Aardwolf MUD

Aardwolf Birthday Celebration!

For those that missed earlier notes, today was the 7th anniversary since Aardwolf was first opened to players.

We've had a lot of fun today, many imms have run special trivia games and other competitions, and I believe there are more events planned for tonight. We have had double xp on and off through the day, and double qp for almost 24 hours. Here's a few more cool events that happened today:

- We broke our 24 hour average record, from 496 to 555 (and still increasing. Check the 'online' command.)

- Our max online ever record was broken, from 673 to 853.

- During qreset, the command was used 8145 times, 7798 quests were given out and questors around the realm handed out 215,540 quest points.

- 847 special limited edition 7th birthday trivia point tokens were given out.

- Coincidence, but the voting cycle on topmudsites ended and Aardwolf was #1. Help us get off to a strong start on this cycle by regularly using 'ivoted' (See 'help ivoted').

Thanks to everyone that has taken part, and to everyone that helps make Aardwolf great by being a part of it. Here's to the next year ... cheers!

Lasher.
