Today, I received an e-mail from a psychology researcher for the University of Queensland, Australia conducting a study on social aspects of online game play such as how people adjust to playing a new game and how they come to identify with their new character.
First of all, I'd like to welcome [[User:Arkenor|Arkenor]] aboard as the first site co-admin.  He's been an invaluable member of the wiki, having contributed and edited several articles, and even catching a couple of vandalism attempts.


He is seeking respondants to a short survey (approximately ten minutes).  To encourage players to take part, they are offering 12 free months of gameplay to one randomly selected participant.  If you are interested in taking the survey and entering the drawing, visit the [http://www.psy.uq.edu.au/webq/public/survey.php?name=City_of_Villains_Survey survey site].  I've also added a site link on the left in the "links" list.

This Monday, November 28, I am going to run some routine maintenance on the ''Paragon City Free Press'' site, including the wiki, beginning at 2:00am EST (7:00am GMT).  During this time I will be backing everything up, shuffling a bunch of stuff around, and optimizing the databases.  I hope to be done by 6:00am EST (11:00am GMT).  Hopefully, it won't take that long, but I can't swear that it won't take a little longer.

==== Map Patch v0.4 Released ====


I've updated the [{{CoVMapPatchLatest}} downloadable in-game maps] to version 0.4.  There were a few minor additions and an icon added to aid in getting the [[Sweet Tooth Badge]] in Cap au Diable.  Currently, only the big four maps are included (Breakout, Mercy Island, Port Oakes, and Cap au Diable) plus Bloody Bay, but very soon I plan on releasing version 1.0, which will include all known information about all city zones.  Stay tuned!

==== Go-Live! ====


The City of Villains beta and head start is over, and the game is now officially live for the general public.
He is seeking respondants to a short survey (approximately ten minutes).  To encourage players to take part, they are offering 12 free months of gameplay to one randomly selected participant.  If you are interested in taking the survey and entering the drawing, visit the [http://www.psy.uq.edu.au/webq/public/survey.php?name=City_of_Villains_Survey survey site].  I've also added a site link on the left in the "links" list.
 
==== A shorter URL ====
 
I have added '''<nowiki>http://wiki.pcfreepress.com</nowiki>''' to be redirected to this site. This may make it a little easier to give the URL out in-game. The old URL of '''<nowiki>http://www.pcfreepress.com/wiki</nowiki>''' will continue to work as well, in case anyone has the site bookmarked.
 
==== Please direct people to this site ====
 
Speaking of giving out the URL in-game, if you find this wiki useful, please refer people to it in-game.  I don't derive any financial profit from raising traffic at the site (in fact, it could eventually end up costing me a little more money if throngs of people flock here), but as a stereotypical geek, it makes me all warm and gooey inside when I see good numbers of visitors each month coming to see what's here.
 
==== News Archive Added ====


The news section was just plain getting too long.  I have added a [[Archived News]] page to save these items in.  I will leave the latest one or two things here.
