Thank you Alphonse, IceThorn.

We were faced with some amazing challenges; bathrobe mages and castrated clerics were very much outdone by warriors and paladins :D

That's damn impressive. And the small amount of lag was easily manageable. You guys have got server-care down to a science! Thanks guys, I wish I could have stayed for the end. (I arrived at the wedding about 4 minutes before I was supposed to start playing 8) )

P.S. I still have my Defender's Helm, by the way, let me know if it should be trashed or given to someone.

You can keep the helms (we got a shout by our lovely dm's).

My thanks goes out to all the DM's. Great fun, only 2 crashes..
just awesome! :D
