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!

A dedicated, passionate, and knowledgeable team member, it’s no wonder we’re congratulating Harrison (Teheeo) on his promotion to Head of Technology & Development! Harrison has been a valuable part of the department, and in his new role, he’ll continue to maintain the standards of Potterworld’s tech, bug squashing, and suggestion management. We’d like to thank Alexis (Alexstrasza14) for all of her wonderful work as Head, and we can’t wait to see what Harrison accomplishes in this new role! Make sure to congratulate him next time you see him!
The Store Team was thrilled to present the annual Black Friday store sale, featuring a 50% discount on almost all of our cosmetic items! Need to renew your Drooble's Order subscription? Or maybe the sale will entice you to customize your wand, broom, and other items to be the most stylish person on the server! Keep in mind that the New Releases category does not apply to this sale, nor do purchases from the Potter Points store. The sale ends on December 2nd, so get your shop on before it leaves!
