             --- THIS IS A PWIPE ANNOUNCEMENT ---

                       May you all die.

   You will all be deleted Friday, June 6th, 2025 at 11:00PM UTC.
   The new wipe will begin Saturday, June 14th, 2025 at 1:00PM UTC.

   The immortal staff has been tirelessly developing, creating, and coding
features for the upcoming wipe. The wipe opening will give way to possibly
the most extensive amount of changes performed in a single wipe in Arctic's
rich game history.

   New expansive zones are incoming, races and related stats have been
overhauled, reincarnation bonuses are freshened, scouts will have much
deserved flexibility in their play style, a new tier of dynamic items will
be introduced, mob AI has improved, code has been greatly refactored &
optimized, multiple bugs have been squashed, and countless other changes
remain to be told.

   The full wipe notes will be presented following the mass character
extinction and only after we have verified stability in the game server
with the patch. We hope to post the official 2025 wipe notes on the
ArcticMUD website within 24 hours after taking the game offline. The wipe
notes will be posted here:  http://arcticmud.org/pages/news.html.

   Until that time, experience, rank experience, and coin gains will be
doubled for the remainder of this wipe.

Thanks for playing Arctic,
