Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Hey Clashites,
This is a late into the New Year, but better late than never right?
First things first, let's welcome everybody into the New Year. We've survived a few months of stagnation due to school, work and just life getting in the way. We survived the end of the world and we are all (for the most part) still here and finally we've lived through the holiday rush and a very sick admin who found it impossible to do even the simplest of everyday tasks (please forgive me). So in light of the New Year we are going to run a well overdue Activity Check that will let us know if you made it into 2013 with us. For those who straggled behind or decided to pack up their backs and leave we wave farewell and hope that despite the losses our community begins to grow.
Speaking of community I've got to thank all of you for your continued dedication and enthusiasm despite my absence, negligence, ignorance, and just lack of being an administrator in any shape or form. Seriously guys, you are all wonderful. It bugged me every single day that I was not able to come online or even show my face because I knew that the more I was absent the more likely everyone was going to up and leave. But despite my very bad behavior I'm happy to see many of you still remain loyal to Clash of the Finest and have done what you can to maintain its relevancy.
Let's try to make it to 2015 because that's when that Justice League movie comes out and EVERYONE's going to want to roleplay then. Ha ha.
Tangent aside, please make sure to visit the Activity Check Center to ensure the safety, protection and maintenance of your characters. And so I can also figure out how to integrate an awesome plot for all our available characters.
On the topic of plot, the current Celliobyte has in a sense stagnated and has reached a sort of lull due to lack of well myself not really pushing it and everyone not really posting upon it.
So for the time being, my decision is to put a pause on the plot or rather, lessen the relevancy of the celliobyte and leave room for everyone to continue with the plots they are undergoing. Clash of the Finest is in a sense following the trails of the New 52 universe where things are still being formed and everyone's character is in development and I think we've done a fine job with that so far. It isn't until I know what characters we have that I can come up with a decent board wide plot that will better integrate everybody.
On that topic, I am also looking to recreate my staff team. For now the recognized staff is myself and Wonder Woman. I'm looking to hire about two or three more people into the higher ranks to help me run the board. To be more specific, I would want a few individuals who are innovative and willing to put the time and effort into plot thinking and overall working to create a better board. I'd like a co-administrator (That might be asking for too much so I might actually need someone to fill that role), a story writer, and someone's who really good at throwing ideas and not afraid to ask questions and CHALLENGE MY AUTHORITY!!!
If you think yourself fit for the position, just send me a PM telling me why you want to join the staff team and I'll put your into consideration.
Finally, I have a butt load of places to post, a butt load of remodeling and updating to do and just a butt load of responsibilities on this board that I have let sit aside for too long. So if there is anything I need to do, that I need to update, or anywhere I need to post please, PLEASE feel free to PM me because I probably forgot where I'm needed (ah ha ha). I won't feel bothered or nagged, JUST DO IT.
This concludes my apologetic letter, announcement and welcoming into the New Year!
