My rough translation of tomorrow's event:
There is something brewing together in Hefei. The bad omens are piling up ...
White men have come to the conclusion that all indications are that on the 13th this month, at Friday, something terrible will happen in Hefei. They estimate, it is especially during the period of 12 to 18 o'clock to stay away from the capital, if you do not want to be hurt!
If you offer yet deciding during this period to be in Hefei, do not say we did not warn you!
Clan Games Campus
This is my first message here so bare with me. Just posting this because AxtTreiber aka SpearDriver is on vacation.
At the current moment there is nothing special going on, on Games Campus. Only thing going on at the moment is the Item Mall Auction. Its the same as the previous one, this week you can pm "Versteigerer" with your bid for certain items. The original message can be found here: Click Here

P.S. I hope you have a nice vacation SD.
Patch 23 was rolled out today, but it's nothing to celebrate. We were told in advance that the Tibet map would be added to the game today and we got it. So, maybe 3 people can start grinding there. The lowest level mobs are level 176 and from my playing days on Bardo I know that those mobs hit hard.
For those people who can get to the third village on the ice map it's an easy jump to Tibet, and it's safe from the gate to the first village. You'll get 100% value for all the items you sell to the NPC too, so it's worth to save up a couple of bags full and at the end of the grinding day, jump to that map and sell your drops.
I was expecting to find the 800 defense clothes at the drapery, and they were there for about an hour. I bought several sets and passed them on at my cost to league members. It doesn't pay to be a nice guy though because Camlost decided that these are "a bit too powerful".
Seriously? What?
Some nuker might get his feelings hurt when he can't one shot kill everybody in Bloody Plains?
Fuck You Camlost. This is just one more bad decision. Pathetic drop rates, trying to sell skill experience items in the coin mall, hackers still in the game, all those lucky refiners from a small SE Asian nation, and no plan to deal with shared accounts.
What's next? Chi Kung defense items in the coin mall?
In other news I bought one of the NPC weapons from Tibet, because I really badly need a new axe. I'm using a borrowed FC level axe and I'm almost Little Master levels. Ridiculous, right? The story gets better. I cut that axe 12 levels, down to LM6, added one slot to it with a bronze separator and the refining bitch broke it at +3.
There really is nothing here to celebrate. Move along.

