The server move for slickproductions is complete. With any luck, no one even noticed the forum downtime (~20 minutes). If anything seems amiss on our new home, please contact Lenophis or me. Cheers.

Hey Everyone, slick's admin here. Looks like you're going to be reminded that I exist again for a little while, as we move to another server yet again. I'll be performing the move over the next few days, and with any luck you'll never even notice. Except that I'll lock down the forms for a few hours during the database switchover. Yay. I'll post again when its all said and done, sorry for the inconvenience.

It's been a while since we've had any public discussion about this one, but now is not the time for talk. It's time for action. That's right, THE FF6 Hack gets a public demo, and one that is long overdue. What does this mean?
- We're still working on it yet, and we still have a long way to go before it's finished.
- You guys get to rip us once again for what we do and do not have available for play.
Some of the changes you may (or may not) find during this demo:
- A new dungeon!
- 118 bugs fixed, all from the original FF6 game. A special thanks to the many patch authors who released the fixes they did.
- Far too many core changes to improve the game. Having said that, make sure you take a peek in the configuration screen.
- Restoration of lost and removed content, which is mostly contained in dialogue.
- Item changes-- some old, some new, some gone, so look around!
- Several event tweaks, a couple overhauls, and lots of additions. Yes, you will get to experience the Auction House, the Magitek Research Facility, and one banquet in particular.
Going into further detail would be long, boring, and tl;dr. In the end, after four years of work to this date, we think many will be pleased. However, since this is the internet, and for some it's real life, we know that not everyone will be happy with some changes.
On behalf of the whole team, we thank everyone for their patience, their suggestions, and their feedback with this hack.
But enough talk, have at it! Make sure you read the readme, because nobody can help you if you don't.

To all of you that may have been voting for the various patches we have hosted here, you may have noticed that the voting did not work at all. Thanks to Hypher, that problem has been fixed. Hooray legacy PHP issues. 
Additionally, all hacks have had their votes reset to 0, so everything gets a clean slate. Some steps were taken to account for the spam votes, hopefully that's been taken care of. Rejoice.

To address the ongoing issue of dealing with email and submissions, I figured the best option now was to make a submission subforum right here. And that's what I did. It should be easier to poke me with stuff now instead of "did he read it yet?!" Hopefully things go smooth.

So "Tomorrow" on Friday turned into Tuesday night. Sorry about the lack of warning, but the sysadmin for the server couldn't do the upgrade on saturday, so it got moved, and I forgot to update this post. Anyways, slick is back and I'm working on bringing the other sites online now.

The sysadmin of Gopherbork is planning on installing Gentoo Linux on our server tomorrow (we're currently running Debian). The site will be down from about 10am PST till the upgrade is complete, hopefully less than 6 hours. See you all on the other side, from Gentoo!

Ahhh yes, the time of year when snow falls, it gets cold, and for some reason it's the only time of the year when people are nice to each other.
For some people, they go  trying to figure out what to get for people. Others may go just because they hadn't had time off in 5 months. Then there's the group of people that are  because they haven't a care in the world.
A good bunch of us are buried in snow, anywhere from 8 to 25 inches. That makes some people  because it involves shoveling, you lazy bastards.
And finally, a bunch of us will go  because some poor fools take pity on a bunch of us and give us presents, none of which any of us deserve.
So have a Merry Christmas from all of us here at Slick, because if you don't some treasure hunter thief may take it upon himself to loot your goodies.

Good News: The Server Transition is complete |

I wanted to let everyone know that the transition from Pair networks to Slicehost has been completed, and the domains redirected. As far as I know there was no downtime. I'm somewhat amazed that it all went so well.
The only thing not yet worked out on the public facing side of the transition is the forum's outgoing mail server, which I still need to setup on this server. Until then, the forum won't be able to send out mail, so please don't forget your passwords!

Good News! The main move of Slick Productions is complete. The forum has been upgraded to the latest version of SMF, and everything lives on our new awesome Slice Host server. Unfortunately, there are a few issues with the transition:
- I waited a bit too long with the domain transfer, and as such, there may be a period of time (the next five days or so) where the domain slickproductions.org is down. Sorry :/
 In the meantime, the site will live at http://slick.gopherbork.net - I haven't setup DKK's site or MNRogar's site on the new server yet. That will happen soon.
- The new version of SMF isn't compatible with our old themes, so everyone has been reset to the default (and rather obnoxious) pastel blue theme. As I'm not the one who created the themes, we'll have to wait till Leno or DKK can update them.
- Some of the most recent additions to the site haven't been transferred yet, but I should get that fixed soon.
Thanks to everyone for enduring this rough patch in Slick Productions life. I'm doing my best to get everything working.
