Sliced bread time to move over... Sliced bread never made me feel nostalgic so from now on I am going to say this is the best thing since wayback machine!


AKA this is awesome!

Yo, I remember doing this. I checked the "Who's Online" link at various times in '03 and '04, trying desperately to find myself amongst the 70+ players. Finally found myself, and it was awesome. I also remember finding Arilou in there in 2002 or something, listed as a player.

Not possible. I logged into Arilou for less than a half hour before being promoted and this happened in a month (January 2003) that the Wayback Machine has no snapshots of said list. So if I am on any of the recorded who's online pages, then it would have been after my promotion - I was actually visible quite a lot back in the day and logged long hours, so it wouldn't surprise me if it captured that. Another possibility is that you got tricked by someone who made a name similar to mine - There were a few that had to be banished over the years.

Going through the who's online is quite fun. I found arisu as a level 5, and a wizard named Galdor that I've never heard of before.

Arilou 02-21-2012 12:17 PM

Galdor coded the Rogue's Guild.

Heh, yeah. I must've confused you for someone else.

In that case, my hat's off to Galdor and Arilou. My dwarf rogue was the most fun character I have ever made in Wyvern.

It took me a while to find me in the archives, but I finally did in 2005 as a level 20 mage. As well as my brother, Jango, who rarely ever plays/played.

Btw the link to the wayback machine in this thread worked for me to be able to see the old site again, incase anyone wanted to take a look.

Rejoice! =D

I don't know why I like going to a website that doesn't actually even function for a game that isn't around anymore, but I love it! Anyway, I can attest to the truth of this. =)

Went back down. How lovely. The other day I felt like reminiscing. Sad face.

Arilou 05-03-2015 06:48 PM

It's up again now so you should make use of it while you can before it goes away again.

Btw, I think I showed great restraint in not shouting; "The Wyvern website is up again! The Wyvern website it up again!" and then smirking at the annoyed people when I explained to them that I was technically being truthful; I just didn't say that it was up again on the Way Back Machine. I should get a halfling arm or maybe a leg of rakshasa for resisting my natural instincts this time. What do you say, Nodlove? You don't really need both of your arms, do you?

Jacksparow 05-05-2015 03:41 AM

Thank you for the update Arilou. You may just have a heart after all:D

Arilou 05-08-2015 11:15 PM

Or not - I have known that it's been back for awhile and only just recently thought to say anything about it.

Jacksparow 05-29-2015 07:11 PM

laerad [help] shouts: is there a way to prevent curse, aside from scroll and spell?
whippz [help] shouts: don't fight monsters with curse

I saw that on an image from the wayback machine, and I had a good giggle out of it.
