Well, not really many changes.

The biggest new addition is the YWS arcade, which will have lots more games added soon. Each game will cost you fifty points.

The points system is also being tweaked. From now on...

- Each new topic will get you only a minimum of 10 points.
- Each character in a post/topic will get you .2 points. So for a reply to get the maximum of 50 points, it'll have to be about 60 words long.

Points can be earned in:
- Every forum under "Literary Forums" and "Usergroups"
- The Research and Homework Help forums

Points can also be earned by participating in contests and helping new users.


Also, new forums have been added.
- Research
- Homework Help
- Historical Fiction
- More coming soon!

Um... if it's only 10 points how can it reach up to 50?
OOH NATE MADE A MISTAKE!

No he didn't. He's stating that you can get anywhere from 10-50 points.

:D

More forums will be added soon...

Also, more games are coming! Unfortunately, the site I have to get them from (phpbb-amod.com) is undergoing maintenance for the moment. Wish I had downloaded more than just the three when I was installing the arcade.

I love historical fiction, can't write it very well (get the history mixed up) but I love to read!
