Yeah - I noticed those goats/sheep too... they were in a, previously unaccesable, area in the woodlands.

There was also a situation where someone was "inviting" people to come to the woodlands... however, right at the woodlands enterance... the was a whole swarm of monsters (snakes, black scorpions, I wasn't able to identify all of them) that would almost always kill anybody attempting to get past them...

I'm wondering if someone hacked into the server.... and the server is now down to get rid of those "anomalies"....

I think I understand what happened to the server... I'm not sure, but hopefully it's worth mentioning.

The person that was "inviting" folks over to the woodlands - was a character named "Platyna...." (.... = there was more to the character name, but I honestly can't remember all of it)

It turns out that Platyna is the alias for the person who actually hosts the server for this game.

I can only assume that he is also part of the development team....

So, it might be that he was testing out some new additions and features for the game -- before the server went down.

I don't know......

What happened was the server had a memory leak, and now the account server won't work. TMW is down.

Dear Arilious,
Thanks for the explanation - I appreciate it. Just out of curiosity - Do you know what caused the memory leak, was it something already in the game code, or was it something that was introduced with the new updates?

Again - thanks again for the reply!

So they finally released Yuuki’s mouboos monster

Its a she and most of us know that she is in control of the server

Yes, we had some technical server problems and no, it was not caused by a hacker.

The server is now up and running again.
