We are currently investigating an issue that is causing some players difficulty with logging into the shards. We do not have an ETA as of yet, but we are aware of it and we're working to get it resolved as quickly as we can. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

You may of noticed that the Halloween Event is still going on and it's not quite Halloween anymore. We wanted to let you know that we have corrected an issue that would allow it to restart. We've got a fix going in with the Friday morning maintenance that will fix this. 

For those of you who are experiencing latency issues we wanted to let you know that we've identified an issue with an individual telecom company whose network is affecting performance of players whose service is routed through their network at any point, particularly on the East Coast.  We're sorry for the inconvenience everyone and thank you for your patience as our team continues to work with this provider to resolve the issue. 

Ready for the Five on Friday this week? We've got questions concerning OSI houses and holiday gifts coming your way!

Hi everyone,

We’ve had some great submissions for the Event Moderator Program so far, and we’ve seen a slew of applications.

I would like to make a request. Please remember that we are reviewing everyone’s applications extensively, but also remember that we’re trying to do a very thorough job. Please understand that we have been putting this together for over four months. We ask you wait a few more days as we go through the almost 100 applications we have received so far. Afterwards, we will post the names and send out all of the documentation necessary to complete the process as independent contractors support UO:Live.

There will be no special consideration given for former EMs.  Previous procedures, policies, and contractual obligations are void for this iteration of the Event Moderator program.

Thanks for understanding,

Calvin Crowner
Dev Manager, Ultima Online
