

We’ve added a PK ladder for fun. Obviously there’s no perfect way to rate PK performance. Is fleeing a valid tactic? Does a victory 10 vs 1 actually reflect skill?

The rating is calculated using the Elo system, so the difference between two players’ rating reflects the probability of each player winning. If two players are rated +0, it should be 50/50. If someone is rated +240, they should have an 80% chance of winning.

I’ve excluded all PKs where the players were of different class (hero vs archon, 2nd vs 3rd class, etc), and where the level difference is greater than 20 (not including archon levels).

Suggestions for improvements (other than doctoring the results) are welcome.
