Although a very generous act which reenforced the faith in the game for many players, there were a number of incidents in which players left the game altogether, unable to cope with the loss of their hard work. After a period of around two weeks, the [[Home Server]] and the Wild [[Wild Serverserver]] s were resurrected, bringing a new map with much less water and a more mountanous mountainous landscape. [[User:Notch|Notch]] returned briefly to ensure all went smoothly. The restart brought in many new bugfixesbug fixes, and many older players returned to view what [[Wurm ]] had become.
