Official: Summit Academy in December

[Fallen]

That's right! Summit Academy will be our December event. Dates are still being finalized, but we will have more information for you very soon.
In addition to the services available at the past event (spell preps, swears, signature verbs, log phrases, feature pavilion [for body, distinguishing mark, and wing quirks], enhancive permanence), we've now added spell customizations to the available services. This pertains to things like Manna, Well of Life, Tangleweed, etc. Most, if not all, of the offerings from the last run are available this time around, and many have more options available.

We will post more information as it becomes available.

Cubes will never be returning in that form ever again.

Yuck

[Alastir]

I'm glad to see they realized the problem cubes created. It dumped way too many silvers into the game.

[AnOrdim]

While I enjoy the ability to customize character(s), stuff like this should just be available all the time. The customizations can't be traded so there is no secondary market. I'd be more disappointed coming in as a new player and knowing that I missed a chance to customize my character than anything else.

[Taernath]

What were cubes and what was the issue?

[beldannon5]

what was said up there too many silvers dumped into the game. you opened the cubes possibly got something neat, or just silvers and gems

[Alastir]

What were cubes and what was the issue?

It was basically simucoins for silvers, and it was incredibly cheap. I don't remember if it was $1 per mil or $4 per mil, but it dumped hundreds of millions, if not a billion coins into the game.

[Goat]

I didn't get involved, but I think it was closer to $4/m than $1/m. I think it wasn't exceptionally high throughput per character though - anyone know?

And yes, I'm very glad to see that's not happening again.

Glad to see S.A. making an appearance again, and I agree with Ordim that some form of it should be always available (a slimmed down version, with maybe two or three options in each category available).... also glad to see cubes aren't coming back.
