Original thread
. It was misspelled "Wizardly Online".
The permadeath works this way: Basically, gamers donate to revive themselves, and a poor donation runs the risk of failure. If they are two failures, the character is gone, "Lost" and unplayable.
(Fortunately, the experience remains on the player's Soul aka account, so the next character has a slightly easier start.)

Looks interesting. Looking forward to trying this out when I get a chance this weekend, I've always been a fan of roguelikes and such.

I haven't started playing, don't know what to make of it. Holy shit! Wizardry!! was my first thought.
Things that concern me? The races and classes. Only cleric, fighter, mage, and thief at the moment, the generic but important staples. Races are equally generic; humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes, and Cutesy Tiny Japanese Things. Where are mooks or draconians? Psionics and samurai? Hoping these things are planned.
Also worrying: permadeath.
We'll see how it goes.
