Once again, Frelorn weighs in with the news of the week, including a reminder about this week's upgrade-related downtime as well as a tease about an upcoming patch tease:

Weekly Update 6/5/06
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello there everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend.

I want to start off with a reminder of this week's upcoming downtime on Thursday June 8th, from 4am EST - 6pm EST. This downtime is needed to replace and prepare the database servers for the upcoming world server upgrades. We are very excited about these changes and we hope you all are as well. I will do my best to keep you updated on the status of this downtime throughout the day; though I fear most of the updates will be as simple as "Everything is still on schedule and going smooth".

Let's get on to what we are doing this week. The team is busy going through the June event and making sure that everything is working and ready to go live. This includes the final runs at balancing things to the way we like, and making sure that everything is working correctly. This is the time that we get to run through all of the new content a couple of times and have some fun testing the new stuff.

We are also in the process of getting our designs ready for the July event. This is the time where we sit down and figure out where we want to go in July and how we want the events to unfold.

Unless something major is found to cause a delay, I will be releasing the June Letter to the Players on Friday, along with a little bonus surprise for the June event that we are working on.

That's about it for now. This is a busy week for us as we head into the June event, and as always if there is anymore news or updates about what is going on this week I will make sure and post it here.

Everyone have a great week, and see you all in Dereth!
