As we bring our Starlight Celebration to a close, we'd like to thank everyone for putting in their best efforts. There were 149 people who reached the 100 family milestone, and 91 who reached 200 families! Congratulations to everyone for reaching those goals. The leader (and it was close) was Xenofire, with 265 families. That is no joke, and a great deal of work, so my hat's off to him. You have my admiration. For the future, a gimped reward system will be running. Any weaponskills will be counted against families year round, and you will be able to obtain the original Excalipoor during any time from a Festive Moogle when an event is not currently running. However, you will only be able to collect rewards during the Starlight Celebration. We'll be looking forward to seeing you next year!

Congratulations Xenofire for being the first to reach 100 families, with Dasuna being a close second! Sakiro & Central have also hit this milestone. To aid on their quest for 200, here are a list of all the families currently accessible.

Greetings, kupo! It is I, Magical Moogle, wishing you the happiest of holidays! We will be beginning our Starlight Celebration right now! Unfortunately the festive moogles have been so busy putting up decorations, they haven't had time to hand out their starlight cards. As a result, they would be very appreciative of you, the adventurer, passing the cards out for the festive moogles. You can find a festive moogle in Port Bastok, Windurst Walls, Port San'doria, and even Jueno! Once you've finished handing out cards, check back with your Festive Moogle for something special! Best wishes!

This was mostly a security/crash maintenance, the content isn't ready yet But Soon!™ Also fixed some bugs in pup where you could lose your attachments.

The USA turns 244 years old on July 4th, 2020, and what a crazy 244 years it's been. While 2020 has been a bit of a strange year so far with so much going on, rest assured that Nasomi will be here for you. If you're stressed, overworked, underworked, or unemployed, Nasomi will be here. Stay in, stay safe, if you have to go out, wear a mask/gloves, avoid social situations. It's not good out there, what better reason to stay in and play some FFXI. To encourage this, we're turning on exp rings until Sunday, July 5th, at midnight. Go out and get your exp on!

Gr-r-r-eetings, kupo! It is I, Magical Moogle Henry, and this year I have been put in charge of our Eggstravaganza by the MEC(Moogle Event Committee)! As a result, much effort has been put into hiding eggs throughout Vana'diel. The eggs have been hidden in North Gustaberg, West Sarutabaruta, and East Ronfaure. Each egg has a special letter inscribed on it. Collect eggs with certain combinations and turn them in to your Festive Moogles located in Port Bastok, Windurst Walls, and Port San'dOria for eggcelent rewards! The combinations are as follows: • First 3 - The first 3 letters of your name • Strait 8 - Any 8 consecutive letters • 7 of a kind - Any 7 eggs with the same letter So get out there and get your egg on, or you'll end up with yolk on your face!

Hello all. I hope you are well. Stay safe, practice social distancing, and be healthy, try not to lick your mailman. I have been getting an increasing number of requests for people that forgot their password, login, character information etc. I am doing my best to assist these people, along with the many other people who have various issues. Please be patient, I am working hard to get to all of your issues. On average I get 20-30 NEW messages a day. Some take 10 minutes, some take 2 hours. If you do the math, that means virtually all of my time is consumed by that alone. So please, if you think your issue may be resolved without my assistance, hop into naschat and ask your question directly in chat. An answer may not come immediately, so please hang around for a bit or check back. If you want to know how you can help, join naschat, keep it on a separate monitor or in the background. Try and answer newcomer questions or direct them to who may be able to. People come in at all hours looking for help, it would be fantastic if someone was there to help them out. If you need my assistance, the only way is naschat, via private message, double clicking my name or /msg nasomi. But please, only do this as a last recourse after you try and find a solution yourself first. We are a community of 10,000 players, I do my best but it can be days or potentially weeks for a response. Issues are handled on a first come, first serve. If you are not present when I message you, your window will not be closed so if you come back you will retain your spot in line. If you close your window, it stays open my end. So try and stop by periodically if you can't leave the window open. Still cranking on T1 znm's, it's gonna be great, you're gonna love it. We're working on more network optimizations as well. Few other things are in the works as well. If you want things faster, hang out in naschat and help folks with simple issues. That's pretty much it for now. Stay safe out there. Good luck. Play fair.

