Helgraf Dragon (who I know as Ironhand on LiveJournal) is currently waiting for our fearless leader to return from his honeymoon and get signed up as an official part of the team!

And then there were four…

It seems I just landed back in , and already I’m off again. This is it, the big weekend — as of about 1:30 PM on October 20th, I’ll be a married man. We’ll be honeymooning in , flying into on the 24th of the month.

Which means that I’ll be back at some point in early November (would that I could get more time off of work, but the Jamboree used up all my good graces in that regard).

In the meantime, Reclaimer and Sslaxx will continue their development on the game, and I’ll enable them to at least post news to the site if it strike them fitting to do so. More s, and possibly even a music track, will be forthcoming once I’m back from ‘cross the Pond.

Another member has signed on to the team. We would like to welcome Stuart “Sslaxx” Moore to the project.

Sslaxx will be assisting with composing the that will drive in-game events, and will also be taking on some responsibilities of map development just as soon as he finishes configuring his Windows box.

Also, Reclaimer Dragon has informed me that he has some ability with music, and so will be composing versions of classic tunes for the Lost Sosaria soundtrack, in addition to his role as a mapper. This is an unforeseen development, but one that we welcome.

On a personal note: this show of support from the Ultima community has been both welcome and overwhelming for me, especially since it has all really solidified in the last couple of weeks.

So…thank you. It’s a hell of a wedding gift, and it thrills me to no end.

would like to welcome Wyatt “Reclaimer Dragon” Mahaffey to the development team for the project. His addition to the project has both prompted and justified the creation of a Team Roster page, where can be found a bit of information about the people developing Lost Sosaria.

Reclaimer’s main task at present will be developing the northern islands of the map. However, he has also begun making suggestions as to plot points that could be pursued, and I personally expect that he will have several valuable contributions to make to the project in terms of story in the none-too-distant future.

In other news: I’m thinking of trying out some different site layouts, and wouldn’t mind a bit of visitor input.

And finally: the addition of a new team member is spectacular, and an event we wouldn’t mind repeating.
