    I believe you ment 24 hours for free.

    You also mention that a winner will recieve "our next MMO." I thought the Tale in the Desert series was soley subscription-based; will this change in the next ATITD reincarnation, or do you guys have a whole new game planned?

    The bone-chilling scream split the warm summer night in two, the first
    half being before the scream when it was fairly balmy and calm and
    pleasant, the second half still balmy and quite pleasant for those who
    hadn't heard the scream at all, but not calm or balmy or even very nice
    for those who did hear the scream, discounting the little period of time
    during the actual scream itself when your ears might have been hearing it
    but your brain wasn't reacting yet to let you know.

    Yes, I did forget the word hours, thank you.

    And we have a whole new game in the works , but we will still continue to improve ATITD.

    Someone asked a good question:

    "Are the stories told in character, or OOC testimonials by players, or either?"

    The answer is either, thier could be a winner for both.

    Ouisim,  You may want to copy and paste this to your own topic in this forum.  It will make it easier for the judges. Like Roc's.

    Any info anywhere about this? Havent read any of the books in years but interested

    According to the Wiki:  The Tales of Alvin Maker is a series of novels by Orson Scott Card that revolve around the experiences of young man, Alvin Miller, who discovers he has incredible powers for creating and shaping things around him.  It takes place in an alternate history of the American frontier in the early 19th century.

    What this has to do with a Desert and MMO is anyones guess - im hoping for the 3 months free but the book sounds interesting.

    The books are pretty interesting,being set in an alternate reality, early america. I just hadnt heard any rumors of a game being built around it.

    Yes, we have yet to release any information. Other then Mr. Card and Our Lead developer are on pretty good terms.

    I would expect news on the game in October.
