==Commission==
The EX3 Devs sent out a low-res version of the final map, unfortunately it's a little too low-res to see too many details.
Let's post potential commission artists here.  Let's plan to have an artist picked by roughly the end of the month or within the next two weeks or so - I can handle contacting the guy and everything; once that's done I can interface with everyone to get together everyone's description of their characters.

This is probably my favorite of the ones that I have found. (This is the one I found around Christmas and posted below.) I haven't spent a ton of time looking but this person definitely has an exalted style and we could vary the price quite a bit. Sketches look pretty cheap while other fully colored and background work is a bit more expensive. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 16:47, 23 January 2013 (EST)

Just saw that the beta testing ended last week. Some hope of a December or early 2013 release date! No details I could immediately find though. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 13:39, 18 November 2012 (EST)
 
Nice!  Maybe we could start an online game! (Or maybe that's a pipe dream...)  Also, how terrible is it that I looked for a 'Like' button on that post?

An online game would be solid, but it might be a pipe dream... And yes it is absolutely terrible that you looked for a 'Like' button on that post. (I'll just go on pretending I've never done that before...) --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 22:20, 19 November 2012 (EST)
 
Looks like a playable product has been released. Even if it is a beginners boxed set. A quick look at the forums tells me a true core book is expected in the spring.

We're back.
 
Well done sir. Looking forward to it and hope to find time to post some stuff of my own this week. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 19:05, 25 November 2012 (EST)
 
I was refamiliarizing myself with The Grass Spiders and had the thought that it's too bad we done have a commissioned picture of The Circle with No Name. Would anyone be interested in splitting the cost of a commission? Assuming we can find a good artist for a reasonable price. (Group Christmas Present?) --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 23:06, 26 November 2012 (EST)
 
A thousand times yes.

Gah, I meant to post today, but Bears losses tend to lead to excessive drinking in my social circle... >_<.  So, today was sort of wasted (hah! Double meaning!)  Tomorrow.  Tomorrow.

I posted a really good [[Media:Map of Nexus.jpg|Map of Nexus]], but it's kind of huge. So my bad on that, probably should have resized before uploading... Anyway it's in the Exalted Resources Page. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 18:53, 7 December 2012 (EST)

==Linux v. Windows==
I had to tell someone.  I figured Kirk would appreciate this.  Bluetooth quit working spontaneously on my Windows install, and I had been thinking of installing Linux on my work laptop for awhile (I was sick of X11 tunneling with PuTTY in Windows), so I decided to install it.  I was feeling a little bit rusty on my *nix skills, so to get back in the game, I installed ArchLinux (I thought about installing FreeBSD, but that's a bridge too far), a notoriously bitchy distro that makes you do everything from the ground up. 
Bluetooth worked ''out of the box''. On a distro that prides itself on installing essentially nothing out of the box.  I was slack-jawed.
Linux: 1 <br/>
Windows: 0

EX3

The EX3 Devs sent out a low-res version of the final map, unfortunately it's a little too low-res to see too many details.

Database Backup

I backed up Seventh Legion today. Download it just so we have copies on as many hard drives as possible.

Can you guys believe all the content we've generated over the years? Just hit random page over and over again and marvel. It's awesome.

It really is amazing and I'm pretty glad it's lasted as long as it has and generated so much content. I would say the sitting here and clicking random page has gone from something I enjoy to being a full fledged hobby of mine. Also, this is a little late but did you guys realize that March 25th, 2012 was the 5th anniversary of this site being live?

Some pretty awesome stats to remind you how sweet this site is and how often we use it:

  • 575,000 Total Page Views
    • 115,000 per year
    • 9,500 per month
    • 2,200 per week
    • 375 page views per day!
    • We have 5 pages with over 10,000 views individually!
  • 10,000 Page Edits
    • 2,000 edits per year
    • 165 edits per month
    • 35 edits per week
    • 5 edits per day!
  • Over 500 content pages
    • 100 per year
    • 8 per month

Pretty awesome and continuing to grow as always. Keep up the good work gentlemen. --FyreFly 23:17, 14 April 2012 (EDT)
