    [​IMG] That's right. This weekend, A Land Far Away is celebrating it's second birthday since it went live. To mark this occasion, we have many events occuring throughout our community.


    But before I get onto that - What is A Land Far Away?

    A Land Far Away (ALFA for short) is a massive NWN RP PW World, whose goal is to reproduce Forgotten Realms using the NWN engine. Currently we have around 15 Live Servers, most of them containing well over 300 areas, many nearing the 1000 area mark. This, combind with our membership numbers (1018 players and 76 DMs) makes us one of the largest Persistant Worlds out there. We focus very heavily on Role Playing, always remaining In Character while we are playing.

    There are two ways to get into ALFA. First of them is our traditional way, which has been around as long as we have (since 2 months after NWN was first announced, I believe) - the Written Application. This can be found here and takes about 15 minutes to fill in (give or take 5 minutes, depending on how imaginitive you are). The applications are then read over and you should have a reply within a week!
    The second way is slightly different. You log onto our OAS (Open Applications Sever) where you're RP will be... monitored (for a lack of a better word), while DMs DM you. If they think you're suited for ALFA you'll get in automatically, without any application.


    Now, what are we doing to celebrate our 2nd Anniversary? Throughout ALFA we are kicking off a new global plot, which will touch every server in one way or another - thanks to our DM crew. These are server shaking plots, which will change the way you know the place, and give every PC a chance to be involved.

    But what's more, the Open Application Server DM Team will be running special events throughout the weekend, giving all those people who want to get a feel for ALFA, or to join ALFA, a great chance to do so, and hopefully a lot of fun as they go about it!

    Look foward to seeing you there! 8)

    Be sure to take note of the Forum Drama over there. Don't worry, it's perfectly normal. If there's ever a week without Forum Drama, then you need to worry. ;)
