Created in October of 2020, the WizNewsletter serves as a way for students and staff to recap on the month's updates. WizNetworkers spend countless hours researching, writing, editing, and implementing each section so that the happenings of the wizarding world do not go unnoticed. Let’s get into the news from the past month!

Scribe Team Changes

  • 740

Hello everyone!

The Community Management department wanted to update you all with some of the changes we have made within the Scribe team.

We have made the decision to combine the roles of Scribe Intern and Scribe Publisher in order to increase the efficiency, quality and overall amount of content we put out for the wiki. So, what does this mean exactly? Well, originally the role of Scribe Intern was mainly responsible for writing pages while Scribe Publishers were in charge of editing and implementing content to the actual wiki. As far as the Potterworld wiki goes, you should not notice a visual change at all. If anything, you will probably just be seeing an increase of the content and pages available.

This new role will remain being called Scribe Publisher, however, every member of the team now is responsible for both writing pages as well as implementing the content onto the wiki. Unfortunately, with these team changes, the Scribe team will be shifting from player applications to being staff-only. We are unsure if this will be a permanent change or if we will open applications back up to players in the future. However, as of right now, the Scribe team is staff-only.

Thank you so much for all the support you have given to the wiki, and we are super excited to hopefully produce more content overall because of these changes. If you have any questions or would like to inquire further about this, please reach out to the Lead Scribe (Grace#0003).

Gameplay Update 1.8.3 [January 16th 2023]

Hello everyone! The Game Designer Team has prepared another mid-update patch for you all, filled with plenty of surprises!

The Victory Point
The Victory Point is officially open, located in Tristmoor! You can now buy multiple different kinds of dice for roleplay uses, as well as a few Wizarding History themed enchanted minifigures (Which Prim Katan now brags are 99% stable!). Who knows what other secrets Prim may have in store for the future...

Shop Competition Thoughts
The Game Design Team quite liked the Shop Competition and we loved the community feedback. It was a different kind of community event, and something we'd like to continue in various forms in the future, not just for shops, but other votes as well.

Hey everyone,
A new year has started, and with it, a new round of maps rotation arrives!

Every three months, minigame maps will rotate around - you may expect maps to rotate during July, October, January, and April! This means that some maps will be disabled for certain time periods to allow others to shine. Additionally, special-themed maps, such as event maps, will be accessible for the duration of the respective events and not be part of the rotations.

We hope you all enjoy this update the build team prepared for you!

Hello everyone! The Game Designer Team has prepared another mid-update patch for you all, filled with plenty of surprises!

Woodshire Pre-Release
Something is happening... the world is changing... and soon, the British Isles will be forever changed once more.
The first part of our Woodshire Pre-Release is now available to play. Over the coming weeks, more clues, hints, and puzzles regarding the true nature of Woodshire shall reveal themselves, so be on the lookout for those!

  • NEW A Puzzling Patient Quest! [Lvl. 51]
Changed Content
  • Signum Revamp
    • We've revamped the use of the spell "Signum" so that you can now cast in in mazes, and you will flee the maze, which brings this closer in line with the intention of the spell. Any maze that has this feature will be marked with a hologram that says "Cast Signum to leave!".
Upcoming Content
  • We'll be providing more information on this at a later date, but as we move into 2023, we want to ensure we provide greater opportunities to create more content in this next year. More information on this soon!
