Another non-mandatory upgrade:

Chief Doctor – aehm

Sunday, November 27th, 2011

I was talking with Baal and I just found out that I messed up, and the doctor position was supposed to be open to any Race (Human or Vampires), not just Human.
Yep, to make things fair, I will auto-add the people who applied, but we will restart again by allowing the vampire candidates to signup as well.
Sorry…..just a bit of misunderstanding.

Also I will save the votes of those people who have already voted, ….. They can change it later if they wish, but if they don’t vote again, their current votes will be still counted as valid.

SGS HUD/Meter v 3.15 Release

Saturday, November 26th, 2011

No need to upgrade it, unless you want to 🙂
I am releasing a series of bugfixes/releases, but nothing that require a mandatory update yet.
Anyway, in this release:
a) there is a new gesture “/group” that allows you to send short private messages to anybody of your own group/sabbat (via HUD). Useful when your are planning a raid or for group actions.
b) the time you hold the bag of money is now 10 minutes.
There are other things, but I forgot now 🙂
Upgrades are free and available at the entrance.

Rules about Stealing

Saturday, November 26th, 2011

Very important Note:
Stealing relinquishes any RP rights you previously had.
The idea of stealing is instant action
If you decide to steal from a till or someone’s pocket then you had better be prepared to run or fight.
Stealing has up to this point been unfair, the thief has gotten away with the loot.
Now you are welcome to steal as much as you like, but the victim or their friends or any passer by is welcome to get the money back by any means possible.
So I say again:
If you steal you are a target for anyone with a weapon.
They do not need to RP they only need to attack you to get the money.
Once the 10 minutes is up, you have succeeded and are no longer open to attack.
At this point all players must respect your combat mode.
Don’t steal if you do not like to fight to keep it!
This goes for those who steal the money back off you!
Please remember, as was explained in the previous note:
Owned Prey and none combatants cannot steal.
Sorry this is just a part of the game.

Cash Till Upgrades

Saturday, November 26th, 2011

All the cash tills have been upgraded.
If you wish to steal from them, you will need to upgrade your HUD/Meter to v 3.14+

SGS HUD/Meter v 3.12 Upgrade

Friday, November 25th, 2011

This upgrade is important and mandatory.
A major part of the game has been added and it is about Theft and Pickpocketing.
Free Upgrades are at the Entrance of the SIM. Click on the Upgrade Sign.

 

We have updated Till theft and Pick pocketing!
If you now indulge in either of these activities the money you steal will attach itself to you in the form of a Money bag.
This money bag will remain attached to you for 5 minutes.
After the 5 minutes is up whoever has the money bag will receive that amount in their bank account.
While the bag is attached you are open to attack by any player who wishes to try to retrieve the money.
Any player who defeats you will get a menu with the following options
Steal it
Give it back
If you are the owner of the money you should choose “Give it back” and the money returns to your account.
If you are not the owner of the money you should also choose “Give it back“, at which point 10% of the Money will be deposited in your bank account as a reward for being good.
The owner will receive the remaining 90% .
If you choose “Steal it” the bag will transfer to you and a new 5 minute round will begin for you as the new thief.
The usual report of the theft will appear in the HUD
Please note:
Only Default mode, Warrior mode and un owned prey can steal from tills or pick pocket.
