    Hello Xeno Gamers!
     
    Better late than never right! Apologies for the tardiness :)



    What's Going On?

    Minecraft is up and running! mc.xenogamers.com! Plenty of updates to come soon as well, if you have any suggestions, feel free to direct them to the proper locations! MC Discussion
    Facebook and Twitter both have contests currently for Credits, a Content Creator title, and possbily a custom badge! Information is below
    Facebook: Facebook Coverphoto Submissions Twitter: Twitter Update.. It's Happening!!
    Raffle will be drawn in under 8 days! If you haven't done it yet, click here to get started! Shadow Daggers | Urban Masked (Well Worn) | Xeno Gamers Members Only!!
    Badges are still being worked on, I take sole responsibility for the tardiness of the deployment! I will work on them asap. For suggestions: Badges Megathread!
    Reviews are still in it's development stage. If you feel like you're really good at making reviews, make sure to check out our section here! Reviews I would recommend looking at the reviews in Highlighted Reviews from @Vector and @Egossi for the amount of effort we are looking for.

    What's In The Near Future?

    New Banners on all News Posts. Self explanatory, this is also my fault for it taking so long, I will have it out next month.
    Sponsor is currently being reworked to make everyone happy. For now, I would recommend holding off on paying if you plan too, the staff want to be sure we roll out a subscription based sponsor system that is cheaper and more easily acquirable for everyone. This also means adding way more things to sponsor ranks. For anyone who is currently a sponsor, you will get rewards based on your current tiers once the system is in place.
    Youtube! If you have short clips that you think we can use (highlights alongside other xG members) than be sure to message @TheSupremePatriot and myself.

    Hello Xeno Gamers!
     
    Different format for this update, it's going to be a big one!



    What's New This Month?

    TF2 staff activity adequacy will be determined by higher ups instead of having a specific hour requirement. It is hard to be accurate and can be discouraging to members who wish to be staff if they see such a set requirement. In other words, be active if you can be as TF2 staff, but you no longer need to aim for a "minimum 18 hours" on our servers.
    Facebook Screenshots of the month will be increased from 800/1000 credits to 2000 credits a month. You can also earn other things such as custom badges for screenshots so make sure you enter! Xeno Gamers Facebook | 2017 Changes
    2 new raffles! Shadow Daggers | Urban Masked (Well Worn) | Xeno Gamers and 10 TF2 Keys | Xeno Gamers! Special thanks to @JuannabeGod for providing the knife for the giveaway!

    What's Coming Up This Month?

    Minecraft! It's been a long time coming and I believe a rushed project is a bad one, and the server is almost ready. Just want to give a special shout out to @Klure @MineCrack @jubens45 @SuperMaddud @Owl @Pepper @Hanney @Jaydow for all their hard work so far, I promise it's gonna be worth the wait!
    Custom Badges are now implemented to xG! We can customize them completely, and can only be earned. The badges that will be made are for community night winners (Hunger Games, Town of Salem, Brawlhalla etc) and for other unique individuals (for example trivia masters). I will have a thread dedicated on ideas for badges soon.
    xG Curator Page will be implemented this month. The full layout will be finished, and available to all members to review games/software. Any reviews done really well will be featured on the xG curator page, a locked section on the forums and be given credits accordingly. The reviews on the forums will also not be limited to steam games.
    Banners for News Updates + Promotions/Demotions. The banners will not be big, and should give some nice flair to our homepage. I will get the exact dimensions and make a post about how people can contribute if they'd like! Expect this in the next few weeks.

    What's Coming Up Later In The Year?

    Youtube will start getting attention once I have all my software from school! It will be open to the community for content and that will be expanded on later in the year!
    Social Media Presence will be worked on throughout the year with giveaways and community activity. If you have any ideas on improving our Facebook or Twitter, be sure to message @TheSupremePatriot or @Hanney!
    More Events and Tournaments! I just want to clarify that higher ups are not the only ones who can organize these. If you have an idea for the community, take some initiative and set it up! If it's a success we can even give you credits for organizing it.
    Sponsor-only benefits are going to be looked at and worked on throughout the year. If you want to look at what we have so far for sponsors, check it out here Sponsorship And The Reward Tiers

    I just wanna thank you guys for a great year, I've only been back since August, but I've first joined xG servers 6 years ago today. There has been serious progress since I've returned and it definitely shows. This progress is due to the amazing work from all our staff members who constantly try to improve xG infrastructure, maintain leadership and keep servers fun. It's also due to the huge effort from everyone who has put the time in to populate our servers and constantly provide feedback on the forums and our teamspeak. We have huge plans for 2017, and I hope you guys stay for the journey. We have made it this far due to all of you, so the least we can do is to make next year a great year for all of you in return.
     
    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!
