New Weapon Type (posted 8:58)

A new type of weapon has been added today, the reflex weapon. A reflex weapon triggers automatically at some point in your opponent's turn. For example a 'reflex - hit' weapon triggers when you have been hit. The first new reflex item is the Fire Shield.

Reward for Gabriel (posted 6:18)

Duckiemonster's Groph Gabriel has been kidnapped by Grophamun! She is currently offering a 5000gg reward for any Groph who can rescue him! Any Groph who confronts Sellara or Nekhefus (and wins) will get this reward, so go and enter Dr Hawawawas' contests now to be in with a chance!

Security (posted 11:34)

The recent behaviour of a user, who was trying to hack into and mess up the site, has made us implement some security upgrades to the code of Grophland. If anyone notices any errors as a result of this please let me know. Also if anyone sees anything suspicious, be sure to inform a moderator.

Defeat Sellara and Nekhefus! (posted 8:48)

Dr Hawawawas, with the help of brave players who found teh Book of the Sands, has found a way to defeat Sellara and Nekhefus. If you want one of your grophs to challenge them to single combat for the fate of Grophland, enter the good Doctor's contests!

New Plot (posted 16:01)

Evil mummies free in the desert, Sellara and Nekhefus rampaging around Grophland, Grophamun threatening to take over all of the world! In case you've missed it a new plot is well under way. Two evil mummies, servants of Arch badguy Grophamun, have been released from their centuries old tombs, and no one seems to be able to stop them! What is the secret of the desert? Who will stop grophamun?

New Armour (posted 15:28)

Some new armour has been added today for Female Grophs.

TERROR IN THE DESERT (posted 5:04)

Reports are coming in of some sort of disaster in the desert! Famed archaeologist Doctor Hawawawas has apparently been rushed to a doctor's tent for medical care, and no one seems to know exactly what has happened to his dig. Desert nomads are leaving the area in droves, and they are telling stories of some sort of monster coming out of the sand! What's going on!!

New Combat Action (posted 13:38)

A new default ability has been added to combats, concentration. This will give your stats a small boost for 5 rounds.

COMBATS UPDATED (posted 10:50)

The Combat system has had a major overhaul today. You can now add a stake to combats when you issue the challenge, both players pay the stake and the winner wins the total. The display has also been changed. It now shows the description of your items, as well as how many times they can be used. Items in use are hilighted, and tell you how many turns of effect they have left. Items that have been used the maximum number of times are shown in grey. The new system also means you can now stack different items with the same effect (such as two shields). Previously you couldn't do that.

Titles (posted 6:32)

All the titles that lost their names have now been changed to a new set of names. In addition a slew of new titles are coming to the castle today!

Archaeological Dig (posted 15:23)

Famed Groph Archaeologist Dr Hawawawas has recently been taking part in a top secret dig in the desert. This dig is so hush hush that even the location of the site has been kept hidden! However rumors now suggest that Dr Hawawawas is close to some massive announcement. Speculation is rife as to what he may have discovered, but as yet no one knows for sure. Keep your eyes open for any further news!

New Pets (posted 15:05)

Two new animals have been added today. The Bafft is a sweet, shy, little animal that makes a fine pet. The Hungry Kebos is an answer to everyone's prayers, it only eats Splats!

New Items (posted 11:05)

The following three items were contributed or inspired by kokiri3.

These items were not.

New Books (posted 6:03)

A couple of new books have appeared in the bookshop today.

Splats (posted 16:26)

The Splat random event is now a little more rare.

New Potions (posted 16:22)

The new potion rules need new potions, so here are some!

Potions changed (posted 15:37)

It has become obvious that many Grophs are at the point where its much better to enter contests, or use potions, than train. Potions are a particular problem, since they have a fixed cost per point of stat bonus. As of today stat altering potions (Brain, Speed and Thorn) have a maximum stat of 100. They will not work on Grophs with a higher stat. Look out for new potions that will!

OOOPS! (posted 15:52)

Due to an error, the custom names you may have given to items have been reset back to their original names. I appologise for this.

New Weapons (posted 13:28)

A lot of new weapons have been released today, so there are a lot more options for the top fighters. There are also a few more basic weapons for beginning fighters, some very powerful one shots for rich warriors, and some new defensive items as well.

Tic-Tac-Toe bug fixed (posted 11:15)

A bug in Tic-Tac-Toe that allowed you to play over other people's pieces have been fixed. People who have been abusing it to beat people can no longer do so.
