Now, it's a typical Eyes On Community Update. Nothing unusual here right? If you noticed my name isn't Psychotic or Goldenboko then you're clearly more observant than most horror film characters. Yes! It's Formy here, and it's my job to step in the gigantic shoes of my predecessors and bring you the latest goings on in our fantastic community. No pressure then.

Quote Of The Week!
"Alright everybody, let's mosey"
That developer's blog over at SE is in overdrive recently, and to sate our appetite for the upcoming beta, they've leaked out three new songs (http://home.eyesonff.com/final-fantasy-xiv-realm-reborn/148374-new-music-leaked-final-fantasy-xiv-realm-reborn.html). Interested? Silly question, of course you are! Check the thread out when you have the time.
In other soundtrack news, Square Portal has released several new details about Lightning Return's soundtrack (http://home.eyesonff.com/lightning-returns-final-fantasy-xiii/148319-final-fantasy-xiii-lightning-returns-soundtrack-update.html), including three composers plus a unknown fourth? I wonder who it could be...
It's February almost! And depending on where you live, it's either freezing cold or the peak of Summer. Assuming you live in the southern hemisphere, now is the perfect time for the very first EoFF FanArt Contest (http://home.eyesonff.com/relms-studio/148284-eyes-final-fantasy-fanart-contest-february-2013-beach-theme.html), which in this first contest has a beach theme. Get sketching, drawing, painting, whatever and whip up some sun, sea and rays for us. Especially me, living in the UK in peak winter time...
Our fabulous new editor Lockharted has created a character spotlight (http://home.eyesonff.com/general-final-fantasy/148164-character-spotlight-rikku.html) on everyone's favourite Al Bhed, Rikku! E pad ouin toehk du caa ed!
Do you love writing, but just hate writing about the same boring topics, like love, or war? That's so 20th century! We at EoFF take a modern approach to fiction, particularly to fan-fiction! You can enter our competition to write a fan-fiction about the latest "in" topic in the writing world: Cupcakes. As long as it's FF related, anything goes! Check the thread (http://home.eyesonff.com/timber-maniacs-hq/148264-glorious-eyes-final-fantasy-fan-fiction-extravaganza.html) for full details!
I suspect you've already posted in it at least once, but the Word Association thread (http://home.eyesonff.com/wonder-square/146051-word-association-thread.html) is always active! Take a gander and associate words to your hearts content!
Deep in the caverns of Eyes on Each Other, some lively and interesting debates abound. One that's on fire at the moment is paedophiles and their thoughts and actions (http://home.eyesonff.com/eyes-each-other/148330-why-pedophiles-automatically-considered-bad-persons.html). It's very thought provoking stuff! Nothing's ever out of bounds at EoEO.
Finally, you may have noticed the inclusion of the statistics at the bottom of the forums, such as Top 5 posters, and Top 5 thread starters. Numbers are always fun, unless you hate maths. Anyway, take a look!
You might have noticed the new "Quote of the Week" feature. To make the community updates more interactive, I've included a simple yet fun FF quote guessing game. Each week, I shall post a new FF-related quote, and in the next Update I shall reveal the answer! Bragging rights and all round awesomeness are the prizes for it. :D
