TW Public Relations #1 (10 /8/12)
My Fellow Spaceship Pilots:
As you probably know, there has been a communication gap between the players and the staff of this zone. Today I'm happy to report that, as a result of a recent staff meeting, a new staff department has been made to help fill this gap. That's right, I'm now the head of Trench Wars Staff Public Relations! Assisting me are K A N E <ZH> and Reckful. I do see this as a way to genuinely improve this zone by keeping the players better informed and therefore (hopefully) more understanding and appreciative of the work staff is doing in this game. That being said, my plan is to post an update like this one every two weeks starting now. They will cover as much as possible. Complete coverage will not be possible unless you, the players, give me feedback! So, if there is something you would like to know more about that isn't covered in these posts, please bring it to my attention. I play this almost every day, so if you have any questions or concerns you can pm me or ?message me and I'll get back to you ASAP.
One more thing before we get to the updates. While this thread should be viewed by everyone who wants to know what's happening, I can't guarantee that your suggestions will be considered here. Not to be rude, but your ideas belong in the Public Suggestion Box, not here. I encourage use of this thread for discussion of the weeks' events. Spamming is discouraged. This thread is for your benefit, treat it with some class.
Now, to coverage:

Now, what I've been building up to
Advertising
This is one of the most exciting developments in recent Trench Wars history. Thanks to extraordinary hard work be Hack and 24, we are attracting new players to the game! At the moment, the advertising funds are being put towards advertising on one site, 420chan.org . In addition to that, a large amount of work is being put into the analytics of advertising, such as tracking of new player activity. More on that later (when we'll have more information too!) And in case you are curious about the results of the advertising, this is a nifty live link tracking the amount of new players that play from month to month. Let's all give a big round of applause to Hack and 24 for turning that number around!
A quick personal note: this advertising effort is doing real work to help make this game survive, but we need your help. Take the time to make a new guy feel welcome and maybe he'll decide to play this game more and we'll be able to add another number to our ranks.
Also, like us on Facebook! This Facebook will be updated almost every day with various information about what's going on in the trenches.
That's all I have for now. Since this is a new position, we don't have much to work off of. Feel free to contact me with any more questions. Now, discuss!
