A new reign begins on the GW Amp site today. A new herald of the Site Manager title has been chosen and his name is Wyat_Hawke.
For those unaware, outstanding staffer/member Kanna recently stepped down as Site Manager for the site. In his departure, a new SM was sought to fill in the void. Kanna will be missed as staffer but I am pretty sure he isn't completely leaving the site. I would like to be one of the first to thank him for his time and effort he placed into the site on a daily basis. Also please give congratulations to Wyat in his new position for the site.
With Wyat taking over as SM, we are considering opening up to take on new staffers. Stay tuned for news on seeking out site assistance. If anyone has any questions feel free to contact Wyat or myself.
Stay tuned to Gameamp.com for more news on Guild Wars.

Richard Garriott's being shot too the moon though
Starr Long addresses various issues with and around Tabula Rasa's less than stellar reception.
As Videogamer reported NCSoft admits disappointment with Tabula Rasa and this led to rumors of massively Layoffs at Destination Games (DG).
Starr almost debunks this by explaining this is the normal downsizing of the team at the end of a project. Regardless the column can't negate the feeling it's damage control, but it might be good news for Tabula Rasa's stalwart fan base.
Especially for PVP Players it seems, looking at today's Feedback Friday and the fact that Richard Garriott's Scheduled Spaceflight hasn't been turned into a one-way ticket yet.

| QUOTE | | "Online game giant NCsoft is to restructure its U.S. game studio in Austin, Texas, which has inflicted a massive loss to the parent company by failing in a six-year blockbuster project." |
Thus starts the rather cold article in the Korean Times, don't worry it's in English. The studio is Richard Garriott's and the blockbuster to be was Tabula Rasa.
It seems Tabula Rasa so far "only" made 5 billion won ($5.3 million) which is nu cat-pee, unless you compare it to the development cost of 100 billion won ($106 million). Ouch!
So now NCSoft is going to restructure the Studio.
Lets hope for the TR fans sticking with this game that this isn't the start of a slide like the one made by that other over-budgeted game released unfinished and too early during 2007. By which I refer to Vanguard, Saga of drama, né Heroes, which is now being kept on life-support by a skeleton crew and an intern.

April Burba, Tabula Rasa Community Manager (who some might remember from her CoH days) sketches in some details on Tabula Rasa's future in 2008 with Ten Ton Hammer.
She talks about introducing End Game content, "extracting" a lot of Bugs and how the City of Heroes community has silliness amped up to 11...
We'll be seeing a CoX-like update sequence it seems, along with smaller, regular content updates. Extra features considered / planned contain such things as auction house, Personal Armor Units, Player/Dev meet ups, Word of Mouth advertisement and Meaning to the Ethical Parables system.

Why, you ask? Starr explains:

Ampy Biography Contest
Who is your main character? Ampy wants to know. I thought it would be a fun Idea to have a little biography contest to see what you Ampers can come up with. Ampy wants you to write an autobiography for your character letting us know who they are from the point of view of your character. We are looking for edgy stories of how your characters came to be and why they chose to be either good or evil. If they have powers how they got them (where they born with them or were they gained from another means) and how do they use them (for good or evil). Did some dramatic event make them choose to go to the dark side or stand in the light? We want to know.
Prizes: Along with the 25pt credit, you will receive for your entry you will also get:
Grand Prize: Free Tee-shirt from the Gameamp Shop and 200pts Credit
Second Place 150pts Credit
