Sikslik7 Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 It is time for another update on what is going on in the forums during the next month and beyond. I felt the need not just to promote specific events or contests, but other things going on throughout the forums so you can participate while they are still happening. So this month, September of 2014, we have a good deal of things coming your way, prepare yourselves for the Wall: First up this month, The Events Team has a new color, and a new member in case you haven't noticed. You shall respect our authority! And something entirely new, our Monthly Short Story Contest: Every month members are tasked with writing a short story based on the prompts given in a master thread. By the end of the month all participating must create their own story and create a thread following the guidelines set up on the master threads. Get out your typewriter, stick, and crayon and get writing! A Monthly Award, that's right, an Award! Get your sarcastic comments loading, because they might just come in handy, when you try to out wit, or out humor the rest of the forum in the monthly caption contest. You might just make someone's day, find something to make your day, or win an award for being the best this month! Did I mention there was an award? Another Award, but this one is new!: You enjoy the forums right? Spending hours every day browsing the dark reaches of the forum's corners, only to find a brilliant post, that died over two years ago? Maybe you find a great idea that is recent but no one else commented on it. There are discussions out there, great ideas by members that die because they are not fed, not discussed as much as they deserve. You all enjoy having your posts, ideas, and creative works shared, so go out a find other works that need to be shared. Oh yeah, if you do it, you get an award.... Free Rice Still going on: By participating in the United Nations Freerice program, the community can make another positive impact in the real world. To join just follow the links and sign up at Freerice.com and join our group. For every 20,000 grains you generate under the forum group, you get an award. Feel good about giving the essentials to people, while receiving an electronic award for your good deeds! Staff VS Members Playdate Poll If you want to kill the staff, or die trying, on a game of your preference, partake in the poll so we can choose a good date, time, and game so that as many people can participate as possible. Good luck, we have GSD. Weekly Community Poll: You guys know how this works, vote and argue stuff about Halo, both in the past, present, and future. Your comments might be highlighted in the next poll! And way out there, but not that far in the future: Total Mayh3m, or whatever he decides his name will be by the event, will be hosting an opening day Master Chief Collection Playdate on November 11th. You can expect a variety of gametypes, maps and even different Halo games! Hop on your Xbox Ones and bring your Halo skills, this ones going to be Massive. Community Teleforge: Join other members in forging community made maps, piece by piece. More members are always appreciated, no matter the forging skills or ideas. Check out the master thread for more details. Member Events: These are events hosted by members that could use highlighting to increase attendance and participation all around. If you create a event, please feel free to pm me with a link to it so I can add it, pending a proper grammatical and event management combing of the material. Sorry guys, no descriptions, otherwise this would be bigger than it already is! As always, a friendly remember: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/13184-custom-game-night-forum/ Blake BellaMoMa's MoMmy Event: On a side note, where did the Full, across the top MoM banner go? The one used in the MoM announcement threads. Edward Kenway's GTA V Event: Self Destruct's Gears of War Fiesta Other Important Things: But Sikslik7, what else could there be? More, and lot's of it. The podcast is restarting, the Youtube channel is expanding, so check those for more news and updates from your lovely Staff. Things are in the works to expand forum contests and events, to get more members involved, draw more members to the site, and make the forums a much more enjoyable place to be and participate in. Be a part of it all, go to events, make better posts, you know the drill. Expect More, Expect Better, Expect Fun. That's all folks! Drop a Like and comment the thread to oblivion. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
