I just spent an hour explaining to my Girlfriend how important RWL is to my life. But... now it looks like 2 or 3 people remain... what is going on over here? Did the admins leave too?
boo
Shadow is around every once in awhile....
And me.
ish.
Pretty quiet here.
QMT closed up shop earlier this year, Promi is about gone.
Had a great run though
Windy, can you undisable my girlfriend in reg. She's Feathered Fox #1156?
I don't know how she got disabled...
EarthEmpires.com has thousands of players.
Done.
EarthEmpires looks promi-based, but I don't see any mention of what it's based on? Is it a QMT clone?
A couple hundred players ain't bad.
Thanks.
It's possible Earth Empires was built from te ground up. They have a decent mobile layout too. It's similar to classic qmt try only added a couple of elements. The research element seems interesting because I think if you get beaten down to nothing, you still have the knowledge of how to produce things in a more productive way and no one can take that from you.
I'm still hanging around.
BITCHES AIN'T poo BUT HOES AND TRICKS
Nah but Promisance is based on Earth, not the other way around. Promisance was basically the poorly coded unbalanced offshoot that took off when those type of games were popular. Blackhawk made Prom 1.0, then EZclan and such came around and were a bit better, then QMT came around and redid their own version with the nonsense code we have all come to know and love.
Promisance is based off Earth2025 which closed down and spawned Earth Empires.
Hows everyone doing? We have a Promisance chat room where the remaining Prom Survivors hang out https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.snoonet.org:+6697/QMTchat
Come chat with us and lets keep the community alive and everyone united.
We are the last survivors and we should try to expand what we are sentimentally attached to and figure out a marketing strategy among all of us to get more players to come enjoy promisance with us.
There are a few other servers running right now but none of them have many more players then Redwall. BTW Redwall was my favorite book in high school I read it freshman year and lovvvved it! I was playing Promisance before I read Redwall and couldn't believe that someone else loved it as much as me and made a Prommy game on the book. How small is the world when 2 people like the same Promisance game and Redwall so much that one of them combind the two into a special game.
This is a place where throughout our life we could leave reality and find our happy place no matter what was going on outside of the game in our real life we could always be free and happy here.
LET PROMISANCE LIVE!!!
I still poke around once in a while. I've just been letting the servers do their thing, though, as it seems like we're going the way of FaF and others.
Not too surprising, but it was indeed a good run.
Theres no since of giving up on the game. Start helping promote it. Join gaming forums and add www.redwallwarlords.com to your signature and start getting involved in discussion. Add a little brief description like "Check out this cool browser war game it's totally free"
Recently i've been playing this promisance http://singularity.taniarascia.com and having a great time doing it. It looks really cutting edge and its fall out theme. Come check it out.
We need to stick together. Come join the chatroom i mentioned above and work with us to make promisance great again. There should be 3 or 4 prommy related games at all times that are full of players we can bounce around too.
Maybe set up a server game that is special "Return to Redwall". Send annoying spam to all the emails in the data base. Set up would be a few weeks to log on, then a shot gun start with email going out. Aid would be greatly reduced to discourage ganging up. Run the game for 3 months. Have awards for most everything. And a few voted on ones like "most helpful".
Oh .... HI!
Wolf Bite
I definitely miss it, that's for sure. I would love to come back and keep working on it, time is the issue. Although I work from home now....so....it could be a possibility.
Also, hi. =)
Hey Shael.
I spent some time looking at the stats and the decline is bad. This place meant a lot to many people during informative years. Some great friends were made. If the site is going to go down, then let it do so with a BANG! ... Which may be the CPR it needs to come back alive.
If we can get some of the big names from over the years to pre-confirm and the line up is announced in the spam, and everyone must play under their best known name, it could really be big. People will not want to miss the reunion, whether to be part of it or just to watch. Old friends can reconnect. Geeez, I bet some of the "kids" who used to hang out here have kids of their own by now. Logging in every 3 days for 3 months is all that is asked for. Even with work and such, people should be able to make that. (Just thinking out loud)
Wolf Bite
That's a really good idea wolf bite.
