Staff Changes (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?action=staff)
- The Newletter Writers have two new faces joining them on a quest to inform the community about the daily life each month. Good luck to both MasterWalks and InsignificantWeeaboo on the position, and we look forward to many great things from both of you.
Tea Time with BlacksmithBelow is a portion of the interview:How did your holidays go?
Nothing to exciting really. I was at home the whole time. Celebrated christmas with my family as usual. I didn't go nuts, travel the world, sky dived or anything like that, this year at least.
An Earth Dragon, a Shrieker and an Antlion offer you a ride, which one will you take first?
First?
I'd start with the Ant, then the Shriker and save the dragon for last. I don't enjoy traveling like a mole so better get it over with. A shrieker is ok but can't be compared to a dragon. Save the best for last.
Why do you like Earth? What do you think, what are your personality traits that synergize with your Earth affinity? Is Earth your most favorite element or is it just one of them?
Earth is the most, the most versatile element in elements..........Find this answer and many more in Blacksmith's official interview (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/elements-council/featured-community-member/msg404784/#msg404784)(http://i.imgur.com/qFi1HP7.png) | (https://i.pinimg.com/originals/5d/bf/fe/5dbffedbe8e8bf89fc00228e02bb7f29.jpg)
