As promised in the bard help file, characters that are currently rogues or scouts will have the opportunity to switch to the new class. If you want to do so, email me at
dulrik@hotmail.com stating your desire to switch to the class when it becomes available. Be sure to make it very clear what your character's name is within this message. Be sure to email me from the same email address under which you registered your character.
You must send me this message before Wednesday, January 15th. You must make the decision before knowing what bards will be like. Once I receive the message, you won't be allowed to back out. And most importantly: when your character is switched, YOU WILL BE RESET TO AMATEUR. It will be just like starting a new character, but you will retain your current age and group affiliations. If you really have a hardcore desire to play a bard with your current character, then this is your option. I don't expect many responses.
