It’s time to announce FallFest ’14!

Fall festival ongoingworlds squid logoEarlier this month, we asked the community for applications to host and chair this year’s FallFest.  The competition was fierce, but one team stood out above the rest.  It gives me great pleasure to announce that Misty Taylor will chair the 4th Simming Fall Festival, and her club, Phoenix Roleplaying, will serve as the host organization.  Congrats to Misty and everyone at Phoenix Roleplaying!  It’s a great honor to host the premier simming and online role playing event of the year.  For a few short hours, the entire community will circle around Phoenix and everything they have to offer us.  Indeed, it’s been one heck of a year for Phoenix.
