Tuesday, April 29, 2002 Hey, it's yer favorite webmaster here. I'm just here to remind you that we have a talk-to-the-staff fun time variety hour tomorow at 8 o'clock Central time. It will be held in our chat room which can be accessed through the Kokiri Village section of the site. I'll be there and I'm inviting all of you and all the staff to attend. We'll be discussing TML's announcement and anything else you want to know. See yathere! ~Gandalf The Grey Friday, April 26, 2002 OK! I've done a LITTLE sprucing up, nothing to go into a frenzie over. I just fixed the Staff profiles and Contacts page. If you want to get in contact with our Literature Director, just check out the contacts page! OR, you could use the link on the Fanfic page to get in contact with him. I'll be back with more to say and maybe a better update soon! You do deserve a decent update some time... - Link Masaki
Wednesday, April 24, 2002 Well, I had a little extra time this evening, so I put another article into the Hyrule News section. Also, I'm announcing that we're going to have a "talk to the staff" press-conference type of thing in our site chat room (which can be accessed through the Kokiri Village section). I'd like as many of the viewers and staff to attend on Tuesday at 8 o'clock Central Time. Hope to see ya there. We'll be discussing topics from TML's step-down to my own cynical old man views. ~Gandalf The Grey Tuesday, April 23, 2002 Update- I know that many of you haven't been able to get your editorials to the right place. Well, the contacts page has been updated and you can contact our secretary Holyknight at any time. For those of you who have sent editorials to me, they WILL be posted, do not worry. Note to entire TGA staff, please report in. Konichiwa, I've got two articles up today. Why not go check them out? They should be interesting reads. I'll be back with more stuff soon! - Link Masaki
Friday, April 21, 2002 Konichiwa! I've got a small update here. It's an article by Vyctori. You can check it out in the Hyrule News section. Ja mata ne! Link Masaki
Friday, April 19, 2002 Konichiwa! I've done a little editing and fixed the contacts page among a few other small changes. I'll eventually switch the music currently playing on TGA. Until next time, ja mata ne! Link Masaki - Editor
Friday, April 19, 2002 You know it's ironic that, as soon as I say I'm not webmastering anymore, I get time to update. Funny that. Anyways, I'm making up for all the work that I didn't do in March and early April. The affiliates list is updated, and there are several changes. All of the broken links are finally gone, and we've got some newcomers to the Top 5 Affiliates, one of them that hasn't even been on the charts before. (Let's just say I was that impressed!) So do visit our affiliates. After all, we're all working together. :) Lastly, I want to clear up some confusion. I am not leaving TGA. It seems that Ganondorf, my enemy has been spreading rumours around about me. I am just not webmastering. Actually, I will be keeping very close track of Gandalf, as I believe my "official position" right now is Writer/Advisor, but it might get changed to some other cute title in the near future. But don't worry, I'm not gone. Just more behind the scenes than I used to. After all, I am the Missing Link now, aren't I? ;) One last thing. I know I have been horrible about E-mail correspondence in the past month. I'm getting rid of most of the really old E-mails in my folder (yes, I still have them all in my Inbox!), just to make space for new. If you still want me to answer questions, please feel free to E-mail me again, and I'll try to do better this time around. ;) ~
The Missing Link Thursday, April 18, 2002 Konbanwa! Ogenki des ka? This is Link Masaki here! Thought I was gone, didn't you? Well, couldn't be more wrong! I'm still here and I'm currently the "Editor". Those of you may not be surprised if you've seen the TGA Staff list any time soon. I'm sort of taking over TML's major position. But it's not entirely confirmed about that. I'll be sure to let you guys know more when I figure this out completely! At any rate, I'll be fixing some of the minor mistakes here and there that you may have noticed on TGA. I'll keep you guys informed, same with TML and the rest. ^_~ Bear with us while we get things settled and sorted! Domo! Questions? Comments? E-mail me! Link Masaki - Editor
Thursday, April 18, 2002 I've got some rather bad news. Most of you won't like hearing it, and most of you will send me zillions of E-mails concerning this, but regardless, it must be said. I am resigning my position as webmaster of The Grand Adventures. The decision has been weighing on my mind the past several weeks, and I've told very few people about it. Even Gandalf, my cowebmaster, won't know about it until he reads this. My reasons are few, but they are quite weighty. The biggest one is that, as you look down the page, you'll see how few updates I've made recently. In addition, I've got E-mail from last month from TGA visitors that I still haven't answered. Life has gotten too busy for me to keep on at the pace I'm going. The main culprit is that I'm spending much more of my time in the "IRL" world rather than the "URL" world. As a result, my time to dedicate to TGA has faded, and with that, the frequency of the updates I should be committing. I will remain on staff for the time being, trying to get control over the areas that I have: the art gallery, the fan music, the fanpoetry, David Linkerman, and the Say What. As far as the Book of Mudora, I do intend on finishing it, but before I can finish it, I must give away the tasks that have taken up my TGA time so I can settle down to become a writer once again and finish the task I have started. I also have another task planned for TGA that I would like to perform under Gandalf, but like the Book of Mudora, I need to free up what time I do have from TGA to manage it. If all goes well, you will definitely hear about this in the future. :) I've almost seen TGA through an entire year, and though I've done a lot, I still feel like I should have done more, especially in the past month or so. Plagued by server downtime, struggling to stay ahead in updates, and falling behind constantly, I look back and smile at my time managing this fine site. I look forward to finishing the Book of Mudora when the other parts of my "domain" are taken up by others, and when that happens, I will settle into the "lower ranks" of TGA. But until then, I'll be in the background, writing out the will, so to speak. Thank you all for the support and the E-mails. I will surely miss them. Thank you again. :) ~
The Missing Link Tuesday, April 16, 2002 Okay, I've put up the articles that I received in the last few weeks up in the Hyrule News section. Holyknight is obviously back and updating so you can send all your editorials to him from now on. In other news, it's a beautiful day outside and I'm going to go enjoy it. ~Gandalf The Grey Friday, April 12, 2002 I added a three new articles today, hope to update the Archives very soon, expect that in the very very near future. Send in all your articles! ~ Holyknight I added a three new articles today, hope to update the Archives very soon, expect that in the very very near future. Send in all your articles! ~ Holyknight Monday, April 8, 2002 Three quick things. First off, a new David Linkerman is up and ready to go for all of you comedians out there to help us with. Second, of a more "behind the scenes" nature, the fanart gallery is finally remodeled to make it easier to update, but I might have missed something; if you find a broken link, do let me know. Lastly, The Ancient Zodiak wishes to tell you that his contest closing date will be on April 17, leaving you just ten days to enter the contest. You can find more details on the Fan Game page. I should have a bigger update later this week, but for now, I'll leave it at that. :) ~
The Missing Link Thursday, April 4, 2002 Whee! Despite my horribly busy schedule and slightly irregular heart (don't ask) I've written you another Zelda Daily Digest. This one is even related to Zelda! It's way down there at the bottom of the page. Also, remember that I have a new e-mail address. I'm eager to hear from you all again. ~ Gandalf The Grey |
