Elven Casino / Lottery

Whilst in Penteza I noticed that a change was made to the lottery, although it was never mentioned in the updates.

It now tells you how many tickets need to be purchased before the winner is chosen. I hope this means more players will participate in future :)

There have been other unmentioned changes too, such as when removing items from your shop, syrnia automatically fills in the number in the box with the amount of that item you have. Little changes like are useful, im looking forward to finding more!

Battle arena schedule

Number1 has a thread in the syrnia forums detailing all upcoming Battle arena schedules and levels.

Instead of repeating information here, I will place a link to his thread under the link section here.

Happy 3rd Birthday Syrnia!!

Thats right, Syrnia is 3 years old today! To celebrate the occasion, party island will be open for the next 24 hours.

The fifth of March is Syrnias birthday, it all started 3 years ago when the first players arrived. Exactly those 1096 days ago, Syrnia looked a lot different. Much has been improved to make the game stand where it is today. Step by step Syrnia is expanding and growing daily, and due to that its important to remember and celebrate the day it all started.

All of the players are invited to celebrate this glorious day with us, many events are scheduled throughout the day, starting from 00:00 till 23:59. Below is a list of activities scheduled:

• The battle arena has fights scheduled all day. Each fight is limited to certain combat levels. Everyone can participate 3 times today. Remember: If you die in the Desert arena you will not lose any items, so it's safe to try.
• Craft unique blue balloons at Festival forest ! Yes blue; no red balloons this year ;).
• If you're lucky you can get one of the few Birthday cakes from the chests that appear during the day.
• You can fish (the red striped fish) at Holiday lake
• There is a trading post at Syrnia celebration center
• You can woodcut at Festival forest, the forest has very high seed rates.
• You can collect a free gift at Syrnia celebration center (You can choose a Kanzo teleport orb).
• Rumors go about invasions..you never know when the monsters attack!

You can reach party island via Port Senyn, Crab nest, or Eylsian docks.

We, once again, want to thank all players that have played, continue to play and welcome all newcomers. Syrnia could not have been where it's today without YOU! We hope you will enjoy yourself today, and calibrate Syrnia 3rd birthday with us. Thank you on behalf of the Syrnia staff.

Battlemage arena schedule update

A new event has been added to the schedule for level 10 to 19 players.

Possible new chat feature

After much talk in the forums regarding the quality of world chat and moderation, it appears that there may be a future update which will give players the option to ignore other players.

Obviously this will only be implemented if its feasible to do. Trial and error with the coding as well as the impact/load it will have on the server will be considered before it is decided if it will be added to Syrnia.

Currently there is no timescale for this update, but knowing it is being worked on may please some ;-)

As for the affect this will have on moderating, we will have to wait and see.

Pirate invasion in early hours of this morning

This morning there was a pirate invasion at locations on Mezno island.

It appears the Roughnecks at Xanso claimed a few lives before they were defeated.

All locations are clear now and thus the invasion is over.
