Assassins who are absent from the Discworld for a period of 90 roundworld days will now be removed from any postgraduate courses that they were enrolled in.

Any affected players can claim back a certain amount of their course fees from the secretary in the guild.

The secretary will now also warn players about this when they enrol.

This was implemented in order to stop absentee players from adversely affecting the ability of active players to complete their lecture programmes!

You are now able to burn coal in your fireplaces.

The craftsmen in the marbleworks on Contradiction Close in Ephebe have cleared out some of their old unsold stonework and started making and selling a number of fireplaces.

There are now unique light/extinguish commands for both witches and wizards wanting a more stylish way of interacting with their lamps.

Lamps holding lots of candles are also a lot less likely to make a room too bright to see when they're all lit. This may not be the case if you have several chandeliers of eight candles and light them all at once, though...
