If you've dug very deep into the Wizard101 UK community (careful, you might hit some AMAZING on the way down), then you probably know the Community Manager, Emy Anemsalok! After a couple of tweets today, I think we all agree that she's, as she says, "useful, (apart, ofc from awesome) sometimes", except we might have to transition to more descriptive words like invaluable, and super-amazing.
Anyway, she set up some cool polls on the UK Boards asking about the official fansites. Regardless of the original intent, these polls are super helpful to us fansite owners. We check the polls (open until July 8) to see what areas the community thinks we're doing best in, and the areas that we aren't doing so well in. Then, we check up on those areas and add to them, all for the betterment of the community.
If you're a registered UK user, you can follow this link... http://board.wizard101.co.uk/board3-wizard101-announcements/board105-wizard101-fansites/3268-already-existing-fansites-poll/ ...and vote on the polls. Pick honestly, because honest answers honestly help all of the fansite owners!
Regardless of the polls, however, I can't wait for you all to see what I've got for you with my new design and content... but that's a little ways away.
One thing that I'd like to share with the UK wizards is a service that isn't quite as prominent in the UK as it should be. That service is the United Kingdom version of Mercenaries for Hire! Despite any impressions you get from the name, the service is free and began in 2009 on Wizard101 Central.
The Mercenaries for Hire US is quite a large group, but the UK version has about four wizards. Let me be the first to tell you, however, that these are some of the most precise and dedicated wizards that their are. They have many battles already thought out in round-by-round strategies.
The best part is that you can quickly contact them through Wizard101 Central, Diary of a Wizard, or the Wizard101 UK Boards. They also have an information website with links to these areas at http://www.themercs4hire.com/. The page specifically for the UK is here: http://www.themercs4hire.com/search/label/M4HUK
I'm sure that almost anyone who has tried this service will recommend it to you. Finally... free assistance that will help you with overkill to your heart's desire! Check them out!
That's all I've got for today, but remember that the Legends of the Spiral Summer's Super Party is coming tomorrow (!!) and there are going to be some great contests and prizes! (http://www.legendsofthespiral.co.uk/index.php?page=17&partyid=128)
Thanks for reading, and see you in the Spiral!
Nice post! :D
