Hello all welcome to the real Wrapup where I don't intend to disappoint you with entries that are months old. But it may happen even without them:
 
Primary Announcement: Did everyone have fun yesterday?
 
 

COMMUNITY EVENTS

Edward's Trinity Events

Edward Kenway's first Event of the Trinity will be April 6th and it will be played on Mass Effect 3. Click above for information on the other two Events.

 

Meet Your Maker Community Event Weekend

The Meet Your Maker Infinity Slayer Forge Contest was quite possibly the largest Forge Contest in the Halo Community. Brought to you by 343industries.org and The Halo Forge Epidemic, it drew in over 100 submissions judged by a group of members from the community including THE Absolute Dog, THE Spades N AZ, THE WARHOLIC, and THE Psychoduck. I'm talking big names. And even bigger names when it came to participants. Winners included Squally DaBeanz, The Fated Fire, Redemption1272, PA1NTS, and Xinshu. It wasn't quite as big the second time around but it was still up there since participants were allowed two submissions each. If you don't know these names above then wait until you see their work. Find winning maps of the previous MYM Contests here and here. RSVP to the Meet Your Maker Community Event Weekend today. With special guest Drizzy_Dan of course.

 

Ruby and Yang's Community Event

On April 19th, get a good game going with the community in an unofficial Event hosted by Yang Xiao Long and Ruby Rose. The Slash Em and Smash Em Event is sure to be a good time. (Directly taken from the Community Event Calendar Thread.) Find the date and times by clicking above.

 

Something's Fishy...

I decided to go with this image instead of the one I put in the Calendar thread because I mean look at it. Its description is in the picture. And this was also a great episode. "What are you gonna do with that!?" "Something that should've been done a long time ago." *Fixes squeaky bolt.*

Right so the Event by Fishy will be on Halo Wars as I'm sure you couldn't tell from anything I've just said above and there is truly something Fishy going on with it. Find the date and time by visiting the Event thread and RSVP. 

 

Everyone who attends Community Events gets the Gamer Award: participate.png

Featured Map

Fishy definitely saw this one coming. This is Dignitas by Zaelkyria, whom I've featured before in the Featured Map Subsection of the Wrapup for their Covenant Cruiser. This isn't a recreation of any sort, this is an original design with Forerunner influence. Find more astonishing pictures of Dignitas in Zaelkyria's Submission Thread.

This week's real Hot Topic is a unique one by Promotions and Events Staff, D-38 Boss. Boss wrote play-by-plays of himself playing XCOM: Enemy Within and replaced the characters of the game with member from here on the forum. It's hilarious and easy to read.
 
 
MEMBER OF THE MONTH

And now for a proper congratulations to our newest MoM, Unease P34nut! Congrats P34nut and thanks for dealing with the anxiety of not knowing whether you were really the MoM or not this month! Your new profile pic is great by the way! Somebody think of a new peanut pun for me (Spark).
 
 
 
Thank you for giving this one a chance after reading yesterday's, guys. Did I miss anything? Scroll back up and read it all over again just to make sure.

Sweet, I'm in the wrap up twice again! I honestly thought that forge map was featured already. Lol. Anyways, looking forward to next weeks wrap up already. I'm going to see if I can foresee the next forge map. Maybe...
