Okay, so I'm still unsure as to who receives the update mails on our mailing list and who doesn't, so I thought I'd post here as well just in case. :3
Happy New Year, Syrunnians! Chi here, your ball of stress admin, with a (fairly hefty) update for you lovely peoples!
First of all, a huge welcome back to Ikiriz, and a warm welcome to our new members: Ouzar, Zakas and Vincent! I hope you found everything in the welcome mail to be helpful and informative, and if you do have any other questions or queries, don't hesitate to PM a staff member, write in the CBox or bring it up in our Support Board.
Now onto contests! The winners of our December Caption Contest have been posted in our sparkly new Winners' Thread. I couldn't settle on a first place, so since it's Christmas I decided to cheat a bit. Congratulations to Ink AND Ikiriz for joint first, Kamui for second and Niva for third place respectively. Please PM Phoenix (my admin account) and tell me where you'd like your winnings to be put. :3 With the closure of one contest, another has been opened, so if you're interested please take a gander at our January Caption Contest! As well as that, the Post-a-Day challenge is still ongoing, so thank you everyone who is logging in and posting. It's really making a difference, and I can't thank you all enough.
With that out of the way, onto business! You may have noticed that Syrunn has undergone some pretty dramatic changes over the last few days, the biggest of which being the skin. I'd like to thank our graphics wizard Niva for making it in a miraculous two days! It looks fantastic. However, as some of you may already know, Proboards v5 is coming out pretty soon, so our skin may be wiped for a short while. So if the forum looks plain, don't panic! Please see here for more details. Along with the skin, we also have some new Advertisements available, so if anyone feels charitable enough to spread the word about us, please feel free.
As well as this, we have reorganised our back story (which you can now see in the plot box of the new skin), and have given our Essential Information section a rather large revamp. The old back story has now become Syrunn's history, and we have added a spiffy guild index! That's right, guilds have come to Syrunn. :3 If you're interested in joining one, please take a look and see what's on offer. As a final update, there's also some new stock available in the Syria Shoppe, for those who have too much money to spend. But a quick note on all of these changes: I'd just like to point out that they are ongoing - we have more guilds to add, more changes to make and more things to plan, so keep your eyes peeled and bear with us while we smooth out the creases.
And what's this? A Seasonal Plot, you say! My, Syrunn, you really have got a lot going on for January! Please feel free to check out the plot and, of course, participate if it tickles your fancy. (:
Before finishing, I'd like to say a truly humongous thankyou to all of the staff who have worked so hard to help us get this far - Kamui, Ink, and Niva, you are amazaballs!
Happy January, everyone!
Regards,
Chi and the rest of the Syrunn Staff.
