Interest Rate Shock! (posted 6:25)

In a shock announcement today the head of the Grophland Central Bank, M. O. Neybags, cut the base interest rates sharply. The basic rate of interest fell from 1% to only half a percent, while even more dramatic cuts were made in some of the banks high rate accounts. Mr Neybags said the action was necessary to combat rampant inflation across Grophland, but the move has left many small traders in disarray.

Following the most recent post link from the mesage menu now takes you directly to the post in question and handles the pagination corectly.

Bug Fix (posted 10:00)

Up until now the shop code has not correctly given new items a defence or damage value. This meant that armour, weapons, and healing seeds did not actually give any bonuses. This has now been fixed, and all other item creation code (fishing, ruins, butterfly hunt, grophtet, random events) has been fixed in a similar way.

New Items (posted 9:29)

Some new items coming today, as ususal, including some more armour. Look for them in Grophtown shops.

Bug Fixes (posted 5:10)

A few bug fixes here and there. Weapons now show how much damage they do, Groph details show how much defence they have from armour and you can't add descriptions to eggs any more.

New Items (posted 15:13)

A variety of new items have arrived today, hot on the heels of the weapons. Look for them in Grophtown shops.

Bug Fixes for 2 Player Games (posted 8:17)

Those of you who have tried the two player games may well have seen some bugs, these should now be fixed. Messages will be sent to the right people, games will not vanish mid way, ties are now correctly handled, and you won't see the notification messages if you are just watching the two player games page and letting it reload on its own.

First Weapons (posted 6:02)

The first two weapons have been added! They don't do much, but here they are, available in the weapon's shop.

Groph Display Bug fixed (posted 6:01)

A bug where the lookups of grophs with no items was totally broken should now be fixed.

More room for Grophs! (posted 12:57)

Now you can have up to 22 Grophs rather than 18! To make more room I inserted some new room types in the list (carpet and fake fur). This means that you should find yourself with the same amount of room as you had before but a different room. If you think there has been any problems with the room you now have let me know!

First Two Player Game (posted 17:56)

The first two player game is available as of today. Don't get too excited ... its just tic tac toe, but you should be able to use it to test two player games withking with each other.

Just look in the house of games!

Fairy Island (posted 17:17)

Yes there's a new island today! Its small but its perfectly formed. Have a look just north of the desert for the Fairy Island and visit the Healing Fairy.

Desert Food (posted 15:01)

Please note, the Hebbenet and Shens cake have now moved to a new desert food shop.

New Food Items (posted 14:09)

Just what you needed after the excess of Christmas and New Year, loads of brand new food items! Just look for them in the shops today!

Ruins (posted 9:40)

The ruins are now slightly cheaper (25gg instead of 30gg) and the chances of finding an object, and winning money are now both slightly higher. This is good because there is now a new artefact to find, a very valuable +4 charm mirror!

Ankh Picture Changed (posted 8:58)

The picture for the ankh amulet has been updated, hopefully this one is a little better.

Groph Contest Placings (posted 9:14)

When you look at a Groph's details you will now see a list of all contests in which they came in the top three (along with links to the contest results, contest owner, date and type). Note that, due to an accident, all old contests have the same end date.

Groph Descriptions (posted 13:00)

You can now give your Grophs descriptions (up to 1000 characters). Just go to their details page and enter the description in the text field under their picture (grophcode allowed). Other users will see these descriptions if they click on your Grophs' picture and look at their details.

Small Change to maze (posted 12:10)

When you complete the maze you will now see the map of the maze under the picture.

Changes to Lookups (posted 11:19)

There are some changes to user lookups from today. Firstly to save on space and server load the mini pictures of Grophs have been dropped, instead you can click on the Groph link to see the Groph page for that user. You can now no longer see another user's bottled grophs.

Also you can now add your own description to your lookup. You can set this in your owner details pages. Up to 1000 characters are allowed and you can use Grophcode to spice it up.
