They have been working hard on EntropiaPlanets integrated Wiki, both in the visible spectrum, as well as behind the scenes! Without these two dedicated staff members, the Wiki would never have been what it is today! Of course, I'm talking about our Wiki Gurus, RAZER and Tass.

The Wiki is as 'young' as our forum. In the beginning, when we integrated it, our goal was to have the Wiki tightly connected to the forum and its content - as a dynamic source of information - and at a place, were you only need one single password to access both!

We were looking at the empty Wiki page thinking: "Cool, now what?", and funnily enough, it did not fill itself in. I don't believe we ever imagined the amount of WORK and HOURS and more hours it takes to enter data into a Wiki, to make it as useful as possible.

RAZER and Tass joined EntropiaPlanets and offered their help. And very soon after the Wiki took form and new awesome things were added. Today the Wiki is not as empty as it was, and the guys are still working a lot to fill in what's needed. It is difficult, of course, because new things are also being added to the game all the time - with new planets, new missions, and what not - but with common help, and hopefully a... [Read More]

Our friends at Al Bawaba reported yesterday that Jordan based Beladcom (Beladcom on Twitter) apparently signed up with MindArk as a planet partner. The idea is to create an Entropia Universe planet tailored specifically at Arabic gamers, and incorporating the Arabic culture and background into the gaming experience, as well as providing Arab language support.

Beladcom's General Manager Talal Asfoura explains that the concept being developed by the company is unlike anything currently offered in the regional online gaming arena. "There is plenty of untapped potential in the world of Arabic online gaming," says Asfoura, "and one of our prime objectives at Beladcom is to take the current user experience to an entirely new level. The planet concept we are developing builds within MindArk's premium... [Read More]

HYDRA TAKEN DOWN ??

As a result of the decoding of intercepted messages, it was determined that something was to occur at 17:00 MA time on Wednesday, August 18th. The coordinates deciphered were 864122, 83488, 127 which is between Minopolis and Fort Pandora.

I don't think I've ever seen so many ubers gathered in one place before, and of course, they brought their Vehicles. Perhaps for a fast getaway? Nah ... ubers don't run!



All of the big societies were represented, including a lot of well-known Entropians. Approximately 200-300 people (maybe more) were gathered waiting patiently for something to happen.

DJ Stave was covering the event on Atlas Haven

As you sit down in the bar, you cannot help but wonder how the botnet conversion is going. The barkeep nods in your direction, but when you ask if there's been any updates, he just points at the TV. The screen shows images from the battle of Hadesheim taking place. A big red message scrolls along at the bottom of the screen notifying whoever is watching there have not been any updates yet. You sigh, and order yourself a stiff drink.

In a dark corner, you notice an odd man sitting all by himself. He has the looks of an intelligent man for sure, but there's something very strange about him nevertheless. You beckon toards the bartender and ask if he knows who the odd stranger is. He replies he doesn't exactly know him personally, but apparently the guy is an old-FBI agent by the name of Cale Dooper. The guy went bonkers after his girlfriend mysteriously dissappeared in the woods one night.

Then suddenly the TVs image changes. The camera is back on the presenter, who just gets some fresh papers handed to her. You urge the barman to turn on the sound. "..eaking news. Apparently the initiative that was launched by the private organisation MLP, and the goal of which it was to upgrade the EntropiaPlanets network has succesfully been completed. As... [Read More]

Adopt a Newbie Foundation
Change in Management

It was with great excitement that I started up the Adopt a Newbie Foundation back in January, not having any idea how things would work out - only having the idea for years about helping newbies toward a better start in game.

Before the Foundation, I tried to run the School of Lootius - but time wasn't really my strongest friend and I had to dismiss that plan.

The Adopt a Newbie Foundation however, was well met by the community, and after Dalas joined the Foundation, it became a real success.

Unfortunately, time is still not my best friend, and I cannot see that we will be better friends in the future either due to a lot of other work related to the forum and game.

Dalas has really proven to me and the Universe that he has exactly what is needed to run the Foundation. He is a friendly, helpful guy with a great sense of humor. And most of all, he is incredibly loyal towards the foundation, the newbies, the societies, and not least of all to EntropiaPlanets.

I am therefore very proud to announce, that Dalas will take over full management of the Foundation as the new ANF Master.
