    TGIF! Here’s your development news round-up for the past week!

    Player Bans September 27 - October 3

    As a reminder, the following numbers are permanently frozen accounts, and don't count temporary freezes.

    FB: 14

    The majority of permanently frozen accounts are frozen for being a shared or alternate account. This is something we actively investigate, and we appreciate players reporting suspicious accounts to us.

    If you have any questions or comments about a frozen account, please direct them through Support as the Forums are not the place to discuss account freezes, because of the sensitive account information involved.

    New Limited Items!

    A new week means new Limited Items! Here’s what’s up for grabs:

    New Feature: Power Heal!

    After a quick trial run in Mob Wars: La Cosa Nostra, the Power Heal has made its way to Viking Clan. For more information on this feature, read this post here.

    Support Report with your favorite burrowing nocturnal mammal and Answerpreneur, Aardvark!

    Happy Friday players, and a happy Thanksgiving to our fellow Canadians!

    Heads up: our office will be closed on Monday, Oct 13th for the holiday so please be aware that responses to any Friday afternoon or weekend messages may take some extra time.

    And a quick reminder! We love it when players send us relevant links or URLs when they contact us! If you have question or concerns about something in your game and are able to send us a direct link to the page it's on, that can really help illustrate what the issue is.

    However, try to check any URLs you send us to make sure they work and go to the right places. I can't even count the number of times a player has reported their own account to us for violations because they accidentally pasted their own link into the message! :)

    Cheers,

    Aardvark

    an even bigger mistake was releasing it along with the new set of limited quantity that had a balanced warrior with lower numbers but the same cost...kind of a waste and pointless...why buy a warrior with lower numbers for the same price?

    OK I must be getting slow in my old age. Can somebody point out what you're referring to?

    Nope never mind, finally figured it out. :/

    Don't feel too bad, @Kel the Merciful King it took me a good ten minutes of furiously re-reading this TGIF before I finally found what you were referring to.

    Hm. It's true that the "This Way That Way" warrior does not have origins in ancient norse mythology -we picked it because it seemed like a fun idea.

    It's been something of a trend for us to make content based on how fun it sounds. I suspect that if we were to compile a list of elements in our games that are historically inaccurate, the This Way That Way wouldn't even rank in the top 100.

    However I can certainly appreciate it if players have an interest in seeing more content drawn directly from old norse culture and myth. We'll keep that in mind when designing future releases :)

    Speaking of New Releases......Has the Kano people taken a look at how many MORE Higher Levels there are now??? With this last round of Raid Bosses there are a lot more of us now! We NEED a New Land & all that goes with it!!! And I consider New Blacksmith Recipes part of a New Land! Kano is WAY behind the Player's Levels! :(

    Come on guys, PLEASE give us a New Land!♥