ShadowGuyver pretty much gave up the game last night. We did a run in Gold Coins Mansion for him, to get that killer epithet. It was fun. It's just sad to see another experienced adult player leave the game. Let's face it, they're hard to replace. That guy in particular will be really hard to replace. He's been playing for years and was even a volunteer game manager back in the Acclaim days. There aren't too many around who know more about the game than I do, but he would be one of them.
He's got good reasons though and we all have to respect them. He's graduating university in a few weeks and is already searching for a job. He's got a girlfriend too now, one of the original sort of time sink. He hasn't been too happy about the state of the game either, and in his own words, "Games Campus hasn't done much to improve the game".
He's right of course. This league is called Disconnected for a reason, and we all still get dc'ed far too often. The game crashes at the map changes are pretty annoying too. There is still no such thing as PvP balance even with the artificial attack rating cap on the nukers. All it takes is one high level nuker to show up and no one else will ever have a chance to take one of the fortresses. In Black vs White war Batuo can single-handedly defend the white side Hermit.
PvP balance may not be something that Games Campus can ever fix but there are plenty of other issues they could deal with, and obviously they don't have the same concerns that we players have. Refining hacks get a three day ban, quest repeats are still happening, damage is hacked on the bosses, level hacking is back, and shared accounts are more common than ever. The lack of responses from Games Campus mean it's just not worth to report them anymore.
And in the mean time, another one bites the dust.
See ya Shadow, it was a lot of fun having you around! Come and see us once in a while.
- AxtTreiber
I don't have much that is important to report, but I thought I would share a few things from the news this weekend. First of all the experience event is going reasonably well and a fair number of people are actually playing. I have a new member in my band, and 2 people are waiting for invites to the Sacred Flowers band. We may have to reform that band because the bandmaster hasn't been seen for ages. ShadowGuyver, I would appreciate it if you could check in with us once in a while so that we can reform the league and dump that mostly inactive SF band.
Xenawarior? Are you up to being bandmaster again?
Laskarina from the UnitedForces league made it to Hermit 1 this weekend. There should be a special entry on the wikipedia page for no-life losers, just for Laskarina. Man, I thought I was bad. I might make it to HM12 tonight. It's looking like next weekend will be a 3x event. It will be interesting to see who gets what sort of levels.
Games Campus will bring us the Tibet map and School of the Rising Sun dungeon next week. There are a total of maybe 3 people who could grind in SRS now, so that's not really important. I've been instructed to not post in English on their forum anymore, except in the International Corner. I'm really not in the mood for that sort of game publisher stupidity. Yes I can speak and read in German but I touch type in English. I have to physically look at each key to type in German while I think about how about how to spell things, and I can't spell worth spit in German.
I suspect I won't be posting much more on the Games Campus forum. It's their loss, not mine.
Speaking of game publisher stupidity, I posted a suggestion that Games Campus should change the package size of the experience cards. The current price for a package of 50 cards is 3300 Campus Credits, or about 66 cents each. The only problem with that? The easiest way to buy Campus Credits is with a Paysafe card, and those come in 25 euro amounts. For 25 euros you get 2750 credits. If Games Campus packaged 40 xp cards for 2750 credits the unit price would be 68 cents each.
This doesn't look difficult to me but I doubt they'll do anything with that suggestion.
Traditionally, the publishers of 9Dragons don't pay much attention to player suggestions and in this regard Games Campus isn't much different. What we have here is a game being played by a bunch of people with no life, and being run by a bunch of people with no brains.
Good combination! How did you do in the weekend event?
- AxtTreiber
We already know that the Korean server has a fairly cool Easter event planned for their servers. One of the regulars on the Games Campus forum posted a link for us. I can't read a word of it though, and I sure wish there was a google translator for text in images, so we could find out more details.
I'm bringing this up because Camlost posted a poll today in the forums, and we have some choice as to the server settings for the Easter weekend. Use that link and go vote. You don't need to be able to speak German to understand the choices for the server settings.
In addition to the poll though, the German language text Camlost posted suggests that we are probably getting some sort of an event for Easter.
"Ostern kommt schneller als man denkt! Wir sind schon am Vorbereiten eines netten Ostereis für euch...
Easter is coming faster than we can think. We are already preparing a nice Easter Egg for you..."
The rest of his text just introduces the poll and the choices we have. We have until Wednesday of next week to vote, but there is no reason not to do that today. In the mean time, if anyone can read that Korean text, it would be nice to know what it says.
- AxtTreiber
Maybe they are finally starting to feel sorry for us, or maybe this is just the usual once per month experience event that Games Campus has been giving us so far. Either way I'm happy to see it. At the Half Maniac 2 level I get about 8% per hour of grind. Without events and xp cards I can't even level up every day, and that is pretty frustrating. I'm not planning to spend any more money on this version so I'm saving the xp cards I have, for an event.
Finally we have one.
This weekend, starting Friday at 6pm local time until Monday morning at 10am we'll have 2x the normal experience rates. Yes, it's another marathon. I don't think I can get to the Lost Mind levels but I will probably be fairly close.
Good luck and have fun this weekend. It's Time To Grind!

