- Updates -

Couple of recent things:
    - There is a new minesweeper game in the crazy cards cafe. It
      is much more user friendly than the old one, and runs much
      cleaner (meaning it dosen't bug out on every other move:).
      Everyone can thank Xena for creating this complicated piece
      of code.
    - A small new addition to the realms has been opened. It is a
      low level hunting grounds located around Kurly.
    - The values for the parts one gets from killing ants in the
      tunnels under the grasslands has been lowered. (this happened
      a week or so ago, so this really should have been in the
      earlier post).
    - Another modification to some emotes has been made. An example
      of this is pat. 'pat  ' is now supported. Where

    - The hedge maze has long been a headache of mine, because of
      an elusive bug that way extremely annoying and hard to find,
      but I think I finally caught it. My apologies to all of you
      who were stuck in the maze at one time or another due to it.
      (Also, if it bugs again, you can bop me on the head :)
