Re: Board Logo

It's been 5 years and nobody's suggested anything, so I'm just going to remove this as an announcment. If you have ideas though, I'm still open to them.

Your Forums Have Been Assimilated

We have added their user and topic distinctiveness to our own. Your posts will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. Strange Tides was previously a separate phpBB system owned and operated by Wyvern. The maintenance headache of keeping two forums up to date, while minor, still bugged me. So no...

Maintance Downtime: Complete

My hosting provider needs to perform some upgrades to the server that hosts Silver. There will be an up to two hour downtime at 2015-03-04 3:00:00 AM UTC. That's 10 PM Tuesday night EST and 7PM PST. I see no reason silver shouldn't come back up cleanly after the downtime, but if it's still unavailab...

DELETED ACCOUNTS

Due to a small wave of spambots, I deleted a variety of new accounts. If you were a real person, I apologize. Just sign up again and post something here so you're not caught again if another wave comes through.

Re: Server Upheaval

Welcome to the new forums! If you're still seeing the old server at silverinsanity.com, then you should be automatically redirected here to the new forums. You may notice a few differences to the forums, as I've updated to the latest phpBB.

Re: Server Upheaval

Greetings users! A new server has been prepared and is currently accessible at http://new.silverinsanity.com/ . Note that the forums there are not currently active. I only want one forum to be available at a time. This weekend I will do the grand move. The process will look something like this: Disa...

Server Upheaval

I'm in the process of updating the server. In theory there should be no interruptions in service.

Q: What's the difference between theory and practice?
A: In theory, there is no difference.

Moved Forums

I had to go and poke the forums with a stick, and as such have archived the old Patterns of Chaos and the Game Creation forums. All of the posts are still there, but the forums can no longer be posted to. If there are any old Amber posts you still need to update, I can copy or move them to the new g...

Board Locked

Since Patterns of Chaos is no longer an active game, I have disabled posting to the forums. Feel free to post to Anything and Everything or check out the new game, Shadows of Amber.

Re: 07.06: Underwater Ball

Benabik spends a bit walking through the crowd, making small talk with a number of the locals. Since this is his first social appearance since returning, he's making an effort to at least say hello to all the notables. He seems to stop longer and chat with those magically inclined. After disengaging...
