"I'm happy to have joined the Mata Nui Weekly team! Interaction's picked up over these last couple of weeks, what with the party and the Piraka attack, and Kentoku is the topic I most reliably follow, so I've picked either the best or the worst time to join, depending on the point of view... Anyway, I look forward to delivering to you the exciting news that will undoubtedly come from the Archipelago in future weeks!" ~Ghosthands

"I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to the arc of my flaghsip character, Ferron. Toatapio, Shadowhawk, Alex Turner, Gravity and Kughii. Thanks again to you all and best wishes for the RPG's future." ~Geardirector

"The MNW is proud to welcome Ghosthands aboard our little bobbing vessel in the ocean of information. He'll be responsible for towing the line in the Kentoku Archipelago, which brings a wave of relief as he applies his scientific skills to creating reproducible, highest quality blurbs for the News section. On a personal note I have begun my exodus from this glorious game, but I do plan to stick around until the end of the 2013 arc, possibly carrying one PC into the future. What does this mean for the MNW? At the moment, nothing! You'll still be getting your favorite OOC newsletter delivered to your N&D topic each week." ~Kughii
