''<blockquote>''Hello all! We had a great couple of months for September and October that I'm excited to share with you! |
|
<blockquote>''Hello all! Due to circumstances beyond our control, unfortunately the monthly newsletter for July had been significantly delayed to the point that when our Newsletter Committee could work on it, August was almost over. Thus we had decided to wait till August was complete and post a larger 2-Month Newsletter.'' |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some news first: a couple of our mainstays have been pulled aside to focus on things in their personal lives, but we've done our very best to keep up with Amaranth Legacy. |
|
''As such, this Newsletter will be split in two in accordance with the two months. Thanks for reading!''</blockquote> |
|
|
---- |
|
|
Hello! I'm happy to say that Amaranth Legacy has been as lively as ever in July and August! We welcomed many new faces, shared new and old lore on our site, bid farewell to [[User:MMONTAGEe|mMONTAGEe]] on his temporary leave, and more! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As well: We elected to move our Monthly Newsletter to a Bi-Monthly one in order to better track what's been done in the given time. |
|
Let's hope that September is even better! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
We're very much hoping to have an even greater November and December to book-end this incredible 10th year of the Community. Thanks to all who have spent their time with us these months!''</blockquote>'' |
