    UF NEWS: The news team needs you - needing reporters

    Hey everyone,

    I am sure most of you have noticed that things have started to slow down with the news team and the production of articles. This is not a case of us losing interest, it is simply a matter that we have a fairly small team of people and all of us are really busy and it is just is not realistic for us to fit in the time it can take to write up some of the articles.

    I would love to add another 3-5 people to the news team as reporters so that we can stay on top of articles and continue to produce articles consistently throughout the age.

    Requirements:

    irc
    email
    ability to do as much as you can as often as you can (we get busy as posted above, that is not something that gets you removed from the team so dont worry!!).

    If you are intested please contact me on irc #utonews or email me: mad_scottish@hotmail.com

    This is partly why new teams fail within the game folks. There are a group of people that try and keep these sort of things going but when they get busy it starts to fail because it is near on impossible to find people who want to come in and try pick up the slack while others have other things to focus on. We do have a good team and a lot of us have different things going on within the game and outside of it.

    I honestly cannot believe that out of all the people that are within the game that no one has contacted since I made this post about wanting to help write up articles.

    I have been chasing up a few other people but have yet to find them on irc to talk to them further. This is just a follow up to try and encourage people to get a bit more involved if you have the time to do so.

    Maybe some in-game highlighting will assist.

    Or maybe for each article a person writes and it's published they get 5 free credits...

    lol well it would be funny to see a dice report or a report about making a cow especialy about making a cow/bank when OOP the first week to get a bank/cow pumped with aid while you still have to manage your own province it very hard for the kd.

    So would maybe be nice for next age? :)
