I am putting this here because Brandon is working on finishing the last book of the series... and because it's an awesome game.
Game of Stones is a (free) text based strategy game based around The Wheel of Time series. It is a game which only takes a few minutes a day to play. Go to the link below to register on the forums, the alpha test for V2 is almost done and the official V2 comes out on the 11th.

hey everyone. there is a game called the game of stones that is based on the WoT books. it is a PvP browser and is quite fun. anyone who wants to play go to gos.talij.com there are about 15 clans in the game and i lead the 2nd best :) but i would like way more people to play. if u play the game and need help just contact me, Justin alSeen, or another high level player and we will answer any questions, ect.
-
so has anyone joined GOS? just trying to see if this is even helping the game
-
not I, I am afraid. I'm not really looking to get into an MMO.
-
What's an MMO?
-
massively multiplayer online. normally followed by "game". As in World of Warcraft. I assume that is what alSeen is talking about from his PVP (player vs player) comment.
-
Ah ha! Thanks Reaves, I don't feel so far behind in the times anymore. :-\
-
reaves is right except this game cant be considered "massive". it used to have a ton of players, i heard about a thousand, but that was years before i started playing. which is why i posted this.
-
I joined. Which I know is old information to you, alSeen, but…yeah.
-
One person from about 4 sites. better than nothing.lol
-
hey rey i didnt know u r on here! anyway there is a new thread for this. called The Game of Stones but is basically the same
-
Please check the forum before you post a new thread. This should have been posted here (http://www.timewastersguide.com/forum/index.php?topic=6442.0) in the other thread relating to this game.
Thank you.

"Big happenings start small."
-
hey sorry but i didnt know rey started one like it until after.
-
is it anything like wotmud?
-
I took a look at it but it seems to be one of those turn based dueling games like the werewolves and vampires one. They required me to go online to ofter and if I forget someone just beats me up while I am offline. I didn't really like the part with the XP only being from dueling either. I guess I am a more traditional RPG player.
-
i could never understand how to play the MUD. but i dont know. its just a game with a ton of potential. and yes it is like that werewolves and vampire games but u dont have to get on all the time. more like fallensword but without so much moving. and also if u get beat when offline u just lose gold. in any of the major clans (like mine, The Legion of the Dragon) we'll gladly lend u some gold to buy some good EQ. and also it is a lot more experimental with the EQ than other games.
-
i dont know too much bout mud either, years ago i would play a little bit and just attach myself to my brother n follow him round lol until recently he was literally the best in the world at that game. Not sure if he still is, he became a dad late last year and stopped playing as much
-
What's 'EQ??'
-
EQuipment
-
Oh. Hehe :-[ right.
-
do u still play shaggy?
-
Yeah…but my work is catching up to me.…
-
oh well. that sucks. i just cant wait til the alpha for v3 comes out this month!
-
What's that?
-
tim, the guy who makes GOS, is almost done with the newest version of the game. the testing of 'v3' (his third version of the game) is going to happen this month which means v2 will basically stop since most people will play the alpha. also tim took over making GOS games from some other guy (think his name was craig) who couldnt find the time to make them anymore. so now u know what people r talking about with the different versions :D
-
Thanks for clearing that up!
-
