- 11-December-04 : Elven Preserve
- Norich informs me he has heard stories of adventurers stumbling onto a small,
previously hidden area in the southern forests just south-east of Duender.
He thinks it to be some form of preserve, run by a friendly bunch of elves.
He has heard though, that it is accessible only to those small in stature, or
those with the experience to overcome the problem in finding the entrance.
Feel free to wander down there and discover the secrets within.

We've got some content-updating to do now, so let me know of any outdated

work before we can add them though, patience...

- 24-June-02 : Piper's Retirement
- Yeah, yeah, I'm way overdue for an update. However, most things just aren't
going to get done by me at this point. I've retired from the mud. As a parting
gift to the web site, I've finally fixed most of the boards on the boards page
to link to the current board. The exceptions are ones that were added after I
wrote the code that did that stuff. Goodbye.
-Piper
- 5-November-00 : Updates
- The class and guild pages have been updated with the October boards.
- 10-October-00 : Updates
- The finger script has been updated to no longer give the "Nature's Mistake"
on a wizard's status. While amusing, it was a bug. It's also been updated to
no longer yield the puke green background.
- 8-October-00 : Updates
- Ok, yeah, it's been a long time since the last update I made to the web site.
Sorry about that, my summer got pretty hectic, and I'm just starting to getting
around to reassembling things. The class and guild archive boards are now updated
with the most current archives available, and I'll be trying to do some more changes
soon.
- 2-May-00 : Donator Page
- We now have a page on the web site with the information on how to donate to AA.
In addition, you can now donate with a credit card! Credit card donations are
handled through PayPal, and if you're not currently a member, joining is a great
way to earn $5 for you, and $5 for AA! (details on how to use us as a referrer
are on the donation page.
- 1-May-00 : Online and Upgraded
- Due to some miscommunications between us and Inreach, and to their restructuring
of their colocation facilities we ended up being off the net for about a week.
While this was an inconvenience for everyone, it did also give us a chance to do
some planned upgrades to our server, and we're now on a much faster machine.
Details of the upgrade can be found on Arpeggio's status page for now. Many
thanks to the efforts that Arp went through to get us back alive, and many
thanks to the support of our donators who enabled us to do this upgrade in the
first place!
- 9-April-00 : Updates
- Added the February and March archives to the class and guild pages.
- 5-November-00 : Updates
- The class and guild pages have been updated with the October boards.
- 9-April-00 : Updates
- Added the February and March archives to the class and guild pages.
- 22-February-00 : Arch of Map and World
- Buxley has stepped down from the position of Arch of Map and World due to
time constraints. Scarecrazy has replaced him.
- 6-February-00 : Updated Design
- Ok, I've been playing around with some of these things to highlight links that
your mouse is over, and I'm curious what people think of the current incarnation
(ripped right from the w3 organizations html references). Drop me a note to say
what you think of it. If you don't like it, let me know that, and if there are
other methods you prefer, or whether you just can't stand any method. Depending
on the answers I get, the site may go with one scheme or another.
- 6-February-00 : Updates
- The class and guild archives for January have been linked in.
- 29-January-00 : Boards Now Viewable
- The ability to view the current postings on the boards is now available. I'm still
working on getting pages for all of them created, but you can find a complete listing
in the boards section of the website.
- 16-January-00 : Mortal Council Section
- After months of sitting on it, we now have a section dedicated to the Mortal Council.
Most of the information here was assembled by Dracul, and he's also supplied some other
info I'll be adding to this section, so look for future updates to that area.
- 2-January-00 : Updates
- Ok, for once I did this in a timely manner, the archives for December are now linked.
- 24-December-99 : Updates
- After a long delay, the October and November guild and class archives are now linked.
- 18-October-99 : Updates
- Ok, obviously it's been a while since I've updated things, but I'm hoping to do some more
updates here in the very near future. Things in store are updating the version on the java
telnet client, a section on the mortal council stuff (put together mostly by a former council
member, Dracul), and some stuff in the wizards area. Hopefully I'll also make some progress on
eliminating some more of those pages with ugly green backgrounds.
- 18-October-99 : Updates
- Added the August and September class and guild archives (finally).
- 5-August-99 : Updates
- Added the July archives to the class and guild pages.
- 11-July-99 : Updates
- Added the June archives to the class and guild pages.
- 13-June-99 : Updates
- Added the May archives to the class and guild pages.
