1/23/05 - 5:30am - Limit Breaks now ignore the Silence Status.
1/22/05 - 6am - Omg new newsbox post! The Mountain Is Solitary had it's shot cost reduced to Zero and the text changed a bit. Avalanche had it's shot cost reduced to 2. New Brawler limit breaks coming, Gunslinger techs and breaks after that.
10/15/04 - 5pm - More shiney changes. That's what the newsbox is for after all. ^_^ Weapon Techs have now been moved down to their own section. Monks will be getting new limit breaks, and some skill changes to make way for Geomancers. Monks will probably see their Awareness skills shift to Sorcery ones. Further, plans are in the works for a Martial Arts tree for Monks. Thief Fortune Techs, as well as Brawler, Geomancer, Gunslinger and Sniper techs are coming eventualy. Further bulletins as events warrent.
Edit/Update: Gunslingers and Snipers will probably get collapsed into one archetype.
10/9/04 - 2:40am - New Weapons Monthly Issue up! Refresh the main WM page if you need to, I changed that page to an issue index.
10/4/04 - 1pm - Edited the Power Break and Armor Break rules for their new durations (dicussed a while ago in game) and to clarify the language a bit with the current status rules.

10/3/04 - 5:10am - Several changes, some of which you know about already. Magic Elements page radically chaged. Changed the organization of the GF page to clarify which abilities count against your limit of 4. Added the Chi-Sense ability, and tweaked the Short Out ability.
9/23/04 - 3:29pm - The look of Illina's journal is updated, and so is her profile page. Go check it out! ^_^
9/23/04 - 3:45am - Illina is for having a Journal now. Go friend her, she wants to be friends with you! Lini's friends get cookies!
9/20/04 - 4:55pm - IMPORTANT NOTE! The game will either be delayed a day, or delayed a few hours at the very least, because mom got a movie to watch. Sorry about the short notice! Will also put a note in the chat room, but there's only one person in there right now. Will do a PvP thread too.

7/30/04 - 7:40pm - More updates! Changed lots of the Special Techniques, including Blue Magic, added new Tamer Techniques, updated the spell damages and spells by element catagories. Changed the Ninja tempate slightly. Changed the dodge score slightly. All the changes for stuff should be done, but if you find referances to Sorcery AV for damage or duration, let me know. Also, let me know if you have a problem with the way your character has changed and you want to ask about moving some points around.
7/30/04 - 1:45am - Big mega super update! The rules on Sorcery, Dodging, Move/Evade, Sorcery Damage, And Gun Damage changed! Contact me for details. I don't have everything updated yet, but Character Sheets should be up to date. Speaking of character sheets, I created a sheet for Illina, and an entry on the spellshards page, and an entry in the character's page. I think it's about time.
7/27/04 - 5:30pm - The GF page has LOTS more info on it now, about the abilities and how long it will take to learn them! And the text Timber Maniacs isn't done yet, this newsbox reminds me that I need to do that, along with a dozen other things. Anyway, hope you like the new info, go check it out.
7/23/04 - 8:50pm - Timber Maniacs Issue just in! Go to zee magazine link! The text version isn't up yet, but it will be, give me time.
7/22/04 - 7:55pm - Added a page on the Status Effects to the Rules page. Poison is now MUCH more dangerous, Haste more useful, and Slow has real teeth to it. I will be changing the relevent spells soon as far as durations and such, to reflect the changes, but for now simply refer to this new page for all status effects. You can find it here, if you don't want to hunt for it on the rules page.
7/16/04 - 6:20pm - We have a Livejournal Community now. Yup.
7/16/04 - 9:55am - Added Xp. Also, Infernus learned Vis-J, so Fnord, you need to pick a new ability and decide what you want to junction to Vis.
7/14/04 - 9:10pm - Wow, that was a lot of work! But the first Weapons Monthly issue is up! If you can't see the "magazines" link to the left, refresh. Note, the files are HUGE! I'm putting up a plain text version now, but again, if you click through the image version, it'll be pretty, I'm way proud of the images, but they're ENORMOUS!
7/12/04 - 10:35am - Added XP and AP from last night. Rook's GF learned Thief's Eye! Added a section to the GF page so you can see what your GF is learning, in case you forget.
NOTE!: I need to know what spellshards everyone got last night. I really need to be writing these things down when they happen, but I didn't last night, so I need to know what you got.
7/11/04 - 3:25pm - The new mission is up on the 'Current Missions' page! Also, I did XP and GF AP before I went to bed last night. Ezekiel's GF, Terpsichore, has learned Dex-J. Jobrill, you need to contact me about the next ability to learn, and about what you want to junction to Dexterity. If there are are any questions or someone wants to spend experiance points, I'll be avaliable for most of the day / evening today, and probably in the chat room at some point.
7/10/04 - 4:00pm - Added Base Damage to everyone's sheet! Also updated junctions, for those of you that have extra shards that affect your junctions.
7/10/04 - 12:41am - I just updated the NPCs of Note page. There's a quicklink index, and some new faces on there, plus I updated Teriel's entry to include the fact that she's a sorceress.
7/9/04 - 11:30pm - Added some accessories. These aren't all the possible ones, they're just some examples. You can't buy most of them in stores. Time to tackle some of the NPC / World pages. Oh, and the accessories are on the world page. Icarus is making us some cool images and other neato toys for the site. He's cool. You'll see them on the pages eventualy.
