On the main page: www.pandorauo.com, under play/holidays it says that winterfest is coming.

Is that an older event or something that is still in the works?

How close were you to the 24 hr timer?  Maybe only one of them was past it and the others off by a couple minutes?

Which reminds me, I forgot what time I did it last night  :/

This is the link I used to get Steam from the main site (not wiki or community) under "play".

The main site link works, used it last night.

It's all good on the wiki, lol.  I just like learning as much as I can before jumping into something.

Must be no one talking, haven't seen anything in general chat which made me think it wasn't connected.

Can bring up the list of people on.

Joined up tonight.

Look for Culann

Currently beating on a training mongbat to raise some skills.

Can't seem to figure out how to join chat.

i like the catagories too.  My home is Industrial, so i can get the +5 to crafting..

That's what I'm wondering and the wiki doesn't go into it.  What are the bonuses the different house types give?

And since can have multiple houses, can you have multiple bonuses?

Excelsior had the ability to combine plots.  It was pretty cool.

Housing has always been a big factor in games for me.

I have noticed that the wiki seems out of date?

I like the idea of having different classifications for housing and can have up to 10 per account?

What are the bonuses?

Some background first:
I played UO back from Renassiance to Age of Shadows and quit to play other MMOs, including some freeshards.  Came back about a year ago.  Quit and came back a month or so ago and it's just not the same and don't think I'm finding what I'm looking for.

I'm really only looking for something to play a couple hours a week and having a hard time justifying the monthly expense of UO for that amount of playtime and the lack of people to play with.

I have no problem donating. I played on Excelsior for awhile.  I like the F2P model that freeshards tend to follow, pay when you want to get something, instead of the regular monthly fee.

I spent some time on the wiki for Pandora and there is a lot to like.  Some unique things, but not that far off from regular UO.

How active is the shard?  I'd be playing from like 10 to midnight, EST, usually.

Not the biggest fan of unlimited skills but I can deal with that.

I looked into F2P games and none of them seem to fit what I want in a game. UO has always done that.

One of the biggest things I've always liked is the housing system.  Pandora seems to fit into that niche (town building seems possible).

So, how is Pandora?