G-G-G-greetings A-A-adventurers! We had a crazy week and before we knew it, Valentines day had come and gone! But fret not, we will carry on as though we had not forgotten at all. Everyone from lovers to lonely can unite in Vana'diel for our Valentines Celebration! To help us all you have to do is visit a festive moogle in Port Bastok, Windurst Walls, or Port San'dOria. There you will receive two pieces of chocolate. But one of them must be exchanged with someone elses chocolate to receive a matching pair. There are people throughout the starting cities waiting for those pair who can make them become one. Hand them over and they will give you back the chocolate melted back together. From there, bring the completed piece back to one of the festive moogles for your reward! For those wishing to step it up a notch... We need some chocolate delivered to Lower Jeuno, as well as Tavnazian Safehold. Now we're not saying to run out and get yourself killed... But if you do, we can assure you the reward will be worth your while!

Betting is now open for the Superbowl LIV between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs! No spread, win/lose, talk to Marshal or Afdeen in Upper Jeuno to make a wager. Your total bet will be a percentage of the total for that team. That is the percentage that you can win if your team wins of the other teams total bets, less 10% handling fee. Example 1: You bet 10,000 gil on 49ers. 49ers total bets total 500,000 gil. Chiefs total bets totals 800,000 gil. 49ers win. Your bet was 2% of the total, which means you are eligible for 2% of the Chief's total bets of 800,000 gil, 16,000 gil, less 10% handling fee, plus your original 10,000 gil bet, totaling 24,400 gil. Congratulations! Example 2: You bet 10,000 gil on 49ers. 49ers total bets total 500,000 gil. Chiefs total bets totals 800,000 gil. 49ers lose. You get nothing and are sad. There will be periodic announcements regarding how much gil has been bet on each side. All betting will close prior to the coin toss. Winnings will be eligible for pickup roughly one hour after the game is over, and will be eligible to be picked up until February 8th, 2020 at midnight EST. There will NOT be any exceptions. Good luck, and happy betting!

We’re rolling out a new launcher that will connect to different servers around the world! We have servers in NYC, Las Vegas, Luxembourg, and looking to add either Singapore, Hong Kong, or Tokyo. This new launcher will ping each of the servers and automatically select the server with lowest ping, allowing users worldwide to experience similar latencies regardless of where you are in the world. The new launcher can be found here: https://na.nasomi.com/software/ashita.zip The launcher is under 5mb. This launcher is considered beta, not the final version. Improvements and new versions will be posted here. Post bugs that you find in naschat. Instructions: unzip and go!

We wanted to take a few minutes to lay out the plans for the ZNM system we have planned. This information is subject to change between now and the final release. ZNM's will be released in tiers. There will be an NPC in whitegate selling pop items for 100k each. There will be 3 pop items depending on the path you want to take. Each T1 will have a high chance to drop a trophy item and a low chance to drop a pop item. You'll need 3 trophy items or 1 pop item to pop an associated T2 ZNM. The same will go for T2, T3, T4, and PW. When T4 trophy/pop items drop, a one time use KI will also be added to all members of the fight that will allow them to port to the island to fight the T4's. All drops will be removed from the server when their corresponding tier goes live. So when T1 ZNM's go live, all existing T1 loot will be removed. The T4 pop items will also be removed from ToAU Kings when T1 launches. We are working on balancing and tuning the mechanics so the fights will be retail accurate. Currently we're half way through T1 ZNM's, so please look forward to seeing them soon!

In today's maintenance... BLU LB5 BLU Bug fixes Light spirit crash fixed PUP AF PUP Bug fixes Added Blazing Pepper to Let Sleeping Dogs Lie TOAU Kings can drop a T4 znm POP item T4 ZNM's have been added for a special sneak preview T1-T3 ZNM's are otwwwwwwwwww
