* '''August 12th''' - '''Dev jothegreat55555 needs staff members!'''

Dev jothegreat55555 is a server set in the time period of the 1940's in an Italian city. This isn't the friendliest part of town, if you catch our drift, and you will need to watch out for those mobsters! The server has plently to offer ranging from illegal item rackating, interesting card games, to underground boxing and more!

Work your way from the newcomer to the top! Become a head assassin, leader of a Mafia family, or maybe just settle down with a nice legitimate buisness.

* '''August 9th''' - '''The Light Hirings''' {{News/Playerworlds}}

Greetings. The Light is an aspiring modern server with stats and a basic rank leveling system involved. Basically, we want to recreate a mordern server with an RPG touch to it.

We are now undergoing huge development especially with our systems and tiles. Therefore, we are hiring professional or experienced staff to help out.

Here are a list of open hirings:

'''Scripters/NATs''' - We are currently needing committed scripters to help us.

'''GANI''' - We need GANI makers to help liven up The Light's environment and player-friendliness.

We would appreciate help from the Graal Community especially in these fields.

Please contact Name (DuBsTeRmAn) or Zorko (Dumdumdidi) for more infomation on hirings.

Thank you.

* '''August 4th''' - '''Mythic Legends Hirings''' {{News/Playerworlds}}

I'll keep myself short and go directly to the point. We're looking for a bit of a help.

'''Character Equipment/Sprites''' - Self-explanatory. Your job would be to create custom looks on sprites, new hairs, clothing equipment etc.

'''Icons''' - You'd be making 32x32 icons for currently existing items, spells and even skills/talents.

'''GUIs''' - The dreadful default GUIs need to be replaced, are you creative enough for it?

'''Interior and/or Exterior decorations''' - We're at a stage where inside levels are getting rapidly done, and the town is slowly getting bigger and bigger. However, while we might have tiles, we don't have anything to fill the levels with. That's where you come in! You'd get more or less free hands, but if anything is requested, why not do it right?

'''Tiles''' - The oh so glorious task of creating more tiles. Interested?

Any of the above are up for grabs. If you don't want a steady job, and just want to help here and there - that's fine. We can provide you with boots to get around the normally sealed off town, as well as a limited RC for uploading. If you do want to be actually hired with any of the above tasks as main priority, then even better.

Not hiring any coders, and doubtfully level makers - depends on how good you are.

All/most core systems are done, now it's just the visual part left before we're ready to rock. And trust me, we'll rock - heavy metal style!

Jkool666: /* Guild Wars */

{{playerworld}}

Zone is a futuristic battle server. It is currently a [[Graal]] [[Gold]] [[Server]].

==History==
Zone was previously managed by [[User:Angel|Angel]] and [[User:Dell|Dell]]. In December 2004 it became a Gold server.

==Maps==
Currently, there are 5 different maps on Zone. Each with their unique style of battle.

===Spar Arena===
This is a newer map that was added to replace Alpha. The Spar Arena is composed of two sparring areas and a practice area. The sparring areas are set up so you and another player can enter and spar with each other. The practice area is an area where you and others can go in and battle the practice bot.

===Wild Cross===
A deathmatch map - the last survivor wins. There is a time limit, the game ends drawn when the time runs out and there is still more than one player alive.

Members of the [[Events Team]] can change the rules, like specifying which weapons are allowed. On this map most events for event items are held.

===Guild Wars===
[[Image:Bridge Spar.png|right]]
A more tactical map for Zone. As class selection depends a lot on what you do to overcome the enemy.
This map is an elimination style map, meaning once you are dead you cannot return until the next round. There are new classes such as the engineer, which is the only class able to drive hover bikes and mechs.
The map also utilizes the Dark and Light side classes from the previous map "Zone Wars". These classes are the same as before, but the darkside powers now have a grenade launcher.
There are a special type of Scout and Medic on Gwars. The medic supports a blaster which can bounce foes about to knock them away and the Scout has the lavagun and dartgun.
There are 2 teleports to the lava caves, where only melee weapons are only allowed. This makes things a lot more instense if there are only a few on your team left. Also, some nice particle effects are used in the caves.
The [[Events Team]] can restrict the teams to special guild names, so that it is possible for guilds to compete against each other, or one guild can compete against the server.

Map was made by Stefan and Vulcan.
New weapon GFX made by Sayian.
New weapon Ganis made by Vulcan and Huwajux.
Map and weapon scripting done by Stefan.

===KOTH===
A classic king-of-the-hill map, up to 4 teams can take part in the battle for the center of the map. If one team has more players standing in the middle than the currently leading team, then it will take over the map. The first team that is protecting the hill for four minutes wins the round. The losing teams will get some time bonus in the next round, for balancing team strength. The [[Events Team]] can restrict the teams to special guild names, so that it is possible for guilds to compete against each other.

===Iricia===
Conquer all bases - take over the five bases and your team will win. The main base (Base1) is located at the northen region of the map, it is the base people mainly seek for domination as team members of whoever own the base are able to teleport there using their HQ. This is the most famous map since it allows quite long and challenging battles.
