YET ANOTHER CHANGE

Alright, after a long discussion with some players and Gods today,
we have come up with yet another new charging plan, and this one is
going to be, I believe, the final one.
The way it will work, in essence, is this: Being on-line in Achaea
will be free, though in the future (perhaps 2 or 3 months from now)
it will cost $10/month for unlimited on-line time. However, you will
gain _no_ lessons from simply being on-line. Lessons will have to be
bought via credits. If you have credits, and you so choose, you will
gain lessons while online or offline (ie sleeplearning) at the normal
rate, and your credits will be used up while doing this. This is the
basic thrust of the system. Other, smaller, changes will be made, such
as possibly making you get more lessons for levelling at higher
levels.
The reason we are going to do this system is simple. It allows people
to be on-line regardless of their financial status, but in order to
progress more quickly, you will have to buy credits. I, and all of
the players I met with, bar one, were in favour of this plan, and so
this is what we are going to do. The plan will go into effect either
on Sunday or Monday (basically whenever I finish writing software to
support this plan).
Those of you that are still in touch with some of the players that
have left may want to get in touch with them and tell them about this
as it they might be very interested to hear about it.
