We're pleased to announce that after a bit of work from LadyAce,
Lorenzo
and Sandra, the LegendMUD forum is back and in new form.

You don't need to register on the forum. You only need to have an
active
character. Use that character's name and password to log into the
forum.

Check us out at http://forum.legendmud.org!

(Editors Note: Sandra and the rest busted their backsides on this. I
printed the note as it was originally given to me, then I noticed it
was to self-effacing and so I thought I'd sing their praises a bit
more. They really worked hard and deserve many accolades for it.)

- P.S. while you're there don't forget to vote! It's that colorful
button in the middle of the screen.

          ***********************************************
          Mudwide Reimbursals will no longer be available
                         after the 11th.
          ***********************************************

   (Reimbursals will still be done on a limited case-by-case basis.)

                      Housing Reimbursals
                     -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

We'd like to thank everyone for being so patient with us as we
have been doing the character reimbursements. At this time,
it looks as though we have the majority of them done, so we
will be beginning house item reimbursements on Wednesday,
January 4th.

Please be sure to have a list of the housing items, and in the
case of clans, clan bank account amounts ready when you ask
an immort to do the reimbursement. This will make things
go much faster.

Thank you all.

-Sandra

                         REFORMATION?
                        =-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The Syndicate reformed mere weeks ago, and already the bodycount is
rising. Its members have been rumored to be involved in the demise of
individuals from The Underworld, the Lords of Justice, and a
smattering of rogues.  Thus far witnesses have all been reluctant to
comment on record for fear of reprisal.

When asked for comment about allegations of Syndicate involvement
in a murder for hire racket, alleged member Salvatore told us "I am 
just
a common businessman, I run a respectful business. These talks of me
being nothing more than a thug are absurd.".

If you have news or have witnessed events please let us here at the
Legendary Times ([email protected]) know about it. Complete
confidentiality is, of course, guaranteed.

What lies ahead for the citizens of LegendMUD? Has a sinister force
returned to once again wreak havok? Will any rise and stand against it?
Stay tuned for answers brave readers!
