WOW!! I saw 34 peeps online last night..That is freakin awesome!

I would like to thank everyone that participated last night..It was very tough for us all..I mean running an event for over 20 people is not only hectic for us DM's, but also you guys,you did great.Through the crashing,lag,and trying my hardest to keep you all entertained,I think we all did pretty well..And I also saw some great rp last night!!

Now I would like to apologize to those guys in the UD. I felt a little bad leaving you folks down there and Im very sorry,but tonight you guys get to play a very big role in the event and I think everyone will enjoy seeing what happens with that..Once again UD folks,Im sorry and you know I have bunches of love for you!!

So see you guys down under!!

Here is a few screenshots I got of you guys when you were starting out. -jlf2n

I had a good time, thanks for collaborating, it made for a good night.

Surprisingly enough, all the load times didn't seem prolonged at all when I transition despite the hordes of players. The huge battles also went without a spot of lag.

Yeah it was pretty good. I think last night there was one lag spike and a bunch of us got kicked off,... but it happens.

One thing I noticed during one crash was that about 12 people were standing on one side of a transition and about 12 were on the other side fighting mobs. The guys fighting on the south would make it hard for anyone transitioning into the southern area from the north.

A few PW admins have told to keep mobs away from transitions to reduce crashes. That same thing might have been in play here as well.

Either way it sounds good. I'm sure Haunted and the other DMs will agree its so nice finally having a good server.

To be fair to the DM's the spawns were not near the transitions to begin with. Our party was in the process of transitioning over and I had just made it into the gnoll area when one or two PC's jumped the gun and spooked the encounter. Predictably, the mobs swarmed on one of the PC's and that character of course ran back to the transition where the rest of the party was standing.