Many of the players on 9DGermany are doing their best to convince Games Campus to put on more events, but the message isn't getting through. For better or for worse 9D players got used to regular weekly experience events and many people simply wont play without them. I have players in my band stuck at RC/RL levels and they haven't been seen in weeks. They want regular events and didn't get them on this server. They voted with their feet, and left.
I mention this because this weekend Games Campus has come up with an event!
It's a nice idea but really, only about 15 people will be able to play this one. It's a collection event. Sort of. You have to collect 20 pieces of steel as your entry fee to join a special True General Wei spawn event on Monday night. Games Campus will spawn TGW 3 times and people who already have that epithet are not invited to the party.
I have a small chance to get this epithet. I am one of about 15 people on the server who are Half Maniac, or Humble Master level. In the 5 years or so that I've played this game I've never had this epithet. Obviously I'm going to try for it and I'm collecting all the damage equipment I can find. My competition includes a bunch of incredibly lucky weapon refiners and +9 is the new +10.
Hey ShadowGuyver, can I borrow your axe?
So far there aren't lot more details for this event. Apparently we'll be teleported to where ever the spawn spot will be. That probably means CC5. I hope not. We probably wont have time to get the anti-PK buff and I'm on a PvE build. The first nuker who decides to clear the room will end the event for me. I'll have some herbs with me, against the poisoned air, but I really don't have anything to save me from a nuker.
I'm just going to have to hope for the best. Any suggestions?
Update: Like I said, I had a small chance to win one of these but it didn't happen. Thanks though in particular to Lilith for the loan of an nice axe and healer support during the three spawn.
Just for the record I had damage relics and decos from the Master & Disciple system that totaled an 80% increase in damage and some attack rate. I had 1k damage pills and 20% crit rate pills too. For clothing and epithets I used critical rate damage clothes that with my masteries and premium added 21% to all critical hits. I know I was getting True General Wei's attention. He was hitting me back regularly.
It's annoying to use these good items for nothing, but without them you can't possibly win, and what hell, it's at least worth it to try.
- AxtTreiber
This is what you get for giving three day bans to hackers...
Yes, he's running around with another plus 10 bracers. That is what you get for a 3 day ban.
You get a player who comes back and hacks himself another weapon. I took that shot around midnight last night and I would normally send it to GamesCampus, but Camlost clearly no longer cares.
So, what are we playing next?
- AxtTreiber
The next patch has been announced but it doesn't look like too much of a big deal. This is mostly a patch for bug fixes. It won't be possible to enter CC5 for instance, if your black or white side didn't win then war on Bloody Plains. I wonder if players with an old CC5 entry buff will still be able to enter, if their side wins. A lot of people get an early start on True General Wei this way.
The empty gift box is going, finally, and some of the mini-maps will be updated. A few of them have locations incorrectly labeled in German. Too bad those can't be switched back to the English versions too. On that topic, some of the English language content in the Master & Disciple system will be replaced with German as well.
Really though, Games Campus should just admit defeat and set the language to Vietnamese. At least that would keep the largest number of players happy.
The post announcing the patch notes also says there will be a few other small bugs fixed, but don't give any details of what those will be. This whole thing will be patched up on Wednesday morning between 8 am and 10:30 am.
As always, if you find something new, or a new problem/bug please post in the comments.

This game is really losing steam and players are leaving again. We're pretty much back to the situation we had with GamersFirst before they brought out the template characters, and what a fiasco that was. At that time our reader numbers here were just barely reaching 800 unique readers per month. For the month of March we had only 860 unique readers. That's down from 1200 in January.
In our league we're down to about 10 really active players. That's actually normal for most of the leagues on the Games Campus German server. I've spoken to a few other high level players and they all have have the same situation we have. They have high level characters in their leagues, and a few characters designed to hunt bosses, and that's it. The lack of regular weekly events has pretty much destroyed the crowd of casual players and Games Campus doesn't seem to be willing to do anything about that.
The situation isn't just here on 9D Germany. Our friends in the Restless League on the GamersFirst server have pretty much had enough too. They'll be meeting this week to see what they want to do next. Most of their long term members have left 9Dragons already. Some have gone on to play Guild Wars. Guild Wars 2 should be out soon, and that might be a good option for me.
The other factor of course is the presence of the Vietnamese hackers and again, Games Campus doesn't seem to be willing to do anything about those people either. A number of them have had hacked weapons taken away, but apparently hacking those weapons in the first place isn't good enough reason to ban players from the game. Those guys are now using +9 weapons, instead of +10. It's their new standard equipment, and I'm sure those were hacked too. There is about a 3% cumulative chance to refine a weapon to +9.
I had a 2 slot weapon fail at +4 last week. I'm not putting up with this anymore.
I'm looking around again for a new game to play. I have a 90 day premium package in the bag, and I'll start using that today. I have a few credits left over that I will probably spend on XP cards. After all, I might as well use those credits up before moving on.
Star Wars Old Republic is coming soon. They are accepting applications for beta testers and are allowing leagues to pre-register league names already, so it shouldn't be too long. I have signed up for the beta tester program. Age of Wulin is more active with their Twitter page too, but I'm not expecting a beta test for that game any time soon.
I'll still be around and playing this game as I've done for a long time, until I can find something else I want to play. Like I said, I'm not putting up with this anymore.

