I started Bear’s BBS 10 years ago.  Hard to phantom the last 10 years. I started this board cause a buddy wanted to play mud again, then it was boring with us 2 so I sent a message to all my old mud buddies from Midnight Madness and Entconn.  Then the word started to spread so I went on mudinfo.net and posted something up.  Then I started to play with editing and fuck it was much easier with nightmare, I used to hex edits back in the 90s.  Then people started to pour even faster.  Now 10 years later it’s a very well known trusted board to play on.  And this all thanks to all the players thru the last decade that would donate their time and money to make this board the best one out there.  And that I’m very grateful to all of you other there.

Let’s see if we can make mud last another 10 years!

With that mushy stuff aside, I am runing a Mob Hunt in edited realm to celerbrate.  Don’t know what that is?  Well I will take 3 bosses anywhere from cave bear to szass tam and place a very limited item on it to drop.  So get out there and hunt them all.

We have reset set the stock realm, Edited and Mudrev(Brad’s) has not been reset 🙁 Votes were not strong enough in any of the options.  But they did get a room sweep.

So strap in and get ready for the fun of a fresh clean realm!

I have got the server up and running finally! I had a lot of issues with my router dumping ips and routes.

But update your dns “ipconfig /flushdns” to get the new addy.

Ohh no what will you do with no mud!!! You might have to go spend time with your family!

The server is offline for a couple days while I move. Check back here for an update when the server back online.

Wow have to dust this bitch off been a minute.

So I will be moving on the 21st of Nov. So I will be taking the server down on the 20th, and looking to have it back up on the 22nd. It will be with a new ISP so the IP will be updating. I will update the dns as soon as I can. With this move I will have more power and faster speeds so maybe the lag some have seen lately will vanish.

So after enabling it correctly we had a nice Mob Hunt. 3 of the 5 cat skin overcloaks were found. The 5 monsters that had the drops are ancient willow, hydra, mammoth rot worm, werewolf, and Prince Melegruant. Hydra and Prince Melegruant were the 2 that did not get hit.

I do miss doing these, just hard to stay up late to enable them. But I hope you guys had fun ransacking the realm.

It’s been awhile since we done one so we are doing one for the 4th.

For those that don’t know, I choose 5 random bosses across the realm and add a special drop on them. This item will drop once for each of the 5 mobs. The boss can be anything from mad wizard to Szass Tam. And if your wondering what item…well that a surprise! Go kill some bosses and find one.

Also like always don’t be a dick, you get one to drop stop hunting and let others have a go. Try to start at the hardest you can hit and go down, gives a chance to the smaller guys to get one too.

EDIT:
So I fucked up the mob hunt. I have corrected the issue and will continue the mob hunt thru the 5th.

So today I updated the edited realm, it has a couple bug fixes and expanded the invasion system.

First lets talk about invasions. I have added 2 new ones to happen in lost. The real dark elves and real duegars can now raid Lost City. Also added bosses and a token drop to the new and old invasions, bosses are random so won’t always get one. If you find the bosses they have higher exp, and drop a token. You take this token to the guild master and you get a chest. At now I will keep the options secret, but astral diamonds and jagged mithril are possible.

Another big change is the the row out from the reef to Aquarious. To stop the spam, I have added a delay to the command and a chance you take damage on a failure. Another one some of the big boys will like, you can now replace your neth mask. Go back to the guy and ask him “mask”. And the last big change is you can now sell mithril/crimson feathers at the junk yard.

There was a couple other small bug fixes but my memory is failing me now.

So next Saturday I will be re-banging the current TW game, and the new 24/7 game. Yep I have added a new 24/7 30k sector game. It has has another new alien, I started it up today to see how they progress and test them out before I re-bang the universes next week. So come check them out and play around before I reset them next weekend.

So finally got this mod finished. Took some time with 600 plus rooms with half those being mazes! Also the quest completed and hopefully fixed the bug with the last soul/hide issue.

In this mod we open up the portals if your on the quest, and you get to jump the planes and explore the great beyond. This mod kinda geared to start playing in 60-80 range, but to complete most likely have to be 100+. Hence the lvl 100 cloaks. Yes the reward for this one will lvl 100 cloaks to upgrade your tattered lvl 50 cloaks.

So get out there and explore the Astral and Chaos planes.
