Due to a lack of time, we have dropped the chess project and have resumed work on Loradon 3.0. The overall progress is now at 46%.

Nothing much to say other then it feels good to be working on Loradon 3.0 again. Starting a new project can be fun, but there's a lot to be said for working with code that you have 3 years of familiarity with.
Since last Friday I've been working to fix all of the currently known bugs so that nothing can sneak up on me while coding the upcoming features. So far I have wiped out all but 1 of the them, and that last bug should be fairly simple to fix.
Community Spotlight
Written by Jay and pifreak
As the Loradon Online and Stick Adventures Online communities continue to merge, more members have begun to be active on the merged forum. As time passes, many members of both communities have begun to feel more relaxed with one another and are continuing to flourish. Also, as more active members accumulate on the forum, the members have started to play the game which they did not try before (SAO players began to play Loradon and Loradon players began playing SAO). This joint community is becoming more active, and once Loradon 3.0 is released, the community will begin to vehemently thrive with many more members.
As the IRC channel, #HAL, accumulates more members, the SAO community is experiencing less abusive language as members begin to feel the need to report bad language and poor playing (such as SKing). Also, the Portuguese-speaking players have decreased their playing and have virtually disappeared from the community. Due to a Brazilian free-ware site, those Brazilian members had been inhabiting the game for quite some time, so Pifreak, an SAO moderator, prompted Invisible to create a new version of SAO to inhibit these players from downloading the game from a non-official SAO website. This new version would force players to go to the official site by prompting them with a message as they attempt to log on to the game; if they cannot speak English, the site will be difficult for them to move around in, creating a mostly English-speaking community. We don't wish to discriminate, but the overflow of foreign language chat was driving away English-speaking players.
If you don't mind me asking... what does Loradon offer?
Tue Nov 04 2008 8:35PM ReportI assume you are referring to our new project code-named "Loradon 3.0" and not our old project "Loradon" which is no longer updated.
We have not released much information on Loradon 3.0, but we are hoping it will be a fun and innovative game. Other then that, I can't say, but keep reading our newsletters and you might pickup a bit of information here and there. You can also check out our forums at http://www.ifthensoftware.net/forums/ and our IRC channel (server: 69.59.199.16 port: 6667 channel: #loradon). I also make use of Twitter as a quick development blog, which can be found at http://twitter.com/ITS_Invisible

Tue Nov 04 2008 10:50PM ReportSorry, but as I said, that information is under wraps at the moment. I can say that it will be a fantasy MMORPG, but I can't say much else.
