Test Reset

Well it certainly indeed was another glorious day for the races. The crowds gathered from far and near to once again spectate the 5th resetting of the test server. With the fourth test winding down CaptSturm elegently stroked on his keyboard and up from the ground came all sorts of amazing beasts. With the cheering from the crowd, CaptSturm put on a summoning show only rivaled by Mickey in Fantasia. And as quickly as they came the world ended.

And for 35 agonizing minutes this reporter tried to get back on to make sure he was one of the first people back into the world for the 5th time. On the 36th minute expectations turned to shock as the screen opened wide and let me choose my character. With name chosen I welcomed the new world and to my horror and dismay there were already 226 people on the server. Within another 15 minutes there were an AMAZING 528 people on this one server. The server has yet to see below 450 people all day. So much for unspoiled lands.

With jostling back and forth and some tempers flaring everyone was out of the gate and aiming for that ever popular first gossip to indicate the hurdle of level 30. But this reporter came out of the gate too fast and before he knew it was talking to some old cronies. And before he knew it, needed a nap.

But one stallion came pounding through the gates before anyone had time to set their flashes. Mountain, in just under 8.25 hours, globaled an innocent selling price for a friend in need. Then all was quite again. Then around 9 hours into the race another simple message from JESUSCHRIST "Good luck to you all" and he was gone. Then the flood gates opened and several came through in a rush. And once again we were entertained by the silliness of global and why many don’t miss it on LOA.

The top 7 finishers as of the 12 hour mark are:

Mountain
JESUSCHRIST
Omen
MagicGod
KAKAROTE
MRSPARKLE
Baphomet

Congrats to you all and good luck to everyone on the upcoming Test Server!

Special thanks go out to slashface (two images), kstyles, magicgod, and, mrsparkle for input used in the article.

Maybe it's just me, but doesn't playing non-stop for 8.25 hours to be the first person to lvl 30 seem a little sad to anyone else?

Like I said, maybe it's just me.

anyway... yea before test wipe was really fun i remember we lead anth from ww to giran and couldnt end him we even had him stuck in a pledge house for a while and he wasnt hitting cuz he was at door, but some guy from pledge opened door and kicked us out of the house. I de-lvled my knight from 43-28. By end i was with leather jacket and dagger hitting anth.

Poor people relly dont have anything better to do then to spend their time on a video game that only earns u respect from the other ppl with no lives !
PPL in this game have to relize it is just a game its not gonna help u out in anyway in the future ! think of it as a hobby! not a lifestyle!

ummm....if you have ever played lineage you know you can easilly put in 8 or more hours without realizing it..so why is that so stupid to hit level 30 during that time? i dont play lineage anymore..just wanted to point out the fact that half the things you people say dont add up...

the reason time passes so fast in lineage is
1) because its fun...
2) the hunting system. Each hunt is at least 30 min(1poly). I mean most people stay and hunt til their morph runs out. And if your a summon mage 1hr~1hr 10min.
Who would wana waste their summons and get off early.

so after 2-3 hunts as a mage thats already 3 hours + whatever time you spend on screwing around in town/chat etc.
