Hello world!
This is it ... this is the end.
Correction; it has been brought to my attention that this is in fact not the end, but the OZD Update. Oops. Well, mistakes do happen. Or, more accurately, events occur that, if they transpired due to a mere mortal, would be regarded as a mistake - but if it's Iain leading said events, they are no longer mistaken, but the universe itself must adapt such that Iain is in fact correct.
Naturally following on from this is our update. Yes. Firstly, we must say goodbye to JP, who has decided to step down from the OZD after many months of service, due to his other OTF committments. Thank you for all that you have done in your time in the OZD, JP! (Yes, I could use more acronyms there, if I tried!)
Brady has this month devised a cunning action plan for the OZD! Top of the list is complete and total domination of OTF, and then the world. ... ahh, that is to say, based on the fact that I am being glared at, please forget that I divulged this plan. The other parts of the plan featured projects such as improving the avatar set in the ST chatrooms, shaking things up a little with themed weekends (more info to follow - watch this space!), and a possible project in collaboration with the Notwerk (once again, watch this space. You know the drill!).
With my creating the v2 armory, we also have some plans here, to spruce it up a little. Zildjian has been working on images for the armory - thanks, Zild! We have a solid concept for the ST themed armory, which will go live Real Soon Now.
I have also been stirring up controversy with the apparently-innocuous Friends list trial. It seems to have been regarded widely as a move to destabilise Mih (Man in Hat). I deny any and all allegations, as I was in fact in Bermuda at the time in question.
Finally, I'd like to extend my congratulations to Kayana and Raine. These two Agents have repeatedly gone beyond the call of duty in the OZD, and have as such earned the title of "Special Agent" for their hard work. Congratulations!
Cheers!