7/9/04 - 5:45pm - Updated the Abilities page, adding the following abilities: Anti-Magic; Bounty; Cult of Personality; Crushing; Final Attack; Long Range Magic; Medium Range Magic; Multi Magic; Omnimagic; and Spell. Also updated the Combat section and the Magic Rules section to give information on normal spellcasting range.
7/8/04 - 10:22pm - Wow, HUGE update finished. Go check out the rules index page, and look at the "Abilities" link. It's chock full of good stuff. Leadership Special Techniques for Gunblade Specialists, and Gambling Special Techniques and Limit Breaks for thieves are on the way.
7/7/04 - 11:45pm - Pretty substantial update. Changed the current mission page to create an archive for the past missions, and put the Field Exam briefing there. Changed the Xp System, and will soon update the character archetype pages. You now have to spend Xp on your special techniques and limit breaks, but you can also learn them before you reach astronomical levels of AV in the appropriate skill. This should make the non-combat skills more viable.
7/6/04 - 9:30pm - Eria's journal is updated. I also changed the magic system yet again, people will recive additional Mana for getting all the spellshards and completing spells. Contact me for additional details or a toy surprise.
7/6/04 - 3:45am - I just updated the Magic System page. It now costs only +5 mana per missing shard, making it a little more possible to cast spells without all the shards. Hopefully this will make magic more useful, and actualy allow spells to be cast without finding every single shard. The penalty to the casting roll remains unchanged.
7/6/04 - 2:10am - The Spellshards link to the left works now, I need spellshard info from you people, I know I'm missing a LOT of them, I only put down the ones I knew for absolute sure, but as soon as you get me the info, I can get your character up to date. Now you can track spellshardy stuff, yay!
7/6/04 - 12:10am - Updated Xp totals as of the Field Exam.
7/4/04 - 3:33am - Field exam was a great success! For those of you that I forgot to tell before you left, all participants got +10 hp, in addition to the other stuff. Sheets are updated with new ranks as well. Yay you!
7/3/04 - 7:15pm - T-45 and counting. Luca has a character sheet, you can get to it from the characters page, or here.
7/3/04 - 6:45pm - Field Exam starts in 1.25 hours. I'm already in the channel, and on AIM, if people need or want to talk about stuff before things get going.
7/2/04 - 7:22pm - Just created a page for information on other human militaries, from the SeeD perspective. It's here. Eria's journal got it's first entry today. Also, I saw spider man, and it was good.
Also, I'm open to playing today, but it doesn't have to happen. If anyone wants to get in some role play, or grab spellshards or something, this is your last chance before the field exam.
7/1/04 - 11:00pm - We have a livejournal circle now. All characters are required to keep a journal, but players that post at least once weekly for their characters will get +1 xp per session or per week if per session gets out of hand. You can find Eria's journal here, and she's friended with all the people I know of that have journals so far. It's a great way to develop your character, and you get a nice tangible reward for it.
7/1/04 - 7:40pm - Updated the characters page. That was a long time coming.
6/28/04 - 12:54pm - Added the information and orders for the Field Exam. This information will have only been given to Sahn, but he is free to share it, and all players are free to look at it, even if they don't have In Character knowlege of it yet. You can grab it at the link to the left, called 'Current Mission'.
Edit: The map image from the Field Exam Info page has been reduced via HTML, if you save the original image you should end up with a larger copy of the map, if you're interested. I also added Drill Fist to the Blue Mage Special Techniques section.
6/28/04 - 3:45am - Discovered a typo that made the entire Selphie bio dissapear from the NPC page. Fixed that, you can now see what she's been up to.
6/25/04 - 10:00pm - People requested info on the rivals, and here it is. I'm about to link it to the main index page as well, under NPCs of Note. The SeeD brass are also on there. Eventualy, I will add important political leaders, other SeeDs you've met, and other NPCs of intrest, but I think I'm done with that page for the night. The people's names aren't quicklinked yet, but they will be eventualy, to make the page easier to navigate. For now, you can just scroll down. ^_^
6/24/04 - 8:10 - I've got the GF AP thing all set up, so if you haven't already, contact me and let me know what you want your GF to be learning.
6/24/04 - 7:20 - Added the Xp and GF Compatability Tracker. It's linked from the top of the characters page as well.
6/24/04 - 6:05 - Added a Experiance and AP page. That page also links from the rules index. Changed the Guardian Force Summoning rules. Guardian Force compatability is not an issue. Even though it seems like summoning shot cost increased, for practical purposes it remains the same for everyone's character. It's just that now it is possible to drop below the standard shot cost through GF mistreatment. -- Also added an explanation for Sirgy's special techniques on his sheet.
6/24/04 - 5:30 - Gave Sirgy a Character Sheet. It can also be accessed from Ehlric's character sheet. Updated Ehlric's character sheet with some Sirgy stats. The scroll bars work, yay!
6/24/04 - 4:30 - Changed Tamer Special Techniques Heartbond and Soulbond to include junction information. Will be statting Sirgy up next. Plan on making lots of little updates today to make sure the scroll bar on the newsbox works.
6/24/04 - Yay, there's a newsbox. Updates to the site and the like will go here.