There is a bit of a loud-mouthed prick who has been tossed from German servers, with the IGN of Skyline. He and his sock puppets have been throwing shit around on the Games Campus forum and I must admit I was doing my best to keep him agitated. It wasn't difficult.
Now that many of his accounts and sock puppets have been closed, and probably his new playing characters too, I suspect he may try to move his stupidity over here. I'm not in the mood to be deleting posts from anybody. Most of you know that I almost never do that. It's easier to set the comments to moderated and I'll check the blog more often over the next few days to see if any comments need approval.
In other news Lilith and I had 3 successful full runs of the Golden Coins Mansion, and we both got our killer epithets. Lilith will need a few more levels to do a proper job of finishing for epithet runs, but I figure ShadowGuyver could do that job now. I would like to figure out where ShadowGuyver is too. He is Missing in Action.
We'll be doing epithet runs for league members once we get a couple more people just a little higher, or Shadow shows up. So get your passes together people. You'll need 3 purple passes, or 30 Letters of Yakumo, and don't forget to pay your tanker. I personally want clothes from the CS6 male damage set. The GCM boss drops those.
I have a few manuals to give away to our active league members, and a few elixirs too. Stay tuned to league chat for our next runs and anyone CS++ who can heal themselves could probably get some loot on their own.
Update: xenawarior went away happy tonight. She got the conqueror epithet for the Golden Coins Mansion, which may not look too cool up front, but if you're using a high dex build you'll get a 7% dodge bonus for using that epithet.
Golden Coins Clan's Sealed Gate(GCM conqueror)
Reflect 4% of physical damage to target
Reflect 4% of Chi Kung damage to target
Dodge increased by 7%
Chi Kung dodge increased by 7%
She probably also has a bag full of elixirs and manuals to use, or sell.

Games Campus in connection with buffed.de are offering a free 7 day premium package to the first 200 people who register with buffed.de. Obviously you're probably going to get a fair bit of spam from buffed.de but who cares, or you can just use a throw away email account. Unfortunately it's all in German but it's not that hard to go through the process.
The word Registrieren is not hard to understand. You'll then need to select an account name, and a user name, and a password which you type twice. You'll also have to type your email address twice. buffed.de will send you an email to confirm your address and you have to use the link in that email to confirm.
The, you go to this article and scroll down. Click on the words, "Jetzt Item-Code zu 9 Dragons gewinnen" and you'll get a popup with a button that says "Premium-Key Anfordern". Click that and you'll get taken to a page with a long string of numbers.
Copy that long string of numbers in the coupon page at the Games Campus website. You have to be logged into the Games Campus website when copy that string of numbers, but when you do a 7 day premium package will be delivered to your coin mall inventory.
Go quick people, there are only 200 packages available.

I haven't seen any patch notes yet, but I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary either. It might be that the only thing new with these patches is the opening of the North Seas Icy Palace map. One thing that I know wasn't fixed is that really annoying and empty gift box. I had a little trouble with one of the CS level quests too. I kept getting a little text box that said I had the perfect reindeer horn, but it wasn't in my bag. Eventually I got it.
Otherwise everything seems to be what I expected and remember from the ice map. The experience rate is just as painful as ever and I really pity the fools who don't have xp cards. I'm sure glad I can afford them. The mobs hit just as hard as ever and a dodge deco is an absolute must for survival. Even with a dodge deco the mobs hand out external wounds like candy canes at Christmas. Anyone with a PvP build is going to be hating this map.
There is a quest series that gives you a number of damage globs. You get the choice of normal damage or Chi Kung damage. I have no doubt that some enterprising Viet will find a way to repeat that quest. Look for them to be on sale in Hefei within an hour.
The drop rate still sucks donkey balls. In a few hours of grind I didn't get a single slotted weapon, and I really would like a better axe. I keep hoping that Games Campus will reconsider this, along with regular experience events but as they say, "hope dies last".
Did you find anything unexpected? Please let us know in the comments.

