It's Here: The New Round Table

Unread postby protecyon » 05 Jan 2006, 14:50

As we leave the old Might and Magic universe developed by 3DO to explore the world Ubisoft is creating, it is time to reopen a new Heroes Round Table on the Celestial Heavens server. Unlike the old ForumPlanet forums, the new Table has a single login (if you are currently a member of this site, you are ready to post at the new Table), it contains no Flash advertisement, it is fully integrated with the Celestial Heavens news and page comments and best of all, it can be customized to suit your needs. The familiar forum structure, the moderators you know well and the Campfire games have been carried over to help you make the new Round Table your home.

The move was a very complex process. The various changes and the price we had to pay are all explained here. Please take a moment to go over it and familiarize yourself with the new forums. I would like to thank the creators of the new Table: Protecyon, Robenhagen, Gaidal Cain and Kalah, among others, who have spent hours working on the project right in the middle of the holidays. We will still be hunting bugs and issues during the next few days, but that doesn't prevent you from talking about the new Heroes game or participating in the Rage of the Carrots madness. That being said, welcome to the new Round Table, dear friends!

Congratulations on the new layout! I like it very much. It's very... Hmm... Maybe I'll call it "powerfull"? Yeah. I think it is.

I wonder if the new Round Table is going to have that Might&Magic inspired ranking system. Right now I'm a Novice, and that's definitely no unit from the game.

I'm currently in discussion with GameSpy regarding the future of the old ForumPlanet forums. Chances are they will remain in read-only mode for some time. At the moment, they're still open.
I'm on Steam and Xbox Live.

The linky on the top still points to the old RT - is it intentional?

Not really. I just cannot change it at the moment. It will be changed later today for sure.

All I can say is wow... totally uynexpected, and quite awesome.

Now, if I can just get the bugs I have been finding left and right with the Oracle League fixed, maybe I can get back on some kind of schedule.

No longer wondering about the ranking system... I saw several users ranked "peasant" at 50 posts.

Yes. You can also edit the comments via the forum interface, or even post from there (as I'm doing now).
