Well, here we are again. The ZSB is running a World Cup, and I've been asked to make it happen on The Zend. The only difference between this time and last time is that I actually had the free time AND motivation to make it happen in a sort of timely manner.

And boy oh boy, do we have a treat for you this time around! Instead of the normal cutthroat ZSBer vs ZSBer type contest that the World Cup usually focuses on, this World Cup is everyone's favorite game songs going head to head. We've upped the ante even more by allowing 128 entries! While this might make it a headache to sample all the different songs available, we felt it was best to truly get a good handle on what the ZSB's favorite song is.

So yeah, you can find the current World Cup at the ZSB link at the top of any page. You don't have to be a ZSBer to register or to vote in this competition, so check it out and get involved!

I've been sprucing up the CSS and layouts recently instead of getting actual work done on the coding, so sue me. Once I've satiated myself on fiddling with how everything looks, I will probably get back to work on the indepth coding. That's just how I roll, baby.

On that note, if you happen to notice any page that looks ugly as sin, you know how to reach me.

You might have noticed that there aren't any other announcements. Well, I'd have to say you're a pretty observant fellow for noticing! Basically, all the old topics from AEterus have been archived and the message boards were reset. After open registrations, I'll get the message board up and running again. Until then, enjoy the empty space.

In other news, any user with a registered Zend account can submit photos to any public photo gallery. That means that you bums who give this poor sad sack a hard time about never updating the photos can get right on doing it yourselves. What fun!
