We're running a little project here and would appreciate it if some people thought about various tweaks/improvements that would be good for the Prophecy/Secret Ops engine. Slightly technical things such as capship explosions are what we're looking for, not plot/story suggestions. Please send your ideas here.
We should be coming out of a bit of server turbulence now. Thanks to a whole big bunch of concerned people sent us emails about the site today. Apparently there were some disturbing server glitches midday Wednesday. Some sections are still missing, and the Chat Zone may still be giving an error message when people try to post. Hopefully we can get that one fixed later today and we have backups of everything else. Just sounds like lightning struck our machine in Texas.. Kris dug up a couple error messages.

Several major gaming sites have posted articles on Richard Garriott's departure from Origin and the changes in their games lineup. Avault contacted David Swofford and tried to clarify the situation. You can find their feature here. There's one unbelievable comment in that one. They say Avault just learned a month ago Privateer 3 was canceled. That's whacko. Gamespot's news network says that good news came about from the shifts: UO3 should be released more quickly that it otherwise would have been. I can't wait. You can find that article here.
Alternative Sports correspondent Gerald Hopkins reports. This year's Mech Ball Finals, to be held on the planet of Hades, has had to be delayed due to a shortage of Power Loaders, the game's most important piece of equipment. The game, which involves two teams of 15 wearing Power Loaders trying to score a 'go' by carrying a two tonne Brikcrete ball across the opponent's go line, can only be started once more imports of Power Loaders have arrived. 'Ye canna git a suit fa love naw money', wailed Chunky Stewart, captain of the reigning champions Jambo Pagger.
