The Fall Moderator Elections
The Community Moderator Elections were supposed to continue as usual this September, but were postponed until October. Still further news is still be released on the 14th of October. Why was it postponed? The Scratch Team at MIT decided to change the rules of the Moderator program. The user running for the position now must be 14 years of age or more to qualify! Unsurprisingly this has had a large impact on the Forum Community. A fair 75% of the users who were going to run have now been knocked out of the elections. Thankfully, many Scratchers took the change maturely and have coped well; but was it the right decision?
What's happening in Collabs
This editions Forum spotlight is Collabs! Here's a chance to get all the new Collaboration's, groups that are new featured. XplodingEggs has started up a Collaboration for a Tower Defence game, and is in need of help of some users who are well suited to drawing sprites! They're not the newest, but Old Town Productions have been making their mark recently! RocksAndFire has made a successful game and has a large Collab with many members! Do you enjoy making collabs?
User Spotlight: 08jackt
Our chosen user for the spotlight today is 08jackt. He's made a huge mark on the front page with all his projects that have tumbled onto his profile - including A[Faction] and ProjectMaxxine. He has a successful string of OS's, called SynOS. There are now six of them after he released a whole load of projects in quick periods of each other. Thanks for reading this edition - the other should be out sometime soon. Please comment!
