KAG Gather – Matchmaking Service on IRC

5 March, 2013 Tags: king arthur's gold admin

Just dug up this little gem on the forum, it needs a little more love to become a reliable service, but with more patronage I’m sure it’ll get there!

If you’ve ever used a gather service ingame, you’ll already know the gist of it – if not, basically you join a chatroom, tell the bot you want to play with a special command, and when enough players are present, it matches you all up with a link to a game that you can all join.

It’s a little more organised than just jumping into a public game, which guarantees that you’re playing with some more serious folk. People looking to get good enough to join some of the less open clans may wish to use it as a training ground!

Forum thread: HERE

Thanks to tmewett5 for building and maintaining the service.

API Issue

1 March, 2013 Tags: king arthur's gold admin

There is a known issue with all API calls currently. This will impact an increasing number of players and servers over the next few hours due to the SSL certificate expiring. This will impact all attempts to authenticate, join servers, and so on. Additionally, you will start seeing SSL certificate warnings/errors on the forums and other KAG sites using SSL. We should have this resolved within the next few hours and will keep you posted.

Arthurian League Reminder

11 February, 2013 Tags: Arthurian League, competition, king arthur's gold admin

The ArL is still going on, and has 24 matches remaining at the time of writing. Be sure to tune in to matches as they’re organised to see some of the best clan players duking it out for top position.

They’ve also got a site together where discussion can be posted, and hype can be had. Bookmark it while it’s hot, and be sure to give your feedback to Freddex and rest of the ArL crew on what you’d like to see in the league.

Get involved! Who knows, maybe your clan will be able to take place in the next competitive KAG league 🙂

We’ll continue to post ArL news on facebook and twitter, but I figured some frontpage exposure wouldn’t hurt 😉

Fire video coming soon, pictures in the meantime.

We know you’re very much interested in what fire looks like; we’re still working on the effects a little and want to show you something very much representative of what you’ll get to see. The below shows the destructive capabilities of fire left unchecked – including a hapless builder caught in the blaze (seen burning to the bottom left of the second frame).

The fire spreads over time to flammable things, and can be put out with buckets of water – if you get there in time. Fireproofing structures is much advised, with regular stone sections separating each wooden section.

Of course, it is much easier to gather wood… so you can trust that your enemies will slip up sooner or later 🙂

Hope to show you more soon (maybe by the weekend!)
