Hello, World of Caenyr!!!! Well my last subscriber update was towards the end of 2010 so there is
definitely a LOT to cover since then and over this first half of 2011! No further delays, let's go!
First thing I have to say is HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! We have hit 9 YEARS as a community and persistent world!
Wow, time really flies when you are having fun. Almost a decade and we still have a great base of players, many new but also many from the earliest days still with us as well. It's incredible the amount of RP that has
been accomplished and the amount of friendships that have been forged over all these years. I'm humbled and honored to be able to lead this great group of people and to have been witness to your shaping of our amazing world. Here's to many more years ahead of us, Caenyr!
Speaking of our amazing community, several player conventions have taken place since my last update, one in Texas and one in Chicago where yours truly attended! Photos the two conventions have just been posted to our
MySpace fan page along with a couple of older ones that still didn't have their photos up, so go check them out! I was personally able to attend one of the conventions and I had a blast! You guys never cease to amaze me
when I get to meet you in person! In other player news we have had a lot of new players join our great world and many returning players too. It's half a year's worth so bare with me and apologies up front for anyone that I've missed (I'm sure there are some!) But here it goes, welcome to World of Caenyr!
NEW PLAYERS: Ruckuss, Amondaris, Glyve, DirkBlackwood, DeHayala, Circe, Zipper, Aranka, Arabeth, Blackmoore, bankai, Gildur Orebreaker, Dalisia, Nourah Ebonsoul, Vidar
RETURNING PLAYERS: Starwulf, Krystal Hawke (Sin - yay!), Tel, Abbi, The Voices, Konar, Gallows, Kall,
Kusbana, Losriel, mattias/Thomas, eszereld, Bywater (Ananias), Tyrus Whitefire, Exnostromos, White Kitsune
On a sadder note we have had to say goodbye to Lili Ral'orn who has left Caenyr. You are already missed, hope to see you return one day.
If you remember in the last update I announced the World of Caenyr Evolution (WoC Evo) initiative, to quickly bring some community driven changes to the world so Caenyr evolves with the times and remains a fun and exciting place to play at. I'm happy to say the iniative has been a huge success so far, already driving over a dozen significant improvements! Great job to the previousFellowship of Caenyr, the selected group that represented the
player population for the first 6 months of WoC Evo and helped establish these incredible changes. The next Fellowship will be selected soon and I'm sure will bring the same level of enthusiasm and ideas that the
other group did. I look forward to how we continue to grow!
There have been some pretty big changes in the DM team. First off we have a brand new DM Supervisor, DM Dangermouse and he is already kicking major arse! Secondly I have modified the DM team to allow for new candidates to act in full DM fashion the moment they are selected to join the team. These "junior" DM's have all the authority a Dungeon Master normally has and can start bringing RP to the players immediately! Their only
limitation is the level of RP responsibility they are allowed to take on, such as the playing of Caenyr deities and so forth. Only after graduation from the DM Academy do they become "senior" DM's and earn these privileges. With this change we have already added several new DM's to the team and the impact has been immediate! The junior squad is already on the server brigning some awesome roleplay to the players!
I can't post an update without mentioning the INCREDIBLE work Brutus and his Builder Team have been doing!! EVERY month we have module updates now, most of them pretty significant and all of them appreciated! Besides a ton of hak additions/improvements to enhance the aesthetics of the world and options for the players, and updates to many of the popular areas that already exist in the World, the team has recently given you the Sepich
Stronghold, Goldhaven, Sea Battles, Persistent Storage, implemented manyof the WoC Evo's and so much more! Can't thank you guys enough, you rock! Check out this month's screenshot of Goldhaven to get just a small taste of their amazing work. You'll have to get in game to experience the rest!
As always we have a new poll, some updates at the Caenyr shop and don't forget to follow us on Twitter! (Updates can be seen on the twitter widget on the homepage.) Until next time, Caenyrites!
