[Update] Nuku says, "Gifts! Every time you give $5 or more in a given month, it will now give a gift to you. It can be anything that is marked One Use or Drug in type from the elite store that costs 5 or less. If it costs less than 5, there is a chance to get more than one of them. This is not a chance thing. The first time you give 5 or more in a month, you get this, period."

[Update] Nuku says, "The buy premium currency page now informs you of the once per month gift and how to get it if you still qualify for it at the moment (That is, you didn't already get it for the month)."

[Update] Nuku says, "There is now a 1 makolunardollar item called the Party Energy Restorer. Simply use it to give everyone in your party, including you, 3 energy. It is one use. If you are alone, it will refuse to work."

[Update] Nuku says, "+request/vote now shows in +request"

[Update] Nuku says, "Training respecializer fixed."

[Update] Nuku says, "For the positive or negative, your size no longer affects hp."

[Update] Nuku says, "Size, for the positive or negative, does not affect defense."

[Update] Nuku says, "Avoidance buff. Normally, enemies that are higher level than you enjoy a +10 accuracy status per level of difference. Avoidance now reduces that by 2 points per. Avoidance now helps you avoid things, even tough things. Especially tough things."

[Update] Nuku says, "Fixed a major loot bug in parties. I'm leaving debug on for now, just in case, so it will announce when someone starts doing loot and finishes the loot cycle, just in case."

[Update] Nuku says, "Fixed a bug that prevented salvage missions being done by the web from progressing."

[Update] Nuku says, "Missions, daily and quest, should now be fixed."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "Wikibot should now be repaired."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "A new, modernized library has been created for dealing with the MediaWiki API ($lib/wiki). It currently implements a basic subset of features and can be easily expanded in the future."

[Update] Nuku says, "Overkill now has a new benefit to add to its existance. Every point of Overkill causes any overflow damage you do to occur in 20% less time, so overkill 1? It will happen over 8 rounds. 2, 6 rounds, 3, 4 rounds, to a minimum of doling it all out in 1 rounds."

[Update] Nuku says, "Repeats, as in hits after the first, as now silent."

[Update] Nuku says, "* are"

[Update] Nuku says, "In a grand victory for spam-free combat, repeats will now only talk about their repeatyness after the target takes a hit with no repeats on them and give a nice condensed report of all the strikes instead of a blow by blow as it happens. Enjoy the peace."

[Update] Nuku says, "DoT told to shhhhhh. No more lingering damage reports."

[Update] Nuku says, "Fixed bug in repeatattack damage."

[Update] Nuku says, "In theory, repeat attack reports will come out once every 2 rounds if there are reports that have not come out."

[Update] Nuku says, "Covered repeat hits should be quiet now."

[Update] Nuku says, "DoTs will now give status reports every 2 rounds, much like repeats."

[Update] Nuku says, "To make life easier and more streamlines, you can now +poll, +poll # or name, and +poll # or name=vote. /view and /vote are now superfluous, though will remain, just in case."

[Update] Script-Kitty Fauna says, "Longtech's employees have been instructed to slash their prices. (They now ask for scepter instead of crown for pens and photos. Nothing has changed mechanically)"

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.1: The experimental multi-threaded subsystem for dealing with MySQL connections has been rewritten. Steps have been taken to drastically reduce the latency between MySQL query and response for most programs. This also introduces a fairer scheduling system that should keep up better when the game is heavily loaded."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.2: Corrected a bug introduced in the last update where the new thread handler could cause a lockup that would prevent the game from shutting down properly."

[Update] Nuku says, "Repeats are now rounded in magnitude, so 1.5 becomes 2, instead of 1.5, which was, before, basically counting as '1, but a bit faster'"

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.3: MySQL query queue will no longer be erased when a program terminates. This allows programs that make queries (but do not expect a response) to function correctly. This should fix the problems with PAGE & POT."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.4: Fixed a theoretical deadlock created in the previous update. (No restart at this time -- will be pushed live in the next update)"

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.4: Fixed a logic error in the MySQL queue handler that was introduced in the last update(s)."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "Fixed a minor bug in the who command that would cause display corruption for people with long line-width settings."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: Hashing functions will now try to make use of OpenSSL (if it's available) instead of using their own implementation. This shows roughly a 10% speed increase in most cases."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: Roughly 4x performance improvement in STR2HEX function."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: (and thus hash functions that rely on it as well)"

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: NULL characters are now allowed in MUF strings (currently only works with some primitives). STR2HEX, HEX2STR and ITOC have been modified to support this."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: The mush_format_escapes and strict_mush_escapes @tuneable options have been removed."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.5: Fixed some inconsistancies in the MUF_PROFILING system. Function calls will now be profiled even when a program terminates abnormally."

[Update] Replace Cartridge Hinoserm says, "ProtoMUCK 2.1a0.6.6: MUCK debug messages now escape MUF strings instead of attempting to display unprintable characters. E.g: ("AA00BB") HEX2STR > ("\xAA\x00\xBB")"

[Update] Nuku says, "Combat should no longer care if you are idle."
