##7 Finally, Beta2.1 is out!
##0 We are proud to announce the launch of Beta2.1 tonight. This
##0 update brings a lot of bug fixes. We also did a lot of dialogues and
##0 quest fixes. Translators greatly helped too! Thanks to everyone
##0 who contributed.
##0 As Evol developers already started working on future releases,
##0 some improvements, that were not supposed to come in so soon, were
##0 implemented in this release. We improved and added graphics,
##0 cleaned databases, added a new indoor sunlight effect. We hope
##0 you'll like it!
##0 ManaPlus also got improved along with its awesome new Jewelry
##0 Theme! You can now play Evol Online on Android and Mac OS X,
##0 enjoy! Special thanks to Socapex for his wonderful work, creating
##0 the ManaPlus Mac OS X application.

##7 End of the World, Epic Fail
##0 We just released Beta2 and we hope you enjoyed all of the cool new
##0 features it brang! This took us a lot of time to put in place but
##0 sadly, we will soon need to release a small update to fix several
##0 bugs.
##0 Some of us also started working on future releases, that is why
##0 this bug fixing release, called Beta2.1, will be release in a
##0 month. In addition, we need to let translators do their job, and
##0 that takes time!
##0 Moreover, ManaPlus never stops getting better, as well as the
##0 brand new Jewelry Theme, thanks to 4144 and Hal9000! Check it out!
##0 Stay tuned for the Beta2.1 release!
##9 -- Regards, Alige.

##7 What a scary... I mean... weird development team!
##0 Hey, why did the ship stop?! Was that under Nard's orders? Lets
##0 find out! Oh no, giant pumpkins overran all of the boat! It seems
##0 you must get ready for battle. You can sense something very
##0 powerful and evil at the far bottom of the ship. You should check
##0 it out. Maybe Bachus, the party spirit, could help you throughout
##0 this. We hope you'll enjoy this Halloween event.
##0 Once again, Evol Online developers are in a rush. Beta2 takes a
##0 whole lot longer than they thought but this is of course to avoid
##0 any kind of issue. Again, a numerous amount of bugs were fixed and
##0 scripts were mostly all rewritten for a better game experience.
##0 As a lot of dialogues were added and improved for Beta2,
##0 translations are needed more than ever. Even though some developers
##0 also work on these, they cannot afford working on all of them.
##0 If you feel like you can help developers in any way, especially for
##0 translations if you speak english fluently, feel free to contact
##0 them using Evol Online's IRC developer channel.
##9 -- Regards, Alige.

##7 End of summer, beginning of Beta2!
##0 Summer holidays are now over for the Evol Online developers. We are
##0 proud to announce the arrival of Beta2 soon, even though we
##0 unfortunately find ourselves currently behind schedule.
##0 However, a lot of efforts were made to create a lot of new content
##0 and great new tilesets which took for ever to create and fix.
##0 We are currently fixing bugs and preparing the release. Final
##0 modifications are being made to give you the best release ever made
##0 for this project.
##0 Among the new features is a Quest Window that has been added to the
##0 client. It will help you see your progress in game.
##0 When the Beta2 release will be out, we would like you to promote it
##0 by simply spreading the word around you. Players will then be aware
##0 of the news and this may help us expand our community.
##0 As you already now, new contributors are always welcome!
##0 Translators, artists and even writers are free to contact us for
##0 more information.
##9 -- Regards, Alige.

##0 Once more, a lot of work has been done, recently on the consistency
##0 and quality of the game. A lot of new graphics will be part of the
##0 next release, Beta2. Interactivity between the player and the game
##0 was our main goal the past weeks.
##0 This new dynamic and gaming experience will be revealed throughout
##0 animations full of mysteries. Treasure chests, coconuts and new
##0 have appeared on a brand new map!
##0 The work on the translations, the repository reorganizations and
##0 on top of all, the client, were one of our main concerns lately.
##0 The developers still need a bit of time in order to finish this
##0 release, thus we thank you for waiting.
##9 -- Regards, Alige.
