Event Where: Basilisk Server, Various Planets
The time has come to close the doors on a server that helped, time and time again, move our project ever forward. Basilisk was the first play/test server to fully run the Object Restructure branch, which was a foundational restructure of Core3. Basilisk started with very minimal features, replacing the Liberator server as the primary server for us here at SWGEmu and now comes to an end as a nearly complete Pre-CU SWG experience.
Many memories were made, within the community and staff, throughout the years that Basilisk has been online. It has provided bountiful information that attributes to the stability of the code base to this day, while giving a enjoyable play experience that we all so dearly missed from the Pre-CU days of live. We can now turn our full focus on Finalizer and that goal of 1.0, that continues to move closer each day.
Join us at the event for the final goodbye to all the great memories on Basilisk.
"Citizens of the Galaxy, Hear me. Your leaders, the Empire, have made a momentous decision. In this decision, they have turned back from your planets they would claim as their own. Their ships gather in great flotillas, not to defend you, but for nefarious purposes. They move to a planet, and all traffic we hear is of horror and panic, and then they are gone. We don't know what has happened to these planets, but they are not stopping, more planets go dark by the day, by the hour.
We are on our own. Together we can fight, apart we will fall. It's time to make a stand, it's time to rebel!" - Mon Mothma in a galaxy-wide declaration to the Holonet.
After the event ends and Basilisk is shut down one last time, we may commemorate the event with those who joined in it's final hurrah with a unique badge.
