04-15-09 There's a new facility out in the desert for anyone who's completed the level 9 quest.

04-12-09 The level 9/cube quest has been reset. More on the forums.

04-11-09 The cube isn't quite ready yet, but just wanted to warn the veterans not to be alarmed that all references to it may be missing until I have the new quest ready. Working on it.

04-05-09 Those Boston Stranglers have taken over the stadium again. Put 'em back in jail today or the police are sure to get to them tomorrow, after a long standoff.

03-31-09 Due to a rather generous contribution on the part of a certain investor in zillion-chip pieces, this year's celebration of the beginning of the fourth month has been canceled. Sorry. No item of the month this month, either. They're so cliche, I figured we should try it without one for once.

03-29-09 Anybody who hasn't finished yet has one more day to wrap up the mine quest, and then it's gone.

03-25-09 Half of the gemstone recipes ought to be working now.

03-21-09 The third and final stage of the mine saga is ready.

03-15-09 The next stage of the Sunset Strip Mine saga is ready--just adventure at the mine and the story will unfold.

03-12-09 Whoah! An earthquake just hit the city right as you were leaving work! What's going on?

03-11-09 A series of light tremors have been plaguing Twilight for the past couple of days, but nobody seems to know what's been going on. There's nothing you can do about it, but it's making everyone edgy.

03-06-09 Twilight Heroes has jumped on the bandwagon and gotten a Twitter account.

03-02-09 Added a counter to the home page that shows the number of players logged in.

03-02-09 In a very untimely fashion I've corrected a long-overdue oversight. The game now tracks the total number of (in-game) minutes spent playing. Visible on any public character sheet.

02-28-09 Also added this month's spading bounty to the forums. It's a challenging one, with a hefty prize for the winner..

02-28-09 March's item of the month is available in the Wok of Stars.

01-31-09 February's fabulous items of the month are in the Wok of Stars in Somerset Square.

01-22-09 The messaging pages now include an expansion pack for secure in-game trading. I'm extremely proud of the community community that there has never been a genuine attempt at cheating with the insecure trade since the game's creation, but hopefully this will let some hesitant players join in the fun.

01-20-09 As an aftershock from yesterday's transportation change, a number of stores have been relocated. Details on the forums.

01-19-09 Vehicle ranges have been rearranged (no pun intended) a bit. Also, the used car lot has been moved from downtown to the seedy casinos. There's a few new recipes to go with these changes, too.

01-19-09 Assemble multiple? Sure, sure. Weld multiple, too? Fine, fine.

01-14-09 You can change the capitalization (but not spelling) of your name in account settings now. Have at it, MAgiNinjA!

01-12-09 The chat invisibility effect should be working again. Sorry that took so long to fix, and there still may be interference if you try to use multiple invisibility methods at once.

01-11-09 To prevent any confusion, sugar and caffeine items now say which type of consumable they are in the item description.

01-09-09 Apparently I'm bribing people to research overlooked game content. Details on the forums.
