Where is my weekly update?

[mansa]

Hey everybody.  I just want to know...

Has anybody gotten the last three weeks episodes of, 'the Armageddon Weekly Update' ?

Because I haven't.  And I feel like I'm missing out.

No, it's not being filtered by my spam filter.
No, I've already signed up, and got the last couple years worth of them.

Yes, I know I'm cool, but, not -that- cool.

So.  Perhaps it's just the holidays, or, is it that I have too many underscores in my email?

[ashjpd]

Hmmm...
Not sure why you haven't got it. I know for a fact that I didn't get this week's update, today is 1/5/04, so I don't know. I don't think it is that big of a deal, maybe you can unsubscribe and scribe again. If I don't get mine next week then that is what I am gonna do, let me know if that works. I have gotten the past weeks updates, I hope that helps.

Oh yeah, there might be to many e-mails in your inbox, so it couldn't fit. Like not enough memory, I think that is what happened to mine. Shrug*

[Count Emo]

I have not gotten one since 12/8/2003.

[Angela Christine]

I didn't get one this week either, but I hadn't noticed so I wasn't freaking out about it.  Until now! Thanks a lot Mansa.  

Here are the last couple I got, to console those of you whose email accounts drank too much eggnog over the holidays.

New spell added (Nessalin)

Whoa.

[Delirium]

Damn, reading stuff like that always makes me so curious...

[Anonymous]

I'm going to guess its this:

The threaten spell, when cast, causes your target to be unable to flee, trapped in by a psychic barrier until they give you what you want or combat ensues.  Any attempt to flee by the target warps them to your position and combat begins.

All guilds get this spell.

Delay: After, for emotes and interaction.

Help_Guild_Ranger, Help_Guild_Warrior,  Help_Guild_Pickpocket, Help_Guild_Burglar, Help_Guild_Assassin, Help_Guild_Water_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Void_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Wind_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Fire_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Shadow_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Lightning_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Stone_Elementalist, Help_Guild_Psionicist, Help_Guild_Sorceror, Help_Guild_Merchant.

[ashjpd]

I got it today, 1/6/04, I guess they were late this time.

[creeper386]

As I said. Mansa is a complete loser. I've even gotten this weeks.

[Carnage]

I'd guess that the updates of the spells are fine-tuning them after that discussion of warriors whooping magicker asses.

[jmordetsky]

Wait,

Am I not getting a joke or is the help_spell_threaten implementing the recent threaten thread?

If so where can I read about this?

[Delirium]

You're not getting a joke.  

[creeper386]

HAHAHAHAH.


Creeper

[Cuusardo]

Mansa didn't touch the sender properly.  That's why he hasn't been getting them anymore.

[jmordetsky]

Doody...
