GM Wyrom on Duskruin Mania – August 2026

DUSKRUIN MANIA: GM Wyrom had a bit to say about today’s Mania event, noting that the event is intentionally unpredictable and focused on fun, with an assortment of zany high-end items, possible deals, and maybe even door prizes. Bring deeds just in case, and slowdown taxes may apply! Read what he said here:

Just a reminder and a place to post after Mania concludes tomorrow that we are scheduled for August 29th at 3pm ET. It’s been on the calendar for I think a 2 hour duration, but it will almost definitely run longer. I just didn’t want to add more time in case we do end early and someone planned their day around crashing the last 30 minutes.

As we discussed last time, the teasers and plans aren’t something that mesh well for this event. The idea is it’s unpredictable. I don’t want to get too beat up about it not matching what a previous one did or what something was implied, so we just roll with it and try to have fun. That’s the ultimate goal, fun, for everyone involved.

Another thing that I’ve pointed out before that I’ll repeat here, Mania isn’t intended to be slashed prices and deals, but they happen. I try to do a mix of stuff, but Mania tends to be a distribution vehicle for zany high end stuff.

Door prizes and a group exp (RPA) are always possible, even when I say I don’t want to do them, so probably best to come. We do use the “you’ve got to be paying attention” button to do door prizes now.

I have an arsenal of stuff to sell and giveaway. Just to get ahead of any hopes and dreams, I don’t have any plans on custom scripts, combining scripts, private properties, and combining enhancives. Nothing new is debuting, so anything that already exists may come along. This is strictly talking about scripts. Maybe new combinations of properties show up.

Have deeds, just in case.

Slowdown taxes may apply!
