Special Scheduling, posted on Sun Mar 30 12:54:22 2014
Posted by: Pit
Category: Guilds
As part of an ongoing project to work the snags out of the combat code, the way "specials" are scheduled has seen some changes.

Suffice it to say that he has become tired of all the extra unnecessary work, and has made Arrangements to ensure that his time is adequately compensated.
