The new server is currently ready for testing. You can give it a try here:
new.shatteredkingdoms.org 1996
There is no connection between the new server and the current server. New has a copy of all the data and the characters that are currently copied onto it are actually several weeks old. All of the data that is currently on the new server will be deleted and replaced with the data from the current mud server once we are permanently ready to switch over.
Anything goes on the new server while it is in test mode. If you want to multiplay, that's fine. I actually encourage it, because I want to test with a large number of players.
But please do not let number of players in the real game drop while we are testing. Screw around, multiplay, PK each other, run tests, whatever - but please try to keep playing the real game with your normal character at the same time.
And please send feedback to dulrik (at) yahoo about any problems, including any problems when connecting, if you still perceive lag or not, and if you notice anything odd. Thanks.
