Yay! It's finally here! Desert Warriors first birthday!
I can't beleive that this time last year, I was just opening the site, worried that it would die within it's first weeks. I remember making it my goal that I would see it through it's first year, and for a long time, I honestly thought it wouldn't make it. But, WOW! I can't beleive that was a year ago!
I have a lot of people I'd like to thank. First off, my moderators:
Abt2700 - Thank you for staying with the site, even when there were only the two of us. You were such a help, and I'm sorry for all the whining and whinging that you had to listen to. (*Guilty Laugh*) If you had of left, then I would have abandonded the site and it never would have made it here today. Thanks so much!!
Little_Maybelline - Newest of our moderators, I am very glad that I chose to make you one! You have been such a help recently, helping me catch up when I've been away or had viruses and stuff. I don't know what I would've done without you! I know, should I be gone for a long period of time, I can always count on you to keep track of things
Thank you, both of you, for being the greatest moderators in the world!
And of course, I would like to thank each and every one of my members, even the ones who had to leave, for being a part of the site and keeping it alive
If you guys had never joined, the site would have died ages back.
Anyway, enough of the boring speaches!
I was thinking to celebrate, I would hold a competition. The prize is the creation of your own mob, and thus the ninth mob of the desert! All you have to do, is write a reasonable sized paragraph about the mob's personality, and a reasonable sized paragraph about your FIRST meerkat (You can have others, but I only want one in the entry) in the mob. Whoever creates the most interesting mob wins! The rules are simple:
1. DO NOT post your entry in public. I will post all entrys at the end for everyone to read, and if you wish to tell others the name of your meerkats/mob then that is fine. Anyone who posts theirs public will not be included.
2. One post per player. Please don't do a joint mob thing, cause that would kinda complicate things.
3. Please no unnecesary violence.
4. All normal site rules still apply.
Anyone can enter. I was gonna ask the moderators to help me judge, but I decided that would be unfair cause they wouldn't be allowed to participate. So I have asked my brother (who is not a member of this site) to act as a guest judge, lol. I will be giving him each of the entries, and he will tell me which one he likes best, and they will be the winner. (I thought this was fairest cause he doesn't know any of you, he won't be able to pick his friend. He won't even be getting your names, just Entry One, Entry Two, so on and so forth.)
I haven't got time now, but later I will post two examples for you two read.
Anyway, have fun!
