    Nay, Mystra just went dormant during 4th edition. Mystra is magic given consciousness and the Weave is her Order. Without "Mystra," magic has no consciousness. The only way to destroy her permanently is to destroy all of magic, and since magic was originally a part of Selûne and Shar, I doubt they'd let that happen. Hence why Shar wanted her "Shadoweave" back. Anyway, with the dawn of 5th Edition, Mystra was able to reincarnate herself once again with the help of her Chosens and remove all remaining traces of the Spellplague upon Toril, reasserting herself as supreme deity over all Magic and Time once again.

    Or in RL-speak, it went something like this.

    Ed Greenwood and other FR writers: These 4e changes to the Realms are stupid, the fans will hate them.

    Wizards of the Coast: Fourth Edition is going to revolutionize the game! We're updating the Realms to match it!

    Ed: Don't do it. They're gonna hate it, we're warning you!

    Wizards: Did it!

    Fans: WTF did you morons do to D&D and the Realms?!? WE HATE THIS!

    Ed: Told you. C'mon guys, let's figure out a way to fix all the stupid Wizards pulled...

    Typical. Social media before official game forums. Makes perfect sense.

    Irritating as it is (especially for those of us who don't use social media), most people are logged in to Facebook/Twitter all the time and check it before they'll ever check a game forum. You'd think they could post here first and just link it on social media though....

    Bummer. And, to correct a former message, the people at Cryptic should NOT be off work today - tomorrow is the holiday. :)

    Pretty much. The lore and events of the realms are back in the hands of Ed, Salvatore, and other notable authors. All is well one again, the Third Sundering has been told and come to pass. Behold, the Realms we do adore.

    There's also a post on Facebook saying they're aware of the problems... wonder how long it will take them to figure things out

    If it's like any company, they have different people managing social media and the official forums.

    And the time between the tweet and the official post was about 4 minutes.:rolleyes:

    Well, I needed to quit procrastinating on a research project and do some housecleaning anyway. I guess this is a good reason to actually do something productive and play later.

    Also I'm pretty sure it's not a good idea to link to a group's webpage that sells DDoS attack software, but I dunno the forum rules on that as well as I should....
