Welcome back! Congratulations to all those who have made it this far! We have been really impressed by you all so far. You've made it to the final fourteen and for good reason! We're glad you all decided to join
Now onto the task:
As you know, here at Eyes on Final Fantasy we have been trying to integrate the frontsite with the forums and it's community. It's been an arduous undertaking but we're starting to make some headway in it. While we are interested in you moderating our forums, we're also interested in having you help up with the frontsite when we need it! And we need it lately. In round three you will be able to show us your ability to help the frontsite.
You need to create a piece for the frontsite. Be it news, an article about characters/places/battle systems/etc, countdowns, an amusing critique on cloud's hair, anything really, or even help with the XIII-2 section, we want it! Now, Here's where you can rampage through the mog house general section. We don't want anyone to have the same type of article. We don't want two Kefka articles or two "moogles are super awesome omg" articles. You must work with your remaining competitors to not duplicate anything. Because of this though, you may also be able to work WITH your competitors. Possibly something to celebrate the 25th? A Reoccurring series of articles maybe? Anything as long as it's not duplicated. Heck if there is a news article I haven't posted, write one up and i'll post it!
We want a CK who can mod first and foremost but also one that can help with the editors. You never know, you may not win as a CK in the competition but you might win as an Editor! Show us that you really want to be part of EoFF's Future!
Don't be stingy either! One thing we do ask of each other in staff, Ck and Editor alike, is to edit each others articles. It helps us produce the best article. Don't be afraid to ask for help or be willing to help anyone else! In fact we encourage it.
There isn't too many specific rules on the article itself. Don't write anything vulgar, make sure it's not a wall of text (We don't want to scare off readers) which means format it, and try to get at least 2-3 paragraphs. One picture is great but if you feel like adding more don't overload the thing. I only ask for a finished article PM'd to me by monday night!
As for your mog blogs, we want a new thread! Titled 3 of course. This time we would like you to give us your opinion about the frontsite. Do you look at it? What would make you look at it if you don't? What would you like to see? What would you want to try to implement if you were made part of staff? Etc! It's a work in progress and we would love to hear what you think would help us move forward. We want you to post your thoughts about the current round in the mog blog as well OF COURSE.
Good Luck! Any questions I'll try to answer as soon as i'm able! You'll have til monday night!
EDIT:
Here's an example of an article that's not news done by Jiro a few months ago if you're confused on what I mean.
Here's one in a series we call "The Lore you know"
Here's a silly one I did about the best final fantasy character ever!