- 23-May-99 : Updates
- Ok, as some of you have probably figured out, I added the last couple of months of archives
a couple weeks ago. I've also made some changes to the graphs that show up on class and guild
pages so they update more correctly. Jerusulum was apparently overlooked for a long time on the
administration page, she's been the Arch of Education now for a while. I'm a ways behind on the
email, so just be patient, I'll catch up on them one of these years.
- 1-March-99 : Updates
- The class and guild pages have been updated with links to February's archives.
- 9-February-99 : Arch of Law
- Arpeggio has stepped down as Law arch, and has been replaced by Malire.
- 3-February-99 : Updates
- The class and guild pages have been updated with links to January's archives.
- 3-February-99 : Updates
- Ok, as many of you have pointed out, the year is no longer 1998..
- 2-February-99 : AA's 7th Anniversary
- Today marks the 7th anniversary of Ancient Anguish!
- 16-January-99 : Administration Changes
- We've had a couple of changes of administration lately, and I'm only now catching up.
Paldin has returned to his primary duty of Balance, with Arpeggio replacing his duties
as Law Arch. Real life pressures have kept Sully away from the game, and she's now been
replaced by Buxley.
- 16-January-99 : Recent Downtime
- As many of you noticed, we were down for a couple days. Apparently the problem was that
the ethernet cable had gotten disconnected, and our ethernet card decided it didn't want
to talk when it got reconnected.
- 11-January-99 : Board Search Page
- Thanks to the work of Blackvelvet, there have been some significant advancements on the
Board Search Page. You can now search for posts based on such things as author, date,
level of poster, and words in the title. Many thanks to Blackvelvet for the work she did
here to implement one of our most requested features!
- 10-January-99 : Updates
- Ok, the November and December archives are finally on their respective pages.
- 10-November-98 : Updates
- I finally added Fir's page, he's certainly been badgering me about it enough (probably
because it took so long for me to do it).
- 5-November-98 : Updates
- Ok, I finally got the September and October archives added to the guild and class pages.
Some of you might also be wondering why you haven't heard from me about player page
submissions. Well, I managed to wipe out my mail spool recently, and so no longer have
the notes from people asking me to add them. So, if you haven't heard from me, and your
page hasn't shown up, drop me another note, and I'll get right on them.
- 2-September-98 : Updates
- The August archives have been added to the class and guild boards. The Adventurer board
archives have also been added to that page, so they are now browseable.
- 2-September-98 : Arpeggio's Status Page
- Arpeggio has a page that will have information about AA's status if we go down for
whatever reason. I urge you to bookmark his page in case of future outages. I've also
been considering setting up a mailing list for this purpose, although interest in that
has been minimal. If you'd like to see that option, please drop me a note, unless I get
enough interest I won't do it.
- 23-August-98 : Recent Downtime
- As many of you noticed over the past few days we experianced some problems that caused
the machine to be down. The machine tried to reboot for some reason, and ended up in a
condition that required some user intervention. Arpeggio drove to the site and remedied
this problem, and also performed some hardware upgrades we had been planning.
- 2-August-98 : World Theme
- The World Theme has been updated. Thanks to Kosh for refreshing this.
- 2-August-98 : Updates
- Added the July 1998 guild and class board archives to their respective pages.
- 13-July-98 : Updates
- Added the June 1998 guild and class board archives to their respective pages. Also
did some work on updating some of these pages so they don't have the green background.
Some of the pages that they link to still do, and they still need some work, but I'm
hoping to get to that soon. (I've also got several requests for additions to the player
pages, I'm a bit behind on reviewing these to be added.)
- 7-June-98 : Updates
- Added the Player Pages collection.
- 2-June-98 : Updates
- Added the May 1998 guild and class board archives to their respective pages.
- 30-May-98 : Wizard Tools
- We now have a section of the web site with resources for our wizards. Among other
things, it offers searchable wizard boards. I encourage our wizards to check it out. To
get access you'll have to log in with your wizard name and password.
- 27-Mar-98 : New Webmaster
- Ledecius has resigned for the time being as administrator of the web pages.
We'd like to thank him for the work he's done since we first set up web pages for
Ancient Anguish. Piper is taking over administrationg of these pages, if you have
comments or suggestions, you are encouraged to mail him.
- 27-Mar-98 : News Page Added
- This page will be used to inform people of what's new with the web site or the mud.
If the date on the News link on the main page has changed since your last visit, I
encourage you to check here to see what's new.