Like the sign says, the ice map is coming. The post just went up in the forum.
On Thursday morning at the usual times there will be 2 patches rolled out, one to bring us the ice map and the second to synchronize things for the French language server. I have to say though, I sure wish they would concentrate on one server and give the players the language options like we had at Acclaim. That would really help the server population.
Anyway, we've got some good news and I'm sure a few people will be going into no-lifer mode next weekend. The grind spots at the GL1 levels are going to be a little crowded for the first few days. Hopefully we'll have an event, and I'll be pulling out my xp cards.
As usual if you find anything bugged or new on the next patches please let us know in the comments section.

I'm a bit of a slave to my disciples these day, which is actually okay. I have three pretty good ones at the moment and I should be a level 2 master very soon. When they aren't online I can grind my nuker, or shoot devas until my fingers bleed. It's a right of passage for all nukers. You just have to go through it.
When my disciples are online though, I don't have much to do. ShadowGuyver rather cheekily pointed out that at Golden Lotus 1 I'm not actually leveled capped, but I have no real desire to grind on blue mobs or waste passes in the Golden Coins Mansion.
To keep from being totally bored I sometimes go walking the maps picking up gold coins. I got over 60 of them this morning, and that's 3 blood essences. That's more BE than I've gotten from any boss lately. After they turn blue they really stop dropping very much.
The other thing I couldn't help notice this morning is that there were more bored bosses on the maps then there were players. Macro users don't count of course. On Shi Zhang there were exactly 2 players actually out grinding and there were 3 bosses standing around with nothing to do. What's the point of being a boss if you don't have any players to terrorize?
The Datong map was a little better. There were a few more players around and a few more macro users too, but most of the bosses were wandering around too. Even Shen Mo was spawned at the desert location and nobody was on him. We fixed that quickly of course, and now my nuker has that epithet too.
I'll walk the Hangzhou and Liaodong maps today but I'm not expecting anything better. I'm really starting to worry about this server. You know there is a problem with the server population when the bosses are standing around bored.
Patch 19 was announced today, and there is more good news to come too. The patch will be rolled out tomorrow morning at about noon, and the server is scheduled to be back up by 1:30pm. Here is the English language post about the patch, complete with a correction from a friendly player. No, it wasn't me.
This is not a major patch. Indy21 and Games Campus are simply fixing a couple of errors that have crept into the game over the last few patches. It's a nice approach to game management, something we players have been asking for, literally for years.
The lightfoot bug on the new 2nd skill bar will be fixed, and that didn't take long. The ;escape or ;flucht mechanism should be fixed too. There are a bunch of places where you can sort of "drop off the map", and they've always been there. You just go to peace mode and type ;escape and a couple minutes later you get moved to a safe spot. In German you should be able to type ";flucht" in peace mode and do the same. That hasn't been working lately.
Also, all of the collection stuff related to Valentines and Chinese New Year will be removed. If you have any flowers left over you should turn them in quick. And last, the resource map tabs listings of items from each map merchant should be back in place too.
Like I said, just a few small errors that have crept into the game, and now they're getting fixed.
We would still like to see the North Seas Icy Plains map sooner rather than later. Every day a few more people hit the level cap and the grind spots could be pretty crowded if we don't get that new map soon.
In other good news the skill experience rate will be permanently doubled from its current very poor rate. That doesn't help me much. I just put up with it and got the job done on most skills, but hopefully this will encourage a few players who gave up to come back and try again. For our active league members there will manuals available shortly after we get the Ice map. It wont take long before CS level members can join me for full runs in the Golden Coins Mansion.
We did a full run of the Wild Tower today, with just two of us, so we're getting there as a league. It would sure be nice to see a few more people playing regularly though.
- AxtTreiber
The game took a night off last night, and of course Games Campus doesn't provide around the clock support, so a few of us went and had a forum event instead. We were mostly just goofing off, but it all remained pretty civilized. Pretty much just on time, like when Camlost got to work this morning, the game was up and running again.
As a compensation event we are getting 2x the usual experience rates until Wednesday at noon. It would be nicer to have this sort of thing on the weekends when more people could take advantage of it, but 48 hours of compensation time, for less than 12 hours of down time is still pretty generous. Drop rates and skill rates are not affected by this.
I personally have some down time today too, and wont be playing. Maybe not even tomorrow too. We'll see. I think many of you know that my wife is a doctor and one of the down sides to that is, sometimes she comes home with a bug from a patient. She was sick 3 days last week, and today it's my turn. Norovirus is not fun at all.
Another guy taking some unwanted down time is our former league member St33L. His account has been hacked and the characters deleted. Obviously he's not very happy about this. I've talked about hackers here a few times but lately it really hasn't been a problem. I think everyone has gotten used to the idea that you have to keep your account name and password a secret. Sharing your account with someone, so that you can level up faster is just begging to lose everything you had on that account.
Camlost did answer him in public and they appear to be willing to help him rebuild that character. At least to a certain extent. I really doubt Games Campus will be willing to do that regularly, so don't count on it.
Have fun with the event, and maybe I'll see you tomorrow.

