Your weekly updates

• Connection info: The old connection address of playnga.cloudnord.net is coming to a swift end. If you have gotten the new IP address then you are good. If not, then update your connection info to play.gilded-aegis.net. In a week or less the old connection will no longer work. (An earlier version of this message showed the actual IP. If you updated to the actual IP you don't have to change anything, however, the play.gilded-aegis.net pings faster.)

• Plugins disabled: The shulker plugin that allowed opening them in your inventory has been disabled due to a critical bug that causes custom items to vanish without a trace. If you are able to find a client-side solution, these will be allowed. The daily quests plugin, as well as chestshops, have officially come to an end in lieu of the global market plus and NPC quests.

• Trial by combat: Uplink has spared no expense in creating a very grand custom trial chamber. If you haven't had a chance to check it out, you'll want to visit Argos at the Dark Auction house to get started!

• Voting: Offline vote rewards should be 100% functional again. DeadDefiance and I (Mostly Dead) spent the better part of the day on this issue, which required a bit of reverse engineering. However, all tests are currently pointing to "good to go." Site 4 will be updated with a replacement in the coming days since it is the only one locked behind a hard 24-hour timer.

• HALLOWEEN: Halloween keys will be part of your daily login rewards within the next 24 hours. These keys will be redeemable at the Halloween Crate located under Cerberus. The items featured are from the Inferno set. None of the items have enchants, you will have to work to build them to OP status yourselves by working the merchant system between the headhunter, Manbat, and the enchanter, Timmy. The armor still carries the unbreakable attribute, and the wings do still grant fly, however.

• COMMUNITY TOWN IS IN THE SPIRIT OF THE SEASON!: Thank you all for your help in making it a scene to die for. And a very special thanks to our Staff of the Month winner, Eve, for spearheading the project. Everyone should go check it out!

• We are looking for up to two junior admins: Please check https://discord.com/channels/1188347085167271936/1193799386497560698/1289308386588098591 for details.

• New NPCs at spawn: One may find their doppelganger in town. Come explore. You never know who may pop up.

• Contests and Events: We will be announcing some contests and events during the month of October to win Skeleton Keys, which can open any past cosmetic crate. If you don't have the reaction-roles, make sure you set it up so you don't miss out! These keys are SUPER rare and will be the only way to obtain past items that are out of rotation beyond private party sales in-game.

• Movie Madness: Each weekend in October I will be streaming a themed movie in https://discord.com/channels/1188347085167271936/1214816679012466708. Feel free to join or come stream your own for the masses!

Ok...that is all for now :)
