Hello Witches and Wizards!

Finally, the judging period has come to a close for the Summer Visual Arts Competition! There were so many incredibly talented artists who submitted pieces and choosing the top 3 winners was no easy feat. As a special thanks for entering, we’ve decided to award all participants 100 Potter Points!

Without further ado, the winners!
1st Place: Prin_ce

2nd Place: fleurtje0726

3rd Place: RainbowElfe

But that’s not all...

House Points have also been given to all participants based on how many people of each house entered! Here’s the final scoring.

Congratulations to you all! Your respective Potter Points have been awarded for you to use in-game & HP will be going out shortly!

Hey everyone!

We’re super excited to announce that EricaEH has become the new Head of Community Management! There is no one else I would want to have this title. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with her, and I know that CM is in safe hands. I’m super proud of how far she’s come, and how hard she’s worked. Congratulations Erica!

With this, I will be moving into a co-head position where I’ll be heading the Technology & Development department along with Alexis. While leading the department will be a mutual effort, Alexis will be focusing on leading the Ground Keepers whereas I will be focusing on leading the developers. Everything in-between will be led collectively.

Here’s a quick reminder of the roles in tech & dev.

• Developers (these are the people who writes code)
• Engineers (these are the people who do work that is similar to coding, but not actual coding. This can for example be config work, like Magic & Mobs, etc.)
• Ground Keepers (these are the people who help test and make sure everything is working the way it should).

Alexis has been working on restructuring the department, and the restructure is nearly done! We hope to release more information on the restructure soon.

This certainly is a weird change after having founded the CM department and led it for more than a year, but it’s a new chapter for myself which I’m excited for!

Thank you everyone!

Congratulations to @PotatoEmma on becoming our newest Head of Build! She will be co-heading the department alongside me(@RobotWizz ).

Emma is the kindest, most hard-working and determined person I know and she has gone above and beyond in her role as my Assistant for over a year! I know for a fact she will continue to shine with her new role as Head of Build, and I cannot wait to join her in that adventure.

Gefeliciteerd Emma!
