Graal2001: Status update?

zell12 · #1 11-18-2003, 12:01 AM

Well, I see only a few people ever on debug now. I seen cheetos once yesterday, Tseng occasionally, Kramer, Shadowless, scott, and mabey Gryffin once in a blue moon. I don't think any work is getting done, except for Shadowless' projects... In my eyes, I think he should be CoManager or something. Not even that, I think Lance should be on more frequently, and high active staff.Me and shadowless have talked about a few people who should be hired now.

I just think that G2K1 is in another slum.

Over my dead body.

Hey, I said it once... I'll say it again.

Make Zurkiba Manager

...

Q: Why am I a good choice?
A: I have an iron fist for production, I have no life, I dont work anywhere else, I'm not a global, and I have experience in reviving dead things (Resources: 2k1 Zormite ; 2k2 Forest)

kthx

It seems that progress is going slow on kingdoms, but there is progress, or so i hear. I'm sure they are trying their best. But also, you can't blame Lance for not being on...

Shadowless = Co-Manager? mesa scared now :P

Run a virus/spyware scan, you may have a trojan/spyware eating up your bandwidth.

I come on about once a day, except weekends- then it's a total variable. There's simply not much I can do- I'm there for the players, not production work -_-.

AND IT'S GRYFFON. -_-

Gryffin is my evil twin.

More like your good twin.

I can't blaim Tseng for not being on? He is usually on, mabey not when I am. But he does from what I can see, spend more time on GK(dev) than on G2K1. And Kingdoms in a "slow" pace is right, but is it getting done? Nah, Shadowless is doing it all it seems. Thats ok, because the magical ghosts of graal will do everything.

Lance · #12 11-18-2003, 06:31 AM

I spend most of my time on both, excal. I oversee things going on at both servers - There is not much I can do for graal2001 right now, short of hiring more people, and I'm attempting to work out something for that. Problem is, the standards are too high for most people, and those whose work's good enough already have jobs in places and aren't interested in another job. It was a blessing to have Scott and Shadowless come to help us out - I'm putting them in charge of their respective divisions (gfx and levels). I'm coordinating the projects - what more can you ask from me?

I've explained this several times before, and I'll explain it again - it's a temporary slump caused by a perceived lack of things to do. When kingdoms and the new quests/jobs are released, people will find enjoyment in the server once again. Keep in mind - the server's community-driven; when the community isn't there, it's not much fun, more people leave, repeat. So, when kingdoms come back, more people come, people find it fun and stay, community's larger, repeat, etc. It's some pretty basic principles.

But I, a player, have seen nor heard any news of production or any attempts to edify the server. It's been like two-three months and there is still no kingdoms. 2k1 shouldn't have been released without the kingdoms, it would've been fine to release them the week later or so... but not a couple of months.

So 2k1 has prolly lost alot of it's potential playercount.

There, I disagree. Babylon went for having 10-13 people to being (mostly) 3rd place on the server list. And G2k1 has a reputation that most servers do not. When kingdoms are released, there won't be any less amount of player coming for them then if kingdoms was released a month ago...better late than never.