(Hi guys! I am still alive!)
I'd be down for playing some RWL again. After the poo-storm that has been my life this past year, I could use a little distraction. Not sure about this Singularity game though.

's Tania's (Menatus), I doubt she cares enough to have people spam the link around, but whatevs.
And sure.... I might play for a bit
Want to set a tentative start date for Aug 1st?
Would set the aid restriction based on networth, someone lower than you who needs a hand could get it, but it would be good to restrict propping someone up.
This site is, what, approaching 14 years old; I know we've had younger players than that in the past.
..........means I joined when I was 15ish, and RWL has been around for ~ half my life
wat.
I'll play a set of RWL to rub up against Volkov and Shadow like good old times.
But yeah, QMT shut down recently and someone found Singularity so some of us went there, but Tania seems to never have intended to run a Prom long term. QMT is dead, Valhall is dead, WGZ NWO etc. have all gone the way of the dodo. Add to that the fact that the domains that expired were snatched up or are now valued in the thousands and things are looking grim for our once... dramatic and grim community. But the end has been nigh for like a decade anyways. Some people are kicking around ideas for new games given that we now know that like 1,000+ people play the games Prom was based upon so it's still plenty viable. I mean QMT wasn't in such bad shape, it just had conspiracy theorists going nuts all over the place and people faking their own deaths for attention and stuff so it got so toxic it just kind of tore itself apart.
My point is that a Prom can totally still work. I mean Singularity had like 30 random new players at first. It's just running an insanely broken QM code which is in no way a reflection upon the admin, she's just using what was made available so all those new players got to experience the wonders of hitting 5mil networth then having no idea how to finance turns.

I'm down. We should make it a themed round, maybe Storehouse.
I'll be there, Aug 1st - and I shall bring the many bannerman of House 'Tooth with me! (ie. me and Sharp will play too).
Quote's Tania's (Menatus), I doubt she cares enough to have people spam the link around, but whatevs.
Ah, OK. Sevah was apparently there too at one point. He messaged me on Facebook telling me to join his clan.
August 1st sounds good, though I might miss a run early on, I'm probably going to Gencon this year, and that runs from Aug 4th through the 7th. Would be good to see in game again too Death.
That sounds like an awful situation over at QMT. Makes me kinda glad that RWL just seems to be more fading away, and not tearing itself apart. Of course with guys like Shadow and Holbs as mods, its hard to see conspiracy theorists sticking around here long enough to create a toxic environment.
I don't know if I'd be up for getting back into Prom games in general though. I just don't have the passion for it like I used too. We'll see how this special round goes, maybe it will reignite my interest.
Oh darn if this is gonna be a thing I'll make sure I'll be there. Glad to see y'all are still around.
If we do Storehouse, will teams be random? I'm down with that tbh.
I dunno, I'd almost prefer it to be No Clans. Using the Storehouse for a big thing like this just doesn't seem right. Doesn't really fit into wolf bite's idea, in my opinion. A big event with all the old players coming back and everyone playing their most famous names, I think it should be fairly similar to the base RWL code, the one we all started playing on. Just speaking for myself, I never really liked the storehouse rounds. I just didn't find the concept or the execution all that engaging.
It definitely shouldn't be storehouse. I think making it a game in which everyone is on their own would be the way to go.
I could play a set for old time's sake, why not
So I did some poking around and RWL doesn't even pop-up if you google search promisance, anything we can do to change that?
We also used to be the first result when you searched for "redwall game", now we're on the second page. :(
If you search "redwall game(s)" we show up on the first page.
Can't we code "promisance" into the background on all the web pages or something so it returns search results? Admittedly web design and search algorithms are not my strong suit, but I thought that was a thing......?
I'm new here!
As a lifelong Redwall fan and a total newcomer to the game I'd be incredibly sad to see it dry up and die just as I finally make it in the door.
we're still kicking. The game is quieter than it used to be, but there's enough activity to make it fun. Welcome!
