Ladies and Gentlemen:
Without further ado here is what all the teasers have been about.
************************************************
New MJ2 Website Live ASAP
New MJ2 Rulebook posted on the new Website!
************************************************
So here is the deal. We have requested the transfer of www.mythicaljourneys.com to go to our new MJ2 website. However, these things apparently take up to 2 weeks to complete! We did not wish to make you wait any longer so we have setup
http://www.mythicaljourneys.net for your use in the mean time.
So for Now Please Use:
http://www.mythicaljourneys.net (note the .NET)
What you will and will not be getting…..
Rulebook:
We know you have been waiting patiently for this and we truly appreciate it. Now the wait is (mostly) over!
Here is the next version of the Mythical Journeys: Renaissance rulebook, available for download as a PDF.
Please note, this is NOT the finished rulebook This is another preview, the trailer following the teaser. The rules are 99% complete, we just need to polish them up, add some color text, and some pretty pictures, etc. However, there was no need to make you wait any longer to get started.
Please let us know if any of these rules are unclear, or seem contradictory. Don't worry about spelling, grammar, etc. This is a work in progress. We know you want to start designing your characters, and what you need to do so is in here.
Again, we really appreciate your patience as we work towards designing the best game possible for you.
Website:
Some of the New Features:
You can use your existing MJ1 account (if it was created before this week)
New Message Board
Editing of Posts
We know you have been waiting for this
Couriered (Private) Messaging
Now you people can send you information without you giving out your email. The site will send you an email telling you that there is a message waiting.
Group and Individual Security on Boards
We can now allow individuals access to certain boards or entire groups!
Member Control of Boards
We can now setup group message boards that YOU control! Who can come in, editing and deleting of posts etc!
Colored coded icons for New / Read posts
Red means unread / Blue means Read (heheh yes we did it that way cause it made us chuckle)
Report Post Feature
This will send an email to the board moderators about any post you find offensive. We try to monitor these boards as much as possible but sometimes we miss things.
Announcements
We now have the ability to post "sticky" messages that show up on all the boards. This will only be used in rare cases but no more worry of missing important announcements.
Many other Admin Features
Racial / Region Packets
There are several available in the Library. More will be added as we go. You can find the Library under the Members Menu

Continuous Updates
As many of you know we are CONSTANTLY working to improve our website and our game as a whole. With this in mind keep watching as we will be adding new sections, new features and new content as we go forward!
Website - Missing:
Online updating.
Yes, yes we know you really want to create your character and enter it into the system. However, the online just is not ready yet. We did not want to make you wait for everything else while we finished. We will be posting new things as time goes on.
Points:
We have them still, we are just not showing them. They are all part of the overall updating system and we can't show this one piece. Don't fret though they have not gone anywhere :)
