This Christmas, we're bringing back the Christmas mode on our snow maps along with 1.5 the normal xp and gold rates.  The servers and boosts will remain in place through January 2nd, 2020.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Hello everyone,

At long last, the NA servers have made a return with some major infrastructure changes behind the scenes. There are still a few things things I need to take care of (daily scene rotation randomization for example) but the servers are ready to go through some stress testing. I can only hope that this time around, they don't lag like before.

If you do run into performance problems, please report them here and try to note details such as whether it seemed to be server-side or a bad connection and how many people were on the server at the time.

Regards,
Kip and the NI Team

Hello everyone,

Halloween has arrived once again and with it our Halloween themed servers and double xp. This event would have been brought up sooner but I had been hoping to have NA ready from the start. Unfortunately, that has not been possible. Because the event started so late, it will continue until at least November 8th.

If all goes to plan, the NA servers will be back up during the middle of the event. My apologies for how long they have been down. Shifting to what should be a more stable system has proved a much slower process than I expected.

Happy Halloween and enjoy the event!

Upgraded legendary recipes have rotated to October.

Hello everyone,

As many of you might have already noticed, we now have Chinese servers with each difficulty available (Beginner, Normal, Hard, Ragnarok, and Cavalry). These servers are located in Shanghai, CN, and will be 100% funded by donations. If funding fall short for these servers, they will end up closing until a donation is made to bring them back.

All the usual NI rules still apply to these servers with the exception that both English and Chinese may be used. A translation of the rules has been written and is still being refined.

As a reminder:
- Our EU, NA, and AU servers still require chat to be in English.
- If an admin joins a CN server speaking English, please try to respond in English if possible.
- There are a lot of new players on these servers so as always, please try to guide them and not flame them for not understanding something.
- If there are any issues with the servers, please let us know.
- For now, house events run on the CN servers will take the place of either the Beginner or Cavalry server.

If you have any questions, please respond here.

Thanks! (and special thanks to Aslan for supporting the Chinese community with his donations)

Chinese Translation

大家好,

你们很多人可能已经注意到，我们现在拥有了所有难度的中国服务器(初学者、普通、困难、仙境传说和骑兵)。这些服务器位于中国上海，全部由捐款支持。如果这些服务器的资金不足，那最终它们将会关闭，直到有人重新捐助资金后，服务器才会重新开启

所有NI的规则依然适用于这些服务器，但可以同时使用英语和汉语。规则的翻译已经完成，目前还在完善中。

一些提醒:
-当玩家在EU, NA和AU服务器游戏时仍然需要使用英语聊天。
-如果管理员加入一个CN服务器并说英语，请服务器内的玩家使用英语回复（会说英语的情况下)。
-这些服务器中有很多新玩家，所以请尽量引导他们，不要因为他们不理解某些东西而激怒他们。
-如果服务器有任何问题，请通知我们。
-目前，在CN服务器上举行家族活动将会以替换初学者服务器或骑兵服务器来进行。

如果你有任何问题，请在这里回复。

谢谢!(特别感谢阿斯兰对中国社区的支持与捐赠)
