The VMS Weekly VMS proudly presents our second Weekly Newsletter. This week we have had a loss of a great GM, BrandNewKitten has stepped down from GMship and has become a regular member once more. Magic has also suffered a loss of subtypes. Soul Contracts, Arcane Puppetry, and Ascended magic have been removed from the magic system. Even though not much has gone on in this week, we still provide some content. There is more to come next week,all suggestions and content is appreciated. Speed Art LotC Comics Art LotC Renders As a new feature, we’ve decided to do something that's been done before, but with a few changes. This would be the: Basically each week, a player will be chosen and interviewed, as well as art of their character done by one of our artists! This week’s player, is Ski_king3! Now Ski, How does it feel to be our first player of the week? I don’t know how to feel. I’m really surprised, to say the least. It’s a little weird being on the other side of these interviews. I’m also quite sleep deprived right now, so uhhhhh, I don’t feel much of anything right now. What brought you to Lotc, and what now being here has held you here? I was brought to LotC by a youtuber called PetriDaGamerNerd. He’s not really active anymore, but he had a short series of him playing on Lord of the Craft. As for what has held me here, I’d definitely say the community. Maybe that’s surprising since everyone talks about how bad the LotC community is, but there are also a lot of people I’ve met who are really cool people that I come to miss whenever I’m off LotC for too long. I suppose I could just keep in touch with those people outside of LotC, but it’s not quite the same. Plus, a great part I like about this community is providing something to it, whether it be work as a staff or crafting a group IC, and doing so in a way other people enjoy. That being said, Do you still see yourself here in Two years? In two years, I’ll be done with college and hopefully in grad school or having a job. I really hope that at that point, I’m past the Lord of the Craft chapter of my life. Has being a gm changed the way you view the server and player base? I’m sure it has, but I can’t really think of how it has. I suppose the biggest change of view is rule breaking; some seemingly minor rule breaking can look a lot more severe to GM’s when they consider all the other past bans we have logged, something the average player doesn’t think about/keep track of as well. However, I’ve spent enough time on LotC staff, including the GM team, that the way I view LotC isn’t changed much by getting a new staff position. My thoughts about the server have changed countless times, but typically they’re less to do with what staff teams I’m on and more about the larger issues faced on LotC. What do you think about the recent magics removals? Well, I am a member of the LM Team, so I obviously have to stand with the team’s decision. That being said, I will say it’s the result of a long culmination of different talks and reviews of different magic types by the LM team and, to a lesser extent, the MAT. The decision wasn’t taken lightly, we’re trying to do this in the best way we can. I think the best way to handle this is for people with strong opinions to contact the LT so we can handle this situation in the best way we can; we definitely don’t want to just leave everyone in a situation they feel is shitty and walk away without listening to feedback. What advice would you give to any new players? Don’t get too invested in LotC. It’s easy to want to better your character’s station in this virtual world and spend hours and hours each day on LotC. Unfortunately, that often leads people (especially young people) to ignore their more important responsibilities. I’ve done it, and a lot of other folks have done it. Your best bet is to try and find a good way to balance your time before you get too invested. It’ll make LotC more fun and less stressful, and will allow you to keep your real life in order. Do you have any advice to our team, as being a manager for a time on the previous Media team? I assume this refers to the unofficial media team that’s formed in the wake of the MT’s removal. To y’all, the best I have to say is good luck. You guys will need to deliver a lot of good content to earn respect and create a culture that will persist as individuals in the group pass on. I hope y’all do good, and wish you the best of luck! Thanks Ski!

The Media Team did and does something good with media stuff... The media team did well when they had the right people leading. We hope to keep good leadership and produce content often. We invite Media Team to talk to us and maybe even we can help each other out

It is difficult to get word out at times, that is why we are trying all social mediums we can. Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Deviantart, and youtube. The team is already under way with some content, but it is a slow start. We will be PMing applicants within the week.

We are also open to suggestions as to what the community would like to see. With our websites slowly gaining content, we would love to see what the community wants showcased, created, or done

We are looking for members and we love getting content from the community. Our first new content should be out within the next week. Keep a lookout!

Greetings Lord of the Craft. We are the Virtual Media Studios, or VMS for short. We are a player run group comprised of artists, video makers, and writers. The loss of the Media Team has sparked us to step forward and create content for you all. We have plans to bring content to both the community and potential new players through screenshots, videos, artwork, and much more. Objectives Our objective is to bring content at least monthly to the community in either video form, newsletter, or contests. Our goal is to become a weekly thing, but between school, work, and social lives, we must make room to allow for some creative time. Samples of Our Work We have a small team currently that can create content for the community. Video Artwork Written Items Screenshots How You Can Join We are looking for members to join our team. We will be expanding our group to make sure content is created in a timely matter. We will be PMing those who fill out an application within the next two weeks to let you know if you have been selected. Application can be found HERE Don’t Wish to Join Even if you don’t wish to join but still want to help, you can send us a PM of your work to be showcased on the newsletters. While we can not showcase all work on the newsletter, all screenshots, original writing, videos, and artwork will be showcased on our VMS Tumblr, Facebook, Youtube, and Website. Just shoot us a PM with your MC Name, description of your piece, and your submission. Follow Us
