Welcome GM Mellow

Mellow has completed his training as a GM and is now ready to be a full GM on Wrath of the Lich king. Please give him a warm welcome and now you can poke him with various kinds of questions!

-Atari

Tripled rates given, but there is more!

The tripled rates are given for the next 7 days now. Please keep voting for our server to maintain the ranks throughout this week.
To raise the alliance population on the TBC realm we have decided that from now till the end of this month (May) every alliance that hits level 70 will get a second level 70 gift!He or she can choose from either a Season 2 item (not weapon/mount) or a Badge of Justice item (not a weapon/mount either).

Keep voting and have fun leveling that new character!

-Atari

Monthly vote event

To increase the population on both our realms we are starting the vote event again for this month: May. This is a big vote event with a big reward!

If the following criteria are met, for at least 4 consecutive days, We will triple all the XP rates (mobs, quests, explore,..), all money rates (also level 70-quest-money), rest rate, item drop rate, gathering rate and reputation on both realms for 7(!) days! We will also stock the Auctionhouse with cheap leveling gear!

If we:
- reach a place below 35 at the XtremeTop100 list for TBC.
- reach a place below 25 at the MMORPG Toplist for TBC.
- reach a place below 30 at the Gtop100 list for TBC
- be below 20 at the WoWstatus website for TBC.
- get a spot below 35 on the first page of the rival toplist

And to help our friends at the Wrath of the Lich King realm too:
- reach a place below 35 at the WoW status list for WoTLK

You can find all these vote links on our website main page: http://www.excalibur-wow.com

You can vote for each link every 12 hours. So please try and vote every day. Or for the hardcore gamers, vote twice a day ;)
If we reach those criteria, it's time to go grind that instance until you finally get that one item with terrible droprate.

But wait! There is more! After these goals are reached, we will be starting a new vote event for a weekend with double badges and double honor. Those will be applied if the goals can be maintained for yet another 7 days.

Kind Regards,
ExcaliburWoW Staff

Unexpected downtime for the both realms

Today we tried deleting some unused characters resulting in a locked up processor. It seems there are a lot of unused characters gathering dust, and it is not a smart move to delete them all at once :)

Our apologies for the downtime, and we will be deleting these characters a few at a time. As always, nothing was lost and there is no rollback.

Greetings,
Atari

News news news!

Firstly, please welcome our new trials, Twikie and Crixus. They are only trainies so go easy on them please ;)
Secondly, congratz to GM Ameretat and Clearance for becoming full GMs. Great job you two!
And last but not least, please give a big welcome back to GM Sapphire, she found the time to GM once again! Welcome back Kitty ;)

Congratz and welcome back!

rev. 005 Update

Today we are performing a short maintenance to put revision 005 live. This revision includes an overhaul of the map system, resulting in better movement generators for mobs and players. In short, this might help with the falling under terrain in PvP and will make sure mobs do not aggro you trough walls or other game objects.

Thank you for your patience as we update the server,
Atari