There are a few small things in game that are worth a comment or two, so here goes. We got a patch this morning but to be honest I can't see what it did. Even Games Campus are calling it a mini-patch. Even the minor bug on the living/resources map tabs wasn't fixed. If anyone finds something new please leave a note in the comments.
I think most people know that the Viet players make a habit of trying to sell in-game items for real world money. I don't know what Games Campus policy is about this sort of thing, but they do it anyway. DuLong has a regular price of 3000 campus credits for a defense trink, for example. You know what? I think they've run out of customers! There are only so many people who will do that sort of thing, pay real money for game items, and we have a low population on this server to begin with.
I mention this because in the last couple of days, 3 or 4 people have told me that they ran into that boss and no one else was there. The usual small army of Viet campers/buffers weren't around. I doubt they've all been banned from the game, so they're probably spending their time hacking away at something else.
Which brings me to my next topic. It's pretty clear to anyone who has played in any part of the PvP areas that damage hacks are the next big thing for a number of players. At the storm versus storm event last Sunday night someone hit me for over 8k hit points, in one shot. I even had an HP pill running, from the Master & Disciple NPC, and that was overwhelmed too, in that single shot. We all know that's not possible. With my dodge and ck dodge numbers, and level, most people wouldn't be able to hit me at all. It had to have been a high level nuker, and there are only a few of them.
I filed a complaint about it with Camlost and he actually got back to me pretty quickly. He said that that sort of thing is hard to prove, and I knew that. At least he's aware of the problem and watching out for it. It will probably require video evidence to get these assholes tossed out of the game. A lot of players came to this server, started over from Zero (again), just to get away from the hackers on the GamersFirst servers. It would be a real shame to see this server go down in hacker flames, because this place really is the last chance for 9Dragons.

Evidently Games Campus has decided there is quite a lot of gold floating around the game, and they've decided to do something about it. They've decided to auction off a number of fairly sweet items through their forums, and you get to bid with game gold. The post is unfortunately only in German so far so I'll do my best to keep you updated here.
You place your bid using the PM function on the forum, in that thread. The character running the auction is a new forum name, Versteigerer, which is appropriate. That name means Auctioneer in English.
The first items for auction is a pair of 7/1k hit point return weapon ornaments, and the auction is open until Friday, but no time on Friday is given.
From Friday until Monday you'll have the chance to bid on a 30 day premium package, and next week from Monday to Thursday 4 Jade Separators are going to be auctioned off. Here is a quote from the forum with actual dates;
Dienstag (01.03.2011) bis Freitag (04.03.2011)
je 2x [Neu] Emblem von Quilin - Waffenornament, 0,7% deines Schadens heilen dich
Freitag (04.03.2011) bis Montag (07.03.2011)
je 1x 30 Tage Premium-Paket
Montag (07.03.2011) bis Donnerstag (10.03.2011)
je 4x Jadeöse - Fügt einen weiteren Slotplatz zu bestehenden hinzu
Weitere Angebote folgen bei Interesse!
Like I said, some sweet items and an interesting idea. They will continue with the idea if there is enough interest. I think that if Games Campus continues with the great coin mall items there will be plenty of interest, particularly for the players who can't afford to buy those items.
They have a format they would like players to use too;
----------------------------------------
Betreff:
Stille Auktion für ITEMNAME
Text
Account: ACCOUNTNAME
Gebot: GEBOT IN GOLD
----------------------------------------
Put the item name as the subject of the PM, and in the text of the message your account name and offer in game gold. If you're the winner they'll drop the items on your account and manually remove the gold.
Good Luck to all bidders.
Update: All auctions start and end at noon, in the German timezone.
