Probably around... 2009 or so.

But that banner still rocks.

I think the Gemstone comments are great, but I'm not sure we want to come across as having a "we're better than" attitude or targeting a specific competitor. At least not on the mudconnect site.

I don't think they'll allow animated ones, unfortunately.

Personally, I don't really think GemStone should be mentioned at all. It just gives us the appearance that we're constantly comparing ourselves to it, and any new players that join us after seeing that will do just that.

Yes, GemStone is one of the larger commercial MUDs out there that many of us wasted away years of our lives with, but there's a lot more out there in the MUD universe. We should prove that we are able to distinguish ourselves as a unique and independent MUD.
[GMCHAT Uyoku]: Octum is when the octumbunny comes around and lays pumpkins everywhere right?
[GMCHAT Rias]: Dimmes says "oh hai :) u need healz? ill get u dont worry thaum lasers pew pew pew lol"
[CHAT - GameMaster Rias would totally nuke Rooks]: Here's how elemancy works: The freeblegreeble and the zippoflasm have to be combined with the correct ration of himbleplimp, then you add the gargenheimer and adjust the froopulon for the pattern you want, apply some tarratarrtarr, yibble the wantaban, and let 'er rip!

Truth. CLOK is completely different than GS. Better in different ways.

For instance, you don't have to pay, since paying for a MUD is silly.

He mentions something about butterflies quite often. Does that count?

Do you want butterflies as your paycheck? I'm pretty sure Rias can give you butterflies in a net.

Excellent. In addition to being 10th, we are not so far from 9th place.

Guys, the ranks on Mudconnect were reset, so we really need to keep up the good work voting so that we can stay in the top ten!

My second try at a banner. This time a static image with a more vague 'let's go on an adventure' motif.
