Well lookie here! So, we've got some color changes happening on SWU. Allow me to start with the blue. Everyone, please welcome Pembleton to NGT. He's been super helpful and friendly with reviews and we're glad to have him around. Now, Pembleton is replacing Neology who has been bumped up to a member of the Moderators. She's been diligent and consistent as an NGT member and we're very happy to add her to the Green Team. Lastly, please welcome Dire Wolf BACK to the Mod team. He will be primarily focusing on the Tech section, but feel free to ask him questions about character apps as well. He's got the experience and we are just tickled to have him back! Did I say lastly? Cuz what I meant is that there's two more. It's lonely at the top, and I miss having a fellow Red Shirt to hash things out with. So, by no merit of their own and entirely because I felt like it because they're some wicked dedicated members of SWU who have been around for ages and know what's what, please join me in welcoming Dutch and Rugs to the Admin Club! I hope you've enjoyed today's edition of the Site Staff Shuffle! Stay classy SWU! Love and Memories ~Meira

Hear ye, hear ye! *tolls bell* Well it happens to the best of us, but life has decided to devour Squee whole. With her semester starting for Uni too, she is just unable to put as much time into SWU as she'd like. So after many years of devoted service to our beloved site, Squee is gonna retire for a bit to take her purple. She's expressed desire to return again if needed someday, so you may see her take the green again! If you happen to catch this busy lil' lady on the net somewhere, be sure to thank her for everything! And now her watch has ended *_* - Dutch

Here we are again! Just as the wonderful Squee needed to step down due to life, on the flip side of that coin, Moonfire's life is giving her enough time to step back into her green pants! Ya'll know and love her, so join me in welcoming Moonfire back to the ranks. - Dutch

Well considering it is Hanukkah, yesterday was Festivus and tomorrow is Christmas we feel it's fair to say... Cause let's face it, what's more dark side than gambling with dreidels, performing feats of strength, or mugging someone for the perfect black friday gift? - Dutch

My dear SWUbians, I am happy to inform you that my fellow admins and I are putting together another podcast for you auditory enjoyment. We've got a few things we would like to cover, with the new application format being a big part. But, as always, we would very much like to know what you want us to discuss! So please, head on over to the SWUcast feedback and suggestions thread (link below) and give us some ideas! We are hoping to record this weekend, or early/mid January, so don't be shy! In addition, I thought it might be fun to open up our lives to you all a bit more. If any of you are redditors, you will be familiar with the AMAs they do. For those who aren't in the loop, AMA stands for "Ask Me Anything". Celebrities, writers, scientists, and people with interesting lives have done these question and answer sessions on reddit.com and the results have run the gamut from insightful to bizarre. Now, seeing as how we are a PG-13 site, I'll have to scale is down to the AMAA level (Ask Me Almost Anything). So, if you would love to know what Rugs likes to eat for dinner, or how Dutch keeps his mustache so pristine, now is your chance! You can submit your questions to the SWUcast thread, or PM them to any of us admins. But get them in fast, or they might not make the cut! Click for SWUcast Feedback/Suggestion ThreadLove and Memories, Meira

MOAR ANNOUNCEMENTS!! Please note that the character application sections have been updated to the new application templates. If you have a pending character application that was posted before these templates were put up, you do not need to change your app unless you want to. We will honor the old application. For those that have approved characters, you may change to the new template if you like. Please contact a staff member so that they can help you through this process. All new applications must be submitted using the new template. New creation tips pages will be coming to you soon, so keep an eye out for those! In the mean time, any staff member will be more than willing to assist you with any questions you might have. It's a new year and a new start for SWU, here's to more good times! Love and Memories, Meira

Good news everyone! The Official Application Update example thread has been posted! Members across the board are encouraged to update their characters to the new format and link to become part of the examples. Keep in mind you'll need to move said character to pending during your update, and will need Moderator approval in order to apply the update. Feel free to tug at NGT's and Mods alike to take a look at your update once you've completed it! We will be making an active effort to approve these updates as rapidly as possible, but will only look once the app has been wholly updated. Us staffers of SWU appreciate your enthusiasm and encouragement in making SWU a friendlier, more accessible roleplay site to all Without further ado, the examples thread: swrponline2.proboards.com/thread/20340/official-application-update-examples-thread?page=1&scrollTo=143637Come take a look, staffers and veteran members alike are expected to post their updates soon!

Oh and another mini-announcement! Go take a look at SWU's first ever Wall of Fame, where those who have stood in the fires of staffing are forever memorialized and remembered for their valiant deeds. Located right below the current staff roster, these are the men and women who have kept SWU on the net for years. As well as being legends of SWU, the Honored Veterans are as much advisers and SWU sages as they are basic members. If one happens to comment on something you're thinking of creating, it's more wise than not to listen to these folks. Never hurts to give them a thumbs up for all the hard work they've done - Dutch
